I wasted no time getting out of my car when I got home. I practically ran into the house, shamelessly. It was already past 11pm, and I wondered if Aaron was still waiting or if he had gone to bed after waiting for me for a while.

My heart sank when I found the sitting room empty. He wasn’t there.

Had he been here for a while and angrily gone back to his room? Or what if he wasn’t home?

I couldn’t hide the disappointment I felt as I paced around the sitting room looking at the stairs like he would magically appear there.

The former me would have just gone to my room to sleep and probably wallow in agony alone, but this me was different. I was bold, desperate, and forward.

And so I climbed the stairs and instead of heading to my usual west wing, I headed for the east wing. For the first time.

My palms were already sweaty by the time I got to his door. I paused for a while, eyes closed, taking short deep breaths.

Then I knocked. And waited. No answer.

I knocked again, harder this time, I

    ELIZABETH’S POVThe interior designer and I discussed what I wanted for my room, and she got to work immediately. I was so excited and touched that Aaron had taken into consideration my complaint about the room and immediately sent a designer to correct it.It made my heart flutter, he wasn't so bad anyway, and it made me like him even more.I had to temporarily move to another room while the designer worked on mine, I toyed with the idea of sleeping in Aaron’s room since he wasn't here but I killed the idea real quick. Let's not push boundaries.So I took another room.I stared at his number saved to my phone as “Husband Jerk” and wondered if I could call, or text… to thank him and maybe also check up on him. Was I even allowed to do that? I didn't want to come off desperate or eager for his attention.“If I just send a thank you text, it wouldn't be that bad would it?” I asked out loud to myself.“I mean I should say thank you. Or should I just wait for him to get back? He's getting

  • The Stranger I Met On The Altar   About Vivienne

    VIVIENNE’S POVIf Aaron thought he could easily toss me aside, he was in for something else!I flung my phone across the room angrily.“Fuck!” I cursed. I dialled Aaron’s number sixty-seven times, but it kept redirecting to voicemail. My texts were not responded to either.He had changed, I could tell. He didn't treat me badly, and still provided all my needs but he barely gave me any attention anymore.He was still as generous as ever, for example, I'm currently in Mauritius and I've been shopping heavily with his credit card.Aaron and I were doing good, but everything started going wrong when his father suddenly called one day and requested to see me.Now I knew his parents never liked me, it was evident, but I didn't give a fuck honestly, I didn't need them.During my meeting with his father that day, he had wasted no time in reminding me that i was no match for his son and that i was nothing but an opportunist and a gold digger, and when i tried to challenge him, he spilled wine

    “What did you have in mind when you suggested this?” I asked, still annoyed.“You choose”I scoffed. “You are so annoying,” I said, taking deep breaths to calm down so the next thing I say would be calm. “I wanted to talk, laugh, and maybe even drink a little. The way Ryan and I used to, it's been so boring in the house since he and Taylor left and when you suggested this, I got too excited. I forgot for a moment that you are who you are,” I said then ended it with a hiss.“And that is?”“Huh?”“Who do you think I am?”“A grumpy arrogant bore” I replied sharply.He nodded. “Teach me”“What?”“Teach me to be the way you want and how to do the things you want to do,” he said very calmly and seriously.My eyes flickered in surprise. “Really?”He stated plainly at me, the stare that was usually his way of affirmation.“Do you know how to keep up with a conversation?”“I try,” he drawled lazily.“Then let's talk”“Why did you and Noah break up? And most importantly, why is he still in you

  • The Stranger I Met On The Altar   Aaron or Noah?

    Days passed, and with Ryan and Taylor gone, I felt like I had returned to my old routine. The house was awfully cold, quiet, and boring. I missed them, Ryan and Taylor.I didn't see Aaron at all as he had either left early before I woke up, or late after I had retired to bed.I was bored out of my mind and Noah’s sleepover invitation was fast becoming tempting. I mean, I trusted Noah, he was a gentleman and regardless of his feelings for me, he really wouldn't force me to do what I didn't want to do.And when I hit him up to let him know I was taking up his offer, his excitement was through the roof.I didn't do much with my dressing, just something casual. Noah wasn't picking me up today, I was driving to his.As I walked downstairs, my eyes caught sight of Aaron, casually lounging on the couch. He turned to me almost immediately. And he smiled at me.My heart skipped a beat.“You’re finally down here,” he said cheerfully as I walked down.My brows were furrowed. “Uhm… yeah, didn't k

    Chapter 59ELIZABETH’S POV“What do you think about spending a night at mine?” Noah asked.I raised a shocked eyebrow at him.“No no,” he said with his hands raised. “I mean no harm. Nothing will happen, except of course you want it to” he said with a wink.I rolled my eyes. “Yeah Noah, not happening”“I mean it—just as old friends. Nothing much, we could watch a movie like old times, joke, laugh. You will sleep in a different bedroom. And I promise not to act the way I acted last time, you know the kiss and all. You are a married woman and I respect that”“Finally decided to back off?”“Not a chance babe, I'm not backing off. I'm just giving you time” he said with a broad smile.I scoffed as I opened the car door and got down. “I will think about it,” I said as he would down the glass. I leaned a little. “Thank you for today Noah. It was amazing. As usual” I said, blew him a kiss, and went inside.As I walked in, my heart beat faster and I wondered if I would see Aaron in the sittin
