I found myself unconsciously staring at the calendar and counting down to the time I was going to be with Alex. The week seemed to run so slowly that a tortoise would win a race with it. It was as if the universe knew that I was anticipating something and wanted to frustrate me.“What wrong?” Jeremy asked as he entered my office. “You have been on edge since this week; is it because of Alex?”“No.” I said it in a rush, and from the face he made, I knew he wasn’t believing me.“Yeap, it is totally about Alex; that man has you in a tight grip.”A smile threatened to show on my face, but I tried my best not to allow it. “So, how did it go?”Jeremy's smile instantly dissolved as he began to talk about the work's progress. That was one thing I liked about him—his ability to switch things up without stress.For the next hour, Jeremy and I poured our hearts into the new project we were undertaking. We were yet to get approval from the government, as they claimed that the property belonged to

“Why do you want a divorce?” Alex had the guts to ask, and I was looking at him like it was the most ridiculous thing I had ever heard.“Do you seriously not know why?” I said in a calm voice. I was surprised that I could be calm, seeing how hard I was trying to contain my anger. I closed my eyes and took a breath, trying to calm myself down.“No, I have no idea why.” He shook his head. “I just came back from the office one day, and I discovered you were gone, along with everything you own. I tried to reach out to you, but every method I tried proved abortive.”I almost facepalmed; the answer was just at his tips. “Do you not think something must have prompted me to leave?”“I don’t know; I have been thinking of it, but I couldn’t find any answer. I made sure to treat you well and shower you with love and care, but after a year with no sign of you, I decided to let go.”“Geez, you are so... Arrgghh." I groaned, getting even more agitated. But it was hard to stay angry with him when he

Alex collapsed on me, his body jerking as he poured his seed in me until he had completely emptied everything in me. His breath was coming out in short pants, evidence that he was totally drained, and I couldn’t blame him. The round had been so intense that my voice had become hoarse from screaming.“Are you okay?” Alex peeped down at me, his eyes doing a number on me that if I had not fallen for him, I would have done so. He looked at me with such tenderness that it almost made me weep.I didn’t reply to him; instead, I stood on a tippy toe and hooked my hands around his shoulder, reaching for a kiss.My eyes fluttered shut as I kissed him, loving the way he tasted in my mouth. I wish this moment could go on forever, but I would be delusional to think so. However, I was going to cease this opportunity to hold him close, probably for the last time.The kiss was longer than initially planned as Alex took over, deepening the kiss, and when we finally parted ways, our mouths were slightl

I released a deep breath as Jeremy went out the door. Would I be wicked if I said I was happy he did?Well, I wasn’t going to let that bother me.My house. My choice.I shut the door and dragged my weary body to the bedroom, dumping myself on the bed like a sack of potatoes, a rather sad and weary one.I was suffering from homesickness, and the only person that could cure it was Alex, but that was impossible since he was miles away from me.I released another sigh, turning in my bed to find the right position, suddenly grateful it was the weekend. I will need to get my A game before tomorrow.It was in that position that I drifted into sleep, and it was no surprise when Alex appeared in my dream, riding a horse with a chariot following him and promising to take me to the ends of the earth.The man has managed to invade my thoughts and now my dream.When I woke up, I had a hearty laugh as I remembered it, but I was again reminded of the fact that we may never be together, and the tears

Alex shifted forward, his face blank, as if every atom of emotion had left him. “You wanted a divorce, and I don’t want to deny you that.”“I know!” It was taking everything in me not to scream.“I know I wanted a divorce, but why now?”“You just heard me, Ruby. I am sure you are not hard of hearing, or you will need to get your ear checked. I know a doctor that specializes in ENT, and he will be willing to help.”I rolled my eyes as I heard him, not finding anything funny. “Are you even listening to me?”"Yes, I am, and I heard what you said. I have already told you the reason I am doing this, and I am not going to repeat myself.”I released a sigh, suddenly tired from everything. "Alright, that is fine. If this is what you want, I will pass it on to my lawyer, and we will set a date for trial. Is that alright?”“Don’t try to pass this on to me, Ruby. This was what you wanted. But yes, I think so.”"Ummm, Alex, are you sure about this?” I said, trying my hardest to convince him before
