TRUTH OR DARE chapter 147
DAMIENI think it's true what they say.You don't know what you've got until you lose it. You don't appreciate the warmth of the sun until it's winter. And you definitely don't appreciate your wife until she looks up at you and asks for a divorce.Dani is sitting on the couch, looking up at me with that devastating look of despair in her eyes."What do you mean that you want a divorce?" I ask in confusion, hoping that my ears are betraying me. "Is this some kind of joke?""I'm serious." She says sharply. "I want a divorce."A stake driving through your heart is not nearly as painful as watching the woman you love ask for permission to leave you, her eyes filled with sadness. It's even more painful to know that I'm the source of that sadness.I run my hands through my hair and sit on the bed, across from her. She's seated on the couch, staring sharply at me. "I don't want a divorce, Dani.""People don't divorce because they want to." She says coldly. "They divorce because their marria

DANIThere's nothing as painful as realising that the man you married is the problem in your marriage.All this time, I thought that Vanessa was the problem. I thought that she was the one wrecking my marriage. Wrecking my home.But it's Damien.It's been Damien all along.He's the one that brought Vanessa into my life. He's the one who let her into our house and into our marriage. He's the one who takes her side and chooses her every single time. He's the one who makes me feel like the other woman. He's the one who gives her all the attention and affection. All this time, I've been pointing fingers at the wrong person when the actual problem was sitting right infront of me."I'm the problem?" Damien asks in surprise, sitting on the couch. "What do you mean?""You are the one that brought your ex into our house despite the fact that I begged you not to." I say. "It was supposed to be date night tonight but I bet you forgot about that because you were too busy hanging out with your ex.

Damien drops me at my parents house.The ride here was filled with a lot of light conversations, jokes and laughter. The two hours in the car flew by so fast and I didn't want the journey to end. I almost wanted to go back home with him.My parents have already made lunch for us. I already told them that I was coming with Damien. They are excited to have him at the lunch table.Everyone fills their plates as we eat and drink and talk and laugh together. "How's married life?" Dad asks, his eyes set on Damien. "Is my daughter a migraine? Is that why you're dumping her here to share the pain?""No." Damien chuckles. "Your daughter is a perfect wife. She just wants to spend more time with her dad."We decided that it would be a good idea to keep the 'divorce' thing to ourselves as we figure out what's best for us in two weeks."Aren't you going to miss her?" Dad asks. "I miss my wife all the time when she's away.""Oh, please." Mom rolls her eyes. "The only reason you miss me is when you

The coffee shop is chill and quiet.A nice place to come and chill with your best friend or your lover. It makes me wish Damien was here. God knows how much I miss that man...I haven't seen him for a week now and I feel like I'm dying. He's away on a business trip with his fùcking ex. Yes, he's away with Vanessa. They are both working on a photoshoot together. The thought of it makes me want to pull out chunks of my hair. I don't trust Vanessa. But I trust Damien. And I know he wouldn't betray me.The door swings open.Natalie walks in, looking hot in a red dress. The few customers turn around to get a glance of my gorgeous sister. She has bleached her hair again and the red lipstick looks perfect on her. She takes a seat across from me and I just stare in wonder."What did you do to my rusty crusty dusty big sister?" I scowl at her. "And who the hell is staring at me right now?""A doctor in the process of getting divorced and being a mom and trying to get back into the dating game.

DAMIENThe Barcelona business trip came at the perfect time.First, because I needed a break from the company. Vanessa also needed a little something to take her mind off the terrible things she's been through.When the opportunity for a Vogue photoshoot arose, ofcourse I grabbed it and ran with it. Plus, I love working on projects with Vanessa because she's so passionate about photography. Maybe even more passionate than I am. Her skill and talent blows my mind. Sometimes it feels like we went to two completely different schools.Second, because Dani needed a break from our marriage. It breaks my heart that our marriage has gotten to this point. It's too early in the marriage to be taking breaks from each other. A lot of people would say that is a bad sign. We should be in the honeymoon phase not taking two-week breaks from each other. Honestly, that makes me a little scared for the future. If we even have one...But I am to blame for the break. Fully. I brought my ex into our lives

VANESSAIt's a beautiful day.The sun sneaks in through the window, gently kissing my skin. It's been a long time since I had such a peaceful sleep. It's the first time that I feel like everything is going perfectly in every sector of my life.Leo Giovanni is dead. I'm so relieved that I don't get to wake up to his annoying face and his annoying voice and his annoying kisses. He was extremely clingy, one of the many things that made me hate him.Sophia Hunt is dead. That fùcking junkie. She got what she deserved. She was foolish to think that I would kill her brother for her. Damien is the love of my life. I would do anything for that man. I would kill for that man. Even kill his twin sister.Luca Giovanni is also dead. I didn't have to do the dirty work. Dario willingly did it for me. Since then, I sleep so peacefully knowing that I don't have any powerful enemies who are after my life.The only enemy I have at the moment is Dani Fox. But just like the rest of my enemies, soon she wi

DANIIt's been two weeks.I'm still at my parents' house. I never thought I would say this but watching my parents actually inspired me to stay with my husband. I don't want to divorce Damien. Infact, I'm sure I want to stay with that man for the rest of my life. I'm never leaving him.No, I have not come to that conclusion because my parents are lovey dovey with each other. It's actually the opposite. My dad doesn't love my mom. He just loves she can cook for him and clean for him and take care of him and make her coffee when he's busy working. That's another strange thing about him. He's always working. He works a little too hard for someone who is going to die. When my mom asks him to slow down, he brushes her off and sends her more coffee.My mom loves him. Ofcourse she lets him treat her like a slave without saying a word or talking back at him. It's strange that I never noticed how poorly he treated her when I was a kid. And what's even stranger is the fact that's she's a quali

PART THREE | DESTROY |DAMIENTen years ago, I swore that I would destroy the person who destroyed my life.I had just finished college. I was crazy inlove. I was planning a trip to Italy with the love of my life. I would spend the next years of my life doing something I'm passionate about. Life was good. Life was great.Until the accident happened...That accident ruined everything. It ruined my life. How was I supposed to get on a flight to Italy with the love of my life when my mom was in the hospital, fighting for her life? I wouldn't even enjoy the scenic places in Italy with the picture of my mom in a hospital bed at the back of my head.So, I stayed home.I stayed home to take care of my mom.It was the hardest time. Not just for me but also my family. It was a blow to their faces. I remember my dad didn't hold a painting brush for almost two years. He was too busy taking care of my mom after the coma.

DAMIENtwenty years laterIt's our twentieth anniversary.For every anniversary, we celebrate it in Bali. In the same hotel we went for our first, second and third honeymoon. There's been a lot of changes and renovations in the hotel over the years but it still gives me a feeling of nostalgia every time I come here.I step out of the shower and start drying myself with the towel.Dani is busy typing on her laptop. I apply some lotion and slide into a pair of white shorts. My wife doesn't bother to look up."George filed for divorce." I huff. "Gina cheated on him again. This time, with a younger man.""Not surprised." I sigh. "Why can't he just leave her?""He's addicted to the toxicity."Dani doesn't respond. She's still busy on her laptop. Plus, she's so over George and Gina. And honestly, so am I. For years, I wanted to save George from that abusive marriage but he clearly doesn't want to be saved. He made the bed. I'll just let him lie in it. Even if it's a bed of thorns that makes

DANII stare at Nate in shock.But he's not staring at me. He's staring at Damien."When Dani's dad shot me, I was paralysed." Nate says. "I could see everything. I could hear everything. But I couldn't move. I couldn't even feel blood oozing from my body."Okay, where's this going?"Dani was in shock after her father shot himself infront of her." He continues. "She just sat there, staring at his lifeless body. She was in shock and despair. She had lost all hope for life. That's until you came out of nowhere and wrapped your arms around her, crying. She was relieved. She was hopeful again. I was relieved too. And I was hopeful. That's when I allowed myself to pass out. All that time, I'd been forcing myself to hold on a little longer for Dani. I didn't want to leave her all alone and scared. But when you showed up, I knew she was in safe hands. So l let myself pass out."Nate finally turns to look at me, a small smile forming on his face."Remember that double date with Richard and yo

DAMIENI ring the doorbell.Dani swings the door open, dressed in her pajamas. She stares at me in complete shock and confusion."What are you doing here?" She asks in concern. "Are you okay?"I don't reply to that. I just pull her in my arms and cling to her body. I know she's pregnant and I'm probably hurting her baby but the baby will have to forgive me. I need his mother now. He can wait.Dani escorts me to the livingroom. She sneaks to the kitchen and brings me coffee. Yes, I definitely need coffee this time. I'm shaking due to the cold. Or maybe I'm shaking due to the shock. It's been a night of horror and I can't wait for it to end."What's going on, Damien?" Dani asks softly. "Where's Vanessa?"Just hearing her name sends chills all over my body. I look up at the ticking clock.The images of the last three hours play vividly in my head.Vanessa screaming in terror. Vanessa's head being chopped off. Vanessa's head being tossed in a black plastic bag like garbage. The "bad guys

VANESSABe calm.Whatever happens in life, be calm. That's one of the greatest tricks to tackle every situation in life. Be calm. Take a deep breath. Don't lose it. You might be losing it inside, but don't show them. Act calm. Act confident.I turn to look at Damien.Ofcourse I'm shocked. And confused. He just jumped out of the kitchen. He was listening to the conversation this entire time. I should have listened to my gut when I entered the house.I got a whiff of his cologne when I entered the living room. Then I got a glance of his shoes at the door. But somehow, I convinced myself that they didn't belong to Damien. A bunch of shoes look the same. And there's no way they belonged to Damien. I mean, I left him home looking hungry and exhausted. There's no way he could drive back to the city for two hours instead of taking a rest. God, I was in for a shock!But I'm still calm. "Babe." I smile. "You know I hate surprises.""Don't babe me!" He snaps. "I heard everything you just said,
TRUTH OR DARE chapter 192
DAMIENI dash into the kitchen and pour all the coffee in the sink.I don't want coffee. I want something stronger. Something like scotch. Something that will make me forget about my dad. And Vanessa. And the pregnancy scam. And the whole drug dealing thing. And the way I just talked to Dani. And the way she looked at me. All I do is hurt her with my words and actions. And all she does is be kind and nice to me. After everything I did, she's letting me spend the night at her house. God, I don't deserve her...It's pouring heavily outside.I look outside, the rain beating down on the roof and sliding down the window. For a moment there, I wish that the rain could wash away all the pain. I wish that the rain could slide down my soul and wash away all the sadness and sorrow. The doorbell rings, pulling me away from the sea of sad thoughts."Good evening, Dani." I grit my teeth when I hear that familiar voice. Vanessa. What the fùck is she doing here? How the fùck did she know that I wa

DANIDamien is standing at my door when I get home from the hospital.The second he sees me, he runs to me and our bodies clash in a tight embrace. He starts crying in my arms. And I start crying in his arms. And now we're crying in each other's arms. I don't even know why I'm crying. But I definitely know why he's crying.He lost his father. A father that he deeply loved. And today he lay his father to rest. That's hard on anyone.The sky rumbles. We break apart and silently walk into the house before it starts raining. Damien takes off his shoes and sits on the couch. I take off my black coat and sneak to the kitchen. There, I make coffee and grab some cookies from the pantry. Damien looks like he needs something stronger than coffee but it's the best choice for now. "Thankyou." He smiles when I set the tray of coffee and cookies on the table.I sit across from him, creating some distance between us. I'm just from seeing Nate in the hospital and we even kissed when I left.

DAMIENThe ride home was silent.Two hours on the road with Vanessa sulking and seething and staring at me, her eyes filled with fury.The second I stop the engine, she flies out of the car and storms into the house. I follow her quickly but I can't keep up with her pace. When I walk into the house, she's already flying up the stairs.Maria steps out of the kitchen with a bunch of sandwiches on the tray."Spill the tea." She giggles. "Why is she so mad this time? What happened at the funeral?""Nothing interesting." I shrug.That's my way of brushing Maria off. Although I like her, she can be a little nosy in a way that's annoying and steps on boundaries. Vanessa is still the mother of my child. She's just a surrogate. Sometimes I think that Maria forgets that. Vanessa can be a pain in the àss but she still deserves respect as the biological mother of my child."Want a sandwich?" She offers."Sure." I grab it. "I'm starving!"I run up the stairs, chewing on the sandwich as I head to o
TRUTH OR DARE chapter 189
DANICamille's mansion was the perfect pick for the reception after the funeral.The guests are waltzing around the large livingroom, cups of coffee clutched in their hands. A bunch of bowls are sitting at the dining table with cookies and biscuits and even chocolates.I'm sitting on the couch next to Camille, munching on the crunchy cookies. Her face is blank and void of emotion but I know that deep down, she's having an emotional crisis. A few hours ago, she broke down as her husband was put to the ground. I can't imagine what that felt like for her. Spending half of your life with someone and then having to watch their lifeless bodies being lowered to the ground. Tragic."Look at them!" Camille points to Damien and Vanessa. "She's always complaining about something. They should break up already."They seem like they are fighting. Vanessa is nagging about something. And Damien is glaring at her. They are obviously the unhappiest couple in the room. I get a little thrill watching the
TRUTH OR DARE chapter 188
DAMIENVanessa slides into her black heels and walks towards me.She stands so close, looking up at me. There's a blank look on her face and it's kinda creepy. She straightens my collar and starts fixing my black tie."I'm going to ask you something and I want you to be completely honest with me."The cold tone in her voice sends shivers down my spine. She's not been speaking to me the entire morning. I thought it was odd but chose not to overthink it. I thought it's because we were both busy getting ready for the funeral. I thought maybe she's giving me some space and silence because this is the day that I lay my dad to the ground. From the tone of her voice, that's clearly not the case. She's mad at me. And from the way she's playing with this tie, I might end up getting strangled if I don't provide the answer that she wants. And that makes my heart start racing."Have you been fùcking Dani?"I can't help but laugh. I thought it was something serious. Something that was going to be
