CARLA POV

Following prolonged hours of agony which turned into several days filled with silent treatments and tense phone calls along with painful unspoken words a weak truce started coming together. Audrey withdrew into her space to heal her pain while I attempted to mend our broken connection at Sean's encouragement.

Audrey quietly contemplated the atmosphere of her late father's study, which held his collection of books and the gentle aroma of aged paper mixed with pipe tobacco. Her gaze fixed on his framed picture which captured him as a younger man full of life and a playful spark in his eyes.

I entered the room speaking her name quietly as "Audrey." She didn't flinch, but her shoulders tensed. "I know you're angry. And you have every right to be." I stood in front of the old leather armchair across from her without sitting down. "This isn't easy for any of us. And I handled it badly. We should have talked about this sooner instead of me leaving you with all this information a

    AUDREY POV Raw sobs subsided after what seemed like endless crying but left me with a hollow chest pain and a fiery sensation behind my eyes. My face was swollen, my throat raw. I understood I couldn't continue living like this while being consumed by my own suffering. I needed someone. Despite my hand trembling slightly, I picked up my phone and navigated to the single contact I knew I could trust. Laurel. My sister who became a lawyer served as my confidante and the only family member who truly understood me. I said "Hello Laurel" as my voice broke and shattered with the remains of my tears hanging on every word. "Hi, Audrey! What's wrong?" Her voice revealed her immediate concern and she asked what was wrong while she could detect my distress through the phone connection. I screamed her name "Laurel" without being able to express my profound suffering. The words wouldn't form. "Audrey, talk to me. What happened?" she pressed, her tone gentle but firm. In desperation I ch

    UNCLE SEAN "Audrey, I need to talk with you," I said while carefully controlling my voice to suppress rising irritation. My hand motioned toward the vacant seat opposite me at the polished conference table. "Please, sit." My younger sister Audrey stood erect with her arms crossed and her jaw set in defiance. "What is it, Liam? I don't want to listen to this conversation again if it concerns that topic. A sigh escaped me while I combed my fingers through my hair. We need to accept this situation so we can continue living our lives." I said with newfound earnest conviction. "It's for the best, for everyone. Especially for you, long term." Audrey started to speak when the study door abruptly swung open. "Oh, Carla, you're awake!" I exclaimed as my true smile emerged when my beautiful wife entered our unexpected family session wearing her silk robe. She responded softly "Yea, I am," while her voice radiated warmth. She moved toward me while lightly touching my shoulder before bend

    BRYAN POV Our business conversations replayed in my mind as I listened to her concealed insults and her pretentious disdain. She thought I wouldn't have the skills to defeat someone at her level because she viewed me as less competent. This transaction allowed me to prove my abilities and reach an equal position with her. I told her she would try to find an escape while I predicted her next action and secured my hair into a bun. She will try to buy time as she reaches out to her network for assistance.

    BRYAN POV The ceiling fan rotated slowly above me as I lay in bed without moving the humid Oyigbo air. The afternoon stillness broke abruptly when loud moans came from Uncle Sean's room – the room of my former wife's paternal uncle. It wasn't the first time. I laughed quietly to myself while an ironic smile formed on my face. He is surely a wicked man who is so forcefully taking another man's wife. I experienced a mental image that I immediately pushed away. The situation was scandalous but somehow it provided me with an odd kind of entertainment. What did I care about? It was his life, his choices. I shifted, getting more comfortable. "His choices are none of my business," I muttered to myself even though the words served as a personal reminder. He needs to follow exactly what I told him to do. Louder moans followed by a throaty gasp broke through the thin walls. My smile widened. The noises indicated he was working hard for his payment today. I'd rather he were sweating like t

    NINA. As the video call concluded I felt flushed and breathless yet experienced a strong emotional bond with Drew. Our virtual intimacy temporarily overshadowed my concerns about Morel's health and my undisclosed secret. The silence of the night returned to my room while it brought back my concerns about my grandson's sickness as well as the secret I needed to keep hidden. Drew typed "Baby, my dick is erect and growing bigger," and those words showed up on my screen as thrilling evidence of how I affected him. "Oo!" My mouth opened wide with a spontaneous cry of surprise and excitement. My eyes fixed on the screen as I felt the thrill of eager anticipation build up within me. "Can I see it, please?" I pleaded with trembling fingers rapidly moving over the keyboard. "Yes, of course," he responded before the camera angle changed. His movement of the phone caused my breath to catch when his erect penis took up the screen space with its undeniable hardness and glistening appearance. T

    NINA He paused his typing before entering "I love that idea," which he then followed with "What would you be wearing when you ride me, Laurel?" Or would you be naked?" I laughed softly to myself. "Naked, of course. Feeling every bit of you against me. My hair would stand completely wild and remain attached to your chest. "Sounds perfect," he typed, a small pause. What would you wish for me to do to you immediately after I remove your clothes? When I finally get you naked." I asked to experience your hands moving across my body while I shut my eyes to surrender to this fantasy. "Exploring every curve. And your mouth... I need to experience your mouth surrounding me completely, Drew. Starting with my breasts." "Your breasts, huh?" he echoed, "Always my favorite. If I started caressing you there would you respond by arching into my touch? You're teasing me with minimal contact which drives me completely insane. My fingers moved across the keyboard as my body reacted instinctivel
