All Chapters of HIS MISTAKE, HER REVENGE.: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

~ DANIELLE ~ Terminal illness? A baby? Those weren’t just words anymore but had transitioned into another part of my painful reality. The news was too much to grasp. I had no idea how to even handle or process anything. I’d left the house while racking my brain for a place to stay. And now? I’d been forced to think about something more than just a roof over my head. “Mrs. Harrington?” Dr. Darcy called in concern from the other end, but I’d emotionally and mentally dissociated from the call. The phone slammed against the taxi’s floorboards, a resounding echo to the collapse brewing inside of me. My hands instinctively flew to my stomach, pressing against the life growing in there—a life I might not be there to nurture. I was going to die in a few years. What was the point of bringing a baby into the world? I’d badly wanted to experience motherhood. But when that doctor informed me about the impossibility of ever getting pregnant, I felt as though a vital part of me

~ ELIJAH ~“Ms. Thorne.”I called behind her, noticing how she halted in her tracks without swerving around to face me.I strolled in quick steps, approaching her with my sweaty fingers raking through my hair.She turned around to stare at me, her purse tightly clutched in her hands. A small smile was carved on the corners of her lips, sending a strange jolt through my chest.There was something about her. Her aura and the confidence exuding from her whole personality.She was nothing like Danielle, my late wife—ex-wife. Yet, there was a spark and a defiance that I could recognize.Davina felt daring, and the way she’d spoken eloquently in the boardroom had left me utterly speechless.“Did you forget anything, Mr. Harrington? Or perhaps you’ve mistaken me for someone who entertains casual talks after a corporate takeover.”Sassy.Her voice. I could listen to her talk all day without being bored. Her soft, sweet voice was like a melodious tone fit for my ears.It sounded familiar yet n

~ DANIELLE ~Cameron didn’t fail to remind me of the sex I hadn’t had in years. Beneath the warmth of his body and his touch, something ignited in me—a fire, my burning desires.After he’d said those words, our lips locked again. This time, it was more intense, fierce… passionate? I couldn’t decipher if the last part was right, but…He swooped me off the couch and completely off my feet. I nibbled on his lips hungrily, my hands wrapped around his neck to hold my balance.His hands held me firmly on my butt cheeks. I moaned into his mouth, feeling the wetness of my panties.Four years… and I’d never felt the touch of a man.“Danielle,” he breathed hotly on my face after breaking off the kiss. “I want you, more than anything right now.”The raw passion lingered in his tone, making me swallow hard as I struggled on how to handle it. I’d taken our friendship as something platonic, free, but Cameron had gotten too engrossed in my part of playing his late wife.I shared the same current co

~ DANIELLE ~ “What’s going on here?” That was the perfect moment for Sorayah to walk in. I’d been so lost in a trance that I’d forgotten about her and the fact that I was in her husband’s office. I expected Elijah to pull away from me immediately, but he didn’t. I made the first move, taking a few steps back to retreat. Sorayah’s heels clicked on the marble floor as she stormed towards Elijah with the fury that spread into the air. “I asked a question! What are you doing with her? And why are you so close together?” I raked my fingers through my hair, standing in place while I watched Elijah struggle for his words. His eyes appeared hazy and firm. It was almost as if he didn’t have a hint of remorse. And he showed none. “Sorayah—‘ “—It’s babe,” she corrected through gritted teeth, making me laugh silently. “Have you forgotten that we’re married?” She was desperately trying too hard to rub it in my face. I cleared my throat slightly, earning both attention as I spoke
