Waking up this morning and I felt like hell. Worse still I was in the bathtub and naked. There was a cigarette butt to the side and then I realized I had fallen asleep in there, how relaxing it had felt but now I probably would be dealing with an issue of the greatest hangover yet to be heard in the world. My body hurt and it felt like I had gotten into a fight with bears. I realized the water had gone cold and goosebumps had risen all over my skin but that bothered me less. Quickly I had a quick shower as I had plans for the day.
The bedroom was empty and if Emilio had returned, I generally would say I have absolutely no idea of the sorts. It was hard putting on my makeup as I sought to make my face less puffy and more attractive. In the end, the parts which I could not hide with makeup which were basically my eyes, I hid under my large dark shades. It was the only way around this entire situation. At least I looked elegant enough as I moved out of the bedroom.
"He didn't return now did he Martha?" I asked the older maid
"No ma'am but he called and asked to give you this." she said, handing me pills.
Hangover pills. How very thoughtful. I took it from her after slight hesitation as I realized that as much as I did not want anything from him any further, I needed those pills. The dosage was two and I popped them into my mouth as I took the glass of water she had in handy.
"Thank you Martha." I said as I started walking away
"What about breakfast?" she asked me
"Lots of engagements today. I shall eat out." I said.
Driving out of the house, I was glad I beat the overwhelming feeling of crying as the thoughts that Emilio had slept out which was probably with his new found mistress hurt me badly. He could not even come home to check on me yet he had drugs sent over to me. A lot was on my mind that morning but then I seriously had no idea where I would be going exactly when my phone rang. It was Dominic and I knew he had good news.
"Hello Dom." I called him
"Samantha the papers are ready." he said
"Thank you." I said but just before I hung up, he spoke to me
"Would it be happening this time for real Sam?" he asked
"I shall be in your office in about an hour, Dom. Have the papers ready for me." I said as he needed to make certain everything was ready.
Was I really going to leave Emilio this time? I had absolutely no idea whatsoever but all I knew was I had things to do. Lots of T's to cross this time. As soon as the sign signaled that we could go, I drove straight to the next turn leading to his office.
Perhaps you might not understand the relationship between Dominic and I but it was a secret I held dear. Before he had become my husband's lawyer, there had been a history between us both which Emilio would probably never know about. During a time after my engagement to Emilio, he had suddenly gone a little bit off from me and I was losing it. We said nothing in months to each other and then I believed that he must have decided to have nothing more to do with me. Hence with that uncertainty, I had left off his ring and went out to catch myself some fun with my best friend Zara. It was more or less her idea to get things off my mind and it was there that I saw him.
Dominic really stood out in the crowd especially with all his features. However he had his eyes on just one girl for the night and she was me. If I was being true myself I too had the hots for him and kept passing out signals until we were all over our head crazy about each other. Our craziness went on through the night until at last it led us to his apartment where he showed me all the things my estranged fiance could not show me. The love making was passionate and if I could be true to myself, it was the best ever. I could not get that night off my mind all these years but eventually the next morning I had to leave and never saw the hot stranger again.
A week later, Emilio returned and guilt had never walked this earth surface as it did with me. However I consoled myself with the fact that we were off and giving each other space at the time when it happened so I buried it deep in the archives of my brain. Little did I know that my hot stranger was my dear husband's lawyer but he was such a perfect gentleman not to mention it. However my marriage started falling apart when my husband started his sexual escapades and that was how I found myself in Dominic's office three months ago.
"You know I never forgot you?" he had said
"Please let's not talk about it." I said. I had been hoping to avoid it all along and since through the years he never mentioned it, I believed he must have forgotten or had moved on with his life. I expected that maybe for some good reason, he had seen it as a night of passion with a random girl.
But clearly I was wrong.
Dominic had come across to sit on the desk right in front of me that I caught his scent up close.
"You know you miss us too." he said
"There is no us Dom. It was just a one night stand." I reminded him
"But there would be. All you need to do is divorce Emilio. I can assure you that it would be a smooth one." he said as he brought his finger down on my lap, tracing a line through the open slit that sent jitters down my spine once again.
"I... I... I need to go." I had said rising up abruptly and he smiled. He knew now I still would feel weakened by his touch.
When I had tried to leave, Dominic had suddenly drawn me back into his arms as he rose up and kissed me. I did not resist. Instead I had responded and hungrily let him lead me to the wall as we kissed passionately. He moved a lot from my lips to my neck sending signals down to my very core. I knew it would not stop if I let it on. I recalled the moment when he would have turned me to face the wall that I was about to get guilty of the same thing I was accusing my husband of. Hence I resisted and told him I could not before leaving his office in a frenzy.
But the memories of that moment in his office had probably awakened within me emotions I used to tell myself should have been dead.
Right now as I drove myself to his office, I kept reminding myself that I was only going there to pick up those papers and nothing more.
"You did not give me an answer Samantha." he said as I took the papers standing in front of his desk.He sat down there in all his magnificence. He was such a handsome man although not handsome enough to beat Emilio's undisputable looks. These men were gorgeous in all ramifications but slight opposites to each other. I looked through the papers and then returned them to the envelope."Thanks Dominic. I shall keep in touch." I said to him as I turned away."Dominic? It's been ages since you called me that way Sam. Would you answer my question now?" he asked behind me"What question?" I asked as I turned to look at him again. He was standing now with both hands in his pocket."Would you be divorcing him this time?" he asked me again"I am a married woman, Dominic." I said with emphasis on his name"Yes, married but transitioning through divorce. I just need to know Sam. Give me anything, a sign. Just anything at all to know that I still have a chance with you." he said gesturing with hi
I just got home and at that moment the maid came to me looking really worried. It was quite late and I had spent a lot of time out there with Mara. We stopped for a drink or two which was not just social stuff. Apparently Zara had this really excellent make-up artist friend of hers that had to meet them at the bar. The feminine man had walked in with his glitters and shimmers and had greeted them. It was during the course of their drink that he had checked out her face and affirmed that it was something he could do. I was excited at the news, especially when he said I would still look pretty and even much younger. Besides I had my body on the go for me as I always made certain that it was in shape. We decided to spend a lot of time with each other before I decided to call it a night. Trust me it was a lot late. So when Martha came to ask if I was alright, I told her not to worry and started out for the house."Ma'am the key?" the potter asked.I looked at the key in my hand and then r
I woke up that morning to the argument going on in the sitting room. I could hear Emilio and someone else talking. I strained my ears and listened. "Dude I just need to see that she is okay." the other person was saying.It was Dominic and I could not understand what he was doing there at this time. He should have stayed away and I started blaming myself for taking his call but knowing Dominic, he probably would have assumed something had happened had I refused to take his calls and come over anyways. There was no escaping his watchful gaze and I had known better. I should have gone out there but with how I was feeling, I just could not go out there."Go away Dominic. You have done enough already." Emilio was saying.Well I had to assume he was probably referring to the divorce papers and sighed. The man should stop getting ahead of himself. He should be thankful I went to our mutual lawyer. It could have been worse had I decided to go get a lawyer on the outside. He probably would n
We had to hurry up and get to the hotel that evening with Zara being the best friend in the entire world. I had told her the moment I saw her that he signed the papers and she gave me a really tight hug as she reassured me that everything would be okay. The screening would be happening the next day in the night as it would seem and I was out here this night to get myself in the mood. I spent the night with my best friend with all our moods at the top as we drank together. It was sometime in the later hours of the morning that Suarez had made it to the hotel room with his friends. He was smiling and sure looked his best as he entered."Voila senora, I will get you so beautiful in a short moment. This would be really fun." he said excitedly.It eventually turned out to be the most fun practice ever and I seemed to be enjoying every moment of it. This was something I should have been doing long ago and all things I have been missing. I realized how much I missed having another person do
I could hear the blood boiling in my ear as I heard him approaching. What on earth could he want then he did not move again."You dropped this." I heard him say and saw his hand come close to me. I did not even look at what he was holding when I answered him hastily."No, that's not mine." I said in a cracked tone. Without waiting for him to say anything more, I hurried out of the club. Blast him and whatever he might be thinking but at least I would not have to put up with him yelling instead at me for coming to the club and making a show of myself. I hurried quickly to the parking lot where the duo were already waiting for me. Zara was outside while Suarez remained in the car parked somewhere in the area. We made certain I was not being followed by strategy. I walked past her first while she looked on and got into the car with Suarez who drove away from the club to a spot. Zara had to go through the stress of walking away and coming to us where we were. That way even his CCTV would
It was Dominic and seriously at this point it was becoming irritating. I knew very well all his calls were personally for his own selfish gains but how I wished at this point he would see that there was no light for him at the end of this tunnel. Maybe in another lifetime that I could not think about. I watched the phone ring and then I saw a notification that had entered some hours ago on my phone. It was from the club and I had gotten the job. It was pretty funny that I had been selected among the three girls that would be dancing at the VIP area which apparently was my goal. That would suit my purpose for all my plans. My excitement knew no bounds and I could not wait to share it with Zara. The hours began crawling now that I needed the light across the sky. When I noticed the rising sun, I got out of bed immediately and then went to open both curtains and turned to face her."Voila!!!" I screamed.She was waking up and tried to go back to sleep but I already had ruined that. I sto
The lady quickly grabbed her jacket as she walked away from the sitting room. Once again I could not resist that urge to call her names."Shameless bitch." I said after her.For a brief moment I had actually thought that she would turn around and retaliate word for word but just then without pausing, she walked away. I was still looking after the door she walked through when I felt him near me. Instantly I melted to myself as I could not hold the desire. I bit my lower lip really tightly as I sought to comfort myself before I turned around and looked at him. I was really scared about what would be happening to me but then I knew within me that no matter what, I would have to turn. Hence breathing in, I turned around to face him. Unfortunately for me, Emilio was right there before me up too close that I caught his scent. I was staring directly at his chest and I fought the urge to reach over and hug his waist to plead with him to stop all the games but no, that would be me submitting t
It was nearly time to leave but suddenly I was beginning to feel really nervous. "Zara please tell me not to do this." I said to her"Too late girl. We are doing this. You got to go out there and show them all you got." she said to me"But..." I began.Suarez who had been packing up his stuff crossed over interrupting me."Not buts. Allow me." he said as he caught me by my shoulders and whirled me to stand in front of the mirror. "Listen beautiful you see this girl here, she is you and she certainly would dominate tonight. But first my darling, you got to let her shine alright?" he said to me.I started tearing up as I turned to face him. I felt really glad with what he said that I hugged him. He reminded me of my makeup and then I relaxed. A couple of moments later and then we headed to the club area. The duo dropped me off along the way and wished me luck as they returned to the hotel room clearly. I had my shades on and my bag as I took the back room into the club. I gave my name
