John Kramer | FORBIDDEN DESIRE (Book1)

ʏᴏᴜ ᴋɴᴇᴡ ᴡʜᴀᴛ'ꜱ ʀɪɢʜᴛ

I was walking alone towards my home. It wasn't far away from here, I came to buy some goods at the store. It wasn't that much just one paper bag.

I have my earphones on while my phone was on my pouch. I was walking slowly, enjoying the music when suddenly this woman ran to me.

My groceries hit the ground as the wine that I bought break and it spilled the other food as well. I shot the woman a dearh stare as she just walked pass me.

She was small, blond and had a nice body but his attitude speaks louder.

"Get out of my way, girl!" she never even dare to help me up.

"What a bitch!" I told her and seconds later she's already gone, she was doing a jogging or something.

I pick my stuff on the ground as I felt mad, it's my last allowance and now the food is spoiled. Nothing much is usable now just the vegetable that I'm going to use to make a salad.

I ran to my home unable to contain my emotions, I clutch my hair as I let my anger out. I kick the door as hard as I could just when I heard a man's voice in front of my door.

"Are you okay, y/n?" John asked, he was my favorite neighbor near my area.

I sighed heavily while I rushed towards him, he caressed my head while softly holding me like a friend comforting me.

"I came in to stopped by, you must be upset... I heard you making noise" he said as I let go on him, I asked him to stay for awhile... we went to the living room.

John sat down with a comfortable gaze on me, he look at my place.

"Great home, y/n!" he said and I can't help to smile.

He look at me before I finally start to tell him what happened. John was listening to me, he didn't bother to interrupt.

Once I'm finished John look at me with a meaning.

"That's terrible, y/n.. why don't you come over my home, I just cooked something for lunch" he said and I agreed.

John and I left my home as he lead me to his home. It was a big yet modern home, I didn't know that it's better on the inside.

John told me to wait on the couch as he was going to prepare everything. Finally after minutes of waiting, he asked me to eat with him.

I was enjoying his company, he was telling me stories about himself and that he mentioned his wife. She was living near here and she will come to visit later.

John was eager, he wants me to meet his wife. I was quite jealous on how John talked about him, I never know he was married... I never realized he was wearing a ring.

He didn't let me go easily as he told me that he will treat me some cupcakes later and it made me feel super happy because I don't have anything to eat at home.

I spend my time on John's living area after we finished eating. I grabbed some book on his shelf, he had a crazy collection of books.

I sat on the couch next to him and then I continued to read and read while John was asking me about myself.

I told him that I have work downtown and I only live alone at home. John smiled before he head to the kitchen to bake.

And then I heard knocking on the door, John didn't hear it because he was busy making cupcakes that's why I just came to open the door.

When I opened it, I was surprised and upset knowing that it was the woman earlier. She looked shocked too before she asked me.

"What the hell! why are you here- are you his mistress?" I didn't know what she meant as she just pushed me to let herself in.

I followed him unable to hide my irritation as I found out that she was on the kitchen, talking to John. He smiled once he noticed me and then she smiled at the woman.

"Meet my wife, Jill!" I almost choked.

No it cannot be! Why her?!

The woman named Jill smiled in a mocking way before she hug me but I could feel that she was disgusted by me.

Don't worry the feeling is very mutual...

And then Jill asked about me, John tells me that I'm a friend of him.

I can't help but to throw dirty glance on Jill, she was smiling and laughing while her eyes was busy judging me.

And that's when I snapped on her.

"It's her, John- the woman I'm talking about earlier- she ran on me on purpose!" I told him and she frowned.

"So it was you, Jill?! Aren't you guilty from what you did to
y/n?" John moved away from her with a serious look on his face.

"So what if it's me, John? She looked like an idiot out there so I just want to remind her of that!" one of Jill eyebrows lift up with a grin on her lips.

John looked at her as he sighed, he was clearly containing his anger. I could feel the air thickening as the tension between them heated up.

Jill tried to touch John's arm but John pushed her away, unable to look at his wife.

"If only I know you will be like this, Jill- I'm not going to marry you... goodbye" John said in an upset way.

John approached me as he look at me in a concerning way. And then he look back to Jill before removing the ring on his finger, he throw it away as Jill's smile faded out.

"You can't do this, John! I'm your wife and you must stood for me not her!" Jill furiously rushed at me, as she pulled my hair.

I screamed in annoyance as she hold on tightly. Jill's intentions were dark, she was using force to deal with me but it didn't last long when John pulled me away from her.

"I said enough! Let's go, y/n!" John took my hand as he lead us out but still Jill didn't give up.

"You can't leave me here! I'm still your wife, John-" he cut his wife off and said.

"Not for too long, the divorce papers will arrive tomorrow" John said and Jill furiously throw the things that caught her eye, the lamp, the pot of plants and the near gardening tools.

John looked at her once again as he never let go of my hand.

"I will hold that against you- you will pay for that" John calmly stated before we went inside his car.

Jill just stood there in a lifeless motion, she was just staring at us without saying anything.

John's hand was still on me as he squeeze it, his eyes were watching me.

"Everything will be fine, y/n..." he said before starting the engine.

"Thank you John- for standing up for the right" I said and he just nod.

"But why? she was your wife and I'm just a stranger that become your friend lately" I asked in a low tone.

"Even if she's my wife- she's still wrong... and you're not just a stranger to me, y/n" John admitted before he drives.

What exactly does it mean?
