2021-02-13 21:28:21MARCUS'S POV
She had betrayed me.
Everything was nothing but a fucking lie.
I slumped to my knees pathetically and scaremed.
I fell in love with her.
When I glanced at my phone the screen was broken and the darn thing kept showing her pictures like it was mocking me.
The pain in my chest intensified.
I tossed the phone across the wall and it broke apart and went off.
I poured out my feelings,my dark past and the demons inside me. I still can't believe that I fucking trusted her.
She played me and I fell for it like a gullible idiot I was.
Someone kept knocking on the door calling out my name,but I couldn't hear anything the demons inside me had taken over and they were pissed.
I kept throwing things against the wall.
My demons were on a rampage.
The lyrics inside me kept mocking me.

MARCUS'S POVAfter interviewing almost ten candidates none of them had impressed me.They were all useless.I kept tapping on my wooden desk impatiently.I closed my eyes and counted one to ten. Doctor Alan always said that it would help me relax whenever I was stressed and frustrated.I opened my eyes and took a deep breath."Relax Marcus."I had to put on my mask and bury all the emotions I felt. Because it was a sign of weakness and I couldn't let them bring me to my knees.Like some weakling.Over the past years I stopped communicating with my father a few days ago. Minnie had called me that he was on his deathbed.He wanted to see me.But I wanted nothing to do with him because he had rejected me.

I'm surprised that their marriage has lasted this long.I shot my basketball through the hoop and scored. I was good at basketball but I was never interested in making a career.It was just a hobby and a distraction I needed to keep me busy.I joined the school track team to keep myself busy. It was a good workout and it changed my physique. Even though I was just a fourteen year old boy the work gave me a six-pack and a few hard core muscles.I was re

I liked taking cold showers during night time.They made me relax and forget about the shit I was in.When I opened the door I was stunned to find Tara in my room.We were on a business trip together but I was surprised to find her sitting on my bed wearing a white robe that reached her creamy thighs."Tara you should leave immediately" I muttered coolly eyeing her curiously.She shook her head negatively.She reminded me so much of my innocent Chelsea.I'll leave Marcus but first I want you to fuck me" she said softly in a seductive voice.My eyes widened in shock but I recovered fast and brushed off the weird feeling."Tara we have an early meeting tomorrow morning and-"

UNKNOWN POVHis masculine hands explored my body dangerously. I felt my core throbbing as he hand brushed my pubic bone.He was tempting me on purpose.I'll play his mind games as well.I rubbed my ass against his groin and he groaned as the room went silent.Reality dawned in as I noticed that everyone was watching our show.I quickly excused myself and went to the bathroom and I'm glad that he didn't bother to follow me.I needed some space to cool down and relax. I could still feel his hands on my body touching me.Fuck.My panties were drenched all because of this stranger.I took deep breaths trying to calm myself down. I felt like a wild animal on the loose.He made me feel hot and dirty. Surprisingly I liked it and I craved more of his touch,scent,his minty breath with a slight hint of whisky.

He chuckled lightly and his eyes met mine once more.Who was this man? And did he have such a strong effect on me?He laughs and his laughter slowly fades."That's interesting Ms.?" He pressed innocently.He wanted my name. I wasn't going to give in that easily to Mr. Hot stuff.A smile curved my lips and I giggled softly.The dim light showed off his facial features.Fuck he was hot."Haha nice try I'm not giving you my name."I could feel the sexual tension buzzing between us.Shit was it that obvious?While I was lost in my thoughts he sipped his whisky and smiled at me.His gaze is no longer soft and gentle.

"I am an only child so stop this nonsense father this wedding is going to take place!" She yelled angrily. Mr. Eden sighed deeply. "Just let me explain everything," he said quietly. MR.

KELSEY POVI was really glad to have such good friends like Jane and Sasha. Once we arrived at the wedding venue they all made sure to stay by my side.I looked at the entrance wishing that it was getting married to Marcus and not that witch Tara. Maybe Marcus is blinded by her money if that's the case then I'm very disappointed in him."Are you going to be ok?" Jane asked curiously.I nodded quietly."Yeah I want to do this Jane it's time I also move on and try to forget about Marcus."Jane gave me a small smile and nodded.I was really tired of getting asked the same question over and over again my answer also didn't change.

My mom doesn't like it when dad spoils me with goodies and luxurious things.I glanced at my diamond wrist watch impatiently mom was supposed to be here hours ago. I hate it when people are late especially on my big day."Miss Tara don't be upset I'm sure your mother will be here soon" my makeup artist Julie muttered coolly.I rolled my eyes at her while she applied pink blush on both of my cheeks.I looked very pretty."Julie you don't even know how my mom acts with me gosh she treats me like I'm not her daughter or something."I scoffed in annoyance." You know Julie we never get along with each other and honestly I don't li

KELSEY POVI cannot believe that Marcus Is finally declaring his love for me. I felt happy and sad at the same time. I wish things were different between us so that we would start over but I could see that it was already too late for us because Marcus was officially going to be someone's husband tomorrow.I stared at him with wide eyes, tears still rolling down my cheeks and surprisingly he wiped them away."Marcus you've destroyed everything between us and I don't know if I'll ever trust you again" she whispers softly.He nodded quietly.I know he has confessed his true feelings to me but still wasn't enough to fix everything between us."It's not enough…" I whispered softly."I know Kelsey" he rasped quietly as he stroked both of my cheeks gently. I had missed him terribly having him so close to me aga

I couldn't let him see me now and walked into the rain to try and escape him but he kept following me."Kelsey wait!" I Marcus yells as he runs after me. The both of us were already soaking wet. He eventually caught up with me and held me by the wrist, stopping me midway."Please just listen to what I have to say..." He pleaded.Anger flashed in my eyes but I nodded anyway.I've loved Marcus since childhood and I want him in my life more than ever but the different circumstances keep getting in the way, always stopping us from reuniting.

KELSEY POVI mostly spent my two weeks living indoors just laying in bed, watching TV, listening to music and stuffing my face and that kind of became my routine.I tried calling Sasha multiple times to try and apologize to her but she never answered any of my calls and I honestly think that I've lost my best friend for good this time. I took her advice for granted and now she walked out of my life because I can't handle my shit. The mere thought of her broke my heart and I just wanted to cry all day.Jane would occasionally come to check up on me but I kept assuring her that I was fine."Are you sure that you're doing fine? Jane asked in a worried tone.I gave her a small smile." Yes fine."" I could spend the night Kelsey just to make sure that you have all the necessary care."Jane was a good friend but I was doing fine on my ow

KELSEY POVI sat on the sofa and stuffed my face with oreo ice cream. Jane and Sasha kept exchanging weird looks. I was watching a soup opera. It was very cliche but I enjoyed watching it. Besides it was interesting and it kept me entertained."Kelsey you know that you can't go on like this you need to tell Marcus before it's late..." Sasha begs.I stopped eating and stared at her in disbelief before I could reply. Jane interrupted me."Yes Kelsey Sasha is right I mean look at you it's been weeks now and nothing has changed. You're stressing yourself and this is not good for the baby" Jane mutters quitely.I was capable of taking care of my own child alone. I didn't need Marcus or his support."I think I'm handling everything alright without Marcus involved. I don't need him and he has no right to be involved in my life. He doesn't even kn

KELSEY POVI was really bad at love and it reminds me of that song bad at love by halsey. It feels like the song is all about me.I just felt like drowning in my own sorrows and being lost. Lost at sea to finally find where I belong. Maybe I had a future but Marcus wasn't going to be a part of it and that was the most painful part of all.I could picture a new house and soft giggles being heard outside. I would be in the doorway watching my baby girl play. She would be adventurous just like me she would love to explore just like dora the explorer.Hmmm. The mere thought just made my heart swell with joy. But I felt guilty consuming me again. Would my baby hate me because I never had the guts to tell her father the truth about her actual existence?I feel like I'm keeping her father away from her and once she's older she'll eventually find out the bitter truth and hate me.The mere thought left me in ruin

MARCUS POVThis whole meeting was a damn scam there was no partnership this was just some cover up just to announce this contract marriage. I knew that Tara was many things but I didn't expect her to stoop this low just to get what she wants. I was so furious at first she messed with Kelsey and now she thinks that she can just ruin my life. Even if we would get married it would be a loveless marriage because I am not in love with Tara her purpose was to only fulfill my needs but that phase has passed and I'm not that kind of man anymore because Kelsey changed me.TARA POVI can't believe that Marcus walked out on me. I mean this is our party and we are supposed to celebrate our engagement.Once dad was done talking to one of his business associates I decided to approach him."Father I'm so angry right now why didn't you stop Marcus from leaving?"
