Sonia

I walked out of that event hall with my head held high. Not because I wasn’t shaken. Not because I wasn’t furious. But because I had to. I had to at least pretend I had control over the situation, even when my entire world had just come crashing down on me.

Inside, I wanted to scream. To jump at Freya and dig my fingers into every corner of her face.

But more than that, I wanted to undo what just happened. Adrian was supposed to be mine. That has been the plan ever since I sighted him at the store and walked up to him. I have spent every hour since then playing my part perfectly. Laughing at all his jokes, pretending to be fascinated by his boring business talk, wearing the exact type of dress I knew would tickle his fancy, touching him just enough to keep him wanting more but never giving in completely.

It was all working. I knew it was working. Until stupid Freya decided to play the saint and ruin it all. I can’t even believe the speed with which she opened her mouth, and

  • Too Late To Love, I want Revenge Now!   Marry me and I’ll help you get revenge

    FreyaI felt my heart tighten in my chest as I watched with horror, my fiancé and my best friend having sex in the hotel. They were so engrossed and couldn’t even care less that they were half naked and anyone who cared, could see them from the glass wall of the building’s fourth floor. Sonia was pressed to the wall while Dennis worked her insides from behind. I couldn’t hear her moans but with every second that I imagined it, my heart sank the more.Tears flooded my face as I flashed into the last two years of my life when I met Dennis. He was everything I wanted and more. Tall, handsome, broad shoulders and chest, I couldn’t stop drooling as he pulled me into a hug. For a moment there, my heart forgot how to beat, and the moment he smiled and introduced himself, I knew I was going to marry him. I had fallen hard in love with him.Before then, Dennis and I had been talking online for two months. Sonia matchmade us, and though I didn’t want another relationship at the time, she had con

  • Too Late To Love, I want Revenge Now!   What a fool I have been…

    FreyaI felt a stray tear trickle down my face.I was still sitting on the bed in my lingerie while Dennis snored away. I looked at the gift box in my hand, and another tear came running. That was all I was worth. A gift to shut me from using my head.I pulled the ribbon and opened it. It was a necklace. A diamond necklace. It must have cost him a fortune. My fortune. Five hours ago, it would have meant the world to me and I would have sneaked into the bathroom to sing his praises to Sonia, and thank her for giving me the best man, Dennis. She would have smiled and pretended to have my back.Ohh Freya, what a fool you have been.I was still wallowing in self-pity when his phone beeped. For the first time in our relationship, I felt the urge to check it. I gently reached into his pocket and took it. It was Sonia and I wasn’t surprised.“Why aren’t you picking up? Are you home yet?” with so much anger, I went through his text messages, desperate to find something to prove his cheating a

  • Too Late To Love, I want Revenge Now!   I want her

    Victor"This way then, my queen." I said to Freya with a gentle smile, while I held out my hand and saw her off to the car.I stood there, watching till her car was out of sight. I could literally taste the joy in my throat. I had been waiting for her for so long, and it had been so painful watching her love the wrong person who didn’t love her.Right from the first time I set my eyes on Freya, I wanted her. She had dreamy blue eyes, while her lush hair bounced over her shoulders. Her makeup was light, but it complimented her face and her beauty made those billboard models look like novices.“That’s my girl…” I had said to myself as I stared at the picture on her page over and over.When I finally peeled my eyes from my phone screen, I called my private investigator to run a quick search on her.We were supposed to meet on a blind date, but she stood me up. That was a first. No woman had ever done that.Abandon me on a date? Me? Victor Maddox, the handsome billionaire heir.Women floc

    FreyaThroughout the drive back home, my mind was blank. I intentionally forced myself not to think. I know how carried away I get when my mind is shuffling through thoughts. I almost drove myself into an accident when I was going earlier. I’m not going to do that to myself again this time.Kill myself over a man who doesn’t give a f*ck about me and busy screwing my best friend?Best friend? Really? How could you still be calling that back-biting b*tch ass wh*re your best friend? - a thought rose in my head.I took in a deep breath and then let it out slowly as I blanked out my mind. I pulled into the driveway and then went into the house.I was sleek and quiet, making sure not to wake him up.Watching him snore away like his life depended on it, I was filled with rage again. I grabbed my pillow and for a second there, I felt the urge to stifle the life out of him with the pillow… but I didn’t.Instead, I curled into his arms and pretended like nothing happened. He pulled me in closer

    SoniaMy head forgot how to beat for a few seconds after Freya told me Dennis was cheating.“What? Where? When? How?” That and more questions fought in my head as I quickly drove down to her house. I didn’t even know what to think. I knew I had to see her and get to the root of it all. I needed to know everything she knew, so I could know the next step to take.“I couldn’t see the lady’s face. Dennis’ back was blocking my view, all I knew was he was with someone.”“What about pictures? Did you take any? You know I might know the lady, and we’ll know what to do from there.” That was my own concern.All her other talks about satisfying him only for him to cheat and betray her, weren’t any of my business. That was between her and Dennis. All I needed to know was if she had evidence.“No, I didn’t take pictures. The thought didn’t even cross my mind until I confronted him when he got back home, and he denied it. It was his words against mine, since I had no proof.” She retorted and then b

    Freya“You’re done eating already?” Sonia asked, while I nodded.“You stayed long, and I was hungry, so yes, I’m done.” I let out, and she smiled while coming back to sit beside me.I actually didn’t eat the food. I couldn’t. Not after seeing the way she hung her legs over my fiancé’s head and let him f*ck her like the wh*re that she is. How could I then eat the food that she prepared after that horrible scene? What if she poisoned it? At least that would make their plans come through faster. I would be out of the picture, and they would have access to everything their greedy ass ever wanted…“I’m coming… let me get the nail kit, you need some manicure and pedicure.” Sonia suddenly let out, abruptly pulling me from my thoughts.“But I just did them a week ago.” I didn’t want her anywhere close to the sensitive parts of my body.“A week ago? Girl! That’s long enough for a do-over!” She let out and then ran upstairs while I stared long at the nails.She soon came back with my nail box a

    Sonia“Babe…” I quickly ran to the door once I heard his voice.It was Dennis and though I had been boiling with rage ever since he got back this evening, the moment I opened the door and saw his face, all the anger dissolved.“Took you so long… were you f*cking her?” I asked, rolling my eyes and pretending to be angry.He smiled and pulled me into his arms while I tried harder to hold back the blush. He started kissing me all over the face, and before I knew what was going on, I was already smiling sheepishly.“See? I always get you. You can't be mad at your man.” He retorted while I gently hit his chest and pushed him off.“Why didn’t you tell me about the surprise? And what was that about? Kissing and drooling all over her? Are you in love with her now?” I quizzed, rolling my eyes again.He wanted to pull me into his arms again, but I stepped back.“No, you don’t get to do that. I want answers, use your words and not your hands.” I said frankly.“Well, I did tell you I would handle

    Freya“Heyyy…” I let out as I stepped into the kitchen and saw Sonia making breakfast.“Why are you bothering yourself this early morning?” I asked while she smiled.“It’s not a bother. You’re not well, and I thought to make breakfast for you and Dennis,” she explained.“But…”“No buts. You’re not a bother, and I’m happy to do it.” She affirmed.“Here, I’ll serve your food now. Come over.” She chimed in and then started serving the dinette while I took a seat.The door opened and Dennis appeared. I caught the knowing glance they both exchanged, but then pretended like I didn’t see.He came over and kissed me on the lips while Sonia stood behind me. I knew they would still be sharing the glances but do I care?“Morning my love…” he finally found his voice.“Good morning Dennis…” Sonia quickly replied before I could.I closed my mouth and smiled. Well, of course, she was his love, so why should I be the one replying?“Morning Sonia. Hope you slept well?” He turned to her.“Yes, I did. W

  • Too Late To Love, I want Revenge Now!   Checkmate!!!

    FreyaI had never been more satisfied in my life. Standing there, watching Sonia’s entire new world crumble right before my eyes, was a moment I would never forget. She must have put a lot of effort into starting all over again with a new naive billionaire bjt I had just ruined all that for her. The way her smile faltered. The way the blood drained from her face. The way her fingers twitched, like she was scrambling for a way out but knew there was none. She had been exposed. And by the way Adrian’s entire demeanor changed, the flicker of realization in his sharp eyes, the disgust settling in his expression, it was clear that whatever web of lies she had spun around him had just snapped. Sonia must have felt it too because, in an instant, she switched tactics. “Adrian, baby, whatever she said…” she started, reaching for his arm. “Don’t touch me.” His voice was cold. Unforgiving. Sonia froze, her hand hovering in mid-air before she let it drop, looking up at him with wid

    Sonia“Alrighty… I’ll be right here.” I said to Adrian while he left to briefly see one of his colleagues. As I watched him get mixed up in the crowd. I finally let out a deep sigh of relief. Ever since we stepped into the hall, it has been one introduction after the other. I liked it though, especially because he was so proud of being seen with a beautiful damsel like me. I enjoyed the attention too, the lingering effect I had on them all. “Oh my goodness, why didn’t I even think about this?” I thought to myself as I scanned the whole place again. It was full of billionaires, men with wealth and power. I should have invested more in getting myself into places like this instead of getting stuck on Dennis, whose first instinct was to betray me in the face of trouble.I mean, who does that? It’s not his fault anyway. I clearly wasted my time with the wrong man. Just imagine Adrian, his girlfriend doesn’t even have to do much, and he wouldn’t think twice before getting her the whole u

  • Too Late To Love, I want Revenge Now!   Hello stranger!

    Freya I was untying my robe, ready to step into the shower, my phone rang. I glanced at the screen and immediately smiled seeing Victor’s face.Without wasting a second, I answered, my voice soft and teasing. “Missing me already?” The second I saw his face on the screen, though, my teasing smile faltered. His expression was tense, his brows pulled together in a way that told me something was off. I straightened up. “What’s wrong?” Victor let out a small sigh, rubbing the back of his neck. “The meeting got extended.” I blinked. “Extended?” He nodded, looking visibly frustrated. “Yeah. It was supposed to wrap up today, but there are still some loose ends to tie up. I won’t be able to leave first thing in the morning like we planned.” He let out a rough sigh. “I hate this. I want to be there with you.” I couldn’t help but smile at how sincere he sounded. “Victor, it’s fine.” I tilted my head, trying to reassure him. “It’s just a day or two, right? You’ll get everything don

    Sonia“I don’t want to take up too much of your time,” he said, rubbing the back of his neck. “I just wanted to make sure you got home safely.” He finally found his voice after furrowing his brows in hesitation as he considered my offer. I smiled sweetly, tilting my head just a bit. “Oh, come on. It’s just a glass of juice. Five minutes, tops.” I let out a soft laugh. “Unless you’re worried I’ll poison you?” He chuckled, shaking his head. “That’s not it.” “Then what?” I pouted playfully. “You did something nice for me today. Let me return the favor, even if it’s just with a simple drink.” I could see the internal debate happening behind his eyes, but I knew I had him. Finally, with a small sigh, he nodded. “Alright. But just for a bit.” I grinned. “Great! Come on in.” I led him inside, making sure to sway my hips just enough to keep his eyes on me. Once inside, I gestured toward the couch. “Make yourself comfortable.” He looked around briefly before settling into the plus

    SoniaAs I stepped into the store, I barely spared a glance at the bright fluorescent lights or the soft hum of customers moving around me. My focus was entirely on getting my groceries and getting out.Not that I particularly enjoyed shopping for basic necessities. No, I hated it. It reminded me of how low I had sunk, how far I had fallen from the life I once had. The life where I could walk into high-end boutiques and splurge on designer bags without batting an eye. But now? Now, I was stuck here, clutching my nearly empty wallet and calculating every single item I picked up like some desperate, broke girl. I sucked in a sharp breath, trying not to let my irritation show as I scanned the price tags. Every single one seemed to mock me. A box of cereal was enough to take out a chunk of what little I had left. A bottle of milk? That’s practically robbery. A muscle in my jaw ticked as I stared at my basket, already feeling the heavy weight of frustration settle in my chest. This

  • Too Late To Love, I want Revenge Now!   Can’t wait to be back in control!

    SoniaI sat on the couch in my tiny, almost-suffocating apartment, my nails tapping impatiently against the armrest. The cheap fabric scratched against my skin. Of course, it was manageable, but it was such a far cry from the luxurious furniture I once lounged on without a care. My phone screen lit up with another failed call attempt. Blocked.I gritted my teeth, fighting the urge to throw the damn thing across the room. Dennis had completely shut me out. No texts, no calls, no way of reaching him. I let out a bitter laugh. After everything I did for him. After all the times I had his back, all the times I fought for him, lied for him, gave up my damn dignity for him… this is how he repays me? I even went against my best friend and this is all I get in return? He’s treating me like I’m nothing. Like I never even mattered. The worst part? I knew Dennis. I knew how his mind worked. He wasn’t avoiding me because he felt guilty. Dennis never felt guilt. No, he was staying away bec

    Freya The moment I finished eating, I rushed upstairs, my heart fluttering as I pulled out my phone. I barely hesitated before dialing Victor’s number. He picked up almost immediately, his deep voice sending a shiver down my spine. “Freya.” Just the way he said my name made my breath hitch slightly. There was something warm, possessive, and almost relieved in the way he spoke, like he had been holding his breath waiting for me to call. Before I could even respond, the screen changed. He had switched to a video call. I let out a soft laugh, shaking my head as I answered. His face appeared on my screen, and for a second, I just stared. His sharp features, dark, piercing eyes, and that slight smirk that always made my stomach flutter, it all hit me at once. “I miss you so damn much, babe. It’s like I’m lost here, I can’t even do anything well anymore.” He let out.“You just saw me yesterday, Victor.” I couldn’t hide the amusement in my voice. He scoffed, shaking his head.

    DennisI leaned back in my chair, a smug grin stretching across my face as I tapped my fingers rhythmically against the desk. I had won. Freya’s dad must be losing his damn mind right now, trying to figure out how to bury the bomb I just dropped on him. Freya is my wife. Not by choice, of course, but the world doesn’t need to know that. I knew Edward well enough to predict his next move. He’d never let a scandal like this stain his family’s reputation. He would do what any powerful businessman would damage control. That meant he had two options. Either make the marriage public and spin the narrative in a way that favors them, or arrange an extravagant event to announce it. Either way, it worked in my favor. One way or another, Freya will be mine again. I chuckled, leaning forward, my fingers hovering over the keyboard. The thought of watching her face as she realized she had no choice but to accept me back into her life was almost too good. She hates me now, sure. But Fre
