I had already made up my mind.

But I wasn’t about to make it easy for her or any of them. They needed to think they were still in control. That I was still the fragile, heartbroken girl who didn’t know how to pick up her pieces without help.

So I let my voice tremble a little. I let the pain drip out just enough.

“I don’t know,” I said quietly. “I’m still… so hurt. Ryan really crushed me. I don’t know if I can ever trust him again.”

And that was the truth, just not the whole truth.

Mrs. Bennett, of course, took the bait. She must’ve seen that I was softening and believed that her words were finally sinking in. She reached out and took my hand in hers, and this time… I let her.

“It’s not him,” she whispered, shaking her head. “This is all that woman’s fault. But Ryan… Ryan will make it right. They both will. Don’t worry. You can trust me, Monique.”

I kept shaking my head, unsure if I was playing the role too well or just falling into it by default.

“But how?” I asked, voice cracking, e

  • DIVORCED MORNING AND REMARRIED TO HIS BROTHER BY NIGHT   Please Don't

    MONIQUEViolet was my aunt Jane's daughter. My only cousin.“Yes… Maybe she doesn’t. At least I’m a phone call away., At least I’m just three hours away from her.... Here, I’m in another part of the world.” Aunt Jane responded.“I left my husband to come here and take care of you,” she continued, her voice shaking now. “I left my marriage, only for you to continue making the same mistakes.""I promise you Marcus isn't a mistake, he's not Ryan...."But she interrupted me," Because if you keep making mistakes while I’m here watching you, then what good am I? What good am I to you? To your life? And why am I even here?”She shook her head slowly.“It’s just better if I leave.”I felt like the room was shrinking around me. My chest hurt, and my throat burned.“I....” I said, my voice cracking. “Please don’t do this to me. Please don’t make me choose.”She turned away from me, shaking her head. “I’m not asking for much, Monique. I’m just asking you to stop destroying yourself.”“I’m not de

  • DIVORCED MORNING AND REMARRIED TO HIS BROTHER BY NIGHT   Breakup

    MONIQUEMy heart dropped so hard it felt like it hit the floor.She had already packed.“I can’t do this anymore,” Aunt Jane said softly, folding clothes with trembling hands.Panic surged through me so fast I felt dizzy.I only had two people in this world. I had my aunt And I had Marcus. I didn’t have anyone else.And now my aunt was packing her bags. She was leaving. And I was losing it.I stepped forward instinctively, my hands shaking as I reached for the suitcase before she could pull it off the bed.“No,” I said, the word tearing out of my chest before I could stop it. “No, you can’t just leave.”She froze, her back still to me, her shoulders stiff like she was bracing herself for a blowout. For a second, neither of us spoke. The room felt too small, the air too tight.“Aunt Jane, please,” I whispered. “Don’t do this.”She let out a long, tired breath, the kind that carried years in it. Slowly, she turned around, and when I saw her face properly, my heart cracked. Her eyes were

  • DIVORCED MORNING AND REMARRIED TO HIS BROTHER BY NIGHT   Another Predator

    MONIQUEThe car veered into the parking lot of the building, and we went inside. As soon as we stepped through the doors, the smell of polished wood and faint disinfectant hit me immediately. The place was nearly empty, just as I’d hoped. One bored-looking attendant glanced up, surprised to see customers at this hour.Marcus glanced down at me, his features softening.“You look like a child who just got handed candy.”“I feel like one,” I admitted. Because when I saw this building, the only thing I saw was my dad and me. My dad teaching me bowling. I had so many memories of him teaching me a lot of things, but it felt like a hundred years had passed since I’d last been here, since I’d last bowled.We rented shoes. Mine were a size too big, his were slightly too snug, and it made us laugh, really laugh, joking with each other in a way that felt easy. It was a relief after the kind of day I’d had.Dale positioned himself nearby, unseen but watchful, and for some reason, it made me feel

  • DIVORCED MORNING AND REMARRIED TO HIS BROTHER BY NIGHT   Distract Me

    MONIQUE“What did he do?” Marcus's entire body changed, becoming cold and defensive.I shook my head. “He didn’t touch me. He didn’t do anything.” My thoughts raced as I tried to calm him down. “I swear. We were in public. He wouldn’t try anything.”He searched my face, like he needed to be sure.“Then what did he do?” he asked.“He threatened me. Just like he always does. Ryan is careful, and when he threatens you, it’s a promise.”His jaw tightened. “Monique...""It’s okay. I’m not scared of him anymore.”“You shouldn’t be,” he said. “So what did he want?”“He wanted me to go back with him. Back to our house. Back to what he thinks is our home, but it’s not.”I swallowed. “I told him I want a divorce.”Marcus stared at me, stunned.“I told him I don’t belong to him anymore. That I don’t want anything to do with him.”His arm stiffened on me.“You told him that?” he asked quietly.I nodded. “I know the plan was to surprise him with the papers, but I couldn’t take it. The way he talke

  • DIVORCED MORNING AND REMARRIED TO HIS BROTHER BY NIGHT   A Threat

    MONIQUEI felt Ryan’s words land on me. They weren’t just words, they were a threat. And the truth was, I felt that threat in my bones.I was scared of Ryan. That was the truth.But as I looked around, seeing Dale standing there, silent, protective, waiting for me to say the words, I knew I couldn’t let fear guide me. I had to be stronger.“I am not starting a fight with you, Ryan,” I said. “I just want to be done with you. I want to not be married to you anymore.”He scoffed. “Not starting a fight?” he repeated. “You asking for a divorce is asking for a fight. And I’m sure you can't win that.”I didn't think about it.“I don’t care,” I said. “I don’t care anymore, Ryan.”His brows drew together, not in anger but in disbelief, as if the idea itself offended him, that I would dare want to divorce him. I could have laughed.He took a step back, slower this time, calculating and recalculating before his mouth curved again.“Do you think this is winning?” he asked. “You’re standing here s

  • DIVORCED MORNING AND REMARRIED TO HIS BROTHER BY NIGHT   Hiding

    MONIQUEAs if Ryan could read my fear. As if he could feel the way my body had gone rigid, the way my breath had caught, the way my eyes had widened just enough to betray me.I couldn’t move.I couldn’t speak.I just stood there, frozen in place, staring at the man who had once controlled my entire world, while he stood there calmly, watching me unravel.Ryan's smirk widened deliberately, as if he was savouring this, enjoying it, like he had all the time in the world.“Well,” he said, his voice almost amused. “I have been looking all over for you, and guess where I find you? The same place I lost you.”I didn't answer.I couldn't.My throat felt tight, like it had closed around every word I could have said. My hands were clenched at my sides, my nails digging into my palms.Ryan looked me over in a way that made my skin crawl, as if he was taking inventory of me.“You look different,” he said, his eyes lingering. “ I am not sure whether I like the look in your eyes or not.”I didn't r
