Obsession

Obsessed – to be preoccupied or fill the mind with someone continually and to a troubling extent.

As soon as I realized she existed, I lost the ability to look away. She was always destined to be mine.

I’m Sebastian Lockwood; a king among men. And kings get to take what they want.

My little bird disagreed.

She fought me, disobeyed me even though we both know she belongs to me.

So I broke her, bent her to my will.

I pushed too hard, loved too much and she ran from me.

But letting her go was impossible. So I chased; hiding in the shadows, silently pulling the strings that would bind her to me.

Two years have passed, I’ve waited long enough. It’s time to reclaim my queen; to take what’s mine.

The trap is set, a gilded cage worthy of royalty and only I have the key.

I’ll make her pay for leaving me. I’ll make her love me, want me as much as I do her.

I couldn’t stop if I tried.

She’s my obsession.

Obligation

Obligation - an act or course of action to which a person is morally or legally bound; a duty or commitment.

As soon as I saw her, I knew exactly who she was. A snake, born with venom in her blood and poison in her veins.

I’m Clay Jansen, a king among men. But wearing the crown means dealing with the duty and expectation that’s been mine since birth.

January Burke is nothing more than an obligation; a business deal that was sealed with vows not contracts.

But my poisonous new bride is a snake, bred from a den of vipers.

Family expectation might have forced me to entwine my life with hers, but I won’t be taken in by the good girl façade she’s wearing.

So I watch her. Play with her until I know every move she makes, and every word she says. But once I see her, it’s impossible to look away.

Freedom is all she craves and the only thing I can’t give her.

I should let her go, but I couldn’t if I tried.

Obligation has become obsession… and she’s all mine.
