The Love From Vengeance

105 VEILED ANIMOSITY

ARIEL’S POV

Andre and I stood close, as Luke’s glare was still directed at us. He was silent, but that silence said a lot of things. An intense rage right there, he was burning with. If looks could kill, Andre and I would have probably been dead by now.

And I didn’t know why I just felt scared, but this was really kind of crazy. He was just sleeping minutes ago. How on earth did he wake up, and get down here in a flash? Well, that didn’t matter anyway. At the moment, I just wished that this husband of mine wasn’t going to let his anger get the best of him. Cause if he did, the situation might get out of hand, with someone ending up at the hospital in the end.

Draw your mind back to when this man caught Michael and Rose having sex at his place of work. Also when he saw me with Daniel. What were the results? All concluding with violence, wounds, and I didn’t like that one bit. His anger had him transfiguring into a wild dog, or a lion in fact. A cold–blooded wolf, ready to wound someone with its fangs, and would let the pain come in right there, with screams of torture.

Not that I was scared of what he would do to me. I was scared of what he might do to Andre. The man could be a lunatic in situations like this. And I was pretty sure Andre wouldn’t want to fight back, if perhaps, a brawl commenced. He was the type of person who loved making peace, using words of tranquility. And never adored violent actions.

“Wow. Look at what we have here. Two little love birds expressing their feelings, with their hands together,” Luke uttered slowly, although his menacing look had

not come to an end.

He was trying to act chill. But it was crystal clear he was burning as hell on the inside. I didn’t know why he had that face on, if we was claiming to hate me so much. No passion for me, right? So what was with the glare, Mr.?

That was why I had to say that I was really confused sometimes. No doubt. His actions moved differently, his words remained the same. But I had a feeling. Yes, I had a feeling that a spark was right there.

Right now, these thoughts shouldn’t even be revolving in my head, cause I knew a wrestling match was about to take place. Well, it was more like a one–sided violence crap. Yeah, and I hoped for that not to transpire.

*“What are you doing here, Andre?” Luke took a step forward. “And what is this

nonsense that I see you’re carrying out with my wife?”

“It’s not what you think, okay?” Andre tried to defend.

“Don’t tell me that. You’re standing right there, holding hands with my wife. What the fuck, man!”
