But what happens when a blast from the past comes knocking, and with it comes all the baggage Ariana has tried for 9 years to keep buried behind her. She is faced with a choice to make. Elijah stone Famous, handsome, sexy, dangerous and broken. But that last part he tries to hide from the public. Well known for his success in the business world after having inherited the family business from his father, alongside his brother. He carries a burden from a past he's trying so hard to forget. A past he regretted ever being a part of A past he wishes he could erase and change for the better. He seeks redemption, but that's a word far too big for Elijah, because he knows he can never get it. Not after he broke her. Not after he ruined her life. 9 years after and he still feels like a monster, a monster that doesn't deserve forgiveness, a monster that should be left to rot in hell. But life works in mysterious ways, and Elijah has been given another chance. A chance to redeem himself. A chance to prove that he is a changed man, different from the goofy, rude, arrogant and self absorbed teenager he once was. But he soon finds out that redeeming himself is not the only thing he has to do. Life just fucks with you when you least expect it.

The Affair by itsthegiaera

Cassie Turner never thought she'd be the kind of woman who cheats. She had a good life. A husband who adored her. A marriage that should've been enough. But then Zane Reed walked in-tattoos snaking across his skin, piercing green eyes full of danger, and a presence that made it impossible to look away. He was temptation in its rawest form, and Cassie? She was already too far gone. One touch, and she was undone. One night, and she was lost. What started as a secret spiraled into something she couldn't control. Passion. Lies. Guilt. And a love that was never meant to last. But Cassie wasn't the only one keeping secrets and soon she realized that she hadn't been the only one breaking their vows. Now, she's standing at the edge of everything she swore she'd never ruin, faced with a choice she should have made long ago. Because in the end, it was never about him. It was always about them. And she just hopes that she isn't too late to fix what she broke. ******** "Fuck me like I'm famous," I smile against his lips. "Then scream for me like the paparazzi's watching" he said as he thrust forward. ********* THE AFFAIR contains mature themes, including erotica, explicit language, and mental health struggles, which maybe upsetting for some readers. READER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.
