Instead of going straight home, I make my way to the salon to get my hair done, nails polished, then make my way to the store to shop for new outfits.The first thing that catches my eyes is a long burnt orange dress, that has a split on the side that exposes my thigh. It was also strapless and rumpled up in the middle.When I try it on, the dress goes down to my ankle and most of my breasts are exposing, but take it with me anyway. Thinking that I could impress Mr Cross, because I still have my plan to get him.I then make my way over to the shoe rack to pick some heels that have a clear strap. I opt out of getting any accessories, because I think the dress is perfect in its own way.When I arrive home, I start getting ready, because I wasn't given a time on when I will be picked up.But it is a good thing, because just as I am about to put my shoes on. Someone downstairs presses the call button.It scares me how they know the exact apartment I am staying in."Just a minute," I say i
"Ladies and gentlemen, the opera will be starting in the next minute. Please make your way to the viewing box and take your seats. We put on a wonderful show, so I hope you all will enjoy." A voice comes."I need to use that bathroom." I push my chair back."So do I." Mrs Cross gets up as well.Her husband makes a gesture for someone to come over and lead us to the restroom.I am full aware of Mrs Cross walking behind me, but I don't care or feel bad for what I am wearing. Because what she has on is a turnoff to even her husband, looking more like a maid or someone's grandmother instead of the wife of a millionaire.She is dressed in an old fashion neon green, puffy sleeve dress that hides her figure. Flat shoes and her hair is up in a ponytail.I want to roll my eyes every time I look at her. I don't understand how she can be so selfish. After all, he took her to this place. The least she could do is wear a little makeup.After releasing my bladder and coming out of the stall to wash
Getting a cab takes longer than I thought, and the ride back home is lengthy because of traffic. But I am finally back into my way little sanctuary where I kick my shoes off, and put my hair up in a ponytail. But just as I am about to unzip my dress, a knock sound at my door.I frown, not knowing who it could be.When I open the door, I am shock to see my boss standing there. And it isn't a fantasy like the last time. This is real. He is here. With his tie loose and a few buttons open."May I come in?" He smirks."What are you doing here?""To make sure you got home alright." He smirks."Oh, I'm good. Thanks for checking up on me."He chuckles. "Let me in Angela."I gape at him before stepping aside.He looks around before his intense gaze settles on my face."You live alone?""Yes, the other person who was here moved out recently." I nod.But I doubt he is even listening to me, because his eyes are all over my body before they come to a stop at my breasts."That is a lovely dress you
While Mr Cross is snoring away beside me, I go to the living room to search for his phone. When I find it, I make sure to lock myself inside the bathroom to see what I can find about his wife, Natasha.It is as if God is on my side, because just like for his computer, he has the same password for his phone. I soon find his wife’s entire schedule for the rest of the month.I make a note of when she will have her next hair appointment and where. I skip through the rest to see that she will be having lunch with some friends, and also visiting a clinic. I smile, thinking that I can finally put my plan into action.'Watch out Mrs Cross, because you won't have that last name for too long.'I crawl back onto the bed beside my soon to be husband. I gaze at his sleeping face with a smile, knowing that it will soon always be like this.I close my eyes, having pleasant dreams.When I wake again, Mr Cross isn't beside me. I go in search of him, but it seems as if he has already gone home. I feel
The weekend is here and now I'm off to that expensive salon, all in the name of learning the things that Mr Cross likes.When I get to the Nellie's I see that the place is empty."Sorry ma'am, but unfortunately we are closed today due to a sewage leak." A female with bleach blonde hair tells me."Oh, ok." I say.'What are the odds?' I thought.I look at the picture I take of Mrs Cross schedule, wondering what she would be doing now.She already had her morning workout, and would be here to get her hair done. So what would she be doing now instead of this?'Lunch with her friends?'I walk the Drink and dive, thinking that it is a short distance, but it is much further than I thought.When I get there, I am out of breath."Hey, can I get a table for two, please? My friend will be here shortly. Her name is Ella." I lie.But I only do it so that I won't look suspicious."Ok, this way, please."When I enter the building, the place is somewhat empty, and it is easy to make out Mrs Natasha C
A give a loud moan as I feel myself climaxing. After fixing my clothes, I look at the time, shock to see how the time has passed by, because I am too caught up in Mr Cross, and the office sex we were having. Ever since the night of the opera, he would frequent my apartment, pleasing me in every way. And if not there, then in my office or his. Sadly, I never see much of his wife after that day at lunch. I don't know if she ever mention that we had lunch together, but even so. Mr Cross said nothing to me about it. All we do is fuck, go to nice places in the name of meeting and go on business trips. “What would you like for lunch, sir?’’ I ask, watching as my boss buttons his shirt. “A salad bowl with cheese,’’ he said, going back to being formal as if we didn’t just fuck each other's brains out. After giving Mr Cross his lunch, I go back downstairs to eat in the small staff area. This is my way of saving face to avoid anyone suspecting me and our boss, especially with Adele being fi
'What a way to ruin the mood?' I thought of my way home. Thinking that Natasha is a selfish woman, she doesn't give her husband what he wants and yet she is holding onto him instead of letting him go so he can be with someone who can match his energy and desires.I close the door behind me, rest my head against it and being to cry.I don't even understand where these tears are coming from. It isn't like Mr Cross and I have a relationship. He probably loves his wife and is trying to make things work, but she is so in different towards him.I kick my shoes off and throw my bag to the side, when I walk to the kitchen to get dinner started. I am shock to see Ella there around the stove cooking. She has a spoon in one hand and a glass of my wine in the other."What are you doing?" I yell over the music that is playing.Ella turns to me with a smile, but after seeing the look on my face, it drops and she rushes over to me."Angie, are you alright? Have you been crying?" She asks.I pull awa
The next day while I am out running a few errands for Mr Cross, mostly to pick up the new banner for the front of the building and getting his new favourite drink. I run into none other than Adele and Brie.They both are dressed in work clothes, no doubt coming from an interview. But from the looks on their faces, I can only say that they aren't successful.Too bad. Maybe if they didn't run their mouths so much, they wouldn't be in this position now.I stare at Adele, taking in her defeated look. I would have felt sorry for her, but she cause this on herself."A dragon fruit madness and a peach iced tea, please." I tell the server."Will that be all?" She asks."Yes.""A name for the order, please?""Angela S."I glance back at where Adele and Brie are standing in line when I shift over to the pickup side. Brie spots me first as our eyes meet. She frowns at me; she bumps Adele with her elbow, then points me out.I roll my eyes at them when Adele looks up.I don't know what Brie said t
Even though it has been a year since I have escaped the clutches of Leo, I still look over my shoulders to make sure that he hasn't found me somehow.I shiver as I pack the dishes into the washer. Just thinking about that man gives me chills. I am still scared of him. I am still worried that he will find me and take me back as his prisoners, maybe even kill me.I know that Raymond told me to not think about it so much and that Leo will never find me. But even with moving to a new state, and changing my name, along with bleaching my hair blonde. I still can't help but be wary. I think I might need therapy with how scared I am."Hey, babe. I'm home." Raymond comes up behind me, kissing my neck.That cause me to calm down."Everything is coming along great." He kisses my neck."That's good.""How is my little angel?" He asks."She is sleeping. I think her teeth are coming in, so she is fussy."Raymond spins me around. "I was thinking of a date night, say tomorrow. We can go to that resta
I make my way slowly through the small forest, because I wasn't aware that the place was so uneven or filled with holes. Which makes me wonder if any of them are for me.The place is also slippery, with my having to go even slower and have to hold on to the tress for support, afraid that if I fall, I might lose this baby.My phone buzz, it is a message from Layla. She met up with Avril and Adele, and is only notifying me about how far away they are.I can hear tires screeching on the pavement, then the old rusty gate opening. I pause to make sure I'm not seen by ducking down and waiting for it to drive up to the house.I then begin to run in the direction of the main road, slipping and falling as I do. Not stopping until I get to the high wall that is blocking my freedom.I peek out from the trees to see if anyone is coming down the driveway before moving to the gate. But sadly, it doesn't have a keypad like I hope, so I can't put any pass codes in.I guess he knew I would try to esca
The next morning, I am happy to know that Leo has left for work. Thanks to Pete for giving me that information.I basically run back upstairs to call the few numbers in my phone.Tye first person I call is Natasha, I don't know why but it just feel as if I should apologise to her for not returning."Angela, oh my God. Where have you been? When you didn't show up the next day, I started to worry about you. Then I tried your phone but I went to voice mail.""Because Leo went crazy and has me out in some log cabin in the middle of the woods."Natasha pause for a while. "I don't know where that is, but are you able to leave?""I will soon, before he gets back. I have to go. I have someone to call so they can come help me.""Tell me what I can do.""You just stay put. With your state, I don't want you to worry too much."I hang up before she can say anything else.Layla picks up on the first ring."Jesus Christ, where have you been? The girls and I are worried sick.""I'm fine.""No, you a
Even though Leo didn't really put his hands on me, I can't help but shake from fear. I thought he would have beaten me to anything and I would really have a miscarriage, but now that I really am pregnant I don't think he will hit me. And even so, I can't allow him to think that his child is his.I make my way to my room to let the girls and Raymond know what I happening, but before I can take out my hidden phone, Leo walks in."I mean, I when I said that I don't want you around those girls again, I don't trust Layla and I know that she must be telling you things. So to get you away from them, we are going to move.""What?""And one more thing, I want a divorce, but I won't let you leave until you have my son."My heart skip at those words."You can't do that.""I can. It is in our contract. You remember? The one you signed."I can't get any words out."You will be locked up in the new house. There will be doctors tending to you until you have my son and then I'll throw you out.""But
Right there in the living is Leo on top of Star, both of them sweaty and breathing hard. I don't know why I can't look away or leave; it is as if I'm mesmerised by the both of them fucking on the sofa.Star moans, calling his name. While Leo fucked her from the back, with one hand gripping the back of the sofa and the other gripping her waist.I am about to walk away when Leo looks up and see me."Angela, I'm glad you are home. You came just in time for the show."Star looks up in time to my name, I can see her smiling at me, she start overreacting. Moaning louder, as if she is enjoying it such but I know she is doing it only to get to me but I don't care.Leo calls me over, telling me to sit. I do as he said, not really caring about them and the act, because I don't love Leo, so Star can't hurt me. She can have him for all I care."I want you to watch this, Angela. Get this image into your mind."He starts fucking her harder and her moans gets louder.Leo makes a sound as he comes, t
When I wake up the next morning, I am glad to know that Leo has already left for work.I roll to my side. The moment I do, my stomach gets uneasy and I have to rush to the bathroom where I throw up in the sink. Not even making it to the toilet.Just as I thought it was over, it starts again.Avril comes into my room, only to see me on the floor with my head between my knees."Are you alright?"Before I can answer, I start throwing up again."I don't know. I woke up, and it's like this.""Ok, get yourself cleaned up. I'll make some tea to help settle your stomach."When she walks out, I throw up one last time before brushing my teeth and coming down to the kitchen.I am greeted by pepper mint tea, eggs, waffles, and bacon."Thank you." I smile at Avril, who gives me a look instead.I drink the tea first, but on the first bite of the waffles and getting it down. I rush to the sink and start throwing up."I think you should do a pregnancy test," Avril lets out."What?""You heard me. Whe
I make my way back to Raymond, telling him I have to go now. For some reason, I am feeling nauseous, and as if I would throw up in any second."Are you alright? Maybe you just need to lie down for a while." He said, touching the small of my back."No, I feel really sick. I don't know why, but suddenly it is as if-" I stop talking, because I can actually feel the bile rising in my throat now.All I can do is embarrassingly lose the contents of my stomach, but as soon as I do, I feel better.I wipe at my mouth. "Sorry," I tell Raymond, feeling my face heating up."Yeah, I think it is best if you go lay down for a while." Raymond tells me, taking my hand and leading me up to his room.There I lay down, and he came to lie beside me."You look pale, what did you eat?" He asks, brushing back hair from my forehead."I didn't eat anything, just had that beer. But it did have a funny taste to it.""Maybe it has expired."I shrug, cuddling up closer to him.I feel much more safe and secure with
Raymond introduced me as his girlfriend, which everyone greets me."I don't know you had a girlfriend.'' A female said, she pouts then frowns at me."It's fairly new, three months to be exact." He tells her, putting an arm around my shoulder to pull me close."I doubt it will last long." She said, then turns her head away."Janet, how can you say such a thing?" Another female said.I try to ignore that, and focus on the others that are around. Mostly on the two female I'm more familiar with."Can you excuse me a minute?" I ask, moving away from Raymond."Fancy seeing you here," I said."I can say the same. I thought you were married. Never did I expect to hear you being the girlfriend of Raymond. What was it, all a lie? Or maybe you are living a double life?""No, it's...you know, the situation I'm in."Star scoffs. "I hear your complaints, but I don't believe your words.""What? How can you say that? I show you the bruise on my stomach, and tell you all that he has done to me."Star
It has been three months now since my dear husband has been giving me my freedom, where I meet with the girls and Raymond. I have also been secretly paying for a house, thanks to the help of Avril.I get the credit card from Leo; I withdraw money which he never questions. Give it to her and she deposits it to the realtor. Then I get an alert on my burner phone about the payment. I also make sure to give her money for herself, not as a bribe but because I learnt that Leo didn't pay her much. She works two jobs and has children. I offered to buy her a house as well, but she refused.I message Raymond to let him know that I'm on my way to him. I already had breakfast with the girls and now I'm going to spend a little time with him. Not only do I enjoy the sex but also his company. He is a wise man, and always fills me in on what is happening around the world. He makes me feel included, unlike Leo.With Leo, it is all about sex. We never have a conversation, and it has always been like th
