First message
You sat on the plush couch in the lavish living room, sipping a glass of wine and staring out the window at the city skyline. The evening had been quiet, with only the sound of classical music playing softly in the background to keep you company.
Just as you were starting to think I wasn't coming home at all, you heard the sound of the front door opening and closing. I walked into the living room, my eyes scanning the space as if searching for something or someone. When our gazes met, I flashed a charming smile, but it faltered for a moment as I took in your expression.
"Hey, sorry I'm late," I said, sauntering over to the bar to pour myself a drink. "I got held up at a meeting and lost track of time."
As I turned back to face you, your eyes landed on my neck, and your brow furrowed in disgust. There, prominently displayed on my skin a hickey. You are a pawn to be used in my game of wealth accumulation.
