Love, lies and, secrets

 ANNA   It only takes a second for your whole world to turn upside down and leave you in a frantic state as to how it all came down to this in the first place. I swallowed a painful lump in my throat as I stared at the Adonis in front of me. My heart was racing faster than usual and I could barely move an inch from where I stood.  It couldn't be him, it definitely shouldn't be him, I tried to convince myself even though it seemed as though reality wasn't in agreement with me. I tried telling myself several times that he wasn't the man I slept with two nights ago. I adamantly refused to believe he was and the reason was because my elder sister, Alice, had just introduced him to me as her newly wedded husband. He was staring back at me with a smile on his face, almost as if he didn't know who I was or

ANNA  TWO NIGHTS AGO "Pour me another shot of tequila and a shot of vodka please," I requested from the bartender whose brows rose up in a questioning manner as soon as I asked but he didn't dare to ask any questions. At the moment, my only intention was to down as much alcohol as my body could take and thankfully, I had a very impressive alcohol tolerance so getting drunk and completely wasted had never actually been an issue for me.  "Sure thing madam," I heard him respond, but I'm no longer paying any attention to him at all.  I just took a seat and focused on my phone while waiting for the bartender to return with my two shots of tequila and vodka respectively.  "Is this seat taken?" I heard a deep suave voice ask and I immediately turned my back to check out who it was that owned such a gentle, yet quiet and seduc

ANNA I was able to convince Alice to go to the mall without me even after she had tried everything she could to get me to go with her. It was a little difficult to get her to go by herself and she even went as far as telling me that walking around and doing some exercise was a very good a way to relieve my stress and help with my cramps but I immediately knew she was only pulling my legs so that I would agree to go shopping with her. After she had left, I busied myself with anything I found interesting and I eventually fell asleep while reading a novel on my phone. When I woke up, it was already past three in the afternoon and almost immediately I did, I heard a knock on my door. "Come in," I said, inviting whoever it was in. Alice walked into my room with a wide smile playing on her lips and with two huge shopping bags on both her hands. "Hello, my lazy little sister. How are you feeling now? Are you still in pain? Did the pain relief meds have any effect at all?" Alice asked

ANNAMy eyes fluttered open when I heard my bedroom door slowly opening and the first thought that crossed my mind was that I was about to get robbed or kidnapped but that was until I remembered that I was actually in a billionaire's home and over here, they probably had hundreds of armed bodyguards. I quickly sat up on my bed and with my heart beating faster than usual. Even though I could vouch for the security here, I still can't vouch that I was safe since whoever was sneaking into my room could actually be a part of the security and he could be sneaking in here to harass and hurt me. "Who's there?" I questioned, carefully moving my hands to find the lamp switch since the room was very dark but after failing to find one, I recalled that this room was different from my usual room and that there were no lamps here."I said who is there? If you don't identify yourself, I'll scream," I threatened again after getting no response from whoever it was. Although I couldn't see who it wa

ANNAI waited patiently for Alejandro to give me a response to defend himself but he said absolutely nothing. His lips kept moving almost as if he had something to say but when he said absolutely nothing, I simply stared back at him with an unsurprised look on my face. I'm aware that this might sound bad but the fact was that I really wanted to hear a response from him because I wanted to know why in the world a newly married man like himself would go around kissing some stranger in a bar and I also wanted to know if I was the only one that he had done that with or if he had betrayed my sister with every other girl that he had run into. I nodded my head. "I see. You said you came here to talk and I said I refused to talk about that night but you insisted and I gave in but now, you won't answer my question? Since you suddenly don't have anything to say, how about you just leave my room already? You and I have absolutely nothing to talk about anymore so just get out," I hissed at him,
