Chapter 1
Teresa's POV. I sighed as I looked at the door, today makes it the 3rd day since I haven't seen my husband. He always did this. He disappeared and appeared like that was his super power. It has become tiring, trying to draw him back to the surface everytime he is about to drown. And what pains me most is that he always wasn't this way. I knew him way back from college, he was the guy I had a crush on. A typical bad boy and good girl combination. We became good friends and before I knew it, We found ourselves on an altar, I and Kingdom. “You're still up?” The cold, emotionless voice snapped me out of my thoughts and I looked at the door. Kingdom walked into the house, he looked as breathtaking as ever but that heart pounding feeling I once felt when he always walked into a room wasn't there. “I was waiting for you to come home but I had this feeling you might not be coming home today.” I said, a bite in my word as kingdom hummed at me, he didn't waste time as he stumbled upstairs, in a drunMichel stupor. I shook my head as I ran my fingers through my hair, I looked up the stairs where Kingdom had disappeared up to. I was tempted to follow him but I knew he couldn't stand my presence in this state. I knew that all too well but I wanted to fix this bug between us. I wanted our marriage to be the way it once was. "Can't you cook anything in this house? I'm so hungry” Kingdom stumbled down the stairs running his fingers through his hair as he buttoned up his shirt, it looked as if he was going out…again. “I did cook something but you didn't come back early and I had already stuffed it back into the fridge.” I said, looking away from him. I felt pity whenever I would look at him. The man he was once almost non-existent. Except from the dull sparkle in his eyes, he was totally a different person. “You're so useless, you're the one who convinced me into this marriage and now you want to kill me in this marriage. Heck no” Kingdom shouted as he grabbed his car key as he walked out of the room, he shut the door behind him with a thud causing me to flinch. I had convinced him into marrying me? Where was the man who was once obsessed with me? I didn't like feeling like this. As I stumbled into bed, I didn't want anything more than to sleep to escape from this world. I'm tired. Exhausted was too little of a word to explain how tired I felt. The next morning, I woke up to the ringing of my alarm, as I slammed the alarm off. I stood up and I walked to the window to open the blinds, I saw Kingdom car parked downstairs. I didn't know whether to greet him or to forget about it. Anytime I tried acting like a good wife or at least showing some feelings towards him, I just got the opposite of what I offered. I heard a knock outside my door and I couldn't help but frown, kingdom would never come knock on my door. As I opened the door, I was surprised to see a woman standing in front of me, her hand on her waist, I raised a brow up at her as she gave me a smile. A smile that looked more fake than her cheek bone. “You must be Kingdom's wife, I am hungry and would you like to make me breakfast?” the lady said and I couldn't help but laugh out loud. Was this a new torture method from kingdom? “Excuse me, but I didn't know who you are and what you're doing here but you don't have any right whatsoever to ask me for breakfast in my house” I said, my laughter slipping out just as fast as it came. “I'm Ciara, I'm the lady who feeds your husband and satisfies his s****l needs. Since his so-called wife can't do that” Ciara said with an eyes roll. I felt a stab in my heart at the fact that he had been cheating on me when I only ever wanted us to work out. So this lady was either a prostitute or Kingdom’s lover. And the knife that already existed in my heart dug deeper at the thought that he would allow another woman into our matrimonial home and even allow her to come to our room to ask me to prepare breakfast for her. “I don't care who you are. If kingdom brought you here then go ask him for breakfast and do not come to me.” I glared at her as I walked into my room slamming the door shut in her face. I couldn't believe what was happening, had it gotten to this extent? Was I that bad of a person to him? I was in pain. Pain that my heart couldn't fathom. I quickly showered as I threw in something casual, I wasn't in the mood for anything fancy or makeup, grabbing my purse and car keys I stomped out of the house, as I passed the living room. kingdom was busy kissing Ciara and he didn't even look at me. When did my kind loving husband turn into this monster? He was cheating on me, right under our matrimonial home.
