After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me My Forbidden Longing
ALISTAIR'S POV:The touchdown on the runway is smooth, far too smooth for how messy I feel on the inside. The heavy rubber tires hit the dark pavement with barely a small bump, and the jet engines reverse with a loud roar, slowing the plane down as we turn off the main strip. The quiet cabin fills with the hum of the aircraft systems slowly powering down for the day.I reach down with trembling fingers, unbuckle my seatbelt, and stand up on stiff legs. I take a few steps down the narrow aisle toward the exit door.My legs feel weak, almost like rubber. My hands are shaking so badly that I have to shove them deep into my coat pockets just to hide it. My entire body is buzzing with a deep, heavy fear that I can barely name.The main cabin door opens with a loud hiss, and the metal stairs fold out down to the wet ground below. I step through the opening and take my first breath of cold London air in seven years.The sky overhead is heavy and dark gray, looking exactly the way it alw
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me Still in Love
ALISTAIR'S POV:She was wearing a simple yellow dress that day, nothing fancy or over the top, but she looked so incredible that she could have walked straight off a magazine cover. Her dark hair was falling down around her shoulders in big waves, and her bright green eyes were full of life. She was laughing out loud at some silly joke Hope made on the porch, her head thrown back, her shoulders shaking with the kind of loud, honest laugh that made me unknownly fall completely in love with her years before.I wanted so badly to step forward, grab her by the hand, and kiss her right there in front of everyone. I wanted to tell her that I loved her more than anything else in the world. I wanted to wrap my arms around her waist and never let her go again.But I was way too scared to do anything. I was too shy, too awkward, and completely terrified that she would push me away or look at me like I was a monster.Keeping my feelings a secret for all those years had made me quiet and weir
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me The Desire I Buried
ALISTAIR'S POV:The private jet cuts through the thick clouds like a sharp knife slicing clean through silk.I am sitting back in the oversized leather seat right next to the window, staring out at the endless stretch of blue sky and bright white fluff below us. Down in the belly of the plane, the engines noise away on a low, steady note that is supposed to put a passenger at ease.It is not putting me at ease. Nothing could put me at ease right now. My heart is pounding against my ribs so hard that I can hear the blood rushing through my ears. My palms are completely wet with sweat. My stomach is churning in tight knots, and every few seconds, I genuinely feel like I am about to throw up.I have not been back to my family's house in seven whole years.Seven long years of running away from my problems. Seven years of hiding behind busy schedules and high-rise offices. Seven years of lying to myself, pretending that I was completely fine, that I had moved on with my life, and tha
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me I Will Try
ISABELLE VALANCOURT'S POV: We got married just two years later in the spring. I was twenty, and he was twenty-two. We didn't want a massive, showy event, so we held a small ceremony right in the garden behind my parents' house, surrounded by fresh summer roses, close friends, and the family members who actually mattered to us. He held both of my hands in his, looked me in the eyes, and promised to love me for every single day of his life. He kept that promise. He kept it every single day, without fail, for over fifty years. August shifts slightly under the heavy blankets, letting out a soft sigh. His eyelids flutter for a moment before his eyes slowly open. He looks right at me, and even now, with his body so weak and tired, the way he looks at me still makes my chest feel tight and my heart skip a beat. "Isabelle," he rasps. His voice is raspy and weak, barely louder than a whisper. "I am right here," I say softly, leaning closer so he doesn't have to strain. "I am right be
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me Love Beyond Time
ISABELLE VALANCOURT'S POV:The bedroom is completely quiet except for the soft, steady beeping of the medical monitors sitting on the nightstand near the window.I have been sitting right here in this high-backed armchair for hours now, holding my husband's hand in both of mine, watching the shallow rise and fall of his chest. The whole room smells like the dried lavender I keep in the ceramic dishes, mixed with that sharp, artificial smell of medicine that I have come to hate over the past few months. It is a smell that constantly reminds me of doctors, clean hospital corridors, and endless hours spent sitting in cold waiting rooms listening to bad news.August is sleeping right now. His face looks peaceful, completely relaxed for the first time all day, with the sharp lines of pain finally smoothed away from around his eyes. He looks so much younger when he sleeps like this, almost like the boy I fell in love with all those decades ago. His thick silver hair has gotten thin over
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me Waiting for Alistair
CELESTINE'S POV:"Mother," I say, letting out a breath. "What are you doing here this early?""I came to help you out," she says, walking over slowly. "You look like you are about to drop."I let out a short laugh. It sounds tired, but it feels good to hear it."I am doing just fine," I tell her."You are completely worn out, Celestine.""I have too much to do to be tired."She walks right up to me and gently pulls the clipboard out of my hands, setting it down on the side table without asking."Celestine," she says, her voice firm. "You have been running yourself into the ground for three weeks straight. You need to sit down and take a breath.""I can't sit down yet. There are a hundred things that still need to get done before tonight.""There is always going to be something else to fix. But you are not going to be any help to your family if you pass out from exhaustion."I look at her face. It is lined with wrinkles from getting older, but her eyes are still just as shar
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me Sorry, I Wasn't There
She watched from the window as her father walked out to greet him.August Valancourt shook Lysander's hand with both of his, the way he did with people he truly respected, and he said something that made Lysander nod solemnly. Then her mother appeared, and Isabelle kissed Lysander on both cheeks, t

Her phone buzzed.She pulled it out of her pocket. A message from Harold Wentworth, her father's lawyer."Divorce papers are ready. I've emailed them to you. Print, sign, and leave them for him. I'll handle the rest."She opened the email. Scrolled through the document. Page after page of legal lan

At seven thirty she put the pasta water on to boil, figuring she'd wait until he was actually here to cook it so it would be fresh. She sat on the couch with a book she couldn't focus on, her phone in her hand, checking it every thirty seconds like a teenager waiting for some boy to notice her. At

Celestine started cooking at three in the afternoon, flour on her hands, music playing low from her phone and the smell of tomatoes and garlic filling the whole penthouse.She made the sauce from scratch, the way her grandmother taught her when she was maybe ten years old. She rolled out the pasta
