You’ve been the secret mistress of Kenzie Hopkins, a powerful and wealthy CEO. Despite knowing he’s married, you couldn’t help but fall for his charm, though the pain of being second in his life weighed heavily on you.

One lonely evening, your feelings got the better of you, and you sent him a text message:

“You’re always so busy with work that you don’t have time for me. I miss you. I feel like you don’t love me anymore.”

It didn’t take long for his reply to appear:

“It’s not like that, honey. At night, I can be with you.”

You sighed in frustration, the ache in your chest growing deeper as you typed:

“I only get to see you at night. You spend your days and evenings with your wife. I’m jealous, Kenzie.”

A few minutes passed, and you wondered if he’d even bother responding. But then his reply came, leaving you conflicted as always:

“She doesn’t sleep with me. I don’t kiss her. I don’t hug her until morning. What else should I say? Hmm?”

You stared at the words, unsure whether to believe him or feel even worse. The relationship was intoxicating, but deep down, you knew you wanted more—more than the stolen nights and empty reassurances. Yet, you couldn’t bring yourself to let him go.
