The Taste Of Goodbye

Chapter One – The Taste of Goodbye (Alina Pov The stew was almost done. I stood by the stove, gently stirring the pot, letting the aroma of garlic, pepper, and thyme fill the air. I knew exactly how he liked it—soft beef, no oil floating, a bit spicy but not too much. “Madam, should I serve the table?” the maid asked, peeking from the doorway. I shook my head without turning. “No. I’ll do it myself.” She left quietly. She knew not to argue. I always cooked for him myself, even if we had ten maids. Maybe I thought it would keep him home. Maybe I believed food could hold a heart. But hearts don’t stay because of food. I heard the gate open. His car drove in, slow and calm, like nothing was wrong in the world. A few minutes later, I heard the door unlock. He walked in. Strong cologne filled the room before I even saw him. “Welcome,” I said softly, wiping my hands on a kitchen towel. He nodded without looking at me. “Yeah.” He dropped his suitcase on the couch, loosened his t

The Last Glass

Chapter Two – The Last Glass Alina POV I didn’t sleep all night. I just laid on the bed, staring at the ceiling, feeling the silence in the room press down on me like a heavy blanket. He was sleeping beside me, snoring softly, like nothing had happened. Like he didn’t break me just hours ago. I turned my face away and let the tears fall on the pillow. Again. Another woman. Another lie. Another night of pretending like everything was fine. My hands were shaking, but I placed them over my stomach, trying to calm myself. “Marriage is for better or worse,” I whispered into the dark. “For richer or poorer… in sickness and in health…” I had made vows. I told myself I wasn’t a quitter. That women stayed and fought. That love could still win, even when it was bleeding. He’s just confused, I thought. He’s just going through something… maybe if I remind him who I am—remind him I’m not just a woman in the kitchen—maybe he’ll see me again. Maybe he’d remember the woman he married. The

I Didn’t Know Where Else To Go

CHAPTER THREE – I Didn’t Know Where Else To Go Alina’s POV The rain started slowly. Just a few drops. Then more. And more. Until the whole sky opened and poured down like it was trying to wash the whole world clean. But it didn’t wash me clean. I was still dirty with pain. Still heavy with shame. I walked and walked, not knowing where I was going. I didn’t take a phone. I didn’t take a bag. Just the same clothes I wore when I left the house. When I left him. My hair was wet and sticking to my face. My slippers were soaked and making that annoying slap sound on the road. I didn’t care. I kept walking. Each step hurt. Not because my legs were tired… but because I was empty inside. I didn’t know what I was walking towards. I just knew I was done walking back.**** People passed by in their cars. Some stared. But no one stopped. Why would they? I was just a sad-looking woman in the rain. Wives don’t run from rich husbands. Not in their wor

With A Cold, Harsh Stranger

Chapter Four ; With A Cold, Harsh Stranger Alina’s POV The first thing I felt was the cold air brushing my bare skin. My eyes flew open. My heart pounded so loud it echoed in my ears. I was lying on a bed. A strange bed. White sheets. A soft pillow under my head. And I wasn’t wearing my clothes. “No… No, no, no,” I gasped, sitting up quickly. The blanket slipped off, and I realized I was in nothing but my underwear and a man’s shirt—unbuttoned. My body felt sore, weak, and my head was spinning. “This can’t be happening,” I whispered. My voice trembled. “I’m a married woman… I can’t— I didn’t—” I held my head, trying to breathe, but I was panicking. Everything was blurry in my memory. But flashes came back. The rain. The umbrella. The quiet voice. The hotel room. I looked around wildly, hoping it was all a dream. That was when I saw him. The man. He was standing by the window, fully dressed now. One hand in his pocket, the other holding his phone. He wasn’

The Last Person I Expected

Chapter Five: The Last Person I Expected Alina’s POV It had been two days since I left that hotel room. Since I left him. I didn’t look back. I didn’t try to find him. I didn’t even take more than what I needed from that black card he threw on the table. All I wanted was to be invisible again. But life had other plans. That night, as I sat alone on the small bed of the cheap guesthouse I’d found, I saw an ad online. “Hiring Administrative Assistant — No Experience Needed — Interview in Two Days.” The name of the company caught my eye: LUXE Estate & Interior Designs. It sounded classy. Big. Maybe even out of my league. But I clicked apply anyway. I had nothing to lose. Now, here I was… standing in front of a tall glass building, my palms sweating “LUXE ESTATE AND INTERIORS,” the sign read in silver letters that reflected the sun. The place looked expensive, even from outside. People in sharp suits walked past me without a glance. Cars I had only seen in maga

Panic

Chapter Six –PanicI was driving home, hands tight on the steering wheel.Alina. The thought wouldn’t leave me.Why did she have to show up at my company like that? After one night. After everything. Did she think my company was… a place for women like her?I shook my head. No. I couldn’t think about that now. I needed to deal with her later. Later, Not even know pThe rain began to fall. Slow at first. Then harder. A dull rhythm on the roof of the car.I pressed the accelerator a little more. My thoughts were heavy. Her face flashed in my mind. That night. Her eyes. That look she gave me when she left. She’s actually a whore that shouldn’t stay in my company, whatever shes there for, later or sooner, I’ll make sure to send her away. A scream cut through the rain. Sharp and terrible.Metal screeched. Tires skidded and just then, heart froze.I slammed on the brakes. My stomach dropped.A figure… lying on the road.No. No, it can’t be.I jumped out, splashing through puddles. Rain soa

Fear

Chapter Seven – Fury and FearLucien’s POVI stayed by her side, my hands carefully pressing, helping her ease the pain in her shoulders and back. She was trembling, pale, and broken, but alive. That was all that mattered.Then her eyes slowly opened.“Lucien…” she whispered, voice hoarse. Her gaze was weak, uncertain.“Shh… don’t move,” I said, gripping her hand tighter. Relief mixed with rage coursed through me. “You’re safe now. Don’t try to get up too fast.”I helped her sit up, gently guiding her onto the chair. Her legs shook, but I stayed close, ready to catch her if she fell. I fed her a few sips of water. She coughed softly, then looked up at me. Fear. Pain. Confusion.And then the door opened.Time froze.He stepped in, my blood ran cold.“Uncle Lucien! What are you doing with this… this bitch?”The words hit the room like a hammer. So he, he’s his husband? I never knew he was the one I called with the nurse phone the other day. My chest tightened, my fists curled. I turne

Care And Insistence

Chapter Eight – Care and InsistenceThe doctor finally stepped out, giving me a nod. “She’s stable now. You can take her home, but she needs rest. Make sure she doesn’t strain herself.”I looked at Alina. She was sitting up on the hospital bed, still weak, still pale, but trying to compose herself. Her hair was messy, her clothes wrinkled, and her eyes… those eyes were tired, yet alert.I stepped closer. “Are you okay to walk?” I asked softly.She hesitated, glancing down at her legs. “I… I think so,” she murmured.I shook my head. “Don’t think. Lean on me. I won’t let you fall.”Her lips pressed together. I could see her trying to be independent, trying to act like she didn’t need help. But I saw right through it. She was too weak. I couldn’t leave her alone, not now.We slowly moved toward the hospital exit. Every step she took, I supported her, my arm around her waist. Her hand clung to my arm, her fingers tight, like she was afraid to let go. I didn’t mind. I wanted her to hold on

Unwelcome Guests

Chapter Nine – Unwelcome GuestsAlina’s Pov I had finally settled into the room Lucien had prepared for me. My body still ached, my head felt light, and every movement reminded me how fragile I really was. I sat on the edge of the soft bed, trying to collect my thoughts. The house was huge. Bigger than anything I had ever seen. It made me feel small. Invisible.“Boss… I’ll soon be ready to resume work,” I whispered, my voice weak.Lucien’s eyes softened for a moment, and he shook his head. “No. Right now, you focus on recovering, Alina. That’s your job. Everything else… we’ll talk later.”I wanted to argue, to tell him I could handle it, that I wasn’t useless… but I knew he was right. My body was weak, and I couldn’t risk pushing myself.He nodded to the maid, who had quietly placed a tray of food by the bed. Lucien got up. “I’ll bring this to the kitchen first. Eat slowly, okay?”I nodded, and he left the room. For the first time in days, I thought I might finally have a moment of p

Quiet After The Storm

Chapter Ten - Quiet After the StormI couldn’t stop crying.Even after they left, my tears kept falling, rolling down my face like the rain outside. My chest hurt, my throat burned, but the sobs would not stop. My body shook on the soft couch, but no comfort came.Everything they said still echoed in my ears. Worthless. Nothing. Just a woman who stays at home.Why did it hurt so much when I had already heard those words so many times before?But this time, it was worse. Because he… Lucien… heard it too.I buried my face in my hands, wishing the ground would just open and swallow me. I didn’t want him to see me like this. Weak. Broken. Humiliated.“Alina…” His voice was soft. Not like before when he was sharp, strict, or cold. This time it was low, rough, like it carried my pain too.I didn’t look up. I didn’t want to. But then I felt his hand on my shoulder. Warm. Steady. Gentle.“I’m sorry,” he whispered. “I never knew they would come. I never wanted you to face that again.”My heart
