I boarded the plane with my mistress, certain my wife was hundreds of miles away.
Then she appeared at the cabin door in her flawless flight attendant uniform and handed me a glass.
“Champagne,” Dakota said calmly, “to celebrate the secret trip you invented?”
My entire body froze.
Beside me, Trinity tightened her grip on my arm. She looked from Dakota to me, her confident smile breaking apart.
“What did she just say?” Trinity whispered.
I could not answer.
Dakota was my wife. That morning, I had texted her that I was on my way to Nashville for a business meeting. In reality, I was boarding a first-class flight from Miami to Florence with another woman.
Dakota did not cry. She did not shout. She simply stepped aside with a polished smile.
“Welcome aboard,” she said. “Please enjoy your flight.”
For seven years, everyone believed I was the perfect husband. I brought flowers to family dinners, posted anniversary photos, and called Dakota my greatest blessing.
But behind that image, I had built another life.
Trinity was a public relations consultant I met at a corporate event. At first, it was drinks. Then dinners. Then weekends I claimed were business trips. Now I was taking her to Italy using money from the company account.
I thought Dakota would never find out.
I was wrong.
Trinity lifted her chin, trying to recover. “Could you bring us champagne later?”
Dakota smiled at her.
“Of course, ma’am.”
That single word struck harder than an insult.
I wanted to explain, but passengers were waiting behind us. Dakota pointed toward the aisle.
