Chapter two

 "Ayanna," Olivia called out to me as I stood up suddenly. "Where are you going to?"

 "You can have all those males to yourself, I found the one I want," I yelled back at her without looking back. I headed toward the man's table though he wasn't alone. There were three other women around him, even though he didn't seem to be interested. Not like I cared if he was. I was going to have him either ways. 

"Hey girls, this one is mine. Go find yourself another one," I dropped into his lap wrapping my arms around his neck while ignoring the grumbling that came from the girls. 

 "How much do you charge handsome? I'm willing to double anything these women here offered," I said to him. A part of me was nervous, thinking he'd push me away instead he wrapped his arms around my waist. His dark gaze shone with amusement as he looked at me. He oozed of sin, danger and mischief. The reasonable part of me I like to call Cindy told me to run away. However I simply ignored her. After all what harm could a male escort do? Furthermore how could I let go of such a fine man when he was everything I imagined of my cheating partner. He was more even. In terms of looks and physique, Alex didn't even come close.

 "I want you to be mine for tonight or for three months. I will pay you a generous amount but you have to work base on my terms."

 He smiled. 

F*ck. 

 So gorgeous. 

 "You didn't even ask about my name and identity," he spoke in the most alluring sultry voice I've ever heard, bringing his hand to my face as though to take off my mask but he trailed my lips instead with this unreadable look. 

"I'm certain you care more about money in this your line of work than, me knowing your name. Beside I already know your identity." 

"Oh you do!" 

His lips curved upwards mischievously.

"I can be whatever you want me to be darling. If this is who you want me to be I'd gladly be it," there was this certain familiarity in his tone. And for a moment I paused not knowing what to do or say. I certainly did not know this man perhaps it was just his way of flirting. I shrugged.

 "You can tell me your name in the bedroom handsome."

He took a sip from the glass he held in his other hand all the while his gaze stayed on me. "Are you certain you want me to be yours?" There was doubt in his eyes and I wondered why.

Taking the glass from him, I chugged down the remaining wine, leaning forward as I spoke "Perhaps this proves it."

I slammed my lips on his, tasting a mix of wine and cigarette in his mouth. The kiss lasted a few minutes before I pulled away. 

"Does this convince you?" I asked. "I could convince you more if you come with me."

I pulled away from him, rising to my feet. He trailed my every move with a heated look, hesitatimg for only a second before rising to his feet too. 

... 

I was starting to have second thoughts the moment we arrived at the sunshine hotel. I booked us a room for the night using Olivia's name. 

"Enjoy your stay," the receptionist yelled after us though I didn't bother giving a reply my mind was too muddled at that moment. 

"This isn't right, don't do this Aya," that was reasonable Cindy talking. 

"Do you want to abandon your revenge plan, go back to your husband and act like all is well when it isn't?" The dark side of me, Vixen countered. 

Oh this is crazy. I ordered wine to get me a bit fuzzy so I wouldn't think so much. As I drank, my escort sat sliently on the bed observing me. There's was this glint in his gorgeous green eyes_ longing, lust. I'm not sure. I was starting to feel intoxicated after three glasses all I could feel now was pain and anger. 

"I loved that man so much, but he cheated on me or has been cheating on me. Apparently even before we got married, worse part is that my dad knew yet he still made me marry him. And What did he say again... Oh, I shouldn't divorce my husband because of mere cheating. Men were polygamous in nature after all, so it's fine if he cheats as long as he doesn't marry her." 

The male escorts was by my side the next second consoling me. There was this tenderness in his eyes as he wiped my tears, placing gentle kisses on my eyes, my cheeks my nose... Okay let's just say things got really heated. 

***

The next morning when I woke up, my mask was gone, I was stark naked and sore all over. Lying next to me was a fine naked stranger. I was about to ask who the f*ck he was until the memories came flooding back. 

 Alex's cheating. My revenge. The passionate night I spent with this gigolo. 

 His gentle kisses, the way he ate my p*ssy and f*cked me until I passed out. Oh my Lord I'm a sinner, a goddamn adulteress. How could I after claiming to love my husband so much.

 "Good morning,"his sinful voice broke through my train of thoughts. I glanced at him and he was looking at me with this eyes, full of lust.

 No, I can't. This ... Oh I shouldn't. 

 "This was a mistake," I said to him as I got out of bed. Picking up my clothes from where I tossed them. I quickly got dressed and after putting on my clothes and face mask. I pulled a bundle of cash from my purse without counting it and gave it to him.

"Forget that this ever happened," 

I ran out of the room afterwards. On my way home, my mind kept replaying what I'd done. What was I thinking? 

 Those thoughts left my head as soon as I got home. 

  "Welcome Madame," it was Judith our house help. "Sir went out early in the morning for urgent business he said he'd be back tonight."

 "Okay, thanks Judith," I replied, heaving a sigh as I walked upstairs. 

"Madam I made breakfast ma'am," Judith called after me but I was in no mood for breakfast right now.

"Thanks Judith. I don't want breakfast but could you please prepare a hangover soup for me my head hurts... Thank you," I told her before heading to mine and Alex's room. 

The room was neatly arranged and the bedsheet had been changed leaving no signs of Alex's infidelity. Still I couldn't help but feel disgusted so I returned to the living room. After taking the the hangover soap Judith prepared, I tried to finish some of my work though it was impossible since I had a lot in mind. Somehow I dozed off when I opened my eyes again I found Alex peering at me.

He smiled, "I didn't mean to wake you up honey. But you were just too beautiful I couldn't resist the urge to look at you when I walked in."

Normally, those kind of words would've got me blushing like a fool, now I felt utterly disgusted. Yet I smiled. 

"I bought you your favorite flowers and cake lets have dinner together." 

He gently picked me up princess style carrying me all the way to the dining table where dinner was already set. Alex placed me on a sit beside him. Next he gave me the flowers and cake. 

"I just wanted to remind you of my love for you. Even though I tell you everyday it will never be enough. I love you Ayanna always and I'll always be yours and faithful to you."

Oh christ Jesus! 

Could he stop talking. How could one lie so perfectly. He was an absolute lying champion he should be award for how well he does it. 

If I hadn't caught him cheating, I probably would've still been fooled by this while he probably laughed behind my back at how stupid I was.  

"Uhmm Alex the food would get cold if you keep this up." I swatted his shoulder playful. He wasn't the only one good at pretending I was trained at it too. 

After dinner, Alex carried me to our room. He gave me that heated look he usually does when he wanted sex but God forbid I sex this whore of a man. The mere though of it had me almost throwing up the dinner I ate. 

"Alex, I feel a bit sick. I'm going to bed," I gently pushed him away when he leaned in for kiss.

"Honey what's wrong? If you're not well I'll take you to the hospital right now."

Again with the pretends. I wanted to scream at him to cut the act. Instead I said "Oh hubby, don't worry It's nothing serious. I already visited the hospital with Li this morning after we finished the event last night. Once I get enough rest I'm good as new." 

"Oh that's good to hear because I wouldn't want you to fall sick right when I'm about to leave for a business trip. It would last a whole month but I promise to spend the entire week with you to make up for the lost time after I return.
