Darcy

He stopped and turned to me.

I could see doubt and disbelief in his eyes, but I was used to it. He would look at me like that a lot, but now he didn’t have the same intensity. He had always looked at me with such confidence, almost as though he were the one who knew everything all along.

“What did you say?” Even his steps toward me were guided by uncertainty. “I don’t understand.” His hands balled into fists, but they only gripped each other once, and then loosened again before he continued walking towards me.

The movement reminded me of when we first met, but not for any reason I would ever want to admit.

“What did you just say?” He repeated, this time much more assertively. A slight shake of his head that screamed “No, that can’t be right. There has to be something else, I know there is... But what...?” but he didn't say it.

My chest tightened. “It was Vincent’s fault,” I said in an attempt to defuse the situation. The words felt strange on my lips. “I overheard him when I w

  • Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess    Illusions

    DarcyI ran through the dark woods with the little bag I had carried, trying to escape. The sounds of pursuit rang in my ears, and I could hear a couple of dogs bark out after me. I didn't know if it was my imagination but I picked up my pace. My heart thumped heavily against my chest and the sound echoed throughout the silent forest. Suddenly the moonlight lit up the leaves on the trees and illuminated everything around me for an instant before they were shrouded by darkness again.I needed to get as far as I could if not he was going to find me. That wasn’t an option at all, and I couldn’t go back. Not now. I wouldn't let that happen to me.“Are you insane Darcy? What are you doing? We need to get back now” she yelled at me from behind. “We have bigger problems than this! This is about safety, you idiot!”“I am leaving without him!” I screamed back to her over the rushing of my blood in my ears. “Didn't you hear what he said?” I stopped to pant. The tears were burning hot, sliding

    RhysHer eyes fluttered open and she caught me staring right in her face. It was the worst possible timing, so she closed them immediately. A sigh of relief escaped her lips as she felt the weightless feeling of the bed beneath her back once more. I looked away, giving her the room for all she got.“The nightmares are back aren't they?” I asked her quietly.She opened one eye then the other again, peeking over at me. “No,” she whispered.I nodded my head, understanding completely why she would want to keep that secret from me. My own nightmares still plagued me, I wasn't better than her.“You said you needed to get your child away from him”. My voice came out stronger than I meant it to be, but that caught her attention immediately because she sat up, eyes wide in fear. She reached for her drawer and fumbled inside for something before pulling a small vial from within.Her breathing became heavy as she poured some liquid into her hand and squeezed it against her chest as though try

  • Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess    Past And Present Time

    RhysIt was dark when I saw the figure laying by the road. The more I drove closer, the more details became clear. I pulled over by a corner and moved towards it.The figure looked like a corpse. And it was cold to my touch. The hair seemed damp from the dew in the air. A chill passed through me and for once in my life I didn't feel like going into town to grab a drink. When I turned it around, it looked like the person's face had been torn. She was unconscious and I knew the culprits.“Stupid bitch” I spat as I stared at her.I had warned her before leaving her in the hospital. But she had this theory about my being the villain of a crime she couldn't solve on her own. If that was true then I'd take advantage of that and go back home. But now it would be a long night for me.I reached forward with both hands to lift up the body but hesitated for a second.“Get up Darcy” I muttered under my breath but nothing happened.“This girl is dead” I thought to myself. “She has probably died

    DarcyI was stuck in a maze that was all I could say about my life recently. I had the same dream all over again and it wouldn’t stop nor leave me alone. I was drained. It got so bad that I didn't want to close my eyes anymore.It was dark and I was in an unfamiliar place. I could hear the sound of water flowing somewhere nearby but I couldn't pinpoint where. It seemed very quiet and peaceful, unlike everywhere else. A slight chill brushed over my skin. I shivered, my body was stiff despite the warmth surrounding me. Something was calling for me and I followed it without question.My feet carried me across the grass, the water was still flowing nearby and my ears were alert to any sounds. As far as I could see there was nothing but trees. At least there was nothing threatening to attack me here, at least nothing that I could see. So what was this place? Was it safe? Maybe it was something bad, maybe I should turn around right now and walk away.“You've come” The voice sounded deep a

    VincentShe was naked when she walked up to me. Her firm breasts shook with each step took towards me.Soon we were facing each other.“You want me, don't you?” She whispered into my ear seductively. I smiled and nodded, unable to hide my desire for her. She reached out to me.I leaned in to touch her, but her hand stopped mine at the last second. “Wait” she breathed out as if she was trying hard to remember how to use her voice. Then she looked around. I didn't think much about it. My mind was focused on something else. Something important, but I couldn't quite figure out what it was. So many emotions rushed through me at once that I felt dizzy. I could only stare down at her. Her soft, white skin and bright blue eyes. She looked like an angel, or a fairy tale princess.When I closed in the space between us, she willingly let me as our lips explored, our bodies pressed together against our chests. Our lips parted slowly, our tongues intertwined and began to explore each others taste

    Darcy We were currently in the bathroom and Rhys didn’t fail to give me all I asked for as his cock slammed into me repeatedly. His movements weren’t steady and precise but were just enough to be satisfying. The sound of our moans mixed as we moved in a rhythm, the pace becoming faster every time I came. My orgasm was on the verge of completion when I felt his hips tense above me and his thrusts become sloppy with cum. He grabbed my hair tightly but not enough to hurt me and pulled my head back sharply so that he could look at me from the mirror. Nothing seemed more sexy than our faces which were twisted in passion.His eyes shone with desire, mine shone with contentment and the need for more, how was that even possible? Sweat dripped from his brow, and he was breathing heavily from the exertion. He was still inside of me though. I wasn't ready yet but it would soon be over. "You're beautiful," he said gruffly after he finally recovered from his lustful frenzy. I was still panting

    DarcyHe was there, on the other side of the street, staring straight at me, and if I hadn't known better I might have thought he was going to walk over to say hello. Then that truck drove past us in the middle of nowhere and he was gone. A gust of wind blew his way and I shivered, even though it wasn’t particularly chilly out. It felt as if I was standing on a precipice looking down at a bottomless pit, and no amount of willpower or will could keep me from falling off. There was nothing here for me except my own thoughts and memories. He had been there, and now he wasn’t, and it had all happened before I could even get started. The sound of the front door opening brought me back to earth. “Tessa! Are you ready yet?” Claire’s voice echoed around me but only made it worse somehow because I knew exactly what kind of energy she had to bring with her into a room like this. She came into view, her arms filled with plastic bags, and looked up at me expectantly. When she saw me standin

    Darcy“What is this?” Rhys's face was as stoic as ever, but a slight tremor in his fingers betrayed his nervousness. I was in deep shit.“Why are you going through my stuff?” I asked instead even though I was trembling terribly inside and had not yet taken the first breath. He'd been at it forever.He stared at me, looking like he might explode any moment. “I don't see why that should be a surprise to you, considering that you enjoy snooping around in my belongings! You've been prying into them since we got here! Now tell me what's going on in your little head! What do you want?”I tried to open my mouth but nothing came out so all I could do was gape uselessly. It made no sense, this whole situation. He'd never spoken to me with such vitriol before. This was different.“You can't say? Exactly what I thought”He said dismissingly and began to walk away clutching the paper tightly.I reached my hand out to touch him, but stopped myself because I didn't know if it would be received wel

  • Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess    Guilt

    Rhys I took out my anger on the files lying helplessly on the table, I took out my anger on my closets, I took out my anger on punching the walls, I took out my anger on anything and everything that came in my way. It didn't matter how much I punched it; no matter how hard I kicked it; all I had to do was think about the fact that she's left me again before I could even feel it. Someone else left me.It felt so good to feel something at all, as though someone else's emotions hadn' really been mine until now. My chest hurt from breathing but also from screaming so loudly, my voice sounded raw and hoarse and nothing like the smooth, rich baritone I always thought it would be. But this pain wasn't enough to keep the rest of the world away, because they were just going back inside their heads anyway, just like everything else. I'd heard that somewhere or another a person can drown themselves by drowning all their problems with too much coffee and not enough water. She didn't love me.

    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

    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

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
