All Chapters of Condemned Wife's Compliance: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

The bed dipped, and Adrea felt a sense of joy wash over her drowsy form. He was here. A part of her wanted to sit up and acknowledge his presence, but she was mostly asleep. She heard and felt him moving about as sleep took her under. She was aroused a little when he lifted the covers, and the cold air went in and brushed her bare skin. She shivered as he slowly got under the covers. Sleep crept onto her again, but he kept it at bay by shifting his body close to hers and laying his arms around her. Instinctively, Adrea rolled over and snuggled him.She felt him breath on her neck before he began to butterfly kissed on it. She let out a breath but kept her eyes closed and held him close. That was when she first registered something was wrong. Something was very wrong. Something was different. He felt wrong. The texture of his skin, the contours of his body.Even as she registered that the clothes were wrong, and so was his scent, the light was clicking on. But it was too late. She shie

Adrea stayed in bed most of the day. Her mind was a fog, filled with an unending mist of questions that had no clear answers. What was going to happen now? What was she going to do?

But he had not reached out to her to check if she was okay.When she thought about it, he had taken great pleasure in making his mother call her to scold her for b

The world tilted on its axis. She could hear her heart beating like an angry drum. There was a pitched ringing in her ears. Each breath she took was more painful than the last, like an elderly whale was sitting on her chest. She looked at her husband through a blurry film.“What?” Her voice was just above a whisper.Surely, she’d heard him wrong.“There is no way on this earth I will ever touch you again,” Rafael told her frankly. “So, one way or the other, we go our own ways.”He watched Adrea open her mouth and close it. She was pale, deathly pale. Her eyes were crammed with pain and unshed tears. He felt a rousing of sympathy within him. Images of her in bed with his brother extinguished that emotion and replaced it with something else... anger and pain. He could never forget the sight of her brother kissing her neck and her holding him close.He was not blind to her pain. He was hurting too. All because of her. Because of what she did. Her selfish desires were what drove them here
