After Seven Years of Loving Him

After seven years of marriage to Alec, he had always played the role of the perfect husband in everyone's eyes.

When he found out I was pregnant, he excitedly bought an entire island as a gift for me.

"Melody, I feel like this is all a dream."

"I swear, I will love you and our sweetheart with all my heart for the rest of my life."

But the next day, when I went to Alec's office to deliver some documents, I caught him in a passionate embrace with Vivienne.

"Alec, do you love me?"

Alec's eyes burned with desire as he pinned Vivienne beneath him, seeming ready to devour her whole.

"Of course, I want to make love to you until the end of time."

I understood then that our seven years together were nothing but a passing illusion.
