Wicked Obsession Chapter 8
"We can have a three-day vacation in Maldives," he added.Hyperion's proposal was rather out of the blue it took a bit of time for Shantala to process his words. She was sure that he did not really like her, especially since she managed to fool him during the wedding. But after a minute, she snorted."You are kidding me, right? That is not really a honeymoon but a simple cover-up for whatever real intention you are hiding," she said.But even though she had the feeling that the mafia boss was planning something, she still walked in his direction to show that she was interested. She did not even hesitate to sit on his lap and put her arms around him before looking directly into his ever-alluring eyes."So, what exactly are you planning, hm?" she asked.Just as he expected, Shantala knew that he was up to something. He smirked and clipped a few locks of her hair behind her ear before pulling her closer to him. Knowing that she was a woman whom he could just wrap around his thumb, the id
Wicked Obsession Chapter 9
The next day, Shantala woke up without Hyperion in the mansion again. It was actually a relief for her because if she had seen his face, her day would have been ruined in no time. She was still mad at him for looking into her phone and for teasing her afterwards. He even had the guts to sleep so well that night.After getting all dressed up, she headed back to the Evening City Garden Club and met with her boss for another request. "I'm sorry, Shantala, but I do not keep guns and bombs and whatever you are looking for. Owning those kinds of things is illegal for a person like me. But I know someone who does," her boss said before returning to counting her money.She did not want to go to Maldives unprepared, especially since she had a strong feeling that Hyperion was planning something. Whatever traps he set up for her, she would fight so she needed some weapons."Who?" she asked.Her boss smirked and, as prying as she could be, she leaned forward while chewing her gum."Why do you wa

"What the hell is wrong with all of you? Let me out of here!" Shantala banged the door as hard as she could, hoping that Hyperion's men would come to their senses and let her out.She had no idea of what was really going on. All she knew was that they suddenly barged into the restaurant where she was working and took her away without saying anything. And upon taking her back to the mansion, they locked her up inside the master's bedroom. But since she had been yelling for a while and no one was responding to her, she decided to give that up and took her phone instead. She was about to call Hyperion because for sure, he was the one behind this. She wanted to know the reason why she was being detained but a realization hit her."Oh, yeah," she muttered, "I do not have his number."Just then, a thought crossed her mind that made her eyes widen and her nerves grew cold. Biting her nail, she could not help but worry that Hyperion had come to know that she was trying to get ahold of some w

Shantala could not find the right words to say upon entering the secret room inside Mr. Coleman's house. Her eyes scanned the place with a huge smile plastered on her face and the glimmer in her eyes did not fade. For her, this place was paradise."I cannot believe how awesome this place is," she managed to say as she ran her fingers on the katana displayed right in the middle of the room.It looked like it was the center of attraction, especially with its blazing red color. Though, she was really not fond of swords so she walked towards the wall where different types of guns were displayed."Since I... Uhm..." Mr. Coleman was hesitant to confess to her that he acquired most of the weapons through the black market. But still, he added, "Most of them were bought in a not-so-legal way. Are you okay with that?"She simply nodded her head because that did not really matter to her at all. A little while later, she stopped in her tracks when her eyes settled on a set of guns inside a glass

All Shantala could think about after seeing that picture was saving her sister. Thus, even though she hated it, she turned on her heels and was about to head back to the shop. However, she saw Klauss entering the elevator so she ran in his direction and managed to get inside even before the doors shut. Heaving, she looked up to him and grabbed his collar. "Where is she? Where are you keeping her, Klauss?" she yelled with frustration. With a grin plastered on his face, he leaned until their noses almost touched. "I will tell you the details if you join lunch with me," he said. He held her hand which was still covered in a bandage and kissed it. She glared at him as she snatched her hand away from his touch. Taking a few steps back from him, she fished out her phone from her pocket. Since Klauss was already here, she had to cancel her plans with her brother because getting him involved with the surgeon was the last thing she wanted. But then, the doctor took her phone away. "The
Wicked Obsession Chapter 1
Before the clock even strikes 5 early in the morning, the Evening City Garden club was already closed as the workers were busy cleaning after another messy yet thriving night. Within its private rooms, women after women were retiring for the day after their night duty. One of them was Shantala Vien Arceo, who dashed away from her assigned room upon hearing that her youngest brother was waiting for her at the backdoor of the club.This was the first time that her brother came to her workplace even after she strictly told her family members not to go there whatever happens. Worried about what was going on, she got out of the club and dragged her brother away before anyone who knew him would see them there."How many times do I have to tell you that you are forbidden to come here? If you want something, then you should have called me," she scolded Lance. "You know that I do not want any of you getting harassed because of my work."Lance, who was in his senior year in high school, heaved
Wicked Obsession Chapter 2
Shantala took her time walking on that aisle as she tried her best to simply look at the priest waiting for her arrival. She did not like the attention she was receiving because it somehow felt like she was still in that strip club she was working in with all the eyes of men on her. The faces in her peripheral view were only a few but all unfamiliar, especially the man waiting by the end of the aisle. What's more... Her heart was pounding like crazy that she was afraid it would break out from her rib cage. Even when she tried to take deep breaths to calm her nerves, it was ineffective. The sound of the violin being played echoed in the large church but it was overwhelmed by the fast-beating heart of Shantala. With every step, she walked towards her destination while her will of wanting to run away grew stronger but the thought of her sister being in her shoes made her waver. Getting involved with a mafia was already something one should avoid, thus, getting tied with one through a sa
Wicked Obsession Chapter 3
Shantala woke up alone in a room where she could oversee the beach that was stained with fiery orange coming from the rising sun. She had been asleep like a log for the past night. Feeling a bit sore after what happened between her and her new man, she took her time getting dressed before leaving the room, hoping she would see Hyperion by the living room or by the kitchen. But much to her disappointment, there was no one else but silence in the beach house.With the emptiness that suddenly came dawning on her, she started to think that what just happened was simply a dream. That thought triggered a pang of pain in her chest but she still tried to tell herself that the wedding and their first union were real. She was about to go outside but she noticed the yellow note pinned on the refrigerator door."Urgent business. Will be right back as soon as possible," she read. Just below the small note was a name, Hel. Shantala thought that it was probably the real name of Hyperion. But inste
