Anger slithers up my spine, making my movements jerky. Scarlett looks up at me, her eyes imploring, begging for something only I can provide. The look pi**es me off. My anger isn’t directed at her, but at myself. I’m the one who’s guilty here. Scarlett is innocent, despite the darkness that resides in her that makes her the way she is. Despite the temptation she represents. I pursued her all those years ago, not the other way around. I’m the one who gave in. I’m the one who’s betraying his spouse. Shaking my head, I push all thoughts of Cat from my mind. For this to continue, I can’t think about my wife. And I want to continue this thing that Scarlett and I have. I need it like I need my next breath. Beautiful Chaos by Alex Grayson
