I was in the living room, waiting for Kendra to finish getting ready. She told me her dress was emerald green, and I ended up buying a new tie that matched its color because I didn’t have a matching tie.

I heard the sound of her heels against the floor, so I stood up. When I turned around, my heart skipped a beat. She didn’t just look beautiful—she was an absolute goddess.

Her dress perfectly hugged her body, making me wonder if it was possible to look this good. The beaded bodice and the sleek satin skirt made her glow. The dress was long, reaching the floor, and it had a slit that gave the design a sensual touch.

“You’ve been staring for a little while. Should I be worried?” I liked the playfulness in her voice.

“You look stunning,” I said, unable to prevent myself from smiling as she walked toward me.

“You look good, too.” Her rose-tinted cheeks got pinker. “Your tie is exactly the same shade as my dress.” Her hazel eyes were bright as she looked at me.

    “Okay, I need you to be completely honest with me,” my wife said as she stood in front of me. I had just come back from work. What did she want to talk about?Did she find out about my plan? Terror filled me because I still needed time. I couldn’t just tell her now.“About what?” I tried to school my tone.“Are you behind the money laundering scandal John is accused of?” She had a wide smile on her face as she asked. Relief washed over me. For a second, I thought I was going to lose her.“Well, he hurt my wife.” I shrugged with a smirk on my face, shoving my hands in my pockets.“He deserves to rot in hell,” she whispers, throwing her arms around me. I smiled as I took my hands out and gently held her body close to mine, letting her sweet scent tickle my nostrils. I was addicted to Kendra.“The rest is yet to come, flame,” I whispered and kissed her forehead.“You know… I don’t know why our families hate one another,” she said as she pulled away, took my hand, and guided me to the kit

    “Are you sure this is safe?” Declan asked the guy who was securing my ropes for the third time.“Yes, there’s nothing to worry about,” he reassured him.While my husband was on edge because I was about to jump off a 721-foot Dam, I was ecstatic. This was something I had always dreamed of doing. Indeed, the view was scary, but it was also beautiful.“Stop stressing!” I exclaimed, giving him a quick kiss before heading to the edge.“Ready?” the instructor asked me, and I nodded vigorously. “Jump whenever you’re ready.” My heart thudded in my chest at his words.I looked down one last time before looking back at my husband with a huge grin on my face. “See you down there, baby!” I hollered and jumped.The world dropped as I felt myself flying in the air. A scream ripped out of my throat, and I couldn’t decide if it was out of terror or enthusiasm. Everything blurred past me in seconds, and for a second, I thought I was about to die, but then the cord snapped, and my scream turned into lo

    It was my first time going to his office, but I wanted to surprise him. I got him his favorite lunch, and I also wanted to see the décor of his office to paint him something that would suit it.“I would like to see Mr. Davenport, please,” I told the receptionist on the first floor.“Is there an appointment?” she asked without looking at me.“No,” I replied.“Then you can’t meet him.” Again, she didn’t look at me.“I’m his wife,” I said, which caused her to immediately look at me. Her eyes widened upon seeing me, and she quickly stood up.“I’m so sorry, Mrs. Davenport. Mr. Davenport gave us clear instructions to let you in whenever you visit. I’m so sorry, I was looking at some files and didn’t notice you were the one talking to me,” she apologized profusely.“It’s okay, I guess I can go now, right?” I smiled at her.“Of course. Here’s your card to go through the entrance gates.” She handed me a black card and told me where Declan’s office was.It took me around three minutes to reach

    When I walked into my home, I frowned when I heard yelling coming from the living room.What the hell was going on?Upon reaching the living room, my wife screamed her puppy’s name as her asshole of a father kicked him. I saw red when I saw the way he had been holding her and what he had done to Pepper.“Let go of my wife,” I growled, marching toward him.The moment he let go of her, she rushed to Pepper’s side, who was whimpering on the ground. The kick was too strong for his small body to handle. If he died, Kendra would be devastated.I glared at John as my jaw clenched, then I walked over to my wife. I knelt beside her as she cried while holding Pepper, who was still whimpering.“Declan, we need to take him to the vet, please.” She looked at me with tears running down her face. He was going to pay for making her cry. But there was another thing I noticed that made pure rage course through my entire body—bright red finger marks on her cheek.“We will, baby.” I kissed her forehead b

    “Don’t laugh at me, but when is Declan’s birthday?” I asked Lana. I felt embarrassed to ask her about his birthday, but it wasn’t like our marriage circumstances were the best. We didn’t get to know each other the normal way, and so many steps had been skipped, but I knew we could fix it all and get our own beautiful love story.“October 21st,” she told me, causing me to sigh in relief. “It’s still three months away. You have time to think about the perfect gift and all of that.”“He literally has everything. I don’t know what to get him,” I groaned, throwing my head back. What could I possibly get a billionaire? The man could get anything he wanted.“He will love whatever you give him,” she assured me. “If it makes you feel any better, you really make him happy. I don’t think I have seen my brother this happy before.”Her words took me by surprise because I wasn’t doing anything special, but it warmed my heart to know that he was happy with me. I wasn’t just happy with him; I was ove

    “Okay, man, you’re in love with your wife,” my brother chuckled, and I frowned.No, I wasn’t in love with her. I couldn’t be in love with her. That was too soon. How could someone fall in love in just a few months? It didn’t make sense in my head.“I agree,” Elijah stated, and my frown deepened as I looked at the two of them.“No, I’m not,” I said, shaking my head. I couldn’t fall for her this fast.“You are, and there’s nothing wrong with that,” Bryce agreed with them. “We understand that this was all a marriage of convenience for you, but I’m certain it’s nothing like that anymore.”“What makes you think I’m in love with her?” I asked, taking a sip from my beer.“The fact that you can’t spend five minutes without looking at her. And you don’t just look at her. Your mouth curves into this tiny smile whenever your eyes fall on her. I think you smile involuntarily whenever you spot her,” Ares stated. My chest tightened because I was scared that they might be true.Was I in denial?I wa
