*TESSA* Declan chuckled showing off his perfect set of white teeth. He looked so handsome right now. “You don’t smell nice.”He announced. Ouch. I slowly sniffed my arms. He was right and I felt embarrassed. “I’ll go home and take a shower.” “The bidding starts by 9 and we should have gotten

*TESSA* Declan cleared his throat and moved backwards. “You…you should take off my shirt and put on your clothes.I’ll try to get Stella to leave and then I’ll be waiting for you in my car.Don’t keep me waiting.We’re already running late.”He warned and walked away. I quickly changed into my clothe

*TESSA* If confused was a person.That would be me. My so called husband didn’t contact me for a whole week. The last time we spoke was when he dropped me off at the front of my house…he said he would call me later. What does later mean to him? If I had known this was how he would be,I wouldn’t
