“We might have fucked, but that doesn’t mean I have a right over you or anything.” She paused, her voice slightly trembling. “Whatever we had was just sex. Our relationship isn’t defined or anything. So no, I am not jealous.” She snapped the last part like a defense.

I smiled, leaning against the counter, watching her. She said she wasn’t jealous, but her body told a different story. From the moment she walked into the conference room and saw Elena flirting with me, she has been radiating that stiff, irritated energy, the kind she gives off when she’s trying too hard to act unaffected.

I could read her like an open file. Everytime she refused to meet my gaze said more than her words ever could, yet she couldn’t stop stealing glances when I wasn’t looking.

I pushed away from the counter and crossed the kitchen, taking a seat opposite her. She didn’t look up, just scrolled through her phone like I wasn’t even there.

“Since it’s been work and work since we got here,” I began,

  • The Masked Stripper is my Wife.    THE END

    LorettaWhen I slowly opened my eyes, the first thing I noticed was the strong smell of antiseptic. White walls surrounded me, and machines beeped softly beside the bed. That was when it hit me, I was in the hospital. My head throbbed as the memories came rushing back. I must have passed out after I stabbed Rosie.I tried to move, but pain shot through my body, making me hiss softly. Everything hurt, but my hand hurt the most, the same hand Rosie had stabbed. I took a deep breath and carefully pushed myself into a sitting position, ignoring the sharp ache in my arm.Just then, the door to my hospital room flew open.Asher walked in, holding my favorite flowers. The moment our eyes met, relief washed over his face. He hurried to my side, leaned down, and gently kissed my forehead before placing the flowers in my hands.“How is my favorite woman in the world feeling?” he asked softly.I looked at him and smiled despite the pain. “Your favorite woman?” I repeated teasingly, my smile wid

  • The Masked Stripper is my Wife.    BLEEDING

    Loretta It was strange, i had been sitting alone in the house when suddenly I heard a loud noise. My heart skipped a beat. Tonia had gone out for work, Adrian was still at the hospital, and his twin sister was at school. I wasn’t expecting anyone, and the house was usually so quiet.I got up cautiously, my steps quiet on the floor as I made my way toward the living room. As I opened the doorway, I froze. Standing right in the middle of the room was someone I hadn’t seen in years, looking around as if exploring a place that wasn’t hers.When she noticed me, her face lit up with a sheepish smile. “Loretta! Is that really you?” she said. “It’s been so long, five years since I last saw you!”It took a moment for my brain to catch up with my eyes. It really was her, Rosie, standing there like nothing had changed.,“How did you get inside?” I demanded, my voice trembling slightly with anger. Right now, it was the only thing that made sense. Only Tonia, Asher, and I had the keys to this pl

  • The Masked Stripper is my Wife.    MORNING AFTER

    Saturday morning I woke up to the smell of bacon.Which was weird because I didn't cook bacon. Didn't really cook anything beyond cereal and toast, honestly.I stumbled out of bed in my pajamas—ratty t-shirt and shorts that had seen better days—and followed the smell to the kitchen.Damon was at the stove. Actually cooking. Wearing jeans and a t-shirt instead of his usual suit, his hair still messy from sleep.I stopped in the doorway and just... stared."You cook?" I said.He looked up, spatula in hand. "Sometimes. When I have time.""But you have Mrs. Pat.""Mrs. Pat has weekends off." He flipped a piece of bacon. "Besides, I like cooking. It's relaxing."This was the weirdest thing. Damon Sterling. Billionaire CEO. Making bacon in a t-shirt on a Saturday morning like a normal human being."Want some?" he asked. "I made extra.""Yeah. Sure. Thanks."I sat down at the kitchen counter, still trying to process this. He plated up eggs and bacon and toast and set it in front of me."Coff

  • The Masked Stripper is my Wife.    TERMINATED

    AsherReluctantly, I left Loretta behind, even though every part of me wanted to stay with her. My mind was restless as I headed straight to the office. Logan had sounded unusually tense on the phone, and to make things worse, Richard had also called me moments later. Whatever was happening clearly couldn’t wait.By the time I arrived at the building, my patience was already wearing thin. I rushed to my floor, barely acknowledging anyone along the way. The moment the elevator doors slid open, Logan was standing there, as if he had been waiting the entire time.“Welcome, sir,” he said quickly, falling into step behind me as I walked briskly toward my office.I didn’t respond until I dropped into my chair, loosening my tie slightly as I looked up at him. “What on earth needed my attention so badly that I had to rush here?” I asked, my voice sharp with impatience.Logan hesitated for a second before speaking. “Sir, you’ve been trending online for over an hour now.”My head snapped up imm

  • The Masked Stripper is my Wife.    PEACE

    AsherI stood between her thighs, close enough to feel her presence, close enough that my eyes kept drifting to her lips. I had to remind myself why we were here. This was about words that had been left unsaid for years, about wounds that never truly healed. I forced my attention back to the conversation we needed to have.“I am so sorry,” she said softly. Her voice was calm, almost too calm, “I should have listened to your side of the story back then. If I had, we wouldn’t be standing here today. But when I saw Sarah’s baby bump and she told me you were married, I felt completely betrayed. I didn’t want to hear anything else. I just shut you out.”As she spoke, her eyes wandered everywhere at the floor, the wall, anywhere but never once did she look at my face.I took a deep breath, the old pain rising again like it had never left. “I won’t lie to you,” I said, my voice rougher than I intended. “I hated you back then. I hated you so much after I found out you were pregnant and you s

  • The Masked Stripper is my Wife.    LET'S TALK ABOUT US

    Loretta It had been two weeks since everything happened at Asher’s place, the revelation that had turned my world upside down and since my mom came back into my life. I had never felt so complete, so at peace. Just having her around was refreshing, like a weight I didn’t even realize I had been carrying had finally been lifted.I still hadn’t really spoken to my dad. Even though Mom told me that she had forgiven him and that I should too, I couldn’t see myself doing that anytime soon. Some things felt too raw, too heavy to just brush aside.“You and Asher, have you made a decision about your marriage yet?” Mom asked gently, her eyes searching mine.We were sitting in Adrian’s hospital room. He had just come through a kidney transplant a few days ago and was slowly recovering. The beeping of the monitors and the faint smell of antiseptic made the room feel sterile, yet my mom’s presence brought warmth to it. She had been coming every single day since we met, supporting me in ways I di
