Chapter 18When Rachel dreamsSoon Derek let Clarke's tongue go in as he moved his lips to the tempo of Clarke's. It was the first time Clarke has ever felt so elated in his entire life, he didn't get this feeling not from his wife or any other woman he has slept with.He let his hands slowly rest on Derek's lap as he felt something rise beneath his pants fighting to set free, like Derek knew he moved his hands towards Clarke's pants, gently loosened the belt and slid his fingers in.Clarke jerked when the contact was made but he didn't struggle or pull his lips away, he sat there in ecstasy as Derek took control.He gripped on tighter and Derek fondled carefully with his . All he could do was let go and wonder in awe how someone could push all his sexual buttons.Their brief period of romance soon was cut short by a knock on the window, immediately Derek withdrew his hands and Clarke pulled his lips away as his heart began to beat fast.Clarke turned around to see a police officer wh
CHAPTER 19 “Its a two-day photoshoot but I would leave a day before...... Dubai needs to be explored”. Rachel says with joy and her hands raised as though she was a mime at the children's park. “ So you are leaving me here all alone?”.Charity asked as she mimicks the babbles of a toddler. “ I would be back even before you miss me”.Rachel assured her as she pats Charity's head softly and blesses her with a kiss on her forehead. “I would be back even before you say Jack Robinson".Rachel re-assured as she pulls Charity in for a proper hug.Rachel had informed Clarke who had claimed to be on an impromptu day trip with his partners about her trip to Dubai. “ Your first trip without me since we got married...I don't know how I would cope without you”Rachel kept mute at the end of the line,un-phased by the words of her husband.She had run cold from all his sugar coated talks.Clarke had been engulfed with euphoria that Rachel was leaving him to enjoy his
Chapter 20 PROTECT?Rachel withdrew from the charity with a faint frown on her face. "I am so sorry......" she said with a soft tone and she paused to hear what charity would reply to her but charity said nothing. She continued to gaze at the slim model that stood in front of her. Charity didn't expect something of this nature to happen because Rachel has never shown any traits of being bisexual. The feeling was so intense and charity could feel drops of sweat dripping from her head down to her shoulder before they dried off.Rachel spoke out again " I just have a lot going on, I don't know what I was thinking, I just.....""Get back here" charity cuts in, gripping Rachel's long black hair mildly.Rachel again threw herself at charity without thinking twice. She had mixed feelings while she allowed the charity to return kisses on her lips and squeeze her breasts. She felt guilt, shame, love, care, anger, and happiness all at the same time.There was no reason to justify her anger a
CHAPTER 21 “What the fuck am I doing?”Rachel asked loudly as she slaps her forehead with her palm in confusion. “I believe something is definitely wrong with me”She soliloquized as she quickly draws her thong back on her waist and dries her hand on a towel. “This shows I'm still into men" she chuckled hysterically and grimaced at the phone. “He ain't all that” she thought to herself as she unmounts the bed.She quickly recalls that she hadn't unpacked her bag from her journey to Dubai. A brief sharp hissing noise accompanied with the opening of the luggage was heard loudly.Rachel ogled intently at the abaya that sat at the top of other clothes...she had taken it as a souvenir. “I love this”she whispered to herself as she feels the fine cotton cloth and caress on the alluringly embroidered fabric.The woman at her front turned hurriedly to look at who was unwittingly caressing her back.Turns out that Rachel wasn't admiring the abaya on a mannequin but on a tall,an
Chapter 22Charity keeps silent as she thinks of a proper answer to Rachel's question.She is a very private person and has always lived a private life, saying only what she was asked, but she knows Rachel has every right to be mad."Rachel, I..." She started, but choked on her own words.Rachel felt tears stinging her eyes and immediately stood up to avoid unexplainable tears and questions from the son Charity apparently has."Rachel! Rachel," Charity called as she raced after her. Rachel didn't stop but immediately got into her car and turned the ignition."Rachel, please calm down and let me explain," she begged as she tapped the window repeatedly.Rachel didn't say a word but immediately drove off, leaving a confused and sorry Charity in the parking lot.The wind blew Charity's flannel shirt as she watched the car go until it was out of sight. She ran her slender fingers carefully through her thick hair, sighed, and walked back into her house."Why'd you have to come visit me here?
CHAPTER 23 Derek had pressed a vibrator to his perineum while he stroked his penis with his other hand.The buzzing noise of the vibrator and the deep moaning of men was heard,it sounded like a whorehouse.It was very much obvious that he was watching an orgy sex on his laptop as he beat his banana.He increased the tempo of his strokes as he gripped his penis firmly and reached out for a butt plug. “aa..aarr..aargh!!”he groaned loudly as his eyes rolled in.He felt his penis take over his brain for a split second....everything went numb,except for the amazing sensation in his penis.His penis pulsates visciously as a whitish liquid squirts out of his meatus.He laid on the bed,panting in exhaustion as droplets of sweat clustered on his forehead. “ewwwww...”Rachel scrunched her face in disgust as she still stared eyes fixed at her phone. “What does he see in him that he doesn't see in me???” she asks herself rhetorically as she flings her p
CHAPTER 24 PRESAGE OF THE ENDDerek stood still, looking at Rachel with his eyes wildly open. He knew who she was so there was no need to ask the stranger what she was doing in his mother's kitchen.His heart began to beat rapidly, he gripped the handle of the knife he was holding like a weapon. This was an involuntary response. A drop of sweat slowly slides from his forehead down to his left eye causing him to blink several times."can I help you with anything" his shaky voice echoed "no" Rachel replied quickly. Her hands were numb, she could no longer feel the phone that she held.She didn't realize that she wore a very obvious frown on her face which made Derek suspect and question her reactions."why is she looking at me like she wants to kill me, wait she knows?" Derek said in his mind.The whole situation was so awkward until he thought of a better response that would ease the tension."can I help you with your anything, you seem annoyed""Oh!"She exclaimed.She squeezed he
CHAPTER 25BEHIND THE SCENE.Charity's newly profound love for Rachel was unfathomable,she had extinguished the thoughts of being in love after alot of her other relationships had fallen. “What's going on with me??...” she asked herself rhetorically.This was her neighbor she was in love with,a married woman,a woman she for sure knew ever loves her husband.She had been very touchy with Rachel earlier but Rachel wasn't reading the room enough.She had become so much in love with Rachel that she couldn't set her eyes off her.Charity would leave her window blinds halfway open so she would be forced to unconsciously watch Rachel go about her daily activities.That evening, Charity had just finished binge watching the six seasons of “the L word” for the one millionth time.That was an old series but it remained her comfort show since she was a fan of lesbian romance and thrillers.Charity heard Rachel's vehicle screech to a halt, rubbishy parked at the entrance t
Chapter 35BulletproofHe tenderly kissed her thighs with passion, momentarily stealing her breath away. Rachel's heart raced in an uncontrollable frenzy as if time had suddenly hastened.She delicately leaned against the plastic chair, paying no mind to the possibility of it breaking beneath her weight. Raising her gaze, she found herself fixated on the medium-sized chandelier hanging above her head.Her thoughts wandered to his office door. Was it securely locked? What would happen if he were caught engaging in such intimate acts with his client? Could he risk losing his position at the firm?Rachel's mind became saturated with swirling thoughts, intrusive and overwhelming. Despite the inner turmoil, her desire immobilized her, rendering her speechless and motionless as she chose to dismiss the cacophony in her head. He continued to rain kisses on her thighs, giving her a slightly painful bite at intervals.Her legs were wide open. The lawyer got closer to her clits, beautifully c
CHAPTER 34 Maybe she was taking extra steps or was she just overreacting on this situation?She had dived too deep into the marriage that divorce felt a bit uneccesary to her......But was it though?. “I am enjoying no benefits in this union and I choose to sabotage it” Rachel added while staring at the lawyer keenly. “I believe this is not yet another outburst of epiphany on your side and you've thought this process through.....Mrs Rachel”The office she sat in exuded a sense of knowledge and power,with the walls lined with law books and legal documents.She was awed with her mouth flung open at the minimalistic artwork,reflecting the serious nature of the practice.She may have not noticed the amount of sophistication the office held until then. “Mrs Rachel!!!”The lawyers stentorian voice blared in the room bringing her back to reality. “If you may need a marriage counselor before you go through with this divorce,I could direct
CHAPTER 33 Freckles Derek stood motionless as he scrolled through his playlist for the perfect song to play. He had almost nothing on except a pair of tight designer briefs, the kind where the elastic waistband is all that covered your rear. His chest was patterned with crisscrossing tan lines from high school football workouts, each one a reminder of his commitment to discipline and excellence. The track finished loading, and soft music began to emanate from his speakers. "What do I do for love?" Derek sang along in a smooth voice that would have melted any heart within a half-mile radius. There was nothing to do for love but he sang along anyway. All these were done to take his mind off the fact that he had finally left Clarke for good.He could not still sit well with the fact that they wouldn't be sleeping together anymore. Anything to his single mom, charity."Oh," he belted out in mock despair, "don't know what to do." Everything he did seemed like too little. His apartm
CHAPTER 32Eyes wide open,followed by an ear- piercing scream filled with terror rang out in the room.Rachel sat up on the bed covered in cold sweat,shaking,heart pounding,looking around the room suspicious and paranoid that the horror may have followed her here.Clarke sprang up from the bed to his disturbed wife. “Baby....what happened??!!”He was panting as though he had a similar nightmare. “Pinch me”Rachel ordered sternly.Clarke pinches her,pain waves diffuses into her body as though a bolt of lightening had struck her from head to toe. She heaves a sigh of relief as it was confirmed she was back to reality. “Where the fuck did you go last night??” she asked,eyes wide,ever ready to pluck his eyeballs out. “Babe....you haven't explained this sudden jolt out of bed ...you scared me”Clarke sounded with so much concern.He ran his hand through her hair and smeared the little droplet of tears off her face. “Baby you can always tal
CHAPTER 31Hormones Rachel gasped, her eyes wide with shock as she slowly spun in place. She stumbled like a drunken sailor around her parlor, arms flailing wildly as if searching for something that wasn't there. "But it was just a dream," she whimpered, bringing her shaking fingers up to pinch her skin. Pain surged through her body and proving the nightmare was real. The sound of commercials blaring from the TV seemed distant and insignificant compared to the thumping of Rachel's heart and the rush of adrenaline coursing through her veins. A heavy weight hung around her neck, pressing against her collarbone with an unnatural strength. She didn't know if it was fear or reality choking the life out of her, but it grew more oppressive by the second. She could not resist the impulse to touch this object.Mustering all her courage, Rachel reached up to feel a smooth metal chain she never wore before. It felt both strange and familiar on her skin. She bent and gazed keenly. It was si
CHAPTER 30Rachel slumps woodenly on the couch breathing profusely like she has just run a mile. “ooh Lord...”She claps her hand in a prayer position and bows her head. “Dorothea Puente....Joanna Dennehy and their likes did worse than I did and they didn't suffer this guilt.....please take my guilt away”.The dark and intense scent that evokes facets of saffron was not perceived in the room,Clarke's absence was definitely smelled.She draws out her phone from her purse,and checks the time. “Its none of my business.....he is a grown man anyways”She shrugs her shoulders and proceeds to her room.Meanwhile,Clarke perched anxiously on the large stools in the bar,sipping slowly his cold beer. “......you are waiting for Derek,I presume?”The fine, luxurious looking bartender asked as he passed another glass of beer to Clarke. “I haven't seen him in a long time and he isn't really picking my calls or replying my text.....I'm so scar
CHAPTER 29I'M OKAYThe wind blew gently against Rachel's face as she drove around, tears streaming down her cheeks. She couldn't believe what had just happened back at the Cathedral. All she wanted was to confess her sins and seek solace, but instead, she got more than she bargained for. As she drove aimlessly around the city, she couldn't shake off the feeling of guilt and shame that had engulfed her. She had always been a good girl, a devout Catholic when she was younger, and now, she felt like she had failed herself and her faith. She drove on for what seemed like hours until she reached a secluded spot by the riverbank. Without hesitation, she pulled over, got out of her car, and sat down on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably. Suddenly, she heard a voice behind her. "Are you okay, miss?" Rachel turned around and saw a man standing there. He was tall, fair, and handsome, with piercing blue eyes that seemed to see right through her. It was Derek.When she finally recognized h
CHAPTER 28As it was every morning,the birds chirping,the bustling noise of humans strutting along the street to thier daily work.Rachel was cradling a pillow to her chest as she stirred with discomfort in her sleep.The sun was beaming through the open blinds and she groans when the beams of sunlight hit her face. “Ugh!!...another wonderful day to be alive”she projected sarcastically.She sits still on the bed,yawning audibly and rubbing the leftover sleep off her eyes.Rachel tugs on the duvet and it didn't budge,she turns towards her right and her fine husband laid peacefully on the duvet extremely far from reality.Anger curled unstoppable in her guts,like a blazing furnace that wanted to burn her from the inside out.She gave her adorable husband a piercing gaze as she clinched her jaw firmly as though about to crush her teeth. “Fucking lunatic”she yelled inside of her as she tugged harder at the duvet.The duvet unwraps itself from Clarke and his majesty woke to a st
CHAPTER 27THE PRIEST "I need someone to talk to, I don't trust therapy""Like I said you have come to the right place, follow me"They both walked towards the altar and it was when Rachel had gone closer that she realized that they were several doors for several priests in the church but he was in the middle.He held the doorknob tightly and opened the door, almost twisting his wrist.She followed him into his room like his disciple. "Close the door" he ordered while taking off his coat.She did as he said immediately."Young lady, what is your name?""Rachel" she replied, moving her eyeballs in an anti-clockwise direction, observing the room to see what she can use as a weapon in case he tries to do something unusual."Okay, Rachel can you please sit down?""thank you" Rachel gently sat on the black plastic chair opposite his table and chair." you mentioned earlier that you don't trust therapy""yes""why is that" "Therapy isn't safe and they would only advice you because they
