FreyaI could walk into this spa any time and I would still be attended to with great care, but still, I love to make appointments prior to my visit. “Did they change the decor in here or has it been that long since I came here?” Sonia let out as we got into the massage room.“Yes, we did change some things to make the experience better for our gorgeous clients like you… and then, yes, it’s been a while since we had the pleasure of working on you, ma’am.” Ryan let out while we both looked in his direction immediately.We had no idea he was in the other room and listening to us. He had a broad smile as we all locked eyes. “Ryan!!” Sonia and I both let out and the next thing I knew, she was in his arms hugging and pressing him tightly to her body, which made me wonder why, but I tried not to look surprised.“I missed you, Ryan.” She let out while he finally managed to fight free from her tight grip. “We missed you here as well,” he chimed in, and before she could hug him again, he qu
SoniaI thought seeing Dennis' face would douse the embarrassment I got from the stupid masseuse. How could he turn down a sexy woman like me? How dare he? Anyway, it’s his loss, if he doesn’t want to have me, it’s his loss and he can f*ck off for all I care. The moment he turned his back on me and walked out of the room, any bit of attraction I had for him vanished immediately. I was back to thinking about my husband. I turned around and saw Freya on call with him. I was still very mad at him, but his voice somehow calmed my nerves and I really wanted to talk to him. “I want to talk to him… let me…” I hadn’t finished when I heard the beep at the end of the call. Freya had hung up. She actually ended the call, and it didn’t matter that she said it was Dennis who did it. I knew she didn’t want me to talk to him, else, she would have asked him to wait and let me join the call. But I wasn’t going to let that bother me. I knew the best way to get my way. I would just go home with he
Freya“Clowns…” that was all I could say as I sat at my dressing table in front of my computer, watching as the two fools made a fool of themselves. It was so satisfying to watch them think they were doing their thing behind my back, not knowing I was watching and hearing every damn thing. They might have just talked out instead of suppressing the emotions and anger that they tried so hard to hide in their muffled voices.I kept sipping my juice while laughing and watching them clown on. How fast the tables have turned, and do I love it? Oh yes, I absolutely love it. Dennis got me juice and pizza on his way back from work, and was hoping we would have dinner together. But the second he heard Sonia was in the house, he became restless and suddenly remembered he was full. He asked me to enjoy dinner while he excused himself to get something downstairs in the living room. I knew he was going to Sonia’s room, but I just played along. I let him press his lips against my forehead befor
Dennis I couldn’t sleep well throughout the night. After the drama Sonia displayed last night, I was on my way in over my head. I kept tossing on the bed till Freya noticed and asked if anything was going on.I pretended everything was fine and that I just wanted her in my arms. She smiled and rolled into my arms while I kissed her and then pretended to sleep off.I didn’t. A few minutes later when I was sure she was back to sleeping, I opened my eyes and stayed that way for a long time. I managed to get some sleep before dawn but once it was morning and Freya woke up, I got up too.“Good morning, my love.” I chimed in as a placed a deep kiss on her lips. She smiled, and I held her tight in my arms.“Good morning, were you able to get some sleep? You seemed disturbed throughout the night?” She asked while I smiled.“I wasn’t disturbed, and I was able to sleep once I was holding you in my arms.” I replied while she nodded.“That’s good then. I have a meeting very early in the morning
Freya“You know I never thought about it that way… thank you for always having my back. I would have been so naive without you.” I finally let out while he smiled.“I love you, and that’s what you do when you’re in love, have your partner’s back.” He chimed in.At least both husband and wife have that in common - delusion.They both think they have me fooled and hooked on their lies, when in fact they are the ones in my trap.“You look so beautiful today. I wish I could stay with you all day and see your face. But since I can’t have that, I’d just settle for a nice picture of you.” He added sharply and then took out his phone.“Ohh, my battery is low… can I use yours?” He chimed in while I nodded and passed it to him. He took a few pictures and then went on to do some other things in the name of sending them to his phone, but I knew he was doing something else. I didn’t attempt to interrupt him though, I just let him do his thing while I focused on packing my things.“Here, I’m done.
FreyaI stepped out of the building, the faint evening breeze brushing against my skin as the golden hues of the sunset painted the sky. The driver was still standing by the car, his head slightly bowed as he spotted me. He opened the door with a respectful nod while I offered him a polite smile before stepping inside… and then I froze. There he was. Victor.He sat in the backseat, dressed in an impeccably tailored suit that hugged his broad shoulders perfectly. A dark navy blue, paired with a crisp white shirt and a slim black tie. He looked… breathtaking. His neatly styled hair, the faint stubble on his jawline, and that warm, mischievous smile tugging at his lips, it was unfair how effortlessly handsome he was. And to think I wasn’t expecting to see him in the car. I thought he just sent the car over to pick me up.Ohh… what a pleasant surprise! A relief from the nightmare I had been enduring with Dennis and Sonia in my hair.“Hi,” I managed to say, biting back a smile as I se
Freya “Can I kiss you?” Victor asked in a very low tone, almost as if he was whispering.My heart skipped for a second when I heard this, and I couldn’t look into his eyes anymore. I looked away and wanted to remove my hand from his, but he gripped me the more, but gently.“I know you’re wondering why I asked, but I didn’t want to do anything you didn’t want. The last time I kissed you without your consent, you didn’t seem to like it and it almost affected us. I don’t want that to happen again. That is why I’m asking this time.” He went mute and stared at me again, but I still wouldn’t look at him.He then slowly held my chin up and turned my face, so I could look at him.“Can I kiss you, Freya?” He asked again.“You don’t want to? That’s fine…”“I made out with Dennis this morning!” I let out, cutting him abruptly.His jaw dropped and I felt his grip loosen. “Wow… I don’t know what to say to that.” He finally found his voice.“I really can’t even explain how it happened or why I al
VictorMy whole body was shaking as I opened the door to my bedroom and went. Freya’s words kept replaying in my head and it was really affecting my brain.My mood was completely ruined, and I barely kept calm throughout the drive to her house. It took all the willpower in me to stay calm throughout all her small talks. I just had to play along and pretend everything was alright. I couldn’t let her see that I was pained because, in actual sense, I couldn’t be angry. I had no right to. She’s not my woman, so why should I be mad that she made out with another man, and her fiancé at that?The moment she got out of the car and the driver zoomed off, all the emotions I had bottled in all kicked in at once and I almost couldn’t bare it. I started shaking, and I just had to think of a distraction to get myself back in control. Stacey was the only person that came to mind…“Well, well, well, to what do I owe this call from my billionaire brother?” She exclaimed and normally, I would have bur
Freya After Victor left for work, I just pushed aside the tray and crashed back into the bed. I had little to no sleep at all throughout the night. I kept tossing from side to side, trying to get everything out of my head. I did that for a long time before I could eventually get some sleep, and it hadn’t even been an hour before I heard Victor’s knock. I think it did me some good, talking to him and getting some food in me. I don’t think I will be able to get myself to eat throughout today. “Argggggh… f*ck you, Dennis!!” I screamed angrily while I ran my hands through my hair. I thought exposing him for who he is was all to it, but it seemed that even made it worse for me. I can’t believe he’s out of my life and still wreaking havoc…I picked up my phone just in time to get a text message from Victor.“I know what you’re about to do. Don’t do it. Stop checking, I have it all under control already.” I smiled as I read the words out, but I didn’t listen. I went ahead to check and,
SoniaThe night at the police station felt like a never-ending nightmare. The cold metal bench beneath me, the dim lights flickering overhead, the muffled sounds of inmates arguing, it all felt surreal. I hadn’t stopped shaking since the moment we were separated. Every second stretched endlessly, the knot in my stomach growing tighter with each tick of the clock. Dennis hadn’t even looked at me. Not once. I’d spent most of the drive here pleading with him to talk to me, to at least let us talk and reason together. We both said mean things to each other in the heat of the moment, but he was taking it too far… ignoring me and refusing to talk to me. I mean, we have no one but each other… we planned it all together and a little bust isn’t the end of it. Dennis was playing right into Freya’s hands, she wanted us divided because she knew that was the only way she could win. I won’t let that. I would have gotten through to him in the car if the officers had to shut me up when my voice
VictorThe first thing I checked as I opened my eyes was the time. I heaved a sigh of relief when I saw it was only fifteen minutes to six in the morning. I would have set an alarm if I was back at home, but I didn’t want anything to disturb Freya’s sleep. I knew it must have been a bit difficult for her to get some sleep.I stayed put on the sofa, staring at the ceiling, and before I knew it, I had drifted back into a short sleep. I saw the morning light streamed through the curtains and then checked the time again. It was twelve minutes past six now and though I had an important meeting later, I indulged my mind in the different thoughts that were fighting for attention. All thoughts were entirely consumed by Freya. I’d even spent half the night wondering if she was okay. The weight of everything she had been through hung in the air like an unspoken truth, and I knew today wasn’t going to be any easier for her. I sat up, did a little meditation to prepare myself ahead for the da
FreyaSeeing the tears in my eyes scared Victor so much. He didn’t even wait a second before snatching the phone from me the moment I turned the screen to him.“See for yourself…” that was all I could manage to say. He kept scrolling through while I started pacing the room, the headlines screaming loudly at me. After everything, how could they still be blaming me? “This isn’t good.” He finally found his voice, while I quickly turned back to him.“I know right. I mean I am the victim here. Why am I still the one getting all the hate? Why? Was I supposed to cover for my cheating fiancé? Is that really what they want from me? To cover for him, keep sponsoring his affair with my money? Keep quiet while he keeps f*cking that b*tch?” I let out and just had to stop when the tears started to choke me. I crashed heavily onto the sofa, and it got out of my control. I couldn’t stop the tears from coming, but I was silent. It was more of a quiet sobbing and that was the worst. I knew I was goi
VictorI got into the kitchen with high expectations, ready to impress Freya with my cooking skills, and I was really trying… or I thought I was… until I stopped for a moment and took a look at what I had done.It was a complete mess!The kitchen smelled of chopped onions, raw chicken, and a faint hint of garlic from the clove I had just crushed. The scene before me was nothing short of chaos, bowls stacked on top of each other, half the flour on the counter instead of in the bowl, and an unopened can of tomatoes rolling dangerously close to the edge. I stood there with my hands on my hips, staring down at the assortment of ingredients I had pulled out, my confidence already dwindling. How hard could cooking be? Just follow a recipe, right? Wrong. There was no need to cry over spilled milk. I needed to find a way out and fast. The first idea that popped into my head was YouTube. I was confident I was going to find help there.The first video I pulled up was a cheerful chef who s
Freya “Who was that?” I asked once Victor was off the phone. He showed the screen to me and I saw it was Jeff.“Jeff?” I quizzed while he nodded slowly.“Why was he calling you?” I pressed.“He said he needed Officer Kane’s number. He was one of the officers that came to arrest those fools.” He chimed in.“Let me just send it to him,” he added, and then proceeded to do some things on his phone before looking back up to face me.“Let’s get you something to eat now. I’m sure you haven’t had anything to eat all day. Did you?” he asked, while I just crashed onto the sofa. The last thing on my mind was food.“No, I didn’t, but I honestly don’t think I have the appetite. Maybe I will feel better tomorrow and eat something,” I replied, while he scoffed.“No can do, ma’am. You’re eating tonight and that’s final. Even if I have to feed it to you, I will. I’m not sitting by and watching you starve yourself when you should actually be celebrating right about now. I mean, you did that. You stoo
JeffMy head rested against the cool glass, my eyes staring blankly at nothing in particular, as the driver drove through the busy streets. The ache in my chest was unbearable and no amount of deep breaths or thinking could ease it. I raked my fingers through my hair for what felt like the hundredth time, tugging slightly at the strands as if that would somehow pull the pain out of me. How could she? - I kept asking myself. Sonia. The woman I had loved with every fiber of my being. The woman I had planned a future with. I had adjusted my entire life, my ambitions, and my plans to include her and our baby… or at least the baby I thought was mine. My fists clenched at the thought. The baby isn’t even mine. “Sir, are you okay back there?” the driver asked hesitantly, his eyes meeting mine briefly in the rearview mirror. I cleared my throat, trying to sound composed despite the chaos in my chest. “I’m fine. Just… keep driving.” The driver nodded silently and focused back on t
FreyaI just couldn’t wrap my head around how much of a shameless wh*re Sonia was. Even after everything, she still had the gut to try to spin a lie against Victor…“That man raped me! Victor Whitmore!! He rap*d me!!!” Sonia started to yell the moment she sighted the police. She turned to everyone but only cold stares from the guest. They were all amazed by her shamelessness. Who wouldn’t?“Freya, tell them! You know he was the man who harassed me then. You know that Freya, tell everyone! You can’t turn your back on me now. I’m your sister, you said so yourself, you need to talk please. I know you’re mad at me right now, but that doesn’t mean you turn a blind eye and just let the man who harassed your sister hold you like that!!” I was so irked by her words. It was such a disgrace to even be associated with her. How could I be friends with such evil? “You’re not my sister, Sonia. You never were, it just took me long to realize it and, now that I know, it stays that way.” I let out,
Sonia“Dennis! How could you…” Freya didn’t let me finish before she turned to me and cut me off.“Ohh save your strength. There’s no need to shout and startle my guest. If he says it’s fake, then what about this?” She let out just in time for another video to come on. This time, it was the one from the restroom where Dennis and I were just having s*x. I couldn’t even fathom how they recorded it but whoever set the camera did a really good job. They got all angles and there was no way Dennis could deny it now. Our faces were as clear as the day, and the way he f*ked me silly showed he wasn’t forced. It was with his full consent.“She couldn’t have doctored this in such a short period, especially since you seemed in control and still in the same suit… or did you, Sonia?” Freya suddenly asked, but I couldn’t say a word. I opened my mouth but no words came out. I looked at Dennis and I saw the scare on his face as he raked his hands shakily through his hair. I couldn’t really read his
