LOVING THE REJECTED BILLIONAIRE

I stare at this cheating, lying bastard before me. His demeanour is still as intimidating as before. Actually, it’s more intimidating now that he seems to have added more pounds over the years. Tall, and really huge. Hasn’t he heard of the word “gym”? And what’s with all these nauseating tattoos for heaven’s sake? IMAO!

“How do you know about me and Andy?” I ask, so flat and emotionless.

This nincompoop humiliated me before. He disrespected me once. I won’t let him do that to me again. What he thinks of me doesn’t matter.

“Are you seriously asking me that? You two can’t hide your infidelity even in public.”The balls!

Infidelity?

I didn’t see it that way. Now, this hurts, but I can’t be weak in front of him. I can’t let his fucking option break me. If that is his motive, to humiliate me once again, he will wait forever to see that happen.

He always was a dick in the ass. Always will be.

“You know what Damian, I don’t give a fuck what this seems like to you, because you are the last person on earth I expect to know anything about morals. what I would like to know is what your business here is. You are the one I saw at the charity event, right? What do you want?””Let’s say, it’s just by coincidence that we happen to be at the same place at the same. Don’t get any ideas that I am stalking you, Tania. I have long been over you even before things ended between us. I actually was never into you.”I don’t know this jerk so well, but something tells me he is up to no good. Coincidence my foot! If he is not hiding something, why did he run off when I saw him back at the charity event? I am sure he saw me, and he knew that I saw him. And how does he know Andy?

“Well, same here. That nonsense we had two years ago meant nothing. Not to mention that immoral childish prank you pulled on me with Maria. For those two reasons, I don’t want to see your ugly face because you stink, Damian!”I said that looking straight into his eyes. These eyes of his that never made me feel even a slight spark from the beginning, unlike how I feel with Andy. I would be melting down right now if it was Andy before me, but for this rascal, I feel nothing. If anything, maybe anger and hate.

The jerk smirks again.

“You are still as dumb and gullible as before. You never changed even a bit.””What a pity, right?” The smirk he had on fades immediately. “Even back then, with my stupidity and naivety, you couldn’t get your tail between my legs Damian, which was your only interest. What a pathetic loser you are, Damian Almeda!”He is boiling with anger, and he is failing miserably at hiding it. I knew it all along. That’s all he was after- sex. And when he realized I wasn’t gonna give in to his lustful desire, he decided to go for that cheap tramp, my cousin.

Like him, she had no morals and values, and of course, she wanted to prove a point that she was better than me. It took him just a smile for the two of them to mingle and in no time they become a couple. Birds of the same feather…

“You know, you were right even back then. Maria was your ideal woman. A loose woman with no self-respect, nor dignity, neither morals. Simply, a whore! A dumbass who thinks that the outer beauty is everything in a woman that a real man wants. An immoral idiot who can’t read between the lines of love and lust. A pathetic lying bitch who sleeps with every dog that sways its tail to her. You two really belong to each other.”I turn to leave, but he grabs my hand, making me look at him. I pull my hand away from him forcefully. It’s so disgusting to feel his filthy hands on me.

“And what makes you different from your description of Maria, huh? Does the self-respect, morals, and the dignity that you are ranting about entail wrecking another woman’s home and fucking a married man? Do you call that love? Karma is a bitch, Tania Lawson. Wait until it gets to you. This thing you are calling love right now will tear you into pieces. It will crash you in a way you will never be able to rebuild yourself forever.””Say whatever you want. I will tell you a million times if need be so that it can stick to your empty brain. Your opinion of me means absolutely nothing. I’m ready to face even the devil for this love I have for Andy.” I turn to leave, but I feel like warning this fool about something. “One more thing.” I start, turning to him again. “I hope these unpleasant encounters between us are really coincidences. You don’t…””Babe?”

The sweetest voice of my heartbeat echoes in my ears, and I feel the familiar feeling of his strong arms wrapping strongly around my waist, pulling me to him in a more protective stance. This is new. The possessiveness hits so good.

“Hello, Adrian!”

I will kill this jerk, Damian! He has the balls to greet Andy? Isn’t walking away the most decent thing he should have done even before Andy arrived?

“Hi. I see you already know me. Sorry, you are…?” Andy responds, and this cheater before us dares to smile, straightening his right hand to Andy for a handshake.

I feel Andy’s arms drop slowly from my waist, the same time Damian’s mouth opens, introducing himself to Andy because I was so not going to do the formalities. I just don’t see the importance of introducing him to Andy. He is a nobody to me. A serious nobody!

“Damian Almeda. Tania’s ex.”

Somebody shoot this fucking bastard for me! Did he just say that? How necessary was the last part, really? I knew this idiot can’t be trusted. However, if he thinks he can ruin things for me, he is fucking mistaken. I am not going to allow anybody much less a scumbag like him ruin the love Andy and I have.

I look at Andy, his hand hanging midair. Guessing from the look on his face, he was taken aback by that uncalled-for intro.

“Come on, man! I’m just an ex. We have been long done and over with each other.”I’m glad that he knows that, which means he and I mean absolutely nothing to each other.

Andy unwillingly starts moving his hand to shake Damian’s, but I grab it, pulling it down slowly and I intertwin our fingers. All the four eyes look at me in bewilderment, but I maintain my glance at this dick in front of me.

“The title ex, is well deserved by someone you once loved, cherished, respected, and adored. There was nothing close to any of those in what we had. You are a nobody to me, Damian Almeda. If you have no reason to shake hands with me, then you also have absolutely no reason to shake my boyfriend’s.” I can feel Andy’s eyes move from me to Damian, who is astonished by my calm outburst. “We came here to have fun, and your presence is ruining it. Have some decency and leave, Damian.” His glare at me turns into a murderous one, but he walks away anyways, but not before smirking at both me and Andy, and deviously nodding his head. I don’t know why his behaviour is giving me some bad chills.

Andy’s eyes escort the unpleasant intruder until he disappears from our sight.
