THE DEVIL'S OBSESSION

CHAPTER TWO

I woke up as sore as ever the next morning... or whatever the time was. My neck had a crick in it and my muscles felt like they had been run over by a train a few dozen times. My muscles ache so badly... Was I running a marathon in my dream?With a slight headache, s**t my body aches all over. I groaned and opened my eyes with a hand protecting my eyes from the sunlight because of the opened window. I tried sitting up…but damn ‘I think I was hit by an elephant, my body feels heavy’.

I looked around the dim room with the sun coming through the open window the only source of light.

Apart from my body aching all over what is surprising is the man sleeping next to me, his hand holding down my waist tightly.

I wasn't in my dorm and I was naked in a man's arms. I quickly sat up, which I regretted immediately. My waist ache and I feel pain and discomfort all over that area…you know that area, right?. With a wince, I looked around the large expensive looking room and finally my eyes fell on the stranger who I just spent the night with, his eyes closed and his dark hair all over his face. ‘I think I'm dead, how can I see an angel’. I must be dreaming right? I didn't just sleep with any man right? I'm just being paranoid right? I pinched my arm and oh God it stings.

I didn't waste time and slowly stood up from the bed to avoid waking the stranger. I just slept with a man not even 24hrs since I broke up with my boyfriend. “Now who is the real jerk”.

All I want is just to dress and sneak out and never see this stranger again. I must have eaten bad luck. Can someone tell me why my clothes look like a rag? ‘Just what in the world happened last night?’. Just as I was about to give up the idea of sneaking out I saw a white shirt lying on the small couch.

“I'm sorry stranger, I'm not stealing it I promise”

I whispered then took my heels that were sitting on the floor. I opened the door and every step was punishment. I think I will be limping for days. Just as I was about to leave I looked around the room again. Why? Well my bag.

If I can't find my bag I can't reach my dorm nor my house. I need money and keys.

I quickly moved back to the bed stand and took some cash from the black wallet. Damn the money here is up to a 5 years allowance of mine.

“I promise I am not stealing it, when we meet again I will pay you back stranger.”

With that I quickly ran out…well limped out. I was surprised when I found out that we were still in the club. ‘Are you kidding me?’.

Since I couldn't find my bag that contained my dorm key. I have no other choice than to go back home.

I just took a taxi. I hope my parents are not up, it's still early.

Inside the taxi because of the way I was sitting, my thine was almost bare. Realization hit me, I was wearing nothing underneath.

The driver chuckled as he looked at me. I want to ask what is funny. ‘You think wearing a shirt, carrying heels in your hand and hair looking Soo messy isn't funny’ I mentally screamed at myself.

“Kids these days are so wild” the driver muttered and laughed lightly…God I'm embarrassed.

I shrank in my seat using my hand to pull my hair so it can cover my face.

That man is a demon, how dare he take advantage of a drunk girl…he is lucky I am not suing him. ‘that bastard’. I muttered under my breath.

Immediately the taxi reached the location of my house, I jumped out without hesitation.

I took the key which was under the flower that was sitting as a design in front of the house.

I say some prayers before finally opening it but luck is really playing me, cause why is my brother in front of me.

“I'm not seeing things right”. Ethan asked with a smirk.

“Yes you are, I'm a ghost” I replied quickly.

“I don't think so, a ghost can't be this stupid”.

“Keep your voice down please” I desperately begged.

“Mummybear what are you doing at home, aren't you supposed to be in school?” Ethan asked with a raised eyebrow.

“W…well I just decided to come home, I missed everyone”. I stutter.

“Oh really? You came home because you missed us? Isn't that great and beautiful?” He smirked. “Where are you coming from and what the f**k are you putting on?.” He asked with the smirk still on.

“Please keep your voice down.” I quickly covered his mouth to keep him quiet. “I am coming from Royal’s condo.” I lied with a smile.

“Oh really?.” He smirked again.

Shit he knows.

“I am coming from the club.” I said bowing my head in shame.

He widened his eyes in shock.“A club?.” He questioned. “You went to a club? You the book worm, the introvert went to a club” he screamed again.

“Keep your voice down Coco.” I pleaded anxiously.

“Come to think of it, what are you wearing? And you said you are coming from the club. With how possessive Royal is I don't think he would let you go to a club alone and wait…is that a hickey on your neck?” He screamed louder.

“Ethan, why are you screaming, is everything okay down there?.” I heard my mom's voice piece through the walls.

I might get in trouble if mom sees me like this. I can't believe I slept with a stranger.

I quickly pleaded with Ethan to help me. “Yes mom I'm just on a call.” Ethan shouted.

“So will you say what happened or you want me to call mom down here.” He asked, smirking.

This is so embarrassing.

“I went to a club yesterday and I don't know how or what happened but this morning I woke up on a bed with a man…” I muttered.

“Damn that is…” He screamed again much louder.

“Coco, please keep your voice down”

“So does that mean you have broken up with Royal.” He asked, smirking.

“We already broke up yesterday.” I said sadly.

“You what?.” He asked, looking so shocked.

“I'm going to my room.” I quickly muttered and ran upstairs.

I must have looked stupid and senseless. I dreamed of marrying someone that doesn't even love me.

Such a jerk.

Kingswell Group

*******

The office looked breathtakingly luxurious, with polished marble floors that reflected the warm golden lights hanging above. Floor-to-ceiling glass windows surrounded one side of the room, offering a clear view of the city skyline. The walls were painted in deep neutral tones, giving the space a modern yet intimidating appearance. Everything about the office screamed wealth, power, and elegance.

At the center of the ceiling hung a magnificent crystal chandelier that immediately drew attention. Its golden light spread softly across the room, making the office glow with quiet sophistication. The crystals sparkled beautifully whenever light touched them, creating tiny reflections on the marble floor below. It looked expensive enough to belong in a royal palace rather than an office.

The aura of the room felt cold, powerful, and strangely commanding. The silence inside was almost unsettling, broken only by the soft hum of the air conditioner. A faint scent of sandalwood and expensive cologne lingered in the air, adding to the rich atmosphere. The office carried the kind of presence that made anyone who entered instantly nervous and careful with their words.

Every item in the room was placed with perfect precision. A massive black desk rested at the center, holding only a silver laptop, neatly arranged files, and a crystal pen holder. Behind it stood a tall leather chair that looked more like a throne. On one side of the office were cream-colored couches and a glass table, while the other side held shelves decorated with awards, books, and framed photographs.

And inside was KILLIAN RAYMOND, seated behind the massive desk with a file resting in his hand. His sharp eyes scanned through the documents calmly, his expression unreadable. Dressed in a perfectly tailored black suit, he looked every bit as powerful as the office itself.

His posture screamed authority. The way he sat straight-backed, composed, and effortlessly intimidating carried the quiet confidence of a man who was used to being obeyed. Even without speaking, his presence alone was enough to make the atmosphere feel heavy.

“This was everything I found, Boss.” Zero replied professionally.

“interesting.” He smirked. “What is my schedule like today?” He added.

“A meeting with the Africa team and dinner with Madam Rosie.” Zero said.

“Cancel the dinner, and the meeting takes over. It seems I will be very busy from now on with this little kitten. He muttered with a smirk.

“Okay boss.” Zero replied.

“Found you kitten. No playing hide and seek any more.”

*****”

I did my morning routine and get dressed in a some button up sleeve shirt and some short.

I tilt my head looking at the marks all over my neck. Not only on my neck, I was shocked in the bathroom. Some were even on my…gosh.

That bastard

“Ella come down and eat before it gets cold’’ I heard Mom's voice from down.

I quickly cross checked myself in the mirror making sure the red print on me wasn't showing before running downstair to eat.

“Good morning dad, mom.” I muttered a greeting before sitting down on one of the empty chairs in the dining.

They both looked at me with a smile dancing on their lips. “You are barely home because of school, I'm surprised you came this morning and you didn't even inform us” I heard my dad say.

I couldn't help but giggle awkwardly. “I just missed home and it almost weekend so I decided to come home.”

I could see the grin on Ethan's face right now even when I'm not looking at him.

My mom giggled happily, content with the answer I gave “What about your classes? Missing classes isn't good especially since you are almost in your final year.” She quickly said with a frown.

“Today's is Thursday mom, I don't have classes tomorrow and Saturday.” Well it not completely a lie. I don't have classes on this days, I always spent my weekend with Raymond so I'm not surprised they didn't know.

“Don't worry mom, you will see her often from now on .” Ethan said with a little chuckle.

These brat.

"So how is your relationship with that spoiled brat you call your boyfriend" My mom asked still focusing on the plate in front of her.

I didn't bother lying, if my family hate him this much then I should give them the relief from the break up. "We broke up already" I said without letting my voice waver.

"Okay....wait you did what?" My mom replied well shouted in shock.

"I found out he was cheating on me yesterday," i sound almost like a whispered "I'm sorry I never listened when you try talking to me about him"

"I told you, a mother's instinct is never wrong, don't you dare cry for that forbidden sacrifice, you are too beautiful for that." my mom said with a smile.

"Remember you are daddy's beautiful daughter, don't let a man that is not worth it strip you out of your worth sweetheart." My dad joined in with his word of encouragement making my heart swell.

"Thank you mom, thank you daddy."

"Is that all" Ethan teasing voice said.

I laughed nervously and gave him a glare. "Just shut up and eat your meal before it gets cold."

He smirked smugly.

"How is school?" I asked trying to ease the tension in the room.

"Well... stressful as usual." He grumble.

"Oh that reminds me... me and your dad are thinking about going to Spain for our anniversary, we were worrying about the house but since you both are here nothing to worry about. "

"Just immigrate to Spain, this is the 5th time you are going to Spain this year." Ethan said with a mumble.

"It's not my fault sweetheart, me and your mother just love it there" My dad replied smiling.

Then we ate in complete silence.

'You are taking my fingers so well, aren't you such a good girl.'

Shit where did that come from? I hold my head in haze as everything that happened last night rushed back to me. s**t tell me I didn't do that.

Flashback

Vip Room

******

Still drunk my words stumbled together. “Thankyousomuchfor…” I couldn't finish my statement before it all came out. I puked on the person in front of me and on myself. “Ohmygod, I'm…bwah”

“You are so gonna pay for this kitten. Come let's get you cleaned up” My knight in armor said before going into somewhere I think was the bathroom. His voice sending chills to my body.

It so hot.

I didn't waste time in removing all the cloth I was wearing leaving me in only my undies. I breath in a sign of relief…much better. “Thatpieceofshit. Howdarehecheatonme?” I mumbled. “becauseofsex?icouldalsogiveittohim.” I almost yelled bitterly with my words still coming out in boo-boo.

By now my prince In armor was back. My eyes were blurry because of the tears slipping out.

Third person pov

********

The surprise was boldly written on Killian face upon his return to see the almost naked drunk person who was now crying.

“F**k kitten, you are tempting me in a way that is too much to ignore” He said with lust in his voice. I would love to take you against the damn wall and f**k the s**t out of you until you are squirming to stop. I would pound your soul out of you while you scream for me to stop,” He whispered “Don't tempt me baby.” The innocent college girl eyes widen in shock.

“Youwantofuckme?” She asked innocently.

“Yes baby, so don't tempt me” the man said with a smirk.

“It okay if you want to f**k me” She said with her words coming out more clearly.

“s**t you are driving me crazy kitten” the man muttered, ignored her words and continued to clean her up. But to his uttermost surprise she started crying but very loud.

“Youdontwantme” she said with her words stumbling together again. Her voice coming out very loudly.

“Why would you say that baby? Of course I do?”

“Then why don't you want to do it with me? I'm I ugly? Is that why he cheated because I'm ugly? I'm not appealing enough for him to want to have s*x with me” she wailed.

“Who?” The man voice came out cold and dark.

Isabella sniffed “My b…boyfriend”

Ohhhh
