Obsession Series 8 People ask me, "Why aren't you one of the Montelust Men?" Simple. I don't need a title to matter. I'm Condrad Santino-the one they call when shit gets real. I fix things. I clean up messes. I disappear problems before they hit the surface. I don't live in the spotlight. I live in the shadows. They toast champagne. I carry silencers. They fall in love. I vanish before anything gets too close. Or at least... I used to. She changed that. The Lady in Red. I met her during a surveillance op at a masquerade ball. I was supposed to watch from above-no contact, no distraction. Then she walked in. Red silk. Black mask. Amber eyes that locked with mine across the room. And just like that-I forgot the mission. We danced once. Brief. Electric. Her touch burned. Her scent lingered. She said nothing real, gave no name. But I didn't need one. She felt like something I hadn't known I was missing. Then she disappeared. Moments later, chaos broke out. One of our targets went dark. When I turned back-she was gone. No trace. No face. Just eyes burned into my memory. I've been chasing her ever since. No ID. No leads. Just a ghost in red. People say I'm insane. That it was a fling. A dream. But I know better. She was more. She was hiding something. But I'm not backing down. I don't care if I burn the world to find her. Because once you've danced with fate- You never forget the music. And I sure as hell won't stop... Until she's back in my arms.

"You were a nurse, no?" I asked her. "Now, I am a stripper." She replied with a hint of agitation in her tone. At loss of words, I stayed quiet as she turned to walk away. Even in the dark sky of light, I could make out her perfectly carved figure and with a newfound interest, I started to walk behind her. She turned around with a frown marred on her face, "Don't follow me." I grabbed the back of her head and pushed her against the wall, "What are you doing here?" Her violet eyes lit up with a fire, "I don't see how that's your business." Her voice was naturally soft but her tone was harsh. And that ticked me off. Pressing my body against hers, I answered, "You are my business, Rheannon. I own that club." I could feel the rapid rise of her breathing just before she pushed me away, "You own that club, Angelo. Not me." Saying that, she ran away. - Rheannon Aurora Pallas, an excellent nurse who have always outdone her duties, had to leave the hospital she worked at as well as the country she called home. New York City may sound like a dream but hidden in shadows are some of the most monstrous human beings. And it took Rheannon only one night to figure that out. And now that she was here, she could not leave. Not until she finds the person she's looking for. Enter Angelo Petrakis, renowned businessman in the day and a drug smuggler by the night. Oh, and did I mention that he is also the patient she once nursed and the man who owns the strip club she works at? No? Well, there's always a first time for everything. When they first met, they hated each other with a passion. But, maybe, just maybe that passion can give birth to an emotion that they both are unaware of. After all, love can be found in the most unexpected of places. --- It's a Spin-off to Sinbound & can be read as a Stand Alone.
