Blaze

Skye left after that kiss she gave me, not even giving me a chance to explain the pictures. I sat down on the kitchen table chair and buried my head in my hand. I waited for Skye to come back and say "haha I fooled you, get pranked" but unfortunately that never happened. She just left, without an explanation. I scanned through the pics, I didn't even know existed, cause it never happened, I looked closely at the girl in the picture, and identified her as Piper, my old assistant.

Dread overcame me as I pictured my sweet angel sitting on the couch, analysing these photos, right after I admitted that I had feelings for her.

Flashback
"Morning angel," I said huskily when I opened my eyes and found her awake underneath me, her arms around me, holding me tight while fiddling with my hair.

"Morning Blazy

"Morning Blazy. Are you going into work today?" she asked sweetly.
"And leave you alone? Hell no"
"Blazy you have to go, it's been too long since you went to work. You've barely worked from home either and I know that you have a lot of piled up work. And I'm completely fine now baby, you don't have to worry about me"
Yes we're already at the nickname stage
"But I do worry about you my love, Of course, believe it or not, I don't hate you. You have me wrapped around your finger without you even knowing it. I'm obsessed baby. I really really really like you Skye" I told her confidently, without moving from on top of her. She's too comfy. She blushed crimson as she heard me praise her. "You know what Blaze? I really really really like you too" she said, causing my heart to swell. "But, you have to go to work. I'll make your breakfast ready while you go freshen up." I tried protesting a little more, but she was not having it "Blaze Caddel you will go to work today without a fuss. This is an order coming from your pretty little wife. Besides, you have Jonah to deal with today" she said in a playfully angry manner, concluding to me shutting up. She had also told me about what went down with Jonah, and I assured her that he would be taken care of. I gave a full-on kiss before going into the shower."

...

I pulled myself together and decided to ring Carter up, cause I knew that no matter what, she would not go back to the Knight mansion and she and Carter are still extremely close, and to be honest, I'm not very fond of their friendship, so he was my only next hope.

He finally picked up my call after a few rings, he sounded incredibly annoyed, prompting me to theorize that he already knew about what I had apparently done.
"What do you want?" he said roughly
"Geez brother, what crawled up your ass?" I joked to lighten the mood
"What do you want Blaze" he repeated prompting me to sigh "Is Skye with you?" I asked
"No? Why? Is she not at home?"
"Ummm no? She isn't here" I hesitated. I didn't want to tell Carter about her asking me for a divorce considering he doesn't know about it.
"Ok well do you know where she is?" that dimwit asked me
"You think I would have called and asked you if you knew where she was if I knew where she was you motherfucker" I lost it at him. "Ok chill, I'll call her and find out where she is. If she comes back home, just let me know." his voice came through the line before it went silent.

I banged my head against the wall when it dawned on me that I had a private investigator. I rang him up and told him to find my angel.

After about 30 minutes of waiting, and constantly pressurising him to find her, we found something. Thankfully and as expected, she wasn't at the Knights, but nor was she with Carter. She was alone, in a rundown hotel. I'm not sure why she has enough money to stay at a luxurious hotel. I took the address from my pi and rushed out of my door, into my garage. I jumped into my BMW and sped out of the gates.

I reached the hotel and rechecked the address cause this is not where she's staying. It can't be. This place looks deserted like no one has been here in the years. The paint had completely peeled off and the building looked like it would collapse any second. I double-checked the address again before deciding to make my way inside. The inside of this place definitely looks better than the outside. It's dimly lit, with a simple coffee table and a couch on the side. There was a desk at which the receptionist sat. I walked up to her and asked her if there was anyone who had a room booked here with the name Skye.
"I'm sorry sir, but it is against our protocol to give out any information about our guests. We do have a Skye Knight here but I can't give you any more details," she said.

I knew that we would let me in only if she spoke to Skye and got permission from her to let me in, But if Skye knew that I was coming, she wouldn't let me in. So I knew I had to use my name and throw in some money to get the spare key to her room. After settling on a price with the receptionist, I made my way to room 13 with the spare key. I opened the door to her room, without giving her a warning, but regretted it instantly. My vision blurred due to the scene I saw unfold in front of me.

My wife, in the arms of another man. And the other man was none other than my own brother. My own blood.
