"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.

"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:

Y/N pov: I was sitting in my room as always while my eyes were filled with tears of sorrowness after seeing my husband in the arms of other women who was laughing and enjoying themselves with him Sometimes I think what I have done to deserve this harsh treatment from my husband Blood ran cold in my veins as I hear a loud thud from the door suddenly and I opened the door His eyes fixed on my face as he begins speaking "Who do you think you're to slap Samantha?I don't remember giving you the right to slap anyone around my palace." His eyes hold no emotions as he look coldly at me "Well surely, I have right to slap one of your concubines. Afterall I'm your wife, the queen of this palace." He chuckled as he eyed me from top to bottom and then said those words which shattered my heart into million pieces and I felt like I want to turn my heart into stone at that very moment. "You're no one other than our rivals daughter and I would have never ever married you in the first place if it isn't for the palace and my people.You're nothing compared to the woman I love, the woman I wanted to have.If it wasn't due to the throne then I would have never married a woman like you." I laughed sarcastically and harshly rubbed the tears under my eyes and said "Woman like me? Who are you to say this after spending night with other women. Atleast I worked for this marriage not like you.You never ever cared about me,you only give me pain and regret.You're not even worthy to have the title of a husband,a partner and a king." His eyes pierced into me as he said "Why should I care about you when you're own parents didn't even cared about you before sending to me" He smirked as he ended His sentence "Then let's divorce and end this marriage, Jeon Jungkook" He looked at me instantly and I can feel the shock because he never thought I would said this after 3 years of our marriage. _____________________________________________________

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.

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!

"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?
