Hi guys! I'm so sorry for the wait! I had finals and graduation but I hope you guys enjoy this chapter!! Let me know what you guys think!

--------------

As I open the door and exit from the cafe, I feel hands wrap around my wrist forcing me to turn around and surprise surprise

There's the devil

Here we go again

---------

Oh no no no, I am NOT doing this again

You hear me! NO

With that thought in my head, I try yanking my arm away from his grip but it's no use as he simply just tightens his hold on me giving me a bored expression

I huff glaring at him as I try to think of another way to escape 

Suddenly, the most perfect idea comes into my head as my eyes widen and I grin evilly at him

Blake stares at me in confusion most likely wondering why I was grinning so wide 

Oh honey, just wait for it

"Why are you smiling-" he asks staring at me weirdly before I cut him off

"HELP SOMEBODY HELP! SEXUAL PREDA-" 

Blakes' eyes widen in fear as he suddenly puts his arm around my mouth looking around frantically at the few pedestrians who have stopped what they have been doing to watch the scene

Ha ha ha 

"I apologize. She's mentally ill. Mother said she will get better once she goes into the mental asylum. A brother can only do so much" Blake announced his eyes hooded in sadness while his voice trembles 

Oh you mother fucker I thought as my eyes widen at his claim

 I bit his hand causing him to frantically move it and stare at me in shock as I simply glare at him crossing my arms against my chest

I look around and see people nodding their heads in sympathy towards Blake and looking at me in pity as they walk away whispering

Really people!?  Ya'll that easy to fool?!

Suddenly, I feel a hand on my arm and turn to see an older woman holding her hand over heart as she looks at me concerningly 

"Child..get help, it's not too late. Bless you"

I stare at her astonished as I whiplash my head towards Blake who was staring at the interaction in complete amusement 

I narrow my eyes on him as I see him biting his lip to conceal his smile 

I turn my head back to the lady as I take a deep breath

"I'm not ill," I said giving her a tight-lipped smile at her only for her to shake her head disapprovingly and walk away giving me one last pitiful look

You're fucking dead Blake 

I march my way to Blake who was still standing there cockily, leaning against the wall as his hands were crossed against his chest

"WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU?!" I scream poking him on his chest as I stare at him angrily

"What's the matter with me?" He asked raising his right eyebrow, "You're the one who started it" he said nonchalantly rising his shoulders up until he leans closer to my face his grey eyes searching mine, "I ended it"

"You're the one who can't take a damn hint. Go home to your wife" I scowl 

His face suddenly turns serious 

"You don't know what you are talking about" He growled his eyes turning near black as he clenches his jaw clearly angry

Well, I'm angry too asshole

"Your friend told me everything I needed to know" I spit

He let out a humorless laugh, "Right, because that's what you do right? Believe anyone else besides me. Someone tells you the smallest thing and you believe them immediately because I'm a fucking prick right? I'm the fucking bad guy right Angela?" Blake says menacingly glaring me down 

"Oh please enlighten me, Blake. How would you react if you found out I had a husband?! Stop trying to twist this" I scream feeling my adrenaline pumping

"You know how I would act?" He asked taking a threatening step forward  causing me to take a step back

I guess he didn't like it all that much considering next thing I know his hands are wrapped around my waist slamming me onto the waist

'I'd fucking ask you before assuming shit" he spat 

"I DID ASK YOU" 

"You asked but you didn't listen so this time, fucking listen" he ordered angrily 

I glare at him but keep myself shut 

"She is not my wife," He said looking me in the eyes

I stared at him in confusion

"but you-"

"She is my ex-wife" he cut me off watching my reaction

Ex wife?

"I met her in New York City. She was shooting and I was in conferences. We started talking and formed a relationship. Little by little, I fell for her. I asked her to marry me at 19" he stopped and let out a humorless laugh shaking his head, "I was stupid, I know. But I thought I found true love. After a few months, I noticed she was never home, constantly having somewhere to be. Long story short, she was cheating on me" He said his eyes clouded with anger

I kept silent listening to his story taking everything in

"She never wanted me. She wanted my money. That became clear soon when I told her I wanted a divorce and her only question concerned money" he said with hatred laced in his voice

I place my hand on his arm in comfort as his eyes connect with mine

He grabs my hand and interlaces our fingers together staring at them 

"I realized I never loved her. I thought I did"

"What makes you think you didn't love her?" I asked softly 

He looked up at me and then back to our joined hands as he squeezed my hand looking at me in the eyes

"Because she never could make me feel the way you do"  

My breath gets caught in my throat as I feel my cheeks blossom 

Blake leans towards me leaving a lingering kiss on my cheek as his other hand caresses my cheek 

"Mommy, why is the brother kissing his sister?" 

Blake and I's head snap to the voice to see a small boy staring at us in confusion as his mother looks at us in disgust before dragging her child away muttering some incoherent sentences

Blake and I stare at each other before letting out a roar of laughter
