Semua Bab HIS SECRET WIFE: Bab 21 - Bab 30

STORMA devil. A sly wicked devil. My eyes narrowed at Amar who drove us home. Our eyes met at the review mirror and he quickly looked away. I could see that smirk on his face, he found this funny. The cars were all filled with groceries, be sure my wife bought everything the store could offer. And the world would have to drown in hell before I ate anything Brandy cooked. I was sure her only experience in the kitchen was washing dishes. There was no way she was cooking anything I would eat. My head snapped to find her head having fallen on my shoulder. In her hand she clenched the fast food paper bags. I shook my head, not even sure how I felt. I should have been fuming. She made me late then pulled me from negotiating a very important deal for the Gambino cartel. That woman. She could just walk in the mist of deadly men and drag me out. I doubt she knew who I stood with, I doubt she even cared. I threw my arm around her shoulders to steady her. She turned, snuggling into my s

Three days and I still couldn’t get the conversation out of my head. He didn’t need to call, why did he? It was not as if we were really a couple. My heart couldn’t handle such things. My head was way fast, already creating a whole fantasy world and fooling my heart. I hadn’t heard from Storm since he called to let me know he was leaving and I hadn’t been to the house with all the work I had. Somehow I could day dream and work at the same time. I had too much to prove and too much to lose if I failed at this. Something big was waiting for me and I wouldn’t disappoint. An email alert drew my attention from the meeting I was in. I clicked on it while Ben blabbed away on the tiny display. “Mhh..” I nervously clicked on it, eyebrows furrowed. Somehow I couldn’t believe it, so I maximized it on the screen. Dear Miss Madroi,Twenty- three colleagues have reported their inability to do their work. This has been brought by the uneasiness in their work environment brought by behavior

BRANDYMy hand kept patting. I rolled over, pulling a pillow to my face and drifted back to sleep. Friday. My day to sleep. I woke up at ten, alone in bed. Somehow I was well rested. A smile lay on my face. I slid out of bed, not failing to notice that I had been clinging to Storm’s pillow. If he saw me, I would never hear the end of it. I made the bed, tidied the room then got into the shower. My body froze, the water pouring on me. Something was lying heavy on my neck. My hand rose

“Good morning.” I walked past Damon and slid into my seat, turning to smile at him. My body froze with him pulling my seat belt suddenly to clip it. His chest brushed against mine and even the air froze. My hands folded as I stared shocked. “ Good morning.” He said back with the brightest smile I had ever seen on him. His face was just past mine and he froze for a split second right before my face before fully pulling away. My head snapped as he slammed the door and walked around the car. I was out of it for a few seconds. “ Do you still remember what you learned yesterday?” 

BRANDY’S P.O.V. Storm: I am on my way, I hope you are dressed. A chuckle escaped, throwing the phone on the chair. I hoped I would be dressed too but it was a work in progress. I gave up wanting to be the best dressed or fashionable at all. I just wanted to look decent, to look good and feel good for once. If only it was that easy. Jeans were a no, they showed my stomach. Skirts and dresses made me look old. People would probably think I was his mother. Leggings were a no go for a fashion show. I threw one clothing after another until I huffed. The time was five and I had been in the closet for two hours. A glass of wine sat next to me, half full. If only the girls could have been there with me, I had confidence in their abilities.The door opened and my heart drummed even harder. I wanted to hide because I knew hell would break loose when Storm walked in to me still in a robe. The closet doors opened and I couldn’t help but turn to him with the sweetest smile I could gathe
