ACCEPTING THEIR RIDICULOUS OFFERS

Rissa made her way to the gigantic bed of the hotel suite that her husband, Liam had rented for the whole week.

A few minutes later, she felt a hand caressing her body in her dark room; she smiled inwardly as she called out to him seductively, “Babe" he kept touching her, and it felt good; Rissa dragged his face to hers, and their lips met.

He kissed her hungrily, and she couldn't help but smile at how good it felt; she felt his hand move upward to her nipples as he sucked them lovingly, making her wet in her core even though she felt dizzy.

She felt his hardness bulging out against her stomach; it felt good, and her nostrils were filled with the tantalizing aroma of his exquisite Cologne.

" I love you, babe”, she whispered into his ears, but he didn't respond with words; instead, he pushed into her wetness, and their bodies moved in sync.

Rissa felt pleasure, but she felt too weak; her eyelids were too heavy to open; she tried to look into his charming eyes, but in her sleep-wake, she could only make out his frame.

She fell back into a deep sleep only to wake up when the reflection of the sun hit her skin. To her surprise, Liam was sitting stiffly on the sofa opposite the bed, staring blankly at her. It took Rissa some seconds to make sense of the situation.

Liam was sitting there; Rissa jolted up, alerting the man beside her.

Before she knew it, Liam stood up abruptly, threw his wedding band to her and made to leave "Liam, wait! Liam!" Rissa managed to wrap herself in a blanket

She didn't care about the eyes that followed her as she ran after her husband, Liam, who painfully couldn't turn back to look at her. "I can explain, Liam; I swear I didn't”, Rissa managed to mouth.

Liam's eyes glinted dangerously, he unbuttoned his well-tailored tuxedo as he walked on, Rissa caught up to him

She held his shoulder tightly but he shoved her aside making her fall on her butt but Rissa didn't give up

" Listen to me Liam, I can explain everyt..." She pleaded desperately but Liam still kept his gaze away from her

" How did I end up with a shameless slut like you!" Liam said dangerously still shoving away her hand as she made to hold him

" I have never....I am sorry I..." Rissa started but was cut off by the judgemental gaze of a couple that passed by at the moment.

Liam got to the elevator and prevented her from entering with him, she quickly rushed through to the stairs and climbed vigorously.

" I love you, Liam; I am sorry”, Rissa kept on blabbing endlessly to herself. By the time she got to the last staircase, Liam was already out of the doors of the hotel.

He got into his Rolls Royce and sped off immediately. Rissa felt lightheaded from her hangover, and she held the rail of the stairwell for support.

An idea popped up in her head, she felt uncontrollable rage towards the man Liam caught in bed with her, she quickly climbed through the gigantic stairs to make him regret ruining her

To her utter shock, her one-night stand had disappeared into thin air; Rissa screamed out in her head, how was she going to defend herself? Liam would never listen to her. She busted into uncontrollable tears.

She quickly picked up her phone and called Diane, her friend, who picked up almost instantly.

" Before you tell me about your sweet lovemaking, last night bride, hope Liam is out of earshot," Diane asked teasingly

Rissa busted into uncontrollable tears, she couldn't hold back her emotions

"Baby girl what happened!" Diane asked startled, she dropped the toothbrush she was holding

It took Rissa some seconds before she could muster the courage to spill out her misfortune

" Liam caught me in bed with another man" Rissa blurted out dejectedly

" What! How the hell did that happen?" Diane asked in awe

" It is hard to explain Diane" Rissa retorted and cried more

"Shuush baby girl, I will be with you in a jiffy, don't do anything till I come " Diane said in haste pulling off her night robe

" What about the fling?" Diane asked carefully trying not to betray her emotion

" He disappeared into thin air" Rissa responded trying to hold back her tears

Diane heaved a frustrated sigh; it was supposed to be Rissa's wedding night; how did she end up in such a terrible situation?

She quickly dabbed her face with water, changed into a blue flare gown and picked up her Louis Vuitton bag.

Within ten minutes Diane her friend rushed down to her

" How the hell did this happen!" Diane asked restlessly, feeling agitated by the unfortunate outturn of events

Rissa could barely contain her tears" It wasn't my fault Diane, the alcohol got the best of me, I slept off after you left, then..then" she stuttered

" It is okay Rissa" Diane patted her shoulder in consolation, “we will get through this together”

" Did you see his face? I mean the.. him.." Diane said, choosing her words carefully so as not to upset her more. Rissa nodded and cried on bitterly.

Diane sighed dejectedly "This isn't good Rissa, we need to convince Liam it wasn't your fault"

" He wouldn't even look at me”, Rissa cried, holding up the wedding band Liam had dropped earlier.

Diane pulled her closer and hugged her lovingly. Rissa held on to her and cried her eyes out. Nobody else could feel her pain as Diane does.

" I will talk to Liam, we will sort it all out, don't worry" Diane assured patting her back

" Thank you, Diane, you are the only one I have, " Rissa said gratefully

Rissa's phone chimed and she disentangled from Diane as she saw that it was from Liam.

She read the message and sank into despair. Diane wrenched the phone out of her tight grip and read out "My lawyer will mail the divorce papers to you".
