Oh Goddess!

DARLENE.

“I love you Darlene, and there’s no way anyone is taking you away from me, not even Conri, so do not fear, you’re mine,” he hugged me tightly and then whispered in my ear.

“Happy anniversary my wife,” he cupped my face and bent to kiss me, slowly and softly he kissed me, yet could sense that he was already beginning to worry, I knew how much Cullian loved and obsessed over me, and the thought of losing me, could give him sleepless nights, that’s why I didn’t want to get him involved in this whole shit!

I broke out of the kiss, and looked deep into his amber eyes, honey, I promise you, I would never leave you, I’m yours and that’s not going to change,” I assured him, and he nodded.

“The food is ready, I’ll serve breakfast,” I said.

“Let me help then,” he opened the cabinet and brought out some white ceramic plates, while I dished out the food.

I, Cullian and the kids were seated at the dining table. I picked up my phone from the table, turned it on the check for the time, it was past nine AM, yet the nanny hadn’t arrived yet.

“What about the nanny? Isn’t she coming?” Cullian asked, gosh! I knew this man could read minds.

“I’ve tried calling her, her number isn’t reachable,” I mumbled.

“Let’s give her some time,” Cullian shifted his focus back to his food.

About an hour later we were done eating and Cullian decided to head back to the room, maybe have his bath.

Since it was I and my husband’s five year anniversary,. We both decided to fly to Paris by noon for a romantic dinner date, while the kids will stay home with the nanny who hadn’t shown up yet.

“Blake, I think your nanny is here,” she had texted me that she was on her way, After we had waited on her for hours now. I could get another nanny, but it was hard trusting anyone these days, and now that the kids have gotten used to their nanny, Tamara. And I found it difficult to replace her.

Blake was sitting on the sofa, watching his favourite cartoon and for that reason he ignored me.

“Blake!” I called again, he turned in shock, he was too carried away he didn’t hear me the first time.

“Your nanny is here, go let her in,” he stood up and headed for the door.

“Mum, it’s not my nanny,” Blake informed when he opened the door.

“Who are you?” Blake questioned whoever was standing by the door.

“Where is your mother,” I heard, it was a male’s voice.

“Blake,” I called, while I rushed to the door.

“Good day ma’am,” it was a delivery man.

“Good day, how can I help you? Blake go inside,” I said to Blake while my focus was still on the man.

“Are you Mrs Darlene Ford, Mr Cullian Ford’s husband?” He asked.

“Yes I am,” I responded.

“You have a package,” he said, handing me a plain white box wrapped with a red ribbon.

“Can you sign here please,” he handed me a book and a pen.

“Who is it from?” I hesitated.

“Well ma’am, that I can not tell you, the sender wants it to be a surprise,

and even if he didn’t want to be anonymous, i wouldn’t know him either, my job is to deliver, my boss takes the orders,” he tried to convince me.

“Alright,” I took the book and pen from him and signed it anyway.

“Thank you, and have a lovely day,” he greeted me, before departing.

I signalled one of the body guards who stood by the gate and he ran towards me.

“What’s your name?” I questioned.

“Lex,” he responded almost immediately.

“Well Lex, I placed you in the gate for a reason, I don’t want anyone coming into my home just like that,” I said to him.

“I’m so sorry madam, I thought he was a delivery man, that’s why Net him in,” he explained.

“Well, not even a delivery man should have access to this house, you and your men should inform me first, before letting anyone in, okay?”

“Yes Madam, it wouldn’t repeat itself again,”

“Go back to your post,” I instructed and he did.

Cullian was upstairs taking his shower, while Aurora and Drake were upstairs in their rooms.

“Mum, what’s that?” Blake squinted looking at the gift box.

“Go to your room Blake,” I said to him.

“But I want to watch this,” Blake pointed to the TV.

“Go watch it in your room,” I pointed upstairs.

When he saw I was really serious about him leaving, he sluggishly stood up, and stumped upstairs.

“Is that murmuring I hear?” I yelled.

“No mum,” he responded.

When I noticed no one was in the living room, I decided to open up the box before Cullian comes in.

I quickly loosened up the ribbon, then I opened the box as my eyes flew

open.

“What the fuck!” I closed my mouth with my palm. Slowly I brought out the little red underwear, and I noticed a card. I brought the card out and I could feel my hands shaking while I read what it wrote.

“OUR FIRST NIGHT, CONRI,” it wrote. Indeed that was the underwear I had on when I first had a thing with Conri, Gosh! The sight of the underwear brought many dark memories, memories I had hidden deep inside my head, memories I didn’t want to be reminded of. This made my whole body shiver.

“Babe, Blake said there was a strange man at the door,” the sound of Cullian’s voice made me drop the underwear and I watched his eyes run down to the fabric.

“What’s that honey?” He asked.
