A Night of Love & Betrayal
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56As he sat down at the bar drinking himself to stupor just to forget what he had just witnessed, he laid his eyes on Ellie. Immediately he saw Ellie, he forgot what actually brought him to Cheetahs and his eyes were glued on her. He watched the way she twisted her body as she held the pole and he could not help but fall in love with every of her single movement. He watched as she moved with her hair cascaded in soft waves down her back.
As Ellie danced on the dance floor, her body flew with the music, with every of her movement a symphony of grace and rhythm. He was mesmerized with the way she moved with confidence, that was both alluring and intoxicating, drawing him in just like a moth to a flame.
As she danced, her eyes were closed which showed she was lost in the music and she seemed to be in her own world
Edward couldn’t take his eyes off her. She was like a goddess, a vision of beauty and grace that captivated him completely. He felt the urge to join her on the dance floor and so, he did. As he held her and their bodies moved in sync to the rhythm, he felt the music pulsing through his veins as he moved with her in perfect harmony. As he held her in his arms, he felt some kind of peace and solace in his heart, making him forget the betrayal he had just gotten from his wife and best friend. He felt like he was at home, and he felt like sometimes, home is a person. All he wanted at that moment was to continue being in that position of embrace and he was so mesmerized with the moment that he didn’t notice the music had stopped.
‘Excuse me, Sir. Can you please let go of me? I have to be on my way home’, Ellie had said in a soft manner, bringing Edward back to reality. Her voice was so gentle and sweet. He kept on gazing at her, admiring how beautiful she was and her beauty was radiating through the room.
‘She seems polite and respectful’, Edward had thought. Edward didn’t know what to say as he was still admiring Ellie’s features. As Ellie turned to leave, Edward’s gaze followed her and he kept on looking at her. As he watched her leave, he knew immediately that the only thing he wanted that night was to be in Ellie’s embrace. He delibrated on whether to follow his heart and run after her or not, but after fighting with his inner thoughts, he decided to go for her.
Walking up to Ellie and hugging her from behind, Edward said:
‘Hello, Beauty. Would you like to be my bedmate tonight?’
‘With pleasure’, Ellie murmured, with a smirk on her face and locking her lips with that of Edward. There, their love story began, after spending the night in each other’s embrace.

She looked around the bar and everything had changed from what it used to be when she worked there. There were new faces around and all the old folks she worked with were nowhere to be found. She watched as everyone in the club except for her danced happily to the tune of the rhythm. She felt odd as she was the only being sitting in a corner, looking all sad and abandoned. Her gaze landed on a couple who were dancing gracefully and lovingly, and it was evident the duo was really into each other. The sight of them made her remember the first time she had an encounter with Edward. The wave of the beautiful moments they both share

Have you forgotten what you did to me in the past? You whom I saw as my best friend and ally, slept with my wife countless times and got her pregnant. You both were even planning to pin your child on me, and you were aiming for my downfall. Don’t you feel bad for what you did to me? You were the only one I trusted the most. How could you have done that to me?!!!” Edward yelled, staggering towards Richard, with hurt in his voice.

Ellie, Daniel and Richard were all at Daniel’s mansion, celebrating their victory. After Sophia’s arrest at the hall, they had dismissed the guests and they all had headed to Daniel’s house to celebrate their accomplishment. They were seated in his gigantic living room, toasting to their success and just then, a male figure walked in. The figure staggered and was walking as if he would drop dead anytime soon. He looked dishevelled and his hair was rough. The more he walked closer to them, the more the smell of alcohol filled their noses, evidence that the figure had drowned himself in alcohol for quite some hours. The sight of him made them halt in their celebration and confusion was hitched on their faces. There were strains of dried tears of the figure’s cheeks which showed that he had been shedding tears. When the figure finally got to where they were seated, he halted in his steps and turned to face Daniel.“Edward, what’s wrong? Why are you like this?” Daniel asked, as concern la

Sophia stood frozen in place, her eyes were wide and unblinking as she watched Ellie walked onto the stage. Her mouth was slightly opened in surprise as she was finding it hard to believe the scene before her. Her lips were parted, trying to utter some words but the words wouldn’t come out. Her eyebrows were high raised, and a slight of furrows formed on her forehead, amplifying the confusion and disbelief etched on her face. “What ..... are you ....... talking about? She is the CEO?” Sophia finally asked, facing Claire who was standing beside her, with her finger pointed in the direction of Ellie. “Yes, she is. She is the CEO and founder of Annie Fashion Group. Hope you like the surprised we planned for you?” Claire said, as her smile transformed in an instant, revealing something far deeper than the polite, practiced expression she had always worn. The edges of her lips curled up slowly, but there was no warmth in the gesture. Instead, it felt calculated, sharp, as if the smile
