All Chapters of TRUTH OR DARE: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Damien shows me around the company.The offices are pristine, each of them equipped with a touchscreen computer and wireless charging pads. The cafeteria is cute, decorated with pink tables and chairs. The washrooms are spacious and spotlessly clean with huge mirrors in every stall. Damien makes a joke about washrooms being the perfect place to meet your partner and I just roll my eyes. It's not like he's my real partner. Lastly, Damien shows me to my little cute office where I'll be working for the next two years. There's a cute wooden desk in the middle and a little bookshelf with books and files. What I love about my little office is the scenic view of the city. I can't wait to stand over the window as I sip my coffee. Damien directs me on the paperwork I'll be working on today. It's not a lot of work. As we leave my office, I get a glimpse of Brandon and Wendy in his office. She's leaning over his desk, giggling and playing with his tie. They immediately stop when they see us pa

"That was..." I stutter. "Nothing.""Didn't look like nothing to me." Damien grits his teeth. "He had you nailed on the wall. Strangling the life out of you.""We just had a little... misunderstanding.""About what?""He was jealous!" I lie. "He was jealous that I was making out with his boss in my office.""And that justifies his violence and abuse?" He huffs. "He's your fùcking ex. He has no right being fùcking jealous!""Brandon has always been the jealous type.""It's about time someone teaches him how to control that jealousy, don't you think?""What do you mean?""You are my wife, Dani." He smirks. "You seriously don't think I would let anyone get away with attacking you, do you?""Whatever you're planning to do, please don't do it.""Why?""Because it will do more harm than good." I pause. "I just started working at the company. I don't have any friends. I'm sure everyone thinks I'm some lucky gold digger who duped you into marriage. I'm trying to earn a little respect from the

Brandon has been waiting and begging for a promotion for two whole years now.Almost everyone has been promoted here except him. I remember hating Damien for a long time for not promoting my boyfriend but now, it makes me want to kiss him. For a moment, I almost forget that he just finished my breakfast as I watched. A rush of adrenaline coarses through me as I sit across from him, watching him asking for something that I know he will never get. Damien will never ever promote him. Poor thing.Brandon scowls at me."Did you hear what I just said?""You want a promotion." I smile. "Don't you think you should be asking my husband for that. I wish I could help.""That's why I came to you." He grins. "Because you will help me get that promotion. And not just me. Even my girlfriend.""Oh." I chuckle. "You want me to help you and Wendy to get a promotion?""And pay rise.""Wonderful." I lean on the desk. "And how exactly should I go about that?""I'm sure it's not hard for a woman like you."

"Want some coffee and cookies?" I glance at Nate and nod slightly. He disappears to the kitchen and comes back with two cups of coffee and a plate of cookies. He tosses himself on the couch, a few feet away from me."That's Damien's ex." I sigh, reaching for the cup. "She wants him to be the best man at her wedding. Can you imagine?""If your husband has completely moved on, that shouldn't be a problem."That's the problem. My husband hasn't moved on. But Nate doesn't need to know that. He knows more than enough about my life. I still feel like I know nothing about his life.Silence stretches between us, the only noise being the chewing of crunchy cookies.We are actively avoiding talking about yesterday. He's drinking his coffee quietly, avoiding my eyes. I'm silently sipping the coffee, scared to start the conversation. Why is there so much tension between us today?I clear my throat and start."Nate." He looks at me. "You are not going to like what I'm about to say but I'm going t

DAMIENLife is funny.I was so terrified of attending this wedding. So terrified that I threw myself into a fake marriage. I was so convinced that watching another man slipping a ring into Vanessa's finger would be the death of me. But here I am. Standing behind her. Being her best man. I didn't even know it was possible for a bride to have a best man. I thought they have a best maid. But Vanessa begged me because I'm her best friend. And ofcourse, my wife dragged me here.I hate Dani for dragging me here but I'm glad I came. Seeing Vanessa marrying another man is the wakeup call I needed. I have to let go of Vanessa. She belongs to another man now. I find Leo Giovanni a little weird. Ofcourse I did a little research on him with the help of Instagram. He's obsessed with himself. He paints his nails. He's got a nose piercing. He never takes off his earrings. He's got nice tattoos on both his arms. He loves posting thirst traps for his thirsty fans. He's thirty but acts like a teenager
