Thea I still couldn't believe what I had done yet. I was in Angel's arms naked, with sensations still lingering in my body from the passionate love we made. I watched his throat move as he gulped down fluid and when I breathed against his throat, the air slapped his sweet scent back into my nose. I shut my eyes as I let myself savour it and how it affected my body. Angel raised his arm to my shoulder and began to rub it, warming me up. This just felt right, being in his arms. That was exactly where I belonged yet a certain nervousness crept it's way in. I was terribly late and was certain that I was being looked for by now. My mum and Alfred might have also noticed Angel's absence. I had nothing to defend myself even if I lied but what I knew right now was that I had to snap out of my ecstasy and leave Angel's room. The only thing that held me down was my wobbly legs. With the way Angel made mad love to me, ravaging my entire body with a strong need, my legs felt so weak that it
Thea A worried gaze settled over her and I noticed the phone in her hand. Alfred and I adjusted to seem less tensed but her eyes showed that she had noticed. "Lola.... Hey." I called forcing a smile. She forced a smile as well making things awkward between us. "Is there something bothering you?" Alfred asked sounding humble. Even though he knew she was with Angel, he seemed to accord her the respect as his greatest investor. Lola forced another smile. "Have either of you seen Angel?" She asked and quickly trailed her eyes over my body. A frown settles over her face as suspicion clouds her eyes. It was clear that I did a very bad job at covering up signs of my affair."No." Alfred said and looked at me sternly. It was getting really difficult to stand on my two feet when I was also standing on lies told and lies I was about to tell. "No...." I reply as well when it seemed as though Lola was waiting for an answer from me. I tried to act calm but I was failing woefully, especially
AngelI watched Thea go with Alfred. It hurt to see that she chose him over me but I understood her. She didn't want to raise any more suspicions about us and with her mother in the picture, she needed to protect her relationship. Though I wasn't sure it was redeemable now. "Angel...." A weak feminine voice broke me out of my thoughts. I had just realized that Lola was still beside me. I had been too focused on Thea that I forgot about her. I looked at Lola and fuck me! Her eyes were pooling with tears now. I swallowed hard, hoping the guilt I felt right now went down with the fluid. My chest constricted as I saw through the pain in her eyes. I knew I had hurt Lola tonight. I may have been inconsiderate of her feelings because all I cared about tonight was Thea. I tried to speak but couldn't find the right words to say. I messed up so bad with Lola. She didn't deserve this but it was already done. "Did you even know I was still standing here?" She asked and a tear fell off her e
Thea Realizing I was in Alfred's room made me feel uneasy. I turned around to face him and he was taking his watch off to place on the table. A dirty and disgusting thought got into my head but I shook it off immediately. Alfred wasn't that kind of person. "Why did you bring me here?" I asked and he looked a bit surprised. "I didn't know you would find it uncomfortable here. I was going to leave you alone to rest as much as you wanted but if you don't like it....""It's fine. As long as I'm left alone." I said forcing a smile. Alfred nodded and I moved towards the bed to sit while waiting for him to leave. He got water from the fridge and gulped a glass. My throat felt itchy from dryness and as if he knew, he gestured the glass to me."Do you care for water or wine?" I wanted to say wine feeling like I needed a lot more than water but I didn't want to feel the least tispsy around him. "Water please." I said. He smiled dryingly. "You can take off your shoes at least, they must be
I woke up in Alfred's house the next morning, I knew this because the sorrounding looked nothing like my mum's place. I may have visited Alfred's house several times but I had never slept over. The shock I felt when I realized I had slept in Alfred's place was overwhelming. I began to breath heavily thinking of the different scenarios that may have played. I was still on my party dress and I felt fine under my pant so I eliminated the idea that he may have had his way with me. Alfred had drugged me to sleep so that he could take me to his house but how could he do something so unthinkable? I couldn't help but think that my mum was aware. How did she allow this if it was true? I was confused. I could remember Alfred's voice when he asked about the truth as to what happened between Angel and I. I also remembered him saying he wasn't going to leave the party untill he found out the truth. So now, my fear was if he did find out the truth and what would be his reaction. A maid came i
TheaAfter three days of staying in Alfred's place, he wouldn't release me nor let me speak to my mum. I was starting to believe that I had been kidnapped but it just didn't seem right. Alfred wasn't capable of that. I knew how much my mum wanted to keep me away from Angel. I'd be surprised if she had a hand in this but I wouldn't put it far from her to be capable of doing so. Breakfast today with Alfred was in silence just like the previous day. I was angry at my mum. How could she permit this? And for how long was I to stay here?"Your mum called." Alfred said, breaking the silence between us. I paused for a moment before speaking. "Why?" I asked letting my anger show. He glanced up to look at me and continued with his food. He was still angry at me. I broke his heart to pieces so I shouldn't expect less."What did she say?" I said changing my approach. "She wanted to know how you were doing." I drop my spoon getting more annoyed."So she couldn't speak to me herself to know ho
TheaI quickly stood up and wiped off my tears to see who it was. An old woman came through the door and I patted my face to look less teary. I faked a smile as I began moving towards the woman. She was Maryanne, Alfred's grandmother. "Maryanne...." I said excitedly as I walked to hug the woman."Thea... My child." She called, observing me from the distance. We hugged each other and only pulled away when we were both satisfied with the hug. Maryanne held my arms as she watched me joyfully. "I had no idea that you were here. Where's my grandson?" She asked looking over my shoulder. "He left not long ago but I'm sure he'll be down in a moment." "Thank you Thea." She said as I helped her with her belongings.Alfred's Nana always let Alfred know before she visited him but I didn't think she did so this time. Alfred wouldn't have let her come for fear that I might expose him for keeping me against my will. "Where are these girls, they should be doing this. Lauren!" She yelled, callin
Angel's povTHREE DAYS AGOI went to Thea's house the next morning to know how she was faring. She haden't been picking her calls nor replying her texts. At a point she switched off her phone. I didn't want to call Scott but I decided to let down my pride and do it but my emotions were messed up the moment he told me she slept at Alfred's place. I got angry and extremely jealous. We made love last night, so how could she follow Alfred to his house and sleep over...."Are you still there?" Scott asked but I couldn't answer, as my anger got the best of me. "I know you're angry Angel but it seemed Louisa put her up to it." Something stirred in me the moment he said that and my interest grew twice more. "What do you mean?" I asked getting impatiently. "Thea has never slept at Alfred's place before. To be honest with you, I find it suspicious." I became suspicious and worried as well. I definitely did not trust Louisa not after what she had done to keep Thea away from me. I should hav
Chapter 4 I thought catching my husband making love to my bestfriend was the cruelest sight I could ever see but the pain that came with him making love to her in my helplessness and going ahead to propose was out of this world. I had no idea how I was able to survive but Miguel and Nicole were not done with me. A week after Miguel had proposed, he made arrangements for me to be transfered to a care givers home where he paid for my treatments and care. Back then, I had wondered how he intended to get married while he was still legally married to me but one day, he returned with a court document that permitted him to file for a divorce without involving the second party. He had knelt in front of me that day, explaining how he needed to move on with his life. He apologized for everything he had done and went on to be a bastard by saying he would have wanted me to do the same if he were in my shoes. He had no idea what it meant to be in my shoes. I had been here for a month now, no
Chapter 3 "It hurts." I could hear my voice echo in my head. My head hurt. I could feel a weight in my eyes as I struggled to pull them open, when I finally did, what I saw were blurred images, I could hardly make out the meaning only the image before me. I tried to move something else, my hand maybe but I had no feelings there. I tried to talk but I couldn't find my voice then I heard someone speak. I listened carefully and could finally make out who the sound belonged to. A familiar pain struck me, one that I desperately wished would seize and never return. It was the pain from betrayal. The cruelest form of it. "I think Racheal has suffered enough Miguel, It's time for us to let her go." What was that witch talking about? I yelled within me, recognizing the female's voice to be no other than Nicole, my best... I swore at myself for almost giving her the title. So I meant, my ex-bestfriend. "I know it's hard to pull out your wife from life support but it's the best thing you c
Chapter 2 Racheal "Miguel! Nicole!" I cried out their names. My voice almost got lost with those two words as the weight of my heartache was carried in my voice. Tears spilled uncontrollably from my eyes. I was still praying that I was caught up in a vivid dream. As if catching them cheating wasn't enough, I saw Nicole open her eyes to meet my gaze, shock enveloped her but then her eyes went dreamy instantly as my husband was still ramming his way through her. "M-miguel... Your wife." She managed to stutter but Miguel wasn't stopping. He made love to her like a wild beast breaking what was left of my heart. " Miguel...." Nicole called again to warn him but he didn't stop. "I can't stop, I'm about ahhh!" He made one last deep thrust into her releasing a deep groan as well. I gasped, panting for air as I couldn't bear the sight any longer. I clutched on the ground hitting my chest as if to stop the pain. It was after Miguel had released inside Nicole did he seem to realize my pr
DIVORCED! MARRIED HIS RIVAL Chapter 1 Racheal Who would have thought that an innocent surprise to my husband would turn into my worst nightmare? It was two days to my wedding anniversary with Miguel Elliot, my husband and highschool sweetheart. We had been in love for seven years and were married for a year now. He was my everything, I trusted him more than I trusted anyone. Even though he had promised to be back before our anniversary, I was too impatient to wait so I decided to visit him in the next town where he had a business meeting. I hoped he liked my surprise. "Mrs Elliot, I'm sorry but you can't go in." Maya, his personal assistant said, I could see the way her hands trembled and the way her entire body fidgeted when she spoke. At first I understood her, she was just doing her job but when she kept on insisting that I couldn't see my husband I became annoyed. "Are you sure you know who I am?" "Of course I do, you're Mrs. Elliot but I'm really sorry. My boss instruc
Epilogue Thea was five months into her pregnancy, and as agreed by her and Angel, they were going to do a gender reveal with the entire family. Decorations had been set up for the day, and they decided to use blue and pink as the general color theme, representing the male and female gender.Angel and Thea weren't the only ones with preferences for their child's sex. While Thea wanted a boy who looked like Angel, Angel wanted a girl who looked like her. Similarly, Camila and Caspian wanted a boy so he could be Casimir's age and play with him, while Cassandra and Knight wanted a girl. Cassie wanted a girl she could twin with in dresses, play with makeup, and do other fun things. Knight wanted the same because they already had a boy, and it would be balanced to have a princess too.Florentine kept her preference to herself; one could say she simply wanted another baby in the mansion, regardless of gender.While Louisa and Scott also wanted a grandkid, it did
The joy Angel and I felt when we got the news of our pregnancy was out of this world. We had decided to shift our honeymoon to three months later, so that we could truly savor each other during that time.Before we left for our honeymoon, we had a general gathering with everyone and announced that we were expecting a baby. We had asked Florentine to keep it a secret until that very moment. The entire house erupted with excitement. I had not expected such an intense reaction from everyone. They instantly started debating what gender they wanted, each with their own personal reasons.I thought surprising everyone was all the surprises I had to give until we went for our honeymoon, but Angel had something for me too.Angel revealed to me his new tech company building. I had no idea he had launched an app that had been running for the past four years. I was so proud of him but had questions."Why did he do drugs if he had all this?" I asked. I also wanted to know if he funded all that thr
TheaI was throwing up for the fourth time since four in the morning. I was exhausted, and it was evident through the bags that formed under my eyes. I hated the way I felt. This had started two days ago, but I hadn't thought much of it, remembering that I'd tasted something my belly rejected the smell of earlier. I still felt irritated by the food and thought it had to be the reason, but after throwing up at night and then four times into the morning, it was getting suspicious.Angel hadn't slept at all last night; he'd been there for me, making sure my situation didn't get worse. He'd tried to convince me to let him call Florentine over, but I wouldn't let him.We even missed breakfast, and Florentine had to check on us that morning. That was when we told her about my symptoms. Florentine twisted her lips trying not to smile, she seemed amused. We knew what she was suspecting, but she wouldn't say and only asked us to drop by at the clinic so she could conduct some tests.The oth
AngelAfter our wedding, Thea and I didn't go to our reception immediately, we had agreed to go see my mum like we did after our engagement. To show her that we were finally married, so we drove over to the hospital from the church. Driving to the hospital, I felt emotional but it wasn't sadness that my mum was vegetative and couldn't be with us in our happiest day, It was gladness that I could proudly tell her that I got my girl. "Let's go see mum." I had told Thea and she excitedly nodded, showing off her ring. Once we got to the hospital, I weaved my hand into Thea's hand and took her to mum's room. We sat before her, placing our hands above hers. "Mum...." I called and felt tears sting my eyes. I tried to laugh it off but it kept spilling. I had never cried this much in a day in my entire life and Thea was mostly the reason. "Go on my love. You can do this. I'm sure mum wants to hear." Thea encouraged me and I nodded finding strength in her support. "Oh God! I wish she was p
AngelThe moment I saw Thea step into the church, my entire world froze, time stopped like it never did before. I could hear myself gasp so clearly, the way my heart raced, I could even swear that I heard the way my blood flowed through my veins. That was how quiet the world around me went so that I could concentrate on what matters, on the one person that mattered the most....Thea. She was otherworldly, she was the prettiest human on earth. No one, I meant absolutely no one could compare, no one could beat her beauty in my eyes. Her soul was the purest and her love was the purest form of love I had experienced in a human. She had come into my life and completely captivated me, without my permission, without holding back at how much love she could make me feel for her. She was the essence in my existence. She was everything to me. I was the luckiest man on earth to have her standing before me, confessing her love to love me despite everything. I was the luckiest to have her be my
