All Chapters of Seduction & Betrayal: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

My name is Sierra Ryans and in all my years as a cop I have never found myself in a position quite like the one that I find myself in now!  Normally I am great with details and remembering faces but this time the only thing I noticed that the stranger was tall, slender, frightening and that there was a familiarity about him that I could not understand.  It was like there was an itch in the back of my mind that I could not quite reach.  I didn’t know if it was his scent, which was actually quite wonderful to smell and it called to a place deep in my soul, or if it was the way that he moved.  He moved with a gracefulness, almost like a panther stalking his prey but not in a menacing way.  Whatever it was she knew one thing was for sure…they HAVE met before!  The more I tried to place him the more I got irritated with herself for not knowing where I knew him from.  I had no doubt that I would find out soon enough. “You must come with m

Xavier Collans had been looking for Sierra Ryas for years now, one of his contacts finally came through with her location.  She lived in Klamath Oregon; he was eagerly on his way there the moment he found out.  When he arrived, he felt like a stalker watching her from the shadows of a large Elm tree.  She was headed from the deli around the corner to her apartment located in the Emerald Knight Apartment building.  His anxiety calmed down a bit knowing that she was alive, but his uneasiness didn’t lessen. He was so lost in his thoughts about the past that he wasn’t aware of another presence in the area until the stranger was almost upon Sierra.  She was almost to her door, so he needed to act fast.  As he looked around, he was thankful that she lived on a street that was isolated from heavy traffic, it made it easier to transform without being seen.  He would have to talk to her sooner or later about her past but for right now there were mor

The man turned up the volume on the television, the then o’clock news was covering his handiwork.  Sheila Andercroft was a fiery tempered woman, and he had a lot of fun breaking her!  Every artist has to see what impact his work has on the public!  He thought to himself, not really paying attention to the comments from the news crew.  He remembered the day he ‘met’ her.  He “accidentally” bumped into her at a supermarket about two weeks ago.  She was browsing the pasta aisle.  She never suspected what he was like when she agreed to have dinner with him three days ago, he was able to overpower her quite easily.  When she was unconscious, he took her to his playground, for a little bit of fun, his fun! An image on the television screen brought him out of his thoughts, he was glad to see Detective Sierra Ryans.  He was quickly seeing her as a worthy adversary, he didn’t deny that she was very attractive and did thin

By six o’ clock, I was really anxious to get home and take some aspirin and take a scalding hot shower!  I need to ease the tension out of my body and hopefully my migraine will ease up too.  My cell rang as I was digging out my keys, as I approached the front door of my apartment.  What the hell could it be now?!  I looked at the screen and saw that my on again off again boyfriend, Tucker!  I haven’t talked to him in a month, why would he be calling now?  I took a slow breath, trying to slow my heartbeat.  “Hello?”  I was surprised at how calm my voice was given my sporadic heartbeat. “Hey there good looking!  It is so good to hear your voice, I have been thinking about you all day!”  His voice sounded husky.  He had always been able to make her weak in the knees when he spoke.  I had a smile on my face just remembering the last time Tucker and I were together.  “It good to hear your

I will need to get some supplies before I start on my next project.  Professor Evans thought to himself as he drove to work.  I will need tape, rope, super glue…  he never had to worry about forgetting what he needs because of years of mental challenges.  He knew that he couldn’t’ afford to keep notes or any records of his acts, he always had to stay on guard.  The only thing that has kept him from getting caught was his rule; leave no evidence behind.  So far, it’s worked for him. He pulled off the main road and onto a dirt road he continued down the road for about a mile then passed through one of two gates that lead to Knightly Tanner College.  The school was actually an old castle style stone building that used to house the insane.  Some fifty years ago it was converted into a college, he found it somewhat soothing.  The Dean of the school wanted to remodel the school, but the locals banded together in a stri
