Darkest Desires CHAPTER 32
VLADIMIR "Huh?" she confusedly asks. "Why would I go to therapy?" "Why won't you?" I muttered. "Aren't you supposed to be the one to go through therapy?!" she exclaimed after a while. What the hell is she talking about?! "Are you kidding me?!" I snapped. I'm trying to fucking help her and this is how she would react? "I'm not," she insisted. She looked and sounded serious. Why on earth would she think I needed therapy? "Whatever," I hissed. "I'm not asking you. I have already booked an appointment for you tomorrow morning." "What?!" her eyes widened. "But why?!" Seriously? I stared at her. Do I really have to explain it? I facepalmed while heaving a deep breath to stop myself from breathing fire on her. I keep reminding myself to go easy on her but she makes it so hard for me to do so! When I saw her having a panic attack that night, I was already sure that she needed therapy. She was like a puzzle that I suddenly figured out. Even the way she was lusting over me and kept i

VLADIMIRThe more I read, the harder my blood boils. I could just imagine how a girl would feel in a place like that. It would have been comparable to an angel banished into the darkest pits of hell.She was immediately thrown into the wolves the first night she got there. The ring was eager to get their money's worth, which is par for the course. I should know that.Why do I suddenly question how things work in my world?After a year, she tried to escape. She was auctioned that night. The winning bidder could take her home for a couple of days. She took her chances but it didn't go well.She was caught.Victor Rodriguez. That is the name of the man who won the bid.After the ring severely punished her after being caught, they returned her to that man. My jaw clenched.How my private investigator knew the details of how she was punished was impressive. But the severity of the torture she went through made me see red."Fuck them," I hissed.My hands weren't clean. They were also staine

YVONNEWe were arguing.But how did we end up like this again?Ah, I remember. I must have provoked him too well.I was just trying to help him but he had the audacity to insult me. I retaliated, thinking I should hit him where it hurt the most. If I had to crush his precious ego just to make him do what he needed to, then so be it.He harshly grabbed my face. Then, his tongue plundered harshly inside my mouth. Instead of pushing him away, I closed my eyes and let him ravish my lips.My head spun due to the sudden waves of sensations that hit me when his kisses turned even bolder, fiercer. I suddenly felt light-headed.I fell back with the intensity of his blustering kisses. A loud thud echoed in the room as my back slammed to the wall but none of us cared.Thoughts about the doctor's appointment vanished into thin air. All I could care about was the sensations he was giving me.I gladly accepted him and responded to his kisses with the same intense passion. I even parted my lips wide

"Where is it?!" I snapped.He had a bored expression on his face but it quickly changed when he looked at me. He stared at me with a heated gaze, making me realize that I was still naked.Damn it. How could I forget?I went to his walk-in closet, ignoring him as he yelled behind me."Get out before I drag your ass out of here!"I just shrugged. I grabbed one of his shirts and quickly put it on. I can't go back to my room."Sorry, but I think I'm the one who will drag you out," I told him while carrying the first aid kit I found in his bathroom."You won't give up, would you?" he snorted."Oh, I won't," I smirked at him before plopping on his bed, in front of him. "Now, let me see."He tried to pull his hand away but I quickly caught it. I glared at him before checking his wound. It looked nasty. Who in their right mind will make a punching bag out of a concrete wall?But oh well, at least he never thought of punching me instead. I was right in front of him!I laid his hand on my lap.

I don't know how I can share my life with someone. I never once talked about it. Not even with the girls I was with in the ring. It was depressing to tell and hear stories similar to mine.She's a doctor. A professional. She does this for a living. She's practically a stranger. Would it be easier to tell her about my dark past? "How about you tell me something about yourself first?" the doctor, Linda Chapin, gently prodded.I gulped."Relax. There are no right or wrong answers. You can tell me what you're comfortable with," she added.I took a deep breath. I leaned my back on the chair, trying to calm myself down. I will just talk to her. That's no big deal."I'm Yvonne Hechtman," I stated in a low voice.My name alone evokes so many emotions inside me. I blinked rapidly to stop the tears already forming behind my lids. A hard lump seemed to form in my throat, making it harder for me to speak.I gulped in a lungful of air to clear my restricted airway. I can do this, I kept chanting i

YVONNE "I want you to stay here," he repeats then turns to the doctor. "It's okay, isn't it?" he asked but his tone suggested otherwise. It sounded like the doctor didn't have a choice but to obey him. "Of course," Dr. Linda motioned to the couch. "Take a seat."She didn't look intimidated by Vladimir. Or maybe she was just an expert in concealing her emotions. After all, that's her specialization.Vladimir pulled me with him. He kept holding my hand even while we were sitting in front of the doctor. I shifted in my seat. Why do I even feel more anxious when it is his turn now? I bit my lip. I was the adamant one he took this session. But why do I feel like I didn't have the guts to stay and listen to whatever it is he is about to say? Why does he even want me here?! Vladimir frowned at me. I smiled sheepishly and tried to stay still beside him, leaving enough space between us but he pulled me until our bodies collided. I can see a ghost of a smile on the doctor's lips while wa

YVONNEI am so disappointed.I thought I won when I finally convinced him to have therapy with me but it turned out to be futile. Well, what else do I expect from a stubborn man like him?If anything, at least I knew he wasn't born with that condition. He said it began sometime four or five years ago. What could have happened to him during that time?Did he get into an accident? Surely it will be all over the news, right? I would have read about it when I researched about him on the internet. Unless he intentionally removed it.He's rich and powerful. I'm sure that is something he could easily do."Cora," I called my assistant."Yes?" she turned to look at me. I stared at her for a while, thinking how I could ask without her thinking I was weird."Uhm, do you know Vladimir's hobbies?" I asked. I decided to beat around the bush."Hobbies?" she echoed."Yeah, you know," I shrugged. "Maybe a sport or something. I know he likes diving but I want something we can bond over.""Why don't you

Why didn't we use this instead?I prefer this design. It looked more elegant. I thought as I stared at the rings stacked on my finger. Mine was just a simple band with a single diamond embedded in the middle. Vladimir's is the same simple design without the diamond.I held my hand up to have a closer look. I like the other ring's intricate design. It looked so elegant and feminine. Is it because of the wrong size? It would have been better if he got the right size in the same design instead of getting a completely different set.Unless...My trail of thoughts stopped when I heard movements in Vladimir's bedroom. Is he home? Shit.Shit!I quickly pulled out the ring from my finger but to my dismay, it wouldn't budge. Damn it! It got stuck!"Come on!" I was already panicking.I tried to pull harder but I couldn't get it past my knuckle! I gasped when I heard approaching footsteps. He's here! Without thinking, I quickly shoved the box back to where I found it. Then I quickly closed the

VLADIMIRFucking unbelievable!I was left standing in front of the building where she lives now, staring at the slowly disappearing car of that shrink. I gritted my teeth.I had the urge to follow them and slam my car against his. I took a deep breath to calm myself down. I shook my head.It's not worth it.I went back to my car and started driving back to the city. What am I even doing here?Again?! I could keep fooling myself. I could keep on making excuses, but who am I kidding?My knuckles turned white as I gripped the steering wheel harder. I kept driving in circles, not knowing where to go. My mind is a jumbled mess. I think I know what's going on but I find it hard to swallow the truth. It can't be right.No. I can't be in love with her.Riva, she's the one I love. I mourned her for years when I thought she was gone. I never stopped loving her. She remained in my heart even after she passed."Riva?" I called her name when I got into our house. I came here after realizing I mus
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 198
YVONNE I shouldn't assume that he's here for me, should I? I sighed exasperatedly. He'd already robbed me of a good night's sleep. I won't let myself in another torture by sitting beside him in an enclosed space. I'd rather walk to the shelter! So, I pretended I didn't see him and walked straight to Phil's car but before I could reach it, I felt a hard hand grabbing my elbow. "Yvonne," Vlad grumbled behind me. "Oh!" I exclaimed when I turned to look at him. "Vlad! What are you doing here?" I should be given an award. I can say my acting is flawless, but he doesn't seem to buy it. The deep crease between his brows told me he's not taking my bullshit. "Get in," he said in a low but threatening voice while motioning to his car. "Is there a problem?" I heard Phil ask. Shit. "Uhm, sorry, Vlad," I pulled my arm away from his hold. "I already agreed to go with him." Before he could protest, I hurriedly hopped into Phil's car. He looked at me for a while before glancing at Vladimir
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 197
YVONNEWhat was that all about?Vladimir was long gone but I found myself still staring at the door he walked out of. Why is he suddenly asking about the kidnapping? And wait a damn minute, did he just tell me the woman who gave birth to me is now in jail?Did he... Did he do it for me? A tiny voice at the back of my head asked, but I quickly brushed it off, not wanting to entertain such a stupid idea."Why would he do it for me?" I muttered while taking a seat.He's clearly looking for answers for himself. That must be the reason why.It seems like Leon wasn't the only one who was after him. It wasn't surprising given his wealth and status. Not to add his underground activities. I may not know the details of that part of his life but what I'd seen was enough to conclude how dangerous that is.I sighed.The conversation with Vlad seemed to drain my energy. It kept going on inside my head like a broken record."Did I miss anything?" I asked while staring at my ceiling.I should go to s
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 196
VLADIMIRDamn it.Why does it feel like I'm missing something? It seemed like a jumbled puzzle in front of me. I could see all the pieces but couldn't figure out how to fix them.Fuck.Now, I regret coming here to ask Yvonne these questions. I could see the fear in her eyes as she tried to think about what had happened, but nothing came of it. Why did even I think of asking her in the first place?I should have known how traumatic the experience was for her. Now, it felt like opening a can of worms.I have a ton of men at my disposal. They can investigate it until I get the answers I need. It may take time, but I know we can get to the bottom of it."What is this all about?" Yvonne asked, breaking the quiet tension between us.I sighed."Nothing," I muttered. "I just wanted to make sure everything is settled before we move on with our lives."Something flashed in her eyes but it was gone before I could figure it out."I see," she nodded with a faraway look in her eyes.She looked at m

YVONNE"It's about Anne Hechter," he said.My whole body turned rigid all of a sudden. Anne Hechter...That's... She's..."I don't want anything to do with her," I almost didn't recognize my voice when I spoke."No," he sighed. "I just wanted to ask you some questions. You don't need to worry about her. She's already in jail and won't be out anytime soon.""W-what do you mean?" I confusedly asked. She's imprisoned?"She's already facing the consequences of her actions. She's being charged with human trafficking and other drug-related cases," Vladimir carefully explained while watching out for my reaction.I was dumbfounded. I didn't know how to react. His words sounded gibberish to my ears that I find it hard to process. I stared back at Vladimir while waiting for him to talk again.I don't know what's going on. Why is he suddenly interested in my... mother? The thought left a bitter taste on my tongue."Did you file the cases?" I asked.He slowly nodded as if he was scared of what my

YVONNE"The invites were already sent," Dave said.We were in the middle of a meeting regarding the nearing opening of the shelter. We had invited big names, including businessmen and even local politicians.I am excited and worried at the same time. I have high hopes for this project. I wish I could execute it the way I have always envisioned it.I wanted it to be able to help as much as we could."How about the media coverage?" I asked.At first, I didn't want it to get this much attention, but LGC's PR team reached out to me about it. Apparently, the company needed the publicity to divert people's attention from Vladimir's divorce and cheating issues.He had been seen a few times with Riva and people suspected she was the third party and the reason behind the divorce. It's not a good look. I heard the stock prices dropped significantly ever since the rumors started spreading.I don't really understand how it works, but I guess I just have to carry out the orders. Vladimir mentioned
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 193
VLADIMIR"Where have you been?" Jade asked when she saw me.I went to the warehouse after leaving the shelter. I thought I could use work as a distraction."I'd been trying to reach you for days now," she said."What's the matter?" I frowned."You need to sign these documents," she put some folders on my desk. I just glanced at them lazily. I'm not in the mood to work, but I don't want to go home either."By the way," she looked at me reluctantly. "I heard Riva was back. Are you okay? What happened?"I sighed heavily. This is the last thing I want to talk about."I'm busy," I stated dismissively.She glanced at the untouched files on my table, then looked back at me."You look like a mess," she commented.I chuckled humorlessly. I know.A knock on the door stopped me from talking back. I let whoever it is go in. Matias pushed the door open."Boss," he greeted while looking at me. He briefly glanced at Jade before looking back at me."You can go now," I told her. She looked like she wa
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 192
VLADIMIR"This project is important for the company's image right now. I can't afford to let you mess it up."What the hell am I talking about? Fucking asshole!She's right. What the fuck am I doing here? I gritted my teeth frustratingly.I stared at her as she glared at me as if she wanted to kill me. I took it as a chance to really look at her.She looked so different now. From her hair to her clothes and just her overall aura. She must have lost a few pounds. Did she do it on purpose? I don't know...Her long hair is cropped down to her chin, which shows her long, slender neck.I wanted to kiss her senselessly, to run my tongue along the sensitive skin behind her ear down to her shoulder, but I had to stop myself. Not just because we were in front of other people, but because I already lost the right to do so.I shifted on my feet uncomfortably. I can't believe I'm getting a fucking a hard-on in the middle of this argument!Fuck this.She sighed while shaking her head before walkin
Darkest Desires CHAPTER 191
YVONNEI looked at Vladimir, who seemed to be busy with something on his phone. His forehead was creased while he stared at its screen. He picked up his cup to take a sip of coffee before pressing the screen with his long fingers.My cheeks heated profusely at the sight of them lazily tapping on the keyboard. Damn. Vivid images from my dream the other day played inside my head. I gulped an imaginary lump in my throat as I tried to shake the dirty, dirty thoughts that started to pollute my mind.And here I thought I was getting better from my hypersexuality ever since I started the therapy. I sighed.I hadn't even thought about sex for a while! I had been so busy at the shelter I barely had time for myself. I'm usually dead on my feet by night, so all I want to do is sleep.Vladimir must have something to do with it. He can easily rouse the deepest, darkest desires that I thought I had completely shunned. He's really a devil in disguise! A walking temptation...Just look at him now. He
