Grace

—5 Days Later…

Alma didn’t come inside that day. She left after hearing what I said and it satisfied her—I just knew it.

Tristin, however, went silent. He didn’t say anything to me, but he didn’t leave me alone either.

The doctors said that I had to stay for a week in the hospital and during that time, Tristin refused to spend any night at home. He would go to his office, get the work done, sometimes Luca would even bring his clothes and files to the hospital room and he would work from here. I was annoyed at him most of the time, but I didn’t break the silence between us.

I told him all that and he didn’t say anything at all. His silence felt like a challenge that stated ‘Get me away from you if you can’ and it made me frustrated.

At night, Tristin slept on the couch and haunted me all the time. I didn’t know how to get him off my back anymore.

“ How are you doing today, Grace? ” The doctor enters the room and breaks me out of the trance.

“ As usual, Doctor. ” I whisper, t

    GraceAnticipation makes me restless. The tension wraps around us, holding us together in this strange, charged moment. Tristin’s arms are tight around me, making sure that I feel every crevice of his hard muscle in my soft curves. His warmth seeps into me, making it impossible to ignore the growing desire simmering just beneath the surface.For a while, we just lie there, drowning in the heavy silence. The night we spent together plays in my mind like a haunting reel. The way his hands traced my skin. Passionate, intense, wild.The intensity in his eyes. Smoldering, hot, electric.The overwhelming, silent connection between us. It felt like our bodies fit together, and I was pulled under the surface, forgetting about everything in the world but him.I had never felt something like that before—sensations so intoxicating they steal your breath and leave you wanting for more. I shift slightly in his hold. The small movement feels like a wrong move, but I am burning.Tristin’s grip t

    GraceThe intensity of his voice leaves me breathless. What am I going to do with him? I open my mouth and just breathe, his breath mingling with mine.His hand sneaks down, slipping inside my hospital trousers and his fingers rub my folds—so wet and warm for him already.“ Tell me you are wet because you want a quick fuck and not because you desperately want me inside you. ” Two fingers slide between my entrance and his thumb rubs small circles on my clit, his eyes still staring into my soul, watching as my lips part and I moan at the sensation.I still have a chance. I need to pull those fingers out of me, and replace them with his— No. I reach up, touching his face, feeling the warmth of his skin. Yes.“ Tristin… ” I whisper, pleasure hitting my body, making me shudder again.He cuts me off with another kiss, this one softer, more tender.Our clothes feel like a barrier, a separation that needs to be gone. Before I can register what I am doing, my hands are already working on

    Grace“ I am going to make you feel good. Hm? ” Tristin’s voice whispers in my ear, seeking the consent he always does, his hands lingering on my hips gently.“ Hmm. ” I hum and breathe heavily. I moan, as his fingers move between my folds, drawing small circles on my clit. His rough fingers press into my core gently and slowly lead me toward an orgasm.I gasp, my body curling into his front as I struggle to pry my eyes open.“ What…what are you doing so early in the morning, Tristin? ” I murmur, snuggling into the crook of his neck.This feels so good. I gasp, as he pinches my clit and sends me over the edge. The slow, lazy pleasure has me writhing and clinging to his body as he continues to rub teasing circles between my folds.“ I am giving you a demo of what your mornings will be like with me. ” Tristin hums, kissing the top of my head.Heat spreads in my cheeks. I sigh, fighting the smile threatening to pull at my lips.“ I prefer tasting you though, but I don’t want to do that

    Grace“ Have I ever hurt you before, Grace? ”I sit up straight and just sigh again.Alma shakes her head and takes a seat in the chair Tristin vacated. She places the basket on the bedside table and turns to me.Her posture is rigid as she starts.“ I see that you didn’t follow through. ”“ What? ” I clench my hands into fists.I feel a sense of shame after coming across her and then there is a part of me struggling to not bring up the video and tell her that I feel bad.“ You didn’t fulfill your promise. I didn’t take you for one to go back on your word. ” Alma whispers quietly. My heart sinks. I broke my promise to her. The sense of shame and guilt grows some more. “ I am sorry for not keeping my promise, Alma. Trust me, I wanted to…I tried my best. And I didn’t mean to disrespect you. ” I admit truthfully, hoping that my words will soothe whatever anger she feels towards me.Alma’s eyes droop and the usual polite look displays in them. “ It’s not just about promises, Grace.

    Grace“ Uhm… ” Celine stands in front of the door, her nervous eyes scanning the room, lingering on Tristin, and then landing on me. “ Am I disturbing— ”“ No. ” I force a smile on my lips. “ You came just in time. I am getting discharged today. ”I heard that she got discharged three days ago and Tristin arranged for her to stay at a hotel. Given that she has no passport and we were literally shipped into this country illegally, she has no choice but to stick with Tristin’s plans for now.And I feel bad. It’s all because of me that she has to go through all this.“ Oh, that’s great news. ” Celine smiles widely but that gesture falters when her gaze meets Tristin’s stoic face.I murmur under my breath. “ stop scaring her. ”“ Am I? ” Tristin says, still staring at her but a cryptic smile creeps up his lips. “ Am I scaring you Ms. Vitana? ”“ N—No. ” Celine stutters, shifting her weight from one foot to another.“ Tristin. ” I sigh and rub my temples.What does he have against her?Is

    TristinFuck, Fuck, Fuck no!What the fuck do I do now?I pace back and forth, panic settling into my bones.Earlier, I took Grace back to our penthouse and helped her settle in. She was all quiet and compliant, not saying a word or asking about what will happen with that obsessive Ethan situation now. It fucking melted my heart but the stabbing pain started spreading again as soon as I told her that I have matters to take care of and left for my office.Now, I can’t help my nerves. I made a mistake. A grave fucking mistake. To make sure that Grace helped me in my elaborate scheme of revenge, I showed her fake pictures and lied to her that Ethan had been cheating on her for a long time.He was an asshole to her. An abusive piece of shit who hit her, liked to make her cry, and killed their child. He did everything to make her walk away from his life and for that, I consider him the biggest fucking idiot in the world.But now, I am on the verge of getting pushed down the same rabbit

    GraceThe soft glow of candlelight bathes the elegant dining table, casting a warm glow over Tristin’s face.Tristin has chosen a cozy restaurant with a view of the city lights, and it feels like the perfect setting for our first date because I have never visited this place before. We are sitting across from each other, and for the first time in a while, I feel a sense of peace.I admire the city view while Tristin’s eyes remain on me, causing my cheeks to heat up every time I have to look at him. I haven’t felt this giddy in a long time and it is making me dizzy. Tristin looks relaxed, almost too relaxed as if he is trying hard to make the evening perfect. His efforts show…but the way he keeps moving cutlery around once in a while gives away some kind of unease.As we start our meal, he speaks up for the first time. “ Do you like it here, Little Butterfly? ” I chew on the juicy piece of steak in my mouth and nod quickly. “ It’s…perfect. ”“ You won’t mind coming here with me ever

    GraceI stare at him for a moment, then avert my gaze to the city view. The lights are still twinkling and everything seems so bright under the dark night but the beauty I saw in this view before is gone.Maybe, it was not even about the view.When Tristin was here, even the simple arrangement of the table seemed out of the ordinary.“ He gave you these pictures. ” Ethan speaks up when I don’t say anything for a long time.I glance at the pictures he has placed on the table and they are the same that Tristin showed me.“ How did you get your hands on— ”“ They are fake. ” Ethan says, his voice dropping.A cold shiver runs along my spine and I stop myself from shuddering in front of Ethan. “ Some convincing poses, right? ” Ethan runs his forefinger down his face on one of the pictures. I look up, and meet his gaze. “ what’s the point of it, Ethan? ” “ Do you not get it or are you pretending to be dumb? ” His eyes darken, and he pushes the pictures towards me.But I don’t take them.

    GraceSeb’s breath grows steady, his body soft and warm against mine as he drifts off to sleep. I hold him close a moment longer, feeling the rise and fall of his tiny chest. A fragile sense of peace settles over us.I rise from the couch slowly, careful not to wake him, and tuck him into bed. His small fist curls into the soft blanket as I smooth it over him. Just as I turn around, my breath catches in my throat.Tristin is leaning against the doorway, one shoulder pressed to the frame, his arms crossed. His eyes find mine with a quiet intensity that sends heat rushing to my cheeks.“ You are back… ” He says, his voice low and husky. I swallow hard and nod. “ I am back. ”The silence between us stretches. My heartbeat quickens, and memories swirl inside my head—his rough hands on my skin, his harsh mouth claiming me, the weight of his body. The air thickens with everything unspoken.Tristin’s gaze flickers, a subtle shift of emotion I can’t name. “ I thought you would stay and see y

    Grace“ Mommy, I missed you! ” My son snuggles into my neck.He has been clinging to me since I came back unannounced. Now, I know my baby has one more similarity with his Daddy. He only pretends to be fine when I am away. It makes me reflect back on all the times when I was not there for Seb. Sighing, I kiss the side of his head and pull him in my lap.“ I missed you too, Baby. ” He grins, his cute two front teeth showing, before he wraps his small arms around my neck and hangs there. My heart melts. No matter what I am going through in life…Having my son cling to me can make it all better.“ Did you listen to Grandma? ” I ask, stroking his hair.“ Yes. I did. ” He nods, leaving my neck and sliding down my lap to settle on the couch beside me.I notice the sudden change and look down at his face to see him staring at his hands. An invisible, cold hand grips my heart.“ What’s wrong, Seb? ” I stroke his hair, fixing a few strands that have fallen on his forehead.“ You said…you wi

    Grace“ I just saw the way he looked at her when I went to meet him. Doesn’t take a genius to guess what’s going on. I thought I should let you know… as a gesture of…goodwill. ” Ethan’s voice lightens, a playful lilt to it. The audacity he has…It will never fail to baffle me.I turn to face him. “ Tristin is not you, Ethan. Send a million beautiful women his way, and he won’t look at any of them the way you are trying to make me think he does. But you? ”I shift my weight from one leg to another as he watches me with all his attention. He lifts his brows, silently urging me to continue.“ You lose your mind over every woman who says ‘I love you’ to you because you…you are not a man, Ethan. You are an insecure little boy who wants to feel loved. But the truth? You are…so disgusting that no woman can actually love you after knowing the real you ” I snicker, noticing the look in his eyes.Judging from the way his jaw clenches and his hand turns into tight fists…I have hit the mark.“

    Grace“ This deal can’t go through, Mr. Renaud. It requires a long stay here and I can’t stay for that long. I have family back home, and I need to return immediately. ” I state my reason, and keep my gaze steady on him. “ I apologize for the sudden notice, but it will be better if you start looking for other companies. ”“ Mrs. Roberto… ” He looks at me, and then at Ethan as if silently asking him what to do.My lips stretch into a smirk. Of course. This is all Ethan’s setup. A trap to get me to stay away from my family and get close to him. He wants to strike me when I am already vulnerable. He thinks I will return to him if I am cornered.But he doesn’t understand. After my whole life turned upside down, Tristin…held it together…and if I lose him too, then I will never love another man. And even if someday I find the courage to move forward, it won’t be with Ethan. There is nothing that can ever happen between us.“ This is not very professional of you, Grace. Backing out after

    GraceWhen I wake up in the morning, Tristin is gone. I shoot up in bed, and look around but don’t find him anywhere.A strange fear fills me and claws its way up my throat. Did he leave me here alone?In a hurry, I reach for my phone on the floor but before I can dial his number, my gaze falls on the note placed on the side table.I grab it and stare at the message he has left me. —Fred needs to be taken care of, or it will become a problem. I have to go, but I am leaving Luca behind. Stick close to him, and don’t go anywhere alone. Swallowing the bile rising to my throat, I sit on the edge of the bed and turn the note around. The note is written in such a serious tone. It lacks Tristin’s usual smiley.I place it back on the table and look at the floor. My shoulders droop. He has not really gotten over what he saw. Ethan didn’t sleep with me, but I was in bed with him—Naked, with marks all over me. It won’t be easy for Tristin and I to put that past us. But…I am determined to put

    GraceRelief creeps in slowly, but it doesn’t stay. Panic follows, threatening to drown me. I lift my gaze to Tristin’s face, my voice breaking. “ Is—Is that why you came to me? Is that why you slept with me? Because you know…Ethan didn’t…sleep with…me? ”His frown deepens, and I try to slip back on the bed, but he is faster. Tristin rolls to my side and wraps his arms around me. His grip tightens around me, holding me firm. His chest presses against mine, steady and warm, before he rests his forehead against mine. His breath is ragged.Tears blur my vision. I hate how easily they come now. One slips down my cheek before I can stop it. “ You didn’t care…” I whisper, my voice trembling with hurt. “ You didn’t care what this did to me. How it broke me. You only care if Ethan touched what’s yours. You left me alone when I needed you and you didn’t…care… ”Tristin sighs. He brushes a kiss over my damp cheek as if that could make this better. “ I was angry because he touched you. Beca

    Grace“ Grace— ”“ Don’t call me that. ” I interrupt and press my forehead against his chest before his glare burns a hole into me. “ Please don’t start calling me that now. I hate it…but it’s true that I have had a very bad experience before, Tristin, and every time a problem arises, or you stop calling me by the nickname…I get scared. I can’t help it. It’s…rooted in my head that I am useless, that I am not worthy of anything good and… ”Before I can continue, Tristin grabs my hair, tilts my head back, and slams his lips over mine. I gasp, my breath whooshing out of my lungs. He doesn’t push his tongue in my mouth, but he presses our lips together so hard that a shudder runs down my spine. “ I love you. ” He pulls back and breathes. “ If I wanted an heiress, I would have married one. If I wanted someone else, I would have married someone else, Little Butterfly. But I married you. Because…you are you. And I love you for who you are. ”“ What is there to love— ”“ If you are going to

    Grace“ Pathetic…isn’t it? ” Tristin drawls, his hand caressing my thigh as he continues to move on that easy rhythm, slowly bringing pleasure instead of rushing it. “ Pathetic because you don’t want to hurt me? ” My hand reaches for his face, fingers brushing his cheek.“ Pathetic because…you can say and do things to hurt me but I can’t do the same. ” He grunts, his eyes growing half-lidded with pleasure.I lick my lips, feeling the waves of pleasure hitting me in soothing waves. “ I…never want to hurt you, Tristin. I love you. ”“ And how many times have you really said it in our three years of marriage? ” He rolls his eyes, his pace picking up as we draw near ecstasy—a pleasure tinged with pain. “ it’s always been me. I move around you like a dog who is eager to wag his tail at someone who doesn’t give a damn about him. ”“ Don’t say that. ” I cup his cheek, my brows furrowing. “ I…am sorry. I love you. I can…say it every day. I will—I will make sure to— ”His lips press on mine b

    Grace“ Sore? ” He rasps against my ear as I lie curled up on my side, my back facing him.I don’t know how many times we have done it. After he took me from behind, he turned me on my back and had his way with me again. Then, he laid me down flat on my stomach and kept driving in and out until I was begging him to stop.I never knew he had this side to him. He has always been so sweet and gentle and nice, always putting me first whenever we are in bed.“ On a scale of one to ten, how sore are you? ” Tristin asks when I don’t reply.My throat feels scratched after screaming so much and my legs ache as if they are going to fall off any moment. And my insides? I think something is rubbed raw in there, burning and satiated at the same time.I grumble under my breath. “ Hundred. ”“ Good. ” He whispers right away, and his hand grabs my bare hip to pull me back into him.“ Are you not done yet?! ” I scream before I can stop myself, my breaths growing labored again.I feel like crying becau
