The Affair Revenge

Chapter 17

Cami

My head is just throbbing with rage and over exploding memories. My whole body feels so hot like I could just melt from the angry building inside. Eyes burning and unable to stay open from the river of tears coming out. I just held myself there in the corner of my sunroom. I was frozen in place. I couldn’t move an inch. After awhile, I felt my grab loosen up and I was able to make back to my couch and sit down. Trying to understand what had happened. I thought I had made a real friends. I thought I could trust her. She had that whole innocent, warm, welcoming girl act to a T. She just made me look like a fool. I should have known who she was. Sitting outside my house, she was here for something. Mark told me about her. He told me how Eve just got lazy and all she did was cause fights with him all day. She was simply crazy, she even started calling him at work to just yell at him. It be over little things. He says he would forget to make coffee in the morning for her and she would loose her mind.

She was even abusive towards him. He would told me he had to stay at hotels sometimes to just get away from her. He would lie about staying late at work. But that would just be an excuse so he can get a good night rest. She would call about not paying her debts in time. She be so angry with him. she would threaten him. Telling him that when he gets him she’ll teach him a lesson.

When I first met Mark, I didn’t know he was married. He had taken off his ring and he seemed nice. After awhile of texting and hangout. We, you know had s**, we connected so well intimated that it felt so good.But then he got a call from him. And i found his ring in his bag. I was so confuse, i didn’t understand how i got myself into this situation. I was a smart woman, I should have known he was just a player.

But then he explained everything to me. At first, I didn’t believe him. I knew it was just another lie so he can keep getting in my pants. But he just begged and begged for me to listen and forgive him. I couldn’t. I stopped talking to him for awhile.

Then I ran into him again. I was at a regular bougie bar. You know those ones where their belong to club members and most rich business people go to. I had saw him walk in and we made eye contact. Mark let out just a light smile. But all i notice was his eyes, and all the feels come back hard. He walked right pass me and sat right down at the bar. He didn’t even try to talk to me.

I try so hard not to look at him, but every time i look up from my computer. We make eye contact. I would hide quickly as I felt this warm tingling feeling run down my whole body. I couldn’t concentrate on my work at all. My mind was just flooded with old feelings and memories.

So I closed my laptop and walked my ass to him. “You didn’t say hi” I said.“I didn’t want to bother you, I know how important work is to you. Plus, I know the last time we had spoken. I didn’t think you wanted me too.” Swirling his ice in a cup of whiskey

“Well, maybe I was a little harsh. You didn’t let you explain yourself. And you still don’t.But I want you to know I can’t sleep with a married man. It’s just wrong Mark. You would like it if she did it to you.” I placed my hand on his arm. I hope he understands I just wanted a clean and healthy relationship.“You’re right. You’re always right Cami. But I do need to explain it to you. That is why I know you would believe me when I tell, I love you. I never stop thinking about you.” He took both my hands and stared into my eyes with this look. That look just said it all. I don’t know how to explain it but he seemed to be telling the truth. “I think I I I love you, too Mark, but your married. We can’t, I can’t”. I looked down at the ground and took my hands away from his. It felt so good to feel his touch again, but god forbid it, I would not be the other women. I couldn’t do that to someone else.

“Cami, just let me explain, and if after that, if you still don’t have anything to do with me. Even as a friend, I would completely understand. If you truly love me like you say you do, then you’ll hear me out.” Get grabs my arms back up so he can hold my hands again. And that night he went on to tell me everything. He told me how his marriage was falling apart. Long before he met me. He said he had stopped wearing his ring after he asked for a separation from his wife. Of course, she didn’t take it well, but he said he needed to be free from her and her crazy, manipulation, abusiveness. He had gone on to tell me everything she did to him. Mark said at the end of the day all she cared about was money. He said our relationship opened his mind ,open to an whole new world. He went on to express his feelings towards, him and I. I couldn’t hold it in anymore and I just kissed him.After that, we ended up at his hotel and had s** over and over and over again. By the next day, he had told me he was going to his lawyer that afternoon and file for a divorce. Eve didn’t take the news so well. She got possessive after that.But we went on to have a happy and healthy relationship. I was able to see myself marrying this man. I was so proud of him for getting himself out of a very abusive, toxic relationship. I know it most of have been so hard for him. The world would never believe him since he’s a guy. But I believed him, every little detail he told him. I knew he was worth my love.

I was so lost in my head, I didn’t hear Mark entering the house.“ Hey baby, I’m home..are you okay.” He drop him bag on the kitchen floor and kneeled down in front of me.“ Yes I’m fine.” Holding a pillow up to my chest.“Are you sure baby, your eye look like blood. They are stain red. What happened?” Mark cupped my cheeks in his hand. His touch was so warm, I didn’t notice a tear had let out at the touch of his palm.“Baby don’t cry, please.” He said lowly to me. trying to make me feel better. “ I just had a really bad fight with a friend or at least I thought she was my friend. But I don’t know anymore”, I grabbed his hand so he didn’t let go of me. Afraid without his hand I my fall to the ground.“Cami baby, why don’t just carry you to bed and rest? It is already late and tomorrow we can talk about it if you want.” All i did was nod my head at him. With his concern and love, I felt so safe when he took me into his arms. I just lay my head and wedged it as deep as I could into him.

“Just rest baby, tomorrow will be a whole new day.” he kissed my forehead as he lay me down and tucked me into our king-sized bed.

I wake up in the middle of the night to Marks' phone being call consented.“Mark just pick it up, they won’t stop calling you.” I muff in a sleepy voice next to my fiancé's warm body as he holds me half way on top of him. “I’ll just silents my phone baby, go back to sleep. It will be morning soon.” He kisses my forehead hard as I fell soundly back to sleep.

*BUUUZZZZ*

My alarm goes off at 5:45. “Ugh my body hurts why?”My throat to chest seemed to have this heavy core feeling in it. I felt like a block was on me all night.“Got to get up and get ready for work.”I looked around and noticed Mark had already woken up and head probably down in the kitchen.I took a quick shower and got on a mid skirt with a green long sleeve and tucked it in my skirt. I paired them with matching green pumps and curled my hair to a feather framing my face. I had to place a but more make-up under my eyes to cover up the puffy eyes.I headed down the stairs as I finished getting dressed and I smelled the sweet goody scent of waffles.“Mhh smells good in here” I walked into the kitchen seeing Mark turning the stove off and placing some food on two plates.“Well good morning to you too.” Turning around and place both plates on the island.“Thank you Mark” taking a bite of my waffles.“Did you wanna talk about last night” he walk over and gives me kiss.“No no, i’m just gonna let it be” i pull him in for a more intense kiss as he try walk off with a quick kiss. The tingling feeling up and down my body as I feel his lips on mine. And I opened my mouth ever so lightly to allow entrance to his tongue. Mark noticed right away and tongues fights allowed with mine as we continued an in tune kiss.

“Mmhh you taste good with that syrup, but he would be better on your body” licking his lips as he walked back over to the stove to place the dirty dishes in the sink. “Well, before you had fallen asleep I talk to a few people and found a great bakery to do a cake taste this week” eating a slice of bacon.“Ohh thats great. That's one thing off the list. Thank you.” Trying some of my cheesy eggs

We continue to eat my food as i ww small talk about how work as been Marks phone rings while he starts eating his food

“BUZZZ*

“Is that the same number again?” Lending over to see the number calling Mark. But he quickly grabs his phone before i can get a quick look.

*signing softly*

“Yeah, I’ll just see who it is”. I can see his nose scrunching up a bit as he clicks the button to answer the phone.

“Hello?” He walked away from the island to and out of the kitchen. So I can hear him talk but not the person on the phone.

“Yes, this is he. Mmmhh. Okay. Yes thank you. I’ll be there soon thank you” he hungs up and I saw him looking up something in his phone.“Who was it?” He didn’t reply.“Mark, who was on the phone?” Looking a little concerned as he seemed disoriented from the call.“ Ohh umm Bill, something come up on a case and he needs me in right away. So I’m gonna head out.” He grabbed his keys and gives me a quick kiss as he seemed a bit lost.“Okay but remember our appointment at 1:15 with Jamie about the wedding.” I spoke a bit loudly as he rushed out the door.“Yes baby, Love you” slams the door.Okay, that was odd. Something didn’t seem right. Who ever just call Mark, seem to through him completely off.

I pick up my phone and dials a friend number.“Hey Jason, do my favor and look up information on, an Eve Samford. See if there still any connections with Mark.” I asked.“You got it, call you in a few hours with the info.” Jason was a friend who could find anything about anyone. Stuff where a background won’t tell you. If Eve is telling me the truth about Mark lying about something. Then Jason should be able to find something. If not, then there should be some stuff about Eve on there. Someone is lying to me and I don’t who.
