After the Divorce Chapter 40: Unspoken Truth
Sophia’s POVI shouldn’t be thinking about it, but I was — my mind stuck on a path it should never have been on. Lying in bed, my eyes fixed on the ceiling as I thought about what last night would have been like. We had been free, the way he had laughed, the way his eyes had taken me in as if he was seeing me. When his hands had cupped my face as if it was the most natural thing to do.“God,” I groaned, feeling that heat creep up my neck, spreading slowly through my cheeks. I turned to my side, pulling the bed cover tighter between my legs, the force causing it to bump against my core. My body trembled from the sensation. This was stupid, having the reaction all because of an almost kiss, but my body didn’t think about that. It just didn’t care. Because the more I thought about it, the more the feeling intensified, the more everything felt too strong to be ignored.He had been close, so close that I could feel just how hard his body was against mine. “Stop,” I whispered in a weak to
After the Divorce Chapter 39: Dangerous Thoughts
Sophia’s POV “Marcus?” I was hit with an instant cold, the warmth of his fingers gone, my body jerked, my heart hammering hard in my chest at the sound of the voice. I needed to act fast, do something that would make what almost happened look different. “Ouch!” I cried. Marcus frowned as he pulled away slowly, the spell between us broken. I knew it. I couldn’t push it. “Are you okay?” he asked, his voice laced with worry. “My eyes — my lash was trapped between them.” He blew on it, his hand back to my face, holding me gently. But this didn’t feel like it. It didn’t feel like when he had held me with so much warmth. “I think it is gone now,” I muttered, watching a figure walk closer to where we stood. “Okay,” he hummed. He was the first to turn, smiling at his friend. “Hey, didn’t know I would see you around here,” he said. Sebastian didn’t look at him, his eyes were on me as if he was trying to figure out what was going on. “Hello,” he greeted, ignoring his friend. Marc
After the Divorce Chapter 38: Shades Of Temptation
Sophia’s POVHe looked exhausted. Like a man in a room full of bees and he just doesn’t know how to get out. “You don’t like jazz, do you?” I asked.He tugged on the cuff of his shirt, his eyes meeting mine with a soft smile on his lips. “Did I make it that obvious?”“Well, given the fact that you haven’t stopped huffing each time the sax plays louder, or maybe the fact that you have that look, a constipated look on your face — and most people here look like they are having a time of their lives,” I pointed out.“You have been watching me?”My cheeks flushed, my throat going slightly dry at his accusation. “Not watching, but you make it easy enough to know what you’re going through,” I said.He hummed. “So I can’t play poker then?” he asked.“Maybe.” I reached for the glass of wine, this low talk that we were doing, the dinner, the music, they were all messing with my head. “But I am sure I can read through you,” I added.He smiled, “You are an artist, of course you will,” he muttered
After the Divorce Chapter 37: Cancelled
Sophia’s POVThe outing had finally made it out of the group chat.I couldn’t stop seeing the smiles on their faces as we laughed at the joke Kyla had shared. “I need to use the restroom,” Kyla said, walking in that direction.“Are you sure you are okay?” Lily’s voice broke through the fog. I stared at her. I could see her eyes on me, watching the same thing she had been doing all night.I smiled, the same practiced smile I had for everything.“Yes, why wouldn’t I?” I laughed.Her eyes narrowed. “You look…” she paused as if she was thinking about what she wanted to say.“Is everything okay at home? Did your mom do something?” I could hear the worry in her tone.I placed my hand on hers, “Everything is great, I have just been a little under the weather… the job and you know…”The lies were getting easier to say.“I can talk to someone — I know a client that works in…”I grabbed her hand.“Don’t do that. Don't put yourself at their mercy, okay? Besides, who said I am not enjoying this l
After the Divorce Chapter 36: Out Of Control
Marcus’s POVFuck.A thousand and one ways to die, and I never expected seeing Sophia like that to be one of them. The images clung to my head like a web I couldn’t tear free of. She knew nothing about what she had done.Her eyes were wide, innocent as she watched me, while I stood in front of her, my mind thinking of ways I could bend her over, and have my way with her. I heard that sound, something that was going to haunt me forever.I had heard the first moan. I should have walked away, but I didn’t. Instead, I had stormed to the door, fighting the anger in my chest as I listened like the pervert that I was. Listened until I couldn’t anymore. For a second, I thought she had brought a man home. Anger rushed through me as I pounded on the door.And when she opened, staring at me with sleep-soft eyes, I knew she had been sleeping, a wet dream. “What?” The word burned at the back of my throat. One word, and it damned me.“There you are. I walked into the bathroom for a minute and w
After the Divorce Chapter 35: Fractured Silence
Sophia’s POVI couldn’t be happier. Lunch with him felt like one of those traditions you have without forcing yourself for too much.He had listened, laughed at some jokes that I cracked. Leaving had been the hard part. But when I saw the way, his features changed when he picked up his phone, I knew that I had to leave. I had taken much of his time already, he had to sort things out.Now, coming home to this silence, this was the part that I hated the most. Mom wasn’t around and I was thankful for that. I guess I didn’t have to hang around her for more than I should.I didn’t need her screechy voice shouting in my ears.“Good of you to finally pick,” Lily said into the phone.“She has been ignoring us, I feel like we aren’t her friends anymore,” Kyla echoed.I shook my head as I settled on the bed; it had been a long minute since I spoke with my girls. “I am sorry, I have been the worst…”“The very worst,” Kyla cut in.I shook my head at her words. “I am sorry, I have been trying to…
After the Divorce Chapter 34: The Best Part
Marcus POV “Someone looks less grumpy,” a voice teased as I walked into the office. I ignored him, my eyes looking ahead as I pushed the door open. I knew what he was trying to say, but I wasn’t going to play into that. I was happier, if that was a thing. Lighter and there was a reason for th
After the Divorce Chapter 33: Wrong Priorities
Sophia’s POVIt was easier to keep my hands busy than actually think about what could and should have been. My ears were peeled to the door upstairs, he wasn’t awake yet. Or maybe he was avoiding me, I couldn’t say which. But I hoped it was the former.The sound of the front door opening snapped me

Sophia’s POV“What movie are you watching?” he asked with a defeated look on his face.I couldn’t hide the grin that formed on my lips.“Anything you would like? I am not picky with movies, just pick something and I will have this plated up,” I said, taking the bag from his hand as I rushed into th
After the Divorce Chapter 1: Sugar and Lies
Sophia’s POVThe cake box burned against my palms as I shifted my weight from one leg to the other. I’d been standing here for minutes, wondering if coming unannounced to my boyfriend’s place was a good idea.The last week had been rocky—he was always busy, always with an excuse, cancelled dates at
