Chapter 5

Aaron’s POV

"What the fuck are you doing here’" she asked me angrily, looking at me in disbelief.

‘This was the only room available’ I said tiredly as i was just waking up. Her eyes sparked, what I said made her more angry and agitated, if looks could kill I would be 6 foot under the ground now. Thank God it couldn’t.

‘And what gave you the right to come in and lay on the bed?’ she asked catching me off guard. I felt offended.

‘Excuse me?’ I questioned immediately.

‘You could have laid on the floor or the couch for all I cared’ she said and I scoffed and I immediately left the room and house. I was angry but I couldn’t show my anger, not in front of her.

The thought of her face when she was angry calmed me down a little. Her messy hair and a little drool by the side of her lips. It only made her prettier, her face appeared before me, and I smiled. Even though I was angry at her, I couldn't help but think about how beautiful she was.

I drove to my house to freshen up. After I did that, I made a quick breakfast and headed out. I headed to my go-to cafe that I went to whenever I needed to clear my head. I entered and saw Chloe was already there.

She was my fling, I went to her whenever I needed to have sex, I was a man, and I needed these things. I went ahead to my regular seat and tried to avoid her, but she saw me and headed to where I was seated.

‘Hi Aaron, it’s been a while’ she said as she leaned forward in a seductive manner, normally my cock would have stirred and I would have dragged her off to somewhere quiet and had sex with her, but I couldn’t, all I could think about was Lois.

‘I am married now Chloe’ I said to her, and she just smirked.

‘Being betrothed never stopped you’ she said, and I felt a hint of guilt. She was right. It never stopped me, and I actually felt disgusted with myself right now.

‘I am off to get us coffee, I will be back’ she said as she walked away. I sat in silence and thought of ways to get rid of Chloe. I couldn’t keep her near me again, I would never do anything to hurt Lois, never again.

I felt some pairs of eyes on me and guessed they were Chloe’s. I looked up and saw they were Lois’s. She stared at me intensely, and I stared at her back. It felt like a staring contest.

Her name was called, and she proceeded to get her coffee. I was a little bit disappointed. That was the most interaction I have had with her in a while, without being shut out.

Chloe came back with the coffee, and I felt disgusted.

‘I would leave now honey’ she said and planted a kiss on my lips catching me off guard, I looked over at Lois praying she didn’t see this, but she did and immediately stormed out of the cafe.

I pulled away from Chloe.

‘Don’t you dare try what you just did again’ I said angrily and stormed out. She tried to say something, but I didn’t wait to hear. All I could think about was Lois.

I was already in a tight spot with her, and this just made it worse. I noticed she had already left the cafe and figured she would have gone home, so I immediately went straight home.

I was right. When I got home, her car was packed out front. I entered the house, scared. Yes, I was scared of Lois, she was really scary when angry, I can only imagine now.

I entered the room quietly and noticed she was sitting on the couch. I couldn’t say anything because the atmosphere was so tense, so I just entered the bathroom.

I took a cold bath and felt more relaxed. I came out and saw she was still in the position I left her, her hair in disarray and her eyes showing slight anger. It made her more cute and beautiful. I summoned everything in me to tell her exactly what happened so that she would not misunderstand.

I noticed she wasn’t even looking at my face she was looking straight at my abs, and I smirked.

‘You can stare all you want, I am your husband after all’ I said, and her face immediately became so red, and I chuckled quietly. She was so pretty when she blushed.

‘You wish’ she hissed and proceeded to leave the room, but I hadn’t explained the situation to her.

‘Wait’ I called her out, and she turned back at me.

‘I am sorry about the cafe, she kissed me, I was caught off guard, I used to date her’ I said rushing all I had to say.

‘And why would I care? Like I said, this isn’t a love marriage, so you can do what you want’ she said, and something in me just snapped. I wanted her to stop feeling like this towards me, I wanted her to know I will always protect her, I wanted her to know only she had my heart, I wanted her to know I was head over heels for her.

I slowly moved towards her, with my heart pounding violently against my chest.

‘What are you doing’ she asked as she slowly backed away from me till she hit the wall and I got really close to her.

‘What is should have done since the beginning’ I said as I planted my lips against hers. I kissed her slowly and passionately, and she slowly responded. Everything was going perfectly till it was not, and she broke the kiss and landed a slap on my face before heading out.
