He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Hallucinations
I couldn’t sleep. But I blamed it on my busy day on set. I tossed again before deciding that a midnight snack would do me a world of good. I checked my phone as I grabbed it off the nightsatand.Three A.M.I wore my inside slippers. They were quiet. And it was better than going all that way barefoot. I paused at the threshold and glanced at Pierce’s corner. I pictured him in bed, with the sheets tangled up around his legs.I held the banister and went down the stairs slowly.He could be in his office working. Maybe he would be on his computer. Would he be shirtless? Maybe only in briefs because it was past midnight.I let out an exasperated breath. Pierce, naked should not be a concern of mine. He could be working in a frog costume for all I cared. I was serious about the no sex deal. Doing that meant there would be no more portraits of me with my emotions shining in my eyes. I envisioned Pierce studying my face. Committing every ridge and sweat glistening on my skin so he could r

“I’m guessing you’re here for the same reason I am.” he said.“I couldn’t sleep. Needed a snack.” I answered gruffly.“That clearly isn’t going great.” He pulled out an already opened bag of chips while I dumped the gelato regrettably down the sink. He leaned on the counter leaned on the counter, holding the chip bag invitingly.Could he not turn it out into a bowl or something?That would make sure I would not brush his hand accidentally.I let out a sigh. I was being a child acting like I could not eat out of a bag Pierce was holding without physically combusting.I trudged to him, hesitated, before I dipped my hand in to fish for chips. We crunched in silence. “How long did it take you to make the painting?” I blurted out, stunning myself.Shit, I should not have said it out loud.He shrugged, “A couple of weeks. You were a very helpful muse.”“I wasn’t given an option.”“Do you want me to pay you?” He asked casually.Of course. He assumed it was about money. “What if I said I w

“I have no right, he repeated.One more step and there was barely any space between us.A shiver of thrill went through me. Pierce glowered in anger, but I could see arousal too. I preferred this to his usual blank expression. The need to see him like that pushed me to speak.“I’m not your property, Pierce. You have your life outside of this house and so do I.”“What do you want outside of me?” He growled, his head lowering. If I pushed off my toes, I knew our lips would touch. My heart thudded in my chest loudly. How would I answer his question? Pierce had always been everything I wanted, even after we were through, I did not think it would be possible to meet someone and fall in love like the way I had done with him. His eyes were dark, nearly black as he watched my confused expression. He grabbed my waist roughly and turned me so my back was to him and my hands on the counter for support. The air crackled with sexual tension, very different from how it was mere seconds ago. Thi

“I want to fuck Pierce.” I announced to Hannah the second my butt was in a booth with her. An innocent customer glanced at our table before hurrying along. “Damn sweety, at least let the food get here.” Hannah’s face lit up with an intrigued smile. She placed both hands on the table, under her chin and leaned in.“You look too happy to hear this.” I said dryly.“Of course I am. I have been missing out on juicy Pierce details because you had been so secretive. If you want to talk now, I am all ears. So you want to bone him, tell me all about it.”I let out an exasperated sigh and shifted in my seat. “I mean you know what he looks like. And then I see him in the house all…normal.” I spat the last word out like it was poison. “I still don’t get why you can’t…” someone passed by the table and Hannah’s voice dropped an octave lower, “fuck him.”“We both thought it was smart to end the physical part of the relationship.” She already knew how complicated things were already. “He’s still hi

“It’s not a bracelet sweety, I mean it could be called that, I guess you’re right, it IS a bracelet.”“Okay?”“Yeah, but this one doesn’t go around the wrist.” She wriggled her eyebrows. “It’s a cock ring.”“A what ring?”“A cock ring. You slide this one down the shaft and it basically squeezes it. Damien LOVES the sensa-““Nope, absolutely not! That’s enough information, you’ve gotten what you wanted, let’s go.”“Oh come on, we’re bonding!” She yelled to my retreating back, even though she followed behind me. The cashier looked between the both of us, amused. She dropped the two items on his table with a smile, while I tried to keep my eyes down. “That looks great, does it come together or is it removable?” Hannah asked, and I reacted out of instincts. My eyes landed on what seemed to be the centerpiece of the cashier table.Oh god. Oh god, oh god.There was a big-no giant penis stuck onto the table and yeah, it was a show stopper on its own but spikes? It was decorated with small
Last Updated : 2024-10-16He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Angie the God of facial expressions
I finally understood what had distracted Derek: Pierce’s arrival.He could’ve atleast, given me a warning. Now Angie would present whatever sex toy was in the box to her ‘master’ and I would have to endure judgemental looks from Pierce AND Angie.When I turned to look at him, my breath caught in my throat. He was back in his dark suit getup with a shirt that had a few buttons undone. He was toying with said button as he looked straight at Angie. “Don’t tell me what?” He asked again. Oh dear/“Don’t tell you…” Angie started, “…that she had missed a dose today.” I turned to look at Angie. Both of her hands were behind her back like they were crossed, not hiding a box of a possibly ginormous dildo. Her expression? Bored.I wished I could look as cool headed as she did. As it was, I was bright red and reading to flee.Pierce glanced at the watch on his wrist, irritation marring his brows. Good to know a conversation about me was ticking him off. Pun unintended. The grandpa jokes were fo

I took my phone with me to the bathroom.One look in, and I figured I might as well run a bath. I had nothing else to do for the day. Soaking would be good for my nerves.I opened my messages.They were both from the same person. My eyes narrowed into slits as I expanded the text from Hannah.‘Did you like your not so little present?’ She texted with double wink emojis.‘Bet you’re having too much fun to respond.’I shook my head in disapproval as I typed out a response. ‘Fun? I’m busy trying not to get caught with that thing!’I checked the water in the bath to make sure it was at a good temperature. A new message entered my phone a second later.‘After you do that, HAVE fun. A world of pleasure awaits you’ more wink emojis.“I swear to God.” I said out loud, then chuckled. ‘You know you’re a bad influence.’New message, ‘you’re welcome.’ Underneath that one; ‘Rumors of the Destan show wanting to interview you and your acting buddies.’My heart skipped a beat. Barely looking at wha

TAMI…“So, he’s actually letting her stay with him?”“That what I can tell from the situation.” A voice messed up by static responded from Tami phone. She had been enjoying a glass of wine in her family’s living room when her mole had called with day ruining new. “Her bodyguard is ex-CIA. Definitely not someone she can afford on her own.” They continued. Tami squeezed the phone tighter in her hand. She had suspected it but wasn’t sure. So Pierce had found out about the pregnancy AND was reacting fine- even more than that.“You’re sure she’s living with him?” She asked the person in the line. “Yes, I already told you that. I went on her phone and the messages with her manager-Tami…”The person hesitated. “I can’t do this anymore, Myra’s a friend to me.”“You didn’t think about that when needed money did you.” Tami snapped, “I’ll call you when I need you.” She ended the call abruptly, now pacing around the room. Suddenly she screamed and pushed the wine glass she had on the table.

He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Starting over
Pierce was in his office typing away when I woke later that morning. I knew that because I heard the clack of his computer through the open door that connected the room to his office.I strolled to the office and leaned on the connecting doorway. “Heyy.” He looked up from the computer and smiled.I crossed the threshold and climbed in his lap. Melting as he kissed me and caressed my back. “Was wondering when you’d wake up.”I spied an open novel with a red cover hidden among his thing and I reached for it. An instant smile spread across my face when I read the title.“You got your own daddy manual! Did you force Angie to buy one for you?”“No, I forced Trevor to buy three.”I giggled. “Good for you.”Are you up for getting your painting done now?” He rubbed my bare thigh affectionately.“I was wondering when you’d ask.”When I entered the art room, it looked slightly different. There was a pretty looking boudoir chair close to the window and a big easel and stool in front of it.“Whe
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Workout
I got up quickly, suddenly wide awake, and slipped into my fluffy slippers. “Ready.”“No you’re not.” He said simply.I frowned and looked down at my outfit. I didn’t know there was a dress code for fangirling. “What do you want me to wear?”“Honestly, preferably nothing, but I’m not trying to lose my mind so some yoga clothes will have to do.”“You want me to dress up just to watch you?”“Oh so that’s what you had in mind.” He chuckled. “Let me rephrase it then, would you like to join me in the gym. To workout. I mean you get to watch me but you’ll lift a barbell while you’re at it.”“I’m not really a sports person.” I grumbled.“I’m not asking you to do a long jump, Myra. Just put on some yoga pants and come downstairs.”He left before I could start arguing. My book did say, exercise was good. Plus nothing could be tougher than the poses I had to do during yoga. And, I got to ogle Pierce while at it.Convinced, I switched my pajamas for fitting leggings and a tank top, wore my fluff
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Offense to defense
“Let go of my sister!” I yelled when I got to them.“She’s a thief. I caught her snooping around Pierce’s office!”“I was looking for Myra!” Lily yelled back. “In Mr Blackwood documents.”“What were YOU doing in their bedroom?” Lily countered.“I came up to find your sister of course, she has meds up take remember?”“Let go of her hand!” I asked again. “My sister is not a thief.”“Of course you’d take her side. You’re sisters afterall.” She said the word ’sisters’ like it was a degoratratory. “I don’t know what Mr Blackwood was thinking, having a child with you.”In a burst of anger I struck her cheek,and I stood frozen, shocked by my own outburst.“You hit me?” Ruth glared at me with disbelief and anger boiling behind her eyes. “I’m sorry I…” I swallowed my apology, “let go of my sister.”With a scathing look, she shoved Lily’s hand away and stomped downstairs in a huff. When I turned to face Lily, she said as rubbing her hand delicately. “What were you doing in Pierce’s office?”
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Guards down
Later that night Pierce curled up against me. I pressed my back into him and shut my eyes. After I left the art room, he had stayed a while before moving into his office where he stayed the rest of the day. I, on the other hand, gathered the snacks Angie had given me, and spent the rest of the day curled up in bed reading- that was until I started drifting off and Pierce joined me. “Finished your book yet?” He asked in my ear. “Not yet. Reading isn’t one of my strong suits. Especially self help books. But I’m pushing through, thanks for asking.” “What have you learnt so far?” I rooted in my mind for a non traumatizing fact I could remember. “It’s better to have the baby squatting than on my back. But most hospitals insist on laying down so…”-I shrugged- “doesn’t really matter.” “We’ll see about that.” “How was your painting?” “Turns out it was a vagina-ish drawing.” I giggled. “I like it anyway, so I added a couple other flowers, painted and called it a day.” “We both did good
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Peeping Tom
It didn’t come as a shock that when I woke up he was gone. I wondered if he was still in the house, or had left for work. I went from hating when he was home to hating when he wasn’t, and I wasn’t sure when that change had happened. I stood up with the intention to look for him but changed my mind and decided to shower and brush instead. When I was through, I curled up in bed cradling my new book with a weird sense of excitement. I was so engrossed in it that I didn’t notice when Pierce entered the room, till he snatched it from my hands.“Hey!” I squealed. “The mama natural... cool.”He was wearing gym shorts and a tank top, and his body glistened with sweat. Pierce had a wonderful physique but his body appeared a little more toned of recent. He gave me back my book and I stopped ogling him.“Is there a dad version of that?” He asked casually, as he moved towards the bathroom. “I donno. Angie gave it to me.” I bragged, “and then she hugged me.” His brows furrowed, “I’m not big
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Fairies and dreams
I took my first step forward and felt an arm pull me in the opposite direction. “Hey little lady.” Pierce called. “Let’s not go that way.”“But my mum, she’s calling me.” Why was everywhere so freaking dark??“Open you eyes, love.” Open my- ohI did as I was told. To find Pierce looking at me, white as a ghost. My shoulder’s sagged, “I was sleepwalking again.” I could faintly remember my mum calling me. But she was in a hospital far away, and probably alone. “I have a favor to ask.” I started when Pierce led me back to the room.“Tell me.”“My mum, she’s alone there and I don’t want her to get hurt.”“I know Myra. I assigned security details to her room. She is safe.” I sighed in relief and climbed back into bed. “You in the other hand are a tough nut. I might have to tie a bell around your leg. You were very quiet today.”“I’m sorry, I didn’t want to wake anyone up?” That’s what was going through my head. “Maybe a house arrest collar would be more dignified-what are you doing?”“
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Unemotionally emotional
Never was there a doubt in my head that I was anything but a stand in, of course towards the end of our relationship- end meaning when Tami returned-I began to think that he liked me for me.“Jealousy looks good on you.” He answered with a shrug. I furrowed my brows. He had said those exact words that night. But I didn’t pay attention to it because it rivaled everything I knew about him. Pierce didn’t do jealousy, or possessiveness. Not when he was on the receiving end of it.“You like it when I was jealous?”“That’s your fourth question, I think I’ve been charitable.” All I was left with was more questions. If he didn’t date me for Tami, it meant he dated me for me. Which was fucking annoying because I spent the majority of our time together trying to fit whatever mold she’d left in his heart. And it raised more questions on why he still insisted on keeping me around even though he was certain he was getting married to Tami! I took a deep breath, let it out, and when that wasn’t e
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady tête-à-tête
“Lily.” I called, going in to comfort her, but then she noticed my bloodied shirt. “What happened to you?”“Someone stabbed me when I went to the studio.”Her eyes widened, “dad?”“No, it was a woman.” She stepped out of the room and clasped me in a hug. “I’m glad you’re okay.”“Me too, I don’t want you going out.”“Alright.” She agreed immediately.“I’m sorry dad showed up.”“It was gonna happen sooner or later. I’m sorry about your interview.”“No harm done. Sweetie.”“I’m also sorry I didn’t do more after your nightmare. I didn’t know what to do-“I held her face with my good hand. “It’s not your job to know.” She nodded. “Do you wanna hang out with me? Pierce is ordering pizza.”“No, I think I’m gonna take a nap.”I understood she still needed time alone to process. “I’m over there. If you need me.”Pierce was back in the room when I returned, he was arranging two boxes of sweet smelling pizza and a sealed cup with mango smoothie. My heart softened at the gesture. I didn’t thi
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Sorry I got blood on your couch
The sound of sirens started and panic really spread among the crowd. The group scattered in different directions pushing me from side to side. While I followed with my injured arm pinned to my side and the other clutching my wound to stop the bleeding. In the chaos I saw Derek ripping people out of the way to get to me.“Shit!” He cursed when he saw all the blood. “It’s not a big wound, I just bleed a lot.” I assured him as men in uniform jogged to the area, and tackled some of the reporters. There were grunts and the sound of bodies hitting the ground around me, not to mention the moans of people who got trampled on, while trying to make their escape.I grabbed Derek with my bloodied hand to draw his attention to me. “I want to go home.” He eyed my arm again. “Please.” He nodded reluctantly and led me to the car, which was parked at the back of the building for some reason. The drive home was the most tense and quickest ride of my life, and I did not mind it one bit.“We’ll have
