DEREK
I loved my wife. I still do. But love didn't stop me from choosing desire over loyalty-or convincing myself I'd fix the damage before she noticed. I thought regret would be enough.
It wasn't.
MALORY
When I discovered my husband's affair, I stayed for our daughter. She was only eleven months old, and I refused to give her the childhood I survived. But three years of empty rooms, broken promises, and watching him choose another woman carved something hollow inside me-until someone else filled it.
I finally realised, my daughter deserves more than an absent father.
And I deserve better than a cheating husband.
Cancelled Mistakes is a dark, emotionally raw story of betrayal, forbidden love, and the brutal truth that some choices destroy everything-and asking forgiveness doesn't mean you deserve it.
