GRACIE..
"Look uncle Hayden is making pancakes! "
I chose that moment to direct my gaze to meet his, he returned my stare unflinchingly.
I resisted the urge to squirm especially when he began to make his gaze over to us.
Thankfully Hazel chose that moment to tug on my clothes, breaking off the magnetic pull he had on me.
I straightened down to her level to Wipe off pieces of pancakes from the corners of her chin and fingers."I also helped him out, isn't that right uncle Hayden? " she rushed out in an excited gush and I couldn't help the tug of smile that formed on my lips. As much as it worried me that she was getting too attached to him in such a short pace of time, it was also heart warming to see her looking so alive and excited..
"That's very good Hazel, but in case you need something or you are hungry you can just ask me, you needn't have to trouble your.... Uncle Hayden
HAYDENAn irritated look crossed my face as I stared at the called ID"You sure took enough time " he spoke as soon as I answered"I had business to handle ,you could have picked a better time brother ""By the way why did you find her back? You've ranted for so long how she isn't good for me so... ""Because you didn't want to find her anymore ... and it was changing you into a person we all don't recognize ""And you think she'll be able to help me? That's fucking stupid "You can always let her go if you're not too keen on having her back "A pregnant silence followed but I could imagine the mocking expression I knew he had on his face."I thought as much.. "A low sound escaped my throat at his words, he shouldn't sound so confident that he did the right thing. She might just end up destroying me instead of fixing me... Not that I believe I can be fixed anyway ..I'm
GRACIE"What if that isn't what I want and all I've ever wanted was your all of you, for you to need me as just as badly as I need you, for me not to have to force you to stay with me, that I deeply crave the most is your love, will you give that to me then? ....we'll both get what we want , will you still help me then? "I stiffened a bit at the dark burning look in his gaze.There were so dark , you could barely see any part of iris left. It was raw with need...desperation and..... fear?We were both alike....As much as he damaged me I still need him, maybe somewhere in the line I got addicted to him as well, but a deep innermost part of me was dark with fear, that his dark side would scald us both..... Maybe not intentionally, but still...But i already came this far, there was no turning point for me, I could only delve deeper and deeper and see where it lead
GRACIEHe wouldn't leave his room, but I noticed the frequent glances he threw in our direction from the bedroom window. So I sent Hazel to him, I knew he would listen to her.And he did...Going out for some air would refresh all of our minds a bit, not to mention that it would also make Hazel happy.When we returned it was already quite dark, I would say everything went fine even though he had barely spoken no more than two words to me, it felt as though he was avoiding me.Hazel's eyes were already drooping closed when the car drove to a stop. We entered the house and I quickly ran her a bath and tucked her in bed.Some time later I noticed his presence behind me"She's asleep " I whisperedHe nodded slowly and took a sit beside the bed , his hand brushing over mine, I looked up wondering if it had been intentional, wordlessly we watched
HAYDENThe conversation with dad ended, I wonder how he got to know about everything despite being away.But then I didn't have to wonder for long, it could only have been one person.He wanted to meet them... Most especially his granddaughter.My face was settled permanently in a dark scowl.They weren't ready yet.Most importantly I wanted to spend every of my time with them. After our conversation this morning I felt a little change in me, it was a little sense of reassurance that had spread through my heartShe needed me... And she wouldn't leave me. I didn't want to ruin anything by disappointing her, getting her to know about our business and the sort of things we do may be too fast and might just scare her away.That was the fucking last thing I neededFuck.This was going to be way much harder than I would ever have thought.I wished the three o
GRACIE"Love me Gracie! " his voice cracked out filled with raw emotions that made his gaze seemed darker and stormy."I will..." I found myself whispering passionately.He made no move to touch me other from the firm grip that held me against his hard chest ....i could feel the tenseness radiating off his muscles....His laboured breath indicated that he was fighting an internal battle with himself . He was trying to hold himself back.I realized slowly that he was giving me an opportunity to choose if I wanted him or not ...the thought took my breath away and at the same time made me feel....needed and gave me a sense of freedom.His gaze held mine like a spell, like a dangerous, delirious kind of magic. I swallowed, my heart thrummed with anticipation and an inexplicable, unidentifiable hunger.The air got so thick , it became hard to draw in a breath.A hot pool of need spread from my lower stomach
GRACIETwo weeks went by in a blink of an eye , he really trying hard to be a better person to me and Hazel, but some days he would just snap, then apologize afterwards. It wasn't easy ,but I understood, I was willing to be patient until the day his demons were finally going to be let free..Although he fought it, I still feel it though, the darkness was still in there ... Still buried inside of him, waiting for the slightest opportunity to claw out of their temporary cage. He became more possessive than ever, like he would never let me out of his sight even for a minute , it elated me but at the same time I was scared.Some nights I would wake up to find him awake, his gaze studying me. But he's never hurt me. I knew he wouldn't....but I couldn't say for sure what would happen if I tried to leave, not that I would try to, but the anxiety that he was getting way too obsessed with me was distur
GRACIEMy gaze slowly opened to the bright morning light, the first thing I noticed was the empty space on the bed besides me.After our argument yesterday we haven't spoken to each other...Even through out dinner last night he appeared to be keeping his distance from me, I couldn't help thinking it was my fault that we were back to this stage once again.Last night he'd only entered into the room and lay down besides me when it was already so late, he probably had thought that I had fallen asleep, and this morning he was gone even before I could wake up.I closed my eyes inhaling deeply , how long was this going to continue?My ears caught the sound of water running and my attention directed at the closed bathroom door.I pushed away the sheets and made my way out of the bed, i don't know for how long I stood outside the bathroom door , I inhaled sharply then struggled for another a
GRACIEA huge mahogany desk separated us from the middle aged man who bore a striking resemblance to Hayden, though his eyes were not as deep as Hayden's, by what I presumed was due to age, the sides of his hair were streaked with grey, he stood tall , just about a few inches below Hayden. His presence demanding power despite his advanced age.His gaze followed us as we made our way further inside the huge study .My stomach tightened with just a hint of nervousness as he completed the distance between us, his gaze focused on all three of us"Father " he acknowledged with a slight nod of his head .I don't think he realized Hayden had spoken , his attention was solely fixed on Hazel who stared right back at him in open curiosity .I saw a hint of softness in his gaze which slowly transformed into a small smile ,that alone set me a little at ease."Hello dear child " He spok
HAYDEN... FOUR YEARS LATER... A grunt accompanied by a soft moan escaped our parted lips, as I drove us both to the highest height of ecstasy . We fought for a moment to catch out breath. I stared into the gaze of my wife of three years. Yeah, we got married right after she gave birth to our second daughter Sophie. My need for her would never be sated, no matter how many times we've made love, each time it still felt so intense, driving me with the insane need to completely possess her. She was mine, and that would never change. I leaned to kiss the sides of her her hair gently. "Hayd...." she started to say when the loud cry of a baby filled the entire room. A sheepish smile formed on her face as she scrambled for the sheets. "He must have gotten tired of waiting patiently " At her words, a smug smirk of satisfaction spread across my face."Yeah, I understand the feeling, he must be so jealous of me
GRACIEI led her inside the house after Hayden stepped aside, mumbling some words under his breath.The expression he wore would define make anyone uneasy, but Melissa didn't seem to mind, or maybe she just didn't care about what he thought about her.Over the past month our relationship sped up quickly, although Hayden still disapproved, as he always regarded her as "potentially dangerous " .He was wrong , she could as well be the nicest person I've ever met. The first month she'd been eager to learn about me, although the initial awkwardness had been there between us, it had quickly washed away after the first few meets.I think it due to the fact that the both of us grew up without experiencing the love of a a real family. She didn't seem to take offence at Hayden's blatant dislike, as even now his disapproving gaze watched over us like a hawk.
GRACIETHREE MONTHS LATERHands parted my thighs open, hairs tickled my inner thighs as warm breath teased my exposed core."Hayden... " I sighed , my eyes fluttering open.A gasp escaped my lips at the sudden bolt of eccentric pleasure when he gave my slit a long lick.His tongue circled on the nub. teasing my clit , a welcoming moan rose in my throat. I wanted release, but he wasn't going to make it easy, he was in one of his playful moods today."Hayden please...make me cum" I moaned buckling my hips, my fingers sinking into his hair."Now that's a good girl " he murmured, I felt his lips stretched in a smirk against me before his teeth grazed my swollen clit again , sucking at it hungrily.A whimper escaped my mouth, i trembled violently as a orgasm burst free . The shock of it draining out my strength."You taste so good, I can't get enough " He murmure
GRACIE.I was once again in the dark.The sound of his dark ugly laughter echoed as I ran as fast as I could, my heart was pounding hard against my chest. Then I saw Melissa struggling against his grip .An evil grin crept across his features.Oh god! he was going to kill herThe knife was clenched tight in my fist.It punctured straight into his chest .There was so much blood...On the ground, my hands, the sick metallic stagnant smell made me want to vomit.A terrified scream erupted from my mouth when I saw dead gaze blinked at me from the floor.I heard my name, but the voice sounded as though for away.I heard it again, this time it was harsh and commanding , forcing me to jolt awake from the terrifying nightmare . My gaze flew open to a pair of dark green gaze staring down at me in concern. "Hayden.. ""shh it's just
GRACIE"Mommy! " she cried as her arms tightened around me.I embracing her tightly, I closed my eyes inhaling her sweet scent of baby powder. I had been so scared for her..For us.."Papa " she called again voice as he straightened down to her level, his face worked tight with emotions."Are you alright princess? " his gaze scanned over her gentle features as he spoke.She nodded repeatedly but her grip on me didn't lessen a bit.I blinked back to push back the tears, I felt Hayden's gaze on me , he was concerned about me as well, but I think his has more to do with the way I reacted after I had pulled the knife on Robert."That bad guy hurt you mommy ?" Her crying had subsided and became quiet hiccups ."Nothing happened to me sweetie , the bad men didn't hurt me "She didn't looked in any way convinced, I guess the bruises on my fac
GRACIE"You wanted save your sister, why don't you die first bitch! "My legs stilled to a stop , I stood there froze as his words replayed in my ears .Did he just say sister?No, I must have gotten that all wrong, It just wasn't possible, I mean how.....There wasn't much time to ponder over it as he was slowly draining the life out of her like a ragged doll .Any moment from now, it would be too late.I didn't think nor hesitate.I acted instinctively, the knife clenched tightly in my palms.He sensed my movement and moved quickly. Not quick enough.it was too late .For him.A scream of pain erupted from his mouth as the knife drove hard into his chest, I pulled out the knife, tearing another scream from him.I closed my eyes momentarily at the nauseating sight when red liquid seeped from his cloth and into my hands.
GRACIE"What did you do! " he screamed, his face contorted with raw fury .The phone was flung from my hands before I could even utter a word to Hayden , it was sent flying against the nearest wall with a loud crash.He backhanded her hard twice across the face , she fell gracelessly to the hard floor , a whimper escaping her lips.The harsh mark of an ugly bruise was beginning to form below her left eye, there was blood stain running down her nostrils.He kicked her repeatedly like a ragdoll, earning a loud scream from me."Stop it! "I fought against the binds on my foot in futility.He turned towards me in that moment, his lips curved in an evil snarl.I couldn't begin to fathom how cruel he could be, he could even do this to his own daughter, he would even do worse to me. But she fell into this situation all because of me. It was all because I h
GRACIEI ran blindly, my heart pounded frantically against my ribcage, my veins surged with adrenaline mixed with fear , I couldn't really see each turn I made around the mansion, it was dark, where were the lights? , I needed to Hazel and get out of this place..I couldn't imagine the trauma she must be in now, if she was scared, if right now she was crying for me or Hayden.Hayden....Oh god, I wondered if he has realized that we've been kidnapped, I've never needed him as I did right now. I should never have left, but it was already too late to regret that . Right now I have to fight for myself and Hazel, at the same time I would be fighting for him.My feet slowed to a halt as I reached a dead end, I cried out my frustration.It was too late to turn around. The footsteps were getting louder, it was only a matter of seconds before
GRACIEThe first thing that registered on my mind as I slowly drifted into consciousness was that it was cold.Chilling cold..Followed by the sudden sensation of pain, my whole body ached , especially my face, it felt as if it had been hit over by a truck.The floor beneath me was hard and....wet?My heavy lids fluttered open, I blinked twice to clear my hazy vision.It was dimly lit all over,. the only streak of light came from a dim bulb at the far end of the room."Where am I? " I thought inwardly.I tried to move my hands and feet but couldn't, that was when the panic kicked in. Why was I tied up?Have I been kidnapped? So many thoughts were running at great speed through my head. I inhaled sharply as I tried to recall everything that had took place, and how I managed to end up in this state.
