Novel & Cerita Falling In Love With My Ex Husband

Because I married a person I didn’t love and knew she was a stupid woman. Sarah had stolen his heart long before his parents planned for his future, and this made him feel close to tears. I was very fond of her before… But I still do so now. Flashbacks of what we shared came to me: kisses in the park, soft promises made while looking at the stars, and chats we shared late at night. Those memories seemed so far away these days.

I nod. I'm falling in love with my husband.

My heart was racing like a hailstorm, not just from the physical exertion but from the flood of emotions I’d been trying to suppress. What the hell have you done, Valeria? This is making it twice in a row that you have fallen in love with Reese! The realization was like a punch to the gut, knocking the air out of my lungs. I had fallen for my ex-husband again. How did I let this happen? How did I go from plotting his downfall to lying in his arms, vulnerable and exposed?

“You feel responsible—for him, for me. That’s all this is. You were right about yourself before… you didn’t fall in love with me easily.” His gaze pinned me again—sharper now, almost wounded. “I think… all this time, I’ve been in love with you,” he said, his voice low and deliberate. “I just didn’t want to admit it. It still feels strange… and with my memory loss, I guess that means I’ve fallen in love with you twice then.” My breath caught. “Twice?” I whispered. He nodded slowly. “A while after our divorce… I found some of Grandpa’s old things. On his phone, there were photos from our wedding. Videos, too. One of my birthday.”

Love. I loved him. He loved me. It was perfect. We were almost there. To get married. Oh, how fate played with my life. A month before the wedding day, he told me he met his ex and he fell in love with her again. He left me with just a letter. He was a coward jerk who finally rebuilt my wall. So high, and so strong that I lost faith in love. I hated him. I decided to bury the old me, who was broken inside, then rose as the new me through my job. I’ve found joy in my singleness and I love the feeling. I’m free.

Xander’s eyes softened, but he didn’t interrupt me, letting me pour out my heart. “Then there was my ex husband.” I laughed out a very ugly laugh. “We were perfect on paper, but there wasn't really an spark in our marriage. Foolish me was trying to convince myself that it would get good with time and that he would learn to love me more in the marriage. I also wanted the marriage to work and have a baby because I was getting old too. We had Ethan and I thought finally a breakthrough, he'd love me more because of the baby. But he didn't, I found him pants down in our home railing one of the many models he worked with.”

He wasn't joking. He wasn't saying it to make me feel good. He meant it. And as I stared at Nicholas Lancaster---my contract husband, my ex-husband's brother, and the man who'd just claimed me so thoroughly I could still feel him inside me---I realized something terrifying. I was falling for him. I had fallen for my ex-husband's brother. And there was definitely no going back from this.

I thought spending all this time around the man who had broken my heart would only make me suffer. I’m so stupid. It took seeing him every day again, hearing his voice and touching him, just like when we were married, for me to realize that my feelings for him never really died. My ex-husband was the one who destroyed everything that was between us with such ease. Just because of one lie. And yet, I'm hesitating.

“I just want to say hi. And please be prepared, because very soon I’ll claim you and my children again. I admit, I chose gold over a diamond like you, Lia. But just tell your husband, tell him your ex is back. Tell him in a way he’ll understand, like this: DEAR HUSBAND, MY EX IS BACK.” Her trembling fingers almost dropped the phone. Her world tilted for a second, and she almost forgot how to breathe. No. No, this couldn’t be happening.
