Nina was in the bookstore choosing some books when a girl suddenly hugged her so tight and screamed "oh my God, Nina is this really you?"
The girl looked familiar but Nina could not recognize her. "Yes I am Nina, I'm sorry but do I know you?"
"of course you know me I'm Rihanna you idiot, how can you not recognize me? "the girl said.
Then Nina suddenly remembered her, she was no other that Rihanna Anderson. Rihanna was a really good friend in her college life but somehow their friendship didn't last long.
Nina was embarrassed of herself, how could she not recognize her. "I'm really sorry, it's just I haven't seen you in a long time" she said shyly.
"oh it's okay but tell me what are you doing here, you still have the same love for books huh? " Rihanna asked.And that's how Nina ended spending the whole day with Rihanna. She was still a very fun person just like the college days. They talked about so many things and shopped together. Rihanna was constantly asking about Damon and how their relationship was now. She said that she was shocked that damon let Nina come alone to a bookstore and laughed recalling how during college days, Damon would never let Nina go to the library alone because he believed that boys try to flirt with Nina more when she is alone at the library. Nina just said that everything was fine she didnt dare to tell Nina about how much Damon has changed now. She just pretended that she was happy with Damon just like she was in the past. Nina realized that she really needed some friends. It's been so long since she had a friend. Nina was really enjoying her time now.
It was getting dark so Nina bade her goodbye to Nina and started for home. Nina didn't take the driver with her. She always liked to drive on her own. Also, she knew that Damon gets mad whenever he gets to know that Nina is driving alone. Damon always commands her to take the driver with her. But Nina enjoys driving on her own. But in the past she always took the driver just so that Damon wouldnt be mad. But today she felt like she wanted to make damon mad, she wamnted him to go crazy and feel the insanity that she feels when he ignores her.
Suddenly the car stopped. The engine went off. Nina felt her eart beat drop. It was dark outside and there was no other car on the road. Nina tried to keep herself calm and got of the car to check. When she opened the bonnet she saw hot smoke coming out of the engine,. it seemed like that the engine was too hot and she couldn't even touch it. The car was very old but it was her favorite cuz it was her mother's car. It always reminded of the comfort she had near her mother. So, no matter how many cars Damon owned, Nina always used this one.
Nina looked around her but saw no one. This road was always the silent one. She took her phone and called Damon but he wasn't answering. Nina cursedin her mind as she realized that he was probably with a girl now. She called him 9 more times and every time no one picked up. Nina took a gulp in fear. Her phones battery was showing low and she knew it would go off any second now. She cursed her luck and called Damon again "please Damon pick it up" she prayed. But Damon didn't. Suddenly she remembered that she had his office number. So she did her last try.
"Hello " Nina thanked God when she heard voice on the other side of the phone.
" hello who is this? " the person on the line asked.
" umm I'm Nina....Nina Salvatore Damon's wife. Can you give the phone to him it's very important" she said in one breath."oh I'm sorry madam but sir is not in the office he left early today" the person said."actually my cars engine die- "Before she could finish her phone went off.It was so dark now Nina looked at her hand watch and saw that it was almost 11 pm. She has been sitting by the side of her car for 3 hours now. She was feeling upset, cold, angry and lastly very hungry. But most importantly she was feeling helpless because she knew that this is her life now. She felt like now she has no one. After both of her parents death, Damon was her everything. He had become the pillar for her. He was always there to protect her no matter what. But now, she has lost her pillar, there is no one to protect her now, no one tp care for her. She knew that she has become a burden on him now. SDhe knew that Damon was with his mistress now, she wondered if he is protecting his mistress the same way he had been protecting her. She couldn't help but feel bad. A tear fell down from her eye as she looked at her wedding ring. Weirdly she could feel some warmth coming off the ring. She knew she was hallucinating becausse her heart and soul was desperate for some warmth. She was almost shivering now. It was too cold. She closed her eyes and tried to imagine Damon in front of her. She imagined him giving her his million dollar smile for which Nina fell for him. She saw him coming closer to her and giving her a sweet and slow kiss on her cheeks. But suddenly she saw Damon kissing another girl on the cheek instead of kissing her. Nina jerked her eyes open. Yes she was hallucinating again.
Suddenly she could see a light. The light was too powerful for her fragile eyes. So, she tried to cover her eyes with the palm of her hands but her hands felt too heavy to move. It took her a moment to realize that the light was actually coming from a car. The car stopped in front of her and she saw a familiar figure running towards her. Thats the last thing she saw becasue after that everything went black.
Damon's povDamon was feeling extra frustrated today. Honestly, his heart was just missing someone, yes he was missing Nina. He really wanted to be close to her and caress her adorable face with his hands. But the problem was that everytime he faced her, everytime his eyes met hers, he could feel something stir in his heart, there was a contant feeling of guilt that consumed him everytime he met her. The feeling of guilt was so overwhelming that it can bring him to his knees. It is so strong that it is enough to break him. He knew that and it scared him. So, he decided that its better for his ego if he doesnt go home now. After some time, Damon decided that he would call his mistress Mona again. He called her and told her to be prent at one of his farmhouses. And Damon went to that farmhouse."oh baby I missed you so much, it's been so
Nina's povNina opened her eyes as the sunlight hit her face and felt someone holding her tight. She looked around and saw that it was none other then Damon. Damon had his arms around her body tightly as if she would fade if he didnt hold on to her. Suddenly Nina realized that she was all naked under the blanket and so was Damon. Nina was very embarrassed and shocked. It had been so long since they made love. Nina tried to remember what happened last night but all she could remember was her all alone in the middle of the road at night. She wondered if they made love last night and blushed. Before she could think anything else she felt Damon waking up.As Damon opened his eyes Nina tried to cover her body with the blanket. Damon sat up straight and looked at her. His hand reached for her forehead as he checked her temperature."How
Nina's povNina went to the bathroom crying. She looked at her own reflection in the mirror. She touched her face and noticed allthe little details of her face. She had dark circles under her eyes and her body was now too thin. She kept looking at the mirror for a while and thought that maybe its her fault that Damon is cheating on her. If she was more beautiful then Damon would never go to another women."You look so disgusting, you don't deserve his love that's why he goes to another woman " she told herself. Without thinking anything else she took out a hidden blade from one of the drawers."You are so ugly" she said to herself again and felt the need to punish herself. Her heart was racing crazily and she was feeling an ache inside her heart that was making her feel suffocated. So, without wasting anymore time, she just pushed the blade deep inside her left arm, teari
Nobody's povWhen Damon came home he saw Nina sleeping on the couch. Her dark and heae eyelashes touched her cheek. And on top of that she was wearing a white colored night gown. She really looked like an angel. Damon couldnt help but stare at her, he slowly caressed her cheeks with his rough knuckles and his fingers moved to her pink lips. He really felt like kissing her but he also hated the idea of waking her from her peaceful sleep. He sighed as he carried her to bed. When he placed her on the bed and felt her stirring.Nina felt that somthing move her as she opened her eyes. She was shocked to see that she was on the bed with Damon. Nina didn't know how to react. She felt so guilty for lashing out on him earlier."hey" Damon said as he caressed her cheek again unable to control himself."You're here" Nina said."yes I am " Damon assured her and took her sent whil
Damon's pov The kiss was something else. It felt so magical. Once Damon started he just couldn't stop himself. Nina tasted like honey and strawberry. Damon had no idea how much he missed this until he kissed her. Its been a while since he has been this close to her, since he has felt her warm breath on her face. Her intoxicating scent made him want her more and more and never stop. So, Damon went ahead and tried to touch her more, he just needed her a little more. He felt like he would not be able to breath if Nina even moved away an inch from him, she felt like oxygen to him. Damon finally stopped kissing to catch his breath and so did Nina. Damon rested his forhead on her forhead and their noses touched each others. Damon didnt want this moment to never end, he really wanted the time to just stop at this moment and never move. He tried to touch her lips again with his own. But suddenl

Staying away from Damon seemed the best way to her.So she slept in the guest room and avoided Damon.Nina woke up and started doing usual chores when suddenly the bell rang.She opened the door and saw a tall and handsome person giving her a smile."Can I help you?" Nina asked the stranger."Yes, only you can help me " the stranger said with a smirk in his face." Excuse me! " Nina replied not understanding anything." Well, seems like my brother forgot about my arrival and you're the only one to help me keep company now " the stranger said." But whose your brother? "Nina asked confused." oh yeah I totally forgot to introduce myself, I'm the one and only Stephen Salvatore, Damon's half brother " Stephen
Damon's povThe launch was hell for Damon. Damon kept glaring at Stephen as Stephen kept taking glances at Nina. Nina tried to make the atmosphere comfortable but that didn't work.After launch Nina was washing the dishes when Damon entered. Nina felt his presence and turned to him."umm let me help you " Damon said awkwardly." no I'm fine " Nina said and continued her work.Damon went to the sink and started washing the dishes with her." Damon I told you that I don't need help" Nina said looking at Damon."Yeah I heard that but I want to help my wife " Damon said looking at her eyes.Nina kept quiet when suddenly Damon touched her hand. Nina looked at him shocked but didn't move her hand and Damon was grateful for that. He caressed her soft cheeks as Nina took a deep breath closing her eyes. Damon touche

It was an awkward silence.Suddenly Nina could Damon's arm around her waist. She sucked in a deep breath."just let me hold you, baby " Damon said.Nina didn't said anything. Even if she knew the affection was just for some time she enjoyed it as sleep engulfed her.Damon's povDamon held Nina as she slept soundly. Damon couldn't sleep. He kept looking at her.

Something that he thought he never h
Nina's POVNina is going to give her presentation today. She couldnt sleep the whole night because of her nervousness."Ugh... I need to calm my freaking nerves down, I can do this" Nina thought in her mind as she cursed herself for being so nervous. Nina came to the office pretty early today so that she can be at least a little bit organised. She was wearing a light pink shirt with a black pencil skirt. She just wanted to look proffessional but somehow the light pink color was giving her a very girlish look. Nina looked at the bathroom mirror again and left out a sigh of frustration."I should have just worn the grey shirt instead" she thought in her mind. She again took a long breath to calm herself donw and got out of the washroom. As she was just going to her office, she met Aron. They bumped into each other."Ah, Aron, Im so sorry, I didnt see you. Its my fault. did you get hurt?" Nina asked, anxiety was very much present in her voi
Damon’s POVFor the first time in months Damon finally felt at least a little bit relieved. He felt like himself again. And there was no doubt that Nina was the reason behind this happiness felt by Damon. After he bought the things from the store for Nina and gave it to her, he wanted to spend some more time with her, he wanted to embrace her in his arms and just take her beautiful and addictive smell. But he knew he had to control himself. It was a miracle itself that Nina came to his house, helped him clean it and then had dinner with him. So, he did not want to jinx his luck. And so he left immediately after giving her the packet.But here he was now, standing in front of Nina’s apartment. He just couldn't leave yet. So, he decided that he would leave once he sees the light of Nina’s bedroom is turned off.
Nina’s POVNina was now sitting inside Damon’s shining Porsche. It has been a long time since she had been inside such an expensive car. Damon always had an obsession about different types of cars. She remembers how when they were in the university Damon would buy new cars and always give the first ride to Nina. Nina smiled to herself as she remembered those days, those days were really magical. Both of them were so naive. Suddenly Nina realized that Damon was staring at her because of the slight smile on her lips. She immediately became serious and let out a cough so that Damon would stop staring at her and start looking ahead on the road.The environment in the car was quite awkward. The air felt heavy between Nina and Damon. Nina kept looking through the window as Damon occasionally took glances at Nina. Thankfully, Nina’s house was n
Nina's POVNina does not know what came over herwhen he told Damon to have dinner with her. She just could not see him in this state. Seeing him in this condition felt like a torture to her. It is true that she hated him so so much in her life, speacially after their unborn child's death. But somehow with time the hatred has faded and the limitless love that she has for him has emerged once again in her heart especially after she saw him crying like crazy for her in front of Mona. Yes, he has wronged her to no end, he has given her a lot of pain. But Nina's heart could not endure seeing Damon in pain. She felt like her heart would explde when she hugged him because she could sense his pain. But was her heart ready to give Damon a chance? She did not know that yet. Maybe time will give her the answer.Nina's train of thoughts when Damon entered the dinning room. He has showered and was wearing a royal blue colored shirt. His muscles were still visible under his sh
Damon's POVDamon doesnt know what day is it or how long he has been in his trying to drink away his miseries. Now he feels what Nina had felt, he always saw her crying while having a glass of wine in her fragile hands. But during those times, he never really relaized how much painful it was for her. But now that he is in the same place as hers, he knows how it feels to be unwanted. He knows that Nina would never want him again ever. Heck, she probably does not even want to see his face ever again. He is a little relieved that at least now he has proven that his Nina never cheated. He recorded his conversation with Mona that day and he published it on the social media. Now everyone knows what really happened. Mona is now in jail for framing Nina. But Damon knows that what he has done can never be the repentance for what he did to Nina. and that makes him hate himself more and more. Suddenly he heard a knock on his bedroom door. He hated even hearing anyone's voice right now.
Nina's POVIt was another busy day for Nina. She had tons of work today. But she was ready and excited for all the work. Last few weeks have been very busy for her. But she enjoyed it becaus she realized that when she is super busy, She hardly recalls the bad memories. Right now, she had a cup of cofffe in her hand and she was heading towards her office. She was in a good mood today.As soon as she entered the office, she could feel something was wrong. People were not looking at her normally. They looked at her in a very weird way. Nina was feeling very akward after she realized that everyone was literally staring at her. Even the ,manager was staring at her. She went to him and asked "Sir, is there something wrong? Have I done something wrong?"."Oh no ma'am, you did nothing wrong" the manager said.Nina honestly didnt understand if the manager was being sarcastic with her. Since when he called her 'Ma'am' . Nina was really confused now. Wit
Damon's POVDamon was surprised to see how lavish Mona's house looked. He knew that Mona definitely had spent a lot of his money because while she was his mistress, he had given her one of his unlimited credit cards. Damon cused himself once again as he recalled what an idiot he was even just a few months ago. Mona grabbed his hand and almost dragged him trough the main door of the villa. She was really eager to take him to her bedroom. Damon did not say anything he just followed Mona. He was a little confused at the fact that Nina was still walking without having any problem with her balance. she have had consumed a lot of alchohol and if any other girl was in her place, she would have lost unconsciousness long ago. But Mona was really different, she definitely knew how to handle drinks. But Damon prayed to God that Mona would go to sleep soon, or else Damon would not be able to execute his plan.Soon they were in Mona's bedroom. Mona's words were now very slugg
Damon's POVDamon couldnt believe that he was actually doing this. He was actually sitting in front of Mona (the girl he wished to kill actually) and acting like he was all in love with her. It was getting too much for him. He closed his eyes as he tried to focus on the reason. Yes, he was here because he had a reason. He is doing this for his wife, Nina. He had a plan of exposing Mona. Stephen was originally the one who came up with a plan. And Damon was the one who had to execute the plan. But there was just one problem, the plan involved Damon acting all lovey-dovey with Mona. Mona has to believe that Damon is now love with her and he hates his wife Nina. But this is easier said than done. It took all of Damon to not vomit at the sight of Mona. So, here he was, at a restaurant having lunch with Mona. Mona was really falling for the act. She is so freaking desperate to have Damon as hers."I knew it all along, I knew that you would realize how much of an

Shhe now knows that even if she has no one by her side, she can still live. She has defenitely learned to live without Damon now. Its weird how just a few months ago she used to think that her life is nothing without Damon. She thought that she would die without him in her life. This is the reason why she always stayed no matter what. This is the reason she stayed even after knowing that Damon was cheating on her. Yes, she knew that Damon was cheating on her. She knew that while she was crying alone
