MELANIE

My life had officially turned into a Nollywood drama. That was the only thought running through my head, because what else could you call this?

So Cassandra was behind the fake pregnancy report? She planned to make my dad ship me out of the country to avoid a scandal.

I needed to call Eva. I was scrolling through my recent calls when my bedroom door opened, and Vivian stepped in, staring at me with deep disappointment all over her face.

I put down the phone and took a deep breath. The d

  • Off-Limits Puck: Daddy's Best Friend is my Ruin   Chapter 119: Two Words Long

    MELANIEThe moment Gavin left, I released the breath I had been holding. I felt bad about how I had acted. After accidentally revealing Eva’s pregnancy, I knew Gavin was dying to ask the obvious question... whether Silvio was the father. He couldn’t say it out loud because of Vivian, so I avoided his gaze the entire time. I could feel his eyes on me, but I refused to meet them until he finally left.How did today turn out to be so crappy? Then I turned to face Vivian. I opened my mouth, ready to apologize, but she walked out of the living room, leaving me standing there with all my mistakes.I bit my bottom lip hard and slumped my shoulders, flopping onto the couch. I felt completely overwhelmed.Why did I talk to Vivian that way? I knew I had hurt her, and I was being a total bitch, but… I hated it so much when people acted like they knew what was best for me. No one really did. They only thought they did.I took a deep breath and closed my eyes for a moment, just as I heard the fr

  • Off-Limits Puck: Daddy's Best Friend is my Ruin   Chapter 118: Trading Secrets

    GAVINI stood in front of Vivian as she demanded I leave the house. I stared at her, noticing the anger in her eyes and the way her lips were pressed into a thin line. She was obviously upset.How did I let us get caught like this? We could have handled this better, but Melanie’s comment about Vivian not being her mother had made everything worse.I turned my neck to look back at Melanie. I could tell she already regretted what she had said. After all, Vivian had practically raised her.“Vivian, I understand where you’re coming from,” I said carefully, keeping my voice calm. “And I want to apologize for what you saw.”She refused to look at me, staring straight ahead. “My warning still stands. You need to end whatever this is with Melanie. She’s… she could be your daughter!” The pained look returned to her face.“I’m not his child!” Melanie snapped, coming to stand beside me and gripping my hand tightly. Vivian’s eyes dropped to our joined hands, but she said nothing. “I’m in love wit

    MELANIEWe all stood still looking at each other, with no one able to say a word. The silence was so thick that if someone dropped a pin, it would definitely sound.What was Vivian doing back home? Didn't she say she was off to get some items from the store? As if she could read my mind, she suddenly cleared her throat. “I… I forgot my purse, and had to come back.” She looked like she was hyperventilating; her breathing became faster than normal, her chest rising and falling rapidly. Was she about to have a panic attack?“Vivian, calm down,” I said, holding my hands out toward her.“I don’t understand,” was all she could manage. Then her eyes widened as she lifted a shaky finger, pointing first at us and then at the fake pregnancy report still sitting on the table. “Wait… if you two are… Oh no…” She couldn’t finish the sentence, her hands flying to cover her mouth.“I’m not pregnant!” I announced loudly, and both of them turned to look at me. So Gavin had really believed it, and he

The drama just never ended.“What is it, Vivian? I can see the disappointment written all over your face.”She came in and closed the door softly, then sat beside me on the bed. “I’m not disappointed, Mel. I’m just—”“Disappointed,” I finished for her. “You don’t have to lie. It’s all over your face. You’ve never been good at hiding your emotions. You wear them like a second skin.”She moved closer and grabbed my arm gently. “Melanie, I just… I was so sure you were smarter than this. What’s the use o

    MELANIEStaring at Gavin’s text message, I headed for my bed and sat down.My God. My father really doesn’t waste any time. If I’m not careful, Reynold is going to hear about this fake news, and it’ll be all over the school gossip column by tomorrow.I decided to call him back instead of texting. I needed my main phone back anyway.He picked up on the first ring. I guess the news had really shaken him. An evil little smile tugged at my lips. Why not shake him up even more?“Hello,” I said. “Melanie, what is this I'm hearing?”“What are you hearing?” I replied, keeping my voice casual.He let out a loud breath. “Dalton just called me, saying you’re pregnant. Is it true?”“And what if it is?”“You are really pregnant?”“Is it such a bad thing?”“Come on, Melanie, can you just answer with a straight yes or no? This isn’t a game!”“Who’s playing games with you?”“Fuck.” He sounded so frustrated I almost burst out laughing. Good. I’m just getting started.“Okay. Please just answer this. Y

    GAVIN“What is this I’m hearing about shifting the focus from the Rossis to Dalton Wealth?” Director Flint thundered.He had called me in after I briefed the other agents on the new direction. I straightened in my seat as he stared at me from behind his desk, the morning sun filtering through the window behind him.“I trust you, Thorne, but things have been moving too slowly in this case. I need action. I need results.”I nodded. “Dalton is hiding things, sir. I believe he’s the key that will help us wrap this up.”He just stared out the window for a long moment. “It’s obvious he’s going to win the election. The gap between Wealth and his opponent is widening, Thorne. The final vote is in exactly two months.” Flint snapped his gaze back to me, his eyes hard. “So whatever unorthodox angle you’re chasing, you have sixty days to deliver a smoking gun. Don’t make me pull you off this case. I have faith in you, Gavin. Do not let me down.”“Yes, sir.” I got up from the seat and made my way

    GAVINThe talk with Cassandra had gone to hell.I can't tell when we lost the ability to sit down and have adult conversations. There used to be a time when we could be cordial, even loving. Now every conversation felt like walking through a battlefield. And I knew exactly when it all changed.The

    MELANIE“Fuck!” Gavin swore under his breath. I sat up fast, the sheet slipping down to my waist, exposing my bare breasts. My heart pounded against my ribs as he put a finger to his lips, mouthing “Shh,” and answered the call on speaker.“Dalton,” Gavin said, voice still rough from fucking me.“H
