Wrecking His Marriage (Short Story Collection)
It’s the agony of watching the man I love marry someone else and the agonizing knowledge that I can’t say anything in public to counter it.
I’ll always be his secret, and I hate myself for accepting that role. I wonder, sometimes, if the sex wasn’t good enough. Or if I should have let it just be sex, a temporary release, instead of letting it grow into something more. Something that feels so much like love.
“What’s on your mind, Tesoro?” His voice is a low rumble, startling me out of my thoughts. I turn to meet his gaze, which is already fixed on mine.
He yawns gently, and stares at me, his eyelashes fluttering as he wakes up. My stomach feels warm, again. It shouldn't be.
