Love, lies and, secrets 57. His mistress
ANNA I unconsciously stared into Alejandro's eyes with his hands still wrapped firmly around my waist. I knew that we needed to leave here as soon as possible so that we don't end up getting caught but neither one of us was willing to look away. "How long do you plan on staying here and hiding away from your guests?" I asked. I had no problem being here with him cause if I was being honest with myself, I didn't want to leave the position I was in right now because I enjoyed being this close to him but at the same time, I didn't like the fact that I had to worry about getting caught because it was very nerve-racking for me. I wished that Alejandro and I could be in a position where we were genuinely comfortable around each other without having to fear that someone was going to catch us but unfortunately for us, we couldn't be like that because he was married, I was his sister-in-law and getting caught was only going to be detrimental to both of us. "I honestly don't feel like lea

ANNA My question seemed to have taken him by surprise and I could tell that he wanted to say something but he didn't have anything to say cause he just kept closing and opening his mouth. "That explains it. This...," I pointed at myself and then at him while creating a little distance between us."Between us doesn't have a future. It's just going to be for a while and that's it. And that's why I told you what you feel is just sexual attraction even though what I feel for you is more than that. For this reason, I can't afford to take the risk of being with you so that you don't end up toying with my emotions" I clarified, running my finger through my hair."This is exactly my problem with you, Anna. You keep insisting that what I feel for you is just sexual attraction and I've told you times without number that your assumption is wrong but you refuse to believe me and you only believe in whatever it is that you want to believe which is frustrating," he hissed and I rolled my eyes.

Love, lies and, secrets 59. Jealousy
ANNAI was seated in the passengers' seat with my head resting on the window whilst Alejandro and Alice were seated in the back seat. Alice was leaning into Alejandro and cuddling him like a child and she also didn't stop giggling like a child at whatever he was whispering to her. I could see everything that they were doing from the mirror in front of me and I could also tell that Alejandro was glancing toward me cause my eyes met with his quite a few times. Each time I locked gaze with him, he’d stop whatever he was saying to Alice and I would mentally scoff at how foolish he was. I already agreed to be his woman but that doesn’t mean I’d let him treat me this way.I had no issues with him being all lovey-dovey with his wife but I found it very disrespectful that he didn't seem to remember that I was sitting right in front of them and he couldn't even think to consider my feelings. I knew that I was wrong to feel this way especially since I have no one else to blame but myself for

ANNA As soon as I noticed that the driver had arrived home, I didn't waste any more seconds before coming down from the car and immediately rushing upstairs. I was thankful that Alice didn't see the need to call me back and ask me what was going on because I didn't think I was in the right state of mind to be polite to her. I hurriedly walked into my room, locked the door behind me and kicked off my shoes recklessly. I stripped out of my dress and walked into the bathroom to take a quick shower and also hoped that the water would help calm my nerves and lighten my terrible mood.When I got out of the bathroom and stepped into my room, I noticed a figure and it turned out to be Alejandro, who had his back leaned against the wall.I was honestly surprised to see him here because I didn't expect him to have time to come here, especially since Alice seemed to be in a good mood and she could have kept him busy. "What are you doing here, Alejandro?" I asked, making it obvious that I was

ALICEIn the last few days, I've tried hard not to overthink things and cloud my mind with several thoughts but it's getting even more difficult not to overthink and be suspicious because of how things were going between Alejandro and me. I didn't want to distrust my husband or feel some type of way around him but the truth is that I couldn't help how I felt because Alejandro has been acting some type of way in the last few days and I couldn't help but overthink the situation and suspect that something was going on with him. It has gotten to the point where Alejandro is no longer affectionate with me and even when I tried my best to be affectionate with him, he would refuse my advances and I didn't understand why he had suddenly started to act this way. I would try to give him a quick kiss but he would refuse me immediately. He had done that twice to me in public but I let it go and ignored it because I felt he might not have known and that it could be a mistake on his part but tod
Love, lies and, secrets 62. In her head
ALICE I honestly couldn't imagine a life without Alejandro in it and I've always looked forward to the day we'd be a complete family. Alejandro knew that I was quite worried about the fact that I hadn't gotten pregnant all this while and I knew just how stressed out I was over the situation especially because we've seen different doctors to ask what could be wrong and they've all said that there was nothing wrong with either one of us. Even though the doctors had assured me that everything was fine with me, I still wasn't satisfied with their responses and I was starting to wonder if Alejandro could have told them to say that to me because he didn't want them to worry about me. The situation between us made me think so far to the point where I was even starting to believe that the reason he was being this way towards me was that we still haven't had a child yet. "As much as it breaks my heart to ask you this question, I'm going to ask you anyways and I need you to be very honest

ALEJANDROAlice wrapped her arms around me, refusing to let me go and I sighed before patting her back lightly to ease her mind so that she would finally let go of me. "It's okay Alice, I'll only be gone for two days," I reminded her but she still refused to let go of me.I just informed her that I was going on a trip and that I would be back in the next two days and her mood has changed since I told her. She didn't stop hanging around me and touching me at every chance that she got to show that she didn't want me to leave and I had to keep reminding her that I was only going to be gone for two days. "I know you're only going to be gone for two days but something about this trip doesn't feel right to me and I don't know why I feel like you should just send someone else to represent you instead of having to go by yourself. I'm more than certain that you can send someone else to represent you and it's not going to cost you anything," she repeated for the umpteenth time and I just don
Love, lies and, secrets 64. Making Memories
ALEJANDROI arrived at the villa a few minutes ago and just in case, I already informed my secretary to let Alice know that I was in Alaska for a business trip because I had the feeling that Alice might ask to confirm. I couldn't exactly disregard Alice's intelligence because she was quite observant and I wouldn't be surprised if she found something weird with my sudden trip and decided to find out for herself if I had gone on a business trip. I walked into the villa and let out a sigh at the different environment. It's been quite a while since I came here last and the last person that I was here with was Alice. I had made sure to get rid of everything that would make it obvious that Alice was the last person to visit because I didn't want Anna to get upset like she did last time. She had specifically warned me not to make her feel like a mistress or put her in any situation where she would feel like she was in second place and I couldn't help but think to myself, was Anna a mistr
