Chapter 60: An invite from my bestie ex husband.
Belinda’s POV

The house was quiet when I came in, maybe Anneliese is still in bed, after all it's just 3am in the morning.

I walked to the kitchen and dropped the groceries I had gotten on the table.

I found some half-drunk milk on the table.

I shook my head as I marched upstairs, My body ached so much from the dance I did at the night club.

A tired yawn escaped my throat, I can't wait to land into my bed and have a good sleep.

I was walking to my room when I passed Anne's.

The door was slightly opened and there she was , sitting on her bed in an Indian style which I found funny.

“I didn't know you've started doing this indian meditation shit..”, I pushed the door and I laughed as I got in.

“Heya, you're back home”, she shot me a smile but I could see it in her eyes…sadness.

“What happened? “, I asked 

“What?”She rolled her eyes.

“I've known you for years and I know when you are sad so spill out whatever is wrong…”

“Nothing for real, I went to a dinner I got invited to and guess who I met.”

“Damien..”, i mentioned the only person I know that can get her in this mood.

“Yes, and he even had a new woman with him.”

She said and I felt bad somehow, she's feeling sad because she saw a new woman with Damien. How would she feel if she saw me with him? 

But I pushed it off.

“I'm sorry about that but you know life goes on, you should try to move on as well.”, I said.

“Of course, I know that and I'm not feeling sad or anything, guess another thing that happened?”

“Uhmm…you met that naughty cousin of yours?”

“No, I got called Mrs Maddox over and over again…not Anneliese, not Anne, not even Rowan but Naddix, ughhhh,I feel like breaking their bald heads.”, She said and we both burst into a long laughter.

“Don't mind them all, silly hypocrites.”I laughed, “ so what did you do?”

“Nothing,” she said. “I just stood there but thank God for Cakeb, he was there with me and he kept introducing me as his girlfriend, he corrected almost everyone in the hall.”  She gave a shaky laugh which made me chuckle.

“He kept saying I was a blessing to anybody who had me. In front of everyone. He saved me from drowning in Damien’s shadow.”

I could see how much those words meant to her. 

Her cheeks softened for a moment and her eyes were glowing  with something fragile, something like hope.

“Hmmm.. someone is in love”, I clapped my hands

“No! He's just a friend, my second Bestfriend.”

“I thought I was going to be your one and only, “ I pouted and pulled a playful face.

“Ahhh…I never promised you,” she laughed.

“Okay, let's be serious now.” 

“Alright ma'am.”

“Don't you think Cakeb is a cool guy, it's always in his eyes that he likes  you, what if he asks you to be his, are you going to say no? And throw away someone as good as that?” 

But then her expression changed, and she looked away. 

“I don't know Bel… I’m scared. I’m scared to even think about loving again. Caleb is kind, but… what if I break all over again?”

I couldn't help the guilt I was feeling….

She trusted Mr so much that she opened everything to me.

My fingers curled into my lap and my nails were digging into my skin. I wanted to tell her everything, confess that I was already slipping down a path she would never forgive me for but the words wouldn’t come. My throat burned with them, yet they stayed trapped.

I forced a smile instead, “Anne, listen…you deserve happiness, you’ve been through hell. Maybe Caleb really is what you need. Don’t let fear keep you from something good.”

Her eyes searched mine, they were raw and vulnerable. “Do you think so?”

“Yes,” I whispered, though my heart was pounding like a drum of lies.

She nodded slowly, then leaned her head on my shoulder.

Inside, my guilt spread like poison.

Because while she was scared of love, I was drowning in abd it's not for a stranger but for Damien….her ex-husband, the same man who had destroyed her.

I hated myself. I should let him go. I should.

But then I remembered his voice the last night I saw him, the way he stared and talked to me.

Damien Maddox is known to be cold , even he was cold to his own wife but he was soft and smiley around me, maybe that's a sign that we are meant to be together.

That memory sent a shiver through me.

I closed my eyes. God, what was I doing? Please help me.

My head is so confused right now…one moment I'm feeling all guilty, another I think I don't really like Anne.

Just follow your heart Belinda, I told myself.

I walked into my room, feeling a bit lighter.

Maybe we were really meant to be..
Anneliese would just learn to get used to it.

I was ready to sleep when  my phone's screen lit up.

It was a message from Damien , my heart skipped a lot of beat.

The message said:

Meet me up at Room 105, Freedom hotel, 8pm, don't keep me waiting.

The message alone made my panties get soaked, my pussy suddenly started dripping…what the heck? 

My body started vibrating with beads of sweat running down my body

Stop Belinda , the fact that he asked you to come doesn't mean anything is going to happen, I told myself but I need no one to tell me that I'm going to be getting fucked by Damien.

Oh my God.

This feels like a dream come true, something I've been fascinated about for years is going to be happening tonight.

I release a very long and sharp scream into my pillow.

My eyes became so clear and my body more active, the sleep I wanted to have just disappeared.

Even though I had 10 hours to prepare, I jumped down from my bed and I started going through my wardrobe , fishing out every sexy  pair I could find. 



I applied my red lipstick on my lips for the 500th time, I turned around before the mirror and I winked at myself , satisfied with what I saw, my butt was perfectly shooting out in the tight fitting red long to knee gown I was putting on, the matching heels match perfectly and my hair was packed in a french braid.

Anneliese came in , “where are you going?” she asked me.

“Uhmm..to a party..”, I lied and I felt guilt a bit deep in my chest again.

“Alright, have fun ..use protection and don't get pregnant…and if you wanna do , make sure it's gonna be a blue eyed baby…”, she said and we both laughed.

If only she knows I'm going to meet her ex husband in a hotel.

I bit my lips as we both walked out of my room.

I waited for a while in the living room before I heard a gonk outside. I bid Anneliese goodbye as I rushed out with my heels clicking on the tiles.

I walked outside only to see a black car waiting for me…..I need nobody to tell me before I know that  it was from Damien.

I opened the door and got in, the car sped off almost immediately.

Throughout the drive, my heart was beating so hard in my chest like a war drum.

We finally got to the huge hotel, the driver led me in and a few times I felt as if my heart was going to fall off my chest.

We finally got to the door and he bowed and left. I inhaled in and out a few times before I knocked on the door. 

“Who's there ..?”, His deep voice made my pussy ache again 

“It's me Belinda.”, I said trying to sound confident but my voice betrayed me.

“Come in.”

And with that I pushed the door open, I told myself I was not doing anything wrong.
