43. ROSES, DIAMONDS, AND HOSPITALS
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I 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

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?”&

“What do you want?”I sighed. It had been a long day. It felt like years ago when I had been in the hospital.Worse thing, I had no recollection of what happened after I came back to the office.“Chinese.”Storm said nothing back and I just sat beside him. I realized there were a few inches between us and ate those few inches up until I was glued to his side.“I know a place downtown sir, are you okay with me making the reservation? It’s friendly.” Amar suddenly said with my eyes moving to him.Storm nodded his head and Amar didn’t waste time calling for a secluded table.

“Hi Ma’am, there is Gwen from procurement and Sandra from security.” Kimberly’s voice popped from the receiver.I pressed the button, “let them through.”Guilt washed over me.It seemed like years since we had talked. I could recall a few calls from them and texts but the previous day was all vague for me.The door opened, Kimberly walking in, letting them in.“Can I get you all something to drink?” My friends were too shocked to even answer.“No Kimberly, thank you, you can go for lunch.” I said, seeing my friends carrying paper bags from the canteen.“Brandy gi
HIS SECRET WIFE 47. WAY FORWARD?
We were going to an island! A private island all to ourselves! We could hardly work as we planned in our group chat. After work my friends would pick me up and we would go shopping in preparation for our trip and the next morning I had asked and they had come to pick me up again. Of course, a couple of miles from the house. It finally looked like there was light at the end of the tunnel. Not seeing Damon for two days made me feel as if I could get through this. The worry, the stress all took a back seat as I worked and daydreamed about our trip in my free time. My head snapped straight to the time when my phone pinged. Five right on the dot. I grinned, picking my phone. Sandra: Come down, we parked in the street. Brandy: Coming I quickly packed my bag, looking forward to a night in. I would try as hard as I could to not work but maybe catch a movie, cuddling on Storm’s side of the bed. Guilt slid its ugly head as I thought of him. I hadn’t told him about the trip. I woul
HIS SECRET WIFE 48. FINAL STRAW
Shaking hands wrapped around my torso, standing by the door as I had an hour ago. I was late for work, I knew I should leave but I couldn’t leave. My friends had called an hour ago, but I never picked up. The pain made me numb from everything else but it. It burned hard yet I didn’t dare cry. I had cried enough. A knock came at the door, making me jump. “Ma’am, it’s Benjamin, are you okay, you are late for work?” I heard him say something to the guard at the door. “Ma’am, are you okay?” His voice seemed laced with concern that could fool anyone but me. “She is not picking up her phone. Do you have a key? What if something happened? She wasn't feeling well yesterday.” Whether I stood there or not, Benjamin would get in apparently. I stepped forward, swallowing. I opened the door, coming face to face with him. Concern was written all over his face. “Ma’am?” The guard at the door questioned, also concerned. My mouth was dry and I had no words. I just be
HIS SECRET WIFE 49. WORST BETRAYAL
Brandy: We are going to that club tonight. I danced around the room despite the pain in my center. The bottle I had passed out drinking was still in hand, half way through. Music blurred through the speakers, as loud as it could get, nearly bleeding my ears. I stumbled about, bending over which turned to be a bad idea. Vomit rose up to my chest from the pain that shot through. But still, I slipped my feet into the sneakers while I was still naked. Another song played and I screamed. Only the scream brought tears forward. They ran down my face as I screamed even harder then I stopped. I chugged the whisky back and stumbled forward.“I am going to party. Whoooo!”I turned from the buzz of my phone. I stared at the screen. It was ten at night and my friends were already queuing outside the club. Oohh shit. I rushed to take my bag then placed the alcohol on the table before swiping a knife and slipped it in my bag. Then I recalled my nakedness so I ran back to the closet to pull on a

“Ya first time here?” I corked my head up to the driver, nodding my head slightly which sent sharp pain through my skull. He asked a few more questions but gave up from the lack of a reply. My mouth was burning, my head hammering and body aching badly. I felt weak, queasy, and seriously unwell. The flight had made matters worse, nine hours of absolute hell and I had vomited all through it. “Just a few minutes away.” The man’s voice was hitting the nail in the coffin. I was afraid I would vomit again but I had nothing more in me and my pipes burned from all the gagging. The car slowed down. I pulled my bag, pulling out a few notes to pay the driver. My hands pulled the paper bags before I exited the car. Coming here was a risk. I did not know the state of the house but looking at it, I knew I had made the right choice. “Bye miss.” I nodded my head, the driver turning the car away, the tires crunching through the pebbles on the driveway. I turned, staring at the old stone hous

Nine hours later and my eyes were raw. Sleep had failed me and my thoughts haunted me through the night. I got off and caught a cab straight to the office. It was six in the morning, a cold night having drifted away, leaving a light mist and drizzle behind. I got off the cab, turning to see a cafe not far from the building. Most that passed were in gym outfits, running down the street even with the cold and rain. I got myself a coffee, still not able to stomach much. My bags in hand, I walked to the company. Only one of the receptionists sat behind the humongous desk. The floors were being mopped, none paying attention to me as I strutted through the waiting area to the elevator. Music played in the background of the elevator and when it opened on my floor I took it in greedily. Large cubicles stared back at me and as I made my way through them, I could see that some of my team had already made it their home by the pictures and pot plants there. They had desktops, phones, and

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

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

“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

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.
