SEBASTIAN.
I stood in the kitchen, having downed my third cup of black coffee, only because I felt it was too early for alcohol.
The sound of the door slamming closed reached my ears, and I knew she was gone.It hadn't failed to reach my realization that from the first moment she had stepped out, in those pair of jeans and a loosed blouse, the first thing she had done was to reach for her cellphone, the expression on her face had been downright nervous, if not a little pale.
She had been perhaps checking for a message? I had deleted the last message that had came last night, it served to do more harm than good, I knew I had been right when I saw that relived look passed across her features.
Without a word, she had begun to leave through the door, a friend she had said she was going to meet.
My reaction had be

SINFUL OBSESSIONCHAPTER TWENTY FIVE.MELISSA.I watched as Rick ran through the details, it reminded me so much of old times, the person I was before, even though I didn't want to remember, the memories of what my life used to be kept coming.My hands were slightly trembling, I dug my nails into my leather bag waiting for him to be done with whatever it was, all I wanted at this moment was to return home.Home?When did I start to regard his place as home, what we have now was only going to be temporary until I sort out pieces of my life, that had been what I wanted, so why then did my life now seemed to be a whole lot complicated and messed up than ever?A home was something I never had, and never dreamt of having, I think after dad's death, the longest place I've ever stayed was at my hotel, I had bought it after I sold of dad's family hou

I shouldn't be feeling this towards him, it wasn't part of the deal.Thinking about it now, how had he arrived at the right moment.... both times?I remembered that he had said something to the other man who had first confronted me.Had he followed me?No, if he had, he definitely wouldn't have been asking how the coffee with my imaginary " Paul and his girlfriend " went,

Something told me that she was staying away intentionally, the thought didn't sit well with me.I straightened to my feet and headed towards the kitchen just in time to see her returning a bottle of water into the fridge.I heard her loud sigh as she leaned against the kitchen wall.She was staring at the space ahead , still unaware of my presence until I almost got to where she stood, she turned around with a slight gasp of surprise."When did you come in? " She asked."Just now, where were you lost? You were saying something back there "Almost immediately, her gaze clouded with an emotion I recognize too well. She toyed with her fingers, her expression filled with doubts and nervousness, I could almost feel her withdrawing to herself , the little break that phone

I had just wanted to break out from myself and everything, even if it was only for a short time. Starting to open up everything to him had been way more difficult than I had anticipated.Each moment I spent dragging deep breaths to my lungs made the doubts and anxiety settle more fully.He had asked who was after me. I hadn't been able to bare to him all of my internal fears, I hadn't been able to tell him that I was that a ghost might be after me.Ronnie has been dead for eight years, how could he just resurface? And resume tormenting my mind once again?Sebastian's gaze had been filled with understanding, but even then I still hadn't been able to let it out, but it had been for a whole lot different reason. If I told him about Ronnie, then I would have to open up about everything, on all the

SINFUL OBSESSIONCHAPTER TWENTY NINE**SEBASTIANI shouldn't have been affected the way it did, her words combined with the way her gaze was tilted to mine sent a frenzied rush of need through me, pumping blood into my manhood and sizzling it to life.it was a relief to know I wasn't the only one who was so damn fixated with her.I wasn't the only one who couldn't get her off my mind to the extent that I felt I was losing my sanity.Knowing she also felt something too wouldn't make anything easier, hell it would only get more dangerous, we could easily get burnt from the destination we were heading to, despite these thoughts, I couldn't deny myself the burning sweet rush of pleasure that this moment provided.Jerking her towards me, I plunged my tongue into her warm inviting mouth, her arms wounded around my shoulders to pull me, even closer to her, if that wa

SINFUL OBSESSIONCHAPTER THIRTYMELISSA.His intense gaze and grip around my midsection held me captive, pulling me to lean against the heat of his body.Each question cutting through my heart, until the pain became almost unbearable, like shards of glass piercing through my skin.The corners of my eyes seared with pain until his image became blurry before me.A part of me that was so afraid of what he would think of me rivaled against the piece of me that had bottled my fears for too long, the part that longed to let everything drop out.I dragged in a deep breath, wiping against the corners of my eyes.' He was the first person to own me ' The moment the words slipped out of my mouth, I felt him tense against me, the muscles of his arms wrapped around me turned rigid." Tell me everything " He spoke in a fierce whisper.I met his searing gaze slowly,

SINFUL OBSESSIONCHAPTER THIRTY ONEMELISSA.His gaze was deep and appeared a little distant, it was as if he was thinking hard about something. His attention reverted to me, a spike of worry shot through me, was there something wrong?Just as I was about to ask, he broke the silence, but his tone sounded rigid. "What did you say was his full name? "There was an edge to his tone that made me think he wasn't just asking casually."I already told you I don't know " I whispered, still wondering why he looked so tensed. I never knew Ronald's last or middle name, I had never tried to find as well, for all I knew he had always been referred to as " Ronnie"His silence clawed my insides with worry, I had the feeling that something was up, why was he being hesitant to tell me?"What's wrong Sebastian?

SINFUL OBSESSION CHAPTER THIRTY TWO MELISSA. Noon came by pretty quickly, I stared absentmindedly at my reflection as I buttoned the blouse I wore.A room away was Sebastian, as time went past, I couldn't help but feel he was being reluctant with this meeting with Rick. As much as I was excited to know that he was so concerned about me and couldn't bear for anything to go wrong, it still couldn't compare with the nervousness at the reality of the whole situation before me.I exhaled aloud to ease the tight knot of tension in my stomach, I was done with the buttons, I started to gather my hair into a loosed bun when the door pushed open and Sebastian entered. His gaze found mine and locked as he walked over in sure strides.A knot that had nothing to do with the nervousness formed a lump in my throat. This man cared about me? It was almost unbeli

EPILOGUE **FOUR YEARS LATER SEBASTIAN. "When are Uncle Hayden and Aunt Gracie supposed to get here? " Trey asked, he was three, soon to be four in a few months.He constantly looked over his shoulders with wide hopeful eyes.I would say I had it correctly when I told Melissa that I had the feeling that we were going to have a boy. Trey looked every bit like me, except when he smiled, that was definitely his mother's.He usually was a very well-behaved kid, the same couldn't be said about Mia, who was for now content in screaming out her lungs, with her mother battling to calm her down. Our gazes met and held.My heart swelled with pride like always, she had been mine from that moment I saw her at that club and now she was mine forever."Daddy, are they still going to come!" Trey asked impatiently, staring at me expectantly and waiting for a response.I smiled and reached to pat hi

THREE MONTHS LATER**MELISSA"We are gathered here today to honor the very unique love between the bride and groom by uniting them in marriage..." The priest began.Standing on the aisle was the most beautiful bride I've ever seen and it was none other than my sister. Today was she and Hayden's wedding.Her eyes were lighted, I could tell that she was happy, it brought tears to my eyes. I also had never expected to get a happy ending in my life either, but somehow I did, with Sebastian.He easily got adjusted to the fact that he was soon going to be a father. As for me, I would be lying if I said that I still wasn't worried, but in this nervousness also came tremendous happiness that I've never experienced. I knew for certain that I would give this child growing inside of me the best of life that I possibly could. A slight whimper broke into my thoughts, I stared at the face of the beautiful baby in my arms. About some three months ago,

CHAPTER FIFTY FOURMELISSA**I hadn't expected him to accept the news so easily, a huge part of me had expected him to freak out exactly the way I did when I first found out. I was struck with a surge of relief, that was until he mentioned staying together as a family.He made it sound so easy, so tempting. Only I couldn't allow myself to give in to it.I had never experienced what it meant to be a real family, I hadn't Still, I understood very well that it would never be real unless there was love. And that was something that I would never be able to get from him, or so I had thought until he had said those words.The emotions that swept through me then were raw, mere words couldn't describe the disbelief mixed with shock and also something else. An explosion of happiness so powerful that shook me with the urge to burst out in tears. His lips silenced the little trace of doubts I had, devouring mine hungri

SINFUL OBSESSION CHAPTER FIFTY-FOURSEBASTIAN**Time slowly ticked past while we stared at each other in pin-drop silence.Whatever I had been expecting her to say as the reason she was confused and scared, I would never have expected it."You wanted to know, Yes, I'm pregnant Sebastian! " She repeated louder, her eyes becoming a little blurry.For the first time in my life, I could say I was left speechless, my throat was too tight for me to utter a single word. She stared at me unblinkingly, probably waiting for my reaction to her revelation, surprise couldn't even begin to justify the surge of emotions that assaulted me the next moment.I've never given a real thought about having my own kids, my brother's daughter had given me quite a scare when I had first met her. It was majorly because I had never been a kid myself. I didn't know how to handle them or know how to behave myself around them, so I neve

It hadn't gone behind me that she was a lot more different since these past two days since she got discharged from the hospital, often at times, I would catch her staring ahead into space. I could amount the number of words she had spoken to me since we returned.She mumbled a word of thanks as she accepted both pill and water from me."I'll help you change your bandage" I spoke, accepting the glass from her, placing it on the table."I can do it myself, it doesn't even hurt anymore since these days" She muttered under her breath, her eyes wandering everywhere in the room but me."I wasn't asking if you can or not, I just want to do it for you"This time her eyes snapped to meet mine, there was a mix of emotions burning in those

SINFUL OBSESSIONMELISSA**The sky outside was beginning to brighten up, indicating it was already morning.I sat on the small bed, barely of the doctors and nurses who were flocking around me, I couldn't even answer any of their questions.I couldn't tell if my current state was due to the shock I experienced a few hours ago. Was it hours already since that horrific moment?Everything had happened too quickly, but thankfully, Sebastian was fine. A bullet had grazed his side, but according to the doctors, it was not anything life-threatening. That cold fear that had taken control of me when he had been lying on that ground was something I never want to experience again.I didn't mean to blurt those words aloud like that, maybe it was those words he said or the way his eyes had seemed so tender, I knew I just had to let it all out. It felt as if some huge burden had been lifted from my chest, only the

SINFUL OBSESSIONCHAPTER FIFTY ONE**SEBASTIANThe last few hours had been one of the longest of my entire life, that raging fear that I was too late to save her, that something would so easily go wrong and she would end up even more hurt than she already was, or that Robert would pull the trigger on her at any time. It would have been so easy to tackle Robert if only he didn't hold her so dangerously close to him. I've always known she was important to me, but at that moment, I would gladly have laid down my life in exchange for hers without a second thought. Thinking of a life without her in that crucial moment had been agonizing. I realized I wouldn't ever be able to do it.Fuck whatever this is called, all I knew was that I needed her with me at all times.And never think of letting go.Robert had made the mistake of thinking it was just me, that was the first advantage I had over him, and just as he had fired tha

SINFUL OBSESSIONCHAPTER FIFTYMELISSA**And behind him was...Sebastian!Oh god!My heart rocketed high in both shock and disbelief. An intense wave of relief made by legs weak.I couldn't tell how he got to be here, not I thought I wouldn't be able to see his face for the last time, but somehow here he was .He came for me. Gun in his hand, his stormy gaze met with mine and remained, my heart squeezed so tightly in my chest, I felt it would burst out any moment. There was a dark chill in his eyes that I haven't seen ever before.He was furious.From where I stood, I could feel the cold rage radiating off him in full waves. I couldn't tell if it was directed at me, or dad, or perhaps at our situation right now. But then, the ice in his eyes cracked, replaced by a softened look, a flicker of communication passed between the both of us at this moment before it all faded into bubbles.A sudden pain

SINFUL OBSESSIONCHAPTER FORTY NINEMELISSA.**"Leave it to you to bring me this surprise, when I thought we would have to wait" He patted Rick's shoulders twice, his expression seeming almost proud.I stared at the man unflinchingly.The silence echoed after his statement. His second one since the moment the door had pushed opened.Except for the sounds of their approaching footsteps which were heavy against the cold tiled floor, there was nothing, except maybe the heavy pounding of my heart.I stood still where I stood, barely aware of the sound of the seconds slowly ticking past from the wall clock on the side of the room.I didn't know for how long past, we both stared at each other. Studying the other. He was perhaps searching my gaze for shock, or maybe it was terror, I was supposed to feel at seeing him, this was the surprise Rick was talking about giving me, and even though I had fully anticipa
