Sebastian leaned back in his chair, a rare moment of serenity washing over him as he glanced at the clock. It was finally time for lunch—an excuse to steal a few precious minutes with his wife. He turned his gaze toward Olivia’s cabin, where she was immersed in her work, oblivious to his plans.

Smirking to himself, he reached for the intercom and pressed the button to call her.

Olivia picked up without looking at the caller ID. “Hello?” she said, her voice distracted but soft.

“It’s time for lunch,” Sebastian’s smooth voice replied.

“So?” she retorted, not bothering to mask the mild irritation in her tone.

He chuckled quietly, a teasing edge creeping into his words. “Can I get my wife now?”

At that, Olivia glanced up, her eyes meeting his through the glass wall separating their offices. A slight blush crept up her cheeks, but she quickly tried to compose herself. “I’m not hungry,” she said, hoping to deflect him.

Sebastian’s smirk widened, his tone firm yet laced with affection

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 49: Getting Intimate

    The day’s work finally draws to a close, a quiet relief settling over the car as it glides steadily along the dimly lit road. Olivia sits quietly in the passenger seat, her gaze fixed intently on the rain-slicked streets outside, where reflections of streetlights shimmer like small stars in a darkened sky. The soft, rhythmic hum of the engine fills the air, mingling with the distant sound of raindrops pattering against the windshield. In this cocoon of muted sounds, Olivia becomes lost in her thoughts, a tangle of reflections swirling in her mind. Sebastian, seated behind the wheel, steals occasional glances at her from the corner of his eye. He feels a familiar knot of tension in his stomach, his fingers tightening around the steering wheel. The weight of the silence between them hangs thick, filled with unspoken words that seem to echo louder than the rain. He shifts uncomfortably in his seat, a subtle dance of nerves and determination as he tries to conjure up something—anythin

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 50: Their Outburst

    Sebastian's breath grew deeper and more pronounced as he advanced toward her, his dark eyes alight with an intensity that made Olivia’s heart race uncontrollably. Every inch closer seemed to electrify the air around them, and when his hand gently brushed against her cheek, it felt like a spark igniting. His thumb traveled softly along her jawline, and she couldn’t suppress the shiver that traced down her spine, a mix of anticipation and trepidation. They were so close now that Olivia could feel the warmth of his breath, ragged and uneven, mingling with her own in the charged atmosphere between them. His lips hovered mere inches from hers, and for a fleeting moment, the world around them faded away, time itself seeming to suspend as if holding its breath. But as if breaking free from a hypnotic spell, Olivia's instincts surged to the forefront of her mind. Adrenaline surged through her veins as she summoned all her strength and pushed him away, her palms pressing firmly against his

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 51: Breaking News

    Olivia’s eyes flutter open, slowly adjusting to the soft sunlight that filters through the sheer, gauzy curtains. The golden light casts a warm glow across the room, illuminating the exquisite details of her surroundings—a lavish suite decorated in muted neutral tones, with gleaming gold accents that catch the eye, and an opulent crystal chandelier that sparkles overhead. Every inch of the space exudes luxury, yet it feels oddly foreign to her. Her head feels heavy, a dull ache pulsating through her temples, and her limbs are burdened as if weighed down by invisible chains. As she sits up in the plush bed, the soft linens whisper against her skin, and she takes a moment to process the disorienting strangeness of it all. The events of the previous night come rushing back to her like a tide, bringing with them a particularly chilling memory: Sebastian’s disquieting words echoing through her mind: “Now, I’m not going to disturb you.” A shaky exhale escapes her lips, the silence in th

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 52: Apologize?

    Olivia sat frozen, her heart racing as she locked eyes with Sebastian, the weight of the situation hanging heavily in the air. The dim light of the room cast shadows across his face, highlighting the tension that radiated between them. “Did you do this?” she asked, her voice trembling, barely more than a whisper but tinged with an undeniable sense of disbelief that hung like a thick fog.Sebastian, perched beside her with an unsettling calmness that sent shivers down her spine, turned to meet her gaze. His expression was a mask of neutrality, but Olivia could sense something dark simmering beneath the surface—an unsettling flicker in his eyes that hinted at depths she had never dared to explore. “He got what he deserved,” he said, his voice steady and devoid of any hint of remorse, as if he were discussing the weather rather than the fate of a man she could only imagine in the depths of her mind.A wave of nausea swept through Olivia as the implications of his words crashed over her l

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 53: Efforts

    Olivia sat on the edge of her bed, her fingers absentmindedly twisting the hem of her shirt. Her mind replayed the events of the previous night on an endless loop—the cold edge in her voice, the frustration she had let slip, and the way Sebastian’s expression had faltered, even if only for a moment. She sighed deeply, burying her face in her hands. Was I too harsh? Maybe I misunderstood him… The thought unsettled her. She couldn’t deny that Sebastian’s behavior was strange—obsessive, even—but there were moments, fleeting as they were, when he seemed genuinely concerned for her. She hated how complicated it all felt, how her emotions kept tangling up in ways she didn’t understand. She stood abruptly, trying to shake the thoughts away. “I need to stop overthinking,” she muttered under her breath. But the gnawing guilt wouldn’t let go. Maybe I should do something… something to make up for last night. The idea popped into her head before she could second-guess it. She frowned at h

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 54: Possessive

    Olivia meticulously positioned the plate of steaming pasta in front of Sebastian, her hands trembling slightly with a mix of excitement and anxiety as she adjusted its placement on the table. The rich, mouthwatering aroma of freshly sautéed garlic mingled with the vibrant scent of basil, all enveloped in a creamy sauce that seemed to shimmer under the warm, flickering candlelight. The inviting bouquet of fragrances filled the intimate dining room, wrapping around them like a cozy blanket on a cool evening. She discreetly wiped her palms on her apron, her heart pounding in her chest as she observed him lift the silver fork that lay beside the plate, its polished surface gleaming.Sebastian commanded the head of the long, elegantly set dining table, his expression inscrutable as he scrutinized the dish before him. The soft lighting cast playful shadows across his chiseled features, enhancing the intensity of his piercing gaze, which seemed to assess not just the food, but her as well. H

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 55: Convincing him

    They both have woke up and are now in an awkard silence on the breakfast tableThe soft clatter of cutlery echoed through the quiet dining room, the only sound breaking the stillness that enveloped the space. Sunlight filtered through the large windows, casting gentle beams on the polished wooden table, but Olivia found little warmth in their glow as she sat at the far end, her fork listlessly pushing her scrambled eggs around the plate. The vibrant yellow of the eggs contrasted sharply with her growing unease, making the meal seem even more unappetizing. Across from her, he sat rigidly upright, a picture of composure. His sharp features were framed by tousled dark hair, but his focus was entirely absorbed by the stack of documents he held in his hands. The way he meticulously adjusted his glasses and brushed a finger across the pages suggested a deep commitment to whatever was printed on them, as if the very fate of the universe lay within those black and white lines. Olivia stole

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 56: Surprise

    The soft morning light filtered through the delicate lace curtains, casting a warm golden hue across the room as Olivia gradually stirred from her slumber. She blinked several times, allowing her eyes to adjust to the gentle glow of the sun that enveloped her. Just as she began to fully awaken, a sharp, authoritative knock echoed through the stillness, causing her heart to race as she sat up quickly in bed, her mind racing with questions.Before she could gather her thoughts or muster a response, the door creaked open. In stepped Sebastian, impeccably dressed in a tailored dark jacket that accentuated his athletic frame, paired with sleek black boots. His presence was as commanding as ever, exuding an aura of confidence that filled the room."Good morning, Little Bird," he greeted, a sly smirk playing at the corners of his lips, eyes sparkling with mischief.Olivia frowned, rubbing the sleep from her eyes as she took in his perfectly styled hair and the sharp lines of his suit.

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 86: Six months

    Sebastian leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed tightly over his chest, watching Olivia as she tried to reach for a fallen book on the floor. Her pregnant belly, now prominent at six months, seemed to make even the simplest of tasks a formidable challenge. He could see the frustration etched on her face, a mix of determination and exasperation.“Olivia, please stop that,” he said firmly, pushing himself away from the door and stepping closer.She let out an annoyed huff, her fingers straining to grasp the book just out of reach. “Sebastian, it’s just a book. I can pick it up myself,” she insisted, her tone a blend of stubbornness and pride.Not willing to let her continue, he knelt down, his knee creaking slightly as he bent. He swiftly grabbed the book and set it on the table with a deliberate motion. “You’re not supposed to bend over like that, especially now,” he said, concern lacing his voice.Olivia looked at him, her brow furrowing slightly. Despite his protective instincts

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 85: Telling Him

    Olivia sat cross-legged on the well-worn couch, the soft fabric of the cushions cradling her as she anxiously fidgeted with the edges of a small, white gift box that was delicately wrapped in a pale blue ribbon. The afternoon sun streamed through the window, casting a warm glow on her surroundings and illuminating her nervous fingers that kept tracing the ribbon’s neat bow. After hours of deliberation, she had finally settled on a way to share her exciting news with him. It was simple yet deeply meaningful—she wanted it to capture the essence of this new chapter in their lives. Inside the box lay a tiny onesie, perfectly soft to the touch, with the cheerful words “Daddy’s Little Sidekick” printed across the front in playful letters. The onesie was so small that it fit snugly in her hands, and even just the sight of it sent a wave of warmth and anticipation coursing through her. She closed her eyes for a moment, imagining their future baby adoringly dressed in it, giggling and reac

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 84: One Year

    Sebastian’s arms were enveloped around Olivia as he slept soundly, his face nestled against the soft curve of her neck. There was a sense of safety in his embrace, an instinctual tightness that conveyed his fear of losing her, even in slumber. Olivia couldn’t help but smile at the sight of him, her fingers gently trailing along his strong jawline. A year ago, she would never have envisioned this—living a life filled with genuine happiness alongside a man who had once instilled fear in her heart. The obsessive, possessive Sebastian she had initially known had transformed, evolving into someone she now couldn’t imagine living without.As if sensing her unyielding gaze, Sebastian stirred, instinctively tightening his embrace. His lips brushed lazily against her shoulder, and through the thick veil of sleep, he murmured in his deep, husky voice, “Watching me again, little bird?”Olivia stifled a soft laugh, feeling warmth spread through her chest. “Maybe.”His dark, expressive eyes flutt

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 83: The Protective Husband

    The morning sun poured through the sheer curtains, casting a warm, golden glow that danced softly across the walls of the cozy bedroom. Olivia, still wrapped in the delightfully smooth silky sheets, stretched lazily, her limbs comfortably entangled with Sebastian’s. It had been a month since they exchanged their feelings, yet each morning felt like a new, exquisite page in a never-ending dream—one she never wanted to awaken from.A strong, familiar arm tightened around her waist, pulling her irresistibly closer to the comforting warmth of her husband’s body. She could feel his breath, warm and gentle, brushing against the nape of her neck as he buried his face in her hair, inhaling the scent of their shared intimacy.“You’re awake,” he murmured softly against her skin, his voice still thick with the remnants of sleep.She smiled, her heart lightening at the sound of his voice, and turned to face him, their bodies mirroring the curve of the morning light. “So are you,” she replied pla

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 82: Love!

    The air between them hung thick with unspoken words and raw emotions, charged with a tension that had been simmering beneath the surface for far too long. It was as if the very atmosphere crackled with the weight of what they had both avoided acknowledging until this pivotal moment.Olivia’s vision blurred, tears welling up as she gazed at him, truly seeing him for the first time. Every line of his face, every subtle shift of his expression, resonated with the depth of his feelings. She had always sensed the intensity of his obsession, the relentless devotion that seemed to bind him to her. Yet, standing before him now, everything crystallized into sharp focus; she understood something profound and undeniable.A small part of her had been in denial, fiercely resisting the emotional pull he had on her heart. But as she observed his chest rising and falling unevenly, the sweat glistening on his brow, and the way his hands clenched tightly at his sides—straining against the urge to bridg

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 81: Confession

    The car rolls to a stop, and an enveloping silence descends around them, punctuated only by the gentle rustling of leaves in the soft breeze. The hum of the engine dies away, leaving a tranquil stillness in its wake. He exits the vehicle first, the cool air brushing against his skin, and strides purposefully to her side.With a practiced elegance, he opens the door, his hand extending toward her like an unspoken promise. “Come,” he invites, his tone laced with a calm authority.For a brief moment, she hesitates, the weight of uncertainty hanging in the air between them. But then, drawn by an inexplicable trust, she places her hand into his, feeling the warmth of his grip as he gently guides her out. The world around them is alive with the sweet whispers of nature, the faint floral scent wrapping around her like a delicate shawl. Yet, before she can fully take in the vibrant hues of the blooming landscape, he produces a silky blindfold from his pocket.“Trust me?” His voice is smooth,

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 80: Morning Surprises

    Olivia blinked awake, her senses gently stirred by the delicate touch of soft rose petals fluttering onto her skin, each one whispering a sweet allure of morning. As she sat up, her surprise turned to wonder, watching in awe as deep red petals cascaded gracefully from the ceiling fan above, twirling like dancers in slow motion. A small, delighted smile bloomed on her lips—this unexpected shower of roses felt ethereal, intimate, almost as if she had stumbled from the realm of dreams into a waking fantasy. Her gaze wandered to the bedside table, where a meticulously arranged tray awaited her. The warm, buttery aroma of freshly baked croissants wafted through the air, mingling harmoniously with the rich scent of her favorite coffee, still steaming in a beautifully crafted mug. A bowl of perfectly sliced fruits—vividly colored strawberries, succulent oranges, and plump blueberries—sat invitingly, a feast for both the eye and palate. Yet, what truly captivated her was the elegant note res

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 79: Surprise?

    Her heart swelled with a surge of emotion that took her completely by surprise. In that moment, standing before him, she realized she’d never imagined he was capable of such profound thoughtfulness, doing something so special just for her. Overcome with gratitude and joy, she lunged forward and enveloped him in a tight hug, her arms wrapping around him as if to shield the moment forever. The force of her embrace caused him to shift the cake slightly to the side, but in that instant, he felt as if nothing else mattered. As she clung to him, he could feel the warmth and weight of her presence against his chest. It took him a beat to realize that her unspoken happiness had given way to tears, and they were now slowly soaking into the fabric of his shirt. The salty droplets mingled with the sweetness of the moment, a testament to the deep connection they shared. Gently, he set the cake aside, its rich frosting glistening under the soft glow of the overhead lights. With a tender touch, h

  • Veiled Obsession    Chapter 78: Happy birthday!

    Olivia sat beside Sebastian, arms crossed tightly over her chest, her gaze fixed on the television screen, yet her mind drifted far from the laughter echoing from the characters on Friends. As the familiar theme song played, she felt the weight of disappointment pressing down on her, an insistent reminder of the day’s unspoken truth. He forgot my birthday. The thought twisted in her mind like a thorn, sparking a tangled web of frustration. She stole a sidelong glance at him, noting how effortlessly he immersed himself in the episode. His eyes danced with mirth, and a faint smirk crept across his face whenever Chandler delivered one of his trademark sarcastic jabs. How could he be so utterly relaxed? So blissfully unaware of the significance of today? It was as if they were living in two parallel worlds—his filled with humor and lightheartedness while hers was clouded with disappointment and a sense of overlooked importance. Olivia felt a surge of hurt wash over her, the kind that l
