All Chapters of Sweet Obsession: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

(Embry's POV)December 18th. The atmosphere around the place was amazing as everybody was on the countdown to Christmas. The apartment felt so homely with all the decorations and lights, it was becoming my safe place. Indigo had promised that Noah wouldn't be coming around anytime soon, at least not until after Christmas, and I trusted her so my paranoia had decreased a lot, for the most part. It was three days ago when that weird man came into the parlour and I was right, I hadn't seen him since, but I sure did hear a lot about him.And by the look on Indigo's face as she walked in I knew this would be one of those times. "He came by again" she sighed as I could feel that familiar dread expand inside of me. "What did you tell him?" Worry coating my face, as I dropped into the chair at the table, following my lead she sat beside me, her brows creased with worry. "The same thing I tell him every time, that you aren't here anymore," gnawing at my lip in distress, I looked over to her. "

(Embry's POV)My head was spinning with everything that was going on, my eyes flitting from the man to the phone. My heart felt as though it was beating fast enough that it would explode right in my chest. I couldn't do this, I couldn't do this.Staggering into the bedroom, blood still heavy on my skin, I threw a bunch of clothes into the first bag I saw, I had no money, I had no plan, I had no place to go and right now I had no faith in myself. "I want my mom" I cried out, clutching the bed for support, as my emotions suffocated me from the inside.Throwing random things inside the bag, my ribs ached with all the wailing that I couldn't suppress. "This is all your fault Embry" I whispered, staring blankly at my hands, the same hands that held the gun and stole a life. A million voices were screaming at me in my mind,"Just go with Noah, he's the only one that could love a murderer like you.""Run, Embry, run.""Sebastian will save you""Of course Noah's your soulmate, you're just lik

(Embry's POV)My throat was painfully dry as I was held inches from his seething form, my hand clutching onto the hand which contained my hair in a firm grip. No matter how much I tried, I couldn't seem to form any words, nothing was coming out.My tears ran wildly down my face at the pain and panic coursing through me as I swung my head back and forth in denial of his claims. It was true, but there was no possible way for him to know that right? No, no he couldn't, it was impossible. "It was just kissing, I swear, I promise, please" I spluttered, my eyes shut tightly as I could no longer look at him."I wouldn't do that to you Noah, I want- I want you to be my first" I sobbed, praying I sounded convincing. Relief crashed like a wave through my body as he released his grip on my hair, I could still feel the presence of his face right in front of mine as I slowly opened my eyes."How do I know you're not lying?" He growled, becoming suddenly uncomfortable with my nudity, I crossed my a

(Noah's POV)Balancing the tray of food in my hand, I unlocked the door and pushed it open with my foot. The sight I was met with was interesting to say the least, her soft singing met my ears as she remained lying inhumanly still on the floor in front of me. Wearing nothing but a t-shirt of mine. Placing the tray down on the desk, I stood silently and watched her, not wanting to interrupt her moment."Couldn't really love you any moreYou've become my ceilingI don't think I love you anymoreThat gold mine changed youYou don't have to hold me anymoreOur cave's collapsing""I don't want to be me anymore"I wasn't really sure if she was even aware I had entered the room, her song coming out in a quiet broken whisper. A lone tear making it's trail down the side of her head, landing on the floor beneath her."Hey baby, you okay?" Her blank stare hit me hard as she sat up, weakly nodding. I could feel myself physically recoil at how broken she looked. Usually I would have been happy to

(Embry's POV)"Crap Sebastian, I can't do this with you, really I-I can't" I shuddered, ducking under his arm as I rushed to the other side of the room. I observed him nervously as he stood as well, only now realising how intimidating his height was. "Stop fighting it Embry, don't you want somebody to just take care of you, I'm not like Noah, you'll never have to fear me snapping at you, let me protect you, let me hold you, let me nurture you like you deserve."My tears were falling at a rapid pace with the intensity of my inner turmoil. It all sounded so nice, but I couldn't. I knew he had to leave soon because I was slipping. I always fell for this. But it was so easy to, it was so painfully simple to give in.I held my hands out in front of me as a warning for him to stand back as he treaded carefully towards me. I couldn't afford him touching me, I was like putty in his hands. "I know you Embry, you've spent your whole life taking care of other people, making sure they were okay a
