DILEMMA.Ares. “If you move one step closer to me, you'll regret it. And that's my wife you're calling a nobody”. I said in a thunderous voice as anger surged through my whole body.I took out my phone and pressed some buttons then two hefty bodyguards came into the mansion.“You called for us sir”. One of them said as they entered.“Yes I did, throw this thing out of here and make sure she never sets foot in my premises ever again. Before that, take her to the basement and teach her a very good lesson”. I ordered them as I pointed towards Amelia.Before they could bundle her out, Winnie went to her and slapped her hard across the face.“Next time, don't lay claims on my man”. She said to Amelia as she hissed and went upstairs.I was really surprised and proud of her at the same time.My bodyguards threw her out of my mansion amidst her swearing and cursing.“You'll regret this Ares!! You'll all regret this, I promise you!!!!!” She kept on saying till she wasn't within earshot.Winni
THE TALK. Ares. When I couldn't take it anymore, I decided to go to Winnifred's room and explain things to her.I got to the door of her room and was about to knock when I decided against it and just opened the door and let myself in.I loved the sight that welcomed me for some reason.Winnie was sound asleep with the cook by her side. They both looked like the perfect mother and daughter duo.I saw dried tears on her cheek and I knew she had been crying.It didn't take me long to realize it was because of what that bitch, Amelia had said to her earlier.I stayed in her room for a few minutes as I watched her sleep.Have I mentioned how beautiful and calm she looks when she's asleep?After some time, I decided to leave so that none of them would wake up suddenly and catch me staring at them in their sleep.That'll be creepy.I went back to my room. At least I tried talking to her but she was fast asleep already and I couldn't possibly wake her up.I had my bath and went to bed but s
PERFECT TIMING. Winnie. I discovered Ares and I were now really close to each other on the couch. I don't know when it happened but our fingers were touching and it sent sparks throughout my body.He started leaning in closer and our lips were about touching each other when my door suddenly opened and Mrs Catherine came inside the room.Perfect timing, I said sarcastically to myself.“I'm sorry if I interrupted anything, I wasn't expecting to see you here sir. I'll just take my leave”. She said as she left the room.“Your gist partner is here so I better take my leave so I can leave you guys to do what you do best”. Ares said as he stood up and headed for the door.“Thank you”. I said, stopping him in his tracks.“For what exactly?” He asked as he turned to face me.“For explaining things to me, it was really thoughtful of you and I really appreciate it”. I answered him as I started playing with my fingers, not looking at his face.He didn't say a word as he left my room.Ares. The
TROUBLE LOOMS?Ares.“Thank you”. I heard her say, stopping me in my tracks.“For what exactly?” I asked, as I turned around to face her.“For explaining things to me, it was really thoughtful of you and I really appreciate it”. She answered as she started playing with her fingers, not looking at my face.I didn't say a word as I left her room.This wife of mine.I got to my room and sat on the couch. I felt kind of relieved? I couldn't explain why.Was I happy because I explained how my relationship with Amelia was?Why did I even have to explain that? I shouldn't care less what she thinks.Come to think of it, if that cook hadn't interrupted, don't tell me I was about kissing her again. Oh Ares, what's happening to you? Winnie.After Ares left, I was happy and sad at the same time.I was happy because he actually came to explain things to me.At least I now know how his relationship with Amelia was. It wasn't what I was thinking at all.I'm really sure that Amelia lady wouldn't ex
ANOTHER SECRETARY. Ares. I got to the office and called Judy. I needed him to get me another secretary because the one I have keeps on trying to flirt with me despite shunning her several times.I've always threatened her with her job but for some reason it doesn't move her.“You called for me, sir”. Judy said as he entered my office.“Yes I did, sit down”. I told him, motioning to a chair close to my desk.“I need you to get me another secretary as soon as possible”. I told him with a note of finality but he still asked questions notwithstanding.“What's wrong sir? What did…”He paused, trying to remember her name. I don't even know her name.“What did Ella, yes, Ella…”He snapped his fingers as he remembered her name.“What did Ella do this time around?” He asked, looking concerned.“Well the moron keeps trying to flirt with me. I've shunned her several times and even threatened her with her job but for some reason it doesn't move her. She knows I'm married so what is her reason?”
ANOTHER DINNER. Winnie. The gown was really pretty. It was a long silver colored gown with spaghetti straps. It had thigh high slits on both sides with a deep round neck that would expose her breasts if she bent too much.I wore silver heels to go with the gown.I tested the gown and it fit perfectly. I wonder how he knew my size. Maybe he took it from the event planners or maybe they were even the ones that made it.I applied a little makeup and let my hair fall around my shoulders. My mum wasn't around to help me get ready. I hope she'll be proud of me when she finds out I did it all on my own.After I was ready, I took one final look at the mirror and was satisfied.I went downstairs to meet Ares.As I was coming down the stairs, I noticed the way his eyes ravished my body. It made my cheeks stain a little, I had applied a little bit of blush so hopefully when I actually blush he won't notice it.When I got to where he was, he brought out his arm for me to put mine in it so our a
A DRUNK WINNIFRED. Ares. I was ready and was waiting for Winnifred in the living room.Few minutes later, I saw her coming down the stairs. The gown fit her perfectly. It brought out all her curves. Damnnn those breasts of hers.I continued looking at her till she got to where I was. I noticed she applied some blush but I could still tell when she blushed for real.When she came down, I opened my arm for her to interlock hers with mine and I saw the look of surprise on her face.She did it anyway and we left the mansion and went into the waiting limo.I decided to use the limo because of where we were going.It was a really fancy restaurant which I owned of course but, I wouldn't tell her that.When we got into the limo, I wanted to see if she drinks so I poured some whiskey into a glass and handed one over to her. She accepted it after a slight hesitation and started drinking.With the way she behaved, I knew she didn't drink.I wanted to refill her glass but she said she was ok so
A TEMPTING NIGHT WITH WINNIFRED. Ares. Exactly what I didn't want to happen was happening.I decided to push away the thoughts of the paparazzi and what their headline would read once they saw me carrying my wife delicately.I was still in thought when…“No no no, I haven't finished my drink”. Winnifred said, hitting me on my chest. I chose to ignore her and kept moving like I couldn't hear her.“Can't you hear me? I said I haven't finished my drink”. She continued hitting me with all her might. But it felt like she was throwing feathers at me because I couldn't feel a thing.Her next action surprised me…“I-have-nt-fi-nished-my-drink kkk”. She said again, throwing a tantrum as she began crying.She was really acting like a baby and I found it really cute.“When we get to the villa I'll give you another drink, is that ok with you?” I asked her immediately we got into the limo in a bid to pacify her.“Yes yes yes, I'll love that”. She replied like a baby as she immediately wiped he
THE PROPOSAL.Winnie.I couldn't believe what just happened. I began replaying everything over and over in my head again. It all began when I woke up and was preparing coffee. Ares went to the living room without greeting me and started watching the News. He suddenly called for me and I went to the living room to meet him.“Where did you go yesterday?” He asked me and I was just staring at him, trying to process what happened yesterday.“I asked you a fucking question!!” He yelled at me and I blinked with a surprised look on my face. Ok, I had definitely remembered now. Why is he asking me this suddenly and why didn't he go to work today?“I didn't go anywhere.” I replied as I sat down on the couch.“Alright then, let me be more specific. What did you go to do at the hospital yesterday?” He asked me. I was shocked as to how he found out about my visit to the hospital.“I went for a check up.” I replied, not meeting his gaze. I knew that I had promised not to lie to him but this situat
THE DIVORCE.Ares.I was in my office when I got a call from Adam, Winnifred's driver. I hope nothing happened to Winnifred. I picked up the call immediately.“Yes Adam, what is it?” I asked impatiently and he hesitated for a moment before replying.“Good afternoon sir. I wanted to inform you that your wife went to the hospital today”. He said and I immediately stood up from my seat.“Hospital? What happened to her? What was she doing there?!!” I thundered over the phone as I started getting ready to leave the office.“No no sir, nothing happened to her. She's fine. She said she wanted to go for a check up”. He said as I sighed in relief.“Why did you call me then?” I asked, calmer this time around.“I think she lied sir.” He said and that got me curious. “And what makes you think so?” I asked him again, curious to hear his response.“I just had the feeling that she was lying and when she came back from the hospital, she seemed lost. I kept on asking her what happened but she was jus
PREGNANCY?Winnie.I didn't know when I slept off but I found myself on the floor of my room when I woke up and I was feeling really tired. It took me minutes to stand up from the floor and when I finally got up, the whole room began to spin and I had to hold on to the wall close to me to prevent me from falling down.I wondered why I had started feeling dizzy all of a sudden but I couldn't seem to come up with an answer. My stomach started grumbling and I wanted to ignore it but it only got worse so I decided to pay attention to it.Since I was obviously really hungry, I went downstairs to find something to eat after the room had stopped spinning. When I got to the kitchen, I found a note on the counter addressed to me from Ares. It read…“I've gone to work, don't think I have run away again or that something happened to me. I'm perfectly fine and will be back in the evening.”I smiled after reading the note and for a second, I thought that things were back to normal but I woke up fr
BACK HOME.Ares.Winnifred had been calling me for sometime now but I didn't pick up. I'll just look at it ringing until it cuts. I knew she would be worried because I didn't tell her anything but I couldn't care less.By the way, why should she be worried? She can as well go and meet the guy that was flirting with her at her bakery earlier today and not bother about me. I'm sure that wouldn't be hard to do.She stopped calling for sometime then after a few minutes, Judy called and I picked up immediately.“Good morning sir, your wife said that you're not at home and she's been calling you but you're not picking her calls. She's been waiting for you to come back home.” Judy said over the phone and I paused a little before replying to him.“You can tell her not to bother waiting up for me as I won't be going back to that villa for sometime. I'm in one of my other houses and I don't want to see her either. I need space away from her. If that's all, I'll hang up now.” I said and immediat
WISHFUL THINKING.Judy.I was surprised seeing Winnifred's name as the caller ID when my phone began ringing by 1:00am. What could be the problem? I picked after the second ring and I was shocked by what she said.“Hello, I'm sorry for disturbing you but do you know if Ares is still at the office? He's not yet back and I've been calling him but he isn't picking my calls”. She said, clearly worried.“Ares didn't come to work today. Didn't he tell you? I'll try calling him and see if he picks up”. I told her as I yawned.“He didn't tell me. Well, I left for work before him so there was no way he would have told me. Alright please do and call me back if he picks your call”. She said and ended the call.Why didn't Ares tell his wife that he didn't go to work and most of all where could he be by this time? I decided to call him and I was surprised when he picked up immediately.“Good morning sir, your wife said that you're not at home and she's been calling you but you're not picking her c
THE BREAKDOWN.Winnie.I stayed awake all through the night waiting for Ares to return but he never did. I lay on his bed as I watched the sunrise and my heart was heavy. I decided to dial Judy's number again and luckily, it went through.“You never called to give me feedback.” I told him immediately he picked up the call.“I'm sorry about that, I just didn't know how to tell you.” He responded, his voice a little bit shaky.“How to tell me what?” I asked, more curious now.“When I called Ares, he said that he isn't coming back home so you shouldn't bother waiting up for him and that he needs space away from you.” Judy replied and my face fell immediately.“He isn't coming back? Did he say where he was and how long he'll stay there?” I asked again, my voice beginning to break up as I fought hard to control my tears.“He's in another of his apartments but he didn't say how long he'll stay there.” Judy responded.“Do you know that I stayed awake the whole night waiting to see if Ares wo
THE BIG DECISION.Ares.As I was driving, it all became clearer to me. All these changes I had been noticing concerning me. The way I was now calm towards her. I never wanted to see her sad. I never wanted anything that would hurt her. I always wanted to see her smile and happy.How did I let all these happen? Where is the cold hearted Ares that doesn't give a fuck about anybody's feelings? “Aaaarrrrrggggggggg”. I shouted after parking my car by the corner of the road. I wanted to throw and scatter something so badly but I couldn't do that. Instead, I slammed my hands on the steering wheel so hard that it hurt.When I had calmed down a little and was able to drive properly, I resumed driving. I definitely couldn't go to my company in this mood so I decided to go home.Home? I can't do that. I took another turn that led me away from my mansion. I had made a decision. I won't live under the same roof as Winnifred again. That way, I can avoid her with ease.This was what I'd have to do
CAUGHT IN THE ACT.Winnie.I sat down in my office as thoughts of last night flashed through my mind. I couldn't help the blush that crept up my face when I recalled all that had happened.From the surprise to the dinner to the sex in the pool to the continuous sex in his room, all were very memorable and I enjoyed every one of them. Last night was a really fun night.“Someone's here to see you ma”. I heard Anna say, bringing me back from my thoughts.“Who is the person? Did the person leave a name?” I asked, curious because I wasn't expecting anyone.“No ma, he just said he wanted to see the owner of the bakery”. She replied.“Alright, I'll be out shortly”. I told her and she left. Who could be looking for me? I guess I better go and find out then. I left my office and went to see who it was.When I came out of my office, I saw a handsome young man with very black hair and green eyes that reminded me of Ares. He looked like he was in his early thirties. Well he is good looking I'll g
SUCH A CUTE THING.Judy.I was still finding it hard to believe that Ares actually thought of something like this and helped in executing it. If not for the fact that I was there when it all happened, I wouldn't believe that the Ares I know would do something as romantic as this.I was really happy when he suggested the idea and I observed how joyful he was when he was picking out Winnifred's outfit. I don't think I had seen him that happy in a long while and to think that Winnifred was the source of his happiness warmed my heart.I hoped things continued this way without changing. I was also glad that Winnifred loved the surprise because her expression when the light lit up was priceless. My hard work paid off.They didn't even wait for dinner to be over or at least for me to go before they started their make out session. They started doing it right there in my presence.“Isn't it too early for that?”. I had told them when I couldn't take it anymore and they composed themselves. I ch
