Haunting Adeline by H.D. Carlton

The Manipulator

 

I can manipulate the emotions of anyone who lets me.

 

I will make you hurt, make you cry, make you laugh and sigh.

 

But my words don’t affect him. Especially not when I plead for him to leave.

 

He’s always there, watching and waiting.

 

And I can never look away.

 

Not when I want him to come closer.

 

 

 

The Shadow

 

I didn’t mean to fall in love.

 

But now that I have, I can’t stay away.

 

I’m mesmerized by her smile, by her eyes, and the way she moves.

 

The way she undresses…

 

I’ll keep watching and waiting. Until I can make her mine.

 

And once she is, I’ll never let her go.

 

Not even when she begs me to.
