I lie in the drowsy warmth of her bed. I am cheating on my wife. I know the reason why I got married, but she is still my wife. I didn’t plan on driving directly to Sarah, but I feel a pull to this woman. She is comfortable and familiar. Sarah is safe for me. In my world, I need stability. She knows almost every secret and understands each of them. Don’t get me wrong, there will always be a few things I have to take with me to the grave.
Isabella asked about the family business. I knew, eventually, she would. It’s the reason we have to be careful who we get involved with in this business. It’s also the reason I don’t just screw around with any woman. They all start to ask too many questions. What kind of monster would I be if I had to cut out the tongue of some woman I screwed?
I told her that we own twenty-seven restaurants and night clubs in Chicago and New York, but I didn’t tell her the entire truth. How would she react? What would she have said if I told her that we launder money from loan sharks? She can never know about the drugs and extortion through these companies. She would only become a major liability. There is only one ending for liabilities in my world.
She can’t testify against me while we’re married, but our marriage will only last nine months. I can only imagine what the law would offer her to talk. They probably wouldn’t have to offer much, considering she hates me. I don’t even want to think about what I’ll have to do to her when she does squeal.
Sarah turns to her side and places her arm across my chest.
“What are you thinking about?” she asks.
I know better than to give her the real answer, so I tell her the next best thing. “Nikoli.”
“What about him?”
“He came to my house earlier today. He said he wanted to meet Isabella.”
“Really… Interesting.” She smirks.
“It is.”
“What do you think he wants? He isn’t the welcome committee for organized crime,” she replies.
“Honestly, I think he’s looking for a weakness.”
“Well, hopefully, she’ll last long enough for you to be put in charge.”
“Shit… there is something else I need to tell you.” I sigh.
I watch the color slowly drain from her face as I share the news. It takes one hour to calm Sarah down once I explain the nine-month surprise. We have sex again, and I drift off to sleep. My plan was to spend a little time with Sarah to work off the edge. I didn’t plan on staying all night.
My bladder wakes me, and I realize that my plan has failed… miserably.
Fuck. I spent the night.
I grab my pants off the floor and quickly get dressed then sneak out without waking Sarah. She would be pissed to know I am rushing home to my wife. It feels like I am following the sunrise on my way home. I am amazed at how beautiful it is this time of the morning.
