All Chapters of HIS SECRET WIFE: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

The clutter of cutlery on plates was all that echoed. Tension suffocated me to the neck. I sat next to Bueala, my father sitting at the head. To say the past twenty-four hours had been awful was an understatement. The only relief was Damon being nowhere to be seen. Storm called three more times during the day and I ignored all of them. No one talked. Emily sat to dad’s right, eating away. The food turned bland in my mouth. I was far from hungry and I wanted to get back to my home where I could curl myself in my bed and wallow away. After long minutes of excruciating silence, everyone was done eating. Were their dinners that painful to bear through or was it because of my presence?“Brandy. Join me in my office.” My father finally spoke since he arrived, acknowledging me. I had begun thinking he was pretending I wasn't there. “Yes sir.” I replied, taking a sip of water and pushing off my seat. None said anything else. I followed after my father. During our lunch Anna had conti

I ran out of the elevator and through the passage. Anything the guards said to me went unheard. I unlocked the door and ran to the bathroom where I emptied everything I ate that morning. My hands grabbed on the seat as I poured vomit out while sobbing. The picture kept coming to my mind and I threw up even more with burning tears flowing down my cheeks. I had never felt so violated in my life. Maggots crawled up my skin and at one point I couldn't help stretching.A hand came at my hair, pulling my head back. “Get yourself together.” I shook Damon’s hold away, pushing him but he gripped my head even tighter. “Clean yourself and get a hold of yoursel

“What do you want?” I sighed. It had been a long day. It felt like years ago when I had been in the hospital. Worse thing, I had no recollection of what happened after I came back to the office. “Chinese.” Storm said nothing back and I just sat beside him. I realized there were a few inches between us and ate those few inches up until I was glued to his side. “I know a place downtown sir, are you okay with me making the reservation? It’s friendly.” Amar suddenly said with my eyes moving to him. Storm nodded his head and Amar didn’t waste time calling for a secluded table. 

We were going to an island! A private island all to ourselves! We could hardly work as we planned in our group chat. After work my friends would pick me up and we would go shopping in preparation for our trip and the next morning I had asked and they had come to pick me up again. Of course, a couple of miles from the house. It finally looked like there was light at the end of the tunnel. Not seeing Damon for two days made me feel as if I could get through this. The worry, the stress all took a back seat as I worked and daydreamed about our trip in my free time. My head snapped straight to the time when my phone pinged. Five right on the dot. I grinned, picking my phone. Sandra: Come down, we parked in the street. Brandy: Coming I quickly packed my bag, looking forward to a night in. I would try as hard as I could to not work but maybe catch a movie, cuddling on Storm’s side of the bed. Guilt slid its ugly head as I thought of him. I hadn’t told him about the trip. I woul

Brandy: We are going to that club tonight. I danced around the room despite the pain in my center. The bottle I had passed out drinking was still in hand, half way through. Music blurred through the speakers, as loud as it could get, nearly bleeding my ears. I stumbled about, bending over which turned to be a bad idea. Vomit rose up to my chest from the pain that shot through. But still, I slipped my feet into the sneakers while I was still naked. Another song played and I screamed. Only the scream brought tears forward. They ran down my face as I screamed even harder then I stopped. I chugged the whisky back and stumbled forward.“I am going to party. Whoooo!”I turned from the buzz of my phone. I stared at the screen. It was ten at night and my friends were already queuing outside the club. Oohh shit. I rushed to take my bag then placed the alcohol on the table before swiping a knife and slipped it in my bag. Then I recalled my nakedness so I ran back to the closet to pull on a
