Sweet Obsession

"What are you talking about, Thaeddus?!"

"Don't make me repeat myself."

"You can't do this to me!"

I froze at what I witnessed.

I had just opened the door to a room in the office, and a chaotic sight greeted me. The room was messy, and it looked like something undesirable had happened inside. My eyes widened when I saw a used contraceptive bag.

"Baby, what's the problem? Tell me!"

I shifted my attention back to the two people arguing in the room.

There was a woman who was nicely dressed and a man wearing only black pajamas. He had a white towel draped over his shoulder, as if he had just come out of the shower.

"Just leave, Nana. Lia doesn't want you around."

"Who's Lia?! Your whore?!" screamed the beautiful woman. My grip tightened on the door handle when I noticed the man's expression darken towards her. He looked furious, but the grin on his face remained.

He giggled softly. "You're just my whore too."

The woman flushed with anger. She stepped closer to him, making her look small in front of him. "I'm your girlfriend!"

The guy giggled again. "You hooked me for bed. Don't assume too much. Get out." He turned his back on her as if he was going to walk away, but she hugged him tightly.

"Thaeddus, please! Don't do this to me! I love you! Fix us!"

My eyes widened as the man suddenly turned around violently and pushed the woman, causing her to fall onto the bed.

That was intentional on his part, and even though it wasn't obvious, because of his size, it looked like he had slammed her down onto the bed.

"Quit it. Get out before I slam your face off!" the man said angrily.

He had his back turned to me so I couldn't see his face, but judging by the woman's sobs that were slowly turning into tears from fear-his expression must have been terrifying.

The woman stood up abruptly and grabbed her small bag roughly.

"You fucker, Thaeddus!" she yelled as she turned towards me.

I froze.

The woman stopped walking and raised an eyebrow at me. The man noticed her gaze and turned towards me as well.

Now they both had their attention on me.

I tightened my grip on the door handle even more, and my heart was pounding like crazy.

I wanted to leave moments ago, but I was still too shocked by what I saw. When I opened the door earlier, a piece of clothing had been thrown in my direction, and I didn't know which one of them did it.

"Is this Lia? Your whore?!" The woman's eyes blazed as she glared at the man.

I looked at him too, and he was definitely glaring at me with disdain.

I cleared my throat and prepared to speak because I felt like I had lost my voice from embarrassment.

"Uh... W-What..." I couldn't speak properly. My heart was racing so much that it felt like I might burst into tears from fear. "I-I'm... uh..."

"Are you Lia?!" screamed the woman. Her glare intensified towards me, so I quickly shook my head.

My gaze fell on my bag, and I hurriedly rummaged through it for my ID. I quickly held it up for them to see.

I forced myself to speak. "I-I'm the therapist that Mr. Harry hired for Mr. Levesque's physical treatment..."

Oh no.

If I'm not mistaken, the man in front of me is my client-Thaeddus Lyu Levesque...

The woman's eyebrows raised in surprise, and after a moment, she scoffed. She turned to Thaeddus and spoke up again.

"Let's talk when you're not so angry anymore." She didn't wait for Thaeddus to respond and snatched the door from me, pushing it open forcefully to get out.

I followed her with my eyes until she left the office, then I swallowed hard and faced the client.

He was now sitting with his arms crossed, his dark presence scrutinizing me.

I bit my lip nervously and pointed outside. "I-I'll just wait for you..." I said, quickly closing the door to cut off his intense gaze.

I approached the chair near the office door, feeling anxious, if he did anything harmful, I could escape quickly.

I couldn't think clearly anymore. I had been prepared earlier, but after what I witnessed, fear was consuming my entire system.

Just a few seconds later, he emerged from the small room.

I stood up immediately, gripping my bag tightly.

He was only wearing a clean white t-shirt.

I swallowed before speaking. "Uh..." he was looking at me as he walked towards the sofa next to her work table. "I'm Lavinia Faye and I'm your therapist for your physical treatment." He sat on the sofa and nodded, he crossed his arms and pointed to the sofa opposite his.

"Sit here. You're too far," his voice was soft, but his presence was filled with darkness and cruelty. His eyes were hard to look into, they felt deep and seemed to invade my soul.

I swallowed several times, debating whether to follow his instructions or not, but in the end, I complied.

Every time I glanced at him, he didn't break eye contact with me at all.

I was really uncomfortable!

"You're too small to be my therapist..." he giggled. It was clear from his tone that he was teasing me.

I sighed and tried to calm myself. "I know how to handle things based on my work," I replied tersely. He just crossed his arms again, so I continued. "Uh, I didn't mean to overhear your... uh... argument. I just followed what Mr. Harry said to me-"

"Forget it. Just get straight to your main-"

"Thaeddus!"

We both turned towards the office door when it swung open violently.

A woman rushed in and quickly sat on Thaeddus's lap, leaning against him. She was the same woman I had seen earlier in the room. She looked aggressive and ready to fight.

I stood up in fear and backed away from the three of them.

I really wanted this job to be over! If it weren't for the money, I wouldn't take this job because I already had other problems!

"What the hell!" Thaeddus's voice growled like a large animal.

My eyes widened as the two women began pulling and scratching each other.

"You're my best friend, Lia! How could you!"

"Shut up, Nana!"

I didn't want to get involved.

I hated what I was seeing.

"Cut it off!"

I was about to leave when I heard a loud crash on the floor. Something shattered along with a scream.

When I looked back, one woman had a bleeding arm while the other one was less visible as they both crashed onto the floor. They were both looking up at Thaeddus, who looked truly furious.

Thaeddus threw thick wads of cash at both women before kicking the fragile table in anger.

I screamed at the loud noise of it breaking.

"Enough with your fucking dramatic problems and leave!"
