Natalia went back to her place in line and I took my place, I had asked mom to take me to the altar, I didn't want to see my father and Andrew had refused to take part in this circus, he had left the house and we didn't know where he was.
My heart was racing and my hands were sweating, at the end of the aisle was this handsome man in his black tuxedo, so chiseled to his body, God Gabriel was so handsome he could drive any woman crazy.
When I arrived next to him he gave me a beautiful smile, he had been so serious and distant for days that I thought he would be like that forever or that he was pretending to offer me his friendship, but this was the Gabriel who had spoken to me after dinner.
"You look beautiful, Ana," his voice was a whisper that made my skin crawl.
"You look very handsome, Gabriel," my voice was also a nervous whisper.
The father started the wedding, we said our vows, which were written for us, because none of the words spoken reflected the feelings of both of us, but it was something I had refused to write, just like Gabriel had done, according to my mother, even though he had said it was something ridiculous, we put on our rings and then the father blessed us.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride."
I looked at Gabriel nervously, but he seemed content and happy, he smiled broadly and brought his face close to mine, I felt his lips on mine, it was such a quick brush that I barely felt it as I saw him pull away and then embrace me.
"Mrs. Smith, welcome to the family."
I can only smile as I bite my lower lip, I have no words to say, I just know I was unsatisfied with that kiss and wanted more.
I think I was going crazy.
It had been three months since the wedding, the same number of months that had passed since Gabriel and I had kissed, the day of the wedding everything went by very quickly, the party went by without any kind of problem and Mom spent it going from table to table with Dad, talking to every guest who was as rich as Mr. Smith, most of the guests were partners and friends of Gabriel and his father, Dad was taking advantage of making his connections for future business. Mom did whatever she wanted with the reception, from a singer, a band that Gabriel had hired for the day, what bothered me the most was that my father had some reporters come, that made Gabriel very upset, he wanted the wedding of the year to appear in as many newspapers as magazines, they were selling the pictures that were going to be taken today, dad had proven to be a shitty father who was after money no matter what.
I wanted so much to run away from the party, it was like watching a circus where the clown is my father.
Nobody, but nobody, took my opinion into account, nobody asked me if I liked the dress, I really hated it, it put a lot of pressure on my breasts, preventing me from breathing, and my legs itched because the lace of the pantyhose was so annoying, Gabriel asked me many times if I wanted to change my clothes for something more comfortable. But Mom had not said a word to me about changing my clothes, so I could only shake my head.
Not to mention that Miss Sympathy was the coldest and at the same time kindest boyfriend of the night, it was a crazy combination to see, I was starting to believe Gabriel was bipolar, he suddenly had bitter outbursts, I thought he was going to choke me with the cake or something, since we had that kiss in the church his mood changed drastically, it seemed my presence bothered him a lot.
But damn, his lips were soft, his perfume accompanied me all night long, we held hands and smiled to as many people as possible who greeted us, at the time of the dance he was so close to me that his strong chest made me feel comfortable.
But to tell you the truth, what really worried me was Gabriel's attitude when we arrived at the new house where he and I would live alone, without our parents, emphasizing that this house and the dog kennel were not humble at all. He behaved so stubbornly and recklessly that I think it is no longer a simple change of mood.
The guy who said he was my friend disappeared completely and I didn't know how to find him, we didn't have that trust between us, it was so exhausting to wait every day what his daily mood would be and to have the doubt if it was my presence that caused all this.
It's not that I wanted a loving, attentive and caring husband, or to have him glued to me every moment, I just thought everything would be different once we were married. I thought it would be like living with a roommate you get along with.
It wasn't like that at all.
His attitude, his way of being was so irritating.
At least I began to notice some things in his behavior that bothered me, somehow, many times he would leave the house very early, almost at dawn, and other times he would arrive so late, sometimes he would tell Marcela, the housekeeper he hired himself without asking my opinion, that he was very busy and that she should be the one to accompany me to eat or to entertain me, as if I were a dog that needed to be walked. It didn't bother me at all, what bothered me was that none of this was discussed with me first, I always found out everything from Marcela.
He just made decisions without consulting me, things like I had to have a driver, and thank God I didn't know how he did it yet, but we were able to have Rafa, my family's driver, with us. Another of his orders was that I had to sleep with him in the same bedroom.
He refuses to let Marcela find out that this marriage is a lie and then go around with the story, and finally, worse than all the things he has imposed on me, I have to sleep in the same bed.
I refused to share his bed, but Gabriel just made excuses and more excuses, so now we slept in the same bed.
The 'hello' in the morning and the 'good night'.
They are always the words we exchange the most because of the lack of communication between us.
Since we got married, he has become quieter, he is more indifferent towards me, I feel he is hiding things from me, but we don't have the confidence to talk about his problems and I don't really care about his work problems.
I pretend to be his wife, that it doesn't hurt him to be locked in a house all day with nothing to do, with no one to talk to, I know Gabriel doesn't care, but the reality is that I'm dying to know what he's thinking when he stares at a fixed point the few times we eat together, other things I want to know is why when his phone rings, Gabriel, leaves everything he's doing at home to run away, no matter what time it is or what he's doing.
he biggest idea and doubt forming in my mind is that Gabriel has a lover.
Or am I the other one?
How much does my husband do away from home? He leaves because he doesn't like me, he hates me when he was the one who said we would be friends.
Since the wedding they are more continuous, his exits are quick and without explanations, even on the day of our honeymoon he left me alone in the hotel and ran away as soon as his phone rang.
I say run away because for me it is, that is, there is no moment when he does not run away from the call of this person, how do I know it is a woman? From the way he talks to her, he doesn't hide that fact from me.
On my honeymoon I was the most humiliated woman, I felt very bad because I spent it alone in a hotel room, who wants to spend his honeymoon alone. At 2 o'clock in the morning I called Rafa and we spent it together, killing time with something while watching the sun rise. But as much as I ask myself, what was more important than me to leave me alone on such an important day?
I still don't have the answer, even though I think I know.
Although, looking at the bright side, I would have no reason to go through with this marriage if I discovered infidelity, because that could be my only grounds for divorce.
That night Gabriel said he would pick me up before the honeymoon was over or much sooner, but he never came, I spent the whole night waiting for him until I fell asleep from crying, he had humiliated me in the worst way.
Early in the morning we took the plane back to Caracas, because the honeymoon had been in a small island called Margarita, an island I did not know because we never left the hotel, or rather I did not leave the hotel, then we went home, on the way I called my mother-in-law and there was no answer, I wondered if something was wrong with my parents-in-law.
I looked at the big mansion I would be living in and sighed tiredly, yes it was much smaller than my old house, but maybe it would be another prison for me.
If there was one thing I expected from Gabriel, it was respect for me.
The bedroom door opened to reveal Gabriel with a tired face, step by step he walked to the bathroom without saying a word, ignoring that I was sitting on the bed with a book in my hands, this was something he did very often, ignoring my presence, I just looked at my book 'Following Your Voice' and pretended to read, averting my eyes, I watched him take off his shoes, socks, pants, shirt until he was in his underwear, my husband had a hell of a body, I didn't want to fool myself and very rarely the desire to explore him filled me with fear.
Shit, Ana, pull yourself together.
You and him, it's not going to happen, you're just friends.
"Ana, can you hear me?" he said, resting his soft hand on my shoulder, I don't know at what point I walked over to where my head was.
"Ah? What is it," I asked, snapping out of my thoughts, I hadn't heard a single word he had said.
"What if dinner is ready, I'm starving and tired, I didn't have time to eat at the office." Gabriel grabbed a clean towel and headed for the bathroom before turning to me when he didn't get an answer. "Ana are you okay, is something wrong?"
Ana's POV"No, everything's fine, I'll tell Marcela to heat up dinner for you," I said, getting up and leaving the bedroom.The truth was it was 9:15 and I had eaten many hours ago thinking he would not arrive, so days ago I had told Marcela not to make food for Gabriel since he always ended up voting.He was upstairs taking a bath. I prepared a nice dinner for him and put some on a plate for me, I did not want to leave him alone in the dining room, being there in silence usually frightens me. When I went downstairs the food was already served and Gabriel started to eat, I think if I keep eating like this I will start to roll, who knows, I could also end up in the bathtub with Gabriel giving us a bubble bath or I could be taken to jail for raping my husband, a laugh escaped me because of my crazy thoughts. This man is untouchable, after dinner I picked up all the ducks and took them to the kitchen and left everything in the dishwasher.It was so exhausting and I really didn't know wh
I wasn't prepared to face questions from any other woman than Ana, the blonde, she looked very curious, Ana, although she didn't ask any questions either, I didn't know what to tell her if she asked her about what happened on the day of the honeymoon, because it was true that I had spent all that time with Sonia and no matter how much I wanted to go back to the hotel I couldn't find a single excuse.Sonia was the reason why my relationship with my parents was so fragile at that moment; my father threatened to take away everything he had on the wedding day if he found out that I was making Ana an unhappy woman.But the happiness of the other person who suffers because of me, where does that leave me? I have to be selfish with a person who loves me even though I am marrying someone who is not her.It was easy to give orders and commands, but it was very difficult to carry them out.Ana's POVSince Natalia showed up at my house only two days have passed and our conversation went nowhere,
Ana's POVI was actually very disappointed that I didn't get any calls or messages from Gabriel all day and night at Natalia's house, it wasn't that he and I talked much, but he always tends to send me the occasional message.Natalia, on the other hand, was a bit obnoxious and unfriendly to me, but she made me some sandwiches and we quickly fell into a friendly, safe and happy atmosphere with nine degrees of fighting. In the morning I said goodbye to her because I had to go home, she was a married woman and it didn't look good for me to sleep in a different house from my husband.I get out of the car, before Rafa opens the door for me, I see the red car in front of the house and for a moment the thought crosses my mind that my husband has bought another car, so I enter the house in a hurry, because a short time ago I told Gabriel that I did not like the car, so happy and satisfied I enter the living room.But the picture in the middle of the living room does not please me, a woman I
I carefully take her to the bed, I watch how she closes her eyes and hides her gaze from me, while I spread her legs and bring my face close to her sex above the fabric of her panties, I feel the tiny wet thong and even move it aside to caress that part with my tongue, her hips arch, I devour her with passion, I penetrate her with my fingers, her screams and moans fill the bedroom, it's like listening to a beautiful song. I leave the position, I take her lips as I tear the thong, I leave her lip, I get off the bed and quickly undress, I feel her eyes on my cock, I want her to suck it and swallow my cum fuck, it would be nice to be in that mouth, but I would explode if I didn't come in her.I placed myself between her legs and watched her waiting for a sign of denial, but I only get me with her lips, seeking mine and being herself with her hand to take me to penetrate her.It was fucking heaven.It was the best thing in the world and I didn't want to leave.I rolled over on the bed,
Ana's POV"I doubt it Ana, as Gabriel himself said, you are just a stranger he has to pretend to be happy with for a while, nothing more, you are the woman his father and yours, beggar, starving, sold to go to another country and who helped him not to lose his company, that's what you are for him." She looks at me and smiles. "I'm sorry if you didn't know that your parents left the country."She turns and starts to leave, I still haven't processed the words well, who the hell is the man I'm marrying? Before my tears came out, I quickly went to the club, when I got to the entrance of the club, I bumped into someone, my wet eyes didn't let me see well, when I looked in front of me all I could do was kiss the person who had imprisoned me in his arms.His lips move fiercely on mine, with urgency, passion and desire, he takes my lower lip, biting it, I moan in protest and cradle his neck, pressing him closer to my body, I was so needy to feel loved by him, I didn't hold back, my mind was c
Ana's POVSix months later"Can you please turn that thing off," Gabriel says in an annoyed tone as he gets out of bed."You couldn't turn it off for me," I say, pushing the alarm clock aside to go back to sleep."I wasn't the one who set that thing to go off at 4 a.m.""What, 4 a.m.?" I grabbed the alarm clock and looked at the time, by God I was absolutely right, it was 4 a.m. "I swear it wasn't me, I'm sorry."But the truth was I hadn't done it, although lately I would do anything to screw up Gabriel's life.I stood up and stared at my husband, his body was in his underwear, I could see his hard chest, sculpted from long hours at the gym and well-marked, I knew because one day I touched it and I knew it was my husband's body.Since the day Gabriel said he had slept with Sonia, I have changed a lot with him, I am no longer the Ana Gafa who thought her husband would love her one day. Not only was I responsible for making things right, I got married, I live in a pretend marriage and I
Ana's POV"I think good, I'm glad to see you, it's been three months since I looked at you and knowing that you still remember me makes me happy.""Yes, it's just that I've had a lot of work at the company and it's hardly important for me to come and bring the reports anymore Does Gabriel know you're here?""Well, the truth is I came without him knowing, maybe the bodyguards already told him that I escaped from them at the mall and they must be looking for me like crazy." I let out a laugh.But my laughter was not returned, Lian was very serious."I won't be able to visit you anymore, I think this will be the last date, Ana," Lian said suddenly, which surprised me. "You know, it hurts to come to see you every three months and know that he treats you worse every day, I'm tired of telling you to ask him for a divorce, but it seems that you are in love with him, because you don't even want to ask him for a divorce anymore".It's true, the idea of asking for a divorce was Lian’s, and yes,
Ana's POV"I don't want to eat and there's nothing to eat, if you're hungry go to your wife and get fed," I said, walking past him to leave the dining room.I didn't want to be in the house anymore let alone with him, it was too exhausting for me to see him every day, I had to find a way to get rid of Gabriel.The phone in my back pocket started to vibrate so I picked it up to see who it was, if it was Lian looking for an answer I had it, I knew very well I want him now and he is my only way out, but the name on the screen left me not knowing what to do.Andres and I fought a week before the wedding, when he found out about our parents' plans, he told me that he would end my life if I did what they asked me to do, I told him to think of our family, that we would lose everything, then he laughed in my face and said that in the end I was the same, like mom and dad, I only cared about the dirty mo
