A Kiss And Many Lies
De ~ Fortune's Ecstasy ✍️
1 "It's over between us, honey." I said to Clyde, flinging the divorce papers at him. You don't want to be the bad guy, am I right? Well now, you don't have to worry about who the bad guy is."
He watched the papers flutter to the floor, dumfounded.
They assumed she was still in a coma and so wouldn't see them. Even if she wasn't, this wouldn't be the first time her dear husband would kiss another woman in her presence.
She saw nothing. But the slurps and moans woke her from the state of coma. The raptures and gasps had kept her from resting, and their shivers of pleasure caused a tear to drop from her eye.
She collapsed making lunch for him. But here he was, making out with a woman she considered to be her best friend.
All she could think of was revenge, and she knew who was perfect for the job. Not only was she going to get back at him, she was going to show her true identity now.
She comes out of the hospital with his twins inside of her and left him alone with the realization that his life was about to change forever.
Whisked away to a different world, Everleigh finds love in the arms of Clyde's arch nemesis.
Love, hate, betrayal, resentment, envy and secret babies. It all started with one good kiss on the wrong lips, and a lot of lies to the wrong ears.
Five Times Too Many
For eight years in a marriage devoid of light, I had abortions five times. Every time, Sam would grip my hand when I woke up, his eyes red, and promise to find the best doctors to help me recover.
After the third miscarriage, he finally hired a team of top-tier nutritionists, ensuring that every single meal was planned perfectly.
He always comforted me, "Don't worry, Penny. We're still young, so we can have another baby!"
When I found out I was pregnant again, snowflakes were dancing outside my window.
I wrapped my fur coat tightly around my body and rushed to the company, only to hear Wren's furious voice outside the VIP suite, "Are you insane? Those five babies were your own flesh and blood!"
Sam replied coldly, "Nicole needs specimen for her experiments. All I'm doing is providing her with the materials she needs."
His words dug into my heart like icy spikes, and I could even hear my own bones cracking.
"As for Penelope…" He chuckled. "Do you think that our marriage certificate is the real deal?"
Snowflakes stung my face like needles, and I finally found out the truth about our marriage.
From the very beginning, I was nothing more than a living test subject for the woman he truly loved.
Sam was right. Those unborn children never even had legal identities, and were worth less than a piece of paper, just like my so-called marriage.
Glass shattered from inside the room, and I could hear Wren cursing, but I turned and walked towards the elevator.
Since Sam's priority was Nicole and nothing else, I was hell-bent on making him pay the price.
COME TO ME
The dark matter had come to claim her soul.
"Don't go. Do as he says," grandmother said. Suzanne blinked and looked into her grandmother's face.
"Grandmama?”
Grandmother's eyes were no longer glazed, and she had spoken with such clarity when usually, her speech was slurred. At that very moment, Suzanne had no doubt that her grandmother’s mind was crystal clear.
Grandmother held onto Suzanne's hand and gently pried open her palm, revealing the black mark. Grandmother's eyes narrowed as she traced her bony finger on Suzanne's palm before staring back at Suzanne.
"This," she pointed at Suzanne's palm, "This is the mark of the beast.”
One Too Many Red Flags
"Ms. Harris, you're already six months pregnant. The baby is fully formed... Are you sure you want to go through with the abortion? The hospital strongly advises against it." The doctor said hesitatingly.
Phoebe Harris instinctively placed a hand over her swollen belly.
Six months. The child had grown inside her, from something no bigger than a grain of rice to the size it was now.
They say a mother and her child share an unspoken bond, and she could feel it too. If she weren't utterly broken inside, what mother would ever have the heart to give up her baby who was about to enter the world?
After a silence that seemed to stretch on forever, Phoebe took a deep breath. Then, with a resolve that left no room for doubt, she said, "I'm sure."
Wishes Come True
Francesca Write
On Christmas people should be with their loved ones in the safety of their homes, but I don't have any loved ones, and I'm in the one place that I hate, where I swore never to come back, afraid that I'll get even more broken, and it seems that the more I try to get away, the more obstacles I encounter.
"I know a shop not very far from here, and they have the best mechanics in town. If you want, I could come with you and give you directions, I'm heading that way anyway, and for your kindness, I'll make your biggest wish come true," Said the old crazy Santa that jumped in front of my car out of nowhere.
"Can you teleport me from here? In another city, country, even on a deserted island? Anywhere but here?" I know that it wasn't nice of me to be sarcastic, but he's the reason why I have to prolong my say here.
"No." His short answer was said in an amused tone of voice, but I don't find anything funny right now.
"But that's just because that's not your biggest wish." He states it as a fact as if he's never been more sure of anything in his life.
I bite my tongue and pray that I won't see the two people I used o love the most, and which now, I despise the most, the two people responsible for my nightmares and my broken being.
