Larissa’s Pov

Three days later.

Zephan kept to his words. He was always home before six. Making dinner plans, attentive. The things that I never knew he could be. He was.

And then there was the intimate part. The fact that he wanted to touch me, wanted to do something more. But I couldn’t do that. I couldn’t brag myself to sleep with him.

“Zephan,” I whispered, lowly pulling away from his touch. “Maybe we should…”

He sighed. I

    Larissa’s Pov Three days later. Zephan kept to his words. He was always home before six. Making dinner plans, attentive. The things that I never knew he could be. He was. And then there was the intimate part. The fact that he wanted to touch me, wanted to do something more. But I couldn’t do that. I couldn’t brag myself to sleep with him. “Zephan,” I whispered, lowly pulling away from his touch. “Maybe we should…”He sighed. I expected him to flare up, but he didn’t. he just smiled, “Okay, I understand, it is fine,” he muttered. That was new. I was thinking that he would be the Zephan that I knew, the one that would scream his voice through the roof. “I am just happy that we are doing this, making us work again,” he said. I nodded.My mind wasn’t on him, it was back to the fact that last night I had a moment of weakness, and I had called Harl, sent a thousand messages and yet, he gave not

  • My Husband Wants An Open Marriage    Chapter 71

    Larissa’s PovThere are things I have never seen with Zephan. Vulnerability, was one of them.“Why… what changed?” I asked, my heart squeezing loudly in my chest.He sighed, staring at me with a look that says eh is broken, “My mother…. She wasn’t the best, but she has… had people that cared, that will cry after her… and me…” he choked. “I feel like I have no one, just you,” he said in a soft tone.I didn’t know if I should laugh or actually pity him. The moment of epiphany must have really hit him hard, because staring at this man, the same one that said he didn’t care if I stood by him, wondering why suddenly he needed love from me.“What about the girls? The bunnies like you like to call them?” I asked. I wasn’t trying to kick him while he was down, but I knew that I needed to understand what was going through that head of his.His hand grabbed mine, his eyes watery as he stared at my face, “Larissa, please let’s make this work, we have to make this marriage work,” he said. “You a

    Larissa’s Pov“We need to talk.” Words a thousand people hate hearing from a mile away.And yet, Zephan said it with so much calmness in his tone. The kind that I haven’t heard him speak in a long time. I tried to keep my mind from wandering, but there was nothing that could stop the thoughts, from the way he eyed me as if he was waiting for me to fall on my knees and tell him the truth.To the way he was silent, almost as if the weight of the words crushed him too. I gulped, my eyes taking in the meal before me. Did he know? If he did why was he happy to make me tea?My breath hitched, my eyes fixed on the cup and plates laid out before me. Was this laced with something? Was this his way of trying to poison me? Oh god, I could feel how fast my heart was beating, my hands trembling as I tried to move away from the plate.“Larissa?”“Larissa?”My eyes snapped back to reality, I found Zephan staring at me with a soft look on his face he looked slightly worried. “Are you okay?” he aske

    Larissa’s PovShe had walked away, but for some reason, I couldn’t bring myself to move. I couldn’t think past the fact that she was here. The woman Harl had left me for was here.I stared at the reception, watching the way she smiled at the nurse, they all acted differently around her, as if they were vying for her attention, happy to be around her. She laughed, leaning in to say something to the nurse.Her head turned slowly to where I was standing, and the nurse followed her gaze, whispering something back as they laughed. My heart beat skipped, what were they saying?Does she know me?Questions; I had a thousand of them, but standing here and pondering wasn’t going to help“I can’t stand here,” I muttered to myself as I rushed through the revolving doors. Whatever it is that they were talking about, I didn’t want to be a part of itOne fear stood out, the fact that she could tell Harl about this before I had the chance to tell him. She would ruin…what would he think? Will he be h

  • My Husband Wants An Open Marriage    Chapter 68

    Larissa’s PovI couldn’t move. I was sitting behind the steering wheel, my blurry vision still on Lennie’s house. She didn’t push me out. But her words did. Because after she screamed that I should leave, she walked away, leaving me standing in her kitchen like some forgotten trash.What have I done?The question ran through my mind a thousand times over. What the hell have I been doing all my life? Lennie is my best friend and yet, I never once saw that she was hurting. That she was looking for help from me.I didn’t see that. All that I cared about was my problems and how she was going to fix them. Fix me, lift me. Everything was about me and never about her.“Oh god! I called her wayward,” I sobbed. But this felt like an antidote to an already working poison. I had said the words, and I had hurt her.There was a part of me that wanted to run in there, wanted to go in and beg that I be given a chance to explain myself. But then there was the fact that she didn’t want to see me, did

  • My Husband Wants An Open Marriage    Chapter 67

    Larissa’s PovThere are times when you walk away. And there are times when you say the words that break more than just a thought.“All you do is sleep around with anything willing to jump inside you,” I sneered. Silence stretched between us.“Your kids aren’t spared that knowledge. You could at least try to be a good mom if you can’t maintain a wife position. Divorce isn’t some skin care routine! Some of us have other things to consider! What the hell is wrong with you!” My voice cracked.Lennie stared at me with wide eyes, her hands trembling as she looked on. And me? The words had gone through so fast that my brain couldn’t keep up.And when it did. I moved forward, my hands reaching out to grab her, “Lennie, I... I didn’t....”“You did,” her tone low and final.“No...I... I didn’t mean it I was just...”Her head snapped up, her eyes meeting my gaze. I could see the sadness, the hurt of someone betrayed by her friend.“Isn’t that what you think of me?”“No...no I would...”She le
