All Chapters of Dark Obsession: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

~ SIERRA ~Sierra walked into the bedroom with slow and careful steps. After turning the lights on, she saw how the master suite had been perfectly done for her liking. The ceilings were tall, decorated with a gorgeous light fixture, and the room was huge, with a king sized bed and couch in the middle. Right after the wedding was over, Sierra and Raphael got into a car and they went to the penthouse apartment Raphael bought. Raphael had to finish up some phone calls, so he went to his study while Sierra went to the bedroom. Being in this master bedroom wasn’t a new thing for her. She had been here before, Raphael took her to see the apartment last week. Sierra liked the view from this room, they had the most amazing unobstructed view of the New York skyline, rivaling the Empire State Building. Knowing how much Sierra liked the view, Raphael bought the place immediately. The apartment was also only ten minutes drive away from Henri’s house, so Sierra could always visit her dad anytim

She was three months along in her pregnancy and the doctor was finally able to tell her the gender. Sierra smiled as her finger brushed over the writing: A Boy. Sierra pressed the photograph to her chest and felt her heart fluttering. After weeks of torture she endured under Raphael, seeing the doctor this morning and hearing about her baby’s progress gave her hope. To the outside world, it seemed like Sierra was living a great life. She’d go to campus on the weekday and visit her dad and Rosie on the weekend. She always looked put together and she had on a brave smile in front of everyone. But what nobody knew was what would happen to her in the nighttime. Raphael was a hardworking man. He went to work every day, including weekends. He only came home around eight or nine, and th

~ COLTON ~- - - - - THREE DAYS LATER - - - - -Colton stood in front of a wall of photographs and notes in his study. His face was serious, his eyes were zeroed in on the newspaper clipping of Sierra and Raphael’s wedding. For the past several days, he didn’t sleep or rest, putting together this next mission. On the wall, all the clippings about Henri’s wife’s accident, Colton’s dad’s accident, Sierra’s wedding, Raphael’s businesses in Europe, and everything he could find on the Rothschild family were displayed. He also put notes next to the photos and clippings, proving that the Rothschild family was responsible for all of this.“I think we’ve got ourselves a pretty solid case,” Levi said as he stood next to Colton. The two of them were staring at the wall knowingly.“Yeah, but what are we doing with all this information?” Jackson stood on Colton’s other side, cocking his head to the side, watching the wall in confusion.Jackson and Levi exchanged a look, meanwhile, Colton kept his

~ SIERRA ~Sierra saw that the door to the closet was slightly ajar, and Colton was right behind it. She was lying helplessly on the bed and Raphael stood behind her. This was a routine she’d known so well. Just a few minutes of torture and it would be over. So when she saw Colton’s face and that look in his eyes, she knew she had to restrain him. Colton was about to do something and reveal himself. She couldn’t let it happen. That would be too dangerous, both for him and for her.“Don't,” she said with her eyes. Colton gripped the door as his hands curled into fists. “Don’t do anything, please!” Sierra kept saying with her eyes. Colton was taken aback. He didn’t know what to do. And suddenly—* RING! RING! RING *The loud ringing of the phone pierced the air. Raphael stopped whatever he was doing and turned to the phone on the bedside table. Sierra let out a sigh of relief and kept her eyes on Colton. “Don’t make a move!” she said with her eyes.“Hello?” Raphael said into the phone.

~ SIERRA ~* KNOCK * KNOCK *Sierra turned her head around and saw the door opening slowly. She quickly closed the window and walked to the door. One of the guards appeared with Rosie behind him.“Miss Sierra, your cousin is here,” he announced.“Thank you, I got it from here,” Sierra tried her best to act natural though her heart was racing like a speed car.The guard kept a straight face as he nodded his head and exited the room. Rosie stepped further inside the room and waited until the guard closed the door. “Hey,” she greeted.“Rose!” Sierra leaped to hug Rosie. “What a surprise!”“I know, I have some news and I can’t wait to share it with you,” Rosie said as she hugged her back. “Don’t worry, I called earlier and got Raphael’s approval. He’s letting me stay until dinner,”“Okay, cool,” Sierra said as she stepped back. “What’s your news?”“Here. Open it,” Rosie handed her a small shopping bag.Sierra took the bag with a suspicious look. This must be big news, she thought. Otherw
