“ Stay away from my son Beauty. This would be the last I'll warn you. The next one would come with an impact. I don't like repeating myself twice. " Rose said over the phone. She had called Beauty late at night while Mason was fast asleep. " I love your son, ma'am. “ Beauty said and she chuckled. " Love? You only want his damn money. “ " Thought you said you knew who I truly was. “" Yes, a poor trash. “" Then you should also know I'm capable of making my own money. "“ I don't want you near my son. You're nothing." Beauty inhaled, she couldn't believe she was defending this man beside her. She had fallen so deep into his charm and there's no way of lifting her out. “ I love Mason. Do whatever you like. " She said and ended the call. Mason snuggled closer to her and wrapped his arms tightly around her. She stared at his perfect face and she smiled. They just had a hell of a night and she couldn't wait for it to repeat itself. “ I'm never going to leave you. You've got me lock
“ Father!" Mason yelled walking into the mansion. A dangerous aura enveloped round him as he made his way to his father's study. “ What did you do?!" Mason yelled immediately he entered the room. " I don't understand. Why are you barking like a dog? “ “ How could you? You promised five months!" “ I don't understand what you're talking about."“ Stop pretending. You're the one who ordered her kidnap right? You're the only one who's capable of doing so. “" Oh, your fake girlfriend was kidnapped? “ Mr Alaric said and Mason stared at him confused. " Oh, I know everything about that contract you made with her. I'm glad it's fake, now you're going to be serious about getting married to Celeste. “" Over my dead body will that happen! “ " As you wish. Why can't you see that I'm doing all this for your good? Celeste would bring a lot of benefits to this family. “ " I will never marry her! You'd better bring Beauty back or you consider me not your son anymore and I mean it. “" All this
The murmurs, the piercing white light, the standing water that dropped slowly. The sounds of heels kissing the floor and the smell of drugs. She could feel and hear all that as her eyes stirred open slowly. She looked around and saw three blurry figures with their backs turned on her. “ She's awake! " A familiar voice said and they all turned to face her. “ Thank God! Beauty! Are you okay?" A make voice said as he held her hand somewhat too tight. She closed her eyes again for two seconds then opened them again. “ Ryan? “ She called slowly as her vision became clearer. " Yes. “" Beauty, do you feel any pains? Are you okay? Does your head still hurt? “ Mia bombarded her with questions. Ryan helped her sit up and she looked around in search of someone. “ He went out to get some food. " Mia said when she saw her glancing around. She wanted to end thing with him as quickly as possible but her heart grieved whenever she thought about it. She didn't want to leave him. She wasn't rea
“ She's Fred's daughter?!" Rose yelled alarmed after Robert told her everything. “ The fuck she is! Our son did well in hiding it from us. " “ I thought she died with her parents in the crash. " Rose said and he smirked. " I guess they outsmarted us. I'll call a dinner with Steve. You find out what our son is planning next. It's either he marries Celeste or that girl dies. “ He stormed out of the living room. “ What's with all the rucus aunty?" Angela asked coming out of her room. She stayed behind after the party since new Jersey was closer to her school in New York. “ Mind your fucking business. " Rose glared at her. ..A red car drove roughly into the parking yard of an underground gambling den. A black boot came down followed by another. A lady stepped out of the vehicle fully with dark shades on. One couldn't see her face clearly coz she also had a face cap on. She was dressed all black, from head to toe and each step she took screamed danger. Another car drove in, this t
“ I have a plan, baby. " Beauty pouted. They just got back from Mason's family mansion. Mr Alaric opposed of Beauty as usual and sent her out of the mansion. “ What is it? Do you want us to run away and have some alone time?" He asked with a naughty smile. “ No. I want us to break up." She said and his smile fell slowly. “ What?! You're kidding right?" “ Not for real. Just for the public to see. Let's break up."“ I don't want to."“ It's...."“ I don't care if it's just for the public. I can't do it. "“ Mason, stop being too emotional. All you have to do is post on your IG account that we're no longer together and I'll do same. We don't have to make a video, just a post. Which can be deleted when all this is over. “ " Then what? “" We go for your second plan. We run away. “ " And make babies till midnight? “" We'll make all the babies that you want." She whispered in his ear and he grinned widely. He flipped her off the floor and carried her in a bridal style. “ How about w
Ryan sneaked into Mason's room while the others were downstairs. He stared at Mason who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed for a while before bursting out laughter. “ You little trickster! I almost fell for your trick." Ryan said admist laughter. " You were at our wedding Ryan. Why would we go through that stress if we were only going to break up after? “ Mason rolled his eyes." I know, that's why I didn't believe at first but her words hit really hard. She sounded too real. 'True love is never forced'.“ He said dramatically and Mason laughed at his funny expression.“ No one would believe otherwise." " So what's the plan? “" We go on a little vacation. “ " Can I tag along? “" No.“" Please, maybe I might see someone I like over there. “" Still no. We can't leave the company at the same time. You have to be here when Alessio returns. “" What? Alessio's coming? “" Yes. “" Why? I thought he said he would never return. “" Well Dad tried to buy more shares right under o
Early the next morning, Beauty met up with Elsa in Manhattan while Mason took a flight to Germany but diverted back to Manhattan to meet up with the girls. “ So we're supposed to be in Atlanta right now?" Elsa asked after Beauty had explained their situation. “ Yes but we're safe for now. Mason has led them off my back. They think I'm in Atlanta and he's in Spain. " " Is he Spain? “ " No. “" He really likes you that much? “" What? “" He's willing to go through all of this for you. What happened to, ' Love is not my thing' ? “ Elsa said and she chuckled. " It just happened. “ " I just pray he doesn't break your heart because I'll be the one to murder him. “ " As if you can hurt a fly. “ Beauty laughed. “ I'm being serious. I don't care if he's rich or not, I'll kill him. “ “ Forget about me. I specifically asked you to bring a partner otherwise you're gonna be lonely. " “ I get that you don't want me to feel like a third wheel but it didn't work out. "“ You didn't speak t
Celeste walked into the Alaric's mansion looking all radiant and grinning from ear to ear. “ What are you doing here?" Ryan asked in disgust immediately he saw her. " I came to visit. Have you heard from my Mason? “ She said and he scoffed. " Wipe that smile off your face, slut. Just because he broke up with her doesn't make him yours. “ " He's mine. Why else would he break up with her? “" You're such a slut. You still want my brother even after what you tried to do to me!"“ It wasn't my fault you weren't man enough to fuck a lady. "“ I'd rather fuck myself than put my dick in that smelly hole of yours. Bitch!““ You can't go in there. Miss! Miss!" They heard the guard arguing with a lady outside. “ Fuck you!" The lady said and forced herself into the house. Immediately they both saw her, their eyes widened beyond repair as they stared at the devil herself. “ Miss me?" She said with an evil smirk. ...“ Do you wanna go sightseeing?" Beauty asked Elsa who was busy brushing h
