"You can't just leave this house and return any freaking time you want, you are a wife for crying out loud" i bellowed in anger

"Excuse me please what did i just hear u say?  me a wife or what" she replied

"The last time i checked i am a free woman,  a divorcee, single woman who is ready to mingle"

"As long as you are still under this roof you will have to abide by every single rules in the house" i replied 

"Which are what? i am sick and tired of this house,  i need to breath in fresh air.  I just can't wait to move into the new apartment i just got or should i just pack out now" she asked smiling

"You know we had an agreement,you can't leave this house until after the election. Moreover the kids will be back from their holiday soon. We have to keep the facade" I said 

"Keep the kini(what)? Kini eleyi n ba mi so? (what is this one telling me)? Are you for real? what foolish act do you want me to keep up am done with that pretending nonsense.  Like the kids do not know already" she said rolling her eyes

"Know what woman? what are you not telling me? I hope you have not gone ahead to poision the mind of those innocent kids?  I asked 

"Poison what mind?  The kids know what going on from the quarrels to the divorce process.  They know everything including how their father is a coward and their grandma the evil who orchestra everything" 

"How dare you go ahead to tell my children all those lies?  how dare you huh? " i moved angrily towards her prepared to strike her face but her hand stopped me

"What do you think you want to do ehn?  i didn't know you have added wife beating to your long list and let me remind you one thing.  i am their mother, i carried them for nine months each, backed  them for 3yrs each. Neither sleep nor slumber when they cry at night and they suckled on this breast endlessly. Now tell me who they will believe, you,your mother or me. Good night Mr Williams"  She walked out leaving me stunned.

"ahhh!" I screamed before pushing him off the bed. With my heart racing, I clutched my white pillow to my chest even though I was not naked. White pillow? I don't own anything white for obvious reasons. " Ughh! You're more violent when you're awake." My idiot of a cousin said as he tried massaging his back. " What are you doing in my bed?" I yelled at him. I know he is family but he is a guy. And I don't like having guys this close to me, alone, in my room. " In your bed?" he scoffed before adding " check again Kelly." It was then I noticed I was not in my bed, not in my grandma's, not even in my dad's. It was... Ben's. No no no! Please don't tell me I.... " Yeah. You sleepwalked to my room" he must have guessed my thoughts when he saw the horrified expression I had on my face. " I don't sleepwalk." I said stubbornly. I know I did but I wouldn't give him the satisfaction of admitting. The thing was... I started sleepwalking after he relocated to UK. I would always find myself in his room in the morning whenever I stayed at grandma's house. I guessed I missed him that much. But now he is here, I don't understand how I ever missed him. He took off his T-shirt. Showing off his drool - worthy body. Instead of finding my way out, what do you think I did? I sat down rooted to the bed, staring at his body. What broke the trance was the cocky smirk on his face. Trust me. When a guy is cute and he doesn't know, that's very adorable. But when he looks good and he knows, that is the spelling of danger. *** Christmas is near! Who is excited? Everyone but Kelechi. After a break up, Christmas excitement is not what she needs. Definitely not her entire dysfunctional family in one place. Especially not her cousin Ben who she is attracted to. Quick question: When you are attracted to your cousin, is it love or lust?

I limped towards the kitchen after sending him an email, that I'm on leave today. I couldn't even able to walk properly as I was feeling sore down there, just thinking about what happened yesterday was enough to make me trembling down with fear. He was rough, way too rough. He didn't even mind that I was on my 5th day of my menstrual period. For him it's all about him and his needs. He will never change. My lips wobbled as I cleared my tears as it started to flow down. Entering the kitchen, I took the glass of water gulping it down furiously to calm my racing heartbeat. I took another and another as my throat was itching and hurting with all that screaming. I gasped while keeping the glass in the sink. I won't be going to office today not after his brutality. I don't have enough strength to face him. I just can't... He's an animal and I don't think I can even stay in the same room as him even though he had done this so many times, yesterday he went too far. He crossed his limits and I don't want to see his face. I just hate him so much. As I stood holding the sink, a thought crossed my mind, why life is so cruel to me? What did I do to receive these? Why did I ended up with him? I just want to live normally. I sighed brushing my open hair, thinking about my miserable life. I shook my head, tying my hair in a bun. I turned around to leave the kitchen only to get startled by him. Him? My eyes widened at the realisation as gasped left my mouth in horror at the sight of him. What? He's here. It means... he never left. And the worst part is he's also looking at me with that look on his face. Lust filled eyes. Will he ever leave me alone? ------------------------- ⚠️WARNING: IT CONTAINS ABUSIVE DARK ROMANCE AND FORCED MATURED CONTENT. -------------------------- Highest Rankings:- #1 Random - 26/10/2023 #2 Zaddy- 5/01/2024 #2 Badboy - 26/02/2024 #4 Indian - 26/02/2024 #5 Obsessed - 16/02/2024 DO NOT COPY MY WORK PLEASE!

I've dreamed of the perfect marriage ever since I was a little girl: a marriage complete with a hardworking husband while I tended to the home and our children, preferably four little rugrats to call my own. I dreamed of a life filled with laughter, joy, and success, a life we built together. I dreamed of growing old next to my husband, creating a great love story to tell our grandchildren someday. It all seemed so possible. I was raised to be the perfect wife, after all. From the outside, it seemed I had exactly what I dreamed of with the rich, determined husband; the brilliant, gaudy diamond ring; and the beautiful home filled with the hope of future children. Yes, it was all a dream come true. I should have felt grateful, really. The problem is, I also wanted a marriage based on love, passion, and affection, but those are the only things my husband cannot give me . . . . . . because they're reserved for her.

"Listen to me Qurratul Ayn, before you go, I want to know; did I ever offend you? Is my love for you too little?" I can feel his hand hovering over mine. He wants to hold it, but he knows better than to do that. "Please, I don't want to do this now. My flight is in thirty minutes." I can feel the tears wetting my Niqab. "No! I want to know. Where did I go wrong? Was it money? I didn't feed you well? I didn't clothe you? My love wasn't enough for you? I need to know, all those years! You're seriously willing to throw them away like they were nothing?" A sob breaks out but I manage to hide it behind a cough. I take a silent deep breath and turn, my Niqab swaying and making a whip sound. "It's not like, they really were nothing! Look, I don't have it in me to explain myself. You said you'd give me whatever I want? Then leave me be. I never loved you okay! I never did, it was all a sham, a facade!" His hand that was looming over mine falls limp beside him and he staggers back. "You're lying." He laughs. It's as if he's trying to convince himself. I scoff. "You think so? Well take a look at this." His eyes fill with tears and he takes one of his hands and place it on his mouth. He can't believe that it's actually true. "Okay, Fa'iza." My heart breaks. He never calls me that, ever. "I know something is wrong, and wallahi I'm going to find it out and bring you back to my house in six months. I promise." I feel my heart squeeze knowing his promise can never come to pass, ever. Death is nearing me so nothing can be done. Absolutely nothing. * Ten years of loving, doting over each other and marriage, Fa'iza upped and suddenly said she wanted out of the marriage. After months of persuasion and blackmail, Bello let her go, but before she left, he made a promise. Would he be able to fulfill this promise? STARTED: COMPLETED:

(WARNING: This is my first story btw. Some parts may be cringe or toxic, but I don't feel like changing anything at the moment) I watched as he frustratingly ran his hand through his jet black hair as he let out an loud sigh. "Axarii I do not have the patience for your childishness. I can no longer trust you therefore we're getting an divorce." He stated. That just ended my mood. "What! That girl doesn't even look like me, are you fucking blind? My boobs are not even that big! Just imagine Winston and I together, that's impossible." I screeched out and grabbed onto him. I mentally cursed at myself as I felt tears threatening to escape from my hideous eyes. I'm an ugly crier. He roughly pulled his arm out of my grasp. "I want you and your things out of here by tonight and at the company to sign the papers in the morning." "You can't be serious! How can you not believe me, your own wife over some damn fake pictures?" I looked at him only to see him blankly staring at me, not responding. I roughly wiped my eyes before any tears could escape. He would not see me cry. "I'll go but you'll just have to throw away or burn the clothes that you bought for me because I don't need anything from you." I mumbled as I turned away and headed for the stairs. "I don't need a wife that claims she has love for me when all she wants is to be around other men instead of her own husband." I continued to walk up the stairs, not bothering to reply to what he said, not bothered to wipe the tears knowing that he cannot see them. **** #2 ex - March 2024 #12 dominate - September 2023 #6 funny - November 2024 #1 darkness - November 2023 #5 plottwist - November 2023 #2 exwife- November 2024

A Spinoff From the Grace Series I skim my fingers along my woman's arm as she reclines back, seated in my lap with her back resting against the cushioned arm of the wooden bench we worked on together. I built it and she painted it. And each one of our kids put their handprints on it. My darling sewed cushions to tie on during the warm days so we can sit out here comfortably. Now we enjoy the fruits of our labor together. And I'm speaking about the couch and our marriage. "How did we start?" she asks languidly, her eyes shut. Her coily hair frames her face in the afro she has it in. She's dolled up a bit with her dress and earrings. She's got nowhere to go, but she does it to feel perked up for the day. I'm fine with that, but she knows I'm just as fine if she's wearing one of those old nightgowns she has, or in her birthday suit. "You were always passing me by," I hold Kemi's hand and with my other one, I use my finger to trace her facial features. I love every one of them. I gently go over her brows then go to her cheeks that are a lovely rounded shape. I move onto her cheekbones, which sit a bit high. My finger trails down to her jaw and her lips as they curve up in a smile. "But to be fair, I passed you by as well, darlin'." The way we met, and the way we began, is all part of a story that is beyond us and I like to think back on it often. I like to think back on how the Lord made something new out of something broken. ~~~ This technically comes after Grace but can be read alone (and before or after Redemption). As with "Grace", this is an age-gap interracial romance about faith, love, and healing. Forewarning: This story discusses a darker theme that may not be suitable for a younger audience. Although, things are still done in a God-honoring way. Unlike Grace, this story is more of a short story and will likely contain less than 25 chapters. It follows Kemi and Fred, the close friends of Grace and Joe.

Y/N pov: As usual, I was sitting in my room with tears in my eyes from seeing my husband in the arms of other women who were having fun and laughing with him. There are moments when I question what I did to merit my husband's severe treatment. I heard a loud thud from the door and opened it, causing my blood to run cold. He starts talking while keeping his gaze on my face. "You think you are the right person to slap Samantha?I do not recall granting you permission to beat up people in my palace." He looks at me icily with emotionless eyes. "I have the right to slap one of your concubines, of course. I am, after all, the queen of this palace and your wife. He chuckled while examining me from head to toe before saying those words that broke my heart into a million pieces and made me want to turn it into stone right then. "You are nothing more than the daughter of our rival, and if it were not for the palace and my people, I never would have married you in the first place.You are insignificant in comparison to the woman I adore and desired.I would not have married a woman like you if it were not for the throne." I rubbed the tears from my eyes, laughed harshly and sarcastically, and said "A woman like me? After spending the night with other women, who are you to say this? Unlike you, at least I put effort into this marriage.You only cause me sorrow and regret; you have never shown me any concern.You are not even deserving of the titles of king, spouse, or partner." As he spoke, his eyes were laser-like. "When your own parents did not even give a damn about you before sending you to me, why should I?" As he concluded his statement, he grinned. "So, Jeon Jungkook, let us get a divorce and call it quits on this marriage." He looked at me right away, and I could feel his surprise because, after three years of marriage, he never imagined that I would say this. ___________________________________________________ The book is currently being edited.

Nnadia had called her husband over ten times but to no avail. After what seemed like hours, she heard the sound of his car. Few minutes later he entered the living room. To her surprise, he passed right by her without sparing her a glance. She practically ran after him trying to ask about Mikes situation. She came close and tried touching his arm when he roared. "Don't even presume to touch me ever in your life". Dumbfounded, she asked " But why?" " Really?" He asked turning to face her with anger evident in his voice. And the confusion on her face only infuriated him even more. " Are you really going to pretend now? " He asked coming even closer. " Wow! You are such an amazing actress." He said. Clapping his hands. " But let me ask, don't you have one iota of shame in you? What kind of a woman are you anyways? I always knew you never had any feelings for me but still didn't expect you to stoop this low. How could you Nnadia? You pushed your husband out of your room only to bring someone else in his place? Even if you don't have respect or love for me, you should have at least thought about your status as a married woman." Tears trickled down her face for she was hurt beyond words. He turned to leave once more and she tried following. " Oh God! She exclaimed. Abdullah please wait, it's, it's not what you are thinking at all. Please let..." He shouted this time around silencing her. " In the name of Allah please don't speak, i detest your voice. And your face, your face only brings me pain. I'm gladly going to give you your freedom so you can be with him. Just don't let me see your face till then." Nnadia couldn't believe her eyes or ears. She has never seen him this angry before. He got it wrong. How could he even think she would ever give his place to someone like Mike? Earlier today she had thought that they were finally going to be happy. At this moment with his bitter words still echoing in her ears, she really doubted it now.
