Chapter 21

“Mind if I join you?” Alex asked, even though he was already entering the bathroom. He had removed the towel he had wrapped around his waist even before I could give him an answer.“Sure.” I replied, although there was no need as he was already inside. My eyes darted about the bathroom in a bid to avoid his eyes, but I could feel his gaze on me, barking holes into my skin, and I shivered.“Move over, so we can share.”“Okay.” I moved out of the shower and stood close to the wall of the bathroom, suddenly interested in scrubbing my skin, ignoring the other occupant of the bathroom.I didn’t know when Alex pressed a button and the water sprayed on me like raindrops. “Ouu.” I shrieked in excitement as the hot drops landed on my body. “I never knew it could do this.”“Oh, it could do a lot more than this. It could make you hot; it can also make you cold and clean you from the inside out.”I stared at Alex, giving him side eyes. “Are we still talking about the damn shower head?“I don’t kn

Chapter 22

We laid on the bed, my head to his chest, stroking the scanty hair in his midsection. Thank fuck, he wasn’t the hairy type.I disliked guys who had a lot of body hair. I mean, they always bitched about females having smooth and hairless bodies; at least it should apply to them at some point.“Ahhh.” A sigh of relief left me as Alex ran his hands in my hair, stroking it. We were lounging on the bed, trying to catch our breath, and too tired to do anything. Alex had fucked the strength in me, and my limbs were like jelly.“Yea. I just remembered something.” I said, angling my head so I could see him better. “Why were you ignoring my calls throughout the times you were away? You didn’t even bother to return my text or even try to call me. Honestly, I was really mad at you and promised to give you the silence treatment.”“I am sorry, love.” Alex whispered in my hair, and I heard a kissing sound as he kissed the middle of my head. “I had no access to my phone for about a day after I landed

Chapter 23

It was as if everything seemed to stop as we entered the club. We had arrived a little late, only because I was trying to find the perfect outfit, and on our arrival, every head turned to look at us.It reminded me so much of the days when I was still pulling my clothes to entertain people that their gazes were robbing and breaking down my self-defense, and I was shrinking into myself.I felt the comforting presence of Alex squeezing my head as if to reassure me, and I swallowed the ball of saliva that had pooled in my mouth.“It is a new club, and there is no one from this area that recognizes you.” I whispered below my breath, trying to reassure myself, and with the firm touch of Alex, I began to relax, and I raised my gaze, staring at the crowd.So far, so good. I couldn’t see anyone that I would know, and once my initial fear had gone, I could tell that it was going to be fun.A slender man with a beer belly came towards us. I don’t know how possible it was to be slender and have

Chapter 24

Time seemed to have stopped as I heard that name; it was like everything had ceased to exist, and it was just me and the strange man. I froze, my senses becoming clearer as the alcohol seemed to have evaporated from my body.I moved closer to Alex, who was still waltzing drunkenly to the music, unsuspecting. I shook my head and ignored the man, choosing to focus on Alex and hoping the man was just speaking gibberish.But there was no way he was speaking gibberish. The name was common to a particular occupation, and only people from my past knew me by that name.“Nixie?” He was about to tap my arms, but Alex grabbed his hands before he could do so, squeezing them tight.“What is going on here?”“I think he is just drunk.” I said to Alex, and to the man, I replied. “I am sorry; I don’t know who Nixie is. I may have to report to the authorities if you continue to harass me.”Alex maneuvered me to his back and stood in front of me, puffing his chest out in an alpha male contest, and if it

Chapter 25

“What?” My voice came out louder and higher than I intended it to be. I stared at Alex with wide eyes, my mouth hanging low, as I tried to process what I had just heard.As if this day could get any worse.Not only did I meet someone from my past, but it turns out that Alex may have been part of the said past.“When? how? Where? When??” I was like a leaking faucet, muttering every word I knew.“Calm down.” Alex had the guts to say and even dared to laugh. There was nothing that was funny about this.“Just answer the questions!” I burst out, my anger taking the better part of me.“I would suggest you watch your tone and remember who you are talking to. If you could recall, you are the one in the wrong.” Alex warned me in a deadly voice that was making me sit up straight.“I am sorry for letting my emotions get the better part of me.” I said in a small voice, bowing my head to make me appear smaller.“Hmm.” Alex hummed under his breath. “Now back to what I was saying. I can’t really rem

Chapter 26

“What the fuck just happened?" I was still standing there, dumbfounded, as I tried to make sense of what had just happened.Did Alex actually ignore me?After everything that took place between us the night before, I mean, we have been getting along and having fun, dancing, and grinding together.I understood there was a small setback, but it had been resolved, and we had even discussed the path I wanted to take.I thought we were getting along, so what was the attitude?“He must be tired from work.” I tried to be reasonable. The past week has been stressful enough since the whole fire incident, so I guess it was still weighing down on his mind.And as a good and supportive wife, it was my duty to cheer him up if I noticed he was down.And that was what I was going to do.I went to the kitchen and pulled out the food, serving a hearty portion in his favorite china. Even inhaling the food was making my mouth water, and I picked up a spoon, dipping it into the creamy bacon mushroom thym

Chapter 27

“What are you doing?” Alex barked behind me, and I almost jumped out of my skin as a shiver ran through me, and it was not the good kind.“Alex!” I yelled, my voice coming out high-pitched due to shock. I tried to gather the documents back into the envelope, but my hands were unsteady and shaky, which only made the job difficult.“You haven’t answered the question, Ruby; what are you doing here?” He asked again, eyeing the content that had spilled on the floor.“Yea.” A nervous laugh escaped from me, trying to mask the fear I was feeling. “Would you believe that I stumbled and fell on the stairs, and somehow I managed to find myself here?” I said, plastering a smile on my face, but Alex's stern face was enough to tell me that he wasn’t believing whatever I was saying.His gaze swept through the floor again until it landed on the document on the floor.“What happened here?” He asked, lowering his tall frame to the floor to pick it up. I used the opportunity to push the remaining documen

“Can we go in now?” Alex said in my ears.“Hmmm.” I murmured, giving what he had said some thought.While I had forgiven him for how he treated me the day before, that didn’t mean I was going to be quick to forget all I had seen today.But I threw that in the back of my mind and allowed him to lead me to his room.We laid on the soft mattress, the familiar scent enveloping me as soon as I laid on it, and I sighed in bliss. It was like receiving a warm hug after a long day.I laid my head on Alex's chest, and we stayed still, listening to the noise of the cricket while we waited for sleep to come.“Alex.” I suddenly called out.“Hmm?” He murmured in my hair. I almost forgot what I wanted to say as he began to stroke my hair.I had to ask him the question that had been lingering in my mind, but I didn’t know how to approach it. I knew that if I left it to be, it was going to continue nagging my mind until I gave up and asked, so it was better to get it done.“Why do you have so many pic

Chapter 29

I couldn’t keep calm throughout the day, not when I was going to Paris. Like it is Paris! A place I had often dreamed of and even watched. I mean, there is literally a movie called Emily in Paris.I don’t care how bad it may have gotten; I was still going to Paris, and I was going to gloat about it every opportunity I got.Only if I had a friend to brag to.I reached for my phone, thinking to call Cassy, Alex’s cousin, but we haven’t talked since after the wedding, so it would be rude just to call her to gloat.That is, if she hasn’t forgotten about me.I decided to keep the joy inside of me; instead, I went about my day, hopping from place to place. The excitement was so great that I couldn’t handle it. I wanted to scream to the whole world to tell them that I was going to Paris, but I am sure my neighbors wouldn’t like that, so I contended with humming under my breath.I made for our shared bedroom, flopping down on it with a sigh. I picked up my phone as a sudden urge to go shoppin

Chapter 30

“Room service.” A voice from outside called, and I recognized it as the man who had shown us to our room early.I groaned, angry that he had disrupted what was about to turn into a make-out session between Alex and me. We were standing facing each other, our lips so close to each other that if I just leaned a little bit, they would be touching.His eyes were focused on me, or rather, my lips and tongue darted out to lick it. I watched as his Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed, and I looked up to meet his eyes.His eyes were a stormy blue, the color of the cloud when it was almost raining, and it was the most beautiful thing I have seen.His arms snaked around my waist, and he pulled me in closer. But I brought my hands up, preventing our chests from touching. “Alex, there is..."“Shhh.” He silenced me, placing a finger on my lips. “Room service can wait, but this can’t. I have been dreaming of entering inside you ever since you were on the plane.”“B-but t-the…” I tried to gesture tow
