Filthy Desires: A Dad's Best Friend Story 52
HAYLEY’S P.O.VI stared at the camera with the flashing red light and the knife in his hands.“This has to be some kind of joke, right?” I asked. “You’re insane, maybe even a little crazy, but you’re not stupid. You wouldn’t risk hurting me and documenting it because you know as well as I do that you’d be a dead man or you’d get to spend the rest of your life in prison.”“I covered all my tracks.”I snorted. “I sincerely doubt that because if you’re here contemplating actually killing me then you weren’t smart enough to do that.”His face burned red. I knew it was a stupid idea to antagonize the guy with the knife but it was the only idea I had. If he got pissed then he was more likely to make a mistake. Granted, he was more likely to kill me as well but I was hoping for the former. He pushed off his seat and I watched as it clattered to the ground. His hand wrapped in my hair and tugged back so hard that moisture gathered at the back of my eyes.“Listen here you little bitch,” he spa

JAKE’S P.O.VIt took looking through the past footage in the office to know that there was one girl that Hayley had been speaking to as of late. Michael pulled her file and within half an hour, we were in front of her house. For someone who worked in a very good paying firm, she lived in a fucking dump.I chose to speak to her because Michael couldn’t be trusted to be logical. I banged my fist against her door a couple of times before she finally opened it very slightly. She poked her head out and took me in from head to toe.“I’ve seen you on the news,” she said simply and I hummed. “You’re my boss’ friend.”“Yes, are you friends with Hayley?”“I wouldn’t call us friends per say, we work together. She isn’t very good at making friends although I’d like to be her friend. I could say that if we keep talking as we do then maybe we can end up being-”“Where is she?” I cut her off and she turned to me with furrowed brows.“I don’t know where she is. Why would you assume that I knew that?

HAYLEY’S P.O.VWith every passing second, my heart seemed to pound harder inside my chest. I still hadn’t heard anything from Charles but I had figured out a way to untie my hands- I just hadn’t done it yet. I didn’t want to until I had a clear cut plan.The lights turned on again and I was quick to throw my hands behind my back again. Charles walked into view but this time, he didn’t have the camera in his hands. The knife was still with him but other than that, he seemed free of any other weapons.“If you try any funny business, I will carve you open,” he warned and I rolled my eyes. If I said I wasn’t terrified, I would have been lying straight through my teeth but I managed to keep a straight face. He cut through the ties on my legs. “I’m warning you, Hayley.”“You don’t need to repeat yourself. I heard you the first time,” I drawled. “Where are we going?”“That is none of your concern. All you have to do is keep your fucking mouth shut and we will not have any problems.”He brand

HAYLEY’S P.O.VDad took me back home. While he drove, he called grandma and grandpa to tell them that I was safe but even he must have realized that I truly couldn’t stand to be around anyone at that moment. He drove in complete silence but every few seconds, he would glance over at me to make sure that I was alright.Alana was waiting for us outside the house. She rushed over to me, holding me by her side like a newborn and fussing over me. A part of me wanted to push her away but another part of me just wanted to bask in the feeling of being held and being doted on. I still couldn’t wrap my head around what happened and in all honesty and sincerity, I didn’t want to.I had killed a man.“We should go to the police,” I whispered as soon as we got into the house. I knew both Alana and dad had heard me but neither of them spoke. Alana took out a first aid kit to inspect my bruise and the bleeding from my head. “If we tell them it is self defense then-”“Don’t, please,” dad cut me off.

HAYLEY’S P.O.VI felt no urge to go to the office today but I knew I had to. I didn’t want to look suspicious if the police did come around. That was the only thing that made me drag myself out of bed. Jake must have dropped me there while I was asleep and left because he wasn’t there and I didn’t see him downstairs when I went down for breakfast.“You hid the band aid well,” Alana mused as she placed the plate of pancakes in front of me. “You don’t have to go to work today-”“I do,” I cut her off. “Just let me do this, please, Alana. I just need a quiet breakfast to get my head screwed on straight.”She pursed her lips but nodded. “If you need anything, then please, don’t be afraid to tell me.”I nodded and watched her walk away. Dad sat opposite me at the table but he said nothing. He wasn’t eating, he never did, he had an untouched mug of coffee in front of him but pretended to read something on his phone. Every few seconds, his eyes would flash over to me. I ignored it for the most

HAYLEY’S P.O.VThe officers left shortly after that. They didn’t linger on me any longer and instead chose to question some of Charles’ other friends. Sienna hadn’t said a thing about me asking her to sit in for the questioning but I honestly doubted that she was going to. Unless I gave her reason to worry, I didn’t think she would.I could barely focus on my remaining clients. Thankfully, it was easy enough to blame it on the hectic nature of the day and the fact that we just had officers crawling around our building. As soon as I was done with my last client, I made my way over to dad’s office.“Did they talk to you?” I asked and he nodded.“I’m the boss, Hayley, of course they’ll talk to me,” he gestured for me to take the seat opposite him. “They also wanted to ask about why you didn’t attend the last team building exercise.”“What did you tell them?”“That you told me didn’t want to,” he said simply.“Did they ask more?”He snorted. “Of course they asked more but I told them that

HAYLEY’S P.O.VJake texted me the moment he arrived. I offered to meet him downstairs but he claimed he wanted to do this right and wanted to speak to my dad first. I thought he was being absolutely absurd. We had already gone way past the stage of talking to my father, that was meant to come before he stuck his dick inside of me but he seemed determined so I let him do whatever he wanted.Their conversation didn’t take so long and when he walked out of the office, he didn’t seem pissed. If anything, his expression was neutral. I leaned against the door of my office watching him as he made his way over to me.“I hate the fact that we have to hide this,” he murmured as soon as he was close enough to me.“You know why we have to.”“I do,” he agreed. “But that doesn’t mean that I don’t want to pin you against the wall and kiss you senseless for everyone to watch.” Just like that, my mouth dried up. He smiled at my expression and took the bag from my hand. “Can you walk or do you need me

HAYLEY’S P.O.VJake didn’t bring up the topic of us again. He just focused on making dinner and we ate in silence with Katherine who was more focused on her phone than on Jake and I. It didn’t feel tense or awkward though, it just felt normal. It was vastly different from dinner with my dad which usually involved a movie but that didn’t make it any less special.I didn’t want dinner to end because I knew it would result in me having to go home. I wanted to spend the night but even I knew that this wasn’t the right time. With everything going on, we were probably going to have lots of eyes on us and the last thing I wanted to do was lead the police right to Jake’s doorstep. They didn’t know about us being together and that was how I wanted to leave it.Jake drove me home and the ride was quiet. As soon as I got into the car, I connected my phone to it and played Taylor Swift softly. The corner of his lips quirked up and I could see him mouthing some of the lyrics out of the corner of m

HAYLEY’S P.O.VGrowing up I always thought about what it would feel like to see my mother.My dad had no pictures of her, it had been a stupid fling and she never reached out to him. He could have found her if he did but he never wanted to. He told me that if I still wanted to find her when I turned eighteen then he would.I went through all the stages of grief. There was anger at the fact that she had abandoned me and never tried to come back. There was the sadness and the feeling of not being enough for my own mother. By the time I turned eighteen, I didn’t care anymore and I told my father not to bother. It had always been me and him and that was how I wanted it.Seeing the woman in front of me brought back all those feelings of anger and betrayal bubbling up to my chest“I don’t have a mother,” I said finally. “You should leave.”“Please,” she grabbed my arm. “I just want to talk. I came all the way here to find you.”“I didn’t ask you to come here,” I spat jerking my hand out of

HAYLEY’S P.O.VI sat next to my grandmother in silence.I had her hand in mine and listened to the rhythmic beeping of the machines that were hooked up to her. The doctor said that it was only a matter of time but he had given her something to help with the pain.In the midst of all this, I couldn’t get a grip on my own emotions. There was so much swirling inside of me, too many things that I couldn’t get a grip on them. I hadn’t felt this conflicted in a very long time, probably not since I was a teenager.There was anger and pain and guilt. Guilt that we had all the money in the world and I couldn’t stop this, guilt that I was so focused on my own issues that I didn’t even see that she was dying right in front of me. She came back so we could spend time with her and I barely spent any, I spent it running around with Jake and worrying about Marie and his potential child that didn’t even end up being his.I felt stupid and incredibly foolish to say the least and I hated feeling stupid
Filthy Desires: A Dad's Best Friend Story 76
HAYLEY’S P.O.VMy hands were shaking but I fisted them by my side until I got home. I needed a minute to myself to catch my breath, what I was not expecting was to find my father and Jake in the living room. They were discussing something but they immediately stopped as soon as they saw me.I was glad that they were getting along again but for fucks sake, I wished they took their business to Jake’s house because I knew that between the two of them, nothing ever went unnoticed.“We had the meeting with Marie,” Jake began as soon as he saw me. “She was pissed to say the least but-”“You should be going home,” I told Jake and his brows furrowed in confusion.I knew I was being rude but right now, I didn’t have the patience to be nice. He needed to go home because I wasn’t sure if the question from the police was mere curiosity or if it was a threat but if they were going to follow the trail then chances were that they might officially ask me who I was with and that would mean implicating
Filthy Desires: A Dad's Best Friend Story 75
HAYLEY’S P.O.VThe sound of whispers woke me up.I tried to ignore it at first but it only got more urgent and I felt the covers shift as Jake got out of bed. With a small groan, I peeled my eyes open, the room was still dark, the only source of light was from the moon that spilled in through the drawn curtains.“Are you sure?” I heard Jake ask, the urgency in his voice taking away whatever remnants of sleep were left in me.I dragged myself up into a sitting position and my eyes found Jake. He was standing with his back to me, shirtless save for the boxer briefs he wore to bed and he was pacing. That was never a good sign because Jake never paced, at least not when everything was fine.“What’s wrong?”He turned to me, almost surprised and cursed. “Go back to bed, Hayley. Don’t worry about me.”“You’re pacing like a mad man and you look like shit,” I leaned over to turn on the bedside lamp drowning the room with a soft orange glow. “What’s wrong?”“The results are in.”If I wasn’t ale

JAKE’S P.O.VThe bottle of whiskey almost seemed to mock me as it sat on my dining table.A few years ago, I would have drank the entire bottle until I forgot everything and taken the first plane out of the city- maybe even the country. I had a knack for running away from my problems. It was what I did when Marie left me for the first time. I was living in California at the time and I got on the first place to London.I stayed there for a few weeks and by the time I returned, I packed everything up and moved to Las Vegas. I moved around a few times before finally deciding on New York because I remembered that Michael stayed here.Now, however, there was nowhere for me to run. It wasn’t because I couldn’t, I had too much to leave here. I could always leave the office and go to one of the many branches over the country so it wasn’t about work, but I had Hayley. I wasn’t completely sure if I had her, she seemed ready to run but I couldn’t blame her.I had to leave her in bed this morning
Filthy Desires: A Dad's Best Friend Story 73
HAYLEY’S P.O.VI woke up with the knowledge that someone was in my room.I didn’t know who it was but there was a feeling at the back of my neck that alerted me to the fact that I was being watched. I couldn’t brush it off no matter how hard I tried so I reached out for the nightlight and turned it on casting the room in a warm orange glow. I found the person staring at me seated right opposite my bed.I glanced over at the clock beside me. It read one thirty a.m. “How long have you been here?”“In your room or in your house?” Jake asked not missing a beat.To his credit, he didn’t seem to be drunk but then again, he never drank that much. Even if he did drink at whatever time he arrived here first, chances were that the alcohol was already out of his system and he was sober.“My house,” I responded to his earlier question.“Eleven.”“My room?”“Twelve.”I raised a brow. I wondered how I didn’t realize he was here earlier. I was the kind o child who woke up the minute someone opened m

HAYLEY’S P.O.VIt was amusing how many people were interested in my love life.I tried to keep my head screwed on straight, tried to focus on making my day run as smoothly as possible but everyone else had other plans. Everyone had an opinion about my relationship, even my clients would allude to it during our meetings. I tried to keep everything as professional as possible but by lunch, I was tired.As usual, Jake sent me lunch and Sienna brought it up for me. I had no idea why she chose to act like my personal assistant but I wasn’t complaining because I truly didn’t want to leave my office and face the crowd. It had little to do with fear and more to do with the fact that if I did and someone said the wrong thing, I was going to snap.“You can sit here if you want,” I told Sienna and her eyes widened in surprise. “Stop staring at me like you just won the lottery.”“I don’t know if you’ve noticed, Hayley, but you are not exactly a people person. You don’t invite people into your off
Filthy Desires: A Dad's Best Friend Story 71
HAYLEY’S P.O.VMy father was in my boyfriend’s living room.It took me longer than it should have it process what I was seeing because for a full minute, I just stood there staring and wondering if what I was seeing was an apparition or a figment of my imagination.Dad was in a tailored suit and he sat at the counter with Jake. They were looking over the files together and I just stood there watching until I felt a warm hand on my shoulder. Kate handed me a mug of steaming hot coffee with a smile.“You look like you’ll need that,” she whispered and I couldn’t help but laugh. I did need it.The sound caught my father’s attention and he turned to me with a smile. He walked over to me and placed a soft kiss on my forehead. I was suddenly so grateful that I decided to put on something before coming down. It would have been incredibly distasteful for my father to see me in nothing but Jake’s shirt.“Did you bring clothes for me?” I asked and his brows furrowed in confusion. “Work clothes,
Filthy Desires: A Dad's Best Friend Story 70
HAYLEY’S P.O.V“Hayley,” I heard Jake call my name but his voice sounded like a buzzing in my ears.I could hear my father speaking but I couldn’t make out his words. My eyes were completely fixed on the words on my screen. I knew it was Marie, it had to be her. No one else could have leaked the news to the press in record time.I wasn’t sure whether to be pissed or impressed. I had grossly underestimated her and that was my mistake. She was a cunning individual and I wish I had thought about that before I pissed her off and became her number one enemy.A warm hand settled on my shoulder and I nearly jumped. Jake looked pissed but also sad at the same time. He watched me with a fear in his eyes as if he thought I was going to run away and leave him. I could tell he wanted to do more than just touch my shoulder but he was holding back for my benefit.“She’s smart, I’ll give her that,” I said finally and I could see everyone’s faces twist with confusion. I lifted my phone to my ear and
