May’s POVEmily followed me out to the dance floor, where two other couples were dancing already and she grabbed my hands, moving them as she moved herself. As the music started to sip into my body, I closed my eyes and let myself feel it.“This is what Im talking about, girl.” Emily yelled over the fast music, and when I opened my eyes, I could see the smile on her face.“I’m just trying,” I said in a reply, looking towards the VIP section to see Asher and the woman sitting there, but with Brent now sitting beside the woman, with his hand wrapped around her waist.Oh wow! Maybe the woman I had thought was his flavor of the night wasn’t his at all, but Brent. Perhaps, she was his girlfriend, because I knew Brent was decent and didn't really go from one woman to the other.Anyway, that wasn’t any of my business, plus I really didn’t think thinking about them would help me tonight. Before I turned my back to them, I saw Asher laughing at something the woman beside Brent said, and my hea

May’s POVConfused?Certainly, I was very confused, and all I’ve been able to think about all weekend and all day today, was Asher’s action at the club, beating that man so much he was bleeding, and would have gone to jail that night if he wasn’t who he was.Why? That was the question that kept coming to my mind all day.For one, he had dragged me, given me a divorce paper, and told me his opinion about my being without a job, and telling me I was a gold digger, why had he bothered with me then, why had he fought with that man because of what he had said, when he had said more than that. Why had he?..“May, are you all right?” I heard someone asked me and I jerked out of my thoughts to see Nora staring down at me from in front of my desk.Damn, I had been so invested in my thoughts I had forgotten I was at work. Nodding my head, I said. “Oh, yeah. Sure. I’m all right.”She gave me a look, then she asked. “Did you receive my email?”I started to nod, but then I stopped when I realized

May’s POV“Because you’re my wife, still, May. I haven’t signed the stupid papers, that’s why.”Those words weren’t at all what I expected Asher to utter at all. I knew him to be a cold man that shielded his emotions, but admitting that to me, it confused the heck out of me, adding to all the confusion I had been feeling with him since.I looked at Asher to see if I could read his thoughts, but I couldn’t do it, and that bugged me to the core. What was he thinking about right now? What was he thinking in his head as he sat there looking at me as well.I had to be very careful though, I told myself when the thought of what he had said to that guy at the bar the weekend before came to my mind. “Let me tell you something you don’t understand, you bastard. You see this woman here, she had only allowed you to touch her because she thought I was watching, and she was probably trying to make me feel jealous.”Maybe that was what this was about, and he was just trying to see what I would say,

Asher’s POVI stood at my office, staring sightlessly out the window as I thought about what Brent said to me. He was sitting right behind me in one of the chairs from across my desk, but right now, I didn’t want to face him.“You really shouldn't turn away from me, you know that right?” he said behind me and I almost grunted. What was he talking about? I didn’t turn away from him because of his words, I just turned to think about it.Or maybe that was what I did, but he shouldn’t blame me. He would have probably done the same thing if he was in my shoes.“I'll keep telling you this, May isn’t the woman you think she is. I'm sure you can already tell from the void she's left in you, except you don't want to admit it,” he said.“What void are you even talking about,” I asked, turning to look at him over my shoulder. I was looking at him as if he didn’t have an inkling of what he was spewing out of his mouth.Brent shook his head and gave me a look I caught before turning back to the wi

Asher’s POVI slammed my hand against my desk when I saw the newspaper my secretary brought in, and I wanted to ask her what made her think she could show it to me. But maybe she had done that because she didn’t know I was divorced.For some reason, the public hadn’t seemed to get hold of the news yet, and it wasn’t as if I sat my employees down and talked to them about my personal life.“This is crazy.” I whispered as I stared at the photo on the second page, as my secretary had brought it to me. It was a photo of May and Gary having lunch with a headline that read: WHY IS MR. CAMPBELL’S WIFE SEEN EATING WITH ANOTHER MAN? IS THERE TROUBLE IN THEIR PARADISE? OR IS SHE LOOKING TO BE IN A POLYANDRY?“I have to call the…”The door of my office dragged open and Brent walked in. “Have you seen the news?” he asked me as he held a copy of the newspaper I was holding in hand.Damn, of course he had seen it too, which meant that my father had most likely seen it as well, and shown my mother.
