E L L EI applied the final touch of make up to my face as admired my reflection through the mirror.I felt amazing and happy, like i didn't have any problems to deal with. It's been about five years since I genuinely felt happy, felt like there was light at the end of the tunnel. Spending just a little time with Mikhail was a feeling I haven't felt in a long while. I felt young, I felt beautiful, I felt worthy of being loved.Mikhail was the light at the end of my tunnel.He was bringing a new meaning into my life. And fast. It was scary. We've only been spending time together for the past two weeks, but, he's managed to make me smile, laugh and just simply enjoy my life.He's made me realize that I didn't have to put a halt on my life because of my failed marriage.But, that fear still lingered I'm my mind. I haven't accepted his proposal yet, but I knew I'd have to make a decision soon. But, that was where my fear lies.I was afraid that things would turn sour and he'd be another

E L L EI haven't even gotten over the shock that Mikhail had done that for me. Why? He barely knew me. Didn't know if I was worthy of this, but he did it without a second thought.Was this a dream? Because I didn't want to wake up.But, then again, a part of me wished he had listened.I was a strong believer that God has a plan for everyone. He doesn't do anything randomly. And, there's a reason Mikhail came into my life. There's a reason why I was saved by him.And, he has a reason to like me.Mikhail.The same man that has been painted bad by the public for being rude, arrogant, cold, uninterested and emotionless was doing this. I've come to realize that they were spreading false news about him, because he wasn't giving them that attention like other celebrities do. Women flocked around his every time, but he doesn't even bat an eyelash at them or give them the time of the day. He wasn't just saving me.He was making me believe in miracles.He was showing me a life where the past

E L L EI stood in the middle of my walk-in-closet, wearing a silk, short, red robe, trying to figure out what to wear."What do you think?" I asked, holding up a blue dress, and then another, showing Mina.She was here with me, helping me decide on a dress for the party. She had a few dresses herself and would try them on after helping me."Hmmm. Both are great. But, you have to keep in mind that your man is the Russian Billionaire, right? You can't be wearing something too simple, especially when he's going to be by your side the entire night. So, go for the red." She said and I sighed, knowing that she was right.I had a lot of beautiful dresses, but most were simple and casual.But, Mina and I were determined to change that.We wanted to make sure I dressed up and made myself look the part."Fine." I said, and placed the blue dress back into the closet."Try on the red one." She said and handed it to me.I walked into the bathroom and changed.The dress was a V neck, tight-fitting

E L L EIt's been two weeks since the party and officially one month since Mikhail and I started talking.But, it felt like I've known him all my life. He was slowly becoming a part of me, and it was hard to explain.We were getting close, and although we had a few disagreements, we managed to make it through and have a good time.In the past days, Mikhail was busy, so I didn't get to see him, which was okay, because it gave us the opportunity to miss each other, and look forward to seeing each other again. And he always called. No matter how busy he was.Someone was finally prioritizing me and it felt so new. So good. I wanted more of it.I was getting ready for another date with Mikhail, and Giovanna and Avery were present.They were out of the town for two weeks and only got back two weeks ago. They learnt about Mikhail and me, but didn't ask many questions, and I didn't tell them much, because I didn't want to jinx anything."This is nice." Giovanna was looking at the dress I was

E L L EI nodded, "That's part of my divorce story that the media never knew about. They were fine with just hearing one side of the story, you know? I lost a pregnancy while trying to save my marriage, and I fell into depression for a year after the divorce. That was hands down the worst moments of my life. And it was difficult because I was alone. The only person who knew about it were my parents. And I didn't talk to anyone else.""You didn't deserve any of that. I couldn't imagine how anybody could treat you like that. You're perfect. Anyone should be lucky to have you. Not the other way around. Any man who doesn't see how perfect you are is a fool. If he couldn't handle you, then he shouldn't have handled your perfection."Tears brimmed my eyes, and Mikhail pulled me into his arms."You're special, Elle. Never let anyone make you feel like you're less. Don't ever settle for less. You're a queen, and a queen deserves a king, not a prince. You deserve a man who would fight for you.

G I O V A N N AI drove faster as the rain began to fall. My foot hovered above the accelerator, waiting for a straight piece of road. The mountain roads were winding, narrow, and slick, and the weather was only making things worse. I just wanted to get home to the warm embrace of my girlfriend. Work has been shitty the past few days and I was hoping that she'd be able to help me through it.Thunder roared, echoing off the surrounding mountains. Raindrops began pelting the windshield. I flicked on the headlights and the wipers.I'd always loved the rain, but the storm seemed a little much.A bright light flashed, followed by a loud CRACK. I jumped and jerked the steering wheel, sending the car skidding across the wet pavement. My tires squealed in protest and I could smell burning rubber. The back end of the car fishtailed from side to side, and I felt the rear left tire go off the edge of the road.The car tipped precariously, the back wheels losing traction on the loose dirt. The w

G I O V A N N AI was placed on the couch. "Can you get a first aid kit? She's bleeding and shouldn't lose any more." Claire told Avery, tearing my shirt as gently as possible.Avery hesitated and I knew she didn't want Claire touching me."I got this. Go."Avery's footsteps got fainter and fainter, indicating she went to get the kit."You can leave. I'll take care of this."Claire shook her head and continued tending my wounds. "No, she wouldn't be able to handle you being alone with me. I'm a professional, remember? She sure wouldn't have a problem with you being treated by one, will she? If we have a misunderstanding, that's a whole different story."Claire was right. But, I didn't think my girlfriend would appreciate leaving the two of us alone. She's already wary of Claire."I know, but I don't want to cause trouble. We broke up years ago, Claire.""Yeah, and we've moved on. No harm, no foul.""Have you?" I shot back.Claire's hands froze and she looked up at me, before she could

G I O V A N N AIt has been a week since the accident and things were still awkward between Avery and me. She was cold and distant. We were hardly talking.She'd come home late and leave early. I didn't even know what was going on with her.I'd tried to talk to her about it, but she'd brushed me off, saying that she was tired and not in the mood to discuss anything."I'm going to be home late tonight, I have a lot of brand shoots to catch up on. I'll grab a bite out with the guys." She informed me, not even bothering to look at me."And you're only informing me of this now?""Look, Giovanna. It's a busy month and the studio is crazy. I'm sorry, okay? Just deal with it.""Giovanna? So, we're now on first name basis, huh?" I was hurt. She hadn't called me Gio in a while."Yeah, I definitely do not have time for this. I'll see you later." She shook her head, and grabbed her bag. She walked out of the room without even saying goodbye.I was upset and frustrated. I didn't know what to do

E L L EThe cops came in right on cue, and they handcuffed Sebastian."You're under arrest for trespassing and disturbing the peace. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law." They said and moved him to their van.Sebastian turned to look at me, "I'm not giving up, Elle. I would never hurt you. This isn't over." He said as they took him into the van. "Are you okay, ma'am?" One of the cops asked. "I'll handle it from here." Ivan said."Sir, are you sure?""Yes, he's my friend." I answered for him with a little smile, my body still shaken.The cops left and I turned to Ivan."He called you, didn't he?"Ivan nodded, "And he's probably on a plane right now, cancelling his meetings and getting the first flight back home."I sighed. "He doesn't have to do that. I'm fine now.""Do you know how scared he was that you were all alone?

E L L EMy life was a mess, and so was the room.I was actually exaggerating, but whenever mother nature arrives, my emotions are literally everywhere.My period started today, and I was already an emotional mess. My cramps were always so horrible and I don't even look forward to it. I was sitting on the bed with the lights turned off and my phone in my hands.My hair was in a messy bun, and my face was bare and makeup free.I was wearing an oversized shirt and a pair of sweatpants, unable to sleep.Mikhail was out of the country for business and he'll be back in two days. He left this afternoon and I was already missing him.It was currently 2am and I had to take another round of painkillers before I could finally go to sleep.As if he knew I was thinking about him, my phone rang, and Mikhail's name popped up on the screen."Hey, sweetheart." He said."Hi, how's the meeting going?" It was probably daytime over there. "We finished a few hours ago. How are you doing, my love?"Right

I could earlier hear Emory's voice outside the gate while she shouted to be let in.I had specifically ordered the security guard to never let her into my house ever again, or he was at the risk of losing his job.Her audacity to actually think I would allow her to step foot in this house was unbelievable.The media was going crazy over the scandal and everyone was talking about the affair and the child.Everyone was trying to get the latest gossip and trying to figure out what was true and what was false.

E M O R YIt was finally the day I was getting discharged from this god-damned hospital.After one long painful week, filled with lots of chaos, I was finally leaving this shitty hell hole with a child and my baby's father.Michael has been the one caring for the baby since her birth and I haven't even seen what she looks like. Honestly, I didn't care to.My life was literally falling apart after that confrontation with Sebastian. My secrets were out and the last thing I wanted was a baby that was supposed to be my saving grace but is actually my worst nightmare.I was supposed to have the baby to get Sebastian's lineage in my name.

E L L EI haven't seen Giovanna and Avery in a few days and we weren't barely able to catch up, so we decided to have a sleepover/girls night to catch up on everything basically.I was sitting in the car with Mikhail in front of Gio's house. He offered to drop me off. I told him he didn't have to, but he insisted. And now, he wouldn't even let me leave the car.I giggled as he pulled me closer, and his lips grazed the nape of my neck. He knew how much that drove me crazy, and I couldn't resist giving in to him."Mikhail, you're not playing fair." I sighed, trying not to moan."And neither are you." He smirked and pulled my hair back, making it easier for him to access my neck and suck on it.I was only in my pyjamas which was a pink hello kitty two piece. Mikhail's hands roamed over my body, and I closed my eyes as his fingers rubbed against my inner thighs. I felt him bite down on my shoulder and I couldn't help the whimper that escaped my lips."I love hearing you moan for me." Mikha

S E B A S T I A NThe following morning, I heard the sound of the cell door unlocking, and I saw the guard's face peeking in."Come on, get up. Your lawyer is here and you've been granted bail.""Took you long enough." I said, giving the asshole guard a glare as he led me out of the room."You're lucky your lawyer managed to pull a few strings, otherwise, you'd still be rotting in that cell." He sneered."Go to hell."I was taken down the hallways and was brought into the visitors room, where I saw my lawyer waiting and my parents waiting.My mom's eyes were bloodshot as my father tried to console her. She rushed to me, tears falling down her cheeks and she threw her arms around me."Oh, Sebastian. My baby. I was so worried. What did they do to you?" She rubbed my cheek, her eyes looking me up and down."Mom, I'm fine.""Mr. Black. How are you feeling? Are you alright?" My lawyer, Mr. Jonathan asked, his eyes scanning the papers."I'm fine, thank you." I shook his hand with a nod."I'l

S E B A S T I A NThe iron prison door was locked harshly in my face as the guard looked at me. "Have a good night, Mr. Black." He sneered.I glared at him and then at the other guard who stood at the entrance."Go fuck yourself." I gritted out. "Maybe a night in a cell will be enough of a lesson to never raise your hands on a woman, and make her unconscious. Even your billionaire status won't save you from this." He smirked, his dark eyes mocking me.I glared at him and the guard next to him. "If you think I'll stay here for a day, then you're dead wrong.""We'll see."They both walked out of the holding cell, and I was left alone.I leaned my head against the wall and closed my eyes.Elle.Everything hurt so badly.How could Emory be so heartless and cruel?She destroyed my marriage and made a fool out of me. She was a monster, and I couldn't believe I let her into my life.I couldn't believe that I believed her.I knew something was wrong, and yet, I never stopped to listen.I didn

S E B A S T I A NThe rage that was boiling inside me was a mix of betrayal, anger and sadness.I didn't know how I was still standing, still breathing, when everything around me was crumbling down and falling apart.Her words were echoing in my mind, and I felt numb."As if cutting open my body wasn't enough, the baby isn't even a normal one, one that could have just grown up and made me rich. Now, I lost the source to my wealth too! What the fuck have you done, Michael?"Her words kept playing on a loop and the more they repeated themselves, the more it hurt.I've never felt so hurt, betrayed and used before in my entire life.The more I tried to make sense of it, the less it made sense.How could she be like this?How could she do this?Just how terrible could she be?"How did you sleep at nights soundly, knowing that you're not only a golddigger, a liar and a serial cheater. You made me nurture and love a child that wasn't even mine." I asked her."Baby, please, listen. Let's not d

Shh, relax, I'm right here. Take a deep breath, baby. Relax. It's going to be okay."I expected to see the familiar face of my husband, but I was stunned when Michael rushed to my side instead, holding my hand and whispering to me."Michael?" I croaked, my throat was dry and my mouth felt like cotton."Drink." He brought a glass of water to my lips and tilted it, allowing the cold liquid to slide down my throat an
