His Volition Chapter 25: It going to be a long journey
I scrubbed the floors and dusted the furniture, I couldn't shake the sense of shame that lingered in the pit of my stomach. I resented the fact that Carmen was treating me like a servant, barking orders and expecting me to cater to her every whim. But beneath the resentment, there was also a deep-seated feeling of disgust – disgust at myself for allowing things to deteriorate to this point.I couldn't help but wonder if there was a way to regain control of the situation. Maybe if I swallowed my pride and acted lovingly towards Carmen, I could manipulate her back into submission. After all, hadn't I been the one calling the shots in our marriage?With this thought in mind, I approached Carmen tentatively as she sat in the living room, lost in thought. "Hey, Carmen," I said, forcing a smile onto my face. "Is there anything I can do to help?"Carmen looked up at me, her eyes cold and distant. "Help?" she scoffed. "Since when do you care about helping me?"I tried to win her over even tho
His Volition Chapter 26: Shall we
I couldn't believe it. Sean had disappeared without a word, leaving me alone at home to wonder where he'd gone. Anger bubbled up inside me as I waited for him to return, pacing the living room with clenched fists.When Sean finally walked through the door, reeking of alcohol and looking worse for wear, I was seething with fury. "Where have you been all evening?" I demanded, my voice sharp with accusation. "And how dare you leave without my permission?"Sean stumbled over his words, clearly intoxicated and unable to provide a coherent explanation. I could see the guilt and shame written all over his face, but it only fueled my anger further. How could he be so careless, so selfish as to abandon me like this?But despite my anger, there was also a flicker of something else – a desire, burning deep within me. As I looked at Sean, his vulnerability laid bare before me, I felt a sudden surge of attraction. Maybe it was the alcohol, that I took earlier while waiting for him that clouded my
His Volition Chapter 27: Sigh
As I stood there in the bathroom, trying to gather my thoughts, the events of last night played over and over in my mind like a broken record. The taste of regret lingered on my tongue, mixing with the acrid scent of alcohol that still clung to my skin.I couldn't believe I had let myself get swept away by desire, allowing it to cloud my judgment and lead me into a moment of reckless abandon. It was as if I had lost control of myself, surrendering to the primal urges that had lain dormant within me for so long.But now, in the harsh light of day, the reality of my actions hit me like a ton of bricks. I felt dirty, used, and utterly disgusted with myself. How could I have betrayed my principles, and my values, in pursuit of a fleeting moment of pleasure?I wanted to scrub away the memory of last night, to rid myself of the shame that clung to me like a second skin. But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't escape the truth of what had happened – I had allowed myself to be consumed by
His Volition chapter 28: I did it again
After a long and exhausting day at the office, I finally returned home, my mind still swirling with thoughts of the embezzlement scandal that had rocked my company. I entered the house, and the familiar scent of home enveloped me. The events of last night and the discovery of financial discrepancies had left me feeling raw and vulnerable, and the sight of Sean working out in the home gym only added to it. I pretended not to notice him as I passed by, keeping my gaze fixed straight ahead. His back was turned to me, and I couldn't bring myself to face him, not after what had happened between us. Instead, I headed straight for the kitchen, my stomach grumbling in protest. I needed something to distract me, something to fill the void that threatened to consume me from within. I ordered some Chinese takeout, not bothering to check in with Sean about his preferences. He could fend for himself tonight – I had enough on my plate as it was. As I waited for the food to arrive, I busied mys
His Volition Chapter 29: You Thought I Forgot
Sean stirred from his sleep, his eyelids heavy with drowsiness as he slowly regained consciousness. The soft light filtering through the curtains hinted at the early hours of dawn, casting a gentle glow over the room. He shifted slightly, intending to drift back into slumber, when he felt something soft and warm wrap around his member.Confusion clouded his mind for a moment until he realized that there was someone beside him in bed. His heart skipped a beat as he turned his head, and his gaze met mine, my features softened by sleep.For a moment, Sean simply lay there, his mind racing as he tried to make sense of the situation. He couldn't recall me coming into his room last night, nor could he remember inviting me to share his bed. And yet, here I was, my presence stirring something within him that he couldn't quite name."Hey," I whispered, my voice barely above a murmur as I gently nudged his shoulder. I straddled him in one swift motion and buried his hardness deep into me up to
His Volition Chapter 30: The Manipulator
The morning sun trickled through the parted curtains, stirring from my slumber. A lingering chill danced down my spine, reminding me of what had transpired the night before. The sex between Sean and me had escalated to a fever pitch, leaving a bitter taste lingering in the recesses of my mouth. I dressed quickly in a sharp suit and made my way to Whitney Corporation. Someone had been siphoning money from my company and I had a deep urge that it was up to Sean’s father. That old scheming backstabbing two-timing son of a bitch. He was involved in Mira’s death instead of him to be admonishing his son for killing an innocent woman. The grandeur of the building loomed before me, a monument to the empire that Sean's father, Mr. Whitney, had meticulously crafted. The irony was not lost on me. This was my opportunity to salvage what remained of my company, ensure justice for Mira's tragic demise, and lay waste to his meticulously crafted bloody business.Striding through its doors and walk
His Volition Chapter 31: Taking Over
Knocking on the door, I was greeted by the warm embrace of my mother, her eyes looking concerned."Carmen, my dear, what brings you here?" she asked.I smiled, enveloped by the familiarity of her presence. "I just wanted to check in on you, Mom. Make sure you're doing alright."Her eyes softened, a small smile at the tiny wrinkled corners of her lips. She was getting old at 60. Shame all those Botox injections and treatments had a limit. "I'm fine, Carmen. Just worried about you, that's all."I reached out and took her hand, squeezing it gently. "Don't worry about me, Mom. I'm stronger than you think."Her smile widened, a glimmer of pride shining in her eyes."I know, Carmen. You've always had a fire in you. Just promise me you'll be careful, alright?"I nodded, feeling a lump form in my throat. "I promise, Mom.”As Marcus and I stood in my mother's living room, the weight of his question hung heavy in the air. Had I forgiven her for orchestrating my marriage to Sean under prete
His Volition Chapter 32: Damning document
Sean sat in his car, his mind swirling with conflicting emotions. The events of the day had left him feeling unsettled, his thoughts consumed by the woman he called his wife.Carmen.The name echoed in his mind like a haunting melody, He couldn't shake the feeling that Carmen was using him, manipulating him for her pleasure.He drove through the city streets, his gaze flickered to the rearview mirror, catching sight of his reflection. His features were drawn and haggard, the lines of worry etched into his face like scars. He felt a pang of regret as he thought of Mira, of the woman he had once loved with all his heart.Pulling into the driveway of their home, he stepped out of the car and entered the house. The familiar scent of Carmen's perfume. He found her in the living room, her eyes sparkling with anticipation as she held out a sleek black box."Sean," she said, her voice soft and inviting. "I bought something for us."My heart skipped a beat as I took in the sight of the bondage

The ride to the hospital was a blur, the sirens wailing above the frantic sounds of the medics working to stabilize me. Carmen stayed by my side the entire time, refusing to let go even as they rushed me into the emergency room. I could see the worry in her eyes, the exhaustion and pain etched into her face, but she didn’t waver.As the doctors took over, everything went dark. The last thing I felt was the warmth of Carmen’s hand in mine, her voice pleading with me to stay, to survive.When I awoke, the world was quiet. The pain was still there, a dull ache in my abdomen, but it was manageable. I blinked, trying to adjust to the bright lights of the hospital room. The sterile smell of antiseptic filled my nostrils, and the steady beep of monitors was the only sound.Carmen was there, sitting in a chair beside my bed, her hand still holding mine. Her eyes were closed, her head resting on the edge of the bed, as if she hadn’t left my side since we arrived. She looked exhausted, but even
His Volition Chapter 67: The final gambit
Fiona’s smile twisted into something cruel. “You really thought I’d make this easy for you? No, Sean, I’m going to keep her a little longer. Just until I’m sure everything is as it should be.”Panic flared inside me. This wasn’t the plan. If Fiona didn’t release Carmen today, I didn’t know how much longer we could keep up this charade. But before I could say anything more, Fiona’s phone buzzed in her pocket. She glanced at it, her smile faltering as she read something on the screen. Her eyes snapped back to me, narrowing with suspicion.“These documents… they’re fake, aren’t they?” she hissed, her voice filled with venom.I didn’t respond. There was nothing I could say to convince her otherwise. The truth was out, and I could see the rage building in her eyes.“You thought you could trick me, Sean? You’re going to regret this. I was going to let Carmen live, but now… now I’m going to make you watch as I finish her off.”Before I could react, she yanked Evie toward her, dragging my dau
His Volition CHAPTER 66 Higher Stakes
The morning light streamed through the windows, but I felt no warmth. After the call with Fiona, I was haunted by a sense of impending doom, the silence of the house was oppressive. Every second that passed was another second Carmen was in danger. I couldn't let Fiona get away with this, but I also couldn't act recklessly and put Carmen's life at even greater risk.I decided to contact the police. It was a calculated risk, but I had to try. I couldn't fight this battle alone. The officers I met with were seasoned professionals who assured me that they would handle the situation delicately, coordinating with specialists to ensure Carmen’s safety.But Fiona was one step ahead.Later that afternoon, my phone buzzed again. This time, it was a message. No words, just a video. My heart plummeted as I opened the file.The video was shaky, the lighting dim, but it was unmistakably Carmen. She was tied to a chair, her face pale and streaked with blood and dirt. Her breathing was shallow, her e
His Volition Chapter 65: Family Ties
The house was dark, the only light coming from the dim glow of the television that I wasn't watching. My mind was too preoccupied with thoughts of Carmen and the bleak future that seemed to stretch endlessly before me. The letter she had sent replayed in my mind over and over.The shrill ring of my phone jolted me from my thoughts. I glanced at the screen, not recognizing the number. For a moment, I considered letting it go to voicemail, but something compelled me to pick up."Hello?" I answered, my voice rough with fatigue and stress.There was a moment of silence on the other end, followed by a low, familiar laugh that sent a chill down my spine."Hello, Sean. Long time no speak."I froze, the voice instantly recognizable. Fiona."What do you want, Fiona?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady, though my heart was racing. The last thing I needed right now was to deal with her.“Oh, Sean,” she purred, her voice dripping with malicious satisfaction, “I think you know exactly what I
His Volition Chapter 64: The Betrayal
The next morning, I awoke to an eerie silence in the house. It was the kind of quiet that usually followed a storm, but this time, the storm was just beginning. Carmen was already up, pacing in the living room with her phone clutched in her hand, her face pale and her eyes wide with disbelief."Carmen, what's wrong?" I asked, moving toward her, my heart sinking as I noticed the way her hands were trembling.She looked up at me in despair. "Sean, did you see the news? Did you see what they’ve said about me?"I shook my head, reaching out to take her phone. The headline on the screen made my blood run cold:“Exclusive: Carmen Whitney's Secret Battle with Infertility”The article went on to detail private and intimate struggles that Carmen and I had faced together, revealing her infertility to the world. It was a cruel invasion of our privacy, exposing something that we had only ever discussed in the safety of our home. The words were harsh, blaming her barrenness as the root cause of ta
His Volition Chapter 63: The News
The morning after the vow renewal ceremony, the house was filled with a peaceful silence, the kind that follows a night of joy and celebration. Carmen was still asleep, her face relaxed and content, and Lily was cuddled up with her stuffed animals. Everything seemed perfect, as if nothing could disrupt the happiness we had built.But life has a way of surprising you when you least expect it.I was in the kitchen, preparing breakfast, when my phone buzzed with a notification. I glanced at the screen, expecting it to be a message from a friend or perhaps Evelyn, thanking us for the wonderful event. Instead, it was a news alert.“Billionaire Sean Whitney Accused of Murdering ExWife, Mira.”My heart stopped. For a moment, I couldn’t breathe. The words on the screen blurred as panic surged through me. I quickly clicked on the link, my hands trembling, as I read the full article.“Sean Whitney, the billionaire entrepreneur known for his successful business empire, is facing shocking allegat
His Volition Chapter 62: Starting Over
Once Fiona had packed her bags, she stood by the door, looking around the house one last time. Her eyes landed on Lily’s toys scattered across the living room floor, and a fresh wave of tears welled up in her eyes.“Goodbye, Fiona,” Carmen said softly, stepping forward to give her a gentle hug. “I hope you find the help you need.”“Thank you, Carmen. For everything,” Fiona replied, her voice thick with so much emotion.I walked Fiona to the car, feeling the tension in the air as we made our way to her temporary destination. She had decided to stay with a friend until she could find a more permanent solution, and I hoped it would give her the space she needed to begin healing.When we arrived at her friend’s house, I helped her carry her bags to the door. Fiona turned to me, her eyes pleading. “Please tell Lily I love her. I didn’t mean to hurt anyone.”“I’ll tell her,” I promised, my heart aching. “But you need to focus on getting better. That’s the only way you’ll ever have a chance
His Volition Chapter 61: A Tea Party
The sun streamed through the windows, a warm glow over the living room. The air was filled with laughter. Lily had set up a pretend tea party in the middle of the floor, her stuffed animals arranged in a circle with Fiona and Carmen sitting beside her.“Here’s your tea, Mr. Bear,” Lily said, pouring imaginary tea into a tiny plastic cup. “And some cookies for you, Miss Bunny.”Fiona watched Lily with a gentle smile, her eyes following every move as she helped pour more imaginary tea. Watching them play, I felt a sense of peace. Fiona seemed to be adjusting well, and Lily was overjoyed to have her mom close.Carmen caught my eye, and we shared a smile. It seemed like things were finally falling into place. Fiona was attending her therapy sessions and working part-time at the local bookstore. Her energy was positive, and she seemed genuinely committed to making things work this time.“Would you like some tea, Daddy?” Lily asked, looking up at me with her big, bright eyes.“Of course, I’
His Volition Chapter 60: A Sacrificial Offering
When we arrived at her apartment building, the lights were off. I knocked on the door, hoping to hear her voice from inside. But there was nothing. I tried calling again, but the call went straight to voicemail.“Sean, maybe she’s just sleeping,” Carmen suggested, trying to reassure me. But I could hear the hesistation in her voice.“Maybe,” I replied, though I didn’t quite believe it myself.Just as we were about to leave, the door to the neighboring apartment opened, and an elderly woman peered out.“Are you looking for Fiona?” she asked, her voice curious.“Yes, we are. Have you seen her tonight?” I asked, hoping for some clue.The woman shook her head. “I heard her leave earlier, but she hasn’t come back. I thought it was strange since she usually comes back by now.”A cold knot tightened in my stomach. Fiona was out there somewhere, and we had no idea where or in what condition.Carmen and I decided to check a few of Fiona’s usual haunts—the places she might go when she needed to
