CHAPTER SIXTY-SIX : THE REVELATION

last update 게시일: 2026-04-13 03:01:50

RAQUEL POV

I woke up in a white room, my head throbbing with a dull, persistent ache. Where was I? I looked around, disoriented. A small drawer beside the bed held a few basic provisions. The walls were pale, the light fluorescent and unforgiving.

Then yesterday's memories came flooding back. My hand flew to my stomach. I sighed in relief when I still felt my pregnancy bump beneath my fingers.

I tried to sit up. A sharp pain stabbed through my abdomen, forcing a cry from my lips. I collapsed

  • Untamed   CHAPTER SEVENTY-THREE: THE TRUTH COMES OUT

    FRANK POV "Man, pass me the ice cubes," Michael requested when we were seated on my couch after our heated fight. "I'm not your slave. If you want some, go grab it yourself." I huffed, my head still throbbing. "Your stupid ass wants to fight commando. Next time, think things through before you throw a punch." He laughed despite his swollen lip. "Crazy dude, don't act as if you couldn't feel my punch." I chuckled despite myself. "You punch like a girl. Come for proper training." He made a pitiful face, teasing me. "Then why do you need ice if it doesn't hurt?" I smirked. "It's just a formality. Nothing else." He shrugged, his cocky demeanor returning. "You are so messed up. I wonder what the ladies see in you." I shook my head in disbelief. "What's there not to like? I'm a dream come true, you know." He grinned. "Ah, Awurade, just go grab some ice. I'm tired of your god-complex ass." I waved him off. "I know you feel me." He disappeared into the kitchen and returned moments

  • Untamed   CHAPTER SEVENTY-TWO : THE CONFRONTATION

    FRANK POV I left Raquel's place in the evening after receiving a call from Michael that he was coming over to my apartment. I was still furious at him for breaking Laila's heart. I had accompanied her back to the airport, and she had cried the entire way. Nothing I did could cheer her up. The most infuriating part was Michael's callousness. He hadn't even called to check if she was okay. For fuck's sake, she was practically a stranger in this part of the world. And Laila had kept ranting about how Michael told her he was in love with Raquel. I was convinced it was just his cruel way of getting rid of her for good. There was no way it could be true. Raquel was pregnant with another man's child. The only thing that made me uneasy was Laila's intuition—she was certain Michael hadn't been bluffing. I intended to get the truth from Michael tonight. Laila and I had been texting constantly since she left. Her depression seemed to have lifted, and she was fully back into her modelin

  • Untamed   CHAPTER SEVENTY-ONE :THE VISIT

    FRANK POV I had been restless ever since I witnessed Raquel and Michael kissing. Beyond pissed off doesn't even begin to cover it. But I didn't have any right to react. She wasn't my woman. Yet I couldn't shake the feeling of betrayal and heartache. She had plainly rejected me when I made my move, using her marriage as an excuse. But here she was, locking lips with Michael. Could it be that the baby she was carrying was his? I shook my head in denial. That couldn't be right. Raquel wasn't the sort of person to do something like that. The kiss must have been a one-time thing. Probably Michael forced himself on her. I intended to find out the full story. I had been ringing her doorbell for about half a minute now, and she still hadn't answered. Just as I was about to ring again, the door swung open. "Oh, hey, Frank." She stepped aside to usher me in. "Sorry for the delay. I was trying to find something decent to wear." "No problem, dear." I stepped inside. "I'm much more concern

  • Untamed   CHAPTER SEVENTY :THE TRUTH REVEALED

    MICHAEL POV "How can that be?" The words came out weak, barely a whisper. My mother couldn't have done that. She loved my father. I saw it. I felt it. She was devoted to him despite everything. But the look on his face—the brokenness, the finality—told me he believed what he was saying. "I have been sterile since birth," he continued, his voice heavy. "I only found out a week before our argument." The room spun. I gripped the edge of the couch to steady myself. Sterile. The word echoed in my skull. Not his son. A bastard. "You're lying." My voice was hollow, desperate. "I wish I was." He took another long drink. "I went to the doctor for a routine checkup. They ran tests. When the results came back, they sat me down and explained that I could never father children. Ever." I thought of all the times he had looked at me with pride. All the times he called me his son. All the times I had taken his name for granted. "Did Mum know?" The question came out strangled. "I don't know

  • Untamed   CHAPTER SIXTY-NINE:THE STORM BEFORE

    MICHEAL POVThunder rumbled and lightning streaked across the sky as rain poured heavily. I immediately stood up from my bed and walked toward the window. I tried to wipe the glass with a duster, clearing the condensation, but no matter how much I cleaned, I couldn't see the compound.It was nearly nine PM, and my father was nowhere in sight. The fact that it was raining and I couldn't reach his phone only increased my anxiety.I knew he was a grown man who could handle himself. But discovering that your own son had been intimate with your wife—that was a blow no man could simply shake off.Even though I dreaded the confrontation that would come when he returned, I knew it was inevitable. I wanted to get it over with as soon as possible.I heaved a sigh of relief when his car headlights reflected against my window. He was back. And I knew I was about to face the consequences.I waited upstairs, listening. Minutes passed. No footsteps. No sound.I tiptoed downstairs to check on him. I

  • Untamed   CHAPTER SIXTY-EIGHT: THE GOODBYE

    MICHAEL POV When I arrived home, Laila was shoving clothes into her suitcase with aggressive, jerky movements. "What are you doing?" I asked, unsure how to react. "What does it look like? I'm leaving, Michael. For good." She didn't look up. "You just got out of the hospital. You should at least recover before you go." She stopped packing and turned to face me. Tears glistened in her eyes. "Is that all you have to say? I was expecting you to beg me to stay. I can see you can't wait to get rid of me. I should have known better." "Laila, don't do this. Don't make it seem like this is all my fault." I ran a hand through my hair in frustration. I hated seeing her cry. "How is it my fault, Michael? I tried everything to make this work, but you just wouldn't respond." "It's not about now. It's about then." I kept my voice calm. "You always chose your career over us. We never spent quality time together. It killed what we had. Now, all I feel for you is friendship. Nothing more." "We

  • Untamed   CHAPTER FIFTY-TWO: THE DECISION

    I sat on my bed, the small packet of abortion pills trembling in my hand. Was this the right path? Was I being selfish, ignoring the life growing inside me? My mind churned with confusion, each thought pulling me in a different direction. The nausea hit again, sudden and violent. I barely made it

  • Untamed   CHAPTER FIFTEEN : THE HEARTBREAK

    Sleep was a battlefield. I spent the night turning and twisting in the sheets, a simmering pot of anger and humiliation, while Kwame slept the deep, untroubled sleep of the utterly oblivious. He didn’t stir once. By the time a thin, gray light filtered through the curtains, I had only just fallen in

    Upstairs, I moved with a sense of deliberate purpose, determined to translate Nelly’s advice into reality. I needed to reclaim something--the spark, the intimacy, the feeling of being desired in my own home. The bedroom was my canvas. I lit a dozen scented candles, placing them on the dresser, the n

    I studied my reflection in the bathroom mirror, attempting to smooth the evidence of disarray from my appearance. I ran my fingers through my hair again and again, restoring some order, before drawing a steadying breath and returning to the celebration. “Raquel, are you okay?” Frank asked the momen
