Ch 4

                     |  Käden Ransom | 

As I stood over her nightstand watching her delicately drive the ocean of dreams , her eyes closed and her face so perfect yet peaceful like she is the most relaxed person on earth but she has no idea that I am going to turn her world so upside down . As I walk over her stuff the aroma of her fill my lungs so perfect that I would sell my fortune if I could use this as drug , she is my drug .  I sit near her leg reminding myself of how heavenly and irresistible she looked tonight wearing that lilac silk dress , it almost drove me crazy seeing her in that attire ,  breathtaking .  I did everything to make her feel comfortable in the party , arranged all her favourites , my girl looked so pretty and happy . As Scarrlet moved in her sleep I took her hand over mine and stared featuring how perfect pink diamond ring would look her finger , and as I dipped into staring at her hand I looked that how precious it was , so delicate , exactly how I want it to be , she is made for me .  I opened her phone using her passcode which I hacked into her system a few days ago to see , and saw the text I sent her , oh god she got so terrified but I don’t know where her afraid went to , god !! She looked so fricking pretty when she was scared like a  wilted rose on a snowy night . 

As I watched Scarlett's peaceful slumber, my mind began to wander back to the evening's events. I couldn't shake off the memory of Henry's charming smile and the way he effortlessly made Scarlett laugh. The way he leaned in close, his voice low and soothing, made my blood boil . I clenched my fists ,  fighting the urge to claim her , to mark her as mine. Henry's eyes locking onto Scarlett's, the way his gaze seemed to hold her captive , fueled my rage to the ultimate extent . That smile, those laughs , they belonged to me .  My obsession with Scarlett had grown exponentially, and I couldn't bear the thought of anyone else near her. Henry's charm and charisma made him a threat, a rival for Scarlett's attention . I visualized the scenarios, the countless ways I could eliminate Henry. A carefully crafted accident, a deliberate mistake, or a brutal confrontation – the options swirled in my mind . Scarlett stirred , obliviously due to the turmoil stirring within me. Her gentle murmurs and peaceful expression only strengthened my resolve . She was mine and mine only , and I would stop at nothing to keep her.

Henry's fate was sealed .  As I stood there , lost in my thought , my phone buzzed with an incoming text from my assistant’s number.

Henry's schedule for tomorrow . 

A sly smile spread across my face . 

As Scarlett's slumber deepened, I settled beside her, drinking in the radiance of her peaceful face. Moonlight danced across her features, highlighting the gentle curve of her lips and the soft flush of her cheeks . My fingers itched to trace the contours of her face, to feel the warmth of her skin beneath my touch. But I restrained myself, savoring the intimacy of this moment .  In the silence, my mind wandered to the life we would share. A life where Scarlett would be mine, completely and irrevocably. I envisioned us in a secluded villa, surrounded by lush gardens and crystal-clear waters . She would wake up every morning in my arms, her eyes sparkling with joy as I whispered sweet nothings in her ear. Our days would be filled with laughter and adventure, our nights with passion and fire . I pictured Scarlett's smile as she'd tend to our garden, nurturing the flowers and trees with the same love she'd shower on our future children. Our little family, bound together by unbreakable threads of love and devotion and complete the love we couldn’t before. 

But my fantasies took a darker turn. I saw Henry's face, twisted in a snarl as I eliminated him from the picture. Scarlett would never know the depths of my obsession, the lengths I'd go to keep her mine . My gaze returned to Scarlett, her chest rising and falling with each gentle breath. My heart swelled with adoration, with possession . She was my everything – my reason for living, my justification for the darkness within . As the night wore on, I memorized every detail of her face, every curve and contour. My fingers hovered above her skin, longing to claim her . But I waited, patient and calculating. Soon, Scarlett would awaken to a new reality, one where I was the center of her universe And when that moment arrived, I'd ensure she never escaped . My love for Scarlett was a prison, a beautiful, twisted cage that would hold her captive forever . In that moment, I knew our love story would be written in shades of darkness and obsession, with no escape from the passion that bound us , it would not be a disney movie but a dark twisted obsession .  As the first light of dawn crept into the room, I leaned in, my lips whispering against Scarlett's ear:

You are Forever MINE 

and leave her a wilted flower with a note that would bring terror in her blood and I know that she enjoys when she goes high on adrenaline , my naughty little girl . As I was almost about to leave I saw a cup on her nightstand through which she sipped her coffee , I took it , I cannot even imagine the way my body will react drinking from the same cup she uses , Uhhhh . 

I am Käden Ransom, heir to the Diamondcrest  empire. My life has been shaped by the cold, calculating gaze of my father, Viliance Ransom. Growing up, I knew only luxury and darkness. My mother's absence left a void, filled by my father's ruthless ambition . He groomed me to inherit Diamondcrest , teaching me the art of diamond cutting, polishing, and trading. "My son, survival is for the strongest," he would say. I learned to navigate the shadows, to manipulate and control. Relationships were transactional, connections fleeting . The only constant was my father's influence. His voice echoed in my mind: "Show no weakness, Käden ." I won't.

As I took the reins of Diamondcrest , his goals  became mine. I expanded the empire, forging alliances and crushing competitors. My reputation grew, but so did the emptiness within .Then , Scarlett entered my world. For the first time, I felt something I couldn't control – obsession . Her laughter, her smile, her very existence consumed me. I'd stop at nothing to make her mine. Her , with her  charming smile and effortless charm , won my heart  .I'd eliminate my father , just as I would any obstacle. My father's voice echoed in my mind: "Eliminate the threat, Käden ." I will. Diamondcrest  will continue to thrive, its reputation intact. The world will see me, the polished businessman, But beneath the façade, I'm a monster, forged in the shadows of my father's ambition And Scarlett, my beautiful captive, will soon learn the true meaning of forever . My thoughts drifted back to my childhood, to the memories of my father's lessons. He taught me to appreciate the beauty of diamonds, to see the value in their rarity But he also taught me to appreciate the beauty of power, to wield it without mercy. I am my father's son, after all . As I stood in Scarlett's bedroom, watching her peaceful slumber, I knew I'd do anything to keep her. She was my diamond, my rare and precious gem.

And I'd kill to protect her.

The darkness within me stirred, urging me to claim Scarlett once and for all But I waited, patient and calculating. Soon, Scarlett would awaken to a new reality, one where I was the center of her universe.

And when that moment arrived, I'd ensure she never escaped. My love for Scarlett was a prison, a beautiful, twisted cage that would hold her beauty forever . In that moment, I knew our love story would be written in shades of darkness and obsession . 

“ Yeah , did you cath hold of him ?” I demanded from my secretary Allentine , he was a wise and loyal man who stick to me even at my worst initial stages of life and the pain that was brought to me for my betterment. “ Yes” he answered straight to the point something I always liked in him . “ Sir , but don’t you think kidnapping the crown prince will create a stir in the environment?” he asked to me “ Then let it , let tham realise that what power I hold ” . 

To the world I was just a billionaire and a businessman who was spoiled and apparently useless but what they did not know or even imagined was that I am the strongest person amongst them , the one with most networks even in cybersecurity and in mafia businesses , I am  the king amongst everyone , the supreme . If I wanted I would erase every memory of any person I would want , then they would beg me , make me feel how powerful I am , But my true power comes to me when I go those poor children in the orphanage , children who are longing for that gentle touch that never arrives , when I go there not only they make my heart shine bright but bring tears to my eyes and honestly I am not an emotionally unstable person but this just strikes an area that no one can approach and that day when I saw Scarrlet giving those children the little joys of life it just made an extra space for her in my heart , I don’t believe in true love but if I did no doubtlessly it would be Scarrlet , she is the only key to my life , my source of happiness and my one and only warmth in the cold cruel bitter winter .
