MY SECOND CHANCE HUSBAND 83
Kesha remained silent, her heart heavy with the weight of Damon's words. She knew all too well the depth of his resentment towards her sister, and she couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt for the role she had played in his schemes.What would it be like if Kesha was never there?Damon turned to her, his eyes flashing with an intensity that sent a shiver down her spine.

And this time, I won't let anyone stand in my way."As he spoke, Kesha felt a chill run down her spine, a sense of dread settling over her like a suffocating fog.

"If I give you a gift today, the chances of getting a badass gift on my birthday increase" she winks at me.Anastasia opens the back door she was leaning against and digs through her backpack. She takes a small gold box from her bag and hands it to me, then closes the car door.I open it carefully so as not to damage the pretty wrapping. I find a beautiful dark leather anklet with a silver pendant. The equipment is simple and meets the little girl inside me."Ana, thank you!" I hug her tight and give her a kiss on the cheek. The wind rattles our clothes once again as we walk away.After the hug, I look towards Aaron and see that, like me, he is watching me. I blow him an air kiss and get a sideways smile in response.Aaron is beautifully young.Sometimes I forget he's young, because he's always controlling and rarely really relaxes. But now, dressed in dark jeans and wearing aviator sunglasses while smirking, he looks like the perfect bad boy."Wedding days and you are still drooling

Finally, I choose a basic black bikini. Gail provided several options in the suitcase, but I intend to use the others in the coming days. I want to make the most of this beach and all the heat. I cover my bikini with just a beach cover-up so I do not feel naked and declare myself ready.We walked out of the house, barefoot. For a moment, I think that worries can't reach us here. We are so relaxed, joking, smiling."Did you bet on races when you were a kid?" I ask.I remember how I saw Dora interact with Aaron. She loves him very much. And that makes me think that his childhood was very happy.Remembering my mother-in-law even makes me miss her. She did not come to our wedding because, unfortunately, George Granger doesn't like me very much."No, I guess” he frowns."So here's your first time. Thanks!" With that said, I sprint towards the deck.Aaron hisses some epitaph before running after me, and this is the happiest moment of my life. Seeing him running over the scorching sand, wear

"I was thinking of a way to live like this. Forever" he murmurs. "No responsibilities, no schedules...""Just the two of us living the best life" I caress her warm skin with my hands. The well-defined chest, the strong arms. I run through your torso with affection and love; I want him to feel even better in my arms."Can we live like this?" Aaron asks.Well, there's no denying that it would be an enviable life. He would be a billionaire and his wife would spend a lot of money on the frivolities of a rich life."My priority is to be with you. Here, in Malibu, on the other side of the world. I just want to live the best life possible with you"**What destiny holds for us is a constant unknown. We make plans, but who knows if that shit will get done? We just hope the future isn't a bad bitch. And, well, he's been kind to me, at least for the last four days.We spent the week traveling and returned on Friday afternoon. We went to Los Angeles, where I met some of Aaron's family. Mia, a de

When I wake up from my induced sleep, I refuse to open my eyes. I feel Damon's body next to mine on the couch, but this is a reality I don't want to face.I don't want to have to ask what happened, and I don't want to look at the world as it is now.I miss my overcoat, I miss my shirt, and I feel my skirt lifted above my thighs. I really don't want to know what happened in the time between my last memory and now. I don't want to find out the shit I did.I remember feeling bad until a blackout took over my mind. I remember seeing things that were too fanciful to be true, but this is more like a dream. I can't say that I lived what I remember.However, the remnants of hope ingrained in my brain tell me to open my eyes when Damon stands up. His warm body is removed from mine, which is frankly a relief."what did you do to me?" I manage to whisper."oh, you're already awake"I open my eyes to contemplate my fear. Damon is shirtless, buttoning the top button of his pants. He has messy hair

A labeu can mean many things. In someone's life, for example, it can mean the complete devastation of dignity. And when you enter a police station, approach a counter and tell a kind girl that you want to file a complaint, you can say that this word is the perfect definition. Because it's not about a stupid guy making a woman a victim, it's about how people look at this woman.Poor thing. Poor thing. Worthy of pity.People judge women who are already humiliated, making them believe that the humiliation is vehement.I didn't think it would be easy but, damn, did it have to be so hard?
