All Chapters of TIT FOR TAT: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Chapter 32SERENAI walked without knowing where I was going.The night air was cool against my face, but I barely noticed it. My handbag hung from my shoulder, and my arms swung loosely at my sides as I moved along the road.Behind me, Adrian's voice had faded.I could still hear him calling my name in my head, though.Serena!I hadn't turned around. I couldn't.If I had turned around, I was afraid I would have seen the confused expression on his face and remembered the woman I used to be—the woman who would never walk away from her husband without explaining herself.But that woman didn't exist anymore. Or perhaps she did. Perhaps she was simply buried underneath everything I had discovered.I slowed down.My mind returned to what had happened in the bedroom.Adrian's smile. His confidence. The way he had spoken as though four months of rejection could simply disappear because he had suddenly decided he wanted his wife again.My hands curled into fists.How could he? How could someo

Chapter 34I bit my lower lip, tasting the faint trace of gloss, "That's Serena's effect." Then I continued, “But if I’m being honest here, even I… I couldn’t stop thinking about you and the time we spent,” I admitted, heat rising in my cheeks even as my nipples tightened beneath the thin material already waiting for what was coming.Then Alex pulled over to a quiet road and stopped the car. Then, he reached across the console, his fingers brushing mine as he unbuckled his seatbelt. The click sounded loud in the quiet car. He leaned over me, close enough that I could smell his cologne, and unclipped my belt with deliberate slowness. “Have you been fucked in a car before?” he asked, voice rough.I leaned forward, letting my breasts press against his arm, and met his eyes with the look I knew drove him crazy. “I haven’t,” I whispered, “but I would love this hot man beside me to show me how it feels.”The words barely left my lips before Alex moved. His mouth crashed onto mine, hungry an

Chapter 36I had never been able to reduce her to desire.She was too important. Too pure in my mind. Too far above the mess I had created.I pressed my fingers against my temples, "What is wrong with me?" I whispered.The question had no answer. I loved Serena. I knew that. There was no woman who could take her place in my life. No matter how many women I slept with. No matter how beautiful they were. No matter how exciting they seemed.None of them was Serena.Yet my weakness remained. I could be faithful to my feelings for Serena and still betray her with my actions. That was the ugly truth. I could love her and still hurt her. And I had.Again and again.The private jet continued through the night. I reached for my phone.Her name appeared in my contacts.My Wife ❤️My thumb hovered over it. I almost called her.Then I remembered the look on her face whenever I had returned home. I put the phone down. I would talk to her when I got home.Properly. No lies. No excuses.At least, th

Chapter 38VANESSAThree million dollars was sitting pretty in my account. I couldn’t be more happy.My heels clicked against the polished floor as I passed through the entrance, but my mind wasn't on the money anymore.It was on Alex. My husband. I couldn't help wondering what kind of reception I would receive when I got home.Alex was predictable. He had always been predictable. That was one of the things I liked about him.He loved me. Completely. Even blindly, sometimes. He trusted me without asking too many questions. He never checked my phone. Never demanded explanations. Never wondered why I occasionally disappeared. And perhaps that was why I could never completely hate him.Alex was a good man. A genuinely good man. I had known that from the beginning. He wasn't like Adrian.Adrian was exciting. Adrian knew how to make a woman feel wanted. He spent money without blinking. He lived the kind of life I had always dreamed about.But Alex...Alex had been kind to me. Patient. Loya

Chapter 40He glanced at them."From Spain?""Yes.""Nice."Just that. Nice.I stared at him, "That's it?"He shrugged, "What do you want me to say?"I forced another smile, "I don't know. Maybe thank you?""Thank you." The words were so dry that I almost laughed.What had happened to him? I couldn't understand it."I need to go to work." He suddenly said.I turned slowly, "Now?""Yes."I stared at him, "At night?""Yes."A small laugh escaped me, "You want to go to work at night?""I have things to handle." He simply said.I watched him pick up his keys. My amusement disappeared."Alex."He looked at me, "What?""You just got your wife back."He raised an eyebrow."And?"I stared at him."You're leaving?""I have work.""But it's night.""I know.""You don't usually leave me alone at night." I tried to reason with him.He shrugged, "Maybe things have changed."The words landed strangely.I took a step toward him, "What does that mean?""It means I have work."He walked toward the doo
