KnightI stare in amusement as I watched Cassie. She was getting drunk but this shit was becoming fun as well. "Tell me more about him." I say getting very invested. "I'm still very much aware of myself Knight, don't try to play me." She said and I dip my head finding it amusing as well. It was only a matter of few more shots and she'd get drunk. I wonder if I should really play this game."Okay, pardon me. Do you want more?" Fuck yes, I was sly enough and I was going to play the game. I poured another shot for her and she gulped. She requested for another and I helped her with it. Maybe this was what she needed, she had been stiff ever since she returned from school. She probably just needed to be free to express all her held up emotions. "So, do you have a boyfriend?" "No...." She quickly says sounding disgusted at the idea. I was taken aback by it but another curiosity was unlocked. "Why?" "Why not?" She says and laughs out loud. Now she was drunk. She tried to take another s
AngelAfter fucking Natalia to my fill, I washed up in the bathroom and when I came out, she was gone. I was glad, I didn't want to see her the moment I stepped into the room. She knew the drill, except I wanted to have her home she didn't need to spend another minute in my room. I wore my clothes getting ready to leave since I lost interest in watching the performance of other strippers neither was I going to entertain any other type of fun.I was also aware of the game being hosted at the casino right now. It was the regular games we participated in while having whores around us. I was just going to head home and face my reality of feeling empty, unloved and angry. Caspian and Knight weren't here with me either to fill up the space and even though I knew Sparrow had returned it wasn't time to confront him.I'd get to meet him at the Casino that will be hosted by Antonio. I'd really like to see his reaction when he were face to face. He knew for sure he had chewed more than he s
CassieI felt myself moving in bed but there was a huge obstruction before me, my eyes were heavy and so was my head, when the faint smell of alcohol hit my nostrils, I remembered I had drank the other night. I was hit with realization and my eyes bulged open to see the figure of a man holding me in his arms. He felt warm and a second smell mixed with that of alcohol hit me. It was his scent, one that I was familiar to and intoxicated by.It was him, Knight. "Oh my goodness!" I yelled jolting out of his arms and out of bed. My lips were spread into a circle, I was shocked and confused at the same time wondering how he got into my bed. I watched Knight sit up in bed so calmly, he was shirtless, showing off his broad chest, biceps, stomach packs and bulging chest. Damn it! I found myself gulping feeling heat of desire wash over me. I was in his arms all night. "How did you get into my room?" I asked dread filling me for whatever might have transpired between us. I hugged my body, ru
AngelWhen I got home that morning I went straight to my office and had a bottle of wine. I found my way back to my room and fell on the couch. I didn't intend on getting drunk again, not after what happened the last time where I kissed a maid thinking she was Thea. Again, Thea. She tortured me with her very existence. Every fucking thing always connected to her. As usual Florentine had waited for me to arrive from the club, she noticed my mood and asked what was wrong but I ignored her because there was no point in telling her. From what I observed, not everyone in the house shared my anger and feeling of betrayal. I knew they were careful not to say it but aside Knight and Caspian the ladies seemed to have sided with Thea. I could just feel it, not even my sister, Cassie believed Thea was guilty. "Lola called." Florentine said when I didn't respond to her. I checked my phone and saw several missed calls from her. She had called like I was a missing person. What could be so import
TheaI knew Angel had gone to the club that night and no one needed to tell me what he had done there. It hurt to think about it but I guess I was getting used to all the pain. After morning duty, I was informed by Irene that I was to go for a check up with Florentine. The news came as a surprise to me because I had no such discussions with her. She probably just wanted to give me some food and let me rest at her place or it could Camilo's doing. Florentine was at least the safest reason to take me away from work right now. I knew this whole thing was getting on Irene's nerves but I didn't care, I needed the rest and my baby did. I went to Florentine's room and was surprised when I saw the girls with her too.Camilo and Cassie, they all stood before me beaming with smiles. I couldn't stop myself from smiling back but it came out with tears. I missed them so much, I missed us together like this. "So are we having a hug or not?" Cassie said spreading her arms towards me. I wiped my
AngelWhen my eyes locked with Thea, I wasn't ready for the reaction that came next because it began to make me doubt everything I had believed so far. Why was she in such pain?"Thea, Thea what's wrong?" Florentine yelled holding Thea by the hand. I too was shocked at her sudden reaction. I didn't know what to do but I was shaken from the look of pain she had. What was wrong?And why was she acting this way? "I just want to go...." She cried with tears spilling from her eyes. My heart clenched seeing her show so much pain, my head was a storm of confusion and for the very first time I began to doubt everything. . "Thea!" Florentine yelled as her feet suddenly went wobbly almost falling her to her feet. I didn't know when my legs moved in a haste but I was standing next to Thea with my hands wrapped around her waist and my body shaken from fear.She was scaring me. "Thea, what's wrong? What's wrong with her Florentine!" I directed my worry through anger to Florentine. She said not
TheaMy eyes struggled while fluttering open, I felt weak and restricted and it somehow registered in my mind that I was lying down but then I remembered having this awful cramps... Wait, where was I? I finally opened my eyes to see the ceiling above me, I looked down on my belly and immediately my hands went down to feel it. Even though I was yet to have a bump I still tried to feel it to know if it was still in there.My baby... What had happened to it? I only hoped it was fine. No, It needed to be fine. I remembered being soaked in my own blood and then everything went blurry and now I was in this bed. It scared me seeing the amount of blood I had lost. Was it possible that it survived? "Thea....you're awake." I heard Camilo speak and then came Cassie's voice. I turned to my side to see their relieved faces and my face turned pale. They knew...."How are you feeling?" Cassie asked stroking my hair gently. How I felt didn't matter, I just wanted to know what happened to my baby.
TheaToday, Florentine had gone to get the result of the ultrasound. I had prayed with all my heart these two days to have nothing but good news but I couldn't help being scared of the worst. I had not touched a thing since the day I collapsed, I knew it was Angel's doing and even though we had an encounter back then at the clinic, the hurt and regret he expressed to me that day meant nothing to me and I could never forgive him if anything happened to our baby. I had not seen Angel since that day as well, it seemed he was respecting my decision and staying away. He didn't know about our child yet, it was just a secret I shared with the girls and Knight now. Cassie and Camilo had not come visit either because I had asked Florentine to keep them away, I couldn't face them, all they did was support me and I hid such big secret from them. My patience was running out as I waited for Florentine, I had called several times but she wouldn't pick up. Out of curiosity I went into the bathro
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
