Stranger In My Husband's Body

Ruth’s POV When did I fall asleep? I can't quite remember, I glanced at the wall clock in the room, it was past eleven PM. I looked around me hoping to find my cold and indifferent husband but what was I thinking? That he'll just show up out of the blue after disappearing for weeks.I pushed the duvet off my body and dragged myself downstairs to get myself a glass of water. I heard the front door opening wondering who it was by this time of the night. I picked up a knife for protection and went to take a look. It was my husband, the same man who had left me without any word."Adrian." I called out softly, dropping the knife on a nearby side stool.He looked at me with an intensity in his eyes that made something in me burn, what is wrong with my cold and aloof husband?"Are you okay?"

Living a double life

6 weeks ago Ruth's POV "It's Adrian Delacroix, the only child of the late Mr and Mrs Delacroix. Today he came with his stunning wife Ruth Delacroix. They are so perfect for each other, a match made in heaven truly." A reporter commented.Adrian and I are attending a red carpet event, of course we had to act like the perfect couple for public image because that's all what I am for in the eyes of my husband. He needed my beauty and perfect body for his image and I needed the life his money had to offer.

Jealous of the wrong couple

Present Day Ruth's POV I woke up feeling sore and tired and I wasn't complaining. I heard the bathroom door open, Adrian stepped out fully dressed, when he looked at me something had changed or rather things had fallen back to place.The coldness in his gaze had returned, he was back to staring at me coldly. "Adrian I-"He walked out on me, I sat confused wondering what was happening. I thought my life was finally changing for the better, I thought Adrian was about to start being a good husband to me, I guess I was wrong.I laid back down and wrapped myself in the duvet, I couldn't fight the tears that fell freely.
