Fifty-Five: Younger Men
Last Updated:
2023-08-07 10:09:41She always thought of herself as someone who can only be attracted to men older than her. Never had she imagined something like this could happen.
When she's alone with Roman, their age difference never seems to matter. But when she's with other people, the one thing she often thinks about was their age gap.
She was having brunch with the wives. The fact that they are Roman's mother's friends didn't escape her, she could've been his mother's friend too if they had known each other before.
The way those women talked about him was degrading by any measure, to themselves, to Roman, to reduce a person by their age and their looks and basing it on sexual attraction. It made her re-evaluate her own attraction to Roman, was it just physical?
"His abs." "His tanned skin." "The bulge on his pants." "How long do you think he'd last?" "Hard." "Long." "A boyish smile."
Yikes, she thought.
She forced a smile once in a while pretending that it

His life was about to change. He hoped that it would be for the better, if not the best because he finally get to that place he'd worked so hard for. There's just a tiny problem. Someone is trying to taunt him by sending pictures of his ex-lover and illegitimate child. After Gil denied it, he didn't wholly cross his name from the list of people that has the potential to blackmail him. It was quite a long list. He didn't get to where he is without stepping on other people's toes, even if he had done it smoothly. Most people envy success rather than embrace it when it happens to others. He couldn't trust anyone, not even his mother. Mimi and his brothers were all on his list. He had at least five business rivals who pitched on the same deal he made with Brian Murphy. They were considered on his list too. Even Brian Murphy was not free from suspicion because he, too, would have something to gain from holding on to Declan's deepest darkest secret. They know his h

She sat on a stool in front of the canvas of a half-painted picture of her naked back. It was something Roman had been working on for weeks without a model. Just a very vivid memory of when they were together on the boat. A few passionate nights neither of them will ever forget. Roman stood behind her holding her hand and the brush in her grip. He moved their hands together and did strokes on the canvas. If only she knew how special it was to be the one holding the brush. In his entire career, he never let anyone hold his brush, it was sacred. He never even let anyone look at his work, not when he was still working on it. He pressed his face against her head, stealing kisses while his other arm was wrapped around her waist. He nibbled on her ear and tickled her with his prickly beard. She wriggled then he'd brush his face on her bare shoulder. She laughed. He kissed her neck. The painting was never going to be done. He was too in love with the person he tried

The anticipation ... every time he was coming to meet her, anywhere, anytime, the anticipation still feels like it did years ago when she could tell herself that Declan was hers. Her lover. The man she fell in love with accidentally but harder than anyone before him. There's no one after him. She found it impossible to love anyone else after what she had with Declan. There's love for her too, somewhere in him, not as great as how he feels for Olivia, but it's there ... lying silently, subtle and steady inside him that she was still able to see him time and time again. At least that's what she told herself. How ironic, the proudest thing she could ever claim was Declan Hunt is the father of her child, but it will never be validated by anyone, even if she would deny it if anyone would ask. The risk was too great. She loved Declan more than she needed her acceptance. As long as he was willing to admit it to her, and took care of the both of them, she was fine wi

When Olivia Harmon entered a room, heads turned. Dressed in red nonetheless. Sometimes he wondered if she really meant it when she said she didn't like to be the center of attention. He watched from the corner of his father's house as she walked in with her arm looped around Declan's. Her husband's adoring eyes look at her with a proud smile. Parading her around like she was his most prized possession. Maybe she was, there's nothing wrong with that. But it made his stomach turn. "Hey ... there you are," Selma tugged his shirt from behind. "What are you doing here?" He turned and sipped on his drink. He didn't want her to see he was watching Declan Hunt's wife like a hawk from the moment she stepped into the dining hall. "Nothing," he lied. "I was looking for you everywhere ... you could've at least pretended to care a little bit about your date?" she protested. He smiled, "You're right ... sorry ... I was wandering and found the cocktail

"What was that all about?" Selma asked when they arrived at the balcony. "Why didn't you tell me we were going to pull that stunt in front of everybody?" Roman leaned on the railing and lit up a cigarette, "I didn't think I had to do that until the last minute." Selma took the cigarette box from his pocket and lit one for herself, she stood beside him and studied his face. "It's her isn't it?" she cocked her head to one side as she blew a cloud of smoke. "Declan Hunt's wife? You're her lover?" she stroked the hair above his ear. He didn't respond, he just let out a long train of smoke into the cold night air. "Oh, Roman ... she's playing you, babe, why are you wasting your time with someone else's wife? Declan Hunt's nonetheless," she chuckled. "I sometimes wonder why you needed to hire a fake date ... I guess now I know the answer ... how long do you think you can pretend to be engaged with me?" He turned to look at her, "As long as i

The clues were all there, he just didn't notice it. He was ignorant, but because he thought Olivia would be the last person on earth that would ever betray him. LUDUS. The name of the Ocean Liner that Olivia went on a solo trip a couple of years ago. What are the odds of anyone would use the same name for their Art Gallery? The building was right across from his wife's studio and now they are business partners. That can't be a coincidence? Declan was looking at the picture of the dolphins at Roman's second-floor gallery. The sheer white sheet is now familiar to him, it was Olivia's. The one she often use when she was relaxing by the swimming pool to cover her bikini. He let out a long exhale to calm himself from the brewing heat inside him. They've spent almost all their working hours together, who knows what they're really doing? His behavior at the party was odd, to say the least. For someone who works close with his wife, he didn't show his face until the

He wasn't lying when he said they had sex last night. When he saw Roman come out of the bathroom, followed by Olivia not long after, he knew that was the confirmation. His heart fell to his stomach. He noticed her unusual quietness all the way home. He held her hand tightly, and she just sat by his side though her mind was somewhere else. He didn't confront her. He wanted to be absolutely sure of where he stood in all of it. Declan never took his eyes off her after they arrived home. She didn't even notice. Something happened in that bathroom. They didn't have sex. They couldn't have. It was too brief. She was upset though she tried to hide it. He walked over to her. They stood facing each other, looking into each other's eyes. Secrets. Now they both had secrets from one another. But in their bedroom, secrets don't matter. It was them who kept their secrets from the world. What they did together on their bed had nothing to do with anybody else. He undressed h

He knew. She could see it in his eyes when they got home from the party. The way he was looking at her ... reading her. He was furious, jealous, he was holding it back for some reason, but he knew. She felt it in his thrusts. He had never fucked her like that before. He was raping her in his mind. That was the closest description she could think of. She was being punished. She felt it. How messed up that she actually thought it was the best sex they had ever had throughout their entire marriage? She touched the bite mark on her left breast. The breast that Roman sucked in that bathroom just hours before. She put her hands on her face as the water washed over her. 'Fuck' she muttered to herself. Declan was not in the bedroom when she stepped out of the shower. The greatest sex of their marriage didn't change anything. He didn't come back to bed the whole night as she lay awake until sunrise. He was nowhere in the house when she finally woke up at midday.

Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Seventy-Eight: London
The moment they arrived in London, a call came in. The family lawyer informed them that their brownstone house in Lancaster had burned. The lawyer would contact the insurance company, and an investigation was underway. Declan left the matter to his lawyer's hand. He told them they could not return because they had just arrived and Olivia was not feeling well. They will have to do all interviews and communication through video calls. A few days after that, the news broke. Bodies were found in a family home in Chestnut. A mother and an 8-year-old boy they assume were her son were found in their car. It seemed like they had been dead for a few days. The police were looking for the husband. The scene indicated that the two deceased people had died from asphyxiation, an apparent murder-suicide inside the car. However, the car was already turned off when they found them. Someone was already there and failed to report the incident. Gil Isaac was now a wanted man.
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Seventy-Seven: Departure
Somewhere in Chestnut lies the body of a mother and son that had yet to be discovered. They had to go on knowing this and not do anything about it. They had to act as if everything was normal and they were leaving for London as scheduled. Their bags were packed for a month's stay, they left their instructions to their employees and gave their house staff a paid leave. Declan leaned on the doorway while Olivia was already waiting in the car. He looked around one last time to see if they had everything they needed. His eyes fell on the Blue Flame. He had bought the piece from Roman early on when he didn't know what it truly meant for any of them. "A blue flame represents many things to many people. It represents illumination and enlightenment. It could mean destruction and renewal, spirituality and also damnation ... it depends on which aspect you can relate to." Roman's voice echoed in his mind. "While blue is a color that presents coolne
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Seventy-Six: Confession
Declan ... my love ...If you're reading this ... that means I'm gone ...I have been contemplating this decision for the longest time.Our last meeting convinced me there is no hope for me ever to be together with you again.I don't want to live without you, especially when you love someone else on this earth.God knows I tried to do that, and it's killing me inside. It might as well kill me forever.Damien is such a sweet boy. He doesn't deserve this. He doesn't deserve an unhappy mother who's always bitter and angry because she couldn't be with his father, who has no love for either of us.He doesn't deserve to be in a world where he is not loved and treated like he didn't matter. I couldn't give that to him because I can't convince you to be the father he deserves.So I'm not leaving him behind. He is mine. He is my heart and soul.I promise this won't hurt. Not as much as knowing that you don't love me.I hope you find what you lost wit
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Seventy-Five: Silence
The silence was deafening. The clock on the dashboard said 3.30 AM. They had probably been cleaning since 12 AM. She could still smell the blood though she couldn't pinpoint where it originated. She scrubbed herself clean almost to the point where she scratched off the first layer of her skin. But the scent remained. They drove for almost an hour when Declan pulled to a construction site. She took a glance at the sign as they entered the area. It was one of his company's ongoing projects. They were building a factory. Heavy equipment was parked all over the site. The land was dug up in the middle. She started to get the idea of what Declan was planning on doing. "They're scheduled to dump the soil in the morning ... they had done the inspection yesterday. I'll dig a shallow grave, and they'll cover it up with tons and tons of soil in the morning," he sounded confident. She looked at him with an empty stare, still unsure about everything they were doin

"What?" Olivia froze. Her relief was short-lived when she realized it wasn't Roman. Panic sets in almost immediately. "Who the hell is that?" she was reluctant to look closer. The sight of blood on a dead body was not something she wanted to observe. Declan was breathing heavily. He shook his head and stroked his hair. "Get the tarp, Livy ... get some tapes and plastic, whatever we have ... hurry!" She ran down the stairs. She wasn't thinking anymore. She just did what Declan told her. "Oh ... God!" Declan muttered to himself. He rubbed his face with both hands. He was sure it was Roman when he first saw the dark images on the CCTV monitor. He checked the pockets of the dead man in front of him. He took everything he could find from the corpse. Gil was dead. Blood was still leaking out of his wounded head through the soaked cap. Declan would've seen a clearer image through the monitor if he hadn't worn that cap. Or not. His
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Seventy-Three: The Scene
She was in a haze. Everything was blurry. It was as if her mind was filled with fog, and tears were filling up her eyes. Declan was talking. He held her by the side of her arms. She remembered screaming, and Declan put his hand over her mouth. This was not really happening. The next thing she heard from Declan was, as the fog was getting clear, "We can do this ... you and me ... we'll clean this up, get rid of the body, and no one will know." He nodded profusely as if to get her to agree with him. "I did this for us ... don't you see? He gave me no choice ... I love you, Olivia, this is the only way we can be together peacefully ... he won't leave us alone ... he'll never leave us alone." She pushed his hand off her mouth, "You're crazy ... you'll never get away with this." Her breaths were heavy from the immense pressure of his crime. "You killed him." "You did too ... you think you'll be free of this? I didn't kill him ... we did." The realization o
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Seventy-Two: Murderer
She woke up in a daze by a beeping sound from the computer. It took a few seconds for her to recall that they had fallen asleep on the floor of his study. Declan was sitting in front of his computer. The look on his face sobered her up. "What's wrong?" she asked as she gathered and put on her clothes. "Sshh ..." he put his index finger to his lips. His eyes were nailed to the monitor as he clicked away with his mouse. "Someone's in the house." Her heart fell to her stomach. "What? What do you mean?" she whispered and hurried to dress. Declan stood abruptly from his chair and switched the light off. She looked at the computer monitor to see what he had been looking at from the CCTV, but it was turned off. "He's upstairs ... he's going to the bedroom," he walked back to his desk and got a key from the drawer. She was numbed by fear. "What are you doing?" He didn't reply, but she immediately knew he was going for his
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Seventy-One: Husband And Wife
He said it. It was done. He had severed the tie that bound him with his entire life, his family. But Livy was his family. She had been for more than 15 years. She was the family he chose for himself. He had done more to keep his relationship with Olivia than anything he'd ever done to be a Hunt. Was he an idiot, like his mom said? Maybe. Whatever Olivia did with Roman made him even hungrier to win her back. It was his nature. It was how he strived to be the best in business. It surprised him. The relief he felt after telling his mom. He was free now. No more judgment of who he chose to be his wife, why they had not yet had a child, or what he decided to do with his marriage. His life was finally his own. He couldn't believe he waited that long to do the one thing that could've saved his marriage from the start. He walked into the silence of their home. It was the only thing that mattered from then on. To build back what had collapsed beneath their feet. The woman he
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Seventy: Mother And Son
Declan sat in the dining room, waiting for his mom to enter in her fashionably late manner. This time she brought some files with her. Her sumptuous smile subsided when she saw her favorite son looking scruffy and worn out, as if he hadn't showered or eaten in days. "You look like you just crawled out of a cave ... what happened?" she sneered. He stood up and kissed his mother's cheek, "You look lovely as always, Mom. How are you?" "I'm as well as I can be," she sat on the chair next to him and put the files on the table. She turned to him with a concerned look on her face. She touched his arm, "Is there something wrong with your business?" "No ... business is good," he said. She raised a brow and turned away, "It's your home then ... where is your pageant wife, anyway?" Mimi started to look through the papers in front of her. He rubbed his temple. He was not in the mood for his mother's cynical remarks. "Why am I here, Mom?"
