Introduction
"I hope it is something I have always wanted," I said, the eagerness in my voice.
I made my way upstairs to my room. I had gotten close to my room when I heard some weird noises. I began to walk slowly, thinking my sister was in bed with one of her numerous lovers. It was no surprise to me, as this was not the first time, so I didn't have any issues barging in since I knew my sister didn't care one bit. I held the handle to my door as I pushed it further, entering with speed in an attempt to surprise my sister.
"Jasm-" the complete words never left my mouth, as the glass cup I was holding fell to the ground.
I stood frozen in the doorway, my heart shattering into a million pieces. My eyes were fixed on the unthinkable scene before me.
My husband, lying in my bed, wrapped in the hands of my sister.
How could they? On my wedding night? In my bed?
"I gave you everything Raymond! My time, my emotions, even my dignity, and this is how you repay me back?" I voiced at him, as I looked at him with disdain.
"And you!" I turned to the wretched being I called a sister. "I took care of you, gave you everything you ever asked for and this is what you do to me?"
I looked over at the two of them on my bed, still naked, cowering in shame.
Adrianna Yvonne's world is turned upside down when she walks in on her husband and sister in a compromising position on her wedding night.
The betrayal cuts deep, and Adrianna finds herself reeling from the shock. In a desperate attempt to escape the pain, she flees to a nearby club, where she drowns her sorrows in alcohol and loses herself in the music. In her vulnerable state, she meets a mysterious stranger, and, fueled by pain and recklessness, they share a one night stand.
However, the consequences of her actions become even more complicated when Adrianna discovers that the stranger she slept with is her husband's elder brother...
Chapter 1
ADRIANNA
"You know I love you right?" Raymond said to me as he cupped my face with both hands.
I felt so happy to hear those words from him, those reassuring words before our wedding. Of course I knew he loved me, we had been together for two years and he had been the sweetest ever since.
"Are you sure Ray Ray?" I asked him, even though I already knew the answer to that question.
"Definitely," he responded to me with his reassuring smile that seemed to always take my burdens away.
I sighed as I turned to walk towards the direction of the mirror that was in my room. I stood before the mirror, admiring myself. I was dressed in a shiny yellow dress, embellished with beautiful rhinestones and nice black heels, that went so well with my dress. I had always hated the idea of wearing a white dress during the wedding, so I opted to go for a shiny, beautiful yellow dress that was also my favorite color.
The mirror before me, revealed a radiant soul, with a glow that shone from within, as I gazed lovingly at my reflection, lost in the depths of my own eyes. From the corner of my eyes, I could see Raymond walking towards me, with a light grin on his face.
"You look really gorgeous tonight babe, I can't wait to finally make you mine," he said to me, as he placed his right hand on my waist, spinning me around to face him.
I giggled at his words, wondering what I did to deserve the greatest man that ever lived.
Raymond and I met three years ago, at a small gathering led by my friends. Apparently, he had been invited by one of my friends and he had decided to actually attend. At first, I never paid him any attention, because I rarely liked to make new friends or liked to even talk to people. I had not even noticed he was there, until he walked up to me with two drinks in his hands.
"Hey, may I have a seat next to you?" he asked, as he looked at me and also looked at the empty chair beside me.
I was so close to letting him know that I was really not interested in talking to him, but I decided against it.
"Yea sure," I said, giving him a cold reply.
"Maybe if I give him a cold shoulder, he will eventually leave me alone," I thought inwardly.
"Here, I got this for you," he said to me as he stretched one of his hands that held a glass of wine.
"No, thank you," I replied immediately, still giving him the cold reply and avoiding every bit of conversation with him.
"And why is that?" he went further to ask, as he looked at me with a questioning gaze.
I was already getting fed up with the questions, but I decided to keep my cool and not overreact or walk away.
"Only God knows what you have added to that drink," I said as I rolled my eyes, not even wanting to keep this conversation going, when I heard a laugh.
I looked at him with curious eyes, and he was laughing. I was beginning to question what was so funny, that was making him laugh. What was making him laugh? Did I say something funny, that I did not know about?
At that moment, I stood up immediately and attempted to walk away from him, when I felt a hand grab me by my elbow, pulling me back. I gasped at the disrespect of this man.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" I asked out of anger as I forcefully snatched my hand from his grasp.
I took a step back, my chest heaving with anger. "Don't you ever touch me again,", I hissed, my voice low and menacing. I could feel my heart racing with adrenaline, my mind racing with the audacity of his actions.
"Whoa whoa whoa! Calm down! I am so sorry, I didn't mean to get you all worked up, my apologies,", he replied almost immediately as he dropped the glass of wine he was holding on the table.
"I am really sorry, please forgive my manners-"
"Adrianna,", I responded as I immediately realized he was asking me about my name.
He smiled almost instantly, after I told him my name. "Alright Adrianna, My name's Raymond," he said, as he took a seat, urging me to do the same, as he pulled a chair for me.
I shot him a glance, rolled my eyes, and sat down in the chair he had offered, folding my arms across my chest.
Truth be told, now that I look at him, he didn't look bad. He had a very well defined chiseled jaw, bright and captivating brown eyes that looked so vibrant and alive. He had golden brown hair that was styled and gelled to perfection which gave him a very good fitting. He had to be around five foot nine, contradicting my little height of just five foot six.
"So, are you done staring?" he asked me a question, making me instantly blush and embarrassed. I had totally forgotten I was in my thoughts and was also staring at him. He kept looking at me, grinning from ear to ear as if I was some funny clown star, making a joke.
"It's okay," he said to me, giving me a reassuring smile, after he saw I was becoming more embarrassed and I started using my hands to cover my face in shame.
Weirdly enough, I was actually feeling attracted to him already, his smile seemed to calm my raging soul and make it peaceful, his smile was so reassuring.
Raymond's soft touch brought me back to reality, I had not even noticed that I had zoned out for that long.
"Is everything alright baby? You looked so lost," he asked me, with a very worried look.
"oh yes I am fine love, I just remembered the first time we met and the little argument we had. It was one hell of an argument," I replied to him as I giggled, remembering the incident that happened over again.
He grinned as he cupped my face with his hands, giving me a kiss that seemed to take my breath away "Yea baby, I remember, it was a very eventful moment, now let's prepare to spend the rest of our lives together," he said as he released me from his grip and walked out of the room.
"See you at the wedding venue my future wife, or should I say my wife?" he voiced as he finally walked out of the room, and I could no longer see him.
My ears twitched at those particular words, I was sure my ears were red and hot at this very moment. I spun myself around leaping for joy as I anticipated the best moments of my life in a few hours.

Only then did panic flood his eyes as he begged me to stay.
When his calls bombarded my phone later that night, it wasn't me who answered, but my new boyfriend Julian.
"Don't you know," Julian chuckled into the receiver, "that a proper ex-boyfriend should be as quiet as the dead?"
George seethed through gritted teeth: "Put her on the phone!"
"I'm afraid that's impossible."
Julian dropped a gentle kiss on my sleeping form nestled against him. "She's exhausted. She just fell asleep."

Veyren Ashford is ruthless, powerful, and dangerously beautiful — a veteran Player with blood on his hands and secrets in his soul. He says attachment will get me killed. He says love is a weakness the Game always punishes.

In a world where gods gamble with mortal lives, monsters hunt from the shadows, and desire may be the deadliest weakness of all, I have only one goal:
Survive long enough to cross the board.
