MONIQUE“You know what? Say whatever makes you sleep well at night okay? I am bigger than you and will always be and you will always be that girl that wants everything I want but won’t and can’t get it, that’s just simple as it is,” I stated firmly. I sighed deeply and I smiled at her. “You just wasted my time and I regret saying a word to you. Since you already said what it is that you have to say then you might as well let me go, alright?”I turned to leave but felt her arms around me. I frown at her, expecting her to let go but she doesn’t let go.“I hate you so much,” she said with so much venom laced in her tone and although it was not surprising, it felt annoying hearing her say it to me. “And why do you think I’m finished? You can’t leave unless I want you to so don’t make me angry,” she said boldly and I mentally scoffed in disbelief before taking her hand off me.“You don’t get to tell me what to do. I said I’m done speaking to you and that’s it. I’m done and that’s it, und
MONIQUE“Exactly. She won’t succeed because I already know her plans and what she does. So this time around I would be able to get rid of her. I would have all the evidence that I want already to use and bring her down,” he said.“That’s where she loses it all. This is where her plans finally backfires,” I added.“But I do have a question tho. With all the wealth that she has acquired, what does she do with it and why isn’t it enough for her to stop?” I mean there must be something else making her do the same work without stopping. She has acquired a lot of money for her to finally start a new life but she refuses.“That’s another question I have in mind but the closer I get to her once my plans begin to work, the easier it will be for me to know a lot about her,” he replied. I sighed deeply. I took the glass of wine in his hand and took a sip.“I think I will call it a night and go to bed. I have a long day ahead,” I said getting up on my feet. “Alright. Goodnight. Get ready for t
Monique Gavin and I walked into the hall where the event had already commenced, and many people were already present at the party. Despite how many times I told myself that I wasn't going to get nervous, the second I took in my surroundings and realized that I was surrounded by rich and famous people, the nervousness that I tried to suppress sprouted out, and I unconsciously started to clench my fists while holding on to my dress. "Are you okay?" Gavin asked. "You look pretty pale right now," he pointed out, and I felt a little embarrassed by how obvious it was that I was nervous. "Don't mind me, Gavin. I'm just a little nervous right now," I responded, and he chuckled."It's only understandable that you're nervous, but I want you to know that today you're here as my wife, and as my wife, you're unstoppable and untouchable. There might be a few comments you might not like to hear, but ignore every disrespectful comment and keep in mind that you deserve to be here," he said, tryi
Third-person Pov Whitney clenched and unclenched her fists repeatedly as she walked out of the restroom and left Monique behind. She hated the fact that Monique had just looked down on her simply because she wasn't married to a better man, and it made her feel even more determined to snatch away Monique's happiness for a second time.As she made her way back to the party, she spotted Cole from a distance speaking to some man she didn't know, and the first thing she felt was a strong wave of nausea. She was so strangely irritated by the sight of him that she didn't want to be anywhere near him until she was able to calm herself down. Unfortunately for her, Cole also spotted her from afar and immediately gestured for her to join him. Wearing the fakest smile she could muster, she walked to his side, and while she maintained a false smile, she watched as Cole and the man he was with continued with their boring chatter. While they kept talking, she would take a look around the room
MONIQUE My heart pounded in my chest as I stood in front of the wedding hall. I was dressed in a fiery red jumpsuit, and I didn't need to be told that my appearance alone was enough to call for attention. Red lipstick adorned my lips, matching the intensity of my emotions, and my red-bottom shoes clicked confidently on the pavement as I steadied my breathing. I was prepared to walk into the wedding of my ex-husband and ex-best friend, determined to create chaos and make them pay for their betrayal. When I heard they'd be getting married today, everything in me burned with pure rage, and even though I knew I shouldn't be here since it'd hurt me more than it'd hurt them, I couldn't help myself. Clutching a small can of paint wrapped in an elegant red cloth, I concealed my true intentions from the security at the hall. I knew they'd stop to ask questions if I had walked in with an exposed can of paint, so I wrapped it in a fancy cloth that matched both the color of my jumpsuit and the
MONIQUEHe was tall, his dark hair slightly tousled, and his gray eyes held an intensity that was both unnerving and captivating. It was also quite obvious that he was wealthy, seeing how he was dressed and his aura alone. But his appearance and potential wealth weren't my concerns right now. My priority was figuring out if I was putting myself in danger by following him.I spoke up, my voice laced with skepticism. "Who are you? Why are you helping me?" I asked.The man sighed, his gaze meeting mine. "My name is Gavin Jones," he replied, his voice steady. He reached into his wallet and retrieved a card, holding it out to me. "Here," he says. "Take a look. I mean you no harm."I took the card from him, my eyes scanning the details. It confirmed his name as Gavin Romano, but it doesn't provide me with any further explanation. My mind raced, contemplating the risks of accepting a ride from him. Yet, considering the circumstances and the fact that he had already helped me, I decided to ta
MONIQUESilent moans escaped my lips from pleasure as Gavin thrust into me. As time went by, he quickened his pace and I moaned out loud from the immense pleasure.That kiss led to a full make-out scene and soon we were tearing each other clothes. I wasn't one to have random sex so I wasn't sure what gave me the courage. Maybe it was the alcohol or maybe the sexual tension I felt from Gavin's presence but either way, I loved it.The way he touched me made me shiver and when he started to thrust into me, I left planet Earth and into a world where I only saw the stars."Fuck!" I heard him groan as he thrust fast and hard into me.In no time, my legs began to shake from the pleasure I felt. "I'm coming.""I'm coming too," he replied, pounding deep into me, and in no time we came but he came on top of my stomach as he had no condom on. I tried to even my breath while Gavin walked away.He returned shortly with a wet towel and cleaned me up. I gave into darkness.I opened my eyelids from t
Chapter FOUR — The Birth of Monica Jones I stood in front of the mirror, the image of a bride adorned in white gazing back at me. The ivory silk cascaded around my form, alongside the lace detailing that accentuated the curves of my body. I couldn't deny the sheer beauty of the wedding dress, which hugged me snugly. It was a stark contrast to the dress I had worn on my ill-fated wedding day with that bastard Cole—a day that now felt like a distant, painful memory.Nervous energy coiled in me, with unease knotting my stomach as doubt crept into my mind. Was I really doing the right thing? Marrying a man I barely knew, all in the name of revenge? Could I really trust Gavin's words, a man whose real intentions were still a mystery to me?A heavy sigh escaped my lips as I examined my reflection, the uncertainty in my eyes staring back at me. The dress may have been exquisite, but the seriousness of my decision suddenly felt like a heavy burden on my shoulders. The thought of becoming a
