Forbidden Sins

Something in the Shadows

"And what do you think you're doing?" Brian said coming into the bedroom.

Skylar smiled as she threw more clothes in her bag. "Whats it look like I'm doing." She giggled, "Packing."

"Why?" He asked shoving her bag back on the floor.

"I'm starting to think I'm being held hostage." She joked as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"And what if you are?" He asked gently kissing her forehead.

"I have to go home at some point. I've been here for three days baby. She told him. "Aren't you sick of me yet?" She laughed.

"Not yet, couple more days til then." He smiled.

"Seriously I should go home, I haven't been to my apartment in days. What about my poor plants, no ones watered them." She pouted.

Brian rolled his eyes at the idea of a couple house plants being more important than him. It had been a few days since Brian walked into Sapphire basically threatening Rocco, and Skylar had been staying at his house since. They went to work together and Brian even dropped her off at her night class and picked her up last night. Normally spending so much time with someone around the clock would have gotten annoying to him by now but not with Skylar. He also didn't wanna tell her but until the dust had settled he felt more comfortable having Skylar in his sights. This Rocco guy seemed like a loose cannon.

"Let me grab my keys, I'll take you home." He said giving her another kiss.

They stopped for an early dinner before heading to her apartment. However once they reached her front door and the knob was loose, they knew something was wrong.

They exchanged glances and Brian immediately stepped forward grabbing Skylar and swinging her body behind his. He nudged the door open and told her to wait outside in the hall.

Brian took a look around the apartment but everything seemed in its place. Her television and iPad were still there so he doubted it was a random break in or else these valuables would have been missing.

"Is anything missing?" She asked coming up from behind him.

"What part of stay outside did you not understand?" He snapped. This girl never listened to him.

Brian continued searching around the apartment and was starting to think perhaps Skylar had left her door unlocked and it blew open. That was until he entered her bedroom. Her nightstand contents were spilled out onto the floor but when he glanced over and saw her underwear draw ripped apart he nearly combusted right there. "You motherfucker." He said outloud. The thought of this asshole in her apartment going through and touching all her bras and panties was making his blood boil.

"It's him isn't it?" Skylar said coming into her bedroom. Never in her life had she felt so violated.

"Unless you got some other sicko out there playing with your panties, I'm assuming so." Brian barked. When he saw that his comments made Skylar flinch in surprise he took a deep breath to calm himself. "Sorry, I'm mad at this asshole, not you."

"How does he even know where I live?" Skylar asked.

"You worked for him, of course he has your address." Brian responded.

Skylar bent down to try and clean up the mess but Brian stopped her. "Don't touch anything, I'm gonna call a cop friend of mine."

Luckily Brian certainly had friends in the right places and within an hour, a detective friend from the NYPD was there with a team fingering printing Skylar's apartment. Definitely wasn't the proudest moment of her life having New York's finest seeing her underwear drawer open but Skylar let them do what they had to.
