Darcy

The same dream, the same stupid dream.

Wake up, wake up, it is not real.

“No, no. It’s real. You're not dreaming. You are here, you have entered my domain, do you see this ?” The creature stood next to the largest oak in the vicinity, I stared at him blankly. He tilted his head towards the tree.

“Do you see? This is the main source, it allows you to walk between dimensions” I shook my head. What is this creature talking about? Is he crazy?

“Look at me”

I looked around to figure out where this voice came from when my eyes fell on the small lake that stood behind him. I blinked twice, trying to make the image clear.

I couldn't tell what or who I was talking to . It was blurry, indistinct and I could only see the outlines of things. There were shadows and a few bright lights flickering, like fireflies in the distance. Everything else was lost in the darkness. Yet I knew who the creature was standing in front of me.

“You'll leave soon”

“Leave to where?” I frowned slightly.

  • Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess    The Visit

    Unknown “Why are you here? you can't be here, we had completed our business” Not once did she look up from the papers in front of her . The woman was clearly unimpressed with whatever I had just said to her. She had a blank expression on her face that seemed to indicate that I wasn’t really saying anything that mattered. It probably wasn’t because I didn't understand, it was more likely she was trying to avoid having to speak to me and wasting my time.“I need your help” I answered, still maintaining a polite smile on my face although inwardly I was seething. Why was I even here again? It was always the same thing “we have finished our business”“I can't help you. You are not supposed to be here, if I were you I will leave” By this time she had put away all of her paper, looked up at me through her long fringe and fixed me with an intimidating gaze. Her brown eyes held no emotion whatsoever while her lips stayed as straight as a board, giving nothing away. This lady was completely un

    Darcy“It was just a bad dream” I insisted, hoping that he'd let go of my hand , but he didn't.“What's wrong?” he asked.This wasn't the first time he'd caught me like this—in fact I didn't want him to catch me like this.“You can let go of my hand now, I am fine” I said firmly but his fingers were locked in place as though they had been set in concrete or something solid. I tried unsuccessfully to get free from his hold but I knew there was no point. “I know this is hard Darcy and I want…”“You don't”“What?”“You don't understand, it wasn't you who lost a child” I spat out and immediately those words left my mouth without even thinking about them. The moment I spoke them, though, they sounded so ridiculous. It was impossible for anyone to blame his loss on himself when everyone already blamed mine. His hand relaxed and I pulled myself away from him. I could see he hadn't expected me to say anything so direct and was taken aback by it.“I lost that child too Tessa, me! What is w

  • Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess    Old Friend

    Rhys“Are you going somewhere, Sir?” My driver asked me after I told him to get the car ready“I don't see why my movement is any of your business,” I said, taking a sip from the coffee cup inmy hand. Claire had made it for me before she left. She knew how I liked it, black and bitter. I couldn't stay in this house and repeat the whole back-and-forth with whatever was going on.“I am sorry Sir,” he said, sounding more than a little guilty. “Please allow me to drive you wherever you are going if you would like.”“You are the last person who should be asking,” I told him bluntly. Where did he get these nerves? Had they also noticed how soft I had grown?He shrugged and took a deep breath, “Fair enough” he said. “But may I ask just where you plan on going? Is it not far from here to your location?. The weather forecast predicts heavy rain for later this evening.” He looked down at his watch and then back up at me. His eyes were filled with concern. I didn't want tomake him sad. He was

  • Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess    A New Villain

    Unknown They had gone to the seer, I needed to hurry up before they found out what I was up to. It was a secret but I needed them to think it had been for good, I couldn’t let them know about what I wanted them to do. They didn't understand magic. “How long is it going to take?” I tried not to snap at her, she was the only reason I was even trying to make this happen. “You have to do something soon,” she was being so quiet and I was almost worried she wasn't breathing anymore. But I knew how stubborn she could be, she wouldn't give in easily. “I am trying hard” She sounded almost frustrated as well.“Try harder! I heard you are better than this,” we were getting on each other's nerves, and that would mean nothing if we weren't careful. But with me working like this there wouldn't be much time for that anyway.“This is too important. We can't come this far to just let something slip through our fingers,” I sounded desperate now. “And besides it doesn't even really help me, I alread

    Blair“Why are you still head over heels for him? you have me” Bruce frowned and I rolled my eyes.“Come on Bruce, we don’t have to discuss that now” I was standing extremely close to him.His eyes roamed my whole body and finally settled for my exposed cleavage , a small smile tugged at his lips as he let his eyes wander lower.He had this thing where he wanted to touch every inch of me. It was annoying but also kind of sexy, considering the circumstances. “You like what you see don’t you?” I leaned in more closely to whisper into his ears . He swallowed thickly before looking up at me again with eyes dark and hungry. The way they looked at me made me feel special and protected all at once.Bruce leaned forward to press his mouth against mine, a kiss that was slow and deep. We kissed for minutes, letting the world fade away, only us and each other. His lips tasted sweet and warm and addictive.My hands slid from his shoulders down to his arms and around to his back. I could feel a m

  • Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess    The Will

    DarcyWe were all currently sitting in Mr Stark living room. He had been discharged from the hospital even though I could tell that he was not fully healed.He looked thin in his clothes, as if he would fall apart any second. His eyes were slightly bloodshot and red. I didn’t fail to notice how his wife held him for support.I don’t know why I was here. It wasn't like I wanted to be here or anything but Rhys had said it was important.I no longer paid attention to my looks. I was casually wearing a pair of old jeans with a plain white shirt and grey sweater. No jewelry whatsoever. I didn't care about what people thought of me as long as they kept their hands off of me.The atmosphere in the room was thick with tension. There were four men in suit, men u didn't know but who seemed to know Rhys and Vincent. They even shook hands with Cory and I.Rhys and I took our seats near Mr Stark.Mr Stark was on edge, clearly not knowing what he should do next. His wife was holding him close, and

    Vincent “Fucking bastard! Fucking bastard!” I yelled pacing in my living room back and forth and knocking down things. “That fucker I going to kill him! He is dead! He fucking dead!” I screamed as I ran a hand through my hair, ripping out the knots with my fingers as I did so. I was a mess and a complete and utter failure when it came to handling stress. “You need to stop this madness Vincent!” Cory yelled from where she stood.I turned and glared at her. “Stop this madness? What madness Cory? Did you hear what that old fucker read? I didn't get to be CEO but Rhys! It was supposed to be me! My father trained me for this role right from when I was born and you think I'm mad for trying? You think this shit is funny?! You got no idea what that fucker did Cory! To me, to all of us!”“All I am saying is that we have to think critically about how we want to deal with this information and not just act upon whatever rage or anger it brings on. There are consequences Vincent and we cannot af

    Darcy“Tessa” I could hear the desperation in his voice, and then everything went black.My head hurts. Everything felt strange. It was warm. My ears were ringing. But mostly I remembered everything that had just happened. I opened my eyes slowly and was blinded by light. It took me a few moments to realize where I was. I slowly sat up, trying to look around me.“You are awake” Rhy’s voice came from somewhere close to me. His face was just inches away from mine. He looked relieved. “Thank god” he murmured, reaching out for me. “What happened?” I asked him. He seemed fine until now, but I wondered if he would be alright after what we had all just witnessed.He shook his head, “You passed out… as always” his voice sounded hoarse. He cleared his throat. “We got away in time, it didn’t end badly though. But you… are you sure you are okay?” His concern increased when he noticed how pale I looked. He put one hand on my shoulder. His touch grounded me somewhat. He knew how to do that sometim

    Rhys“Almighty Rhys Madigan, pleading for mercy? Who would have thought?” Cory said, mocking me and chuckling.“Come on Rhys, we both know who is the stronger of us” Vincent added.“You guys don't even deserve mercy. You're nothing but bad news” he sneered.“Listen...” I warned them “I am willing to surrender, you can't hurt me or she, you know that” I motioned to Tessa.Vincent started laughing. “Oh please,” he scoffed “like anyone would ever trust her over you”“Let Tessa go, you want me right? Let her live please” A smile crept up in Cory’s expression “You really wanna save this whore?” she asked rhetorically. “That's very charming considering that you didn't find it difficult to kill three people without remorse” “What do you mean?” She snorted “don't play dumb with me boy. You killed my parents and my little sister, remember you got into an accident and you fled, left the scene, left us to die! My parents died because of you, my little sister died because of you!” she screamed

    Rhys “What are you doing?” I asked Blair.“Calling for backup, do you think a single gun would save you from your brother? If you did, then you don't know the kind of brother you have. He's dangerous” “I don't need your help. I'm in control, and you're the problem.”Blair laughed.“You're a fool Rhys… they are watching you! better make use of this chance and let me do what I know how to do.I swallowed her insults like bitter lemon drops. “Where is she?”“At an abandoned warehouse out of town”, Blair said as if we'd been discussing the weather.Speaking of the weather, it had begun to rain. A light mist that made it impossible to see anything beyond thirty feet or so, but enough to make me feel uneasy.It also meant that I couldn't see anything outside of the car. And I had to pull over into the parking lot before stepping out. It was a miracle Blair followed and the rain took longer than I expected.I watched as Blair dozed off beside me and a silly idea came into my mind.I gently

  • Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess    Still Stuck

    DarcyI was tired of fighting, my body was extremely weak, my throat dry from dehydration and the constant ringing in my ears made me almost blind. I felt completely lost and I couldn’t understand why. What did these people want from me? Was this happening to me? Why were these people staring at me? Where did they come from? How had they taken me here? “I am thirsty” I cried out for the hundredth time. “Please” I begged again. “Just give me something to drink, anything at all. Please”. My voice cracked, and I was surprised I didn’t feel any pain anymore. The silence only amplified the sound in my head. It was deafening. So quiet, so peaceful now. The ringing was gone.“That's your punishment for pulling that stupid stunt” One of them hissed. They looked angry. Yes, I had tried to escape again but I didn't even make it past the day.I got punched hard across the face, my head snapped to the left and back to the right, the ringing grew louder but not quite as painful as before, and I

    Rhys When I drove down to Vincent’s house, I didn't know what to expect but I made sure I kept my gun closed.Someone whom I assumed was the nanny opened the door and she was holding a baby.For the first time in a long time, I paid attention to their son. He was a spitting image of Tessa... I mean Darcy. He had her eyes. Her beautiful, greyish blue, wide, soulful eyes. He looked just like her. And that terrified me for some reason.It also made sense why she had been fooling me the whole time. I would have probably done the same thing if I was her or done even worse.The nanny looked at me as if she was skeptical of my being there or something equally dumb and stupid because she didn't let me inside. “Tell Vincent I am here”, I demanded. “He's not here” she said. She wasn't rude by any means, she just seemed completely unimpressed with my presence at all.I wanted to tell her to fuck off, but my mouth wasn't cooperating. What a fucking mess.“Who is at the door?” I heard Vincent as

  • Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess    Three Steps

    Rhys“What do you want?” I typed and waited for a reply while I began to drive down to the police station.The car was silent on its way there, but the ride didn't last long since it soon became apparent that my phone was ringing. It was the sound of my cell phone ringing that alerted me to where I was. I stopped the car and reached for it.“We said don't go to the police and you are parked in front of one? You really must think we are unserious right?” The voice said from the other line.I looked in the streets but everyone was going about with their business, there was no sign that I was being followed.How did they know where I was?“What do you want?” I yelled through the line as loud as possible just to make sure my message wasn't lost in the noise from the cars passing by.“You already disobeyed us and now your darling wife would pay for it” He sneered “Do not test our patience” “No, no, no” I heard Tessa scream from the background. I could only imagine her franticness and dang

  • Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess    Truth

    Darcy“Why? You are supposed to be his friend. Why would you do this to Rhys?” I asked the man in front of me. My hands were shaking from trying to break free and my body was trembling with rage. He stood staring at me.“You see my dear, life is not always black and white. There are people who can love others, and those that do will be remembered for eternity. The difference between you and them is that you choose to stay with the light and I decided to go to darkness. That, or it takes too much effort” His face was twisted in amused expression, as though he was watching a child trying to figure out their math homework. But he was serious about what he said.“Rhys has always had things easy, he was always good at everything, he had the women, they loved him, and he loved them back.” He shook his head sadly ‘The thing is, there is no such thing as perfect men, only ideal ones. And unfortunately, there isn't any such thing as perfection in this world, and there's nothing you can do to c

    DarcySomeone pulled the fabric that blinded my eyes open, and I squinted as a bright light invaded my mind and consciousness. My body ached, it felt as though someone had taken a hammer to me. I could barely breathe. It seemed impossible that such an intense pain existed in this world, especially in my own body. My heart felt like it was going to burst with every beat.“Hello there Darcy” Cory’s voice sounded so cheerful yet it was laced with malice, it didn’t help at all to calm me down.Beside her was her husband, and him… the least person I expected and when Cory forcefully pulled the duct tape away from my mouth, I let it hang loose. Could he?“I can tell you are familiar with all of us, aren't you?” It was Vincent. A smug smile stretched his face as he said these words, as if he were about to play a cruel prank. “Well, you could imagine the surprise when my wife told me the person I thought was Tessa had been Darcy all along and it made sense. How every move I tried to make was

    Rhys“Hello” I yelled into the receiver, the alcohol in my system had immediately taken a halt as the sound of someone speaking filtered through to my ears. I thought I had heard wrong.“We have your wife” the voice on the other end said, it was almost robotic, as though this had been practiced in front of the mirror so many times that it felt natural. I heard Tessa… I mean Darcy scream again . She sounded so frightened and alone, like she was in pain and terrified of everything happening around her. “Is… Is she okay ?” My words stumbled across my tongue as I struggled to keep them together, “Tess…”“She is unharmed, for now” I heard, again from whoever was speaking to me.Suddenly anger course through my veins, like lightning through dry leaves, burning the insides of my skin with heat.“What do you want?” I asked, my voice low but sharp as a knife. My words were laced with hatred, and rage, like poison as they seeped out from the ends of my lips. It wasn’t often I spoke to people li

    Rhys It felt like Tessa took the life of the house along with her when I asked her to leave.The house felt empty, dead and void of warmth. I had gotten used to the way the walls vibrated with her laugh, the light touch of her hand on my arm, or her voice, but she’d never taken it away before, she was always there. And yet, now, she seemed so far away, a ghost who would never really be. It didn’t feel right that she wasn’t still here. My chest constricted in a way I’ve never experienced before and I wondered if maybe she could hear me, even though I knew there was no sound to reach her ears. She’d left me, after all. Just like everyone else has. Except she didn’t just leave, she left with everything that mattered to her me. Everything that mattered was lost forever. When you lose something that matters, it hurts like hell. You’re alone, but at least the other person knows. But this time, it hurt in a different way, because she took that with her, too. The only thing I have left is m
