Ex Husband’s Regret: He Wants Me Back
“What do you want, Piccola?” He asked, giving my pussy a small lick.
I shuddered, my eyes rolling back, my core begging to be attended to.
“Darius, please.” I muffled a moan, shamelessly lifting to get contact.
I was desperate and dying for a release, but Darius was hell-bent on torturing me.
“What do you want? Use words,” he asks, his thumb caressing my core.

Chapter: 52. Ex wife Rachel’s POVI stepped out of the bathroom, the steam from my long shower still clinging to my skin, my hair was wrapped in a towel, my body covered in red silk lingerie that made me feel comfortable. My eyes land on a farmilar figure, one which I’ve been hiding from for the past two days.Darius. He was seating on the edge of my bed, waiting for me. My heart dropped to my stomach. It had been two days since Victoria showed me that picture and every since I’ve been avoiding him. My chest aching every time I looked at him. He stood up the second he saw me, his dark eyes searching my face. "Rachel," he said, his voice rough. I forced myself to walk past him, pretending to fix the towel on my head so I wouldn’t have to look at him. "You’re home early." "I came home for you," he said. I froze. Then I kept moving, going to my dresser like I wasn’t shaking inside. "I’m fine. You didn’t have to." "Rachel." His hand caught my wrist, gentle but firm. I didn’t pull away

Rachel’s POVI walked into the company building, my head held high, I woke up very late thanks to Darius of course, I was still sore but I had an important meeting I couldn’t miss. The weekend had been amazing, we had a lot of bonding time, and everyday Darius never fails to make me love him again. My thoughts come to a halt as I turned to a corner and bumped straight into Victoria. She smirked, her red lips curling like she had been waiting for me. "Well, well. Look who’s here." I clenched my jaw and stepped around her. "Move, Victoria." She grabbed my arm, her nails digging into my skin. "Not so fast, slut." I yanked my arm away, glaring. "What the hell is your problem? What are you doing in my company?” Victoria laughed, cold and mean. "My problem? Oh, Rachel. You really are stupid, aren’t you?" I didn’t answer, I just stared at her, waiting for whatever poison she was about to spill. She pulled out her phone, tapping the screen. Then she shoved it in my face. "Reco

Chapter: 50. MummyRachel’s POV It was Saturday morning. The house smelled like vanilla and sugar. Aria stood next to me in the kitchen, her tiny hands covered in flour, she was grinning, her cheeks dusted with white powder, her eyes bright with excitement. I smiled as I watched her. She was so small and resembles Darius in every way. She was like a cute little version of him.She made me wonder how Darius and i’s child would turn out. The thought made me blush, we haven’t spoken about having kids and I wasn’t sure if I was ready for motherhood but these past few days, Aria was changing my perspective. She felt like, mine. Not by blood but by something deeper. By love. "More chocolate chips, Mummy!" Aria said, holding up the bag. My heart stopped. Mummy. She had never called me that before, she always calls me by my name. I swallowed hard, blinking away the tears that threatened to fall. "Aria," I whispered, crouching down to her level. "What did you call me?" She tilted h

Chapter: 49. Restraining Order.Rachel’s POVI was in my office, typing away on my laptop when the door slammed open. I didn’t even have to look up to know who it was. Victoria. Her high heels clicked angrily against the floor as she stormed toward my desk. I kept typing, ignoring her. “Rachel.” Her voice was sharp, like a knife. I finally looked up. Victoria stood in front of me, her face red with anger. Her perfectly styled hair and dress didn’t hide the fury in her eyes.I smirked knowing very well what brought her here but choose to pretend unaware. “What do you think you’re doing?” she snapped. I leaned back in my chair, crossing my arms. “Working. What does it look like?” She slammed her hands on my desk. “Don’t play dumb with me! Why are you taking your shares away from Andrew’s company? Why are you trying to ruin him? Are you that heartless!?” I laughed. A cold, bitter sound. “Ruin him? He ruined himself. I warned you two, I told you you’d regret ever playing me? Didn’t I?”Victoria’

Chapter: Chp-17Lily’s POV I walk into the cafeteria with Anna, scanning the room for our usual spot. We're about to sit down when Asher steps up with a smile that never makes my heart skip a beat. "Hey, Lily, you're going to sit with us today," he says, taking the tray of food from me. I raise an eyebrow, taken aback. "Uh, I don't know, Asher. Anna and I were just about to—"He didn’t let me finish, “Sorry Anna, I will be stealing her away for today; I hope you don’t mind,” he asked. I shared a knowing look with Anna hoping she’d say no, but she only wiggled her brows at me with a mischievous smile dancing on her lips. “Of course you can; that won’t be a problem,” she responds. “Asher, but—“He beats me to it: “No buts; your friend already said yes, and if she doesn’t have a problem, you shouldn’t either. Please just come with me.” I try to protest, but Asher takes my arm and guides me toward the table where the rest of the guys are sitting. Noah, Liam, and Damien are all present.

Chapter: Chp-16.Lily’s POV I was in my room alone a while ago when Maya stepped in and asked me to help her with her homework. We're working on a math problem, and Maya is struggling to understand it. I'm trying to explain it to her in a way that makes sense. I can see that hating math runs in the family blood because it is the same subject Noah has a problem with, but he is getting the hang of it now. I guess. Just as Maya is starting to get it, Noah walks into the room. "Hey, Maya, can I talk to Lily for a minute?" he asks. Maya looks up at me. Her brows furrowed in confusion because she was aware that Noah and I don’t get along so well; she looked a bit confused. But I nod. "It's okay, Maya. I'll be right back." But before Maya can get up, Noah says, "No, Maya, I mean you should excuse us and go to your room, he asks impatiently.Whatever it was he wanted to discuss could wait; right now I was helping Maya, and I didn’t want to be interrupted, or should I say, I wanted to use her as

I still get tingling at the thought of it; I didn’t miss any chance I got to avoid Noah.And I could say I was doing a very good job. On the other hand, Asher and I were building a mutual understanding kind of relationship even though I asked him to take things slow, but so far I like him.I won’t say love, but like rather, he was better than Noah.Nicer, you mean... my instinct protests.Yeah! Whatever.I'm in the kitchen with Aunt Jess, making breakfast. She's scrambling eggs while I'm toasting bread.Aunt Jess turns to me and asks, "So Lily, how's school going? How has Seattle been treating you?" "It's going okay, Aunt Jess," I reply, trying to sound casual as though I wasn’t reminiscing about my heated moment with her son.Gosh! Aunt Jess smiles and says, "That's great, sweetie. I'm glad to hear that. Just then, Noah walks into the kitchen, shirtless and wearing only sweatpants. I feel my face heat up as I try

Chapter: Chp-14 Lily’s POVI stood in front of the mirror, adjusting my outfit for what felt like the hundredth time. I was wearing a pair of dark-wash jeans, a white shirt, and a black jacket.I didn’t want to overdress; I just wanted to wear something casual and comfortable, and this was what I could find. This is a friendly date, nothing more. looked good, I checked my phone for what felt like the hundredth time, waiting for Asher's call. The only reason I agreed to this date is because I wanted to provoke Noah. I wanted him to know that he didn’t have a say in my life. My thoughts come short when the door bursts open, revealing a tempered scowl on his face. "What is it, Noah?" I asked, trying to sound casual. "You're not going anywhere," Noah said, his voice firm.I raised an eyebrow, feeling a surge of annoyance. "What are you talking about?" I asked. "You're not going on a date with Asher," Noah said, his eyes flashing with anger. I laughed at his audacity. "You have no ri

Chapter: 48.Riley’s POVHis kiss burned through me like fire. One second I was standing there, trying to remember why I hated him and the next, his hands were on my waist, lifting me like I weighed nothing. My legs wrapped around him on their own, like my body remembered what to do even when my mind screamed no. "You're mine," he growled against my lips. I should have fought, or should have kicked and screamed him and tell him how I hated him for cheating on me for lying to me but his mouth crashed back onto mine, stealing every protest.His tongue swept in, tasting me, claiming me all over again. Five years disappeared in that kiss. He carried me down the hall, never breaking contact, our teeth clashed as our breaths mixed. I bit his lip just to hear him groan, and the sound went straight between my legs. The bedroom door hit the wall with a bang. Then I was falling, the soft mattress catching me as his weight pressed me down. His hands pushed the stolen shirt up my thighs. "Still

Chapter: 47.Riley’s POVMy eyes squint at the morning sunlight peaking through the curtains my head hurt so bad, it was pounding.“Ugh!” I growled sitting up.My eyes roamed around my environment, i wasn’t in my own bed. I shot up, immediately regretting it as the room spun. Where the hell am I?The sheets were soft, the pillows too fluffy. I looked down. And froze. I wasn’t wearing my dress from last night. Instead, I had on a large white shirt one that barely covered my thighs. My heart stopped. Oh my god. Did I… Did I sleep with someone? Memories from last night rushed back the party, Nicolas, the kiss, the car ride… Nicolas.This was his shirt. Which meant this was his place. I groaned, burying my face in my hands. “Oh my god! What have I done?” Then a smell hit me. Something sweet, buttery. Pancakes. My stomach growled loudly. I hadn’t eaten since yesterday, and the tequila had left me starving. I hesitated, then slowly got out of bed, the floor was co

Chapter: 46.Riley’s POV I couldn’t stay at that party any longer. My chest felt too tight, my hands wouldn’t stop shaking. I needed to leave this place else I’d lose my sanity. I walked back into the event hall, my heels clicking too loud on the marble floor. Anna was near the champagne table, laughing with some guy. I grabbed her arm. "I’m leaving," I said, my voice rough. Anna turned, her smile fading. "What? Why?" "I just… I can’t." I didn’t explain, if anything I couldn’t. Not when my throat felt like it was closing up. Anna studied my face, then nodded. "Okay. Let me get my purse " She looked like she knew, and I know she did and I’m greatful she didn’t argue into letting me stay longer."No," I cut her off. "I need to go now." Before he found me again. Before I broke down in front of everyone, my feelings were in the edge. My eyes stung with tears. Anna hesitated but finally sighed. "Text me when you get home." I didn’t answer, I just turned and walked away

Chapter: 45.Riley’s POVIt’s been weeks. Weeks of Nicolas showing up at my office. Weeks of him sending flowers. Weeks of me throwing them in the trash and shutting him off completelyxEvery time his name popped up on my schedule, I made sure to disappear. Meetings got "rescheduled." Calls went "unanswered." I was done with him. I didn’t want to keep living in the past, what him and I had was over and the sooner he accepts that the better it is for both of us.At least, that’s what I kept telling myself. Tonight was the annual business gala the biggest event of the year, according to my mother. It’d be my first time attending as the new CEO of the Sanchez Corp, I was nervous and so unprepared for this. I stood in front of the mirror, adjusting the straps of my dark blue dress. My hair was curled, my makeup flawless. I looked good. I needed to look good. Because if I looked confident on the outside, maybe I could fool myself into believing I felt it on the inside too.

Chapter: 44.Nicolas’s POV I watched her walk away. Every step she took felt like a knife in my chest. I wanted to grab her, pull her back or make her listen. But I didn’t. I let her go. For now. Because the idea that she thinks I’ll just let her walk out of my life again? Absurd. I may have made that mistake before but it wasn’t one I was willing to make again. I’ll be damned to have her disappear again. Now that she’s back, I would have her return where she truly belongs. I walked out of the building, my hands clenched into fists. The cold air hit my face, but it didn’t calm me down her absence was eating me up. The fact that I couldn’t stop her from going eat me up, but Riley is a very bullheaded woman she won’t just budge. Nothing could calm me down right now. Not after seeing her. Not after touching her. Ryder was waiting by the car, leaning against the door. He took one look at my face and smirked. "That bad, huh?" I didn’t answer. I didn’t trust myself

Chapter: 43.Riley’s POV His grip on my wrist was tight. Too tight. I yanked my hand back, glaring at him. "Cut the crap, Nicolas. We’re done. Whatever we had is in the past now. We both moved on." His jaw clenched. His dark eyes burned into mine. "Moved on? Is that what you think? Really Riley?" "Yes," I snapped. "That’s exactly what I think. We’re over so please don’t try to get in my way." He stepped closer, his voice low and dangerous. "We’re not divorced, Riley. You still belong to me and you’re mine alone" I laughed, but it came out bitter. "I don’t belong to anyone. Especially not you. You made your choices Nicolas. Now you can fuck off." His face darkened. "You think this is a game?" "No," I said, crossing my arms. "But I’m not playing anymore. Our union was based on a contract if I need to remind you of thatThere was never anything real between us and I was a fool to think there was something between us, I may have made that mistake before but not anymore, don’t test me"
