Just Once

Three years of marriage brought nothing but a thorn to my heart. My child was critically ill and in need of treatment. My husband didn't care and even called me unfaithful. In my desperation, I sold my body and soul in exchange for the recovery of my child. His name was Benjamin. Dominating the underworld and influencing politics, he was like a poppy that impressed, captivated, broke, and disillusioned me. He said that different from the others who approached me only for sex, he wanted every part of me. He also said that I was his only one and that nothing in this world could compare with me. Then he told me that these were all lies. I told him that these were true to me.

Chapter 22

I groaned. "How do you even tell a kid that his parents are dead? That some wolves ripped them limb by li- AHH!" I shouted as the burning pain spread around my body.

It was stronger than before. The burning feeling increased around my whole body. Like when you get splashed with hot oil while cooking. Only, it was like oil was being splashed around inside of me. And I couldn't get away from it. I screamed in agony. I rolled into a fetus position and screamed. I closed my eyes to see the redhead again. Kissing Alex. I let out a miserable howl as the pain faded.

Panting, I opened my eyes to see Ryan, Shawn, Jordyn, and Isaac watching me. They all had concerned looks on their faces, except Shawn.

He was pissed. "Alex," Shawn growled. I nodded. "He left just so he could whore around with that redhead! How dare he put you through that pain again!" he shouted as his eyes flashed golden. I have a feeling that his stance on Ass-er's and my relationship changed.
