69. MONIQUE'S POV

I stretch on my bed for a few minutes before jumping off to the bathroom. It's been two days since I got the mysterious text, two days since I won Mia into my good boo, two days since I gave my boss whom happens to be my bestfriend's ex a blowjob in his office.

The two days in between has been nothing short of excitement with the videos and pictures coming in with no follow text. I've tried to reply or figure out who's email it is but it's not working and the sad part is he's sharing my nudes to my email so I can't even show my email to someone even if they have solutions. I haven't told Desmond anything besides the mysterious sense haven't requested for anything or made threats yet. So, he doesn't need to know how worried I am, or that I've starting discussing our situation ship with a friend online and I'm this close to sharing everything with him.

  • In Bed With My Step-uncle    262 - Right Path.

    I’ve never felt so lost in my entire life. The hours after Claire left are a blur. I’ve been pacing my apartment, staring out the window at the city lights, trying to make sense of everything. But no matter how much I try to make sense of it, nothing feels real.I made a choice, a choice that changed everything. And now, I have to live with it. The apartment feels suffocating now. The silence is louder than it’s ever been. I try to focus on the work on my desk, but the words blur together. The numbers don’t make sense. I’m not really here. My mind keeps wandering back to Claire, to the way she looked at me when I told her the truth.She was right, I chose Xander. But what does that even mean? What happens now?My phone vibrates on the desk, pulling me out of my thoughts. I glance down, it’s a message from Xander.“You okay?”I feel a twinge of guilt. I don’t know if I’m okay, but he’s the only one who seems to care. The only one who’s waiting for me to figure thisout.I type a quick r

  • In Bed With My Step-uncle    261- Confessing Feelings

    I don’t know what I expect when I walk into the club again. Maybe I think I’ll find clarity in the flashing lights and the pounding music, like everything else will fade into the background, and I’ll have an answer to the questions swirling in my head. But nothing feels clear. The air smells like sweat and perfume, and my heart is racing faster than it should be.I feel the weight of every step I take toward the back VIP section, knowing what I’m about to do, knowing what this moment is about. I didn’t want to come here, not after what happened with Claire. I never wanted to hurt her. But I couldn’t lie to her anymore. I couldn’t keep pretending that everything was fine when it wasn’t.And now, here I am, about to see Xander again. I don’t know what I expect from him, either. I know what I want, but I’m not sure if I can have it. Can I really walk away from everything I’ve known? My family, my future, my entire life… for him?I walk into the back room, and there he is, sitting at one

  • In Bed With My Step-uncle    260 - The Fallout

    Morning came by pretty quickly. I barely even slept, tossing and turning in a bed that felt too big, too empty. My mind was racing, replaying everything: the kiss with Xander, the conversation with Claire, the words I said to her… the lies I told myself.Now, I’m sitting in my office, staring at my computer screen without really seeing anything. I should be working. I should be thinking about the merger, about the company, about the engagement. But all I can think about is Xander, his touch, the way he made me feel like I was alive in a way I haven’t been in years. And Claire, the way I looked at her last night and couldn’t see the future I was supposed to have with her anymore.I thought I could live this life, this perfect, easy life. But it’s not real, and I know it now. A knock on my door shakes me out of my thoughts."Come in."The door opens, and Claire walks in, her expression unreadable. She’s dressed in a sharp suit, the kind of look that says business, but there’s something

  • In Bed With My Step-uncle    259 - Consequences

    The quiet in my apartment feels heavier than usual tonight. The kind of silence that presses against your skin, making every breath feel like a reminder of the decisions you’ve made. I shouldn’t be here. I shouldn’t be lying to Claire, I shouldn’t even be lying to myself.But here I am, staring at my phone, replaying the way Xander kissed me. Over and over in my mind. It’s like the whole world faded away when his lips touched mine. I close my eyes, trying to block out the memory. I can still feel it, like the heat is still on my skin. I know I can’t keep pretending anymore. I’ve crossed a line, and now there’s no turning back.But what does that mean for everything else? The thought of Claire comes to mind. I don’t want to hurt her, I never did. But I’ve hurt her already, haven’t I? The truth is, I’ve been lying to both of us this whole time. I was never fully there. Not in the way I should have been.I take a deep breath and sit down on the couch, grabbing my phone. I should call her

  • In Bed With My Step-uncle    258 - The point of no return

    I’ve never felt this lost in my life.It’s like I’m walking down a path, but every time I try to look ahead, the road just keeps turning. I’m not sure which way to go, but I can’t stop moving. And the harder I try to find my way, the more I feel like I’m falling off the edge.I’ve been avoiding Xander for the past few days, it’s not easy. Every time I step outside, I see something that reminds me of him. The night we kissed, the way his body moved when he danced. His eyes... god, those eyes that make everything inside me ache.But I’ve been doing a good job of pretending. Pretending I’m not thinking about him. Pretending I’m not feeling this pull every time someone mentions his name. Pretending that everything’s fine between me and Claire. But it’s not fine, I’m not fine.Today, I was supposed to meet Claire’s parents for dinner. The engagement was supposed to be a chance to strengthen everything, our relationship, the deal with the company, our future. It was supposed to be simple.

  • In Bed With My Step-uncle    257 - Facing Temptation

    The city feels different tonight, like it's holding something back. Maybe it’s me, maybe it’s the fact that I’m standing outside the club again, unsure if I should go in or just turn around and walk away. I’ve done this before, stood in front of this place, wondering if I should follow through on whatever crazy impulse I’m feeling. But this time feels different. This time, I’m not here just because I need a distraction. I’m here because I need to know something. I need to know what’s real and what’s just in my head.I take a deep breath and push the door open. The noise hits me immediately, the bass vibrating through the floor, the lights flashing in time with the music. It’s chaotic, but in a way that almost feels comforting. It’s the kind of place where no one asks questions, where everything is forgotten as soon as it happens.I move through the crowd, trying to ignore the way my heart speeds up with every step I take. I’m not sure if it’s the music or the thought of seeing Xander
