[ Rain ]The next day I wake up at my usual time but the scene I find myself in, makes me blush hard. Our naked body are still entangled together and his face is buried in my chest, his hot breath falling on my breasts.I still can't believe what happened a few hours ago. I lost my virginity to my husband whom I love madly and blindly. I want to stare at his handsome sleeping face forever but the pressure in my bladder rebels against my stupid heart and it's fantasies.I cautiously try to remove him but his grip tightens even more and a groan escapes from him. He didn't like the disturbance and I don't want to wake him up.After a few more attempts, I finally manage to slip out of the bed and run to the bathroom to get freshen up before he wakes up. I don't know how am I going to face him. Whatever we did last night, happened in the heat of the passion but daylight brings reality.Closing the door behind me, I stare at my reflection in the mirror. Red and blue marks cover all over my
[ Third person's pov ]It was like living a dream for Rain who gave up on all the hopes of gaining her husband's affection but the one night of weakness or according to her, a miraculous night, their life changed.He gave her all the rights of a wife on his own will and also accepted her in his life as a friend or a companion, that's what she thought."Rain, are you even listening to me?" Nicholas snapped his hand in front of her eyes who has been staring at the masterpieces of artworks."Oh, sorry, I was lost in the beauty of these artworks, that's all." She replies coming out of her trance.His frown doesn't disappear."You keep zoning out since the morning, what's the matter, Rain?" He asks her with concern. He has been observing her since the morning.She smiles sadly on her fate. Only if he can look into her heart and find the immense love preserved for him."I am locking every single moment in my memory. I don't know when next we'd have the chance to live our lives without beari
[ Nicholas ]Marrying Rain at the last minute when my love, Roselie ran away for reasons unknown to me, I didn't know it would be blunderous mistake or a boon for me.Rain, my last minute wife proved herself quite opposite of what I perceived about her. She's a selfless soul who only cares about others. She cares about me despite of my constant coldness towards her, she never for once complained or demanded anything from me.These few days I spent with her, knowing her closely, sharing fun moments with her and living the true jest of life, it's beyond my description.Last night, we crossed the last and most unpredictable barrier between us. We consumated our marriage. She willingly gave herself to me like I am her diety and she's ready to serve me with all the love and passion she has.Her soft moans and trembling body when I worshipped her innocent beauty, they keep playing in my mind and I'm desperate to do it again and again with her.She has managed to crack the wall I built aroun
[ Nicholas ]Her lips move in a sync with mine, she knows how she can divulge my feelings and how I like a faminine pair of lips waltzing with mine. My hands involuntarily circle around her waist, in that moment I think I'm living in a euphoric world. I taste saltiness of her tears in her mouth and somewhere, I feel her pain coursing it's way through the blocked channels of my heart.She wraps her hands around my neck and pulls me impossibly closer. She bites on my lip to enter inside my mouth and in that moment, I snap out of my trance.I push her away and wipe my lips.Hurt flashes on her face."I..I...am sorry."She stutters and looks guilty,"Please forgive me. I don't know what have gotten into me. It..just..I couldn't control my feelings for you." She looks down in shame."I'm a married man now, Roselie. So, remember the next time you dare doing something like this." I say curtly but why am I blaming her entirely? Wasn't I the one to enjoy it as much as she did?"Married?" She gas
[ Rain ]It has been two days since the night I found Nicholas reuniting with Roselie. The sight broke the last thread of my patience and hope for a successful marriage. The man who promised to be civil and honest with me, he broke it the next day he saw his beloved.I was devastated and lost when I boarded the plane back to home but instead of going to his mansion or my parents' house, I decided to stay with Candace for some days or until I figure out my next move.It pains me more to realise that never for once he tried to reach me even though I switched off my phone as soon as I landed in the hometown. He has many sources to trace me but he didn't which clearly displays his intentions.Since his true love has returned, he doesn't want me in his life anymore."Rain, you have to let it out, it's useless and more painful for you to bury your pain and put a lid on it. Share it with me or someone else." I hear Candace saying.I don't realise when my eyes became watery. I quickly wipe my
[ Rain ]"Xavier?"I whispered under my breath."I thought aliens abducted you from the earth, dear friend." He walked inside the house, his eyes scanned me from top to bottom and from where I can observe him, a wave of relief washed over his expressions as he sees me."Hey," I pass him a weak smile yet avoid looking at him.He steps closer to me and halts just a few inches away, his strong cologne lingers around me."You have no idea how worried I was for you when you didn't respond to my texts and calls, Rain. You had your own differences with Nick but this isn't the wiser way to deal with the situation." He says and every word sinks my heart more with guilt.I indeed acted impulsively."I am sorry, Xavier. Please forgive me for my rudeness but I wasn't in a state to respond to anyone." My voice threatens to crack but I hold myself."I'll bring more coffee." Candace excuses herself from there to give us privacy to talk about my current equation with Nicholas.I squirm under his inte
[ Nicholas ]Everyone's life is on normal track, my parents are busy handling the business in my due absence and Nicole is having a good time touring Greece, my friends have been caught up in their own lives.Except for me.Ever since Rain left me alone in the stormy night, without giving me a chance to explain everything. She left an uneasy void in my heart. I know she has been staying with her friend rather than going back to our house or her parents', she chose to be quiet about our turbulent marriage. Only she can do this and it drowns me more into self pity. I feel different, I don't know this feeling but it's not letting me live at peace like I've been since we went on our honeymoon. It's weird, I felt lighter with Rain but now a constant heaviness burdens my heart. I never contacted Rose since I took the earliest flight back to home nor she tried to contact me but I have to settle my scores with Samual. I got to know from my sources that he will be attending the bidding of th
[ Nicholas ]"Wha...what did...you say?" I can't blink my eyes as his words numb my senses."Xav, what are you saying?" Mason asks the same in a shocked voice.Xavier slouches down on the chair and rubs his temple, the creases on his forehead confirm his words but I need to hear from him once again."I met her today. She's not good, Nick." He raises his head to look at him and the worry swirling in his eyes conveys the same, it stings me to think that Rain is suffering for my infidelity."Why did you hide it from me, Nick?" His words are laced in hurt and accusation,"You met Roselie and kissed her? Were you drunk or you still have feelings for her?" He asks arching his brows.I lower my gaze, I can't look into his eyes. He's right, I too find myself at a crossroad from where I am unable to decide whether I want to save my marriage or give Rose another chance. After returning from Switzerland, I investigated about her claims and I actually found Samuel's dirty involvement in her sudden
