After Rejection Divorced Luna Becomes A Famous Doctor (Hailey and Dominic) novel Chapter 52

CHAPTER FIFTY–TWO–1

DOMINIC

I watched her sleep, her warm body curled up against mine. Her eyes were closed, and her lashes rested against her cheeks. Her lips were slightly parted, and her chest was slowly rising and falling, matching the pace of her steady breathing.

Her hand was on my chest, and her head was resting against my shoulder. Her hair was messy, and her locks were spread across the pillow, a few strands fell on her face.

My finger moved and brushed them away, tucking the strand behind her ear. Her hair was soft, and her skin was warm.

Her face was calm, and she looked peaceful.

She looked so innocent.

So pure.

So beautiful.

I couldn’t understand how I could never tell her how breathtaking she was every single day of our marriage, how could any sane man fumble this badly and lose the most precious gift he had.

But, it was true.

I lost her, and the worst part was that, I wasn’t even aware of the fact that I had lost her. But I was selfish, too selfish to let her move on from me when I got married to someone else, too selfish to allow her to forget about me and find happiness with another man.

A part of me was relieved and glad, because, if she had moved on, there was no doubt that she would have gotten over me, and the idea of her loving another man, sleeping in his arms, kissing him, and making love to him, was the last thing I wanted.

The thought alone was driving me crazy.

But the reality was worse.

She never got over me, and the love, the desire and the passion, was still there.

Even though she hated me, and her love turned to hate, the feelings and the memories remained.

And that gave me hope.

It was the only thing keeping me alive, and the one thing that kept me from losing it. It was so clear in the way her body reacted to me, and the way she responded to my touch. The passion was undeniable, and the fire was burning.

It was like she couldn’t fight it.

And neither could I.

Maybe i shouldn’t have made love to her, maybe I should have given her time and not rush things, but her lips were too irresistible, and her touch was too powerful, and my body was aching for her.

The desire was strong, and I couldn’t help myself. The need was overwhelming, and I lost it.

I was weak, and I caved in.

But, the moment I kissed her, the moment my lips touched hers, the moment she surrendered to me, was the moment when I knew that we would never be apart again. And for the first time in my life, I did the one thing I despised the most.

Cheating.

It doesn’t matter how I feel about Yasmine. We were married, and I had cheated.

And I felt like a hypocrite because I didn’t feel bad one bit. I didn’t feel the guilt I thought I would feel. Instead, all I felt was relief. It felt like the most natural thing in the world, and like it was meant to happen.

Hailey and I were made for each other.

There was no denying it.

We were two parts of a whole, and once we were separated, the world crumbled, and the light disappeared.

She was the yin to my yang.

The positive to my negative.

The north to my south.

And the darkness to my light

The universe brought us together for a reason, and there was no point denying it.

There was no point fighting the inevitable.

I felt her slowly stir beside me, and I braced myself for what was about to come next. It could either be good or bad. I just hoped that it was the former, and not the latter.

I watched as she opened her eyes, blinking a few times, and staring at the ceiling.

It was a minute before she sat up, and pulled the sheets over her, wrapping them around her body, and keeping them tight, making sure that they covered her completely.

CHAPTER FIFTY–TWO–2

She kept her back towards me, and her posture was stiff, and her shoulders were hunched. She ran her hands through her hair and I heard her mumble something to herself.

I wasn’t sure if I should say something, and wait for her to speak, or just go ahead and break the silence.

But then, I didn’t have to make a choice, because she turned and looked at me. And without her even talking, I already knew what she was thinking.

“This shouldn’t have happened. What the fuck were we thinking? Oh god, no. What did we do?”

She was shaking her head, and her breathing was rapid.

“Hailey, relax. Take a deep breath. Look, I know that you’re freaking out right now, but this is no big deal, okay? Last night, we were both caught up in the moment, and the things we did were impulsive. We got carried away, and it wasn’t planned. You have nothing to worry about. We were just caught up in the moment. So, calm down.”

“Caught up in the moment? Are you kidding me? No, no. I wasn’t. It was a mistake. A huge fucking mistake.”

I grabbed her arm, willing her to calm down. “Hailey, listen to me. Just take a deep breath, and don’t overthink-”

She snatched her arm from me, and her glare was murderous.

“Don’t you dare tell me what to do. Don’t even try. God, I hate myself for being so stupid and reckless. Last night was a mistake. An enormous, catastrophic mistake.”

I pulled myself up and rested my back against the headboard, looking at her as she got off the bed, and walked to the other side of the room. She stood in front of the window, and the sun shone on her, illuminating her body, making her look like an angel.

“I’m sorry, but it wasn’t a mistake. At least, not for me. For me, it was the best thing that could have ever happened. I know, what we did was wrong. It was cheating, and I’m ashamed and guilty. But, the truth is, that the moment I kissed you, everything else disappeared, and it was just the two of us. The pain and the anger vanished, and the only thing I could think of was the love and the passion. I wasn’t thinking. All I could feel was the need. The desire and the longing. The feelings I had for you, the love and the

connection.”

“Enough!” She yelled, and threw on her clothes. “Enough of your bullshit. What are you trying to do, huh? Are you trying to confuse me? Get me to forgive you? Well, it’s not working. You think that because we fucked, I’ll just forget everything that you’ve done to me? Forget the past, and let it all go, and fall in love with you again?”

“What the hell is wrong with you? Why do you keep denying the obvious? You can deny all you want, but you can’t change the facts. I can’t change the fact that the moment I was inside you, was the best feeling

in the world. I can’t change the fact that when I looked at you, I saw a glimpse of the love that you had for me. The love that was still there, despite everything. The love that was hidden, and was buried deep down, in the corner of your heart. The love that was still there, and will always be. You can’t change the fact that you love me, Hailey. Just admit it. Stop running away. Stop fighting.”

“I don’t love you anymore, Dominic. And I never will. This whole thing was a big mistake. No one should find out about this. It is absolutely sha-”

“Why? So, we can pretend that it didn’t happen? That we didn’t just make love, and give ourselves to each other. That the passion, the pleasure, the heat, the love, and the connection, was nothing. That the love we shared was nothing?”

“Yes! That’s exactly what you’re going to do. Because it’s the truth. All this meant nothing to me. It’s a mistake that could have easily happened with another man. I was horny, and you happened to be around. The sex was amazing, but that’s all it was. Just sex. Nothing more. So, we can pretend like this never happened, and go back to your wife.”

Her words were sharp, and the bitterness in her voice was painful.

“No. I can’t do that. Not after this. I can’t pretend like this didn’t happen, because for the first time, I have hope. I have faith. I have the confidence, and the assurance, that we will be together. You can’t fool me, Hailey. I see through your lies. I hear the pain in your voice, and I know that the anger is a wall you’ve put up. A wall that’s trying to protect you. To keep yourself from getting hurt again. I see the tears in your eyes, and I know that you’re lying to me. You may have lied to others, but you can’t lie to me. The feelings and the emotions are real. It wasn’t just sex. It wasn’t just lust. It was us, reconnecting, and giving into our love. It was us, finally being honest, and letting go of our inhibitions. It was us, showing our true selves. It was us, surrendering to the passion, and letting it consume us. And most importantly, it was us being together again. It was us, becoming one. And no, Hailey. You and I, will never be the same again. This wasn’t a mistake. This was a new beginning. Our new beginning. You’re lying to me, and most of all, you’re lying to yourself. But, I’ll let it go. I’ll let you lie, and I’ll let you deny. For now, but eventually, you’ll have to admit the
