"Bethany Woods!" Eros called. You couldn't hear his voice, but Dalia could read his lips. It was what he always called her. Bethany woods. It wasn't in a spiteful way. His eyes looked happy. Really happy."I brought dinner. I guessed you would be working overtime tonight, so I decided to help you." She was putting on sweaters and sweatpants. What a crazy combination! Even though it was good, Dalia still saw it as crazy. She wasn't a happy woman as she watched them. Doesn't she know Eros' dark sides? Does he really show this rainbow and sunshine to her and leave the parts that haunted his life behind? Or do they both pretend there is nothing but happiness in their lives?Dalia shook her head as she pressed the button for the first floor. The last thing she saw as the elevator closed was the two of them laughing hard at whatever she prepared. Dalia banged her head softly against the hard walls of the elevator. Eros hasn't tasted her food before. She has never had to work since she offic

Eros' POVBetty's food was just as I expected. Bland.With the way Dalia was staring at me, I knew she wouldn't let me go without tasting her food. Just what have I put myself into?I pulled the food basket closer to me. To be frank, I can't wait to taste the food. It smelled so nice. I gently removed the box and placed it on the table. Then I opened the cover, nodding when the aroma warmed my face.From the corner of my eye, I watched her glare at Betty. She wasn't looking at me. It was pasta and chicken. Simple dish. easy to prepare.I dipped my fork, rolling it gently. Just a bite, and the flavors burst into the different sections of my mouth. It's been a while since I've had homemade food like this. I turned to Dalia, speechless. Words couldn't describe what I felt."Do you like it?" She asked softly. Her facial expression was kind, unlike the harsh expressions I have been exposed to. Could this mean something?I grabbed the tissue inside the basket, wiping my mouth. "I am surpri

Dalia's POv Pff. She is just a friend? The replies were almost immediate and they were all about defending Betty. They said she looked less pathetic than me. Pictures of Betty were reposted. There was where she held a puppy named princess. I frowned, remembering the time Eros said he had a dog named princess. The memory at the hotel brought a smile to my face. How could he call a princess, princess? The laughter escaped my lips no matter how I tried to suppress it. "I was the one who won the fight for Eros!" I yelled to the air. Regret filled me as soon as those words left my lips. I won him as a prize but it was as if I lost. I lost a big fight. I don't even feel like a winner. My eyes caught the letter of today. I couldn't open it because of how offended I was with Eros. Why would he send me a letter when he knows he wouldn't eat my food? It was better he didn't eat it than eating it only to tell me it was okay. The thought of it made me fee

Dalia's POVShe was always right.My dear Emily.Why is she friends with someone as daft as me? She told me to confront Eros about Betty because she was biting more than she could chew. I have decided to take the bull by the horn today.I need to hear from his mouth whether he loves her or not. If he says he loves her, I will move out of the way, give birth to my baby, and divorce him. The baby won't have to live his life thinking he was born out of wedlock. When it comes to custody of the child, I won't allow him to get away with his misdeeds.The drive home was quiet as usual as I mused over the things Emily told me that afternoon. She expressed her anger for Betty and wished she met the bitch one more time. Her words, not mine.I entered the house to see Eros in aprons. He greeted me with a small smile, which made me confused. He has never smiled like this at me. The last time I saw him smile, only in a bigger version, was with Betty! My mood was already sour and damp."Your food m

Dalia paced the room up and down. She was restless and could not place her butt somewhere. "Pick up, Emily!" She gritted out. How did it happen? Nick only grabbed her because she was about to leave! They were not doing anything like whosoever that took the picture was suggesting!Emily picked up at the third ring. "What the hell? Dalia!""Emily! What should I do? I know everyone has seen the picture. I don't think Eros should see it.""Eros should never see it. Go and see for yourself and make sure he doesn't have his phone around him."Dalia nodded, opening her door. She was down the stairs in a flash. "What should I do if he has already seen the picture?""I don't know. You love him, I don't." Emily's downcast voice dampened Dalia's spirit.Dalia could imagine her friend shrugging in helplessness. "I swear, it was a mistake!" She was still explaining to her dearest friend when she saw Eros with his phone. He wasn't looking at it but beyond it. He was looking at her. He knew about th
