Divorced before Marriage: The Forbidden Affair Chapter 11
"Delaney Duncan..." The calm voice recited the name for the fourth time, running his fingers around the edges of the file containing her credentials which sat on his exotic executive table at his mercy. How interesting.It was another typical 'office' day for him as he busied himself with his schedules for the day. But when he encountered a worthy distraction, he quickly paused to pay attention to it.He smiled at the file he held in hand, satisfaction easing through him. He hadn't lost her totally after all. In fact, he would see her more often than she'd ever imagined because she would get the job she'd applied for on a platter of gold.A wide smile played across his face one more time as he picked up the intercom. "Send an email to Delaney Duncan. She's the most qualified for the job. I'd like to have her interviewed personally. Schedule a meeting immediately." His monotone voice instructed his secretary before dropping the call without waiting for a response.'So, we meet again af

The morning sun cast a radiant glow in the small kitchen where Delaney hurriedly prepared breakfast for Blaine.Today felt different, unlike every other morning. There was a shift in the atmosphere, and it stemmed from Blaine's recent change in behavior. He had been kinder to her in the past two days. He's been happier, always talking about work and some promotions he'd been promised, and Delaney was delighted... At least, so she thought.The recent turn of events left her puzzled. Adonis possessed more than enough evidence to condemn Blaine to a lifetime behind bars, yet he seemed to be treating him well, promising promotions and a salary increase. It simply didn't make sense. "Murphy's law... If your attack is going too well, it means you've walked into an ambush.""What is he up to?" Delaney pondered, arranging the table for breakfast."Hey, babe," Blaine called out, approaching her. "Something smells amazing," he teased, eagerly settling into his seat, ready to devour the meal."O

Delaney sat on the couch in the living room, feeling restless and scared. She thought of a thousand things that could go wrong with this decision she had just made. There was no faking it; she was scared of the unknown.Delaney had mastered the art of pretense, putting on a façade of confidence and boldness in public. But this situation was beyond her control. She couldn't simply fake her way out of it. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't shake off the nagging thought that Adonis was a stranger to her. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't help but think he might harm her or do something bad to her.Adonis was a man of few words. Despite his fame and accomplishments, he remained an enigma to those around him. His mysterious nature added to the air of uncertainty surrounding him."Oh, God, how did I end up here?" Delaney whimpered, feeling overwhelmed by the weight of her decision.She remained dressed in her flowery flair gown from earlier, not in the mood for fashion or a

Her eyes welled up as she ran towards the door, trying to unlock it, but it was all futile. The door only opens when Adonis wants it to. "Let me out! I just want to leave, please," She pleaded, tears already streaming down her cheeks. She was scared of the man in front of her. He was different from the Adonis she knew. This man standing here had an expression and aura that suffocated her. He looked scary and unfeeling. She wondered about all the terrible things he could do to her. With long strides, he moved over to where she stood, shaking like a scared child, and grabbed her by her arm. "You think you can run away from me?" His deep blue eyes bore a grim expression. "Sooner than you think, I will make you all mine, Dela."He pulled her to the bed and flung her on it. "I won't harm you, Dela." His voice was low, laced with a hint of sincerity, but Delaney didn't care at that point. Without stress, he held her right hand firmly, cuffing it to the bedboard with the handcuffs he had

Delaney's tender body trembled under his muscular frame as he rocked her passionately. Her body danced in the sweet rhythm his chiseled frame produced. The moment of intense pleasure she felt brought back memories of the other night. She had missed this feeling. She had always wondered when she'd ever experience such a raw sensation after that night. Blaine had never given her as much as the tiniest satisfaction she'd ever desired. This was pure temptation, and she prayed for the strength to overcome it after this weekend.Delaney's moans filled the room as waves of ecstasy coarse through her entire body. She willingly gave in to the sins of the moment. 'Guilt can come later,' she thought. To Adonis, it was a dream come through. He never believed this day would finally come. A day he'd finally have the object of his earnest desires laying bare under his body again while he devoured her with every sense of hunger he'd harbored all these years. A day he'd make her feel the weight of

His eyes held a certain coldness that paralyzed her. Her blood ran cold, and the thumping of her heart increased. "What are you talking about? You promised you wouldn't hurt him! You promised!" Her eyes welled up, reflecting disappointment and hurt. "I lied, Dela." He moved closer to her. "I really wish you could see through me. I love you so much, and I wish you could feel the same way towards me." A ball of sweat trickled down his temple. 'Gosh! Why am I so nervous around her?' There was a brief silence between them. Delaney took in deep breaths, trying to calm her nerves down. "Adonis, we had a deal, and you can't go back on your words." She held his gaze for a moment. There was a hint of sadness and sincerity in the depths of his eyes. Something that ignited a certain warmth in her. Deep within this cold man, there was something more... A yearning for someone to love, someone to call his own. It was evident in the way he looked at her, but she was in the valley of indecision.

Delaney stirred lightly from her slumber, struggling to open her eyes. She felt like sleeping some more but was too hungry to force herself back to sleep. She needed to get something to eat quickly, or she might starve to death.Her long lashes lazily fluttered open, her eyes blinking rapidly to adjust to the room's brightness. The sun was already up.She turned to the other side of the huge bed, but it was empty. She listened carefully to know if he was in the bathroom, but the entire place was pretty quiet.She jerked up immediately, her eyes scanning the large room for any sign of him, but she was all alone."Where is he?" she wondered, weakly forcing herself out of bed.She felt sore and tired. Her body ached terribly. She desperately needed a massage. Immediately, images from last night settled in her mind, making her smile shyly. Delaney had felt like this would be the worst weekend of her life, but Alas, she was wrong. This was the best weekend she'd ever had in her entire lif

Delaney hesitated to answer the call when Kaiden had called, but now she was glad she did. He found a way to make her smile after all the drama that had ensued.“He texted me some minutes ago. Adonis must have forgotten that we are birds of the same feathers,” he chucked darkly.“For my sake, Kaiden, just let him be. Pay no attention to him. I’ll talk to him about our trip when he’s calm. Okay?” She pleaded. “I am sorry this had to happen. It’s all because of me.” Sadness laced her voice.Delaney had been blaming everything on herself. Maybe she should have ensured she reached Adonis before embarking on the trip.“Don’t say that, pretty. I don’t want you taking the blame.” He was so calm and collected that it surprised her.A few minutes later, Kaiden was already making her giggle like a high school teenager. She drew in a deep breath as she was already beginning to forget all that had happened some moments ago.*Adonis screeched his car to a stop with such force that the tires left

The afternoon sun was low in the sky, making the upscale neighbourhood where Delaney lived look golden. Adonis had been waiting impatiently in the shadows, every nerve in his body on high alert. The sight of Kaiden’s sleek black car pulling up in front of Delaney’s building was all the provocation he needed. His heart raced, consumed by a potent mix of jealousy, rage, and possessiveness.Every muscle in Adonis’s body tensed up. The pent-up anger, jealousy, and anxiety from the previous day now had a direct outlet, and he found himself taking quick steps downstairs before he even fully processed the decision. The door to Delaney’s front door flew open with a sharp bang, revealing a visibly agitated Adonis. He walked as fast as his legs could carry him, approaching Kaiden’s car.“What was Kaiden thinking to have stepped foot into this environment after all he did?” Adonis thought as his anger grew even worse.Kaiden, who was just stepping out of the driver’s seat, barely had time to

The morning light streamed in, casting a soft glow on the hotel room's luxurious interiors. Golden rays warmed the crisp white sheets of the bed, where Delaney slowly stirred from her slumber. The realization of the previous night's events came flooding her mind like a slowly developing photograph, revealing images and sensations that caused her heart to race. She felt a tinge of embarrassment.Blinking rapidly against the brightness of the room, she suddenly became aware of Kaiden's heavy gaze on her. She sat up immediately, brushing her disheveled hair off her face.Memories of their shared vulnerability, the unexpected kiss, the intertwining of fingers, the whispered moans; all these hung in the air like notes of a lingering melody.Delaney's heart fluttered with a mix of anxiety and an unfamiliar warmth. She could feel the flush creeping up her neck, tinting her cheeks like a soft rose. She swallowed, her voice barely above a whisper when she finally spoke, "Kaiden..." She mutte

"I need to make a call... Let me have my phone, please." Delaney, in her drunk state, said to Kaiden, who prevented her from taking her phone. Delaney, who was usually so composed and assured, was a different person tonight. The alcohol, which she had taken to calm her nerves, had taken a greater hold on her than she'd expected. It had loosened her inhibitions, causing a vulnerability to shine through that Kaiden had never seen before. Her emotions were raw and at the surface."You can call him tomorrow, Delaney. You are in no state to make calls at the moment." He said, concern etched on his face.He instantly regretted letting her have that much to drink. She had said a lot of things in her drunken state and it got him so emotional. Kaiden realised Delaney had been through a lot of shit and he wished above all things that he could be given the opportunity to take care of her.Kaiden knew his friend, Adonis. He knew Adonis could never change. He was so certain Adonis would break Del

On his way home, Adonis couldn't stop himself from feeling worried. He kept calling Delaney, but he still got no response from her. He felt uneasy.His sleek car pulled up to the entrance of Delaney's lavish residence, a modern structure with expansive, sweeping windows that contrasted the aged oaks and well-manicured gardens surrounding it.As soon as the car came to a stop in the large compound, he was greeted by the security personnel whom he had kept to mount the gate - a broad-shouldered man named Jared.The two had exchanged pleasantries several times in the past, but tonight, Adonis's demeanor was different—focused, with an underlying urgency.He had totally forgotten to call Jared earlier to ask after Delaney. He would have been in the best position to tell him what was going on."Good day, sir." Jared, the security personnel, greeted him.He couldn't fight the urge to ask after her, even though he could just walk into the house and find out."Jared," He turned towards him, "h

The room was dim and heavy with the sad smell of air that hadn't been refreshed and sheets that hadn't been cleaned.The curtains were only partly open, trying to block out the brightness of the world and making the room look slightly bluish.There were empty containers of food and crumpled tissues scattered on the floor. In the middle of the room, under a messy blanket, Blaine lay almost lifeless. He looked nothing like the man he used to be. The thought of Delaney hunted him.A sharp knock on the door jolted him out of his reverie. His heartbeat quickened. Was it Delaney? He hurried downstairs like his life depended on it and opened the door without hesitation. His heart sank when he laid his eyes on the figure in front of him."Mum? What are you doing here?" He asked frustratedly."I decided to come see you since you swore never to pick my calls." Tamara's sharp eyes took in his disheveled appearance and the state of the apartment when she walked in. She shook her head in utter di

Delaney tossed restlessly on the large bed, as her puffy eyes flickered open, staring weakly at the sun rays that filtered into the room. It was already midday. She was in no mood for work that day. She had to call in sick. She hoped Kaiden understood with her. He wasn't exactly happy about it. With a pair of sore eyes that had spilled out more tears than she could ever imagine she had, she wiped off her tear-stain eyes and made her way to the bathroom.Delaney had spent two nights crying. She thought this was supposed to make her feel less guilty about her affair with Adonis, but it hurt her instead. It hurt to know that Velda had been the other woman all along.Her phone beeped, and she took a glance at it. It was Blaine. He'd been calling and texting since the other night. He can go fuck himself.As soon as she was done from the bathroom, she laid back down on the bed. Today was all about mourning her life.Suddenly, her phone lit up again, and this time, she was determined to pi

"I didn't mean to make you feel this way. But I felt you had to know the truth, Dela." Adonis said, feeling remorseful when he saw how miserable Delaney looked."I know I am not a saint, Adonis. But... My sins weren't this bad. I loved Blaine with my whole heart." She sniffed. "He did this to me, even when he knows all I've been through at the hands of that lady and her mother.""What do you mean, Delaney?" Adonis got interested in the conversation. He moved closer to her, paying rapt attention to what she had to say."Velda is my stepsister, Adonis." More tears streamed down her face. "I have been through torture from my supposed family." She choked on her tears.Adonis was speechless. "Shhhhh..." He pulled her to himself. "You can talk to me about it some other time if you don't feel okay talking about it now." He encouraged her.Delaney was in no state to tell the story of her life. She was in shock and pain. Adonis felt his heart shatter. This explains it all. It explains the sadn

It was already getting late, and Blaine's worry was reaching another level. It was almost 10 pm, and Delaney was still not home, nor was she reachable.He considered so many possibilities. Was she safe? Had she finally left him? He felt like he was going insane. The thought of calling the police crossed his mind, but it was too early to report her as a missing person.He didn't even know how to start looking for her at a friend's place or anywhere else. He didn't know any of her acquaintances. He had neglected her that much and now felt sad so about it.Suddenly, he remembered she'd mentioned making a new friend at work. That could have been a lead to finding her, but he didn't know anything about this new friend of hers. Shit!As he paced around the living room, his phone lit up on the glass table at the center of the room, and he quickly picked it up.His eyes scanned the content of the text he had just received. He had hoped it was from Delaney, but he was wrong. It was from Velda.
