Dark Obsession 37. Signal
~ SIERRA ~- - - - - THREE DAYS LATER - - - - -Sierra laid in bed as she mindlessly toyed with Winnie’s ball. Winnie was waiting for her under the bed, staring at the bright red ball. Every now and then, Sierra would throw the ball lamely to the floor and it would roll. Winnie would race for the ball, bite it with its mouth, and return the ball back to Sierra. This used to be a fun game and Winnie would get lots of kisses for being a good dog, but not this time. Sierra had no energy or motivation to get up from the bed. For the past three days, all she did was lay on this bed and cry herself to sleep. Sierra’s freedom was now reduced to this bedroom, at least for the time being while her dad was out on a business trip. Her dad instructed the maids and guards that Sierra wasn’t allowed to leave it under any circumstances. She also wasn’t allowed to meet anyone and she wasn’t even allowed to talk on the phone. Her dad had her phone now and that was it. Unless she had a magical owl tha
Dark Obsession 38. Option
~ SIERRA ~- - - - - THREE DAYS LATER - - - - -Sierra was losing her mind. After Rosie left her house and promised to talk to Colton three days ago, she hadn’t come back or called with any news. If Sierra had her phone back, she’d be blowing Rosie’s phone up non-stop. But since she was still on house arrest and had no access to phones or the internet, Sierra had no way of contacting her cousin. In the midst of this craziness, Sierra’s dad had also returned from his work trip and he was now busy with his annual New Year’s Eve party. Henri Ascott was known to throw big and lavish parties, but none of his parties were greater than his New Year’s Eve parties. They were always over the top, extravagant, and a lot of fun. Her dad’s NYE parties used to be a favorite event of Sierra’s, but not this year. This year, she was in no mood for parties. And who can blame her?Sierra hadn’t seen or talked to Colton in over a week now and it was driving her insane. The worst part of this whole thing
Dark Obsession 39. Overdue
~ SIERRA ~“Sierra! There you are! I’ve been looking all over for you!”Sierra couldn’t catch a break. Suddenly, the door to the emergency exit swung wide and her father was standing at the doorway. Luckily, Colton was already gone by the time Henri got there. He had swiftly jumped down the row of stairs and disappeared behind the shadows.“Dad?” she croaked.“What are you doing here?” Henri narrowed his eyes suspiciously.“Nothing, I just needed a little break,” Sierra thought fast and she took off one of her heels. “These shoes aren’t made for standing around for hours,”“Do you need a costume change? I can send someone to the house–”“No, I’ll be fine,” she waved her hand carelessly in the air and pulled her father away, leading him back outside. “I’ll just sit down or something, don’t worry about me,”“Well, okay,” Henri searched his daughter’s face, but she kept smiling reassuringly like nothing was wrong. Mainly, she just didn’t want him lurking around the emergency staircase an
Dark Obsession 40. Question
~ SIERRA ~Sierra was running like there was no tomorrow. Her heels were getting in the way, so she took them off and ran barefoot across the streets of New York City. She pushed past all the drunk tourists and the cheering crowd, and even cut through Central Park to get to the Plaza Hotel faster. Even though Colton said he would wait for her, it was already past midnight. Who knows, maybe he had left already?Sierra was all out of breath by the time she reached the Plaza Hotel’s garden. Standing under the willow tree were three guys and Sierra instantly recognized one of them. The biggest smile curved up her face as she raced over to him. The guy lifted his head up and their eyes met. His beautiful blue eyes shone as bright as the moon when he saw her, and it made Sierra’s heart explode into a million pieces like the fireworks above.“You came!” Colton beamed, opening his arms to receive her.“I came,” she squealed, pressing her body into his embrace. She linked her arms tightly arou
Dark Obsession 41. Passion
~ COLTON ~“Colton, I… I love you. And I wanna do this with you,”For the second time that night, Colton was rendered speechless. This wasn’t the first time a girl has ever confessed their feelings to him, but this was the first time that it ever mattered. His heart had literally stopped beating, his breath was caught in his throat, and all he could do was stare at her.“Will you say something? Please?” she said again, looking up at him nervously.Did you ever have something so good happen to you that you didn’t know how to react? Well, this is happening to Colton right now. His heart never felt so full and complete. Life could end right now and he wouldn’t mind it.“Colton–”Before Sierra could get another word out, Colton pulled her into his arms and crashed his lips onto her. Her body trembled as he kissed her hard and deep, but Colton only held on tighter. He knew he could just say the words back to her, but it didn’t seem like it was enough. He needed more ways to express what he
Dark Obsession 42. Affection
~ COLTON ~Dawn was breaking outside the window. This bluish and orange light was creeping up the night sky, signaling the beginning of yet another day. Colton stirred in his bed and caught sight of the clock on the wall, 6:30 AM, it said. "Mmhm," Sierra mumbled as she felt Colton's movement. Colton turned his gaze to her, the beautiful girl sleeping soundly next to him. Sierra was passed out like a baby. Maybe last night took a toll on her? Last night was... a lot of fun, to say the least. Colton was getting hard all over again just thinking about it, replaying the events that happened in front of the fireplace. God, she's just so damn beautiful.Colton found himself staring and marveling at the sight of her. Her slender, naked body was covered partly by the flimsy satin sheet. He noted the curves of her body, the way her skin glowed under the sunlight, and how her cheeks were flushed in a beautiful shade of pink. After he spent a long time just staring at her, Colton felt the ne
Dark Obsession 43. Newness
~ COLTON ~“Someone had a great night last night,” Jackson snickered as Colton entered the house. He was sitting on the chair next to the couch in the living room, and Levi was sitting on the chair next to him. “Y’all pretty much ruined the couch,” he added with a playful grin, motioning to the bloodstain marking the leather couch. The blood had dried up and it was pretty much a permanent stain at this point.“Screw the damn couch,” Colton rolled his eyes lazily and threw a blanket over the mark.“Took you a while, but you finally did it,” Jackson stood up and started clapping his hands. Then he strode over to Colton and put an arm around his cousin’s shoulder. “I gotta hand it to you, Colt. You handsome son of a gun!”“Mind your own goddamn business, Jack,” Colton shoved Jackson away and walked towards the stairs. He thought it was juvenile that Jackson was celebrating him getting a girl’s virginity like some frat boy in a fraternity.“Hey, don’t get pissed off at me. We flew a damn
Dark Obsession 44. Covert
~ SIERRA ~- - - - - ONE WEEK LATER - - - - -Sierra laid in her bed with her eyes glued to the clock on the wall. With each second that passed, her heart was beating faster and faster. The time was now 11:59 PM. In just one more minute, the guards in her house would be changing shifts, so it would be the perfect time for her to slip out and escape.Why does she need to escape, you may ask?First of all, it had been one whole week since she last saw Colton. Second of all, she was missing him like crazy every day, it was getting unbearable. If it were up to her, she’d come over to his place every chance she could. Unfortunately, her dad was still watching her every move, and school was still on break, so she had no excuse to go out. There were also no big parties to attend, so Sierra had to come up with a way out on her own. “12 AM!” Sierra screamed internally as she watched the clock change.Not wasting another second, she threw open the blanket covering her body and revealed that sh
