MasukKiara’s POV“I’ll book a three-day vacation for us,” Alex said, his voice calm but firm. “Somewhere quiet and beautiful. Just to get you away from all this drama so you can rest.”I looked up at him, surprised. “Alex, you don’t have to.”“No, Kiara,” he cut in gently, stepping closer. “Don’t say that. You know I love you, and I hate seeing you stressed like this.” His hands came to my shoulders, steady and warm. “You’ve been carrying too much on your own.”I swallowed, my chest tightening.“Sophia and the nanny will stay behind,” he continued, as if he had already thought everything through. “It’ll just be the two of us.”“No way,” I said immediately, shaking my head.“Yes way,” he replied with a soft laugh. “Come on. You need time for yourself, for once. It’s just three days, not a month. And the nanny is doing a good job already. You trust her, right?”“Yes, but…”“There’s no ‘but,’ Kiara,” he said firmly, yet lovingly. “Just get prepared. We’re leaving tomorrow morning.”I sighed,
Kiara’s POVI had to keep Sophia at home for a while.Not because she was sick, not because of school holidays, but because of Leo that's always coming to see her. She curled up on the rug with her legs crossed, eyes glued to the television as her favorite cartoon played. She laughed softly at something on the screen. I brushed my fingers through her hair as I walked past, inhaling the familiar scent of her coconut shampoo.I moved back to the couch after getting a glass of water, opened my laptop to monitor what was going on at the office. Work is the one thing that keeps me distracted.But I can't continue keeping Sophia at home because of Leo.The best thing to do right now was to change her school. Somewhere Leo wouldn’t know, somewhere he wouldn't just show up with so much entitlement.I had skipped work today just to be with her. To make sure she was okay. Her giggling echoed through the living room, filling me with warmth and guilt at the same time. I smiled, but it didn’t qui
Leo’s POVI was in the middle of a call with Mark, pacing my living room, my tie already loosened, jacket tossed carelessly on the arm of the couch. He was talking about some investment opportunities back in Canada, something about expansion and partnerships, but my mind wasn’t fully there.“So you see, if we move fast…” Mark was saying.My phone buzzed in my hand again.I glanced at the screen and frowned. My momI stiffened instantly.“Mark, please,” I cut in. “I’ll call you right back.”“Alright, man,” he replied easily. I ended the call immediately to pick her call.“Hello, Mom,” I said, forcing lightness into my voice. “What a pleasant surprise.”“Hold it right there, son,” she snapped, not giving me a second to breathe. “I didn’t call you for pleasantries.”I sighed inwardly, already knowing where this was going.“Ever since you decided to leave a good woman for that leech you now call a wife, that was the day I stopped being proud to call you my son.”I closed my eyes brief
Kiara’s POVFuck! What am I actually doing?Having sex with Leo twice now is crazy. Completely crazy. I’m acting like someone who has been starved for affection and touch, like someone who loses all sense the moment he looks at me a certain way.Now I’m letting him close again, letting him think he has some kind of right to question me about Sophia. Like he didn’t walk out of my life when I needed him the most. Like he didn’t sign those divorce papers without even letting me explain myself. I can't deny the fact that I really enjoyed the sex. It gave me a calm feeling. But I feel so stupid right now.Standing beside my bed, I hit my bed stand as I pace forth and back inside my room, thinking of what to do next, running my hands through my hair.“Get it together, Kiara,” I mutter under my breath.But my brain betrays me.It keeps replaying everything. The way he kissed my neck, slow and deliberate, like he knew exactly where it would weaken me. The way his hands fumbled with my boobs.
Leo’s POVNo woman has ever made me feel the way Kiara does. This is what I've been missing all these years because of my own stupidity. The memory of our sex last time after five years was so fresh in my head. Replaying itself over and over like a punishment I deserve.The way her pussy held my cock so tight. It still recognizes the owner afterall. Her moans drove me nuts and made me want to give her more. Her suckle boobs, her body, the way she arched and clung to me… I released more times than I could count, lost in her completely.“I will definitely fight till I win her back.” I muttered.But it's been three days now. Three long days of silence, and Kiara isn't picking my calls nor responding to my messages. I need to find out why she's been ignoring me after all the lovely moments we had.That’s how I found myself driving straight from my office to hers, my grip on the steering wheel tightening the closer I got.The receptionist at the front desk welcomed me with a polite smile.
Kiara's povI coughed to distract my thoughts, while adjusting myself. Leo raised his hand to the direction of the waiters. One of them came and we placed our orders. Soon it arrived and we devoured it, leaving no crumbs. We were both clearly hungry. Work had drained us, and for a moment, it felt strangely familiar…like the old days when evenings like this were routine.“So,” I said eventually, dabbing my lips with a napkin, “how’s your wife, Miriam?”Leo’s jaw tightened. He rolled his eyes and leaned back in his chair. “Can we not talk about her tonight, please?” His voice softened. “This night is just for the two of us.”I studied him for a second, then nodded. “Alright.”Truth was, I also want to enjoy my evening as well.He reached for his phone and tilted the screen toward me. “Have you ever been to this club?”I leaned in to look, then laughed. “I can’t even remember the last time I actually had fun.” I gestured vaguely. “It’s been work, work, work. Every single day.”“Well,” h
