Champion is a sweet guy with a warm personality. The kind of person everyone wants to be around. He sees people for who they really are, not just what’s on the surface.

We work in the same organization. He was transferred from another country and posted to my branch. At the time, I was in my third trimester, so I went on maternity leave shortly after he arrived. But as kind as he is, he kept in touch while I was away, mostly when he needed help with my portfolio.

Three months later, I returned to work. We continued as colleagues, nothing special. But over time, I noticed Champion was getting closer to me. Our small team already had a bond, but his attention felt different. It was clear he was trying to be more than just a colleague.

One thing about Champion is that he’s bold. He says what’s on his mind without worrying about what people will think. And I was clearly on his mind. I became a challenge he wanted to pursue, and he didn’t hide it. He made it known to me and to everyone around us.

We were assigned to travel together for work. That trip changed everything. For three days and nights, we were together. We made love like it was the end of the world. What I felt with him, I had never felt before. They say stolen waters taste sweet, and I can confirm that.

We agreed to return to our normal lives and pretend nothing happened. We were supposed to keep it professional, keep it quiet, keep it temporary. But it was impossible. I couldn’t focus at work. At home, the spark with our partners vanished. We tried to hide it, but we couldn’t. So we kept seeing each other.

That’s how it’s been. In public, we live as family people. But behind closed doors, we know we belong to each other. We find peace and comfort in each other’s arms. Our connection is deep. Our intimacy is something I can’t explain. We know we’re meant for each other, even though we can’t be together openly.

We hate seeing other people admire either of us, because deep down, we know we belong to each other. I don’t know how long this will last, but for now, he meets me in a way no one else can. He loves and desires me like I’m all he has. And I feel the same way about him.

I choose to live in the moment. To love as I do now. Everyone deserves love and happiness.

To understand how I ended up in his arms, I was lonely and neglected in a one-sided relationship. Champion came and filled that gap. He doesn’t know this, but if he ever asked me to be his second wife, I would say yes without thinking twice.
