At that Moment all that Daniel had at the back of his mind were two things, one had to be the fact that he still was having a hard time processing the nightmare and the other, well the other was facing his fears.He was confused about what wanted, one part of his mind slowly accepting the fact that he already lost her and the other still wanted to fight for the heart of the woman he thought that he was in love with. At that moment his mind had gone back to the conversation he had with Anna.“Rose, we need to speak." He muttered after Anna was long gone .If there was anything that he hated it was the fact that this woman was drunk, he didn't know how to get his mind away from that fact but as he stood with his hands to the back as she looked at him curiously with her eyes that were far from being at that moment her mind was void lacking the right things to think about at that moment, Rose was drunk and if he should try to talk with her he was certain it was a waste of time. Shoul
DANIEL I arrived at the spot a bit late as it was. I was doing all that was necessary in handing over the company to him, rather than agreeing I was expecting that I would be able to get him to change his mind but it was difficult as my friend for a long time seemed unbothered. It took one look from him over to the sea of faces that had come with me laughing. I had to wonder what had come over him, why so much change.“I thought it was my friend." I muttered clasping my hands… I could feel myself burning up and necessarily all I needed at that moment was a sense of belief that everything was fine.Instead what it seemed like he was at that moment was a friend with no empathy.." You don't have to feel mad about this, it is all I wanted all this while. “I thought it through and wondered why I had given myself to this man that had ruined my business, or at least a part of it.I had trusted him with my life and this, it made me reflect on things differently — was this how she felt
ROSEALL that was happening rather crazy, still there was no way to stop it as it felt as though I was addicted to this man and there was nothing I could do about it. It left in my mind a thousand questions yet one constantly filled it out. If I really wanted this, then I had to get away. It was all happening to fast, faster than my heart heavily beat could take_Yet I was left there confused even as I paced around still looking for how best to understand the entire situation, If there was anything for me to think about at the back of my mind it was the fact that this, my feeling had to be dealt with..As it was, it looked like we were back together again and everything was under control but my fear was all of this dying out again and burning out again till it was nothing, till I had nothing left in my heart.I could feel all his desperation and it pushed me away. I had felt this few days going up so much that I had forgotten to think about Crazy this man could be and how dangerou
CHAPTER 142DANIELMy pulse beat in my throat as her hand's spread warmth deep in my soul, when I noticed her leaning in, brushing her face against my hair I averted my lips.I was still bent on leaving but at that moment she wouldn't let me, it all started with a gentle tug and soon I was right there with her , it felt strange rolling between the sheet but at that moment other thoughts had freed my mind as she kisses me .My heart skittered to a stop as she straddled my legs, I rolled my eyes knowing what was coming again— It was the one thing that flawed the beauty of the moment.Aside the pride that seemed to consume us.from deep within, there was this one thing I couldn't get rid of and it was my lust.I held my breath when her hand rested on my crotch, and watched as her grip tightenedas she pulled my manhood. Soon we were entangled with each other, I could feel her moans with each one of my thrust, I had a strange feeling that I'd probably regret this but at that moment
CHAPTER 143Daniel pov I patiently waited outside to see Rose but she wasn't coming out. I felt like I was going to lose it. Soon, she came out of the house but immediately she saw me, she turned to go back inside but I was quick enough to catch up with her. “Rose please…let's talk” I grabbed her wrist “What is it?” She asked. Her eyes were devoid of the slightest emotion “Please, I want us to talk this time. I want us to sort…” “Can't you see it? There's nothing to sort out, not even the tiniest thing Daniel. I don't want to ever see you!” Her eyes widened like a wounded lion. I tightened my hand around her wrist, my heart kept racing like I was going to die any moment from now. "Rose, please just hear me out. I know I've made mistakes, but I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make things right between us. Let me make amends please"She angrily jerked her hand away from my grip, her eyes held nothing but pure hatred. "What do you think of me? A house
CHAPTER 144Daniel ' POV I called her best friend Anna over to the house. He was like the only person I could talk to about the things that were bothering me and the fight I had with my wife was really bothering me. While we were sitting at the dining table, sipping some wine, Anna asked me, "When you asked me to come.over, your voice sounded really urgent and I was scared something terrible must have happened. I come rushing down and you're looking a mess. What's the problem, my friend? I don't think I have ever seen you this way."I sighed deeply, before looking up to face my friend. "Anna, I think my marriage is about to be over," I replied. A confused look appeared on her face. "What do you mean by that? What is going on? Talk to me, Daniel," Anna said. "Rose and I had a terrible fight and that fight just puts our marriage on the edge. I don't know if we can recover from it. I'm so scared; I don't want to lose my wife. I don't want to lose the woman I love so much," I answe
Rose povI sat behind my sleek desk, completely emersed in the work I was doing on my laptop. My fingers moved swiftly as I directed my secretary about an upcoming meeting, my mind was wrapped around the work I was doing. The television in my office was on a medium volume and I could hear what was being said. The reporter was giving news on government-related stuff and honestly, none of that was my business. My eyes darted to the TV immediately I heard Daniel's name. He was going about his philanthropist behavior again and I scoffed “Yeah so that's all for today also, arrange a meeting with Mr. Alfredo,” I said and she nodded before leaving the office. Once my secretary left, the mention of Daniel lingered in my mind. Although I pretended not to be interested, his name stirred the emotions I'd been hiding with work. During our last meeting yesterday, how I left him outside and how much it hurt came rushing down on me. I suddenly felt my hands shaking willingly. *Flashb
CHAPTER 146READER'S POV Daniel refused to believe that his ex-wife, Rose, was pregnant. He wanted to believe that her best friend was just pulling his legs and nothing more but Rose kept on saying the same thing.“I would never lie about this Daniel…” She went on and on trying to convince him but she was interrupted by eager and confused Daniel.“But if she is, why is it that she did not tell me? I mean even though we have our differences I have the right to be aware of this.” Daniel explained. Now, with his fingers on his right hand invading the space on his head as he played with his hair trying to calm down.Rose nodded before she eventually spoke, “Remember what I said earlier? That I do not even want to speak with you or even see your face but I had no other choice but to shove my emotions away and do the needful by informing you. If my best friend is pissed and blinded by her emotions, I have to stand in the gap for her and do the needful. It is up to you to set things right.”
170.ROSEWatching him with his son painted the most beautiful picture for any woman, and he looked so perfect regardless of whatever I had thought. Being with him meant I had to deal with a lot, now the man was not one perfect… You know, no one ever is, but still the past they say is the past.So when he had popped the question right there with the nurses watching, when he had asked that I be his wife again… My answer has been Yes. I didn't just go all the way to make the decision for nothing, as I had said it came with a lot of benefits, what I didn't say was that I had to deal with a lot of his mess, that was what loving someone is all about anyways … Dealing with the lapses and all.He looked to be quite aware of his attitude and didn't look to make a big fuss about it , perhaps he could sense that I was putting a lot into dealing with him as well and was doing what could be done to make it more accommodating for me.Regardless, I was living in this strange new world at the ba
ROSELooking past this man a long trail of air trickled in through the open door, drifting through the room for a minute or two before settling with that restless haste, at that moment my mind was drifting through different things at that moment with most having to do with a way to get over the situation that was pending at the moment, the more I tried to understand all that was going on that moment, the more my soul was filled with that feeling of uncertainty.At first, it was starting to look like he could be right, it had been three days since I walked Anna out of my house and at the moment, I was standing in her living room, with sounds of moans filling the air amidst the heavy scent of sex .It was obvious what was going on and I didn't have the need to be informed what it was all about, it was easy to tell because I had just watched her go in with Marcus of all people twenty minutes ago… I thought to myself if that was what he wanted to tell me all along. I blinked my eyes, m
ROSEThere were many things I couldn't get myself to do at that moment and the most definite one was finding answers to all that was going through the situation at that moment. I was still angry about the entire situation as it seemed blank at the back of my mind. Much as I tried not to think about it, it still felt crazy that I couldn't do anything or scream out in frustration.Still deep down in my soul, I could feel that regrettable feeling. In a way I didn't know where all the feelings from me were sprouting from but if there was anything I wanted it was to leave as fast as I could.Well all that happened yesterday, the wind blew throughout the room as it left me rather confused -Thought if him crept through my mind again, still beneath all of this was that question that remained yet unansweredMy mind went back tinted by the entire event yet again, I had lain in bed for a long minute, what was happening through all of this. In a way I found myself asking over and over again
CHAPTER 167ROSE“What are you doing? “That had been the first question that I had on my lips-He merely looked at me with his gaze saying a thousand things at that moment, I couldn't say what was happening but still with his heart racing wildly it was easy to say that he was definitely up to something." I looked at him blankly again.” My attention was drawn to where he had touched me earlier and I could swear that it still burned.Everything about the moment did, while expecting that he did speak , he didn't instead he merely looked at me while still locking his gaze in."I just need to tell you that there is a need for you to be careful.” He muttered. “Be careful about your friend Anna. “I was so confused about everything that was going on that I couldn't decipher all that was going on at that moment.What could this be about?Why did he want me to be careful about her? Much as all this was going through my mind enough that all I did was roll my eyes.“Fine I had listened to you
Rose All that was happening made it hard for me to comprehend at that moment, still all this while It was still hard to comprehend why I am still not able to get him to understand that it would be hard to forget all that had happened.The past left a bitter feeling at the back of my mind, while still trying to comprehend all that was going my phone buzzed and I Picked it up immediately.“Where are you at?" I asked immediately.Anna seemed to be hiding something as she seemed usually quiet -“Is there something you want to tell me?" Anna muttered and I found myself thinking of why she had asked.For me it most definitely had to be for a subtle reason, one that left me in a daze still pondering about the situation.“No, I am just here … why did you ask?”While still running through all the entirety of what to say at that moment, I tried again to play through the entire situation at the back of my mind."What are you doing throughout the rest of tomorrow.”I was still trying to get thro
DANIELLife pulls some strings and you are just left at times behind trying to figure out what to do, such is that that I had found myself, I was left in the past leaving Right there amidst the damages I had brought upon myself.Perhaps this same reason was why she would never trust me again, when they say good things they say come in little packages at the moment that was the case of something I had taken for granted.I wasn't shocked seeing him walk into the pub,matter of fact my spilling my drink had nothing to do with Marcus at that moment, i was shocked about the woman he was with -It was funny in a way how I chose to perceive how intellectual she had to be all this whole while for being the last person we'd suspect all this while, for the first time that evening I wouldn't deny having that smile on my face.Only this time it wasn't because I was happy, rather I was damn shocked! The smile was there when the bartender had walked to where I was , while still thinking of what t
DANIELAn Intruder of my heart, that was the best way of phrase to qualify this woman that looked so radiating at that my moment, I couldn't tell what she was talking about at that moment.One moment we were having the best moment of our life and in the next she was all angry over a reason I didn't even know -“Are you fine." I asked again when she had Stepped out .She looked at me like she didn’t expect that I would ask her that question, she seemed most definately shocked at that moment, while still trying to get the thought of everything out of my mind.The atmosphere had completely changed since that past moment, here I was still trying all I could to play through the incident again, wondering how I could play through the incident again at the back of my mind -“I am fine, I just want some time to myself." She muttered through the entire incident at that moment.In a way, her scent had filled my nostrils and they got me fascinated about her. Her scent troubled my heart enough tha
ROSEIn the heat of the moment , I could feel my heart bleeding, here I was with a bleeding hand yet nothing was at the back of my mind, rather than how it felt to have him so close to me,was I getting Crazier!I stopped and pulled myself away. At that moment it made no sense doing this to anyone as I felt unreasonably cheap, or wasn't I.He stares at me trying to read the situation but then I was from it, while all I seeked was sanity it didn't help that all of this were happening -All of a sudden I could feel everything coming back to the my head, it was that moment that I had to pick between being cheap or just-“Step away from me." I pushed back at him, forcing out a grunt as I didI couldn't even look into his eyes to say those Words, I could feel the pain though … That bot of pain from my hands but there and then.When I did look up at him he appeared rather flushed at my actions with a smirk coming to his face as he blinked his eyes looking at me. " I can't understand what is
ROSEWill these good things last forever, it was definitely the last thought that had filled my mind as I tossed and turned on the bed, somehow my mind was still left heavy after all that had happened the previous day and I was still seeking a way out of it at that moment.While I couldn't make out how the night had gone especially after those few last moment after dinner, one thing was obvious and that was the fact that we were together, in other words I was at his apartment -I could feel it from how the room felt so warm and the fact that his scent filled the room, to make this more certain, I had turned and right there he was. That morning all I got while looking at him was this continuous round of disturbing taps at the back of my mind, it was surprising.in a way that after all this while, he still made my heart race, at the same time the feeling was welcome.At first after those first few minutes after I had woken up with a vision was still blurry, it was hard to make out the
