Ace
The first month was incredibly trying with Maria’s constant belittling, defiance and sabotaging. She never missed a chance to mention how sexually satisfied she was and loved draping herself all over Gabriel when he did show up to eat with the guys. Those moments were far and few between but it always created a very tense atmosphere when he did.
I began obsessing about the lump in my throat as the sensation of suffocation woke me up each night. I had mentioned it to Matteo who urged me to see the ENT again to get more answers about my situation. I finally gave in and called Dr. Helm who agreed to book another ultrasound and biopsy. I drove out to the city with Matteo and went through the whole process again. The two of us shared a hotel room for the weekend and gorged ourselves on take out Chinese and pizza.
Matteo mentioned that Gabriel was at a different work location for a few weeks and I immediately felt the tension in my body me

Betrayed Gabriel is a bit of a dick...
Maria continued to do the bare minimum and though I complained to Matteo a few times about her, there was little he was able to do about her behavior. He threatened to fire her several times but Maria and I both knew he wouldn’t do anything to go against Gabriel. This was a matter for Gabriel to solve and since he and Maria were sleeping together, she felt her job was secure.“When is Gabriel coming back?” I asked Matteo one day as he came to collect my weekly budget sheets.“Sometimes next week I think,” he shrugged.“I’m probably going to have to meet with him for budget stuff again” I groaned.“You’re over aren’t you?” he asked with a hint of amusement.“Oh yes….” I said.“How do you manage that?”“What do you mean, how do I manage that? Food is
Betrayed It's my first time here
As we got closer to town, my phone gained signal and several messages popped up on my screen. Voicemails, text messages and emails all blinked at me. Remi smiled at all the notifications I was receiving. “How long has it been since you left the camp?” he asked. “Since I got here about 6 weeks ago,” I replied. “Wow, you’re tough!” he said with a laugh. “Most people can’t go an hour without checking their social media”. I shrugged. “I’m not like most people,” I replied. “No you really aren’t” he said with an adoring smile. Remi lived in a new apartment building in town with fantastic views. The place was neat but nearly empty, I guessed he hadn’t been living there very long. “Sorry, I don’t have a whole lot in here yet, I just got the place a month ago” he said, confirming my suspicions. “Where did you live before that?” I asked curiously while checki
Betrayed It's Janice!
Remi and I had sex a few more times the next morning and each time was better than the last. His size made up for the lack of experience and his enthusiasm at pleasing me was endearing.“You’ll be coming back with me tonight then?” he asked after breakfast.“That’s the plan, Ace” I said, “Maybe we should grab a box of condoms before heading there, what do you think?” I asked. His head perked up at this.“Really?” he asked eagerly.“Wouldn’t hurt, you know, for emergencies” I teased.We went to the pharmacy to get some supplies for the week, while I browsed the shampoo and body wash aisle, Remi had wandered off to the condoms. He returned crimson faced and empty handed.“Uhm, Harper…” he began uncomfortably, “there’s like fifty different kinds of condoms. Does it mat
Betrayed What do I do now?
Janice was eager to hear all the details about my morning with Gabriel and the doctor, though I felt that she was more interested in the Gabriel part. She was very supportive and empathetic about the situation and declared she was going to move back and take care of me after my surgery.“No Janice, I’ll be fine!” I assured her. Remi told her several times that he was going to take care of me during my surgery and although it took a bit of time for him to convince Janice, she finally conceded that I was in good hands.“You better take good care of my girl,” she glared at him. She was a good foot shorter than Remi but that didn’t stop her from asserting her dominance with him. Remi smiled down at her and nodded.“Yes ma’am” he said bowing slightly.“Now you two love birds run along, Aunty Janice has some dishes to do '' she said, shooing us out of t
Betrayed Sally's
Remi drove me to work for my first week at the diner where I learnt everything Sally had to teach me. She was eager for me to be on my own so that she could migrate to Florida for the winter. We had discussed my impending surgery and she had assured me that someone would take over for my two weeks of convalescence.I enjoyed living with Remi because like everything else in our relationship it was easy and simple. He was uncomplicated and doted on me. Before starting his job in Newfoundland he worked at his dad’s shop as a mechanic. I had met his parents and immediately adored them. They were very supportive of their son and incredibly sweet with me. I was sad when he left in September but I also had a nagging feeling of relief that filled me. Remi had lent me his truck to travel to and from work while he was gone and added me to his TV, internet and electricity account as a shared user so that I could contact them if I needed to.On
Betrayed Surgery
Remi and I were at the hospital for 7 as I had been instructed by the preadmission nurse over the phone. I was fasting and quickly developing a headache from the lack of caffeine in my system. As a show of solidarity, Remi was also fasting and going without his coffee. The nurse weighed and measured me then instructed me to change into a hospital gown before proceeding with a pre-op questionnaire. She ran some blood work, installed an IV into my left hand, brought me a warm blanket and told me that the doctor and anesthesiologist would be in to see me before wheeling me over to surgery.Doctor Helm knocked on the door and introduced himself to Remi. Before turning his attention to me.“How are you feeling this morning, Miss Saunders?” he asked politely.“Nervous”“I can imagine, but rest assured you are in good hands. Did you have any questions for me this morning?”
Betrayed Change of Pace
I returned to Remi’s apartment and took stock of the place. I would most likely be able to move all of my things out in one trip. I did not own any furniture, electronics, blankets, or any household goods, all I had was clothes, a few toiletries, my phone and the plant Gabriel had bought me. I didn’t particularly want to move back to Manitoba and besides, I would need to wait for my biopsy results before I could make up a decision about leaving New Brunswick. I laid in bed cuddling up to a pillow that smelt like Remi and fell into an exhausted dream filled sleep. I did not feel rested when I woke up but decided that I should start looking for an apartment and a car the same day.There was not a whole lot of choice when it came to furnished apartments but in the end I contacted an elderly lady who was renting a room in her house. It would be appropriate lodgings for me as I had very little to bring along. Her house was also close to Sally&
Betrayed Rhode Island
Janice and her boyfriend were picking me up from the airport. Though Sam was a very nice good looking guy he was also very intimidating. His sharp dark eyes were always watching and analyzing the surroundings. I understood that he was a private investigator, but it made me wary to be around him. It was only when we were at Janice’s apartment that he seemed to let his guard down and became warm and open, especially when Janice was around. I totally understood why she was into him. He was the typical tall, dark and handsome guy women sought out.“How long have you two been together now?” I asked when he left to get food for supper.“About a year, but we’ve known each other since we were kids,” she said with a smile.“Does he live here with you?” I asked, curious about their living arrangements.“Oh no!” she laughed. “Sam is far too independent
