He blinked like he didn’t hear right, and then his eyes widened and he reached for me again.

“No!” I yelled, my voice trembling. “No.” I could not let him do this to me. I had just gotten free. I was trying to get over him!

“Myra, I didn’t know-“

“You did, you had to have known. You knew.” I accused, and sucked in air. “Nobody can be that blind. You just ignored it because it was easier for you. Easier for your big life as a Blackwood heir. And now you’re here with a new tagline. What do you want? What is it, you feel sorry for me? Or did your grandfather give you another condition with my name in it? You can tell him I’m not interested. So you can leave me the hell alone.” He was that willing to dangle something I’ve always wanted right in my face, just so he could keep me as his little pet. It wouldn’t work on me.

“Jesus christ.” He cursed under his breath. “I didn't know, I swear. How long?”

“How long?” I laughed bitterly, “when have I not? I loved you through every demeaning comm

  • He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady   Peter Blackwood

    “I’m gonna go to the restroom.” Lily announced the second we entered the hospital I rolled my eyes but said nothing. Mum had been recovering for a week now and everytime we came here, she would find a reason to slink away and lessen the time she spent around her. Now that she was staying with me, I finally understood what Hannah meant when she said Lily had withdrawn. There were no snappy retorts or even petty fights. She’d been with me nearly a week and not one surface was covered in glitter. I could tell Angie was trying to coax her out of her shell with food but that was not working, which meant I had a lot more to eat and that was a suitable arrangement for me as stress eating had become my new favorite past time. Everytime I caught myself thinking about him, I would shove my face with cookies, enchiladas, gelato or whatever meal Angie had prepared. Even at work. What that meant was that I was eating ALOT,I hadn’t heard from him in a week. I suppose I should be happy about i

    “I’m sorry.” “You’ve said that several times already. I don’t care. So go back in there, tell mum good bye, feel free to add an elaborate excuse why you have to leave and don’t come back.” I crossed my arms on my chest and kept my eyes on a nurse as she passed by the both of us with a small smile, nodding to Pierce briefly.He bought a whole ass hospital, and there I was thinking he just gave a donation. Did he buy it because I was going to have his child or he loved me a at that time. No more thoughts about it. Dwelling on it was bad. It didn’t matter what he did to Pierce went into the room and I waited out, tension emanating from my shoulders as I waited for him to come back out.“So this is it, you’re leaving?” I asked when he came back out. “Yeah, you’re getting what you want.”I sigh of relief escaped my lips. “Good.”He turned to go but stopped, facing me again. “When you say loved, how long ago, when do you think you stopped loving me?”I shrugged, “does it matter?”Pierce

    My eyes looked like they would pop out of my head with the way I was glaring, and infuriating, he gave in and grinned at me. “How do you manage to make anger look so fucking sexy?” He asked, stepping close to me, “go on a date with me…” “Are you sane?!” I backed away from him, not bothering with subtlety. “Did you perhaps hit your head on your way here?” “I’m perfectly fine, Honestly I’ve never been better.” “And you think you’ll ask me on a date and I’ll say yes?” “With a little more convincing, yes.” So fucking cocky, I-I can’t. I blew air out of my system and turned my angry eyes at him. “If I wasn’t clear enough the last time, I will be clear now. Stay away from my mother, stay away from me, I. Don’t. Want. To SEE YOU…” “AND I completely understand that.” I eyed him suspiciously, “but,” there it was, “you’re a famous actress Myra, you will get invited to a lot of events I get invited to, which means one way or another, we’ll always meet.” Ignoring the space I had put bet

    Lily said nothing to me the rest of our stay in the hospital, only shooting me glances when she thought I wouldn’t notice. I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs to her that there was nothing going on between me and Pierce! That he had a big mouth, yes, but I wasn’t stupid enough to go back to him. No matter what new love confession he came up with. He likes to watch me…a blush crept on my face and my hands froze over the flowers I was arranging. Every single word he utter flooded into my memory, feeling me with a giddy joy. I could just picture him pacing the office, or looking out the window. He ended a meeting to watch me! I wanted to squeal like a cheerleader! A small object hit the top of my head, drawing me out of my thoughts. “Lily!” Mum scolded. My sister shrugged and flattened another piece of paper she had rolled into a ball, ready to aim at me again. “Mum’s been calling you for hours.” “A couple seconds at best. Are you alright?” No. I was not. I had loved

    My alarm went off beside my bed and I groaned, stretching out my arm to turn it off. I would’ve had at least three more hours of sleep if I was going to visit mum, but O’Malley wanted us on set today. There were in post production stages and he had a couple scenes that he wanted us to redo, so we had to get in early. Finally my hand connected with the off button and I clicked it, rolled to the edge of the bed before I swung my feet down and walked to the bathroom. I was a lot more awake after my shower. With my hair held up by a claw clip and body clad in simple jeans and a sweater, I entered the living room. Two bodies lay under the covers in the dark. Lily and…I squinted and moved closer to them. Donna. Makes sense, they were both still watching Tv when I returned by two in the morning. I ran my hand through Lily’s hair affectionately before I left the house. Yawning, I raised my hand to cover my mouth. In hindsight I should not have stayed out that long with Carter, knowing I

    Pierce was at the parking lot the next morning. “We had a deal.” I said attempting to cross my arms which was made difficult by the bags I was carrying. “You said not to force you into my car, or threaten you, but you didn’t say I could not come here.” There it was. The loophole. “Is your leather aficionado giving you a ride today, or will you take mine? We don’t even have to talk throughout the ride.” He said in a pleading voice. I frowned at him. The way he insisted on inserting himself into my life now. If he liked me before, then why had he never shown this level of optimism? “I had a better idea.” I answered, as I glanced behind him. I had a feeling that Pierce might show up today too, and when I spilled the beans to Carter about him coming to my apartment, he immediately gave me an offer I couldn’t resist. Just in time, a black Nissan sports car pulled into the parking lot and stopped, blocking the exit of other cars. It didn’t matter how he parked, we were leaving soon

    Alarms were a thing of the past for me, and this particular morning, I wanted to sleep in till we had to get dressed and visit mum. She had gotten a lot more better, and was now trusted to use a cane to move around the gardens to look at the daisies and see how they were coming up.One more week had passed since I had last been on set. I had only met with Madame Camille and her assistants to get my measurements and compare the effects of certain fabrics on my skin tone. I knew O’Malley and the press team were working on a system I would use in the following weeks for the publicity interviews and I both dreaded and looked forward to it. Suddenly the doors to my room burst open, snapping me awake. I groaned and rolled, covering the top half of my face with my blanket. “Wake up bitch!” Lily yelled at me. I heard Angie tutting disapprovingly behind her, before I opened my eyes. Lily plopped on the bed and dragged me up before placing a small pointy hat on my head, letting the st

    Hannah shrugged and glanced across the room to Damien who was talking to Roberto. “Because you look at Damien and me now and think we’re so perfect, but it wasn’t always like this between us. I-“ she sighed, “I’ve failed him before, and I thought there was no coming back from that. That he would hate me forever and that would be the end of us. Imagine if that happened Myra, I wouldn’t have the love of my life.” She finished in a slightly lower tone, her eyes never leaving Damien. It sounded unreal. That she and Damien, the man I had watched dot on her like she was his star, ever had a problem big enough to end them. She turned to me.“So maybe I am pushing Pierce on you a tad, but I know what it feels like to be in his shoes. I’ve seen you both together, Myra, and I know there’s something there. When the whole world believed there was a ten percent chance you were together, I thought it was fifty. Or that something would happen in the future. I’m not asking you to forgive him now, I

  • He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady   Unraveling yarn

    Myra’s POV I slept soundly till the sound of my ringing phone woke me up. It couldn't be morning yet, could it? I wondered as I reached through the sheets for my cell. Three days had passed since the accident and I spent most of it in the house staying in a sour mood. Hannah had stopped by the day after the accident to ask if I really wanted Heidi. For the right reasons. I had gotten upset at the question, but answered sincerely. I had thought about it. And I wasn’t getting her as a replacement for Yvette, which I knew they all thought. Even Lily. All she did was sigh and told me she would help me, because she had contacts. So for three days. I had been hovering around the house, waiting. I took a second to check the time, sitting upright when I read the caller ID. “Hello?” I asked, all traces of sleep leaving my eyes. It was one in the morning and I was getting a call from my mother’s hospital. That did not hold a promise for good things. “Hi. Myra Thompson. So sorry for

    Pierce‘s POVHe was driving, but he wasn’t sure where. He had had to keep moving. Far away. where she would not look at him like he was the last person she wanted to see on earth. Crazy how it wasn’t the first time, but this time, at that hospital it sank in. Maybe because he had seen how close she and Carter had gotten. Or the fact that she didn’t want to see him after her accident while he was on the edge of hysteria with worry. All he had wanted to do was touch her. To convince his frantic heart that she was still there. She was safe and out of harm's way, but she could barely even look him in the face. He had fucked things up, so bad. For years he had been in love with her without knowing what it was. He’d catch himself watching her while they were in the apartment. An escape, No, he was falling right at her feet with love. When he read that text message she’d sent about them being over he had sent him into a panic. One he had not been ready to admit to. Admitting to it, was ad

    “Pierce…” his name slipped out of my mouth before Incould stop it. Hannah crushed me in her arms unperturbed.“I was so worried, when Carter called and told me about the accident, I thought…God I’m so hlad you’re okay!” I forced my eyes away from Pierce and focused on Hannah. “I’m fine I promise.”“What is he doing here?” Carter muttered. I was painfully aware of him approaching the bed. With determined steps till Carter blocked his path to me. “What do you think you’re doing?” He challenged Pierce. “I just need to make sure she’s okay.” He answered in a dejected tone. I swallowed, my chest felt like it was caving in at the weight of my emotions. On one end, I wanted to cry into anybody’s shoulder, really. But I also wanted to tell him that the reason my heart was breaking was because I watched a random stranger die. And even though she was a grown woman with her own child. The feeling that pounded in my chest was the same as how I felt when I was holding Yvette’s lifeless body in

    When the medics came, I moved away from the car, my eyes still glued to the wreckage. Nicole had only passed out, I told myself. It wasn’t a big deal, they would get her out of there and take her to the hospital. A tiny body ran past me, and was grabbed by one of the attending first responders. “Mummy!” Heidi cried as she struggled in his arms. I tose to my feet quickly and walked up to them. “Take her to the ambulance and check her wounds, see if there’s anything major.” Another medic told the one holding her. “Give her to me. I’ll take her.” When I glanced at the car, I saw that the men working were placing a took under the car to keep it from collapsing further. On the other side, two men stood with a plier like object. They wanted to cut into it, I realized. “You’re the one the caller told us about? You got the girl out?” The guy holding crying Heidi asked. I nodded and reached for her. Her fingers tightened around the fabric of my dress, nearly pulling it off my b

    As I opened my eyes a blinding light pierced through my skull. I winced and shut them, then shifted away from it when I realized that my body was pressed to hard asphalt. The air was thick with the smell of smoke and burnt rubber.“She’s awake.” Someone yelled as I moved up to my hands which were peppered with scratches and cuts. I could feel a blinding headache building in the back of my head, but ignored it as I looked at my surroundings. The cab I had been in was farthest from me, it’s front end pretty mangled with a broken and blood stained windshield. I looked on the ground next to me to find the driver, unconscious and bloodied, but his stomach rose and fell as he breathed so I knew he was alive.I let my eyes fall on the worse of the accident. The small car we had hit was barely recognizable with the bus parked on top of it. I rose up on unsteady feet and moved closer to the damage. “Everyone step back.” A man yelled, shoving the people closest away. “But there’s a kid in t

    Myra’s POVThe rest of the evening went in a blur for me. The announcement, toasts, more introductions…I had retreated so far into my head that Carter had to remind me repeatedly to smile, or nudge me when to do something other than nod at people’s words. He had tired sometime later of reminding me to smile, that he began giving the excuse that I was very exhausted and had not gotten a good rest since my movie premiere. I just hummed and nodded in agreement to that too.“What’s wrong?” He asked in the car when I had not said anything for a while. “You just spaced out halfway through the evening. You didn’t even show any interest when I introduced you to Stuart Dewald. That man can place you just as high as O’Malley di-““When did O’Malley say he wanted me to stop acting?” I asked and turned away from the window. He glanced at the driver of the limousine through the rearview mirror before looking at me again. “What are you talking about?”“When we were chatting with your parents, you

    Forget what I said about not being nervous. My heart pounded in my chest the farther he led me into the room. Why was I nervous? We were not officially dating. Everything’s cool. I whispered to myself, trying to play it off. I just chewed out a Blackwood, I should be feeling unstoppable.We approached a group of three and I relaxed at the sight of Jace. “Mother, father,” Carter said, slowing to a halt behind them. The couple backing us turned their attention from Jace. “I want you to meet Myra.”A warm smile was spread across both their faces causing mine to be more natural. Jace and Carter, were a carbon copy of their father. “Myra, this is my dad Gregory and my beautiful mother, Alicia.”“Oh!” His mother exclaimed, smacking Carter on his shoulder. “Don’t flatter me so much.” She chortled before turning her attention to me. “Myra. It’s nice to meet you. We’ve heard all about you.”“Hopefully It’s all good.” I joked.Alicia chuckled, “mostly, you work with Jace yes? I owe you congra

    What happens when you’re angry and trying to find a restroom? You get lost. I passed the same medieval armor ensemble three times before I accepted my fate. Or what if it was a different armors?I narrowed my eyes at it. I wonder if that guy was a regular person who had gotten lost, died and was now part of the exhibit. “Todd would you mind pointing me in the right direction? I don’t wanna end up like you.” I muttered at the armor statue, before I glanced left and then right. I sighed and went back the way I had come from. At least the way I thought I had come from. I was sure I had not come across any of the pieces I passed. I stopped infront of two paintings of two men, one posing for the painting fully clothed in 16th century garb with a larger than life codpiece. In contrast, a nude man in the next painting done in Greek style, was reading a book, his own member barely there. “In my head, I think these two would’ve been great friends.” I said aloud my voice echoing down the h

    I had never seen a much bigger building in my life. I looked at the building where the Dionet party was holding and felt truly small. The building was a lot larger than a stadium with a roof that slanted upwards, ending in a sharp point. And covered in dark glass from the bottom walls to the top. I felt like in the morning it would be very daunting, but tonight not only did it carry the air of superiority, but of mystery. It told me that it hold stories passed down for centuries that it was willing to share if I just went through it’s double doors. How had I stayed in this city this long and not know about this place?Carter placed his had on my bare back and my focus turned to him. “Just letting you know again that you’re absolutely stunning tonight.”I looked down at my golden silk dress which simmered in the low lights that brightened the small walkway, the material draping elegantly over my curves. The true showstopper though was the daringly deep backless design that plunged dram
