After finding her husband in a compromising position with her boss\u2019s wife at a party, Denise\u2019s world crumbles. Heartbroken and betrayed, she confronts her husband, only to be thrown out of her own home. The next day, her boss shows up with a shocking proposition. Will Denise take the bait?<\/p>\n

I should have known something was wrong the moment we walked into my boss, Richard\u2019s mansion that night. I felt out of place in my little black dress that I\u2019d saved up for, but my husband, Eric\u2026 he seemed perfectly at ease. Too at ease, now that I think about it.<\/p>\n

\u201cStick with me tonight, okay?\u201d I\u2019d asked him, looping my arm through his as we walked in.<\/p>\n

He nodded, but his eyes were already wandering, searching for something \u2014 or someone \u2014 I couldn\u2019t see.<\/p>\n

The first hour or so passed in a blur of small talk and glasses of champagne. I lost sight of Eric at some point, assuming he was just getting another drink or chatting with someone. But when I didn\u2019t see him for a while, a knot began to form in my stomach.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when Richard found me.<\/p>\n

\u201cDenise, have you seen Vanessa?\u201d His voice was casual, but there was a tightness around his eyes. Vanessa was his wife, a woman who exuded confidence and poise.<\/p>\n

I shook my head, that knot in my stomach twisting tighter. \u201cNo, I haven\u2019t. Have you seen Eric?\u201d<\/p>\n

We exchanged a look then, one of those silent, shared understandings that something wasn\u2019t right. Without another word, we both started searching.<\/p>\n

Room after room, hallway after hallway, all the while my heart pounded louder and louder in my ears. When we finally reached the attic door, I think I already knew.<\/p>\n

The door creaked open, and there they were. Eric and Vanessa, wrapped up in each other like they couldn\u2019t get close enough. They didn\u2019t even notice us until I gasped.<\/p>\n

Eric\u2019s face\u2026 God, I\u2019ll never forget it. He looked like a deer caught in headlights, like he was about to stammer out some pathetic excuse, but no words came. And Vanessa\u2026 she just looked bored, like she\u2019d been caught in something inconvenient rather than something devastating.<\/p>\n

I couldn\u2019t stay there. I couldn\u2019t look at them, or at Richard, who stood frozen beside me.<\/p>\n

I turned and walked away, every step heavier than the last. My whole world was crumbling, and all I could do was put one foot in front of the other, trying not to fall apart.<\/p>\n

When I got home, I thought I would break down. But I didn\u2019t. I was numb, hollowed out by the betrayal. Eric walked in not long after me, and I waited for him to say something, anything to make sense of what I\u2019d seen.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy, Eric?\u201d My voice was barely above a whisper, but it was all I could manage. \u201cWhy her? Why now?\u201d<\/p>\n

At first, he just stood there like he was the one who\u2019d been hurt. Finally, he looked at me, and his eyes were colder than I\u2019d ever seen them. \u201cDoes it really matter? It\u2019s done, Denise. And you should leave.\u201d<\/p>\n

I blinked, trying to process his words. \u201cLeave? This is our home, Eric.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo,\u201d he said, his tone as flat as his expression. \u201cIt\u2019s my grandmother\u2019s house. You have no claim here. You should go. Vanessa will be here soon.\u201d<\/p>\n

His words hit me like a slap, the final blow in a night full of them.<\/p>\n

I packed what little I could into a suitcase, and ended up staying in a dingy motel on the outskirts of town. The bed was lumpy, the walls paper-thin, and the lights flickered whenever I turned them on.<\/p>\n

I was barely holding it together, trying to figure out what the hell to do next, when the knock came. It was past midnight, and for a second, I thought I was imagining things. But there it was again, louder this time.<\/p>\n

My heart leaped into my throat. Who on earth would be at my door at this hour?<\/p>\n

\u201cDenise, it\u2019s me,\u201d came a voice from the other side.<\/p>\n

I froze. Richard? What was he doing here?<\/p>\n

I pulled the door open, and there he stood, dressed like he\u2019d just come from some kind of heist movie. But it wasn\u2019t his clothes that caught my attention.<\/p>\n

It was the look on his face, tired but with a glint of something else. Mischief, maybe. Or madness. Whatever it was, it sent a shiver down my spine.<\/p>\n

\u201cRichard, what the \u2014\u201d I started, but he cut me off, pushing past me into the room like he owned the place.<\/p>\n

\u201cDenise, you look like hell.\u201d He dropped a bag on the bed, eyeing me up and down as if he expected me to start yelling or throwing things. \u201cWhich is understandable, given the circumstances.\u201d<\/p>\n

I sighed, closing the door behind him. \u201cWhat are you doing here? It\u2019s late, Richard. And\u2026 what\u2019s in the bag?\u201d<\/p>\n

He ignored my question, his eyes scanning the dingy motel room. \u201cThis place,\u201d he said, wrinkling his nose, \u201cis a dump. You can\u2019t stay here indefinitely.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not like I have a lot of options right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Richard turned to me, his expression softening. \u201cDenise, I\u2019m sorry. I didn\u2019t mean to make you feel worse.\u201d He took a breath, then let out a low, mirthless chuckle. \u201cActually, I came to make you feel better. Or at least give you a chance to.\u201d<\/p>\n

I raised an eyebrow, not sure where he was going with this. \u201cAnd how exactly are you planning to do that?\u201d<\/p>\n

He unzipped the bag, and when I saw what was inside, I felt my stomach drop.<\/p>\n

Rats. Dozens of them, squirming around in cages. My first reaction was to back away, but Richard grinned like this was the most normal thing in the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cRichard, what are you planning to do with those?\u201d<\/p>\n

He finally looked up at me, his eyes gleaming with that same mischievous light. \u201cYou and I both know we can\u2019t undo what Eric and Vanessa did. But,\u201d he paused, a sly smile playing on his lips, \u201cwe can at least have a little fun, right?\u201d<\/p>\n

Fun. That word sounded so foreign at that moment, so wrong. I stared at him, trying to understand what he was suggesting. When it finally clicked, I didn\u2019t know whether to laugh or scream.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou want revenge,\u201d I said slowly, the words tasting bitter on my tongue.<\/p>\n

Richard shrugged. \u201cRevenge, justice, call it what you want. All I know is they deserve something for what they did. And you, Denise\u2026 you deserve to get some of your power back.\u201d<\/p>\n

I looked down at the rats, my mind spinning. I wasn\u2019t the kind of person who did things like this. But then I thought of Eric\u2019s cold eyes as he told me to leave, of Vanessa\u2019s bored expression when we found them together.<\/p>\n

My chest tightened with a mix of anger and pain that was too much to hold onto any longer.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou still have the key to the house?\u201d Richard asked quietly, his voice pulling me out of my thoughts.<\/p>\n

I nodded, my heart pounding. \u201cYeah. I do.\u201d<\/p>\n

The drive to the house was quiet. Richard sat next to me, his eyes focused on the road ahead, his expression unreadable. I kept thinking about how one night could turn my life upside down in ways I never imagined.<\/p>\n

And now, here I was, about to break into my own home \u2014 no, not mine anymore \u2014 with a bag full of rats. It felt like some twisted nightmare I couldn\u2019t wake up from.<\/p>\n

When we pulled up to the house, I hesitated.<\/p>\n

But Richard was already out of the car, waiting for me to unlock the door. My hands were shaking so badly it took me three tries to get the key into the lock.<\/p>\n

The door creaked open, and I stepped inside, the familiar scent of the house hitting me like a wave. Memories flooded back but I squashed them down. This wasn\u2019t the time to break down.<\/p>\n

\u201cUpstairs,\u201d Richard whispered, nudging me forward. \u201cThey\u2019ll be asleep.\u201d<\/p>\n

We crept up the stairs, the wood creaking under our weight. When we reached the bedroom door, I froze. I could hear them breathing inside, unaware of what was about to happen. It made my blood boil.<\/p>\n

\u201cGo ahead,\u201d Richard murmured, handing me the bag. His eyes were dark, serious now. We were really going to do this.<\/p>\n

I opened the bag, my fingers trembling, and slowly tipped it over, letting the rats spill out onto the floor. They scurried off into the shadows, disappearing into the room.<\/p>\n

Richard grabbed my arm, and we bolted down the stairs, out the door, and back into the car. We sat there in silence, the tension between us electric. Then, faintly, we heard the first scream.<\/p>\n

Vanessa\u2019s voice, shrill and panicked, pierced the night air. Eric\u2019s shouts followed, angry, confused. And then Richard started laughing. It wasn\u2019t just a chuckle; it was full-on, uncontrollable laughter.<\/p>\n

I couldn\u2019t help it \u2014 I started laughing too. The sound of their fear, their panic, was like a release, breaking the tension of the horrible night.<\/p>\n

When we finally calmed down, Richard turned to me, still grinning. \u201cHow about some breakfast? There\u2019s a diner nearby that\u2019s open all night.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBreakfast?\u201d I echoed, still catching my breath. It sounded so normal after what we\u2019d just done. But normal was what I needed. Something to ground me, to make this all feel less insane.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah,\u201d I said, surprising myself with the steadiness in my voice. \u201cAnd you know what, Richard? In two days, we\u2019re going on a proper date. A real one, no rats involved.\u201d<\/p>\n

He raised an eyebrow, then slowly grinned. \u201cIt\u2019s a date.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
