She's my best friend's sister, which meant she was off-limits. But I could never keep my distance, because I had always wanted Mia. I tried hard to resist my feelings for her, yet, I couldn't. So, I walked away, thinking it was the right thing to do. Now, ten years later, I've made a name for myself. I’m a billionaire with everything I ever dreamed of—except for one thing: Mia. When I see her again, she’s not the shy girl I once knew. No, she’s confident, strong, and still the one person who has the power to make me lose control. However, she’s also cold and distant, treating me like just another client, a stranger. She has every reason to hate me. But this time, I’m not walking away.
View MorePRESENT [After the Photoshoot]Mia's POV We were sitting in Scott’s private jet. I was as far away from him as possible, my back against the seat.After everything that had happened at the photoshoot three days ago, and then the uncomfortable meeting with the woman he’d brought to my brother's birthday party to rub in my face, I needed space from him.The last two days had been jam-packed with press interviews, more shoots and foster home visits, leaving no time to talk.Today was going to be the hardest day we’d faced so far. I didn’t want to talk or think about the past, but here we were, about to face it head-on. Dylan was going home with me to California for the first time in more than ten years.I was hoping word didn’t get round this time because I wasn't in the mood to get rushed my journalists and photographers when we land. I thought I was prepared for everything, but l feel like my feelings for him started to change during that photoshoot.It was the way he looked at me wit
PAST Mia's POV It had been exactly three weeks since Dylan kissed me, and this was the first time I’d be seeing him again because he'd been avoiding me since then. I couldn't wait to see him and maybe even kiss him again. I wore a blue sundress, my heart racing as I waited for him to arrive.It was my brother's birthday, and my parents were throwing a huge party for him even though he begged them not to. I knew Dylan would be there. He wouldn’t miss his best friend's party.“You look so beautiful, Mia darling!” my mom said, stepping into my room with a smile. “And you're really starting to look like a woman.”I smiled back. Of course, I looked like a woman; l am one now.Did Dylan see me as one too?“Your brother was looking for you a few minutes ago, so I came to find you”, she added.“What did Michael want this time?” I rolled my eyes.“I can’t remember much but it's something about the fr
Dylan's POV She's trying so hard to put up a fight and ignore my pleas but my whining will break her soon enough.Mia could never ignore my requests when I acted all cute and vulnerable like a little child. She's always had a soft spot for children and so I decided to use that to my advantage somehow.She shook her head and looked away, “There's no way I'm falling for this, so just get yourself ready and let's go.” “But I wanna take pictures with my Mia,” I whined, trying to make my voice sound weak and cute, which was really hard because I'm a full-grown man now.She sighed and looked at me. “Didn't you hear what I said? Haven't you read the articles and blog posts about us? This would give them more to talk about!”“But-”“But nothing!” She looked pissed, “This doesn't affect you but it will clearly affect me in a lot of bad ways. They're going to make a huge deal out of everything and make up a lot of stories that can damage the career I'm struggling so hard to build.”I sighed;
Mia's POV “Mia, please listen…” He stepped forward with his hand stretched out to reach me.I stopped him before he could get to me. “That's enough Mr. Scott. We don't have time for this right now; we're here for business, remember?” I was getting really upset and I didn't want to suddenly burst into tears. Not here.“We're back to you calling me Mr. Scott again? what the hell do you want me to say or do to-”“I want you to stop talking nonsense and start getting ready for the photo shoot and interview.” I crossed my arms across my chest and sighed while trying to calm myself down. He was really getting on my last nerve.He scoffed then said in a childish tone, “Alright then, Mom! I'll get changed first.” He quickly removed his tie and unbuttoned his shirt.“Your clothes for the shoot aren't even here yet and you could've waited for me to leave the room first.” I shook my head and turned round to leave.“Why would you want to leave the room, Miss Jason? You've already seen me naked a
Dylan's POV She rolled her eyes and then looked at her wristwatch. "We don't have time for this, Mr Scott." She gestured at the wall clock in my office. "We have a photo shoot to get to right now before the next interview, so let's go before we miss it." She stormed out without waiting for a response.The ride there was twenty minutes of tense hell but I could understand why she was this upset. I guess I gave out too much information about our past, but I couldn't help it.When we got to the waiting room, I grabbed her hand and pulled her in close to hug her but she managed to drag her hand out of my grasp. "What the hell do you think you're doing, Mr Scott?"" I was trying to give you a hug. You used to calm down when I hugged you.""In case you may have forgotten; we're still just business partners." She sighed. "But yes, I used to. Emphasis on the used to. Now I really wish I never liked you in the first place.""Come on Mia. I know you don't mean that, you don't have to say what
Present...Mia's POV I left Dylan without responding to his sudden confession. It didn't seem genuine as far as I'm concerned, but I ended up feeling bothered. The night seemed colder and longer than usual and it was hard for me to fall asleep, so I was annoyed when my phone kept buzzing. Who the hell is texting me so early in the morning anyway?I was about to switch off my phone when my phone rang. I groaned inwardly and answered the phone. "Hello, who is it?""Oh my gosh, Mia! You're a genius, using your personal history to make headlines!" Dominique squealed."Headlines? Personal history? What are you talking about D?" I rubbed my eyes slowly."No wonder you were so confident about the whole thing. You should've just told me you already knew Mr Scott personally.""Knowing him personally isn't important but what I want to know now is why you called and how you found out I knew him before now.""Girl! It's all over the news and social media. Your sweet childhood romance with Mr Sc
Mia's POV I shook my head slowly. I must be really drunk. There's no way it's Dylan, when did he get here? How did he even know where we were? He was clearly interested in that other girl when we left, so how is he here with his arm around my waist holding me tightly against himBefore I could get myself together, Liam got angry. "Yo, what the fuck do you think you're doing?" He stepped closer to us fuming.Dylan scoffed, then said, "Pipe down you little shit! Do you really think you stood a chance with Mia? Do you think she likes you or what? Well,, let me tell you now. I'm the reason she started going out with you, I'm the reason she's drunk out of her mind and here with you now!." He pulled me in closer, adding in a low tone, "She has my attention now."Liam opened his mouth to say something but Dylan interrupted him, "Don't you dare try to talk back at me! You're really lucky her brother didn't see you running your hands all over her body. I'm going to give you a chance to get th
About 11 Years ago...Mia's POV Liam and I had been together for two months, we started dating a week after I turned seventeen. My parents liked him but Michael didn't approve of our relationship. Not like I needed his approval anyway. We walked into a house party hosted by some guy I don't know. I looked around slowly for my brother and asked Liam to help."Your brother's over there." He pointed to the left side, holding my hand to lead the way.I smiled when I spotted Dylan close to my brother; I was wearing a short pleated skirt and an off-shoulder crop top just for him.My smile faded when we got closer and I saw a girl rush over to him. I wasn't surprised, though; girls are drawn to him like moths to a flame, and he never misses the opportunity to mess around with every one of them. I wished he'd mess around with me too.At a point, I thought my crush on Dylan would fade as I grew older, but that didn't happen. Instead, it became stronger...something more. I wasn't sure it was
Mia's POV "Where are we going anyway?" I asked as my brother fastened my seatbelt for me in the backseat of his car.I had only agreed to follow my brother when I found out Dylan was coming with us. Even though he's way older than me, I couldn't help but want to be around him all the time.He's a part of our family now– because he mostly sleeps and eats here but I'm not complaining anymore. I used to be annoyed with him for getting so much attention and care from my family, but now I don't mind seeing him every day. He was being bullied by school and street kids till my brother saved him one time and decided to be his friend while teaching him self-defence. He didn't know who his parents were because he was put in foster care at a young age, but I overheard him telling Michael that he doesn't care about his biological parents, so he doesn't have a reason to find them.One time, my parents asked if they could adopt him but he said no. Michael told me it's because he feels like a burd
Mia's POV "I can't do this anymore, Mia; I'm done with you." I'm done with you? I couldn't believe what I was hearing. No. We can't be done this way. "You're done with me?" I asked sarcastically."You can't do what exactly anymore? Tell me what it is you're not doing anymore Dylan! I want to know. You know how much I like you and you know I kept my virginity for you. I kept it for you, and you gladly took it; now you're telling me you're done? Is this some sick joke?.""I'm not joking right now Mia, and you should get over this whole "I let you take my virginity" shit for f*cks sake. I didn't beg you to keep it for me and it's not anything special anyway. It was just a tight fresh p*ssy then. Now it's less tight, thanks to me", he smirked.I scoffed, feeling my cheeks heat up. "It's nothing special? Really? That's all you have to say? I can't believe this. Are you ending things because you can't stop seeing me as your best friend's sister? Is that it?"He laughed. "You sent me to t...
