IRIS

“Shit,” Maverick cursed once he realized. “Iris.”

I turned around so I was laying on my back. Maverick was staring at me with an expression I couldn’t decipher. He ran a hand through his hair, his chest rising and falling slowly.

“It’s okay,” I assured him, sitting up. “I have an IUD.”

He regarded me carefully for a few seconds before he nodded. “Okay.” And then he turned around without another word, heading towards the bathroom.

I sat there on Maverick’s bed thinking about what we had just done and what was going to happen now.

We’d both needed some kind of escape from reality, and we both made a reckless decision.

But now it was all over, and I didn't know what Maverick was planning to do, but I had an idea.

He was definitely going to look into me now.

Maybe I should have just told him about Amethyst. But even as I sat there, I couldn’t work up the courage to open my mouth and tell him.

Maybe it was better for him to find out by himself.

I contemplated leaving, but b

what do y’all think? Is Iris finally going to confess?

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER FIFTY-ONE: THE TRUTH

    IRIS Maverick was dripping wet from head to toe. He must have gone for a run.A run to clear his fucking head while I sat in his room crying and contemplating.He wanted to know the truth? I was going to tell him the truth.Just not about Amethyst.I took a deep breath. “Have you ever kept a secret just so you could protect someone?”Maverick exhaled sharply, running a hand through a damp hair. “Iris, we can—”“Just answer the question, Maverick.” I crossed my arms over my chest, walking toward him. “Have you ever kept a secret just so you could protect someone?” I repeated slowly.His jaw was tense as he nodded slightly. “Yeah, I have. What does that have to do with anything?”I shrugged, not taking my eyes off him. “It has everything to do with this, Maverick. Because while I can’t tell you my secret, I can tell you something about me in exchange for it.” I paused. “I’ll tell you something about my past.”This was stupid. I was breaking my own rules all by myself. But sometimes, to

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER FIFTY-TWO: NICE OF YOU TO JOIN US

    IRIS ‘A driver will pick you up at 9. Be ready.’ I swallowed the lump in my throat as I stared at the message that I’d just received from Maverick. Last night was a blur. After I’d begged Maverick not to look into me, he was quiet. He just held me tightly while I cried. And the next thing he’d said was, “Go to bed, Iris.” I had no idea what was going on in his mind, or whether he was going to listen to my pleas and not dig into me. At least, not until I was ready to tell him. Today would be my first day working as Maverick’s assistant even though I didn't know much of what my job entailed. It wasn’t a real job that I had to be dedicated to, it was just a front. Something that would also bring me closer to the company. Closer to Sebastian and Eleanor. And Maverick had left without me. Apparently, he had hired a new driver who would drive me to work. An hour later, I was dressed in a black corporate gown that I found lodged somewhere in my closet, with a pair of stilettos. I tie

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER FIFTY-THREE: THE BOSS

    MAVERICK I was not prepared to see Iris in a corporate outfit.She looked… Fuck.She looked fucking phenomenal.The black dress hugged every curve, the heels gave her legs that extra length, and the way she held her chin high despite how obviously nervous she was?Infuriatingly sexy.I twirled the pen between my fingers, keeping my expression unreadable as Iris walked further into my office. I wondered what it would feel like to fuck her in those heels. What it would feel like to bend her over my desk, raise that fucking sexy gown up, and just fuck her.I wondered if she was wearing panties.Damn it. I had to stay focused.Last night should not have happened. It never should have happened, no matter how much Iris had tempted me.“This is a workplace, not a fashion show,” I muttered, leaning back further in my chair to disguise the fact that my cock was pushing against my slacks right now.Iris arched her brow, folding her arms. “Sorry, boss. Would you like me to wear a sac to the of

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER FIFTY-FOUR: CASUAL LUNCHES

    IRIS “I cannot believe you work with him every single day.” Megan shook her head in pure disbelief as she cut into her chicken. She looked at me like I was the craziest woman on the planet. “I mean, I get the whole revenge thing, but how are you still sane?”Megan, Amethyst, and I were having lunch at a restaurant not too far from the house.I rolled my eyes, sipping my margarita. “I think I lost my sanity the second I agreed to this deal.” It had been a little over a week since I started working at the company with Maverick, and let’s just say, things had been…electric.I’d thought that working with him would provide me with some sort of distraction or something for me to focus on, but I was wrong. Working with Maverick was fucking intense.I shared the same office with Chase, but every time Maverick and I were in the same room, I could feel him.And I fucking hated it.Coupled with the fact that he had made it his life’s mission to frustrate me. I was in charge of getting his coff

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVE: THE KIDNAPPING

    IRIS Maverick knew who had attacked Megan and Amethyst and he didn't tell me. Hearing it from Megan made it even worse—it meant that Maverick had known and he was keeping it from me. He even told Dwayne about it but not me? Something was wrong, and I was going to find out what it was. By the time Megan and I were finished at the restaurant, the time had already moved towards evening. “Hey, I’m sorry I just blurted that out. I didn't know Maverick hadn’t told you yet.” I arched my brow. “Are you really apologizing for telling me something I should’ve known?” Megan shrugged, giving me a sheepish smile. “I guess maybe if Maverick was keeping this from you, there had to be a reason, right?” I set my jaw. I refused to view things from that angle. This was something that he knew was important to me. I had almost lost them. If Maverick knew who the culprit was and he wasn’t even doing anything about it, he was going to have me to contend with. I pulled her and Amethyst into a hug, pl

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER FIFTY-SIX: WHERE IS SHE?

    MAVERICK Something wasn’t right.I felt it the moment I stepped into the house and I didn’t hear her, but I knew it the moment I knocked on the door to her room and there was no answer. No sign of Iris when I opened the door.I checked the time on my watch—past nine pm. Iris should have been back hours ago.Pulling my phone out, I dialed her number. It rang and rang, but there was no answer. No missed texts from her. Nothing.I clenched my jaw, my grip tightening around the phone as I exhaled. Iris wasn’t the type to ignore my calls, but maybe she was at Megan’s.But even as I dialed Megan’s number, the feeling that something terrible had happened nagged at the back of my mind.Megan picked up on the second ring.“Maverick?” She sounded surprised. “What’s up?”“Is Iris with you?” I asked, skipping the formalities. I already knew the answer before Megan even replied.Megan was quiet for a few seconds, processing my question, and then she said, “I thought she was with you. We parted wa

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVEN: HELLO, DARLING

    IRIS My pulse thundered in my ears. Every breath I took felt shallow, forced. I had been kidnapped, trapped and tied to a fucking chair im the dark. And my captor was none other than Quentin Sinclair. Maverick’s father. I clenched my jaw, forcing myself to breathe as the rope dug into my wrists. I couldn’t afford to show weakness. Not in front of him. “Why am I here?” I willed my voice to be steady, but my body trembled slightly. Quentin stood a few feet away, his arms crossed in front of his chest as he watched me carefully, following my every movement with his eyes. He looked too much at ease. Too comfortable despite the situation I was in. Then again, he wasn’t the one who had been tied up. “You’re here because I needed to have a little chat with you,” he said smoothly, stepping closer. His voice was neutral, but there was something darker underneath. I narrowed my eyes. “And you couldn’t just call?” His lips pulled up in a smile that didn’t reach his eyes. “I find tha

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHT: I’M COMING, ANGEL

    MAVERICK Ryan was waiting for me when I arrived at The Haven. He sat in the booth in the farthest corner, swirling a glass of whiskey in his hand like he didn’t have a fucking care in the world.I didn’t hesitate. I stormed toward him, gripping the edge of the table hard enough to crack the wood. “Where is she?”Ryan didn't even blink. He tilted his head lazily, smirking as his eyes met mine. “You look like shit, Sinclair.”I instantly reached for him, pulling him out of the booth by the collar of his shirt. I didn’t care about the attention I was getting from the bar goers. My girl was fucking missing.“You’d better start talking if you don’t want me to bash your face in,” I growled at him.Ryan—the little fucking shit he was—smiled at me. He wasn’t scared. Wasn’t even fucking moved. I tightened my grip on his collar, resisting the urge to slam him against the wall.My patience had run out.“Tsk, tsk,” he tutted. “That’s no way to treat the only person in this room who knows where

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN: THE CAKE TASTING

    IRIS I froze in my seat.Stay?What the hell did he mean by “Stay?”The baker smiled politely. “Oh, of course, I can stay,” she said. She was completely unaware that Maverick had just issued a threat disguised as a request.“Oh, you don’t have to—” I started to say, but she cut me off.“Please. I’m usually nervous about watching my clients taste my cake, but I don’t mind being here as long as it’s what you want.”My eyes were wide as I stared at Maverick, and he had a smirk on his face. His stormy eyes twinkled with mischief.And the remote was completely out of sight.“It is,” he said curtly, his gaze pinned on me sharply, daring me to disagree.That wasn’t going to happen.“Okay, sure,” she replied, tucking her hair behind her ears nervously. “I’ll just… stand back and talk you through the flavors while you try them.”Maverick’s expression was unreadable as he reached for a mini red velvet cake from the platter. He stabbed it with his fork, holding it out to me.“Open,” he murmured

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN: STAY

    IRIS It wasn’t long before I was ready. I had on a lilac-colored sundress—yes, I picked it on purpose—and tied my hair up in a messy bun, letting a few stray curls dangling near my face.Maverick was already in the car when I slid into the passenger seat.He turned to look at me, his look appraising as he regarded my form.“You’re playing a dangerous game, Angel,” he said huskily, his gaze trained on my cleavage.I couldn’t help it—I stuck my chest out a little more, and Maverick’s jaw twitched.“When am I not?” I replied sassily, biting on my bottom lip.He looked away from me, tapped his fingers on the steering wheel once. Twice. Thrice.And when he looked back at me, there was anger swirling in his eyes. Anger and something else.Desire.“Let me make something clear to you, Iris,” he said in a deadly tone. I let out a soft gasp.He continued. “This doesn’t mean I’ve forgiven you for what you did. I haven’t.”Maverick shook his head slowly even as my heart sank. “I don’t know if I’

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWELVE: NOT COMPLETELY CLUELESS

    IRIS The first thing I perceived the moment I opened my door was the smell of pancakes. It wafted up the stairs and filled the entire corridor.I was a little shocked, because yesterday, Tania had said she wouldn't be coming in early, so all I knew was that I was going to be the one to make breakfast this morning.But the moment I went down the stairs, I got my answers.Maverick was in the kitchen, his back turned, muscles flexing as he worked on the stove.First of all, he was supposed to be at work. Second of all…Wow.But I wasn't the only one staring at him in admiration. Chelsea sat at the counter, engaging him in a conversation while looking at him like he created the damn world.And Amethyst…She sat in her high chair, smiling up at Maverick whenever he turned to look at her.Something lodged itself deep in my throat, and my vision turned cloudy. I wasn’t prepared to see Maverick being a dad.But here he was. And his daughter adored him.I wasn’t sure how long I stood there,

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN: KEEP FUCKING YOURSELF

    MAVERICK Iris was going to kill me.She was going to murder me without hesitation and bury me six feet under. “Fucking hell, Iris,” I gritted out, my eyes focusing on her wet pussy that was spread in front of me.“You’re so fucking needy. You’re a needy little slut, aren’t you?”My insults never got to her. Iris would never admit it, but she had a degradation kink. She was a proud, feisty woman, but when she wanted me, she was willing to push all that aside and submit to me in whatever way.And I fucking loved that about her.But right now, she was testing my limits, dangling bait in front of me.And I was a fish willing to catch that bait.Iris stuck her tongue out to lick her lips, nodding desperately. “I need you, Maverick. Whatever you want to do, just… give me something. Anything.”I stood quietly for a full minute, just watching Iris’s legs open and close. She was restless, aroused. I knew that if I touched her pink pussy, I would find it soaking wet.But I wasn’t going to tou

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TEN: JUST WATCH

    IRIS I had no idea what I was doing. No idea why I was doing it. No idea why I couldn’t help it.But when I saw Maverick watching me quietly through the small opening, I wanted to tease him.To make him want me.And I knew I didn’t have the right to do that. Not anymore.But all I’d done was ask him if he was coming. It was left for him to say yes or no.But as I stepped into the rainfall shower enclosure, I couldn’t help but wonder whether he would actually take the bait.I turned on the shower, sighing when the warm water sprayed down on my body.I released my hair from its bun, letting it fall over my shoulder and tossing the hair tie aside. And then I let the water do its work.I was anxious. It had been a little over five minutes and Maverick still hadn’t come in.Disappointment wrapped itself around me like a cold blanket.I guess… he didn’t want me.But what was that look I’d seen in his eyes then if it wasn’t desire? If it wasn't—The sound of the door to the enclosure slid o

    MAVERICKI could’ve pushed her away from me. But I didn’t.I let Layla wrap her hands around my neck. Let her scent cloud my senses.She always used to smell like jasmine, and now?Now, it was no different.Layla was seated on my lap, a small smirk on her face as one hand left the back of my neck to trail down my chest.“Get off me,” I muttered.She didn't. Not that I was even expecting her to.“Why?” she whispered, leaning in close. “You didn’t used to mind. “You used to beg for it. For me to sit on your lap…” Layla ground her hips against my lap. “For me to ride you.”Her lips grazed my ear as she leaned in even closer. “Does Iris ride you the way I used to?”My nostrils flared. “Don’t say her name.”“With pleasure, baby. I don’t even like her. I just want you.”I placed my hand on her hips, starting to push her away, but I paused when her teeth grazed my earlobe.Not because I was aroused, but because a thought struck me. If I hadn’t broken up with Layla that faithful night, maybe

    MAVERICK ‘Why the fuck am I doing this?’ I muttered to myself as I walked through the doors of a bar downtown. Inside was nearly empty, save for the owner of the bar, who had let me in.Just like she said it would be.I took a seat at a booth in the corner, checking the time on my wristwatch. She was running late.Not that I expected anything other than that.“Would you like anything, sir?” The owner, a tall, bald man asked as he walked up to me. I shook my head firmly. “No, I’m just here to meet someone.”“I’m aware of that,” he replied with a smirk.He walked away before I could say anything else. Good. Because I wasn’t here to strike up a conversation with anyone but her.I didn’t have to wait long, though, because it wasn’t up to a minute later when she stepped into the bar, silky dress hugging her body, her heels clicking against the floor as she strutted toward me with a smirk on her face.“You’re late,” I said curtly, keeping my tone blunt and formal.“Well, I’m here, aren’t

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Revenge is Mine!   CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVEN: ANGEL TEARS

    IRIS The moment the door shut behind Dwayne, everything settled into silence. There was an uncomfortable level of quietness between Maverick and me as he stared at the door, and I stared at him.Dwayne had gone off to do god-knows-what, and he and Maverick had gotten into a fight.I’d never seen them like that with each other. Ever.Maybe that was what emotions did to people. To men like Maverick and Dwayne, emotions were destructive.My gaze dropped to Maverick’s split lip. He may have succeeded in leaving a mark on Dwayne, but Dwayne got him good too.I bit the inside of my cheek, trying to keep the words from falling out of my mouth, but I couldn't help it. “Your lip is bleeding,” I stated, gesturing with my pointer finger to his mouth.Maverick’s eyes met mine, and he stuck his tongue out slightly, licking the blood off his bottom lip.“I’m fine,” he muttered, turning away from me.“No, you’re not,” I said softly. “You were just in a fight with your best friend, Maverick. Nothing

    IRIS Dwayne looked pissed as Maverick let him into the house. “What’s going on?” Maverick asked, looking between me and Dwayne. I would’ve said I didn’t know, but judging from the look on Dwayne’s face, I had an idea of what he was doing here. “Megan is keeping something from me,” Dwayne said, “And my gut tells me you know what it is.” He took a few steps closer to me. “So why don’t you be a darling and tell me what I want to know?” I shook my head. “Dwayne, I don’t—” “What the fuck is going on?” came Maverick’s voice, cutting me short. He stepped in front of me, blocking my view of Dwayne and his view of me. “Mav—” I couldn’t see Maverick’s face, but I watched the way his back tensed as Dwayne grew increasingly impatient. “Fuck, no,” Maverick snapped. “You come into my house, questioning my fiance about something I don’t know about. And you didn't even think to come through me?” I swallowed thickly. I didn’t want to see this as Maverick defending me, but I couldn’t help i
