FreyaI waited till Dennis was out of my compound before I made my way into the house. I slammed the door shut behind me, the echo vibrating through the house. My heart was pounding, my cheek still stung as I hurried upstairs into the room, but it was nothing compared to the fire roaring in my chest.He hit me. Dennis. The man I once trusted, once loved. I never thought he could sink so low. I had done nothing but love him and showed him time after time how much he meant to me, but he dared put his hands on me?Storming back into the living room, I grabbed the half-full glass of whiskey I’d left on the bar cart earlier. I didn’t even care about the burn as I took a long, hard sip. The liquid scorched my throat, but it didn’t dull the anger. Nothing could.How dare he? Accusing me of cheating? Like I owe him any loyalty? Like I wasn’t already humiliated by his reckless affair with Sonia. The betrayal cut deeper than any slap ever could. And now, he had the audacity to come into my home,
Victor“Urghhh… I think I should rest now.” I muttered to myself as I sent the final copies of the contract to my assistant. I should have worked on the document at the office, but I was so occupied with some urgent paperwork. I got home so tired, but I couldn’t go to bed yet, not until I went over the fifty pages of document, signed it and then sent it to my assistant to finish up. I turned off my laptop, and stretched as I made my way into the bathroom for a quick shower.I got back into the room just as my phone started to ring. I moved over to the desk where I left it, and glancing over, I saw the name flashing on the screen. It was one of my informants. “Yes, speak!” I let out firmly.“Sir,” he said urgently. “Dennis was at Freya’s house.” “He... hit her,” the voice hesitated, as if bracing for my reaction. “What? What happened? Is she okay?”“Yes, she is. She handled it.” He replied and I felt my anger surge.“What the heck do you mean she handled it? You mean you guys sta
SoniaI opened my eyes and found myself wrapped in the warmth of Jeff’s arms, his steady heartbeat a soothing rhythm against my ear. The golden morning sunlight streamed through the curtains, bathing the room in a soft glow. I tilted my head to look up at him, and he was already awake, watching me with that slow, crooked smile that always made my stomach flutter. “Good morning, beautiful,” he murmured, his voice husky and filled with tenderness. “Good morning,” I whispered back, unable to stop the smile spreading across my face. “Why were you staring so hard?” I quizzed while he smiled. “I just can’t get over how beautiful it is to wake up next to your beautiful face every morning. I love you so much.” He chimed in while I blushed. “And I love you too.” I chimed in too, while his fingers brushed a strand of hair from my cheek, and then his lips captured mine in a kiss that deepened until it felt like the world outside the bed didn’t exist. One kiss turned into another, and bef
Dennis I woke up still with the thought of Freya troubling my soul. Last night was one of the longest nights I’ve had my entire life.I barely slept. The memory of Freya’s eyes, cold and distant, haunted me all night. I couldn’t believe what had happened, couldn’t believe I had let things get so out of control. I had let my emotions get the best of me. I may not love Freya that much, but a part of me still beats for her, and that was the first time I would be putting my hands on a woman. She brought out the beast in me. If only she hadn’t tried to prove stubborn… but then, I should have controlled myself too, knowing what I stood to gain.Now, I’m afraid she might have slipped through my fingers, and if I didn’t act fast, I would lose everything I had been working toward… the lifestyle, the power, her wealth.One thing though, I knew Freya better than anyone, all it would take was the right words, the right gesture, and she would forget all about what happened. It always worked, and
Sonia“Love you too, babe.” Jeff and I kissed each other goodbye. He wrapped me more tightly, and I had to wriggle my way out of his arms. He wasn’t ready to part ways with me yet.“No… babe!” He whined like a little baby, making me laugh.“Can’t afford to miss my flight…” I let out and then hurried away before he could get his hands on me again.I stopped briefly and then turned to blow him a kiss before running off.The hum of the plane engines was a dull backdrop to the whirlwind of thoughts in my mind. Jeff. His smile, the way he looked at me, the way he touched my belly, as if the baby inside was already his whole world. It was almost too much. He loved me, that much was clear. And he was ready to give me anything. I should be happy. Anyone else would be thrilled to have a man like him. Kind, rich, devoted, romantic… just name it, Jeff has all and more. But the truth gnawed at me, relentless and cruel. I was in love with Dennis. We are married and love each other.I glanced out
Warning: Explicit content!!!Dennis“Babe, where the heck are you? I’ve been trying to reach you for about two days now. What’s happening? Call me back immediately you get this, it’s urgent!” I yelled into the phone as I walked out of Freya’s office and got into the car.“Damn you, Freya!!” I slammed hard at the steering wheel. I was so mad with fury, Freya had embarrassed me, and that wasn’t even as annoying as the fact that she officially broke up with me. I thought I was teaching her a lesson, I thought she needed to realize what was at stake. Me. Our relationship. The one she desperately wanted.That was why I didn’t bother to beg her when she asked me to move out of the room, and then the house. We had been living together for over two years and I know how hooked she was on me. Her whole life revolves around me, so I was sure it was only a matter of time before she comes crawling back, begging me to take her back. “Does she really have proof that I’m cheating?” I thought to my
Sonia“That was f*cking crazy!!” Mia let out as she got off the sofa and made her way into the bathroom. I wanted to follow her, but Dennis pulled me back, and I crashed onto him on the sofa.“Babe,” “Did you have fun?” He mumbled to me while I rolled my eyes. Of course, I enjoyed it, but now that we’ve all let out the tension, do I still like the idea? Heck no? “Did I have fun sharing my man? Is that what you want to know?” I replied while he pulled me closer and wrapped his hands around me.“Come on, Sonia. You didn’t share me. I only belong to you, you own me. She means nothing. She’s just a plaything that we used to our advantage. She’s nothing but a random spice in our marriage.” He said reassuringly, and while I would like to believe him, I couldn’t. He looked very interested in what we had. And the way he stared in her eyes when he f*cked her, it was definitely not their first time and wouldn’t be the last if I just sat by and did nothing.And that’s not me! I’m not Freya. N
Sonia “Well, I think he’s going to care when he finds out you have a boyfriend, and you’re not only cheating on him, but also pregnant with your boyfriend’s dad's child.” She let out while I became weak on the spot. “What? Don’t go silent on me now, Sonia.” Mia chimed in when I wouldn’t say a word and just stood there, staring blankly at her.Only my eyes were on her, my mind was far gone. All I could think of was how she knew about my secrets. I had taken all the precautions to make sure no one else found out about it.How on earth did this b*tch know that I’m pregnant, and that it isn’t Jeff’s child, but his dad??“You don’t know what you’re saying, Mia, and for your own good, I’d advise you to mind the business that pays you. This is more than your child's mind can handle.” I let out sternly, hoping it would scare her off, but it didn’t. She burst into laughter and then gave me a onceover, making it obvious that she was calling my bluff. She was sizing me up and making it obvious
FreyaThe jet touched down smoothly, and as soon as the stairs were lowered, I made my way down, expecting to call a cab or have Chloe send one over. But the moment I stepped onto the tarmac, my eyes widened in surprise. A sleek black car was already waiting. Standing beside it was a man built like a damn tank… tall, broad-shouldered, dressed in all black, and with a face so stern it looked like he hadn’t smiled in years. I slowed my steps, my brows furrowing slightly. Who was this? Before I could ask, he took a step forward and gave me a slight nod. “Miss Freya,” he said, his voice deep and authoritative. “I’m Jordan, your personal security detail until Mr. Whitmore arrives. I’ll also be your driver.” My lips parted slightly in shock. Personal security? Driver? Victor… Of course. A warmth spread through me, and I shook my head with a soft chuckle. He really went all out, didn’t he? “You mean to tell me Victor actually sent you just for me?” I asked, still proc
Victor The moment I stepped back into the villa, the silence swallowed me whole. The place felt… different. The same villa. The same luxury. The same perfect view outside. But it wasn’t the same. Because she wasn’t here. I let out a slow, frustrated exhale and raked a hand through my hair, trying to shake off the unease creeping into my bones. The logical part of my brain kept repeating what I already knew, Freya was safe. She was on my jet, heading straight home, and the moment she landed, my best bodyguard would be there waiting to escort her. But logic didn’t do a damn thing to silence the voice screaming in my head that I should’ve been on that plane with her. I should’ve ignored the damn meeting. Should’ve put my business second, for once, and just gone with her. I paced across the room, fists clenching and unclenching. My mind refused to settle, jumping from one worst-case scenario to another. What if something went wrong? What if Dennis or Sonia had already put their p
VictorThe second Freya ended the call, she turned to me, her face set with determination. “I have to leave like right now...” I felt my entire body tense at her words. “Yes, we need to go.” My response was instant, firm. She blinked, startled by my reaction. “Victor… you can’t come with me. You know that too, right?” “No,” I repeated, stepping closer, my hands gripping her arms as I stared into her eyes. “You are not going back there alone. If Dennis and Sonia are out, we don’t know what they’re planning. It’s too dangerous.” She exhaled sharply, tilting her head as if trying to reason with me. “Victor, I understand you’re worried, but you can’t come with me. You have things to do here, and you can’t abandon that to come with me at such unplanned short notice.” I shook my head, my grip tightening slightly. “And I’m telling you that I won’t let you go into that situation without me.” She sighed, placing her hands on my chest in an attempt to soothe me. “Victor, you have a
Freya I stirred awake, feeling the warmth of Victor’s body beside me. The morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow over his sleeping form. My heart melted at the sight of him, his face so serene, lips slightly parted, thick lashes resting against his skin. He looked so boyishly peaceful, nothing like the intense, commanding man he is when he’s with his workers and investors. This was a side of him few ever got to see, and it was mine alone to cherish.I propped myself on my elbow, just watching him, tracing every perfect detail of his face with my eyes. The slight scruff on his jaw, the way his chest rose and fell in rhythmic breaths. He was truly handsome, and I felt a rush of love so strong it nearly overwhelmed me. I couldn’t help but giggle softly, giddy with the realization that he was mine.Not wanting to wake him just yet, I snuggled back into his arms, burying my face in the crook of his neck. His scent was intoxicating, and I found myself drifting bac
Freya I’d always thought the happiest day of my life was when Dennis proposed to me. I thought the next happiest day would be when he walked me down the aisle, but that didn’t happen, and I thought love wasn’t just my thing… well, until Victor happened. “You just made a new record for me, today is the happiest day of my life!” I let out slowly while Victor stole a quick glance at me, and smiled.“Me too. I haven’t had so much genuine fun in years,” he replied.“I can’t believe I’m doing this with the most beautiful woman in the world! I love you, Freya Rodgers!” he exclaimed, causing me to blush so much.“I can’t believe it either… I’m really doing life with my best man!!!” I shouted on top of my voice as I ran down the beach. Victor came right after me and chased me till he caught me. He immediately pulled me into a hug and locked his lips into mine in the sweetest kiss ever.Time stood still for about thirty seconds as we feasted on each other’s lips, passing a mix of love and aff
FreyaThe night had settled in beautifully, the sky a blanket of deep navy with scattered stars winking down at us. Just when I thought our day was over, I caught that mischievous twinkle in my boyfriend’s eyes.“One last stop,” I had said, watching as Victor’s brows lifted in surprise.I led him down a softly lit path, tiki torches and candle-lit lanterns casting a dreamy glow along the sand. The sound of the ocean waves gently kissing the shore filled the air, mingling with the soft chatter of people settling in for the night’s event. Right ahead, a giant screen stood tall, positioned so perfectly that the audience could enjoy the movie while the ocean remained in the backdrop, creating the most breathtaking scene.Victor took in the sight, and for a moment, he was quiet. Then, he turned to me, his lips tilting into a smirk. “You planned this too?”I smiled smugly. “Surprised?”He chuckled, slipping an arm around my waist. “Very. How did you even find out about this?”“I did my rese
DennisI wasn’t going to waste any more time. Freya was still in love with me, I knew it. That video she sent proved it. She wanted me to see her with Victor, to make me jealous. If she had really moved on, she wouldn’t have bothered. That meant I still had a chance. I just needed to get ahead of Victor before he tightened his grip on her. And there was no better way to do that than going straight to the source… her father. Standing outside the Rodgers estate, I straightened my jacket and took a deep breath. I knew this wasn’t going to be easy. Edward never liked me. He tolerated me, at best, when Freya and I were together. But now? After everything that had happened? Yeah, this was going to be a battle. Still, I wasn’t leaving here without what I came for. I found Edward in the living room, working in his study which he carved up in a corner. He barely looked up from the papers on his desk. He just sat there, composed, in control, like he always was. The room smelled of expen
VictorI knew Freya had something planned, but I wasn’t expecting this. The moment we stepped into the restaurant, I could already tell it was special. It had a sleek yet warm atmosphere, the kind of place that made you feel like time slowed down just enough for you to enjoy every second. At the front desk, Freya confidently handed over a reservation code. The hostess scanned it and smiled. “Right this way.” I followed Freya as we were led up a private staircase. When we reached the rooftop, I stopped in my tracks, completely taken aback. The view was stunning. The sun was high in the sky, casting a golden glow over the entire city. The rooftop was beautifully decorated with lush greenery, soft white drapes, and wooden tables adorned with delicate floral arrangements. A light breeze carried the faint aroma of fresh herbs and citrus, making the whole place feel like something straight out of a dream. I turned to Freya, raising a brow. “How the hell did you find this place?”
FreyaThe smell of freshly brewed coffee filled the room, and I smiled, watching Victor’s eyelids flutter open. His deep, drowsy gaze met mine, and for a moment, he just stared, as if making sure I was really there. Then, his eyes dropped to the tray of food sitting beside me on the bed, and his brows lifted in surprise. "Good morning, sleepyhead," I teased, nudging his shoulder gently. Victor stretched, his muscles flexing as he rubbed a hand down his face. "Morning babe," he murmured, his voice rough from sleep. "What’s all this?" "Breakfast," I said proudly. "I ordered in while you were sleeping." His lips quirked up in amusement. "And you did all this while I was dead to the world?" I nodded, grinning. "I was about to wake you, but then I got distracted." "Distracted?" He raised an eyebrow. I leaned closer, resting my chin on my palm as I looked at him. "You looked too handsome in your sleep," I admitted. "Like a baby." Victor chuckled, shaking his head. "You jus
