I always knew I was meant for great things but nobody believed me. As I sat in the waiting room I realized that life was good for the people who knew how to grab opportunities. For instance, someone else might have felt bad about selling out a family’s dirty secrets but I did not. That I get a big scoop, a career advancement and a paycheck and they do not. Simply because they think it is against morals. As far as I know, morals are just society’s way of forcing us to conform and I am far too great to conform to any man’s rules except mine.“Miss Waylon will be with you shortly” The pretty Latina looking receptionist says in fluent, un-accentuated English. It still baffles me how these foreigners in our land manage to blend in at places like this. As far as I am concerned any ass that is that thick belongs on my sheets and only on my sheets. Suddenly I wonder how my dear Beth is doing. I had and amazing night with her. She was so supple and so warm. Along with a great fuck, she also pr

I couldn't believe what I was seeing. My phone had beeped signalling a message had come in while I was busy trying to figure out a way to contact Cole and try to explain the whole situation and why I kept my real identity away from him all these time. Only for me to receive this heart wrenching message again! It was a video of me and Nate while he took advantage of me and raped to fulfil his own desires. A gasp escaped my lips and I felt dizzy for a while as I lost my balance and fell on the floor, my phone still in my hands but I was panicking.Why was all of these happening in such a rush to me? What on earth was it that I had done to Nate to deserve this? First he drugs me then takes advantage of me and rapes to his satisfaction. Not only did he stop there, he also made a tape to intimidate and blackmail me. My heart began to beat faster as another gasp unconsciously fell from my mouth and a sob threatened to break through from me. I watched the whole video and my face was obvious

Elizabeth's povMy eyes were puffy by morning from all the tears I had shed the last night. I couldn't even try to hide the sadness on my face because it had eaten deep into my soul. I couldn't say I felt empty but I felt unworthy and useless as I stared at myself in the mirror. My legs were still feeling sore from my encounter with Nate and there was no one I could tell because I'll end up getting blamed and be told I also played a part in inviting Nate.A fresh round of tears wound up in my eyes and I couldn't help but try to muffle the cry that threatened to escape my mouth.Why was nothing going my way recently? I and Cole were having a blissful vacation with our friends only for it to turn to chaos at this point. I knew I was at fault for hiding my identity from Cole but he shouldn't have left me, he shouldn't have walked away when he could just control his temper, calm himself down and listen to my side of the story. He left me and I was desperate to have someone beside me in my

While drinking with his friends in the bar, he began to think of Elizabeth as he chugged the liquid down his throat, 'Elizabeth...' he slurred slowly in a whisper.He stared down at his glass as he twirled the margarita around. The chuckling and happy giggles of his friends had all ho e to the whirlwind as the thoughts of Beth began to envelope him.He suddenly began to miss her, 'but why would he even miss her?' he queried himself internally! It was just a contract marriage. Nothing more and nothing less, and besides in a few months the contract period will be over and I'll pay her off; out of my mind... Out of my life, forever.He said to himself, "Hey buddy" a voice had woken him out of his reverie it was Zayn. "Yeah?" Cole replied him, all eyes on the table were all focused on him. All wondering why he'd been quiet all this time."Is anything bothering you Cole? Cause you've been out of it for some time now" Zayn continued, acting like a big brother whom he could lean on at any t

LIZAI woke up to the sound of my notification alarm going off like a bell. My belly dropped as a gut instinct of what happened filled my belly. I knew what it was. I just didn't want to believe it.He did it. I snatched my phone from the table top, steeling myself to open it. The first thing I saw was the tabloid headline. I felt bile rise in my throat as my eyes scanned it."Billionaire's Wife caught cheating on him with proof!"And they just kept getting worse. I ignored the notification of people tagging me, knowing it would only take me back to where I was throughout these past nights.I opened my chat inbox, seeing about a thousand message notifications from my group chat with Crystal and Karry. I checked if Cole had texted me, but saw nothing. I ignored the side of me telling me I should leave him alone and texted him.Coco Honey Bear: Please call me. Don't look at the news. You need to hear me explain first.I opened the group chat next, skipping through the numerous messages,

BethLife was a bitch. Who said good always won? They lied. I am not the best person out there and I should have told Cole the truth but I did not deserve this. I had laid in my bathtub for what feels like mere minutes but when I moved my limbs, the intense pins-and-needle sensation made me realise it had been longer than that. I had ben sitting in this tub lost in thought for 2 hours. The same tub Cole and I had shared. The tears gathered in my eyes again and I tied to force them back. Crrying would not help. I had done enough of it the past 2 days to know. I needed a game plan, an organized, plan.Leaving the bathroom, I got dressed and by some twisted fate stepped on the remote. The TV came on and my face came on screen. It was a good picture of me that was used but that was not the point. The headlines were haunting “After Billionaire’s Wife is Found Cheating, Husband Returns Alone. Could it be the End to a Seemingly Perfect but Short-lived Marriage?” I crumbled to the floor. When

ElizabethThe mornings got worse. Everytime I woke up and didn't see Cole next to me and knowing why he wasn't, it was starting to take a huge toll on my mental health. I rubbed my face, releasing my breath through as a hiss through my teeth.I picked up my phone from the bedside cabinet. I didn't even know who I was going to call. Crystal and Karry were back in Hawaii, and I wasn't about to ask them to come over for me.I could get through this on my own. I just had to keep my head clear and keep running through those practice breathing techniques.I had deleted any form of social media whatsoever, in order to keep myself from going online and seeing the nasty things people were speculating about me.I turned off my phone, throwing off my covers with my empty hand. I slipped my feet into the slippers by the bed, moving towards the kitchen. The pantry was still full, so I decided to treat myself to a lavish breakfast.I wasn't sure I would finish it, but it would lift my spirits. drop

How could one drunken night, one mistake, one moment of weakness turn my life into this hell hole, how it could ruin your whole life. I wasn't sure what to do, I was too weak to fight, too drained to defend myself.I have been living a lie and I knew it was going to catch up with me, I knew it was going to be the death of me. Why did I sign that stupid contract in the first place, why did I fall in love with Cole, I shouldn't have let him drag me to this stupid vacation. This was where all this started, but even without being told I knew the worst was yet to come, and by the worst I mean; Nate, the bastard who was blackmailing me. But I am done letting men ride me and take advantage of me.I could literally hear the voice of my mother crying one of those nights I had come home to meet her high on cheap coke, with a bottle of whiskey in her hands and her massacre falling from her eyes.I abhorred those moments because I was left to pick up her piece and could call her out of her bullsh

ELIZABETH The phone rang.I turned and tossed as I was the only one awake at the moment, with Cole snoring peacefully close to where I was.He needed it. He had been a good boy doing all the work all night long, I groaned as I got out of bed making my way all naked to where the phone of the cabin."Can you pick that up please." Cole grunted in his sleep.Last night had been a hell of a night, and we've done several things all night till daybreak. It all started with the couples bonfire night —As the last day's event , guess we had too much of the local brewed drink of the South Africans.Could it be termed as?Reconciliation sex? It was far more than that.It was the One month of getting back together with Cole and all we've done during those times was literally fuck all day.We were like new couples who couldn't take our eyes and urge off each other.It was all we did more so it was the reason why we had taken the trip.Olivia had been there first to look at it then had sent the lin

COLE.THE best decision I had ever made in my life was getting rid of Evelyn and that of course was after the Dna test came out negative.Guess Eliza was shocked when my doctor gave out the evidence, I was not the father of Sarah but in a way I felt concern for her well-being.Just like Adrian who was sitting close to Eliza and been in Riel life.I had been jealous for a while seeing them together but then I had taken my mind off it by looking at the face of the judge.It was all going in my favor, there was maids and guards all there to tell the court of how Evelyn had been toxic all this while.All of a sudden, it became a two-way case with me battling for the custody of two children.An Alpha man in every sense…It was funny that Evelyn was only starting to love her child after she found out that she has a part of my finances willed to her name but that had been a trap at my end.Women like Evelyn deserved to be in rehabilitation or even worse hell."Is that all or there are still

ELIZABETHGoosebumps…It was a day to the trial and that seemed to be what took over all or most of my mind, I didn't know how to deal with all of the pressure.Work that week had been hectic, yet at the same time it had been distracting enough that it kept me afloat all this while, it had been the main reason I had not wallowed In what could be the decision made by the court.The wind found its way past my body feeling it with smoothness but left my soul bare, dark and inexpressive.I was out at the mall, smiling at the door man that held the door while I stood looking past the opened door with two bags in my head.As my gaze shifted to the second car, a convertible, where a tall, handsome man was alighting, dressed in rolled up top and faded jeans. I reeled back in shock as he turned towards where I was with Cole slipping out of my lips silently.Disbelief fought with unmistakable recognition, I was barely ten minutes from my house and of all the malls in the whole of the city, h

ELIZABETHWe were always in pursuit of perfection and after getting it all, what else?The need for Perfection was by far the greatest flaw of any man and I found myself succumbing to the same fate.I have gotten the revenge I had spent the last five years of my life looking for but still had no satisfaction—It was all like vanity.To make matters worse Riel had incessantly been talking about his father, in a way it seemed like the two had a bond I couldn't quite describe almost as though they were meant to be with each other all this long while.It was the main reason I had moved out of the hotel and gotten a place, I couldn't just live a life where I kept looking over my shoulders if Cole would pop in anytime and demand for his child.Suddenly, it was starting to look like the game had turned against me and I was the one at the end of everything all, I was the one that was mocked by fate.Over the next few weeks, I worked very hard at blocking Cole out of my consciousness, and

ELIZABETH.It calls for celebration right?The thought of how Cole would feel hearing that I had taken this from him at the last moment brought a smirk to my face.It took me five years, five good years and finally I could say that I had gotten a revenge that was worthwhile.He had rang them in my presence and they had given him the news.A part of me felt a kind of sympathy for the man that had been my husband and who was definitely the father of my child but soon the expression and sick feeling gave room for the grudges I had against him.I was half home and was giving Evelyn the gossip of how everything went when she informed me that she was no longer at the suite but was now at her place.Apparently, she got a call from the office and since she couldn't leave him behind she had gone with him to her place."Why do I have a feeling you just want to see me?" I asked.She scoffed ." Just get your ass here."Change of plans…I thought to myself as I turned the car three-sixty degrees a

COLE "What!"My car came to an abrupt stop on the road, I thought I was done hearing bad news and this popped up out of nowhere.I couldn't think about the possibility of this happening,I couldn't think about me losing the deal and if it was happening that way it was starting to look like Karma was all out to get me.I swerved my car in a complete U turn and headed straight back for the company driving crazilyStill running the thought in my mind, In a way it was hard to believe everything he was telling me, as I couldn't quite place it around my mind.The more I thought about it, the more I saw reasons not to.I rang the company while driving through the highway like quite an insane person. The only memories that kept going through my mind were two.The first had something to do with getting there as fast as I could and the other was a warning thought about how fast I was driving.This shouldn't even be happening, I had outbidded the least person by a whole lot.They picked after r

ELIZABETHImagine the shock.I stood there looking at the prospective bidders and there — Right there was Cole's name.A smirk crawled across so fast as the speed of light, you wouldn't have caught a glimpse of it if you didn't look.One thing I have gotten to know about my Ex husband was he went for only deals that were deemed necessary and important. If he was going for this it meant it was quite as important.It could mean only one thing…The thought of the implications passed through my mind.There was a need for me to know, a need for me to know how important this was to me."Do you have any idea of how important this deal would be to him?" I turned to Annabelle—My lawyer."You mean you don't know?" She looked at me puzzled.The look she gave me was as though I didn't know what was going on …What looked to be trending.If it was, it got me wondering Olivia didn't mention it to me-"Know what?" I looked at her expressing the same emotions that was right they're still on her face.

ELIZABETH There was only one way to explain how blissful a home is and the truth is there was nothing like home?Could there have been anything more?Certainly not as the best part of any entity was getting back home after staying away for so long.No matter how one looked at it… it turned out to be that home is where the heart is .That was the case with my mind all through the trip back home to start. I didn't know what to expect when I got home, whether good or bad.Five years had not been a short while and it was easy to see that a lot had changed during those long while.All through this while I had been far away from home and had probably missed the concept of what a good home could be but the moment my plane landed in the track I could see everything again.The probabilities were high and I could tell everything from the moment we walked through the airport hallway pulling out bags.From a frantic Riel excited to have a feel of the city to myself that didn't know how to take
