Darcy

“What do you want?” if Cory was surprised at my response she didn’t show it, instead she focused on the child she was carrying.

I looked at her and back at the boy in her arms trying to keep my face straight.

Looking at him now I could see traces of my mother in him, he was mine, he was supposed to be in my arms not hers, and yet here we were, with him in her hands, and my heart was hammering hard as though someone had punched it right out of my chest, and I hated that.

“Not the warm welcome I was expecting but we stopped to say hi” Her eyes beamed with the kind of mischief that made you want to hit someone just for looking at them.

“Go ahead, touch him, I know you want to” She insisted as she pushed the child in front of me, his eyes went wide when he saw my expression and he squirmed a bit like a rabbit ready to bolt.

His movements reminded me so much of myself that it hurt. Regardless, I held onto the child and my heart felt warm from our mere contact, I tried to keep my face

    DarcyI stared at her eyes wide as saucers, I couldn't move even if I wanted to. I just stood there frozen. I was afraid that if I moved I'd shatter into a million pieces. I couldn't even take the smallest breath, I had nothing left except pure fear and the overwhelming desire to throw up.Her lips formed into a smile that made me want to vomit. “We'll talk later”With that she walked out leaving me alone, trembling.I was scared but also terrified. I wasn't able to process any of what she had said without feeling dizzy, I couldnt comprehend that this could be happening.My son cried loudly as she took him away, I wanted to run after them, run after her. I wanted to scream at her to give me back my son but I stayed frozen where I stood, I couldn't move, I couldn't breathe. I couldn't think. All I could see and hear was red and black and white. My eyes started watering. It could not have been what she meant. Maybe she was talking about something else? Maybe that's what happened and sh

    DarcyMy thoughts were muddled and my mind still felt like cotton candy on a hot day at the beach. It was a bad day to go out and drink. I was overthinking things.Maybe I could run away from it all if only for a little while. If I went somewhere where no one knew me and everyone thought of me as a nobody... But I knew what Cory and whoever the fuck was stalking me were capable of.And Rhys? After all, I recently knew, was he going to haunt me like a predator would after its prey had escaped if he knew that I knew? And I wasn't stupid, I understood all too well how much power those blue eyes had over me. My body might have been able to withstand the effects of his poison but not that way.After I left the room with what I had found, I ate breakfast and cleaned up. The empty feeling in my chest grew larger and stronger. It spread over my face and shoulders.My head started hurting. But I ignored it. It would go away. Eventually. I hoped it would. But that hope faded with every m

    Darcy I wanted to go over and talk to Cory but about what? A lot of things didn’t make sense and they were barely adding up. I couldn’t sleep, I couldn’t function properly. I had found a paper in that storeroom, similar to the one Cory had given me. Why did Rhys have it? The headline read “Drunk billionaire heir kills three in an accident”. I felt my insides squirm when I saw the Madigan name there.Whoever wrote it kept emphasizing on the Madigan name, I knew he wanted to have the people locked in.“You need to stop staring into space like that and tell me what is going on” Rhy’s voice cut through my reverie. He walked towards me, eyes narrowed. My face warmed as he reached the space where I was sitting. He grabbed my shoulders, turning me slightly so we were face to face. His eyes held mine with concern and a bit of amusement, as he tilted his head. “What are you thinking about?”I shook my head and looked down, away from his piercing gaze. What could I say? That someone had bee

    Darcy“Why? Did I hit a nerve? Or are you too ashamed to tell your darling wife what we did?” Blair taunted, her expression twisted with triumph. She knew. She fucking knew! I clenched my fist at my side. My breath hitched."Don't listen to her, Tessa," he whispered. His eyes pleaded with mine as if asking for permission to take me away.I looked at him incredulously. “I think my job here is done, call me Rhys” Blair winked at him before walking away, leaving both of us in silence.I turned to walk away but was halted by his hand on my forearm.I looked up at him and saw he wasn’t meeting my eyes. “Did you sleep with her?” I asked quietly. A part of me hoped he hadn't even though I knew the truth.But I could remember the night he came back a day after Cory’s visit. He reeked of alcohol and aside from that, something about him had seemed different than before. It was the same feeling that went through me the first time when I saw him kiss Blair.For the first time ever, Rhys Madiga

    Unknown POV“Why did you call me out here?” I asked her as she took majestic steps around the private restaurant she had chosen. It still remains a mystery how she got my number and even the balls to text me. But I ignored my thoughts and focused on the woman in front of me.My eyes were locked on her long legs that swayed like a feline's in the most seductive of ways. They looked good too. She was beautiful and she knew it but that wasn't any of my concern. I had somewhere important to be.“We are here to discuss business” She removed her shades and sat down in front of me with that confident posture that women seem to have when they sit in their designer gowns.“I think you should be discussing with Vincent not me” I leaned back against the comfortable leather seat in the restaurant she had invited while crossing one leg over another and trying to hide how impatient I felt. Her gaze didn’t waver for a second. It was unnerving. “He is not very…cooperative about all this stuff. I mea

    Rhys“You have a secret affair.” Liam’s voice held a hint of a tease to it as if he knew something I didn't. We used to be a group of three but Bruce and I had been closer. After my fallout with Bruce, I ghosted Liam, ignored him and cut him off completely. It wasn't until early this year when we were able to talk things out but he was leaving town. But when I dropped Tessa off, I got a text from him that he was back.And after being away for seven months, I tried to fill him up with what I could.“You are just crazy. How did I end up with such a friend?”“So you haven't been sleeping with her in secret even though you claim it's only business?” He was still grinning. “Or is this another of your little secrets like Blair? Or the one where you lock everyone out” I had told him about Tessa and what I wasn't sure I had done with Blair even though I couldn't remember anything from that night no matter how hard I tried.“I don't see how it's any of your business” My temper had gotten shor

    RhysI was going to go back to Playboy Rhys.When Liam and I decided to leave after seeing enough, he promised he was going to go back there. There was a glint of satisfaction on his face. We moved to an orgy he was invited to and there were a lot of drinks and ladies everywhere when we got there. I reminded myself that I was free to do whatever I want and whatever commitment I had with Tessa didn't matter. It was all work. I didn't need to give her the illusion that we had something going on, something more.She had made me grow weak and I didn't like that, I didn't need that.Music blared, people were dancing and drinking, laughing nonstop and most of them were tipsy already. We managed to squeeze through all the sweaty bodies that were dancing in circles on top of one another, stumbling and tripping, laughing and singing along to different songs. The ladies didn't stop eye fucking us with lustful gazes, as far as I was concerned that could only be interpreted as lustful…I liked

    Unknown POVI had managed to sneak into their home. As I watched her, something seemed different about her and it felt as though she was oddly shaken by something.Surprisingly, the guards were now back to following her around everywhere. She was on constant guard, but I thought nothing of that. Her face always remained the same – a mixture of sadness, fear, hatred, and anger all at once – and she never showed any emotion whatsoever. That suited my purpose just fine.I thought it was pathetic, it was going to need more than guards to stop me from getting what I wanted, but that didn't mean it wouldn't work. There were other things, things that I could do with my new knowledge about her, things that would make this plan of mine work out perfectly well. It wouldn't be easy, I'm sure, but everything would eventually fall into place in my favour.Even if it meant taking everything else away from her. The guards weren't going to protect her forever. She wasn't even safe.Was it because her

    Darcy“I love you, Tessa” His words made my heart race and the world stopped spinning around me. His voice was so calm but laced with determination.My knees gave up underneath me, I felt dizzy and weak. My heart was pounding and everything seemed to come to a standstill for the moment.How did he say those three words to me? I mean I loved him. Of course, I loved him, I loved him since forever.I had always dreamed of when I would hear him say those words to me, but this wasn't how I imagined that moment to happen. The first time I heard them, it was obvious it was because he wanted me to keep this child. And now? It was to make up for calling me stupid. Not once did he mean those words.YetI felt like I couldn't breathe, my chest heaved up and down as if I were running. Every fiber of my body was shaking, my legs couldn't seem to support me anymore.Why was he saying this? Was he really thinking that I would buy whatever he just said? Was it a trick to manipulate me?Or did he truly

    Darcy“Try? Do you realize how stupid you sound? Do you? Why can’t you see the red flags? you are so gullible that you believe whatever anyone says to you. I've been betrayed before, I will always be betrayed, no matter what. And you seem to think that I am just like any other person? you think that I'll change because you tried to make me happy? You need to grow up Tessa! fucking grow up and get your head out of all those fantasies” I couldn't get them out of my head ; They stayed inside my mind like poison. I kept repeating them over and over, like the mantra, like the mantra that kept repeating in my mind.I knew he was right, I knew how cruel his words sounded . My mind was running wild, like I was going insane with the way it kept repeating those same words. It took everything in my power not to burst out crying on the spot. I was still breathing heavily and I didn't even notice when I stopped walking. I simply kept walking, taking long deep breaths. My body was shivering with s

  • Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess    Hurting Her

    Rhys I thought my head was going to explode from the pressure I was feeling at that moment. My heart was beating so fast I swore it would give out any second. I couldn't breathe. It seemed like I had forgotten how to and I was suffocating. I couldn't think straight, it just didn't seem real. All I could see were black dots. I was used to everything being black and white, it was easier to pick sides and focus on the side you have chosen but right now it was all blurry and gray, like looking through a thick layer of dust. Everything around me was dark except for those black spots, which weren't really spots, they seemed to be tiny holes in space. They made me feel sick and nauseous. Like I was drowning. Or maybe I was dying. But what kind of death?There was no lead or response from the contact I had reached out to. Mr Stark still wasn't allowed to talk to anyone, Vincent was still roaming freely after killing our grandfather.What was I supposed to do now, just collapse into a puddle

  • Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess    Thoughts

    DarcyIt had been three days, three days since I last saw Rhys. Three days of craving his presence, of missing him more than any other person I’d ever known, in ways I couldn’t quite explain to myself and would probably never be able to fully comprehend even if I wanted to. I didn’t know what I was supposed to do now that he wasn’t here- no he was here but far. I certainly hadn’t gone over the past three days planning an elaborate, intricate plan for what I could possibly say or do when I'll see him. It hadn’t crossed my mind once. I hadn’t done anything but stare at the door of my room as if it would magically make him appear.It was three days of wanting his touch, his kisses, and his arms around me every single second of the day. To feel the warmth radiating from his skin while we lay together on a bed, listening to the gentle patter of rain hitting against the window pane. To feel his lips pressed against mine, the taste of him lingering even after I pull away, the soft sigh of r

    Unknown “What? why did you call me out here?” I demanded once I opened her front door. I glared down at her with eyes so intense and as always I expected her to cower away but instead she stared me down right back.“Because I wanted to see how you were doing, that’s why. And to ask why you had not called me to apologize for what you did the last time”I scoffed at her and shook my head in disbelief. “You expect me to apologize? You want to talk about apology when you are the one who is in violation of the terms of our deal. I am doing nothing wrong. I did what was necessary to keep myself safe from your unnecessary gossip and I refuse to let you disrespect my husband. You are the one who owes me an apology Blair” She looked at me confused, trying to find any signs of remorse on my face. She finally settled into shock at the fact that I hadn't just spat at her. “Unbelievable!” She snorted at me, rolling her eyes in disbelief. “You are unbelievable!” I couldn’t tell if it was a threa

    Rhys“Didn’t I ask you to leave Claire?” I tried to control my voice but failed but the rawness didn't go unnoticed, the snarls from my voice were as loud as sirens.“It’s me,” I heard her voice and I turned to her. I wanted to ask if she was okay but she seemed a little nervous until I watched her whole body relax.With the way her large greyish-blue eyes were looking I could tell she was taking in my appearance and the look of shock on her face only confirmed that I looked like a mess, a total disaster.But it was nothing compared to the battle I had going on in me. The little voice in my head was begging to be released, to pounce on anything but I couldn’t let it, not when Tessa was here. I didn’t want anything to go wrong.I didn’t want to lose control and hurt her just like I had done with the guard, so I turned away from her scrutinising stare to focus on my walls which suddenly seemed almost peaceful, almost interesting.I could feel Tessa’s gaze, boring holes on my back and I

    Vincent His arms were tied, mouth sealed while tears and sweat streamed down his cheeks to free himself from a strong grip. He tried desperately to kick away the arm holding him still, but that only made things worse for the man holding the other end of his chains. The men surrounded him, rough hands holding him back at each side as he fought against them with no success whatsoever. There was nothing he could do.I walked back to where I was and pulled the tape off his mouth.“Please Sir, I am sorry” He wailed. “Please, sir. Don’t hurt me anymore. Please, I beg you.” He begged me in vain. I ignored his pleas. I didn’t have the time to be nice. My mind was on something far more important at the moment than some silly human life. It wasn't about him, it never had been.“I gave you a simple job, I paid you for it, and yet, you failed me in my one request, you failed us all by your own incompetence.” He flinched when I spoke, his entire body trembling at the mere thought of what I was g

    DarcyRhys stared at me in disbelief. His face showed pain and he struggled to control it.“I need to go” He suddenly announced.“Rhys…” I began but I didn't continue and he didn't stop either. I felt my heart ache once the door slammed behind me.I didn't come out of my room the next day, I wasn't sure what my place was in the house anymore, and I wasn't sure of what awaited me. I guess it was an act of cowardice, but what would you have had me do? what would you have done differently? Rhys didn't come back to my room, I didn’t blame him, I saw him fighting to keep his emotions in check, that alone was enough to make anyone want to take action against something they couldn’t control. But somehow I felt I was right.When I couldn’t deal with the tension and when my curiosity got the best of me, I left my room.The house was dead as a corpse, and my presence made no difference to any of it. It was as if the events of the previous day had taken its life, I could hear the maids whisperin

    DarcyWe got back home, Rhys and I.By the time we returned, finding those photos was the last thing on my mind. We couldn't get to see Mr Stark as the doctor strictly advised against it. He insisted that the old man needed time to be monitored and need to rest properly without the bustle that came with visitors.I could not remember much from last night but when I woke up to a throbbing headache . It felt like someone was pounding on my skull with a giant hammer. My eyes were heavy and I could barely focus them. For some reason, I was in my bedroom- still in my bedroom. But I had the most bizarre feeling of déjà vu...“Relax” that musical voice told me. “You are safe now . No one will hurt you.” That voice… that beautiful yet cold voice was familiar to me somewhere...Rhys.My eyes that I had closed suddenly snapped open as I looked into his mesmerizing pair of sapphire eyes , staring back at me, as if he knew what I was going through.“No one is here to hurt you...”He repeated, rea
