Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Under The Devil's Thumb
They didn’t know. None of them knew who they were applauding for. They were literally clapping for the devil. Her walk to the standing mic was elegant and confident. Her smile was as sharp as a knife and her dress was stunning. She had not looked in our direction yet but I had a strong feeling that she already knew that we were here. When the applause stopped, I kept staring at her. The police chief? Working with the FBI? What kind of twisted and sick game was this? I must have been sleeping and all this was just a huge nightmare. When I felt Chris’s gaze on me, I looked back at him. “Are you okay?” He asked lowly as Fallon gave her speech about justice and other things that made me so confused as to how all of this was possible. Did she have a twin? Was the person on the stage right now just a lookalike?“You look like you have seen a ghost,” He chuckled the words out. I broke eye contact with him and looked back at the women on the stage, trying to see if I was not hallucinatin
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity A New Deal
Fallon chuckled, a sound that sent chills down my spine. “Let’s just say that I have my ways of finding things out. You should know better than to underestimate me, Linda.”“I can’t believe how dumb you are, you really told your husband. Do you really think that he would look at you the same anymore?” She continued, and my mind played when I had tried to kiss him and he had pulled away. I backed away further, feeling the cold sink pressing against my back. Panic surged through me as I realized the heaviness of the situation. I had not only to pout myself but put Chris in danger by revealing too much. “I don’t understand. There is no way that you could have known.” I shook my head slowly, still trying to understand. “Are you spying on me?” That was the only explanation that I could come up with and a valid one that I would not even put past her. She smirked. “Yes, I am spying on you,” She replied with a firm and confident tone. “What are you going to do about it? Oh, yeah, not a dam
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Torn Loyalties
My mind raced with conflicting thoughts and emotions. On one hand, the idea of being free from Fallon's grip was tempting. To return to a normal life, to put all of this behind me…it was almost too good to be true. But on the other hand, I could not shake the feeling that making another deal with her would only drag me deeper into her web of lies and manipulation. So what was I going to do? Trust her and make the deal? Or just stick to the same deal that I already had with her?I took a deep breath, trying to steady my nerves. “What…what is it that you want me to do?” I asked, my voice a bit low. Her smile widened a glint of triumph in her eyes. “There’s a man, a powerful and rich man, who’s been causing me a great deal of trouble. This is a bit personal because he hurt me and my family, even though he does not know that. I want you to take care of him for me.” My blood ran cold at her words. I had already crossed a line by taking lives at her behest, but to do it again…I was not
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity The Suspicious Folder
“I was so worried about you,” Chris murmured, his voice laced with relief. “When you didn’t come back, I thought something terrible had happened.” I leaned into his embrace as he held me in his arms once again, seeking solace in his warmth. “I’m sorry, I came to the bathroom and then I saw her.” I did not even have to say her name, I knew that Chris would know who I was talking about. “Are you sure that you’re okay and that she did not do a thing to you?” I shook my head, breaking the embrace. “I’m fine, I promise you.” I chuckled lightly as I put some of the rogue strands of my hair behind my ears. “Did she say anything? You were in here for a while.” My mind played Fallon’s words and I felt a bit nauseous. I could not stop thinking of the deal that she had offered me. It seemed so good but at the same time, what I had to do to get that deal sealed sickened me. “She didn’t say much. She did tell me that she had a bug on my phone and that I should not in any way remove it. She h
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Tangled In The Hidden
With trembling hands, I flipped through the documents, my heart pounding as I tried to chew on mentally what had just happened. Wait…hold on. So that meant that that was not an accident. That had been planned. That guy had purposely allowed me to bump into me. Who knew how long he must have been waiting for me?And how in the world did he know that I was going to come for a run? Or even use this direction. Sh*t…Fallon. How could I be so forgetful? The bug that she had on my phone. She obviously had heard something that I may have said to Chris or one of the staff at the mansion before leaving that made her say that I was going for a run. Or maybe, my rapid breathing and she could also have a tracker on there too. Damn, this made me feel a bit unsafe. But the only thing that was giving me solace at that moment was the fact that I knew that she did not want to harm me, she only needed my help. I decided to head into a small coffee shop that was not far from where I was standing. I
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Plan goes To Sh*t
As Chris continued to banter lightly, my mind raced with strategies to erase the security footage without raising any red flags. I could not afford for him to stumble upon any evidence that would lead back to the mysterious folder that I had gotten in a very weird way. “You should go and shower, you smell like a sewer,” I joked, and he rolled his eye playfully, pulling me in for a hug that gave me no chance to escape. “But that’s what you like, don’t you?” He went along with the joke and I could not help but chuckle freely. Then I felt something poking me. I pulled away and gave him a look as he smirked. “Not happening, you better go and shower, young man.” He whined like a little child, “Come on, please. You have already woken him up.” He nodded at his boner. I scoffed faintly before laughing lightly. “I did not wake anyone up. Your guy down there should be accountable for his own actions.” I shrugged as I escaped his embrace. “Plus, you have not been going to work or doing anyt
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity The Security Room
With a renewed determination, I set out to find a way to access the security room without raising any suspicions. I knew I had to tread carefully, but I was willing to take the risk if it meant Chris not finding out about the deal that Fallon had offered me. I did not know if he was done with his shower yet but I did know that he was going to be stuck in that room to do some work after the bathroom. So I knew that I had some time. I proceeded to leave the hallway, heading on the little mission that I had found for myself. I could feel the anxiety but the thing was that it was now getting normal for me. You see, for the past few days, I had been swamped with anxiety and fear. Over and over. So the thing was my body was getting kind of used to it at this point. I exited the huge house and I approached the security building that was found in another building not far from the residential area. I tried to keep my movements casual as if I belonged there. I knew that appearing too nervo
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity The Real Truth
I was back in the mansion in no time. Chris was not in our room anymore but was rather in the living room. I stopped by and said, “Still doing the work that you have been putting off all because you wanted to be a good husband?” “I am a good husband,” He replied, humor in his voice. I could not help but chuckle in response. “Of course, you are. You’re perfect,” I said as I closed the distance between him and me, planting a kiss on his forehead. I knew him to be perfect. And when I say perfect, I was not talking about the dictionary meaning of that. I felt like in his own way, he was perfect. I was glad that I met him and wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. Fallon only wanted to come between us. She had already done enough by making me so many disgusting things. Now, what she wanted to do was break up my marriage by planting lies and deceit. And even though I was tempted to believe. Or tempted to want to find out, that did not mean that I would. I knew that it would not be righ
