Another chance

Life(Pete pov)

I fell for him the first time, I met him. He was gorgeous, tall, and charming. But he was interested in Porsche so I never acted on it. Until the day he saves me, I don't know what came over me but I offer myself to him.

And starting from that sleeping with him become a regular thing, I was on cloud 9. Vegas was everything I could ask in a man, but his heart didn't belong to me. I was happy with what I had, I was afraid if I was greedy, it could destroy it. So I never overstep the boundary.

That day I heard that he was sick, so I prepare some food and went to visit him. I knock on the door but there is no answer so I open the door using the password that Vegas gave me. When I entered, I could smell Vegas's pheromones all over the place, it was very strong. I could feel my body tangling. Vegas attacked me as soon as he saw me, he was too strong for me and that night I got marked.

Vegas apologize for what he did and promises to take responsibility. A year later, I got pregnant with Venice. When I told Vegas about it, he was shocked, I could feel he wasn't happy about it but I brushed it off. When my brother found out about it, he was beyond mad, he beat the hell out of Vegas. He was angry with me too, he scold me for being careless.

Then we got married, and our married life wasn't what I imagine. Vegas was always busy with work and tired when he come home. He didn't even ask anything about the baby. I always told myself it is fine and that he is busy.

When I went into labor, he wasn't there, it's okay, he will come. I told myself but when I open my eye once again I saw my family but not him. He wasn't there. He came a day later cause he was on an "important" business trip. But I was happy he came, I push my sadness aside and welcome him back with open. It was my biggest mistake ever.

Although I have given birth, he was still busy at work and spend less time with the child. As Venice grow up, he started to ask about his dad and want to spend time with him. I tried to get Vegas to spend time with Venice but he always has an excuse whether he has an important meeting or he has to do something important.

It was Venice's birthday and he miss it. He promise to make it up to him and would take him out the next day but then he cancel. I was mad, how could he do that?

And we got into a fight that night when he came back from work. During our fight, he said something that shatter my heart into pieces. "if it weren't for you, I could have gotten Porsche" I felt my heart shatter into pieces, after everything I have done, how could he?

I felt betrayed and heartbroken. I slap him across the face and run to the room and lock myself in it. Vegas come to comfort me but I didn't want to hear it.

How could he after all these years, after all the pain I went through for him? I know he didn't love me but..... hearing him say that......... just break my heart. I could take it anymore, that night I cried my heart out, didn't even realize when I fall asleep.

When I woke up, I was on the bed and Vegas was sleeping beside me. Ugh! the sight of him just disgusts me. I wash up and took all the things I need and pick Venice up from his bed and left the house. I don't want to be near him for even a second.
