Haunting Adeline by HD 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.

But now that I have, I can’t stay away. I’m mesmerized by her smile, by her eyes, and the ways 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…
