Mari Kristine
Today's a great day! I've gone shopping with my best friend, Fae Carmona Verrier and we are now heading our way out of the mall. I just bought two movie tickets tonight for me and my boyfriend, Alexander Harisson, to celebrate our anniversary in advance.
And of course, a black Rolex Oyster Perpetual 41 watch–the biggest of the Oyster Perpetual series which I am planning to give as a surprise gift to him.
We have planned to go out for a date the next day. And, we will eventually dine in a luxury restaurant they own for our dinner later. I am optimistic that Alexander will like my present since he was a Rolex watch fan and had a good collection for Rolex items.
This is my first time buying him a gift so I am wishing that he will be happy with it. I just found out that he has no Oyster Perpetual series in his Rolex watch collection.
Tomorrow, we'll be celebrating our seventh anniversary. And with that, I am hoping that Alexander will be proposing to me sooner or later. He is already twenty-six years old, the same age as mine. We are not getting any younger anymore.
"Which do you think fits better to me, babe?" I heard a woman's irritating small voice from a nearby distance.
"You should try them first, sweetheart." A familiar man's voice answered the lady's question.
Mhm wait... that voice!
It just sounds so familiar. Who was it again?
Ah! It's Alex's. Alex... What? Uh no!
Hell, it is definitely not him. He said he's gone hanging out with the boys. His friends even confirmed he was at the casino this morning.
Both of my feet have urged me to stop. I stopped and my heart skipped rapidly, nervous of something I don't even know the reason for.
I just wanted to stay and look back to where the woman is. I can't see them. It's just, maybe this is just a shopping addiction thing. Uh... maybe I need to shop for a dress?
"Hey, Mari! What's taking you so long to walk?" Fae asked then she began to frown then she rolled her eyes.
"Hey you! Mari! Why did you stop?" Fae asked me again, irritated before she walked near me.
Her face, confused of what's going on. Then, she looked at the boutique near us. Fae nodded then laughed instantly.
"Oh right! I get it, you want to buy some dresses for tomorrow's event? Let's go!" She excitedly exclaimed.
Before I could even respond to her question, she smiled at me then held both of my hands before pulling me inside the clothes store.
We started picking dresses and trying them on. I saw a black dress adorned with sequins and pearls on its hem in the corner on the left side. It was just so beautiful and elegant, perfectly fine for my date!
I was extremely impressed with the design of the dress. I've seen numerous dresses and designs but this one is way too simple yet it shouts elegance.
I excitedly cheered out of amazement, "Fae! Come here! This is so pretty stunning. Wow! "
My best friend brought the dress she just picked back to its place before she turned her gaze to me who is now smiling from ear to ear.
"What's with that smile? Looks like you've already found one." She asked while walking towards me.
I pulled her then we both walked near the dress I was talking about earlier. The sales assistant followed us.
I walked nearer the mannequin that was dressed with the dress I was captivated with and showed her the dress I am willing to buy.
"Here! This looks so good." I said while praising the dress that is in front of us.
"Yeah, definitely." Fae agreed and held the fabric to examine it better.
"The price will say it all." I laughed at her.
She is a picky and practical one, I know. Above all, she can tell whether to buy or not just by looking at the price tag of anything she buys.
She smiled at me before she said, "The fabric is made out of the highest quality threads and the stitches looks like it is sewed by a machine but is actually made by hand. The tailor is definitely a professional in this field. In such a case, the one who created this might have paid great patience, labor and time in order for the dress to be done."
I nodded at her as she explained to me the things she found out about the dress. But, I still doubt she will allow me to buy the dress. Not unless she sees the price tag and she will decide.
Chestel Fae is a great tailor too. She does it whenever she is bored. And, she can also knit and is also currently taking workshops for traditional fabric weaving.
"Yes, Ma'am. This is actually one of our best dresses here made by a famous tailor in Europe. I can guarantee you that the price is worth your money." The lady assisting us butted in while smiling from ear to ear. At least she's somewhat approachable.
"Oh look! There's embroidery at its hem too. This dress is so lovely, Mari. I won't mind the price if I were to buy this. This is so pretty, I think I'm in love with the dress now. Go for it, girl!" Fae praised the dress dramatically.
Oh well, I won't mind too. The dress according to her is really worth a luxurious price. I can see it by myself though and that's enough actually.
"Oh, what a lovely dress!" Someone exclaimed from behind.
Looks like someone is planning to steal this dress away from me. Hell, no way!
"What an irritating small voice it is!" I blurted out.
Suddenly, Fae and the lady assistant were pushed and a lady came in front of me with her right eyebrow arched like a bent stencil.
"What did you say?" The lady asked me.
"Nothing. I just thought I heard a kid from behind. I hate kids." I answered her, smiling sarcastically.
"What a rude woman you are!" Fae madly confronted her as she pulled the woman to face her.
It made a commotion and we caught the attention of the people buying from the same shop. What a big scandal it is!
"Don't dare touch me like that!" The woman angrily reacted then she raised her hands.
Before she was able to slap Fae, my friend managed to grip her wrist tightly. Fae pushed her off. The woman however caught the hem of the dress tearing a bit of it off the stitches. The saleswoman and I were both shocked by what happened.
"What the hell did you just do to the dress!" I angrily shouted at the witch slammed on the floor.
"Ma'am, that dress is our only stock here and it cost a hundred bucks! The owner will ask me for ten thousand bucks to fix that. You should pay for the price of that dress!" The saleswoman yelled at the scandalous lady.
The saleswoman is fuming madly as she looks at the hem of the dress which is now torn. She took the dress off the mannequin and threw it at the woman sitting on the floor.
The woman looked at the crowd taking videos. She screamed, "Ah! Honey! They're bullying me! Honey!"
She looks like a kid throwing tantrums. She even ripped the hem off totally before she threw the dress.
"I don't have patience for customers like you! Pay for what you've damaged!" The saleswoman angrily said, shouting.
"Excuse me, let me walk over." A man's voice from the crowd said. Then he walked over.
I looked at the man with my body frozen. I can't move my hands to slap him nor open my mouth to speak.
"Honey, are you alright?" He checked the woman to ensure her safety.
"Sir, this girl ruined a dress! You should pay for it or I will call the police!" The sales lady complained to him.
"Please, let me handle this. We will pay for the dress, please agree to settle this." The man pleaded.
"Alex?" Fae blurted out shocked at the moment.
Alex's eyes widened as he looked at us. "F-Fae... Mari, b-baby..." He stammered.
I received a pornographic video. "Do you like this?" The man speaking in the video is my husband, Mark, whom I haven't seen for several months. He is naked, his shirt and pants scattered on the ground, thrusting forcefully on a woman whose face I can't see, her plump and round breasts bouncing vigorously. I can clearly hear the slapping sounds in the video, mixed with lustful moans and grunts. "Yes, yes, fuck me hard, baby," the woman screams ecstatically in response. "You naughty girl!" Mark stands up and flips her over, slapping her buttocks as he speaks. "Stick your ass up!" The woman giggles, turns around, sways her buttocks, and kneels on the bed. I feel like someone has poured a bucket of ice water on my head. It's bad enough that my husband is having an affair, but what's worse is that the other woman is my own sister, Bella. ************************************************************************************************************************ “I want to get a divorce, Mark,” I repeated myself in case he didn't hear me the first time—even though I knew he'd heard me clearly. He stared at me with a frown before answering coldly, "It's not up to you! I'm very busy, don't waste my time with such boring topics, or try to attract my attention!" The last thing I was going to do was argue or bicker with him. "I will have the lawyer send you the divorce agreement," was all I said, as calmly as I could muster. He didn't even say another word after that and just went through the door he'd been standing in front of, slamming it harshly behind him. My eyes lingered on the knob of the door a bit absentmindedly before I pulled the wedding ring off my finger and placed it on the table. I grabbed my suitcase, which I'd already had my things packed in and headed out of the house.

For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
