Neil had a smile on his face when he got home, he had a box in his hands and a big smile on his face. "Finally, I am going to tell her who I am and nothing is going to hold me back from doing anything with her now."
Neil had kept his identity a secret from his wife Rachel for too long, he knew that there was no way she would even think of him differently if he were to tell her that he was the Lord of Krysovia.
At a young age, Neil made sure that he paved his name into history by taking over the lands that opposed his people's peace. He was a warrior that no one would even think of opposing or attacking but it was also clear that he was a powerful force to fight.
At the age of 22 Neil had become the world's most feared General. But he wanted to live a life of peace, there wasn't a thing in the world that would make him think of fighting anyone ever again. He was known for his strength and ability to make people love him, he was kind and generous to his people and there was no way for him
"Have you thought this through? You are really going to tell her who you are and not keep anything from her?"
Claire looked at Neil who had called her earlier to prepare a gift for him. A gift that he would give Erica, he didn't even want to hear a thing that was being said.
"I know she would accept me as what and who I am, she would be thrilled to know that her husband is the world's most feared General."
Neil smiled as he looked at the gift, it was astonishing. He had made Claire prepare it with great care, there was nothing left out there that would hold him back.
"Okay, I will check back on you later. I need to go fix somethings up and make sure everything is ready for you whenever you want to move back into a luxurious house."
Claire always thought it was absurd for Neil to leave everything behind just to find peace. On many occasions, she had tried to kill people for the way they treated him at workplaces and bars but Neil would always tell her to refrain.
Neil went as far as taking a job as a delivery man for a company, he was one of the company's most trusted employees and he was always there for them no matter what.
Neil thought it was a bit much if he was not doing any work, he wanted everyone to take him for something that no one would think of. It was working and everything was going the way he would even want it to be.
He had a wife that had stayed with him for years and there was no problem, he had gotten the who in a silver platter. "I am going to make sure I give her everything she needs."
Neil opened the door and walked in, he looked up to see his wife in the room with his senior colleague. They were kissing in the living room and from the looks of it they were about to go a bit far.
Justin's blood began to boil, his teeth gritted and veins began bulging on his head. "What in the world are you doing with my wife?!"
Rachel and the man disengaged from their act, Rachel didn't act like she was doing anything wrong. It was like she was only disappointed that he was back that early.
"Erica? Why in the world would you be here with this scum?" Neil was looking at Paul, a colleague of his who was always the talk of the office ladies and how he couldn't keep his pants to himself.
"Watch your mouth delivery boy, you know I might be scum but at least I know how to treat a woman and take care of her," Paul spoke up, he had a smirk on his face. Neil was fighting the urge to punch him at that moment.
"You are trying to make me mad now, back away from my wife before I think of something to do to you." Neil was fuming with rage and there was no one there strong enough to hold him back.
"Justin, cool off will you?" Rachel spoke up, she was looking at Neil like she had done nothing wrong but only tried to make herself feel like the woman she was.
"What are you saying, Erica? There is no way you would mean that I know there is something that is making you do all this. I know we can talk it out,"
Neil had grown to love Rachel more than anyone or anything and it was heartbreaking for him to see her in bed with another man. "Why do you sound like that Erica? I love you more than anything and I want to show you that I would care for you all the step of the way."
"If you love me then you will have to set me free Justin, I can't live like this anymore. There is nothing good coming out of you and there will never be. You are a complete loser and I have not seen anyone as hopeless as you." Rachel was looking at Neil when she said all those words, it was like she wanted to make sure that there was nothing about him that mattered to her.
Neil stood there looking at her, he was not even sure what he would say. "What are you trying to say, Erica? I have given you everything I can get and I am willing to give you more so why are you acting this way?"
"Maybe I want more from life instead of living with a bum for a husband. There is no way on earth I would even think of something that would make me a bit happier. I need my space and time away from you."
Rachel was not looking Neil in the eye when he said those words, it was like she was trying her best to avoid his gaze. There was no telling what she was thinking at the moment.
"So what are you saying? What does this mean?" Neil stood there looking at Erica, he was not sure what she would say but he knew that it was something that he would want to avoid.
"I want a divorce, Justin."
