ALLYSA'S POV “Good evening ma'am.” Benny greeted as I made my way into the house with several shopping bags. “How was your day? I should help you with these.” She said, taking the bags from me and walking up the stairs.“I'm fine Benny, my day was great too. I had fun.”“I'll set the table.”“I'm not gonna have dinner, I'm full you should serve Lucas when he gets back.” I said and she nodded and walked out.Sighing loudly, I placed my bag on the bed and proceeded into the bathroom to have a shower and change. By the time I came out, it was already dark and Lucas was not yet back.I settled in bed, turning on the TV as I began scrolling through the channels.“You came back early.” Lucas said, walking into the bedroom as I smiled. “I sure did.” I replied as a knock came through the door.“Come in.” Benny walked in with a bowl containing fruits as I furrowed my brows. “What's this?”“For us, I'm not having dinner so we should have fruit, she told me you weren't having dinner too.”“Did
LUCAS POV Jack will really have my neck on a pole for doing this but why did I do it? I asked myself as I sat by the poolside, closing my eyes.“You have to believe me Lucas, it's not what you think, besides why did you have someone stalk me? It's ridiculous.”“You're a cheat Allysa, get that into your head.” Tears rolled freely down my cheeks as he walked towards the door. “You really believe what you saw?” I asked, holding him back.“Yes I do, I believe it and there's nothing you can do about it.” he pushed my hands off him as I fell to the ground.“Now you can feel what I've been feeling with your cold treatment.”“Shit.” I muttered. I said a lot of insensible things. The next morning when I woke up, Allysa wasn't in bed and it made me wonder where she had gone to. My phone buzzed and as I looked at the name displayed on the screen, I closed my eyes.“Hi Granny.”“How are you doing Lucas? How's Allysa?” She asked as I got out of bed and began walking out of the bedroom down the s
ALLYSA'S POV She was still texting him? Mouth felt sour and dry and tears pooled in my eyes again, why's all these happening and why now? I placed his phone on the bedside table and pulled the duvet over my body before closing my eyes. It took a long time before I could finally sleep and the next moment I opened my eyes, a little sunlight was pouring in through the window.I turned to look at Lucas but his spot was empty and the shower was running in the bathroom.I got out of bed and walked out of the bedroom, “Good morning ma'am.” Benny greeted, walking past me as she made her way into the kitchen.“Morning Benny, did you just wake up?”“Yes ma'am, do you wanna prepare breakfast? I can__”“I'll prepare it with your assistance.” I replied and she nodded smiling. I noticed she loves cooking and was sometimes sad whenever I decided to cook.After preparing breakfast, we set the table and few minutes later, Lucas walked down the stairs.“Breakfast is served.”“I'm really in a haste an
ALLYSA'S POV I stood on my feet, following him swiftly. It's already dark so where exactly was he going to? My heart skipped as I recalled our wedding night. He'd gone out and we still faced the consequences till today, now this?“Lucas, where are you going to? Lucas!” I yelled as he got to the car.He opened the door but I shut it and leaned on the door. “Aren't you tired of treating me like shit? I've apologized, begged, I've done what every reasonable wife would do so tell me where I went wrong and for the record Lucas__” I paused and turned to look around.“I don't even know what sex feels like, you were my first kiss, first intimate touch,first everything so why won't you believe me.”“You told me you weren't a virgin.” He fired.“I guess I lied!” I fired angrily,the tears was rolling freely down my cheeks but I didn't care. “Lucas, I know I wanted this marriage to end, I didn't want to get married and all but now? I do with all my heart. I want this marriage to work, I want t
LEAH'S POV “He's almost out, I made sure to tell the bartender to spike his drink.” One of the pretty whore I sent said, stretching her hand. I looked at her hand in disgust and placed the wad of cash in her palm.“That's the spirit girl but he told me he's married.” I scoffed and walked away from her. I sighted him the minute he walked in and of course when I saw him order a bottle? I knew he wanted to get wasted or forget something hurtful.I walked over to where he was and joined him on the other stool. His eyes were half opened and half closed.“Hi handsome.” He smiled, taking his hand to my face.“Allysa?” He called and I scoffed. Why won't he forget about her?“You miss her? Huh?” I asked as he smiled and nodded. “I…. I messed up, I made her angry can you believe it? I cannot face her right now.”“Is that the reason you came out? Huh?” I asked and picked my phone up.“Has he paid for the drinks?”“Yes he has.” The bartender replied as I nodded and dialed a number on my phone.“
ALLYSA'S POV “Did he come in last night? Did he sleep in the other bedroom?” I spoke to my self, deeply wishing he'd done that then I'll be really happy but as I opened the door to each of the bedrooms, my worst fear came crashing down on me. He didn't return home last night, he didn't pick his calls and he didn't care to tell me where he spent the night.I finished dressing up, took my bag and was about stepping out of the bedroom when he bumped into me.He looked like he had a rough night but asides that, he looked clean.“Where did you spend the night?” It came out before I could reason properly and stop my mouth from uttering nonsense.“You didn't pick your calls, didn't text back either. You ghosted me Lucas, you ghosted your wife!” I promised myself I wasn't going to cry over him but the tears were piling up and my throat was in a tight knot.“Allysa calm down, I spent the night at Jack's place of course I went to the club to clear my head and then I went over to his place.” He
ALLYSA'S POV “Allysa I want to kiss you.” I heard him point blank but I couldn't process what he just said. “Allysa?”“Lucas.” I called as he pulled me closer, his cheek nuzzling my neck as I took in a deep breath. “I really want to kiss you Allysa.” His voice vibrated through my skin.“Then what are you waiting for?” I whispered, locking eyes with him as he smiled and tilted my face upwards before claiming my lips. The kiss was as gentle as touching a feather to ones hand, his tongue pushed my lips apart, making me gasp as I held his shoulder for support.He broke off the kiss but kept our faces some inch closer. “Did you like it?” He asked and I nodded.We went downstairs to have dinner, Lucas served me while asking me to sit and relax since I was looking really pale.We ate in silence, stealing occasional glances at each other before retiring to our bedroom.Morning came too soon for me and I was yet to inform Lucas about quitting my job. I got out of bed and walked over to the ba
LUCAS POV “I ask again, what do you want?” “It's quite simple, I'll give you my terms and conditions, you're to dance to my tune, do not, I repeat do not test me, do not try to act smart, I'm not a nice person.” She said and poured some wine into the second glass.“You should have some, it's gonna be a lengthy discussion and you might become thirsty.” I scoffed and looked away.“Get on with whatever you wanna say, I'm running impatient.” She chuckled, shaking her head.“Oh but our time together just begun, we still have half an hour together.”“Why did you record us having sex?” I asked,anger lacing my speech.“I believe you're not so dumb and you should know where this conversation is heading to, ever since our encouter I've always wanted to have you as mine but of course you just wouldn't let me close to you.”“I'm married!”“I'm not done talking.” She fired, sipping her wine and licking her lips.“Of course I know you're married do not rub it on my face. All I wanted was you atte
