Thea In shock, I raised my head quickly to look on the other side of the bed but I found no one then my eyes went across the room where I found a broad chest, tall, muscular man standing by the window. Hands in his short as he looked out the window. Fuck Thea! How did I get into his bed?I was livid, after saying I'd watch him the entire night I found myself waking up in his bed. Did he carry me here or did I sleep walk myself into his bed? The former would seem more true because I don't sleep and walk. Damn it! I panicked not knowing how to face him. I couldn't even quietly leave the room and I also needed to make sure that he was fine. As if he noticed that I was awake, Angel turned slowly to face me. He was shirtless and my eyes caught his bandaged chest. He looked down on it and back to me. I already had my hand palming my lips. The bandage had blood stains on it and I wondered if his wounds had ripped. "Did you have enough sleep?" Angel said breaking my attention."Did it r
TheaI stayed in my room the entire day and only had company when Cassie and Camilo had come to visit me. They noticed my uneasiness and had asked about it. I made up a weak excuse and I knew they didn't believe me. Florentine spent her day at the clinic tending to some of the injured guards. She was the only person I could open up to about what happened between Angel and I. Camilo would have been my first option since she was almost my bestfriend at this point but Cassie was here with her and I didn't want to raise her expectations. Knight and Caspian had returned later in the evening from their investigation on Sparrow's whereabouts and the girls had to go to their partners. Here I was, reminded of my sad love life. My mind was on Angel the entire day and now that I was alone, I felt very lonely. To think that he was the only one who could take away my loneliness yet I was hiding from him. I was also afraid that he'd come knocking at my door anytime but since he haden't showed up
AngelMy lips lengthened into an amused smile the moment Thea left my room, I bit my lip and let my hand feel her on my door. Her scent still lingered and I swear it drove me insane. Fuck....I should have kissed her more deeply but I was afraid she would resist if I went further. She was obviously confused about what she wanted and I was impatient to know how she truly felt about me. She cared about me, that I was sure of but what I didn't know was if she loved me as much as she used to. Thinking About it only made my heart constrict painfully. I wanted all her love just like I did before I put her through hell. I hoped that one day she could forgive me and love me as much as I have and will always love her. The stinging pain from my chest as a result of my injury wasn't much of a bother as I kept replaying images of Thea in my mind. Florentine came to tend to me this morning before going to the clinic and I couldn't subdue the urge to ask her about Thea. I wanted to go after he
TheaI had just told Florentine that I didn't have the courage to talk about the child I lost and then I heard Angel behind us. The fear that gripped me knowing that I had to talk about my pain and not just it but letting Angel know that he would have been a father. I knew this would hurt him and after everything that had happened I was scared to know how much it would. At least I got a chance to be with our child but he never got the chance to, what could be more painful? I really couldn't catch my breath with the shock I had just experienced from almost being caught, so when Florentine had wanted to leave me there with him I had to escape one way or the other by feigning annoyance when what I truly felt was relieve.I knew I had exposed one truth, which was the fact that he still owned my heart without even trying, I knew knowing this would change a lot for Angel and maybe me. What if he never let go?A loud knock startled me, taking me away from my thought. I turn towards my doo
AngelSo many things were just going wrong in my life at the same time. I couldn't remember a day I went by being happy without interruption. Guilt, anger and regret had been the emotions I felt the most and now sorrow was added to it. The feelings of loosing my child, of never being able to meet it tore me. I felt tortured with these emotions and for the most part I hated myself. How could Thea still love me that much after the great pain I caused her? I had told her in the past that I'd love to prove my love to her and not just say it but everything I had done so far were the opposite of it. I heard Thea call after me after I left her room but I was too furious at myself and my situation to stop and hear her. I just needed to be away from her and everyone. If I could I'd run away from me.I drove on high speed despite the risk, I knew I wasn't emotionally stable but I needed it to satiate my anger to a certain degree. My thoughts were a disaster, I couldn't think right and I di
TheaI watched Angel walk out on everyone. It was clear how much knowing what he knew hurt him. Florentine had begged me not to enter into more arguments with him because of their present situation. He needed a clear mind to think since Sparrow was still out there and obviously plotting. I agreed with her.I didn't know it was possible at first but after that tough talk with Angel in my room, I felt like a huge weight was lifted from my shoulders. I had been running away from this conversation too long, little did I know it was what I needed to start the process of healing. I apologized to everyone for letting the situation get to this and I was glad for their understanding. They had asked me never to feel bad or guilty about it which made me feel at ease and I was grateful for that. "I'll go talk to him." I said to them to which they agreed to. I went after Angel, hastening my steps. By the time I got to his room, the door was already locked. I took a deep breath then proceeded to
KnightI felt sad for Angel but I didn't regret my decision for not telling him. Thea was the one in pain and needed her time to heal. All we did was respect her decision. Cassie on the other hand was feeling guilty and had blamed herself for not being brave enough. She believed if she had spoken up the lose would have been avoided. "You should get some rest." I said to her when we got into her room. She nodded sadly and I pulled her gently into my arms. I dropped a kiss on her forehead and whispered. "You stood up to your brother the most so don't ever feel you didn't do enough and you were only respecting Thea's decision." Cassie sighed softly and lifted her face to look at me. "I didn't trust my brother enough not to harm his child. I think Angel feels disappointed about it. That I saw him that way.""So what if you told him and he reacted how you had imagined. No one knew anything so don't beat yourself up about it." I said hoping it would console her. She nodded and lifted her
Knight"You should at least see me naked before deciding to leave."My lips curl up into a smirk at her boldness. Having that naughtiness within her innocence was a charm I couldn't deny that she possessed. To think that some motherfucker had gotten a taste of my princess was driving me insane. I could feel my face contort into a frown, I wasn't the vengeful type but I had this sudden urge to get my hands on whoever the motherfucker was. My hunch kept pining to Damian. My eyes twitch at the thought but then I'm quickly distracted by the flip of Cassie's hair as she pulls the rubber off her hair which she had packed in a ponytail. I let my gaze fall on her top seeing that her nipples were very visible as they protruded showing the roundness and firmness. My lips were parted craving for a taste and my cock hardened the more and trying to fight it's way through my pants. Cassie dips her hand sensously into her waistline, she trails it slowly till she got to her button where she enti
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
