~Laurel~My body shuddered as I threw my head back and screamed, the pleasure hitting me on a whole new different level.I sighed when he came back on top of me. "Keep it down, Laurel. I don't want someone to think I'm doing something unpleasant to you.""You're forgetting our room is soundproof." I kissed him long and hard, tasting myself on his lips. "God, I've missed this."He moved off me and shifted to his side of the bed, pulling me close to his body. "Yet you're so good at pretending.""I was once an actress, have you forgotten? Perhaps, I should give Hollywood a call and tell them I'm returning to the game."His grip around my waist tightened. "You wouldn't dare.''"Kurt, I don't really see the reason why you stopped me from acting. You know, it's something I enjoy doing the most and---''"You don't need the money. Tell me, how much do you need? I'll pay you ten times the amount they'll pay you for twenty seasons."I slapped his arm. "Asshole. I don't need your money. I was ne

~Laurel~"Something wrong with the food, Ryder?""No ma'am, it's just...I don't eat fish, I'm not a vegetarian though just that I never liked fish and um ..stuff."He was being cute, I could tell. "Waiter!" A man in a bow and tie scurried to our side in no less than three seconds."Yes ma'am?""Take his order, please." I pointed to Ryder who was fidgeting with his spoon. "And I'm sorry to have ordered for you, Ryder.""It's no problem, really, ma'am. Infact, I feel honoured." He said with a smile.Genevieve who was seated beside him, opposite me on the other hand, couldn't stop talking to me with her eyes. It almost felt as if she was silently begging me not to throw questions at him. Poor guy. I wasn't the type to just sit and not chat.I waited until the waiter came up with his order before I turned to my steak. "So, Ryder, what's your full name?" I stabbed at the crab in front of me and took a bite."Um, ma'am, it's Ryder Junior Pierce.""Pierce? Isn't that like, James Pierce? The

~Laurel~"Hey.""Hey."I slipped into bed beside him. "Who are you talking to?""A business partner. You okay?""Yeah. I'm just..um.. tired, I guess.""Okay." He slipped off the bed and stood up. "I'll just um.. quickly finish some stuffs in my office. Just notify me if you need anything."I got off the bed to stand in front of him. "I do need something now.""What is it?""You."He stared into my eyes for what looked like seconds before clearing his throat. "Laurel, look, I...""You don't want me anymore? Why? Kurt, you've been avoiding me for days now. You don't talk to me, you come in late and go out early in the morning, you don't even want to have sex with me anymore....""Laurel, listen...""No! I don't want to listen! It's always been about work. You have a meeting, something urgent crept up, you're late for work and so on! You don't have time for me anymore! Or even our family! Is there something going on that I'm unaware of?""What do you mean by that?""Are you having an aff

~Laurel~"Have you ever considered looking in a mirror?" A voice startled me, breaking me out of my thoughts. I looked up and saw Genevieve walking toward me with a champagne bottle and two glasses in the other. It was Saturday. A day I was supposed to spend indoors with my family or maybe, go out shopping with them or rather, get a tan or go sightseeing as a family but today, I didn't see a reason to. For starters, Kurt was unreachable and me, God, I was too weak and frustrated to even move, so I just decided to come out and spend time on the balcony, near the pool."Do you perhaps have one?" I asked teasingly as soon as she was in front of me. "I could borrow yours.""You look like shit." She dropped the bottle and the glasses on the table in front of me and took her seat."Thought no one noticed." I muttered more to myself than me."Well, I did." She popped the bottle open and filled a glass to the brim with the content from the bottle. "Thought you might need this to cool your sp

~Laurel~I laid on our bed and pretended to be asleep when Kurt arrived from work at exactly one am the next morning. Something in me relaxed when he pressed a kiss to my shoulder and slipped under the covers beside me. About forty minutes later when I was sure he had fallen asleep, I picked his phone from the bedside table and started scrolling through his texts. A text came in from a woman named Melissa and I opened it, only to reveal numerous messages from her and also from Kurt. Kurt whom I knew hardly texts.There were so many messages to read from the time they started chatting, about three weeks ago, till now. The one that had tears clouding my vision was the text that came in just now which reads, ''I had a good time. Thank you for making each and every of my day special. Heart you big time. Tomorrow at that same diner. Don't come late, got it?"I tried so hard. So hard to hold back my tears but I failed. So this is what Kurt's been up to. Every single time he kept ignoring m

~Laurel~I opened my eyes to an unknown environment, with people claded in white garments and nose masks, roaming about and hovering over me. "Where the hell am I?""Laurel! Oh my goodness, thank God, you're awake!" Mom scurried to my side even before I could make a move to get up. "Are you okay? How are you feeling?"There were people in the room. People I was very well familiar with. Like Kaitlyn for example, Wesley, Liam, Mirabelle, Genevieve and Lavinia."What happened?""You don't remember? Laurel, how could you? You know, you're all I have left, how could you do this to me? You were planning on killing yourself? Answer me, Laurel.""Aunt, I'll take it from here." Wesley nodded and Mira held her as they walked out."We'll be out if you need us." Lavinia said as they walked out, leaving me alone with Wesley."What's going on, Laurel?" Wesley asked me as soon as they exited the door. "Tell me it's not true. Tell me what they're saying in the news right now is not true. Tell me it's

~Laurel~A week laterI was seated on my balcony, gazing into the beauty of the night when Genevieve appeared from the entrance area. "How are you holding up?''I wrapped my arms around myself and smiled at her. "I'll survive.""I could call him if you want.''"No, don't." I smiled again. "I'll be fine, I promise.""Dinner?""Did Mirabelle by any chance call back?"Her face fell, and I immediately knew what she was about to say. "No, she didn't. It seems she's forgotten about you. So easily.""Mira would never forget about me, Genevieve, she's just angry.""Well, then, she isn't worthy enough if she can't support your decision. You're only taking a break to think. It's not as if you're going away forever.""I..hurt her. It isn't something to just get past like that. With time, she'd come to understand that not every marital problems can be solved together."She smiled. "I'm glad you've finally realized."~Mirabelle's POV."Mira, what are you still doing there?"I picked up the files

~~Laurel~"Babe, how about this one?" Lavinia asked me as I wheeled the trolley basket to her side."Ew. Lavinia, that's a sex toy. You know I could never use that on myself." I said, browsing through the next shelf."That was before! When you had several men falling at your feet. But now, look at you...""What's wrong with me?""You look pathetically drained. And you look tired too, have you been eating well lately?""With Mom around? I've been literally fed with a spoon to my mouth.""Good thing you have a mother who pushes you as much as she does. So what did she say about you living separately from Kurt?"I sighed. "She hasn't said anything. Still waiting for me to have my time before she can attack. I don't know but I think mom won't allow it. Kurt is like a biological son to her, she certainly won't allow his heart to get broken.""So you're attending his party next week? You know the launching of a new name for KCorps?""I'm still thinking about it. I may or may not want to se

~Laurel~After two hours of mingling with the public and avoiding Kurt, I decided to use the bathroom and ease the pressing feeling I was having.I was retouching my make-up when I felt someone behind me and I as looked up into the mirror, I saw Kurt burning gazes into my back.I didn't want to be alone with him, I thought. I knew if remained here or worse even talk to him, something would definitely happen. And I would give him the chance of making me submit to him again. I wasn't prepared yet. Not after what he did to me. And so I decided to make a run for it. But just before I could get to the door, I was grabbed and slammed against the wall."Is what is left of our relationship, Laurel? You ignoring my calls and avoiding me at every turn?"He was so close that I could feel every inch of him, tormenting me slowly to a point of losing it. "I am..I am not avoiding you. I just don't want to get into any entanglement with you. Why? Has there been no one to warm up your sheets lately?"

~Laurel~"That's not true!" Genevieve shouted."Oh yes, it's true. Melissa, tell them what you told me." Mira gave way for the woman to come to the front and she did."Genevieve here, found out something about me. A sextape. She then threatened to upload it but I pleaded with her. And then she told me she wanted to get her revenge on you.""Melissa, shut your big mouth!" Genevieve cut in."Who? Me?" I asked her and she nodded."And so she told me to go back to Kurt and seduce him. I told her I couldn't because the Kurt I've always known wasn't easily seduced. But she forced me, threatened to release the tape if I didn't. And that's why I came back. Kurt, my husband isn't dead, I'm sorry if I lied to you. But there was nothing I could do.""Why didn't you tell me, Melissa? You chose to fear her, over me? And then what? Ruin my relationship with my wife?""That was what she told me.""And those texts, mom. Dad didn't send them," Mirabelle explained. "Gen did. I don't know how she did it
