Shelby's pov

The minute Adam hung up his cell phone and told me that whore was going to be singing with him at the benefit something inside me snapped. He and I had been getting so much closer lately and the idea that he was going to be close to her again sent some sort of animalistic survival instincts surging through my veins. I went upstairs, put on a dress and did my hair and makeup. That bitch was not going to get near my husband again. Not while there was a breath left in my body.

Adam seemed surprised to see me ready to go out with him. I could see that in his eyes. But I also saw in his eyes, a twinkle of hope. He hoped that this meant things were changing for us and honestly I wanted that too. But I was scared. And going to this benefit and facing the whore was as good a start to facing those fears as anything else.

I stuck to Adam like glue once we arrived making damn sure she knew he belonged to me. I could see her smirking at me and rolling her eyes at me and all of the anger and pain was beginning to swell again. I grabbed some champagne and guzzled it fast. Then more. I lost track of exactly how much I had drank but once we got back home and my head began to spin I had  a pretty good idea it had been quite a lot. Do not ask me why, but within minutes of arriving back home I was naked and begging him to take me up against the wall. He tried to protest, I could see the apprehension in his eyes. But I was relentless. I had needed to reclaim what I had lost. I needed to feel the passion that I had foolishly pushed into the arms of another woman. I needed Adam.

Once we were done I could feel tears stinging the back of my eyes but I had no idea why. I was a massive ball of raw emotion and before I said or did something incredibly stupid that would have made things worse with adam I did the one thing I had become quite good at lately. I sent Adam away.

"So let me get this straight. You seduced your incredibly hot husband into fucking your brains out against a wall and then you sent him back to his cold lonely bed"

I had met Tom at the recording studio the next morning for some breakfast and girl talk before he began laying tracks for his new album. He was my best friend and I really thought he would be able to help me sort out this clusterfuck that had become my emotions.

"Well Tom when you say it like that it sounds really bad"

He rolled his eyes at me and then before he could start his lecture the door opened and his session singers entered.

"Shit what the fuck is she doing here? Are there no other qualified backup singers in this town other than that whore?"

Tom shrugged at me and swore he had no idea Danielle was one of the session singers. As they took their places Danielle fixated her eyes on me. Before I was tempted to cut a bitch I hugged Tom and told him I'd call him later.

"Get your skinny ass out of here and go tell that delicious husband of yours you want him back."

"I haven't decided anything yet."

"you have babygirl. Even if you can't admit it to yourself yet. You know exactly what you want"

"how can you be so sure?"

"you put your wedding ring back on"

I glanced down at my hand and I realized tom was right. About everything. I needed Adam in my life and the only way we were every going to truly move on was together. I stopped by the restroom on my way out and freshened up and took out my cell and texted Adam. 

"we need to talk....Please?"

A few anxious minutes later he replied.

"Headed to the house now. see you there. I love you"

My lips formed a smile on their own. I was about to reply to him when the bathroom door opened and I was face to face with the devil herself.

"we need to talk Shelby"
