D POV
I met Karen a few years ago when I was doing my residency. I immediately fell in love with her. She had just moved away from London, and she was starting her life again.
She was working at a funeral agency. I met her when my grandmother died. She was the one dealing with everything.
The way she handled everything with such class and always showing me that I was going to be okay made me fall entirely in love with her. Her caring eyes and her beautiful smile made me realise she was the one for me. She is a little older than me, but I am okay with that.
We went out on a date , and she told me about her past, how her boyfriend dumped her for her friend and how she suffered from that.
The boyfriend was a dick and
So, Dave was Karen's boyfriend before he met Alice, and it was all part of the plan. Did you see that one coming?
Alice POV I am making the bed when the doorbell rings. I look through the window, and I see the reporters taking photos, and I see Devin with his shades in his eyes and with his arms crossed. I run to the door, and I slightly open it so he can come in. I close the door as soon as he steps inside, and he gives me half hug and a kiss on the top of the head āHello, sweetheart. How are you doing?ā - he asks me while we go to the front room. The conference is being televised, and I canāt wait to see Harry taking down that bitch. Sheās been lying and manipulating Harry. I never thought I would hate someone as much as I hate her. Devin grabs us both cups of coffee, and we sit watching tv. Once the conference starts, I start
Hi everyone. I am sorry I havenāt updated the book as often as I would like. My personal life is a mess at the moment. We had some unfortunate and unforeseen things happening, and I donāt have the time to sit and write. You all know I work full time (40+ hours per week, and I have a toddler). I am trying my best when Iāve got a few minutes to type something, but itās complicated, and honestly, if I write, I will end up killing everyone because of everything that is happening to me. My life is literally upside down at the moment, and writing is not coming easily. I do apologise to all of you for the wait. I donāt know when I will be updating, but Iām hoping that my life will be a little better by the
Harry POV After the initial shock of seeing Karen and that asshole passed, we sat at the dinner table and had some good food and even better wine. Dine and Wine sound good to me right about now. Alice is looking worried, and I know she is still thinking about Karen; how can she not? This is all messed up, and if I hadnāt seen her in front of me, I wouldāve thought she was still far away, and people were lying. But I saw her with my own eyes, no one told me. The bitch is back, and I am not happy about it. I know sheās got something up her sleeve, and being with the douchebag, David makes things even more suspicious. I knew I couldnāt like that guy, not just because he was married to the love of my life or for the fact that he broke her heart but because he is an asshole that is with Karen. How can he? āAre you sure it was Dave?ā - A
Rita POV I go back home after watching the disaster that the press conference was. I canāt believe that Karen did that. What a bitch. I understand why Harry did what he did, and I honestly understand his anger and saying all of that. I deserve the heat that I am going to take because of it. I just donāt want my children involved in all of this. Henry is only a baby, and I want him to grow up to be just like Harry, respectful of woman and respectful of everyone; I want to be proud of the man he will become. If I keep doing this, he will grow up involved in lies and manipulations, and I donāt want that for my son or for myself. I want to have a normal life where I can raise my children peacefully. When I arrive, I walk straight into Henryās bedroom, and I start packing all of his essentials, everything he will need for us to stay away from here. I am
Harry POVRita explained all of the connections and all of the misunderstandings that happened lately and even her accusations. I can see she is sorry, but I don’t know if I will ever be able to forgive her. What she did was extremely serious. She could have destroyed my entire career, not to mention Alice’s.Her career had to be put on hold because of all the serious things being said about her. Especially now that had come out what Alice used to do when we met, and how we met.Rita told us about an exclusive interview that Karen has booked to be held tomorrow. According to Rita, this interview is going to cause a lot of damage.Alice passes me my phone straight away, and I start dealing with lawyers and Devin to get everything under control. Not to mention my publicist. She has a hard time keeping everything as private as possible. Still, older photos are coming out, photos of the wedding in I
Harry POV āAnd how did you have access to the rubbish bin? Did you have a warrant to go searching for it?ā - Steve asks, and I take a deep breath pinching the bridge of my nose. For fuck sake. Where are you, Rita? āNo, but it was outside his houseā, - the officer says, and Steve automatically jumps at them with his sharp mind. āStill inside his property line, so, officers, we all know that nothing will happenā, - Steve says, and I stop paying attention to the conversation that is going on. I can only think about Rita. More than ever, I honestly think she is in danger, carrying my child. Fuck. I start to get agitated on my seat, and Steve nudges me to stay still. I stop moving, and as soon as the officers leave, I stand up, and Steve looks at me. āI am worried about her; where is she? How did her phone end up there? What is going on?ā - I ask Steve that shrugs his s
Harry POVIt’s been a couple of days since I have had that serious conversation with my mother in law. We have kept in touch, and I do believe she is actually worried about Rita. I don’t know what the hell is happening, police have no more clues, and we managed to prove that I had nothing to do with her disappearance. I have more to win with her around than her missing. We are own the middle of a custody battle and a divorce. With her missing, everything stops, and I can’t be with Alice.I lift my eyes from my newspaper as soon as Alice walks in the room with Henry attached to her hip. He’s chirping and going, and she looks so happy. I can’t wait to form a family with her. Have our own kids. Have Henry as an older brother and maybe have a little girl. I don’t know what Rita is having, it is too soon to know, and she didn’t let me go with her to the appointments anyway. That got me cross.He
Alice POVHarry collapses next to me and I can’t help but to close my eyes while he looks at me. When I open them he is looking directly at me, into my soul. I am still breathing erratically trying to catch my breath.Harry was brutal today. I understand his needs and most of the times I actually enjoy his sexual preferences. I never thought I would. But this time my body is aching. I cried during his penetration but I can’t lie, it was very pleasing in a weird kinky way. The pain he made me feel at the exact same time he gave me extreme pleasure made my walls collapse around him and give in. My body is his to do as he pleases and if this is what he wants from me I will happily give it to him.He looks at me and smiles. I clear the tears from my eyes and I can see the worry all over his face. He turns on his side to look at me while I’m still laying down and I can&rsqu
