36. IN HIS ARMS
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I woke up to a pop message about a survey. The girls were still asleep and I didn’t want to walk around their house alone in the fear of them thinking I was snooping.
Bored, I clicked the link and it was about rings.
Which ring would you prefer?
One had a thin band and the other had a large band. I picked the thin band.
The next was a large diamond or a small diamond.
Go big or go home baby.
Then it was the diamond type.
I couldn’t help pick the pink diamond because why not. Then it was the diamond cut.

Storm led us to a restaurant I just knew only the elite dined in. It was hidden right in plain sight and security was tight.My cheeks were already burning.I had never been taken out on a ‘ date’.Was this a date? Probably not.The restaurant was fairly empty. There was just one other couple than us and the woman was all pearls, surely my mother-in-law would love her.The waiter led us to a table far from the other couple. It was on the second floor so as much as those outside couldn’t see us, we could see them.The menu was explained to us, first, the wine selection.Storm took the liberty to
HIS SECRET WIFE 38. BACK AT WORK
I ran my hands over the piece around my neck while staring at myself in the mirror. The door opening jolted me out of my daze.“I am leaving.”“Can I have a ride?” I asked, already grabbing my bag, rushing after Storm.“Why? Your driver is waiting.”My quick mouth failed me, my mind trying and coming empty with a reason.With all the missed calls I dodged from Damon, I really didn't want to see him.My mouth opened and closed.Would Storm think me too clingy if I persisted in my request?
HIS SECRET WIFE 39. VIOLATED
“ I will be leaving soon Ma’am, is there anything I can get you?”I was fighting a smile as I stared up.“ No Kimberly. Thank you.”“ Coffee?”She was making it hard to keep my straight face.“No Kimberly, thank you though. You know I will be working from home tomorrow, right?” I questioned.Her smile was so genuine and bright. She hadn't really qualified for the position and yes, I had hired her because of that smile. She gave out a certain warmth that I needed for my team.“Yes Ma’am, I will call and send emails for anything that may come up.”
HIS SECRET WIFE 40. BACK WITH THE FAMILY
I stared at myself in the mirror and I hated what I saw. I wanted to claw my skin over and over. I was weak. I was stupid. The brush moved across my burning skin, the concealer hiding the fresh burning red marks. My eyes burned from how hard I had cried. A loud bang on the door sent me jumping and yelping. My body shivered so hard and I hated it. I hated the fear Damon had spilled on me. I hated the disgust he had poured on me. “Get out, we have landed!” Gone was his polite tone, he had shown his true side and it was ugly. I turned back to the mirror. The wipe was used to dab the tears away. As hard as I tried, my eyes were blood red and nothing could solve that. More concealer was need. I dabbed more on my neck before putting away the brushes in my makeup case. I slipped it back in my bag. “ Come on!” Another bang sent me jumping. With shaky hands I took out a pair of glasses, slipping them on before I took my bag and went to the door. I wouldn’t let him treat me like th
HIS SECRET WIFE 41. SECRET ENVELOPE
The clutter of cutlery on plates was all that echoed. Tension suffocated me to the neck. I sat next to Bueala, my father sitting at the head. To say the past twenty-four hours had been awful was an understatement. The only relief was Damon being nowhere to be seen. Storm called three more times during the day and I ignored all of them. No one talked. Emily sat to dad’s right, eating away. The food turned bland in my mouth. I was far from hungry and I wanted to get back to my home where I could curl myself in my bed and wallow away. After long minutes of excruciating silence, everyone was done eating. Were their dinners that painful to bear through or was it because of my presence?“Brandy. Join me in my office.” My father finally spoke since he arrived, acknowledging me. I had begun thinking he was pretending I wasn't there. “Yes sir.” I replied, taking a sip of water and pushing off my seat. None said anything else. I followed after my father. During our lunch Anna had conti
HIS SECRET WIFE 42. THREATS
All through the weekend I was just floating over everything.Maybe even I was to blame.Yes, I did not try to include myself in all the planned activities.In the pool I just sat on the chairs fully dressed because there was no way I was wearing a swimsuit in front of my sister’s and Damon always being a few feet from me.I hated that the girls thought it was cute, making jokes about my guard when I was actually in hell. He didn't say anything, never got closer but just stared at me intensely. I could feel the smirk on his face and it killed me.He made me feel naked and disgusted. I couldn’t help chills constantly jolting my body. It was like he was mocking me. His words kept coming back to mind, the insu

I ran out of the elevator and through the passage.Anything the guards said to me went unheard. I unlocked the door and ran to the bathroom where I emptied everything I ate that morning. My hands grabbed on the seat as I poured vomit out while sobbing.The picture kept coming to my mind and I threw up even more with burning tears flowing down my cheeks. I had never felt so violated in my life. Maggots crawled up my skin and at one point I couldn't help stretching.A hand came at my hair, pulling my head back.“Get yourself together.”I shook Damon’s hold away, pushing him but he gripped my head even tighter.“Clean yourself and get a hold of yoursel
HIS SECRET WIFE 44. SPIRALING AND CONFUSED
I screamed and jolted out of my seat, my hand swinging to defend myself from the hand that had grabbed my shoulder. I swung my barely folded fists a few times before I stumbled and tripped on my feet. A hand grabbed me but I screamed and jumped back, putting much space between us.I hit the lamp switch so fast, wide eyes falling on Storm.He could never understand the fear in me.My hand flew to my rabid heart, nearly tearing from the arteries.I couldn’t even talk and when did it get so dark?Storm raised an eyebrow which drew my eyes to the bruise at the corner of his eye.“Oh my, what happened?”&

ONE YEAR LATERThe phone buzzed and I pressed the receiver button.“Ma’am, a package has arrived for you.”I didn’t even answer. I bolted up the seat and ran for the door. I threw it open, catching the attention of some of my teammates.The paperbag still sat on Kimberly’s desk. I snatched it up, a grin on my face.“Thank you.”I took out my phone, pressing redial as I rushed to the executive’s elevator.“Hi, I am coming up.” I said as soon as the call connected.“I am in the middle o

Sometimes it just bothered me, how much I wanted to hold him, how much I enjoyed being pasted to my husband. Yes, the night had it’s downs but now that we were a million miles away from the disaster I couldn’t help but smile. Amar opened the door and Storm slid out. I followed after him to stop because he had turned and was now blocking the door. Storm bent down, his hands going to my feet where he unbuckled my heels and slipped them out of my aching feet. It was moments like these where I knew no matter what, I’d fight tooth and nail for us. He wrapped one arm around me, the other still holding my heels and he hefted me towards him. I yelped and giggled, my arms wrapping around his neck. “Storm.” I whispered into him, and blushed even harder as he scooped me up with just one arm. My legs wrapped around his waist and locked at his back. What was he doing? My whole body buzzed with emotions and feelings I could not explain. He would never know what it did to me when he pulled
HIS SECRET WIFE 63. OFFICE PARTY
I knew how it went but why did it hurt so much this time. As soon as Storm and I approached the door, I let go of his hand. He walked on faster and got in before me into the room. I turned, and walked away from him. When I was far enough I turned around to search for him. Maybe this time he would be looking for me and scold me for leaving his side but he didn’t. I watched as he nodded and greeted those he thought worthy of his greeting. He continued marching on until he was before his father. They talked a little and by then it was obvious that he knew I wasn't by his side or anywhere near him anymore. He didn’t even search for me in the crowd with his eyes. I swallowed, knowing my job was to disappear from sight and not make a mockery of him. The large room was buzzing and as I searched, I did not know a single person there. Some I recognized but most were just strangers to me. I couldn’t stand in a corner all night long. My leg was already giving in notice that it would rais
HIS SECRET WIFE 62. LOVE AND HAPPINESS
“How about this time?”Storm stepped away and I stared at the large mirror. My frown couldn’t get deeper. I thought by refusing to hire a makeup artist then finally failing to do my makeup would persuade Storm from taking me with him. Tell me why he sat down and watched tutorials for an hour before attempting my eyebrows.“No.” I gasped, dropping my shoulders and frowning even deeper. “ It’s horrible.”“Brandy!” He glared at me and I wanted so bad to be so pissed at him but I couldn’t. The Storm I had been getting every single day for the past eight months I would die for. My husband was my best friend. He was my everything.“I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go!&rdquo

“Get a team to clean it, we won't be staying there for long, and tell Ice to make a presentation of all the land we have, residential.”I shifted only to groan out loud as pain exploded on my side. Shit, this was hell. The pills had worn off and everything was throbbing. My limbs were painfully numb, pins and needles on the entirety of them. I clenched my eyes tighter and buried myself deeper into the warm skin right by me.Warm skin? A cloud fogged my brain, making it hard to think clearly.“Hi.”A voice.I knew that voice.Oohh God, I knew that voice! I wanted to lift my head up but failed so I buried myself deep into h
HIS SECRET WIFE 60. FAITHFUL
My eyes fluttered open and for a second I just lay there, blinking.Something had woken me up yet as I lay there nothing was heard. A shiver ran down my body but I pulled the cover with my arm and closed my eyes.A door opened and my eyes shot wide open. Someone was in my room. Who was it, what did they want?I did not dare ask who it was, just waiting for the inevitable to happen so I could scream my lungs out.Feet suddenly moved across the room then way closer to the bed only to stop. I squeezed my eyes as if that would make the person go away. More feet patting, moving around the bed then a swipe of cool air as the blankets were pulled back.Wait, what?! The scream was bubbling in my chest. T

BRANDY’S P.O.V.“So, is she the one with the dogs?”Even though we began watching this together, I was the one that kept explaining.“Yes, she is the one with the many dogs.” I said back.“You don't like dogs?”I shook my head.“Good, me too.” My mother-in-law said.In a week she had transformed the bedroom into one Storm would throw a fit over.With the rain pouring, Elizabeth’s friends canceled their brunch appointment which was why she now sat beside my bed, watching the housewives with me on my laptop.
HIS SECRET WIFE 58. REVENGE
STORM’S P.O.V.“Sir, your arm.”I scoffed, turning away from Amar.Damon was naked, body covered in long lashes, blood seeping from the gashes created by my whip.I didn't care that my arm burned and surely bled, soaking the bandages. I didn’t mind that my burned skin was opening new wounds from me flicking my arm so aggressively.A loud angry growl escaped me as I continued whipping this scum. I wanted his skin to peel, I wanted him to writhe in pain.He heaved out and I pulled back, staring at his face which was clean of all the wounds inflicted on him.His teeth were clenched, eyes staring at me with determination.
