Heartstrings (BEYNIKA ONESHOTS)

6. Wicked Ways

Wicked Ways.

She is my unhealthy obsession, I have tried times and times to tame my wicked ways of watching her, hovering over her, shadowing her every move wherever she went and set foot, but I couldn't. She was essential to my being, and she was oblivious to it. Her naive nature to the dangers of the real world outside of the patients she treats was something alarming, endearing sometimes, yet concerning, for how could she not know.. or sense that someone is stalking her? Didn't they teach her this back in London, where she graduated? I guess those sly bastards weren't all so sly after all.

Doctor Onika Maraj wasn't only a skilled psychiatrist, she was my deepest desire, my darkest secret that I'd do anything to let her light shine upon. She haunts me, yet she doesn't even know I exist. All it took for me to become hooked on her was one glance at her beautiful face with her prominent dimples that bored into it, and her fine figure that teased me every time I closed my eyes.

She was right there, yet I couldn't have her. I was her shadow for so long, always falling into one step behind her. But this changes today, I want her to see me, to know of me, and of my existence, not in the same way I do to hers, for she might freak the fuck out before I'd even allow myself to explain it all, and I don't want to risk it all. I'm saying this, but I do know that my blunt cunning manners will overtake me and I will spit it out regardless.

I shook my head to clear my thoughts as I got out of my black Bugatti, and stepped inside the luxurious facility of mine. I have built, designed, and decorated the place years ago, to shelter every unstable person that was going through something. And clearly, I was belonging here lately as well. I've made sure that this place was well looked after, and in result, we are one of the top 3 mental health institutions in the country, and we ain't number 3. I'm never anything beneath number one.

"Welcome, Ms. Knowles." Meanna, one of my assistants said as she smiled at me, making me nod my head her way in return. "Doctor Maraj is waiting for you in her office." She added as she gestured towards the elevator, I thanked her and went exactly towards it.

And this is another reason of me admitting that my place should've been at my own facility. Granted, my place's achievements speak for itself, but, I did go a bit out of my way to make sure that Onika will be working nowhere else but here. She deserves to be by my side, right where she belongs. I looked myself over in the mirror, I looked perfect. I had on a tailored black suit with a plunging V where a diamond necklace adorned my neck, my hair was straighter than my orientation, and my lovely black shades were on.
