DanaI know I hurt Jeremy with my words, but he also hurt me. For once in my life, I had to be selfish and think only of myself. It wasn’t being selfish, but I don’t know if Jeremy would see it that way. He surely didn’t like that I asked Demian to take me to my mother’s house, but I didn’t care either.Demian was probably enjoying this, but I noticed he was confused. Jeremy watched us leave but didn’t stay silent.“What are you doing?” he asked, stopping me.But I didn’t stop. My feet walked firmly toward Demian’s car. Demian wrapped his arm around my shoulders to protect and care for me, but Jeremy wouldn’t allow it. He ran toward us and stood in front to block our way.“Dana, what are you doing?” Jeremy seemed not to understand.It wasn’t hard to comprehend. Jeremy knew what he had done.“I’m angry with you, don’t you understand?”“I think Dana has been clear with you, Jeremy. Dana needs to rest and eat. She hasn’t eaten well for days. You can talk later, Jeremy,” Demian agreed, bu
DanaI talked about divorce out of anger. I think it was my way of keeping myself safe from Jeremy, but also of punishing him. I needed to think carefully about my decision, but I felt almost sure about it.“Yes. I meant it, Demian,” I looked away.I didn’t like my ex-husband knowing intimate details about my relationship, but I didn’t mind throwing the issue in Jeremy’s face while Demian was present.“Are you happy that my marriage with Jeremy didn’t last?” I raised my eyebrows. I attacked him, and it wasn’t his fault.Demian looked surprised but understood.“I’m not attacking you, Dana. And although you might think I want to see you suffer, that’s not true. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have cared that you were kidnapped. I don’t know if you know this, but I...” Demian stopped. Whenever he had something important to tell me, he stayed silent.“You what?”“These past three days, I’ve felt like I was dying inside from not having you near me, Dana. You have no idea what the hell I went through
DemianWhen I heard Dana's words about the divorce, I was stunned. I saw Jeremy's heart breaking right in front of me. He was bewildered, but I don't think Dana meant it seriously. Dana went through three days of trauma. She had never experienced a kidnapping, and her ability to fight had diminished.Dana knew why she was kidnapped. I also wanted to kill Jeremy because Dana was kidnapped because of him. But I also recognize that he didn’t do it on purpose. I've seen him suffer these days. I've seen him cry in secret out of fear of losing Dana. I know Dana knew this deep down, but she painted him as the villain.It suited me if they got divorced because I didn’t like seeing them together. I felt something for Dana. I realized it recently, and part of me wanted to reclaim what we once had. But I wasn’t going to do it at Dana's expense. When she asked me what she should do, I told her to think twice. It went against my desires, but I didn’t want to fail Dana. I didn’t want to manipulate
DanaWhat kind of madness was I committing? Why did everything with him feel so difficult?My body and mouth acted on their own, ignoring the orders from my brain. I had never felt so lost in my life. I never thought I would lose control like this. I'm not going to pretend I'm a saint because Demian and I have kissed recently, and I went along with it. But this time was different. I was scared of myself because I didn't know to what extent I would let Demian touch me that night.Emotions and passion threatened to control me. In fact, they were already ahead. I wanted to put up a fight, but the damn game was so seductive and captivating. Demian barely had to make a move to drive me crazy. A light touch and he set my skin on fire like no one else. Not even Jeremy had managed that. Demian had something special about him. Everything was different when it came to Demian.Demian approached my lips. I felt the divine and tempting brush. I felt myself falling before tasting his mouth. I saw m
DanaJeremy narrowed his eyes upon seeing us in bed. We weren't doing anything wrong, as Demian was on one side and I was on the other. We weren't exactly together. But I could see the disgust on Jeremy's face. I noticed the indecision in his eyes, as he didn't know what to say to me. I could see the many thoughts passing through his mind. For a second, I felt bad. I didn't want him to realize what had happened.However, Jeremy and I were fighting, and today he wasn't my favorite person. I didn't have the energy to explain myself. Not after what had happened to me.Demian got up from the bed when Jeremy approached, indignant.“Now I understand everything... Do you want to divorce me to be with him? For God's sake, Dana!”My mother stepped into the room.“You shouldn't be here. Dana doesn't want to see you,” Demian reminded Jeremy. He used a calm but serious tone.“Divorce? Are you planning to divorce, Dana?” my mother asked. She had no idea because I hadn't told her, but I think she ha
DemianLosing control. That's what happens to me when Dana is near. I feel like I keep making mistakes and I don't know how to stop. My conscience weighs on me, and the ghosts of the past haunt me. Kissing Dana was a weakness I couldn’t resist. When her mother interrupted us, I knew we had made a mistake, and something told me that Dana would regret it too.In reality, I didn’t regret kissing Dana. I didn’t even regret almost making love to her. But Dana and I had marriages that deserved respect. I didn’t want to be unfaithful. I didn’t want to do that to Rachel, who was waiting for me at home without a clue that this was happening.Jeremy burst into Dana's room. I almost threw him out.Dana mentioned that she would think about her decision. Meaning, she assured Jeremy that she would consider not divorcing him. Why the hell? Why was she backing down?I didn't want Dana to suffer, but I also didn't want her to be with Jeremy. Their marriage made my skin crawl. I couldn't stand seeing
DanaIt was awkward when Demian came back to the room, and we looked at each other. After we kissed, I understood that I had made a mistake, letting myself be carried away by the desires of my heart and skin. Jeremy's words echoed in my mind. Anger didn't stop my conscience from turning its back on Jeremy. Demian had to leave right now. It wasn't a good idea for us to be together.I felt weak around Demian. I loved having him by my side, taking care of me, but this didn't feel right. We weren't acting correctly, and I knew Demian knew it too. Even though Demian said he cared about me, he loved another woman. I was just the mother of his children, nothing more. He had made that clear in the past. I think it's time to go back to our normal lives.Demian sat on the bed, but I noticed he was uncomfortable. He looked at me. He knew I had something on my mind. I nervously played with my fingers."Are you okay?" he asked.My mother peeked into my room again. I didn't know if she was trying t
DanaA man approached Demian and Rachel on the road. I noticed it was my former chauffeur. He took Rachel by the arm to help her walk. Rachel said goodbye to Demian with another kiss and left with my chauffeur. I mean, my ex-chauffeur. Demian stayed in place, watching Rachel leave.He put his hands in his pockets and waited for Rachel to get into the car. I wondered why Demian wasn't going with her, but I was glad to have him near me, as my fury was overwhelming. The car started, and I watched Demian closely. It didn't take long for him to notice my presence, and his body tensed. I saw he was uncomfortable. Demian didn't even move an inch to speak to me or give me an explanation.I took the initiative and walked toward him with furrowed brows and crossed arms. I was fuming. Demian noticed."What are you doing here?" Demian asked me.He looked at me strangely. He seemed annoyed with me and wanted to leave immediately."Don’t you realize how much you’re hurting me? Don’t you ever get ti
