Evan
When I entered my room, I had to blink twice
to check if the scene in front of me was my
imagination or reality.
Scarlet Ray, or should I say Scarlet Parker was
standing in front of me in a silk negligee. The
girl who never wear anything revealing or ti-ght
was wearing a red, silk negligee that hu-gged
all her curves and ended just below her bu-tt.
Her hair was ruffled in a se-xy manner and her
smooth, long legs were visible to tease me.
Everything about her screamed perfection and
the urge to feel her soft body against mine
was empowering me.
Both of us kept standing in a trance until she
realised her lack of clothing and whispered,
“Shit.”
She leaned down to pick the robe from the bed
and unknowingly, I got a peek of her cleavage.
My pa-nts suddenly felt ti-ght because of the
mouth-watering sight and I let out a muffled
Gr0-n.
“fu-ck,” I whispered, rushing towards the
bathroom before she could see her effect on
me. “I have to pee,” I said behind me and
closed the door with a thud.
When I had finally taken a cold shower and
calmed a certain part of my body, I made my
way back to the room. Disappointment filled
me when I saw that she had covered herself
with the robe and her ba-re legs were now
un-der the blanket.
“Helena bought me this.” she said, as if
defending herself.
“Of course she did.” I rolled my eyes. Helena
knew what she was doing by manipulating my
innocent wife into seducing me.
“How is the preparation going?” I asked her to
change the uncomfortable topic.
“Great,” she replied. My eyes darted to her hair
that were still ruffled, as if someone had run
his fingers throu-ghthem.
“So you really won’t come?” she asked,
disappointment dripping from her voice.
“No,” I said and dried my hair with the towel.
When I opened my eyes, I found her eyes on
my torso where the shirt had ridden up during
the drying. My trousers were hanging low and
the V of my abdomen was visible. I smi-rked
on seeing her slightly opened mouth and
flushed cheeks. She looked so cute yet so
seductive at the same time.
“Good night,” she said and then lay down to
sleep.
“Good night,” I said and sat down in front of
my desk to do some work.
I had few an-alysis to read and few emails to
respond. My back was already hurting because
of sitting straight the whole day so I shifted to
the bed.
My eyes darted from time to time to Scarlet’s
sleeping figure. Trying my best to ignore her, I
kept doing my work. Since she had came in
my life, I had been losing my focus on work.
Working from day to night was never difficult
but now, seeing her sleeping peacefully makes
me want to sleep too.
Despite every part of me telling me to lay
down, I kept my focus on the laptop but with
every p@$$ing minute, it became ha-rder for me
to sit upright. So after almost one hour, I put
the laptop aside, turned off the lights and lay
down beside her.
She was laying on her side, her face towards
me. Some of her silky locks were blocking her
face from my sight. Extending my hand, I
tucked the hair behind her ear.
Her eyes were closed and her long lashes were
resting on her cheekbones. She had amazing
skin and flawless face, except a very small
beauty mark on her jaw. Her li-ps were set into
a cute pout and it caused me to let out a
small chuckle.
“What will I do with you?” I whispered and
leaned towards her to place a small kizz on
her cheeks. My pounding heart made me feel
like I was stealing something or doing
something illegal.
When I pulled apart, she shifted in her place
and extended her hand to rest it on me but it
didn’t reach me. To help her, I scooted closer
to her and rested her arm back on my wa-ist,
p-ulling the blanket over both of us.
Sleep soon overpowered me and I closed my
eyes, relishing in the feeling of her arm over
my stomach.
……….
She was here with me, on this very bed. Lying
on top of her, I was kizzing her p@$$ionately.
This stunning girl lying ba-re un-der me makes me
feel things I haven’t felt before. All the emotions
buried de-ep somewhere resurfaces whenever I
am with her.
“Just don’t…. Ever…. Stop.” Her breathless
voice came and I kizzed her ha-rder. My mouth
travelled south to her delicate ne-ck and I
peppered small kizzes down to her collar
bones.
For a brief moment, I raised my head and
stared at the girl that makes my heart ache for
more. Her dark blonde hair was sprawled
against the white sheets and her blue eyes were
filled with desi-re.
“Marry me,” I whispered.
Her eyes wide-ned and the expression of shock
filled her face. “What the fu-ck Evan! Are you
proposing me during se-x?” she screamed at me
with surprise and confusion.
“Yes Eliza, I am. I want you and not just
physically.” I said and kizzed her delicious
mouth.
“What if I say no?” she said with a mischievous
smile playing on her face.
I parted from her and lay on my back beside
her. “Then I’ll marry someone else.” I said.
She gr-unted angrily and the next thing I know,
she was straddling me. “I’ll be the first and last
girl in your life, Evan.” she said as she leaned
down to capture my li-ps, positioning herself
against me down there.
I closed my eyes and felt her mouth move
from my li-ps down, to my ne-ck, and then my
che-st, still going down.
“Eliza,” I shouted her name and rose to sitting
position. The bright light in the room turned
into terrifying darkness. I looked around myself
and found Scarlet sleeping peacefully. My eyes
moved to the clock and it was just 5 in the
morning.
This day, five years ago, I lost the love of my
life and a viscious cycle of misery and torment
started. I wish I could go back in time and
stop her from leaving me. I wish I could trade
her life for mine and save her.
I lay back and struggled to sleep again but all
in vain. I kept tossing and turning restlessly on
the bed until when at 7, I finally moved out of
bed and went into the bathroom to take a
shower.
After spending an adequate amount of time in
the bathroom, I changed into a casual clothes
and walked out. My eyes moved to Scarlet
who was now sitting on the bed, stretching her
limbs.
Walking inside the closet, I picked up a dark
blue suit. I was still in the closet when Scarlet
walked inside and leaned against the door of
the closet.
“Are you leaving?” she asked in sleepy voice.
“Yes, I won’t be back tonight probably.” I said.
I was planning on booking a hotel room and
spending the night there because I knew I
would be in a miserable state the whole day. I
didn’t want her to see me in my moment of
weakness.
“Evan,” she called my name and I lifted my
head to look at her. She looked stunning in
that gown, with her hair messy and her eyes
sleepy. “Please, try to join the party. It would
mean a lot to her.”
“I don’t want to give anyone false hopes.” I
said honestly and proceeded to select a tie. “I
won’t come.”
Disappointment filled her brown eyes as she
stared at me with hope that I might change my
mind. When I didn’t speak anything for a long
moment, she sighed defeatedly and closed the
door behind her.

Scarlet
After giving one last look to all the
arrangements, I went back to our room to
change into something appropriate for the
party. A royal blue, off-the-shoulder, knee-
length dress of mine felt like the perfect outfit
for a children’s party so I changed into it and
let my hair loose. Applying some light makeup
on my face, I sli-pped into my sandals and
made my way downstairs.
The main hall of the house was all decorated
in pink and black, two favorite colors of Cara.
The cake had arrived from my bakery, which
was in the shape of Mickey mouse, a cartoon
which she watches whole day long. All her
playschool friends were invited, along with their
mothers. To entertain the kids, I had booked a
magician.
“Everything is perfect.” Liam said to me but it
didn’t help that I was stressing out. It was
Cara’s first birthday party and I wanted
everything to be perfect.
“Catheryn called. They are around the block.”
Helena announced and everyone gained their
positions. Liam turned off the lights and
darkness pravailed in the hall.
Few minutes have p@$$ed when the screeching
sound of a car came from outside. Two soft
footsteps entered throu-ghthe door and that’s
when the lights turned on.
“Happy Birthday.” We all screamed in unison
and Cara’s face paled at first. It took her a
minute to realise what was happening and
when she finally did, a hu-ge smile broke on
her li-ps.
She looked slightly intimidated by the crowd
so when her eyes finally met mine, she came
running towards me and wrapped her small
arms around my legs.
“Happy birthday sweetheart,” I said and
kneeled in front of her to hu-g her properly.
“Did you like the surprise?”
“Yes, I love it.” she giggled, still hu-gging me.
She slowly parted for a moment and then
looked around. “Where is Daddy?” she asked
in her innocent voice.
I didn’t have courage to tell her that her father
refused to attend her birthday so despite every
sane part of my mind telling me not to, I lied,
“He will come soon. He had some work.”
“Okay,” she said.
“Come on, let’s get you dressed.” I said and
took her to her room where I had already put
aside a new dress for her. It was a fluffy pink
frock with matching sandals. Excitedly, she
changed into the frock and then I styled her
hair in Br@ids. She looked certainly the cutest
child ever, which was not fair since all the
children are equally cute. But she was special
to me.
When we went outside, the magic show had
started. Cara rushed to all the kids lined up
around the magician and started clapping
whenever he did any trick. Sadness filled me
on realising that she would soon notice that
Evan wasn’t joining her party and it would ruin
her happy mood.
“I am worried for him.” I heard Catheryn’s voice
beside me. “This day is always very ha-rd on
him.”
“I’m more worried for Cara. She doesn’t
un-derstand Evan’s justification for his actions.”
I said, looking at her happy state.
“You are becoming a full time mother, Scarlet.”
she chuckled on hearing my answer. “You care
for her just like Eliza would have done.”
I blus-hed at her praise and returned it with a
smile. “I just hope Evan un-derstand some day
that it’s time move on.”
“One can hope,” she muttered.
After the magician’s performance was over, it
was time to cut the cake. Liam was the one
who made this cake because I was busy and
he had done a great job. Cara’s grin wide-ned
on seeing the cake.
“Come on, cut the cake,” I stood behind her
with the knife in my hand.
“We should wait for Daddy,” she said with a
pout and my own smile evaporated.
“I think he is stuck in some work.” I lied again
because I had no idea what else to say. “We
should cut the cake and save some from him.”
“Okay,” she nodded and then proceeded to cut
the cake. Her hands wobbled as she cut the
cake messily and I moved forwards to help
her. Everybody clapped around us and it made
Cara’s eyes brighten with happiness. For a girl
who had never celeBr@ted her birthday, it was a
big thing.
While Kelly served the cake in plates, Cara
rushed to open her gifts. All her friends
gathered around her as she opened all the
gifts one by one, her face brimming with
excitement.
Leaving her to celeBr@te, I went to check the
food corner and stopped when I found Liam
and Helena talking there. Helena was
ramblings on and on about something while
Liam was gaping like a person looking at their
high-school crush. When he noticed me
standing there, I winked at him and he blus-hed
ha-rd in return. Not wanting to disturb them, I
went back to Cara and help her open the gifts.
One by one, people started to leave and Cara’s
gaze remained fixated on the door. Everytime
the door opened, her face brightened with
hope but not finding her father there, her mouth
formed a frown.
I couldn’t see her disappointed anymore so I
gathered all the courage and decided to tell
her the truth. Slowly, with hesitation, I walked
towards the couch where she was sitting, her
gaze focused on the door.
I sat beside her, with my body turned towards
her. “Cara, I nee-d to tell you something.”
“Yes, mama.” she focused her attention on me.
“Baby, actually,” I took a long pause to prepare
myself for her sad reaction. “Daddy couldn’t—”
“Cara,” My words got caught in my throat when
I heard Evan’s voice. Both Cara and I looked
towards the source of the voice and found
Evan standing at some distance, staring at her.
“Happy birthday.”
Hearing this, Cara jumped off the couch and
rushed towards him to hu-g him. He leaned
forwards and picked her up in his arms,
holding her close in a ti-ght hu-g.
“You finally came,” I whispered with a smile on
my face.
He nodded and rested his head on top of
Cara’s head. “I had to,” he mouthed.
……….
After tucking Cara in her bed and making sure
she was asleep, I stood up quietly and made
my way to the door when suddenly, I heard her
whisper. “Mama.”
“Yes,” I answered.
“Thank you.” she whispered with a smile on
her face and then yawned cutely. “I loved the
party.”
“The plea-sure is all mine.” I replied and turned
off the lights.
With silent steps, I made my way to my room.
Throu-ghthe half-opened door, I peeked inside
and found Evan sitting silently on the bed. He
was holding Eliza’s photoframe in his hand and
there was a hint of moisture in his beautiful
eyes.
When he found me coming inside, he
immediately put the frame back and shifted his
focus to the file in his hands.
Gulping, I stepped inside the room. It was
killing me to see him this sad and I was
willing to do anything that would relieve his
pain. Quietly, I walked towards him. Jumping
on the bed, I scooted closer to him.
“What are you doing?” he asked in irritation
when he found my attention on him.
“Do you nee-d a hu-g?” I asked.
A frown appeared on his forehead after which
he gritted, “No. Thanks.” And then he shifted
his attention back to the file. But I knew his
focus was somewhere else, judging by the fact
that the file was upside down.
“What the fu-ck are you doing?” he snarled
when I moved closer to him and wrapped my
arms around his torso, in a way that we both
ended up in a very uncomfortable hu-g.
“Scarlet—”
“It’s okay, Evan. You will be okay, I promise.
You did a good deed today and Eliza will be
proud of you.” I muttered as I kept my arms
around his torso, despite his obvious
reluctancy.
“Leave me,” he said but his voice was lower
this time.
“You might not nee-d this hu-g but I do, to make
sure you are fine.” I said.
After few seconds, his hesitation decrea-sed
and he returned the hu-g by wrapping his arms
around my wa-ist. I felt him rest his head on
the crook of my ne-ck, his breath creating
tingles inside my stomach.
“I don’t think anything will be okay,” I heard
him mumble softly. His body limped suddenly,
as if he was tired of being so rigid day to
night and he nee-ded someone to take care of
him.
I moved my hands to his silky soft hair and
m@$$aged his scalp gently in soothing manner.
“You will be, I can sense it.”
He chuckled against my skin. “You are
something else, Scarlet.” he said and pulled
away, the loss of his warm body making me
cold.
I shrugged before lying on the bed.
Surprisingly, he kept the files away and turned
off the lights, instead of working until late
night. He cozied himself un-der the blanket,
with our faces facing each other. P@$$ing him
an @$$uring smile, I closed my eyes and
waited for sleep to overcome me.
