Ephemeral Pain PROLOGUE
"I'm your husband. Do not forget it-" "We were only married because my boyfriend is your secretary and he is indebted to you-" "Shut up," he said calmly but with a hint of anger in his voice. "We are married because we love each other, get it? That's it, baby. Remember that. We are married because we love each other. No more other reasons than that. We love each other. That's it." His voice and tone are so weird. "Teivel.... please let me free," Janeah pledged while tears flowed d
Ephemeral Pain CHAPTER 1
“SERIOUSLY, babe? Stop joking around!” I hissed. Throwing to his face the paper he handed me. What the f*ck is he thinking? “I’m sorry babe, but you’re already married to my boss.” He said while his head bowed. “Stop pranking me! Is this one of your typical pranks again?!” I hissed. I don’t know what to feel right now. I can’t think straight. I want to curse. I want to yell. F*ck! “I’m sorry. I don’t have many choices.” He said while avoiding my gaze. “Explain yourself,” I said calmly but f*ck, I’m f*cking losing my patience now. “You know my boss. He’s… He’s looking for someone to marry, and… And… And he… He asked me to find him, someone, to marry.” He said, still avoiding my gaze. “And you f*cking offer me without asking my consent?” I hissed. He clasped my hands. And he raised his gaze and looked into my eyes. “We both know he likes you and… And you know that I’m… I’m indebted to him. So… So to be able to pay him I… I-” “You think it’s a f*cking good idea to use me as a p
Ephemeral Pain CHAPTER 2
JANEAH has been peacefully sleeping because of what happened a while ago. It’s already dark outside and you can hear the roar of thunder. The rain is pouring so hard and the only thing you can hear inside is the music that the drop of rain creates and the monstrous roars of thunder. While peacefully sound asleep someone entered Janeah’s room. The man walked near her and watched her while standing beside her bed. The man slowly sat down beside her. He slowly lifted his hand and rested it on her leg. He moved his hand slowly caressing her leg. When he noticed that she didn’t move, he gently grabbed the blanket that was covering her body. He slowly lifted it up while watching her face to see any movement or recognition from her. Her long and soft legs faced him after he lifted the blanket. He placed his hand above her legs. He started caressing it slowly and gently with his rough hand. The man seems not satisfied with what he is doing. He slowly placed his rough hand into her brea

JANEAH woke up with the smell of the hospital welcoming her. She adjusted her eyes because everything she sees is blurry. When her vision adjusted she saw where she was, full white and a bit of green colored room. She saw Green sleeping while sitting on his left side and he was holding her hands. She touched his cheeks and caressed them. Seeing Green made her eyes teared up again. She tilted her head away facing to her right to remove her gaze from Green. She saw a digital wall clock and it was already three in the afternoon. She toured her eyes inside the room. The room is spacious; it can pass as a hotel room. She saw a sixty five inches television in front of her. There’s a two long sofa bed and four single seat sofas. There’s a kitchen on her side and a door. A door towards the bathroom. Janeah has been thinking about what will happen to her after s
Ephemeral Pain CHAPTER 4
IT'S been two weeks since I came into this house or should I rather call it a mansion? For those two weeks, I never saw my ‘husband.’ When they fetched me at the hospital Green never came back to see me off. I never even saw his shadow. Reporters and fans are also waiting outside the hospital. I’ve been staying in this house, I am not allowed to go outside beyond the gates of this house or mansion?I tried escaping but I never reached the gates because the securities and maids keep finding me. I have tried escaping for almost every hour since the day I came here. That is why they assigned guards and maids to follow me everywhere I went. They’ve been watching every move I make. One time the maids that were assigned to follow me even insisted on coming with me inside the bathroom but I declined it’s my privacy for Christ's sake! And thank God they obeyed because it’s frust

Ephemeral Pain CHAPTER 6
JANEAH woke up because she felt something heavy embracing her. She slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes adjusted and she can only see dark because of the heavy curtains closing the windows and the lights are off. She felt a heavy breathing down her neck, she tried to reach it and she touched a furry thing. ‘A furry thing? A cat? A hair?’ she thought. Janeah’s eyes widen because of the realization that she doesn’t have a cat or any kind of pet. Janeah reached the side table to open the lampshade. Her eyes adjusted from the blurry vision because of the sudden light. Her eyes widened when she saw a man hugging her and his head buried into her neck. She wants to scream but she is forced to stop herself because she knows that this man is her so called husband and this man is tired of work because she heard from the maids that he encountered problems with his business out of the country. And yelling won’t help her for Christ's sake her room is soundproof. So even though she will yell till her

They seem to be waiting for who's gonna talk first. Abchanchu slightly coughs to catch her attention, Janeah glances at him waiting for him to speak up. Abchanchu gulps because of the stare Janeah gives him. Janeah felt her face redden seeing how his adams apple moves. Janeah removed her gaze from him. And went back fidgeting her fingers. She bowed her head because he caught her staring at him. Abchanchu coughed again but this time Janeah didn’t look up to look at him. He cleared his throat before speaking. “Are you okay?” She raised her head when he heard him speak and she immediately regretted it because her eyes were fixed on his lips. Her face reddened, and she felt her cheeks burning because his lips felt like calling her attention. “Hey, you’re spacing out. You’re lost in your deep thoughts.” Janeah gasph causing her to
