Love in the Headlines World's biggest Scandal
REIGN'S POV “ Get your fat ass up and go do something. ” A voice bellowed. Usually ‘fat ass' could mean two things. One, the person was impressed with the voluptuousness of your backside or the person was simply calling you fat. Staring into the disdain filled eyes of Mr Cobbs, I was sure his statement had nothing to do with my behind. I pushed my chair backwards and stood up, wringing my hands in nervousness. I wondered if I would ever be able to stand up for myself in front of this man. “ I was not sitting idly, Mr Cobb. ” “ Oh, I am sure, ” he muttered sarcastically. “ You just sit there and write reports that no one would ever care to read instead of going out to get me some juicy news. ” I stayed quiet, like I always do. I had no idea what he wanted me to say. Mr Cobbs sighed and rubbed his forehead, while murmuring words that I was sure were not pleasant. “ The CEO of Allure Ventures is holding a press conference today to explain his sex scandal, you know what to do. ” He

REIGN’S POV My hands moved before my brain did as I quickly pulled my camera from my bag and took quick pictures. It was a bit blurry from where I stood but it was obvious what the people in the frame were doing. I stood up from my butt and escaped, my heart in my throat the whole time. I placed my hand on my racing heart when I finally reached the lobby, glad I was able to leave unscathed. I glanced at the time, surprised to see it was closing time already. I was relieved that I did not have to go back to the hospital. It felt like my camera was burning a hole through my back. Even on my way home, I bit my lips in thoughts on what to do with the pictures. Hours later, I was sitting cross-legged in front of the coffee table with my laptop in front of me, staring at the edited picture of Ivan and his mistress. It will be 12 soon and all the story submissions for the production early tomorrow will close. Could I really do this? I thought, wringing my hands together, a habit that I

IVAN’S POV I clenched my fists in anger as I watched the constant ringing of my phone. The shrill, annoying sound definitely succeeded in ruining my mood further. Tired of the sound, I switched off the phone and threw it on the table harshly. Christian came in at that moment. “ We have taken the news down but it has already spread wild. Everyone now thinks you are a cheating bastard. It took a while because of the traffic on the post. All broadcast stations have also been notified not to post anything, well except the one that already posted. “ Christian snickered. A hard glare was what he got in response but it didn't scare him a bit. Anyone else would have pissed in their pants, but not Christian. After all, he was my best friend. “ Who was the journalist that released it? ” I asked, trying to stay rational and ease the bloodlust brewing in me. The realization that all my carefully thought-out plan was ruined overnight did nothing to alleviate the wrath I felt about the situatio

REIGN'S POV I groaned as I grabbed the side of my head. It felt like the whole world placed a heavy load on my head. I turned groggily before sitting up, my hazel eyes blinking rapidly to get rid of the fog. My eyes met a chandelier that obviously cost more than anything I'd ever make and I was on a sofa. ImThen, all the memories hit me. I was kidnapped in the parking lot. I gasped and searched my body before sighing in relief when I sensed no sign of assault. Where am I? I thought, feeling fear envelop me. It looked like I was in a fancy hotel room. Whoever kidnapped me should know no one would look for me. “ I thought you were going to sleep forever. " The deepest voice I had ever heard reverberated from across the room or closer, I was too dizzy to pinpoint where exactly. My head snapped up before clashing with grey eyes that looked bored but sinister. I moved back in fear, my back hitting the back of the couch. There was nowhere for me to run. Recognition finally dawned on

REIGN’S POV Fate must be playing a huge joke on me. This must be some sort of attempt at easing the boredom that marked every facet of my monotonous life. If that was it, then this is the right moment for whoever is in charge to cut the damn camera and tell me it was a prank. Fiancee back in 30 days? How the fuck was I supposed to do that? “ What do you mean? ” I choked out. “ I believe my words were clear enough. Why? You don't want to do it? ” he asked, a smirk taking over his features. The more he made me disgruntled, the more satisfied he looked. I was starting to think he was a sadist. “ How am I supposed to do that? ” I resisted the urge to scream. “ If you can't convince her to take you back, then what could I possibly do? This is like an impossible task. ” “ Everything you are worried about right now— ” he paused before continuing, “--is really none of my business. I gave you options. You are free to choose whichever one you think is convenient. ” I wanted to cry so bad

REIGN’S POVI mumbled incoherent words as I snuggled more into the soft pillow I was clutching in my arms. It was the softest I had ever had, a huge contrast to the hard lump of complexity that my life had become. The realization had me pushing the pillow away and sitting up, looking around the beige themed room. I felt the same awe I had felt when I had stepped into it for the first time, when someone, a maid i presume, kindly helped me to my room. Something Ivan was not gentlemanly enough to do.I pushed the duvet away from my laps and stood up before stretching and humming in satisfaction at the ‘pop’ sound I received. I resisted the urge to grimace at the sight of my bed nest hair and the obvious drool on my cheek as I passed the mirror on my way to the bathroom. I did my business in a hurry, eager to get a headstart on the day. I had a job that determines my life or death. Twenty minutes later, I was out of my bedroom, dressed in jeans and a simple T-shirt, and jogged down the s

REIGN'S POVMelanie’s first stop for the day was at a spa, which looked more like a mall to be honest. I parked a few feet away from them and gaped at the building. How was I supposed to enter this place? I watched with a heavy heart as Mel got down from her car, nodded at the valet and disappeared into the building. I immediately got into action, I can't afford to lose her. I got down and walked towards the building but was stopped by a man dressed in a black suit.“ Ma'am, your key. ” He demanded, without any emotion.My key? Oh, the valet.I handed him the key and watched as his eyes widened when he saw the car the key belonged to. I smiled sheepishly when he turned back to look at me. Of course, my beat down car would look like a sore thumb anywhere.Realizing that I had wasted too much time, I jogged into the building, stopping only for a few minutes to admire my surroundings. Wealthy people live in another world entirely. I spotted Mel again talking to someone in the lobby and

REIGN'S POV What should I do? Should I laugh and just run away? No, she would just run after me and catch me easily? Should I say I was a fan? That was more feasible. Or should I just say the truth? That Ivan had me do this? Ivan never told me if I was allowed to do that though.I groaned. What a rollercoaster my life has become!“ I…I was just…you know….” I stammered, looking around the mall like a way out was going to suddenly appear.“ I don't know anything. All I know is a creepy woman has been following me in a beat up car all day. ” Mel said, venom coating her face and her voice. My poor car. I am sorry you are taking the brunt of my actions.“ The thing is…” I started, ready to throw Ivan under the bus to redeem the image of my car.“ Oh, it's you. ” Melanie suddenly exclaimed, startling me. What was going on? Have we met before? “ Do you know me? ” I asked, reluctantly.“ Of course. Aren't you the reporter who posted the first article about Ivan's affair? ” She asked, the i

REIGN'S POV I peeked inside the kitchen and sighed in relief when I saw Ivan sitting at the counter and working. I took a deep breath and said a short prayer. “I can do this. I can do this.” I chanted like a mantra. I adjusted my dress and finally walked into the kitchen, trying to look nonchalant like I didn't come here for him. I leaned against the counter and tapped my fingers against it while looking at Ivan through side eyes to see if he noticed me. I deflated when he didn't even look up. What do I do to grab his attention?I took the seat directly opposite him and placed my forearms on the table. I plastered a smile on my face and focused all my attention on him. The last time I was in this position was when I was interviewing for a job at Everlight publications. The situations were not much different from each other. I was willing to do anything to please my interviewer, just to get what I wanted and right now I was about to do the same with Ivan.“Care to explain why you're
Love in the Headlines Where have you been all my life?
REIGN’S POV I hummed happily as I waited in front of Mel's door. The week had gone by rather slowly and I was glad I was finally done with it. It was crazy I had to face that every month. I had missed Mel immensely and we had chatted often but it was nothing like seeing each other in person.I knocked again when I didn't hear a response. I started getting jittery. What if Mel was not home? I didn't tell her I was coming so it would be a surprise but it looked like I came in vain instead. I sighed and turned around to leave when I heard the door crack open. I turned back with a smile on my face but it slipped when I noticed the state of Mel who was standing by the door. Her eyes were red rimmed and her mascara was smudged down her cheeks. “Mel, what's going on?” I asked, quietly and moved closer to her. As if she had been waiting for someone to ask, Mel sagged in my arms and burst into tears. I sighed and held her in my arms, patting her back gently. I led her into the house without
Love in the Headlines More like stalking
MELANIE’S POV I tapped my fingers on the steering wheel anxiously as I waited for the black sedan that Christian drove to come within sight. It was crazy what he had reduced me to.A scorned woman stalking the man that does not want her.I wanted to give up, I wanted to let him go but I was unable to. I spent every waking moment thinking about him, wishing things were different than what it was. If this was what love was all about, then I was not sure I liked it very much. I hated that my mood now depended on someone else.If I had these feelings for Ivan, my life would be easier.I gasped when his car finally appeared and ducked. I only realized my silliness when I remembered my car had tinted glasses. “ Right, he can't see me. "I murmured. I pulled my sunglasses from the compartment and put them on. I waited for Christian to enter his apartment complex before alighting and jogging after him.“ Miss. ” A woman I had not noticed called out when I dashed after Christian who was about
Love in the Headlines Attraction vs. liking someone
IVAN’S POVI tapped my pen on the table lightly while Henry's assistant explained the structure of the building we were collaborating on. It was supposed to be a refuge for abused women and children. Totally nonprofit at all. I was surprised Henry was willing to do this with me. He didn't seem like the type to do things like this but I knew better than to judge people by their appearance.“ I would like it if we tone down the exuberance a bit. ” I inputted, leaning forward. “ It's supposed to be a place where they can recuperate and face life head on once again. I don't see anyone being comfortable enough to do that here, honestly. ”Henry tapped his jaw in thought. “ I think I see what you mean. I'd have team work on something new. ”“ Please contact my design team as well for any assistance that you need. ” I offered.“ Of course. ” Henry grinned. The meeting was over and he was back to his happy go lucky self. It almost hurts to see all that smiling. What was he so happy about? I
Love in the Headlines Playful banter
REIGN'S POV I had woken up in a parallel universe. This universe was vastly different from the world I was used to. In this universe, Ivan was good to me. Ivan worried about me. In this universe, Ivan went out of his way to make me feel better on my period.I blinked repeatedly, expecting him to disappear but even after a few times, Ivan’s tall figure was still within my eyesight.“ Uhm…can I come in? ” He asked awkwardly, like he didn't think this through before doing it.I nodded absentmindedly and opened the door wider for him to come in. I shut the door after him and followed him back to the bed. “ Is there a problem? ”“ Ah, well, I brought these for you. ” He said, placing the things in his hands on the bedside drawer and taking a seat on the single sofa in the room. “ I heard a heating pad helps with cramps, as well as chocolates. I brought food as well. You haven't eaten all day. ”I suddenly thought of those dramatic moments in cartoons when something happens and a character
Love in the Headlines Hangovers and cramps
REIGN'S POV I groaned, clutching my head as I turned around and slept on my back instead. Everything hurts. Why did I drink so much yesterday? I sat up and looked around groggily. What was going on? My thoughts were all over the place and I felt weird.I felt funny.I pushed the duvet off me and suddenly it all made sense. I grabbed my pillow and screamed into it.Of course, is it really your time of the month if it didn't come at the wrong time? Is there even ever a right time?I wanted to just lie down and nurse my aching head while rotting away but it felt uncomfortable lying and doing nothing, knowing what was going on down there. I stood up and grimaced at the red patch on the sheets. I pulled it from the bed and folded it in a lump, with the aim of washing after I had taken my bath. I wanted to do it immediately but my first day was usually a river. I'd hate to stain anything else.Freshening up was a hassle and my cramps started to hit as soon as I stepped out of the bathroom
Love in the Headlines Does it have to be Mel?
REIGN'S POVI kicked the pebbles on the pathway absentmindedly as I walked home. After alighting from the bus, I did not feel the need to go home just yet so I opted for a walk instead. I had left Mel's home shortly after the incident with Matilda. Mel was distressed and I had no idea how to comfort her, I have never had siblings after all so I had no choice but to give her the space she needed.Matilda was horrible, that much was sure but a part of me felt like her animosity towards Mel goes beyond just Ivan choosing Mel over her. I sensed deep seated hatred in her, one that had been boiling for years.I looked around as I walked, enjoying watching other people. It was a favorite pastime for me to try and guess who they were and what their life entailed. But as I did so today, I felt melancholic.They probably all have something worthwhile going on for them, don't they?I loved spending time with Mel, I really did but watching her eyes spark when talking about something she loved ma
Love in the Headlines Her sister's fiancée
REIGN'S POV I was out of the house as soon as the doctor checked on me. Just as I thought, it was not serious and there was no need for a doctor. The doctor who introduced himself as Charles, just checked my temperature then prescribed some drugs. Mel had invited me to her home and no sickness in the world would have made me miss it. All of our meetings had always been outside so I was really excited. It was everything I never got to experience as a kid, I was experiencing them now. Having a friend, visiting each other's house, sleepovers and so on were like a myth to me.Mel's family house was a freaking mansion. I did not have any words to describe it. My mouth dropped open as I stood in front of the huge door that would lead me inside.Was I even worthy of stepping into this epitome of opulence? What if I accidentally touched something I was not supposed to touch?“ Reign! You're here. ” Mel exclaimed as she stepped out of the door.“ Yes. ” I replied awkwardly, clutching the cro
Love in the Headlines Phobia
IVAN’S POV I sighed as I stared at the array of files on my desk. That's what I get for working from home frequently. I slipped my glasses on and immediately got sucked in my workspace. My mind was usually clear when I was working but this time, a certain redhead invaded my thoughts. I leaned back and sighed, remembering her extreme reaction to getting carried yesterday.I could not make sense of what happened exactly.Did I carry her roughly? No, I was sure I was gentle. Then what was the problem? I was extremely tempted to put her down when she started crying but she was too ill to walk by herself. When she suddenly swayed and I caught her, I panicked. It almost felt like she was dying. She looked pale and tired. I wondered why I did not notice her sickly appearance.Christian pushed the door open and stepped in, jolting me back to the present. I pulled off my glasses and leaned back in my seat.“ Here is the document for the land project with Davidson Corporation. ” Christian sa
