It's a hot day and I hate my wife.

     We're playing Scrabble. That's how bad it is. I'm 32 years old, it's a blistering hot Sunday afternoon and all I can think of to do with my life is to play Scrabble.

     I should be out, doing exercise, spending money, meeting people. I don't think I've spoken to anyone except my wife since Thursday morning. On Thursday morning I spoke to the milkman.

     My letters are crap.

     I play, appropriately, BEGIN. With the N on the little pink star. Twenty-two points.

     I watch my wife's smug expression as she rearranges her letters. Clack, clack, clack. I hate her. If she wasn't around, I'd be doing something interesting right now. I'd be climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. I'd be starring in the latest Hollywood blockbuster. I'd be sailing the Vendee Globe on a 60-foot clipper called the New Horizons - I don't know, but I'd be doing something.

     She plays JINXED, with the J on a double-letter score. 30 points. She's beating me already. Maybe I should kill her.

Ex-Husband Turned Boss

35 parts Complete

[This story will become free on 3 January 2025] Down-on-her-luck Aubrey gets the job offer of a lifetime, with one catch: her ex-husband is her new boss. *** Aubrey Whitlock's life is turned upside down after her divorce, leaving her an unemployed, broke, and single 29-year-old. A chance meeting with her ex throws her for a loop again when he makes her an offer: come work with him as his assistant. Now a self-made billionaire, Bryce Roberts is just as infuriating-and good-looking-as he was the first time around. Their marriage was disastrous, but their chemistry is stronger than ever. Will they ever mend their relationship, or will it be nothing more than a heated game of seduction? And what will happen when Bryce discovers the secrets Aubrey has been keeping from him after all this time?
