Every morning we woke up 
Every day we looked at each other.
Every day we went on our routine.
Every day we lived our lives
Every night we burned in love we couldn't have
Every night we lied to ourselves
The greatest lie was saying 
I'm good

In the same building 
On the same floor. 
Married to different people
Telling each other lies.
Four lives. Two arranged marriages.
Asking what actual love is.

I was halfway across the room when I felt his calloused hands yank me towards his hard chest. "Or ," he mumbled, moving my braid to the other side of my neck. "How about I bend you over this desk and make you scream my name," he whispered into my ear, his hot breath sending shivers down my spine. I chuckle softly as I step out of his embrace and walk towards the door. Turning on my heels I give him a once over as I bite my lower lip,"get down on your knees and beg for it first," I say sweetly as his eyes darken and his pants tighten. Down boy. "Goodbye Mr. De'luca " I laugh as I exit his office leaving him horny and slightly flabbergasted. Lord knows that I would be paying for that down the road.

"𝑻𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 𝒇𝒊𝒓𝒔𝒕 𝒑𝒂𝒈𝒆, 𝑵𝒐𝒕 𝒘𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚 𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆 𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒔" •••• "Don't lie, Amisha. I'm sick of these lies. And if you're so sure that you didn't cheat on me, then fine, let's move on to the next step,prove me you didn't cheated on me" he said, and she frowned in confusion. He realized she didn't understand his intention. "Get intimate with me, tell me that you love me, and I'll believe you. I'll believe that you're telling the truth," he said, or more precisely, made an offer. She couldn't process his words. Her heart broke as she listened to him. •••• His expression darkened, pain flickering in his eyes. "Kya kami reh gayi thi, Amisha? Sab kuch diya tha tumhe... apna dil tumharee kadmon mein rakha tha. Fir bhi tumne yeh kiya?" His words came out in a choked whisper, his composure slipping. (Was there anything I didn't give you, Amisha? I gave you everything... I placed my heart at your feet. And still, you did this) Tears gathered in his eyes, though he struggled to maintain his demeanor, reminding himself he couldn't afford to be soft. "You're hurting me," she whispered, her voice cracking slightly. His eyes flickered with guilt, but he didn't let go. "And what about the hurt you caused me?I loved you, Amisha. I gave you everything. My heart, my soul... everything. And still, you didn't choose me." Tears welled up in her eyes. "You should have looked into my eyes once, it was always you Vivaan. But your jealousy... your obsession... it's destroying us."

Arranged to marry a rich guy she has never heard of, because she never watched all the gossip channels or TV in general. Cara Winters comes home after a hard day of working at the cafe, only to have her father tell her that she was getting married in just two weeks to a guy she didn't know existed up until that moment. And she has no way of opting out, because she would then have to pay a large sum of money that she cannot come up with even if she had more than one lifetime. Zander Morreti could not believe his ears when his father looked at him impassively, as he told him that he was going to get married in just two weeks. He had never in his life imagined that he would get married at such a young age let alone an arranged marriage to a waitress. IT'S THE 21ST CENTURY!! Who does that? Apparently his father and he had no option if he ever wanted to inherit the company. ............ ...he could not believe she had caught him just when he had succumbed to the advances of his secretary!! He got to their room only to find only most of her things missing. As he collapsed on the bed, something caught his eye. On the dresser was a white paper. He quickly picked it up and what he saw almost gave him a heart attack. In his hand was an ultrasound with his wife's name on it. ............ ...he could not believe she had caught him just when he had succumbed to the advances of his secretary!!

The Billionaire's Ex-Wife by Enjoy_Little_Moments

Love. It was infuriating yet strangely addicting. It swirls in unknown waters, testing its limits before striking. The sensation of its claws digging into your flesh was all it took for it to become entranced. And then everything collapsed. Everything began to untangle. Everything slowly crumbled to ground. Everything began to fall apart. And you found yourself in the centre of it all, your hands cradling your heart as tears trickled down your cheeks, the salty liquid creating a dark patch on your jeans as it hit the soft fabric. You're vulnerable. You're scared. You're hurt. You're broken. But when you finally have the courage, to wipe away an trace of a broken heart. When you finally lift yourself from the dark pit you had created. When you finally patch together the remnants of your shattered soul. When you finally close your eyes. When you forget. When you become invincible. When you finally heal. It all comes back. Everything. Like an arrow that had been shot in your back, your eyes widening from the unforeseen attack. That's what happens. Because love is dirty. Love was the ugly, ever changing shadow that would snarl at you, jeering at your pitiful state. But then it was also the beautiful stroke of the paintbrush, as the brush winded across the canvas, the colours flourishing into life. Love was a demon, yet also an angel in disguise. That was love. _____________________________________ [ WARNING ⚠ : I wrote this as an inexperienced pre-pubescent so prepare for a cringefest.
