"Oh God,Tristan…ahh…more…fuck me…Oh."
Those moaning sounds reverberated in my head as a watched her on top of my husband,riding his cock.The sound of skin slapping against skin filled my ears.
I watched as she bent her head and kissed his lips,while gyrating her hips at the same time.
She seemed to be in cloud nine as she rode him faster and harder.
My breath was stuck in my throat.Though I could only see his side view but I couldn't miss the shirt on his body.
He was still clad on a shirt though the lower half of his body was exposed.
It was a shirt I had specially picked for him this morning.A custom made shirt that I had gotten for him on his last birthday and he was currently on it while being fucked by another woman.
Another pain fact was that the woman was none other than Phoebe Hudson,she was his ex-girlfriend and the fact that she had been in his life before had always troubled me because I felt that was the reason he couldn't love me.
I always felt that he was still hung up on her and tonight,my suspicion has been confirmed to be true.
As her moans came from the phone again,my hands grew shaky and the phone fell.
To say I was heartbroken was an understatement.It felt as if something was pressing down on my chest and I was finding it hard to breathe.
Why was this happening to me?
Why?
I had always dreamt of him touching me,I had always longed for him to hold me just once but he never did.
And now,he was having all the fun in the world with that woman?!
On our wedding anniversary?
After all these years,did I not still matter to him?
Tears spilled from my eyes,I was unable to stop it as I cried my eyes out.
I had given all the maids a day off today and I had spent the whole day preparing to make our wedding anniversary memorable.It was a day that I had been looking forward to for the three years all because of his promise to me.
I sniffed as the memory flashed through my head.
I was on a wedding dress,it had been one of the happiest days of my life because I was getting married to the love of my life.
But Tristan Godoy was far from happy today as he slammed a piece of paper on the doctor.
"Sign it!"He had ordered.
I cocked an eyebrow."What's this?"
"A prenup."
I picked it up and read through,the agreement stated that we would be married for only three years and after that,we would go their separate ways.
During our time of being married,none of us were allowed to cheat and we could also not have sex with each other.
The agreement had broken my heart.
I had thought we would be married for the rest of our lives and live happily ever after.
But he only wanted to stay married to him for three years and we won't even be intimate?
I couldn't exactly blame him though at that time because he was forced into this.
I had greatly been on help to his grandmother and she grew so fond of me that she told me that she'd do anything I wanted.
I had boldly told her that I wished to be married to Tristan.I was hopefully in love with him and I just wanted to be with him.
But he hated being forced to marry me more than anything.
Taking a deep breath,I concluded that I would use this three years to prove to him that I was worthy of his love and affection.
I would use this three years to make him love me.
So I signed the prenup just as he wanted and then I asked.
"What if you fall in love with me?Will you still want a divorce after three years?"
Tristan stared at me,scornfully."If that happens which I greatly doubt then we'll have no reason to get divorced.If I do find you likable after three years,we'll become a real couple."
I didn't want him to get back on his words so I pressed on.
"You promise?"
He rolled his eyes."Yeah,I promise."
So I held onto that promise for three years.I had abandoned my dignity,I had kept my distance from my family and I did literally everything to please him.
Even if it hurt me deeply that he never took me out on dates and even touched me,I had thought that someday,he would become my Prince Charming.
My phone beeped from the floor.
Choking on my tears,I slowly picked down and picked it up.
It seem I was sent another video again.I shakily played it to see that they seemed to be done with their romp.
Phoebe's hair was messy and her make up was smeared as if they had been going at it for hours.
I didn't want to watch anymore but I couldn't help it.
"Cora,Cora…"Phoebe called,smiling evilly on the video."Now will you finally let him be with him?Will you stop forcing yourself on a man who doesn't want you?"
I couldn't bear to watch anymore and I couldn't stand the sight of her caressing Tristan.
I threw my phone away and held my head in dismay.
It was as if I had finally snapped out of my delusional state.
Tristan didn't love me,he didn't respect me and he never planned to.He even forgot that our anniversary was today.He still hates being married to me.
And what the hell have I been doing?I gave up my life,gave up my title for a man who didn't regard me at all.
My anger turned to pain and I screamed as I destroyed everything in my reach.
My anger turned to pain and I screamed as I marched into the dining room to dispose the food.He didn't deserve to eat my good meals anymore.He didn't deserve everything I had done for him.
I was done trying to please him!
No matter how painful this was,I had to put an end to this madness!
I was nobody's fool!
The grand and opulent hall of the Angolan ambassador’s mansion was adorned with elegant chandeliers, sparkling with crystal ornaments. Draping’s of luxurious fabrics lined the walls, displaying the Angolan flag and rich cultural tapestries. Dazzlingly dressed guests filled the room, their designer gowns and tuxedos a sight to behold. Natalie stood at the entrance of the hall with her father. The white gold of her father’s Patek Philippe wristwatch glistened under the chandeliers as he held out his elbow for her to hold. Natalie thanked him with a timid smile. Her father knew she loathed attending these events filled with pretentious people, but business deals closed at galas and parties of aristocrats. The scent of expensive perfume and cologne mingled with the aroma of gourmet food and champagne as they strode down the hall to the ballroom. Palmer walked a few feet behind them, looking wickedly handsome in his black suit, a discreet earpiece tucked behind his wavy
The pool stretched across the entire penthouse floor, its crystal blue waters now a subdued blue, with a silvery golden glow from the moonlight and the penthouse lights. From its vantage point, the stunning Manhattan skyline can be seen in all its glory, with towering buildings and crowded streets all in view.Natalie dipped her fingers into the pool, the temperature-controlled water warm to the touch, as ripples created by her friends in the pool splashed against the edge of the pool.“Get in girlie,” Aniyah said, leaning on the edge of the pool, her strong legs kicking the surface of the water. Her hair was in a high ponytail, but wasps of wet hair curled on the nape of her neck.Natalie sat on the edge of the pool and dipped her legs. “Nah huh, gurl, I just had my hair done.” She brushed back her long straight hair and stuck her tongue out jokingly at her friend.Makayla swum to them, hoisting herself off the pool and sat next to Natalie. “Girl, you do look hot in that bikini.” She
“Are you two together now?” Mark asked, glancing at Palmer. They were in the SUV driving to Global Security’s Brooklyn office. Isaiah had requested a meeting with them.Natalie was at her office with Mateo, another bodyguard with Global Security. Palmer knew that she was safe, but he was eager to go back to her. The frightened expression that she had when he kicked down the door to that dirty room that she was kept in, was seared in his mind.Scratching his stubble that was quickly turning into a beard, he contemplated what he was going to say to Mark.“I don’t know what you are talking about,” Palmer said.Mark rolled his eyes, his hands swiftly turning the steering wheel. “I’m not stupid. I’ve seen how y’all act around each other.”Palmer just grunted and glanced outside the window at the passing scenery of the Brooklyn Bridge.“Look, I won’t say anything to Isaiah, but I would like to know what’s going on since I’m your partner in this protection assignment.”“Alright. Geez, you ne
Natalie kicked off her high heels by her apartment door while Palmer did the security checks in the apartment.She only moved away from the door when he returned and muttered “clear” to her.Huffing, she stomped to the kitchen. “Can you believe the gall of that guy?” she scoffed.“What guy?” Palmer asked nonchalantly.She gave him an irritated look. “Aaden! Him asking me to be his second wife? As if I can be second to anybody.” She opened the wine fridge and pulled out a white wine bottle. Popping the cork, she poured it into a wine glass and took a large gulp. Palmer stood near the kitchen counter, he’s arms loosely crossed in a relaxed manner, but the tense muscles across his chest and arms gave away that he was anything but relaxed.“If he had said that he’ll leave his wife, would you have gone with him?” Palmer asked, the crossed arms tightening with the question.Natalie couldn’t help but give a gape of astonishment at his words. “No! He had his chance the first time, but instead
Natalie stepped out of her en-suite bathroom, the steam billowing out behind her. She had taken a scorching shower the minute she arrived at her apartment. Trying to wash away the nightmare that was the last 24 hours. Sitting in that school room in Angola, she had felt that she was counting down th
Natalie stood up from where she was crouching down on the bucket. She took a water bottle and washed her hands. Pulling up her jeans, she slowly walked back to the spot where she’d made a makeshift bed with the blankets she had been given. She didn’t know what time it was, but she guessed early mor
The black Jeep Grand Cherokee with dark tinted windows pulled up on the tarmac of the Teterboro Airport. The glossy whiteness of the private jet offset the gloominess of the cloudy day. Mark climbed out of the driver’s side and opened the passenger’s door.“Ms. Lopes, your bags have already been ca
Palmer breathed in the roasted aroma of the Colombian coffee that wafted from the coffee cup being filled by the sci-fi looking coffee maker. His mouth watered from the smell; in his entire existence, he had not tasted such excellent coffee.As he waited for the coffee in the small kitchenette, he
