Dangerous Desires Novel

13 I want to try

Luke.

Ever since the kiss between Tia and Caleb, I had been guarded towards her. I spent long hours in the office and always came home late. Tia was hanging out a lot with Caleb, and every time I sat in the office, all I could do was picture them together. I did not know why it bothered me, but it did, and it hurt.

I knew she was deliberately avoiding breakfast, and I did not bother her because Stacy was obnoxious towards her. I knew Stacy had been reporting her a lot, but when my father linked me and insisted I come with Tia, I knew something must be off, but then again, I remembered Kimberly had joined us, and I thought they only wanted us to have breakfast together.

Hearing the old video of Elisabeth and me playing on Tia’s phone got me mad. I did not know why Elisabeth refused to move on. I still sent her money and urged her to move on, but I did not realise she was tormenting my wife with old videos of us when we were together. I knew she was hurting, but she wasn’t the only victim in this. She had the freedom to fall in love again and move on, but Tia and I were stuck together. If Tia leaves, my father will cast her and her parents out because he viewed her as an asset, and I also knew it had a lot to do with his ego. I dared not leave her. I was putting effort, but she had her eyes locked on Caleb, and I could not compete with her long time crush. Maybe after seeing Kimberly with him, she would have the courage to move on with her life.

Tia’s outburst during breakfast amazed me, but I could see that she had a lot bottled up. I also believed the messages Elisabeth kept sending, my absence, and the tension with Caleb and Stacy’s wickedness caused it. Her hands shook while she spoke, and my father was stunned. The woman had finally cracked.

I stopped Stacy from slapping her. She could say and do as she liked, but I would never allow her to lay hands on my wife. That was the line. My father’s response was shocking. Even after he showed me the photos and Tia’s lace panties that had her sent on them, I was still disappointed. There were better ways to handle the matter. If the pictures were genuine, Caleb was just as guilty as she was. My father’s response was wicked.

I had to drag my wife out of the breakfast lounge. It was challenging, but I had to do it. I watched her shake from fear on the bed, and my heart broke. The woman was too young for all this. Stacy did not spare me all my life; I shouldn’t be surprised that she would spare Tia. When Tia told me it wasn’t true, I believed her. I knew she had a crush on Caleb, but I also knew she had her dignity and would never stoop so low. I held her because I knew at that moment she needed comfort. I promised myself that I would investigate.

Caleb was able to clear Tia’s name, and my father had sent his wife away temporarily to reflect on her action. That wasn’t the first time he would do that, and that wouldn’t be the last. I wasn’t happy with him still. The amount of hatred he visited on Tia when he believed the lies were unfair. Tia was very young, and she was prone to mistakes. He did not treat her as he would his daughter. He treated her like an object he had purchased and could discard. I knew if it weren’t for the fear that her parents would be cast out, my wife would run away.

overtime at the office to get paid extra. I wanted to surprise Tia. I believed being couped up in that house was not helping her let go of her crush, and it wasn’t giving us time to know each other. Even if we would never be lovers, we could at least be friends. So I

decided I would surprise her with a trip to a nice resort, away from Caleb, my father and all the drama that came with the Moons.

I got home and found her sleeping. It was two in the morning, and I did not expect her to be awake. I had been paid, so I was ready to tell her about our trip. I showered and went to check on her before I go to bed. I noticed something protruding from under her pillow, and I checked to see it. I smiled when I saw what it was. My wife was making sure she was self sufficient with the right tools. It was a vibrator, and I wished I was home to watch her like I did last time. The image was burned in my memory, and I hoped that she would moan that way for me someday.
