He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Gorjus
“Today really sucks huh?” Hannah sympathized. I let out a disgruntled breath in response. Since I joined her at our spot, I had planted my head permanently on the table with my eyes closed. To open them would mean I acknowledged my existence, and if I did, then my thoughts would stray to my evening with Pierce. And God, I wanted nothing more than to forget how willingly I gave myself to him. “And you refuse to tell me what Pierce did this time?” She poked my arm with a perfectly manicured finger.“I don’t wanna talk about it.” My voice came out muffled.“Gelato?”I propped my head up with my palms and watched as she gently pushed a bowl towards me. Pistacchio flavored. I grabbed a spoon.“You’re not ready to talk about Pierce, so let’s talk about work.”I let out a defeated groan and planted my head on the table again. Hannah chuckled, “Oh come on.”“My life so far has been one mistake after the other.”“Oof, that’s a bit harsh.”I raised my head. “I went through my script, Hannah
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady The underdogs
I shrugged and pulled him along. The conference room contained over two dozen people. Excitement buzzed the air as we all waited for O’Malley’s briefing. “Oh my God, that’s Sophia Bennett!” Jeremy gasped, tapping me in excitement. “She was in my favorite show. Too bad they had to end it prematurely. And now I’ll never know if Brady was in love with Sylvia or Jesse.” He sighed dramatically.“You could ask her.”“Why didn’t t I think of that?”I chuckled and glanced around the room in search of one man.“O’Malley’s not here?”“He was, but he had a bad coughing fit and left for a bit. But he’ll be out in…” -he checked his phone- “two minutes.”“How about Jace? I can’t see him.”“He stepped out after O’Malley. Speak of the devil.”I turned towards the door and found Jace weaving his way to us at a leisurely pace. He stopped beside me. “Room looks fuller than when I left.”“How’s your sister by the way?” Jeremy asked. “I heard we’re shooting stunt scenes first. We could sneak her in on o
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady What it takes to make a master piece
I blinked rapidly, no I wasn’t seeing things, it was really her.“Did you say… assistant director?” I asked. Her eyes met mine, accompanied by a gentle unsure smile. I understood why she glanced in my direction before introducing Tami. If she had done her research, then she had probably seen the rumors about me and Pierce.“Yeah, apparently her parents encouraged her to put her degree to use. I can’t tell if she approached O’Malley or he approached her.” She shrugged. “But I have a hunch that says she’s one of the sponsors for this film.”Sophia spoke animatedly while Tami smiled sweetly and listened. I stopped hearing Bianca’s words, the ringing in my ear, overshadowing the noise around me. So far Tami had only wielded Pierce’s attention to hurt me, both of us on set would be bad for me.My mind flashed to my evening with Pierce and I winced. Was this going to be a regular for the three of us?“Okay everyone, grab a seat around the table.” Rhonda announced. I didn’t notice when O’Ma
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Let’s be normal
O’Malley’s words had brewed a new worry for me, and for the dozenth time during my pregnancy I got nervous. As Lily got ready in the room, I chatted with Hannah in the kitchen. I moved my head to the side to make sure Lily wasn’t coming out before I raised my top up to show her my belly.“Look at me, do I look pregnant to you?”“Myra, I just think you have a little Houdini, it’s perfectly normal. A simple google search would tell you that.” she scrolled through her phone. “This is like a cryptic pregnancy.”“Isn’t that like, bad?” “No, I don’t think so…”She tugged on the hem of her T-shirt and my eyes were drawn to the texts scrawled across. ‘I watch you while you sleep.’ A gift from Damien, no doubt. These two were kooky. “You should see a doctor if it’s bothering you so much. They’ll put your fears to rest.”“I know, this week had me choked up with rehearsals. I’m glad it’s over, and I’ve made an appointment already.“My phone rang in my bag and I rushed to get it. With reh
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady What really is normal?
The room went deadly silent. A nurse passed outside the door with a trolley before a word was uttered. “P-pregnant?” Mum asked, wide-eyed.I nodded. Lily chortled. She looked at my sober expression, chuckled again, and resumed flipping her magazine. “I am.” I deadpanned. Lily ignored me while mum laughed, her eyes shining“Tiny? You’re pregnant. Well are you sure-how long have you known?”“A couple weeks.” I smiled. Lily finally put down her paper and frowned at me. “You’re actually serious.”Excitement built in my chest. “Yes. You’re gonna be an aunt soon.”“Oh Myra!” Mum arms went around me, startling me. She squeezed my shoulders tightly. “And I’m gonna be a grandmother.”I chuckled, relief flooding my chest. They were taking the news better than I expected. Lily looked confused for a few more second before she stretched to hug me too.“You’re actually pregnant? No faking.” she whispered on last time. “No faking.” I whispered back.“Boy or girl?”Mum released me so she could
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Thoughts in pretty little heads
I spared at glance at my stunt double as she did a backflip to escape her ‘enemies’I was in luck today, because the rehearsal didn’t require any emotional acting from us today. Just for the actors to find their groove with the doubles.All I could think about was my sister and mum and Genevieve…Jeremy nudged my shoulder. “You okay?”I forced a smile to my face. “Yeah.”“It’s last days of rehearsals she’s probably worried about it.” Bianca concluded on my behalf. “From next week we start the real thing.” She bounced on the spot. “And we make possible movie history.” Jace added, stopping beside us. He hoisted himself up the speakers we were sitting on, his arms sheened with sweat. While the rest of us had stunt doubles at ATLEAST one point of the film, Jace had opted to do his own stunts. I thought of O’Malley’s admission the last time we spoke. He was counting on this movie being a part of movie history. “Okay people, great job so far. That will be all for today, see you next week
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady I spy
“Nahh, that’s something that takes years of practice.” I argued. “You don’t just wake up one day and think you can perform stunts, this shit isn’t parkour.”Bianca burst into hearty laughter, while Jeremy grinned.“I’m just saying, Take Jace for example, he doesn’t have any training and he’s doing great.” Jeremy argued back.“I’ve always suspected that fucker of secretly being a government spy. That would explain a lot.” My friends laughed. “But I bet, if they needed a scene where he had to act fast, like protect his head from getting hit while, making it look like he did. He would get seriously hurt. Even stunt doubles get hurt.”“Whatever wound he gets would match the next scenes.”“Yeah but they have to be gone in record time. Did you forget we’re quick healing wolves?” Bianca added, waving her hand mystically.“Boy would I kill for that type of skill in real life. It would save me from a lot of dance injuries.”“You dance?” Bianca and I asked simultaneously.I remembered the fril

I watched O’Malley with a worried expression as he was escorted offset by Rhonda. He had managed the whole day without incident, but his body had definitely reached its limit. “This is the best first day ever. We did pretty well today.” Jeremy said with a grin. He did not have any scenes today but O’Malley said it was fine for him to show up. I had swung my bag over my shoulder before Tami in a black blazer and cargo pants jogged into the set. Lucky me, for the entire day, I had no personal interactions with her. But throughout my scenes I could feel her eyes burning into my back. But of course they would, she was the assistant director. She had to watch our every moves. If I kept up with my paranoia, I would turn into my mother. I recalled my conversation with Lily where she asked about of being crazy like mum. “Okay people!” Tami clapped her hands to get our attention. “O’Malley thinks there’s time for us to shoot one more scene before you leave. We’re gonna need M

He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Heart to heart
Lily pushed off the couch and climbed up the stairs without a backward glance. I guess we we’re back to fighting again.Angie tugged me forward. “No use standing here, let’s have some tea.”I followed numbly, still feeling the sting of getting yelled at by Pierce. His mother’s reaction I could understand but even now, Pierce did not respect me. He didn’t think I was important enough to be present during a conversation about MY child. I heard the faint sound of Elizabeth yelling as she forced into a stool. Angie pushed a cup towards me few minutes after. “Chamomile. Drink.”“Thanks.” I croaked, using the tea to soothe the feelings that were stuck.Would my child really be born to a family that would not accept her. A bastard, Elizabeth had called her.“She’s not always like this.” Angie said suddenly, “Elizabeth is a woman with a fierce temper, and with a temper like that, she says very hurtful things. Your pregnancy came at a very sensitive point in the Blackwood family.”“Yeah, I
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Like mother, like son
Myra’s POVI knew Pierce was still home. I found that out after I tiptoed down the stairs and heard him having a conversation on his cell. I went back up of course, but I knew I could avoid him so long.Pierce had caught me masturbating. Even worse, he heard me say his name, and THEN, invite him to come to bed with me, although for the last part, I could argue that I didn’t say it explicitly, which therefore made it null.But…If he did interpret it the way I ‘somewhat’ intended, then it meant Pierce had rejected me. No, he didn’t reject me, he acted the most sensible of both of us, which I noticed he had been doing a lot. “I’m going downstairs.” I declared loudly. I wasn’t the first woman who had gotten caught with a toy before. Although said toy was now back in its miserable drawer. The name thing, I could explain that I was flitting through my list of guy names I knew and his, popped up on the list. I was absolutely not thinking of him while pleasuring myself.I had to have brea

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 Caught in the act
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
He 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

“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
He wants her back: The billionaire’s leading lady Bracelets(different kind)
“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

“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’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
