He Wants Two Wives She Wants A Divorce

On my son Theo’s birthday, my husband Dashiell brought home his first love, Sabrina. My son was forgotten, I was ignored, and my mother-in-law treated me like a servant. Dashiell, instead of comforting me, declared that because Sabrina was dying of cancer, he would fake a divorce and marry her to fulfill her dying wish. I could no longer endure it—I decided to turn the “fake divorce” into a real one. Dashiell thought he had everything under control, but he underestimated me…

She married him knowing one thing clearly: love was never part of the agreement. Their marriage was built on terms, not promises. A shared home. A shared bed. A public image to maintain. Nothing more. He was distant, controlled, and never cruel — but never warm either. To him, she was a wife in name, a solution to a problem, a role that needed to be filled. What neither of them expected was how silence could become dangerous. How intimacy without love could still leave marks. How wanting someone could come long before admitting it. As the line between obligation and desire begins to blur, she must decide how long she can stay where she isn’t truly chosen — and he must face the truth he never planned for. Because sometimes, the most dangerous thing isn’t loving someone too much… It’s realizing you never meant to love them at all.

The doctor said my husband Ethan had dual personality. His primary personality was gentle and devoted. His alter — "Axel" — was reckless and wild. In five years of marriage, every time Axel surfaced, he'd fall for a different woman. Each time, I'd have to pull out our marriage certificate, walk him through our love story from the beginning, just to bring Ethan back. This time, Axel had set his sights on the new dance instructor. I dropped what I was doing at work, ready to go collect him from the psychiatrist's office — same as always. But outside the treatment room, I heard him on the phone with one of his buddies, laughing: "What can I say — I'm a hell of an actor. Five years and she still hasn't caught on." "Besides, why settle for the wife at home when there's so much more fun out there?" The panic I'd been feeling went very, very still. I pulled up my lawyer's number and texted him: Get the divorce papers ready.

“Divorce papers? Seriously?” “I was going to have them delivered to your office since you decided not to come home,” she said. “But thankfully, you saved me the trouble.” She gestured toward the documents. “I already signed them. All that's left is your signature. Once you're done, my lawyer will pick them up.” “Lawyer?” Ethan echoed mockingly. “You can't even afford one.” Aurora shrugged. “Don't make decisions you'll regret, Aurora.” “I already did,” she replied flatly. “And he’s looking right at me.” “If I sign these papers,” Ethan warned, “don't come crawling back to me. Because when you do, this door won't be open to you.” Rolling her eyes, Aurora rose to her feet. “Just sign the damn thing. I've already moved all my belongings out of this house, so you don't have to worry about running into me. And please, if by some chance we do cross paths again, let's act like strangers.” ****************** In a desperate attempt to escape the suffocating control of her powerful family, Aurora Wells fakes a humble life and marries a man she believes truly loves her, only to be disowned for choosing him. Five years later, her marriage shatters when she discovers her husband has been having an affair with a man, in exchange for business advancement. When he coldly asks her to look away, Aurora serves him divorce papers and returns to the world she once rejected, where she is not a nobody. Back in her elite life, Aurora crosses paths with the ex-fiancé, the man originally chosen for her by her family. Meanwhile, her husband learns of the return of Wells Heiress and not knowing that she’s his ex-wife, sets out to seduce and maybe marry her for her status and connection.

Alexander wants a divorce. His wife is the heiress to the richest conglomerate in the world and is detached from reality. Arrogant, self-centered, and inconsiderate to the point that she does whatever it takes to get what she wants - Alexander being one of her many conquests. But when he finally asks for a divorce, she is relieved to have him gone? But he thought she orchestrated their whole marriage? Was it a lie? Was there more to this superficial Daddy’s princess who could have whatever she wanted? Was she really more than meets the eye? Or was this just another one of her elaborate plots to keep him under her thumb?

"You can give everything to a man—your time, your love, your life—but if you’re not the woman he wants, none of it matters." I wish I had known that before. Almost ten years of marriage. And now here he is — ready to leave me, take my son, and marry my sister. And worse? He’s making the world believe I’ve gone mad. Seven years. Seven years of sacrificing. Of putting him first, of trying to be the wife he said he needed. And now? I’m locked away, labeled crazy. The whole of Atlanta is praying for me. Because they all think I’ve broken down. That I’m sick. And that lie? It’s his. My sisters’. My parents’. My best friends’. Even my sons’. Yes — the boy I raised like mine. He made a video. Said I fell down the stairs, and that’s what triggered all this. It’s viral now. But it's not the entire truth; it’s just the story they needed. I gave them everything. Held this family together. Played every role — wife, mother, daughter, friend. I was everything… well, everything until she came back. Now that their perfect girl is home, I’m just in the way. And the best way to erase me? Label me unstable. Even my son wants her to be his mom. My husband? He says I was never the one. The truth is, they never really wanted me. Well, not until…
