MY MODELS★

“And take five” the manager said and the cameras stopped shooting Regina.

She began taking off the giant earrings from her ears when Blake suddenly came to her.

“Hey, we need to talk” he grabbed her forearm and pulled her to the direction of another room.

When they were alone, Regina crossed her arms under her breast and gave him a look.

“Why are you looking for me? I thought you dumped me to be with Ivy so what’s the matter now? Are you missing me too soon?” She smirked.

“Yes Regina,I dumped you to be with Ivy because I fell in love with her, fûcking accept it and stop messing with her!!” He warned her.

“Excuse me?” Regina gasped a little.

“I know you’re behind everything that’s happening online, you followed us to the restaurant and secretly took that picture then told the whole world that we’ve broken up so they would come to Ivy again!” He glared at her.

“Again, what? Now that is reaching!” Regina fumed.

“You think I’m reaching? Well how wouldn’t I because you did it once, what are you not capable of Regina! Listen, stay away from Ivy or you will see my bad book!” He gave her a bad look before storming out of the room.

Regina was still angry, how dare he come in here and accuse her of something she didn’t do all for that wretched granddaughter of Delgado.

“I will give you and your little new girl something not reaching” she said angrily before storming out of the room.

DELGADOS” MANSION★

Maya kept checking her account balance and it suddenly came up. She happily just got out of bed before running to the old man’s study.

“Dad” she barged in without knocking and hugged him tight.

“Thank you so much dad” she said happily.

“The next time you misbehave then I will do more than freeze your account, I will make you divorce with my son and leave this family without any custody of your kids” the old man told her and her face turned pale.

“Yes… Yes dad, I promise not to cause anymore trouble” she muttered and left the study room.

When she got back to her room, she dialed Agnes’ number.

“Hey bestie, I’m on my way over to your place” Maya informed her before hanging up.

She got dressed and applied her make up before stepping out of the mansion.

“Carlos!” She called and Carlos ran to her immediately.

“I’m going out, here” she threw her car keys for him.

He nodded and opened the door for her, she stepped in and put on her black shades. Carlos entered the driver’s seat and began driving.

•••

The car stopped in the garage of a big house. Carlos got down and opened the door for Maya immediately.

Maya came down and took off her shades before walking in.

“Agnes!!” She shouted and the door opened, revealing a woman of Maya’s age but sexy in stature just like Maya.

The two women rushed to give themselves a tight hug before they pulled away.

“Look at you Agnes, you look so good” Maya complimented her.

“Thanks and you look..” Agnes stared at Maya from head to toes. “Different, like you haven’t been eaten well, your skin is a bit dark too, honey are you okay?” She looked worried.

Maya turned embarrassed Instead but she cursed Skyler in her mind.

“I was just busy, oh where is your daughter?” Maya looked around.

“She’s not back from school yet, she will be graduating soon” Agnes replied.

“I’m sure she would have become my beautiful, Mason would like her” Maya smiled.

“I thought Mason was married,” Agnes narrowed her eyes.

“He is but it’s not serious, don’t worry your daughter is his taste” Maya chuckled and Agnes held her hands.

“Let’s go in, I have a lot of things to tell you!!” She grabbed Maya and began pulling her in.

EVENING★

Blake: 𝐈𝐯𝐲 𝐈’𝐦 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞, 𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞.

Ivy sighed and stood up from her head, she went to peep from the window and saw Blake without outside.

He saw her and nodded at her. She sighed and grabbed her big jacket before stepping out of her room.

She went outside and walked towards Blake.

“Why are you here?” She asked.

“I just want to see you, how are you doing?” He moved closer to her but she moved back.

“Bad, okay? Blake I’m not fine at all, I’m tired and I just need a break! Why don’t you just leave before someone takes a picture of us and posts it so the world starts accusing me of being a homewrecker,a slut, a shameless girl why? All because I liked you and you have a girlfriend? Like I was gonna chase after you or like I said, Blake break up with Regina because I am interested in you.. you know i-

She was suddenly cut short when Blake grabbed the back of her neck and pulled her closer then slammed his lips on hers.

Her eyes widened, she couldn’t move or blink even when she felt his lips moving on hers but she suddenly pulled away and slapped him across the face.

Blake chuckled and turned his face to the other side.

“Slap me here and I might come back to my senses. I mean, how did it happen so fast, I only came to shoot a movie but I couldn’t get you off my head. I even dumped my girlfriend because I couldn’t stop thinking about you. Each time I wake up, I see your smile, your pretty smile is the only thing I can think of all day without getting damn tired, how did it happen because I don’t understand, what did you do to me?” He asked with teary eyes.

Ivy was also crying.

“What did you do to me, Ivy?” Blake took her hands again.

“I’m scared, why are they not attacking you? Why is it only me?” She cried.

“Because social media is dumb! Society loves it when two women beef with each other, don’t give a fûck about what they say, that’s why they don’t come to men because we don’t give a fûck” he told her.

Ivy was still crying.

“Come here” Blake pulled her for a hug and kissed her forehead.

“Social media can’t make us happy, if I were living up to them then I wouldn’t be bold enough to tell Rebecca that I don’t love her anymore, I won’t be bold to tell you that I want to start something serious with you and wipe of all these tears from your eyes so I can see that smile again” he whispered to her.

Ivy slowly looked up at him.

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have avoided you earlier,” she muttered.

“It’s okay I understand you, let’s first focus on fixing this online mess and taking care of your mental health before talking about us” he said softly.

Ivy nodded and wrapped her arms tightly around his waist while he gently rubbed her back.

NEXT DAY; D•S STYLES★

Sunny sat in front of her laptop, typing something.

BREAKING NEWS: D•S style announces that a competition to help upcoming fashion designers will be held next week.

“And post!” She muttered and clicked the post button.

🔸His Bride From No Where🔸

✧༺❃༻✧

( 𝘊𝘢𝘯’𝘵 𝘚𝘵𝘰𝘱 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘈𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘚𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘦)

Skyler swallowed the pills in her mouth before pressing her lips together and raising her head up to meet Edna’s gaze.

“Why do you have the after sex pills or should I call it plan B?” Edna’s eyes widened as she asked.

“Look Edna just give it back okay?” Skyler stretched her hands to take it but Edna raised her hands up.

“You and Mason had sex!” She gasped.

“I.. yes we did okay now give me” Skyler wanted to take it from her again but Edna happily raised her arms up.

“Gist me Skyler! I want details!!” She squealed.

“Look, we just had sex okay? Can you give me before someone enters and sees this with you!” Skyler looked annoyed and Edna pouted as she returned the tablet back to Skyler.

“You know you guys are making me someone, each time I look at you and Mason, I feel like finding a guy that would make me happy but each time I think of Ivy, I can’t help but think that love is a stress which is why I’m better off without man, I love my name more, I love the fame” Edna whispered to her and winked.

Skyler opened her cupboard and put plan B inside before turning to face her.

“Don’t just chase fame too much and miss out on starting a new family for yourself but I trust grandpa, he would force you to get married and settle down before he dies” Skyler said and Edna chuckled.

“So concerning your dress, Mason told me that D•S will be holding a competition for upcoming fashion designers so I’ve decided to apply, I’d make your dress there and I should be done with it before the red carpet date” she told Edna.

“Sounds cool, you’re making my dress and chasing your fame at once” Edna smirked and Skyler just rolled her eyes.

•••

Mason just stepped out of the old man’s study just to bump into Rosa.

“Mason..” she looked at him from head to toes and forced a smile at him.

Mason rolled his eyes and wanted to take the other side but she said something that made him stop all of the sudden.

“How did your vacation with your wife go? Were you two able to make some great grand babies for your Grandpa?” She asked with that fake smile plastered on her face.

Mason stared at her and no one needed to tell him that Rosa was behind the drugging.

“Listen to me, stay away from me, my wife and my family affairs from now on have I made myself clear?” He gave her a no play look.

“I don’t understand what you’re talking about?” Rosa blinked and chuckled nervously.

“The next time you try to drag my wife and I into your fuel with my mom then it won’t end well for you, have I made myself clear aunt?” He repeated while giving her a serious look.

Rosa didn’t know what else to say, she just nodded and Mason walked away. In anyways she just smiled before going her own way.

✬✬✬✬✬✬✬

IVY’S ROOM★

Mason slowly knocked on the door.

“It’s open, come in!!” Ivy, who was lying on her head, shouted and Mason opened the door.

The moment Ivy saw him, she jumped off the bed and ran to hug him immediately.

“Bro you’re back, where is Skyler? Why isn’t she coming to see me!!” She pouted her lips at him.

The door cracked open and Skyler stepped in, Ivy went away from Mason and ran to hug Skyler tightly.

“I miss you sister in law, hey Grandpa sent me the pic of Mason you sent to him, I’m glad the both of you were having fun” she held Skyler’s hands as she spoke happily.

“Really?” Skyler smiled.

“Yes , grandpa sent it to me and mom, do you know how bad I wanted to post that on my IG handle?” Ivy groaned.

“Tell me about it,” Skyler chuckled.

Mason’s eyes darkened as they were talking about him, they might have forgotten he was standing there.

“Ahem” he cleared his throat and they both turned to face him.

“I heard about the online clash,” he said.

“Blake and Regina thing?” Skyler’s eyes widened a little.

“Yes, Blake and Regina broke up and the whole world is saying it’s because of me. It’s so devastating” Ivy turned sad.

“Awwn, come here” Skyler went to hug her.

“Don’t say anything concerning the rumors, okay. I will bring up bigger news and they will forget about this” he told her.

“What big news? You will finally tell everyone that you’re Mason Delgado?” Ivy asked.

“That one is for later, D•S will be holding a new competition for fashion designing, announcement will come tomorrow and registration starts next week” he replied and Ivy’s eyes widened in excitement.

“That’s cool bro, are you going to work today?” She asked and Mason nodded.

“Bummer, I’ll just spend time with Skyler instead” Ivy waved her fingers at Skyler and Skyler did the same.

When they were done, they left the room and Ivy’s phone began ringing. It was Blake calling, she just declined and fell back on her bed.

••••

Mason already left for work when Skyler was sitting alone in the room when a knock sounded on the door.

“Come in” she said and Maya stepped in.

She came to visit Skyler when she saw Mason had stepped out.

“Mom” Skyler stood up.

“Skyler, welcome back, I see you had a good time with Mason, how are you?” She faked a smile as she talked politely.

Skyler found it weird that Maya would talk to her this politely but with the little time she had spent living under the same roof with her, she was guessing that Maya wanted some favors.

“That day on the phone when I apologized to you, I felt bad because I couldn’t do it face to face but now that you’re here I want to apologize” she forced a tear out of her eyes and cleaned it.

“I forgive you mom” Skyler smiled at her.

Maya shook her head and went on her knees but Skyler immediately helped her up instantly.

“Don’t mom!!” She said with pleading eyes.

“I’m sorry for all the offensive words I’ve said to you since you came to this house, dad has punished me enough, I haven’t eaten well and see my completion and my legs. I’ve been trekking to work, I couldn’t even go together” Maya cried as she explained herself.

“Mom get up from your knees first” Skyler pleaded but Maya refused to stand up.

“Please I’m so sorry, I’ve learnt my lesson so please plead with grandpa for me” Maya cried.

“I will talk to Grandpa, mom, please stand up,” Skyler replied.

“Really?” Maya asked and Skyler nodded immediately.

Maya agreed to stand up and held Skyler’s hands.

“Thank you so much” she said before leaving the room. She immediately dried her tears and turned back to glare at the door before walking away.

D•S STYLES★

The moment Mason’s car stopped at the parking lot, he saw reporters waiting outside and he let out a quiet sigh.

“Here boss’ ‘ Alvin passed him the nose mask and sunglasses.

Mason collected it and put them on before opening the car and stepping down. The reporters gathered him immediately, flashing their aggressive lights on his face.

👥Welcome back Mason!

👥We heard you went to spend the weekend with your wife!

👥How does your wife looks like!

👥I will pay you all the money in my account if you can take your mask and glasses off!

👥Mason!!

👥”When will you open a social media account?

👥Mason!!

They began following him, taking pictures and asking him annoying questions. The hefty bodyguards were protecting him from the paparazzi before they touched some part of his face and body.

They finally got in, the employees were greeting him but he didn’t bother replying as he got to his office.

“Welcome back Mr Mason, I trust you had a good time with your wife” Sunny entered the office in her professional attire while holding a schedule book.

“I didn’t want to wait for you to ask me to do my job, these are the records of everything that happened in the company while you were away” she put it on his table and bowed a little.

“Okay, I’ll call you back if I have any questions” he nodded and she began leaving.

“Hold on” he stopped her and she looked at him.

“Don’t fail to announce D•S will be starting a competition show for the upcoming fashion show tomorrow, put that in your reminder book” he said.

Sunny nodded and walked away from the office and Mason took off that nose mask instantly.

Alvin then stepped in with a small box in his hands.

“Boss, a package for you just arrived” he walked towards the table and dropped it.

“Open it” Mason replied and Alvin nodded and opened the box.

A giant deadly spider came to his view and he screamed immediately. Mason’s eyes darkened as he stared at it, he picked the spider up by the leg.

“Boss..” Alvin covered his mouth so he wouldn’t scream.

How could he keep up an alive deadly spider with his hands. Alvin wanted to puke with the scary sight of it.

Mason took the letter from the box and passed it to Alvin.

“Read it” he ordered.

Alvin opened the letter and began reading.

“I’ve been waiting for you my dear friend, do you like the gift, don’t worry you’d see more than skeleton and knife painting” Alvin’s eyes widened when he was done.

“This is a harassment boss! How long has this been going on, should I call the police or maybe tell your grandpa?” Alvin looked worried.

Mason scoffed and stared at the spider that has been dangling and trying to bite him.

“Put the letter back inside the box” he said and Alvin did as told, he put the spider back in before covering the box.

“Throw it away,” he ordered.

“Boss” Alvin looked worried.

“Now” he said with a black look.

Alvin nodded and took the box then left the office. Mason sighed and rested his head backwards.

DINE WITH ME★

A waitress just dropped some food on the table where Mason and Skyler were sitting.

“Thank you” Skyler smiled at her and watched her leave before staring at Mason who was already pouring some wine in the class.

“Here you go” he stretched the glass to which she accepted with a smile.

They began eating but Mason was just starting at her. Come to think of it, how they met and married was quite funny, he met her from no where and proposed to her and she agreed, they married the same they she was about to marry that freak.

Skyler slowly looked up when she felt some gaze on her, she caught Mason gaze but he didn’t make an attempt to hide.

“What? Do I have some food on my face?” She slowly blinked at him.

Mason chuckled a little with surprised Skyler.

“I just want to know more about you, I mean it’s been close to a month, we should know more about ourselves” he told her.

Skyler thought he was saying making sense and she nodded.

“You’re right, what do you want to know about me?” She asked.

“Your last name is Skyler Wang, are you a Chinese?” He started his first question.

“Hmm” Skyler nodded.

“Half Chinese half American, my father was a Chinese man and my mom is an American” she added.

“So you have a Chinese name, can I hear it?” Mason dropped his fork as he seemed more interested in this conversation.

“Yes I do, it’s actually Jingxue” she said.

“Jing xue..” Mason pronounced carefully, “Does it have a meaning?” He then asked.

“It means kind, a helpful person, someone always ready to assist” she answered.

“Interesting, so tell me about your dad” he asked and sipped from his wine.

Skyler sighed a little before smiling hurtfully.

“Well my father was just like me, his name is Chareen Wang, I should say he was a born legend in the fashion industry, his dream is to finally be known as one of the best and he actually worked for it.. you know he was selected to join this popular show of fashion designing, he won and was about to face millions of crowds to collect his reward but he had an accident and died on his way” she narrated to him.

“That sucks” Mason muttered.

“Hmm, but it’s the past, I’ve long accepted it and I promise to make a name for myself and make my father proud” she let out another smile and nodded to herself.

“I trust you, so your wedding dress, I noticed the design looked a bit unique, wanted to ask but I forgot” he raised another question.

“Oh I designed it myself, it took months” she replied.

“Really?” Mason looked a bit surprised.

“Yes but it was such a waste” she sighed afterwards.

“You really are very talented, you know D•S will he holding a design competition next week, how about you join, I’ll send you the link to register” he told her.

“I will love to but Edna’s dress?” She looked at him.

“Take it as your project there, if you become a worker there then it can help you” he replied.

Skyler smiled happily.

“Of course, I’ll love the join oh and I have questions for you too” she leaned closer and smirked at him.

“Shoot” he rolled his eyes.

“If you met another girl on the road that wasn’t me then would you actually marry her?” She asked, paying close attention to him.

“I was gonna go to Paris and drag Linda to marry me” he replied.

“Linda?” Skyler creased her brows.

“Hmm, my ex cause she stood me up but I saw you in a wedding dress and I had no patient so..” he shrugged his shoulders and cut a piece of meat then put in his mouth.

Skyler was shocked with his reply, she shook her head at him.

“Were you really born like this?” She asked.

“Like how?” He looked confused.

“Cold, emotionless, do you even smile?” She narrowed her eyes.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, I just love my work too much that I don’t have the time to smile anymore” he shrugged again.

“You’re a workaholic then, why are you one thou?” She asked again.

“No reason, when I was in my junior high school everyone hated me because I was ugly and a dullard, I even asked a girl out and she humiliated me publicly but I decided to buckle up not because of her but everyone and I suddenly became better, as I was getting better I wanted more, I loved the respect and the fame and everything, I just loved it” he explained.

“But you should try to smile more, it’ll look good on you” she told him and he nodded before raising his glass up to her.

“Cheers?” He gave her a look.

“Cheers” she smiled and clicked her class with his.

DELGADOS’ MANSION★

It’s family dinner, Maya slowly climbed down the stairs and walked pass everyone to get a glass of water but Grandpa Mario called her back.

“Maya, sit and join us, Rosa told us you apologized to her” he said and Maya froze on her step.

She turned back and stared at Rosa who just ignored her and kept eating.

“Thank you Dad” she smiled and went to join them.

They were eating but Carson was busy pressing his son.

“Emily take the phone from your son” grandpa Mario frowned.

Carson heard and tried deleting what he was browsing but Emily snatched the phone from him immediately. She stared at it, feeling a little surprised before staring at Carson who slowly faced his food.

“Always obey the rules Carson, no computer in the dinning” She said afterwards.

✬✬✬✬✬✬✬

REDLOCK HOTEL★

Mason and Skyler already came back for dinner and this time they were getting ready to sleep.

While Mason was sitting on his bed and pressing his laptop, Skyler came out of the bathroom in her nightie.

She felt uncomfortable because it was transparent and short, she might have grabbed it by accident.

She ignored Mason and lay down, facing the other side.

“Don’t stay up late too much” she reminded him before closing her eyes.

Mason’s eyes were in his laptop, working for almost three hours before he turned to face her.

He was a bit startled to see her sleeping position had changed, she was now facing him, her blanket was off hey body and her nighties were exposing her fresh laps to his view.

He wasn’t drugged this time but he was begining to get hard by staring.

✧༺❃༻✧

( 𝘋𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘚𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘦?)

Felix looked shocked to bump into Skyler and even more shocked when he saw her hugging another man’s arm where by he was doing the same with Felicia.

Mason looked at Skyler when he saw she was looking at them but with the look in her eyes, he could guess who she was looking at.

“Let’s just go in” Skyler whispered to him and tried moving in but Felix suddenly block their part.

“Felix!” Felicia whispered and shook her head trying to tell him not to cause a scene but Felix ignored her.

He stared at Mason from head to toes before looking at Skyler.

“Who’s this guy?” He asked with an angry look.

Skyler really wanted to punch him, the audacity he has to ask her such questions. She gave him two years of her life and he cheated on her, no remorse to even try to win her back but he was still having dinner dates with the person he cheated on her with.

A thought suddenly came to her head and she smirked.

“You want to know who? He’s my husband” she replied and hugged Mason’s arms tighter.

Mason didn’t say anything, he just kept a straight face as he watched them. Felix stared at Skyler speechlessly then brought his eyes to Mason and suddenly burst into laughter.

“Felicia can you hear this? Husband? She said he’s her husband, she’s married” he looked at Felicia as he laughed.

Felicia didn’t say anything because she was too ashamed to stare at Skyler or the handsome man beside her and people were passing, she was embarrassed.

“Come on Skyler you’re really funny, just admit that you were stalking me and when you found out I’d be here, you hired this guy from no where and act like you two are married just to make me jealous” he laughed so hard again.

Skyler was gripping on Mason’s hands, trying to control her anger and Mason brought her hands to her knuckles and rubbed it gently. It seemed to calm her down a little.

“Are you done? You’re scaring my wife with your strange behavior?” Mason then gave Felix a look that portray no emotions.

“It’s like you don’t know something, this woman here was supposed to be my wife but she..

“She ran away from you because you cheated on her with that” he said ‘that’ by using his head to point Felicia before he continued.

“Then I continued from where you stopped, this beauty can’t go to a waste, it’s your loss” he shrugged before looking at Skyler.

“Let’s go in?” He asked.

“Hmm” Skyler nodded at him and they began moving forward.

“Skyler!” Felix left Felicia and went to block the door with his hands.

“I’m only one call away, when you’re tired this bullshit then you can come back to me, I will always accept you” he ignored Mason and faced Skyler.

“You really wish, I’m about to have a dinner date with my husband so how about you let us go in and continue fucking Felicia’s hole like you do?” She gave him a kind of look and without waiting for his reaction, she pushed him off her way.

“Thank you” she smiled and began going in with Mason.

Felix hurriedly went after them, he saw a waitress carrying an empty tray of drinks and he snatched a glass from her.

He aimed at Mason’s head and threw but Skyler was quick enough to noticed.

“Mason duck!!” She shouted out of fright. Mason did as told and the class flew pass him, crashing on another person.

Felix gasped in shock and without waisting time, he took his heels.

“Security don’t let that guy putting on a green suit run past the exist” the waitress brought out a walkie talkie and announced to a guard.

“You okay?” Mason faced Skyler with a worried look.

“I should ask you that!” Skyler asked looking at his body to see if he was hurt.

“I’m fine” he muttered before looking out at the guard waiting outside for Felix.

The guard caught Felix before he could enter his car and in seconds the police came and Felix was shackled.

“Wait don’t take only me, I came with my date!!” Felix shouted as the police pushed him to the car.

“We don’t see any body, get in” the police men pushed Felix in.

Felix peeped out to see Felicia driving his car out of the restaurant.

“That bitch” he muttered.

JUST 4 YOU★

This was another restaurant where Ivy and her teams were celebrating. They could be spotted sitting together in a round table.

“Hey why don’t we make this fun, who anyone can eat the spiciest food in this restaurant?” director James suddenly asked.

“Why are you asking director?” Ivy replied with an eye roll.

“Well” Director James cleared his throat before bringing out two tickets. “I’m not holding the last two tickets of John Walker play” he added and almost everyone jumped from their table.

“Director where did you get them from?”

“Wanted to get one earlier but it was sold out!”

“Director!!”

They were bugging him already.

“Hey that’s why I said let’s play a came to get it, we’ll just go with two levels and the lucky two people will make it to John Walker’s play and he’s acting live” director James smirked and everyone began screaming again.

“Ready?” He asked and they nodded then a plate of the most spiciest chicken was ordered for each of everyone of them.

“In there, two, one.. go!!” He clapped his fist and they began eating, some were already crying.

Blake was about to finish his, he looked at Ivy and saw she haven’t eaten much and he smirked before some from her plate and adding on his.

Ivy stared at him and he winked at her, director James saw them but didn’t say anything.

Only four were able to eat, they were Ivy, Blake, Daisy and Blake’s manager named Patrick.

“Okay now to cool your spirits I’ll be going with the romantic deserts, I’ll be ordering two big ice cream Sundays and the rules is that, a male and female will eat from a cup without straws and the first to win, wins the tickets” director James announced and people were clapping.

Two giant cups of ice cream Sundays were brought to their table.

“Oh no director, I can’t eat this, I’ll gain so much weight!” Ivy looked scared.

“You don’t have to worry about your weight anymore, you’re done shooting” director James replied.

“And whether you look thick or thin, you’re still very beautiful” Blake added and people began gushing.

Ivy cheeks burnt red but she just nodded.

“Okay I’ll eat with Ivy, Patrick you eat with Daisy” Blake said and Patrick nodded.

“You want us to eat ice cream together? What about Regina? Won’t she get mad?” Ivy looked a little worried.

“Uhm, actually Regina and I broke up” Blake cleared his throat a little when he said that.

“Huh?” Everyone looked surprised.

“Is it because of me?” Ivy slowly asked.

“No! Trust me, really” he shook his head immediately before facing everyone.

“Please let it remain a secret, I don’t need any attention on my private life and decision” he pleaded.

“Don’t worry Blake, you know Regina is too clingy, I don’t even like her” Patrick rolled his eyes.

Ivy stylishly stared at Blake, she felt happy that he was finally single, she can actually try getting close to him but at that same time she felt fear with the thought of people hating on her if she dates him.

“Let’s start eating, the ice cream is melting!!” Director James yelled and they eating competition started.

Blake was sitting opposite Ivy and they were eating from their side without using the straw likewise Daisy and Patrick.

“I’m team Blake and Ivy!! Eat fast eat fast!!” Some people were cheering.

“I’m having brain freeze here” Ivy pulled away from the ice cream and began complaining.

“Come on Ivy let’s do this, think of John Walker’s play” Blake reminded her and Ivy nodded before eating again.

The ice cream separating their lips from eachother suddenly fell off and Blake lips accidentally brushed with Ivy’s.

It felt like time froze for the both of them, Ivy slowly brought her gaze to Blake’s face and she met him staring at her, he also looked shocked.

“We won!! Yes!!” Daisy shouted, bringing Blake and Ivy back to earth.

“What?” Blake looked shocked.

“Sorry boss” Patrick smiled and shook hands with Daisy.

“It’s not fair, Daisy give me your tickets or I’ll fire you!” Ivy stood up and stretched her hands out.

“No way!” Daisy struck her tongue out and began running.

“Daisy, I am your boss so listen to me!!” Ivy yelled and began chasing after her.

Everyone were just watching them and laughing but Director James was secretly typing something on his phone.

“I got a new information about Blake, Ivy and Regina. Blake and Regina has broken up and he’s getting close with Ivy” he typed to a number before sending a picture of the accidentally kiss Blake had with Ivy.

LIGHTHOUSE HIGH★

Carson just rested his head on his table, looking at Mr Brown ( their maths teacher ) facing the board and solving some maths. He couldn’t understand or even hear what Mr Brown was saying.

His eyes were closing and opening,he was dozing and trying not to sleep off but it wasn’t helping.

Mr Brown turned to face them and he suddenly transformed to James. Carson’s eyes cleared immediately.

James smirked at him and threw the chalk away before walking towards him in slow motion.

“James what are you doing?” Carson looked confused.

James just smirked and brought his fingers to raise Carson’s chin up. He leaned closer to his face and smirked even more.

“Admit it Carson, you want me” he whispered, still leaning closer to Carson and Carson slowly closed his eyes.

“Carson”

“Carson!”

“Carson!!” Mr Brown flicked Carson’s head this time and Carson woke up from his imagination instantly.

He looked around and noticed the class was laughing at him.

“You’re sleeping in my class and pouting your lips at me, are you kissing a girl in there?” Mr Brown said and the students laughed even more.

Carson felt his cheeks burn red in embarrassed.

“I’m sorry sir” he muttered.

“Sorry for yourself, it’s either you sit straight or leave my class” Mr Brown scoffed and went back to the board.

Carson began rubbing on his temple wondering why his moment with James won’t leave his head.

‘If those guys didn’t open the door, would I have kissed him?’ he thought to himself.

“Hey Carson, are you really okay?” Fred moved closer to him and whispered.

“Who were up kissing? You almost kissed Mr Brown” Simon whispered and him and Fred laughed among themselves.

Carson glared at them before stylishly turning back, he saw James sitting somewhere there and giving him those dark smile, he immediately faced his front.

EVENING; REDLOCK HOTEL★

Mason stood in front of the mirror, arranging his tie in his well ironed suit properly, he picked up a perfume and spray on the sides of his neck.

Someone rang the bell of their room and he dropped the perfume before going to see who it was. A female attendance stood, holding a medium sized pox.

“This package came for you sir” he said and Mason collected it from her then closed the door.

The door by the left opened and Skyler came out pointing a blue dress on her body.

“Mason you’re a fashion designer too, how does this look on me?” She asked with a type of nervous smile.

Mason started at her from head to toes. “Hideous” he replied without beating around the bush.

“Excuse me?” Skyler widened her eyes and he stretched the box he was holding to her.

“What’s there?” She narrowed her eyes at him.

“Why don’t you first find out” he replied and she opened the box immediately. What welcomed her was the sight of a really good looking red designed dress.

She gasped and brought it out.

“Mason.. this..” she didn’t even know what to say.

“Do you like it?” He asked but she was still to shock to reply.

“I got it for you because I thought it would look really good on you, try it and see for yourself that I’m not wrong” he said proudly.

“I… thank you Mason” Skyler smiled at him before going back to the bathroom.

Few minutes later, she came back dressed in the red gown with some makeups, her hair was let down and few accessories on her body with silver heels.

“Well?” She asked nervously but Mason was just looking at her without saying anything.

He thought she looked really beautiful, if he had seen other women in the past including Linda but he was sure that they were no where compared to this woman standing in front of him.

“I look horrible don’t I” Skyler pouted her lips sadly and Mason came back to earth immediately. He cleared his throat and put his hands in his pocket.

“Sincerely speaking, you look really beautiful” he said with the most sincere look ever and if Skyler wasn’t wrong, she could see some sparkles in his eyes.

Skyler only just stared at him, not know what to say. That was the most sincere look she had ever seen, even Felix has never looked at her this deep to complement her beauty.

“Thank.. you” she smiled at him before taking her small handbag and moving towards him.

“So where are we going to for dinner?” She asked with a type of smile but Mason’s eyes were on her deep red lips, a little part of her lipstick stained her face and he brought his thumb the wipe it off.

“Surprise” he replied while Skyler just stared at his face without blinking.

“Let’s go” he raised one of his brows up and she blinked before nodding.

And they both left the room.

DELGADOS’ MANSION★

Maya was sitting on a chair in her room and looking at her face in the mirror when someone knocked on her door.

“Who’s there?” She looked from the window and the door opened before Ivy stepped in with a tray of food.

“Mom, here” she hurriedly stepped in and dropped the plate on the bed.

“Ivy” Maya stood up and hugged her daughter tightly.

“Ivy your mother is suffering, look at me I’m not eating well or using good skin products. I’m getting old and ugly” Maya cried.

“No mom, you’re not, Skyler will come back on Monday, just apologize to her and end all these” Ivy cupped her mom’s cheeks and dried her tears.

“Skyler again? Can’t you see she’s the cause of my problems!’ Maya cried out.

“Skyler is really cool mom, you should be glad Mason found her” Ivy replied before stepped away from Maya.

“I won’t be having dinner with you guys, my director is treating us for one so I’ll see you later. I already talked to Grandpa and he said I can go, goodnight and make sure you eat” Ivy waved at Maya before leaving the room.

Maya burst out in tears and fell back on the chair.

✬✬✬✬✬✬✬

DINE WITH ME★

A big signboard with some shining light that says dine with me could be seen as Mason’s car stopped at the parking lot and he came down then helped Skyler with the door.

Skyler gasped on seeing the place.

“You brought me with dine with me?” Skyler looked surprised.

Dine with me was one that of the most biggest restaurant for rich couples to have dinner, she use to admire the place on magazines and YouTube but she would be coming here for real? What a life.

“Now is not the time to drool, let’s go” Mason should her his elbow which she smiled and accepted before they began going in.

The glass door opened automatically for the both of them but Skyler bumped into two unexpected people.

( 𝘋𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘞𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘔𝘦)

Mason kept biting on Skyler’s earlobe which made her hands trembled and she accidentally dropped the bottle of mustered she was holding on the floor.

“Hey what are you doing? I thought.. I thought were having an online conference?” She stuttered at his sudden behavior.

Mason stop biting her earlobe and he rested his chin on her shoulders.

“Where do you want us to go out today?” He asked.

“Uhm.. I don’t know, I still have to work on Edna’s dress and we can take a walk after then go for dinner or something” she suggested with an unsure look.

Mason stayed quiet for a while before nodding.

“Fine by me, I’ll leave you to do your thing” he left a short kiss on her neck before adjusting his nose mask properly on is face and stepping away from her.

After his presence was out of the kitchen, Skyler slapped her cheeks a little for the sudden redness before bending to pick the mustered.

“Get a control of yourself, we just had a night together, it’s nothing, you’re probably just shy” she told herself and nodded before she continued making the sandwich.

✬✬✬✬✬✬✬

DELGADOS’ MANSION★

Maya tiredly climbed down the stairs and went to the kitchen. She opened all the pots but they were empty.

“Matilda, isn’t there any food, even if it’s half a plate?” She gave Matilda who was washing the dishes a pleading look.

“I’m really sorry ma’am, ma’am Rosa said I should pack up the remaining food for her to share with the workers in her company” Matilda replied with her head lowered.

“Can I just have it, let me take a little and I promise you Matilda, if dad opens my account then I would personally double your salary” Maya pleaded.

Matilda was surprised to see that Maya could look this pitiful and helpless, she pitied her so much but she didn’t want to get into any trouble with Rosa since Maya was no longer in control to do anything.

“Ma’am I’ll love to help you but I-”

“If you’re so hungry Maya why don’t you just cook something, grandpa didn’t forbid you from using the kitchen” Rosa climbed down the marble stairs with her glass heels making annoying sounds.

“You’re really jobless Rosa, I don’t deserve the way you’re treating me and I swear once I get out of this I will make you see blood!” As Maya talked Rosa only just smirked at her.

Maya scoffed and opened the cupboard, she took out some knifes and some vegetables.

“I don’t know why I need to beg any of you! I can do it all on my one!” She gritted her teeth and began chopping the tomatoes but she accidentally cut her fingers.

“Ouch!” She screamed and dropped the knife on the floor.

Rosa burst out into laughter while Matilda gasped worriedly.

“Ma’am, are you okay?” Matilda covered her mouth with her palms.

Maya fingers were hurting so much, she wanted to cry but she couldn’t do it in front of Rosa.

“Why don’t you just swallow your pride and beg me, you didn’t eat well for two days and it’s showing in your face already, your eyes and cheeks has entered inside and oh” Rosa let out a fake gasp.

“Is that wrinkles on your forehead? Have your beauty cream or tea finished” Rosa feign a worried look.

Maya was really fuming.

“You want to hear sorry right? I’m sorry!” She shouted with her eyed turning red.

Rosa eyes widened and she moved closer to Maya.

“Didn’t your parents taught you how to plead with someone you offend the proper way? Get on your damn knees and apologize to me!” She said harshly, her looks were cold, deep and heartless. She was really enjoying all that was happening right now.

Maya eyes were misty as she stared back, she refused to go on her knees while Jacob who was coming from behind just watched with a displeased look on his face.

“You’re not ready yet, Matilda pack all the food and follow me” Rosa wanted to turn around but Maya immediately went on her knees.

Rosa froze and a smirk slowly appeared on her face.

“I’m sorry for calling you a bîtch, please forgive me” as she said that, tears came out of her eyes.

Rosa started at Maya speechlessly for a while before she suddenly burst into laughter. She laughed so hard that tears came out of her eyes.

Maya felt totally humiliated, she couldn’t control it, Rosa was laughing at her and she broke down in tears.

“Matilda hand over a plate of food to me” Rosa stretched her hands out and Matilda immediately unpacked some of the food inside a plate then handed it to Rosa.

Rosa smirked and poured it on Maya’s face.

“There you go, only dogs kneel and beg for food and that’s what you are! When you apologize to Skyler, we will plead with dad to forgive you” Rosa smiled at her before walking away.

“Ma’am Maya” Matilda immediately rushed towards Maya who was still kneeling on the floor and breathing angrily.

“Don’t touch me!” Maya rushed her off before standing up and staring into space.

“I swear to God Rosa,I will personally make you regret this!”

Rosa was happily walking to her car when Jacob ran after her.

“Mom, hold on for a second!!” He shouted and Rosa stopped then he came to stand beside her.

“Mom I saw what you did to Aunt Maya, it’s not fair” he said and Rosa laughed before turning to look at him in anger.

“Who do you think you are to stop me and tell me what to do when you can’t even do anything useful in your life” she glared at him.

Jacob wanted to talk but he didn’t find anything to say, he just looked down.

“Thought so” Rosa scoffed and walked towards her car.

STARBUCKS STUDIOS★

“And it’s a wrap!!” Director James shouted and everyone began clapping.

They just finished rounding up the movie they have been acting.

“Susan, post it on our platform and later we will work on the release date” director James turned to a young woman dressed in a cooperate way, she smiled and nodded before bringing out her iPad.

“What do we do next director?” Ivy asked.

“We wait for the release date and before that, the two of you need to get yourself in any scandal that can help in promoting the movie even more” director James replied.

“But I’m old man Mario’s granddaughter, isn’t that enough?” Ivy rolled her eyes.

“It’s enough but not all, some days ago you and Blake were involved in a dating scandal, a lot of attention was on your side so why don’t you spice it up” director James smiled at them.

“No thank you, the last time that shit happened Ivy was really down because she was up with lots of hates, we don’t need anyone to cyber bully anyone before we extra promote our movie” Blake shook his head.

“I agree” Ivy nodded.

“Fine, I’ll look for other means and oh, dinner tonight for everyone and it’s on me!!” Director James announced and everyone began clapping.

Blake stylishly looked at Ivy who was clapping along, he smiled and faced his front.

REDLOCK HOTEL★

Skyler just finished working on some part of Edna’s dress before covering her book and stretching her hands.

The telephone began ringing, she looked at Mason and he was still walking, she sighed and went to pick up the phone.

“Hello?”

“Mason” Maya voice sounded.

“Mason your mom” Skyler faced him with the phone.

“I’m busy, tell to tell all she has to say to you then you’d tell me later” Mason continued pressing his laptop.

“Don’t worry, Skyler it’s you I want to talk with, please forgive me, I’m sorry for calling you jinxed and when you’re back, please plead with my dad on my behalf” Maya said in a hurry, without waiting for her Skyler to agree or disagree, she hung up.

Skyler just shook her head and put the phone back on the stand.

“What did she say?” Mason closed his laptop and stood up.

“That she’s sorry for calling me jinxed and I should plead with grandpa on her behalf” Skyler replied and Mason scoffed.

“That’s not how an apology is done, I’m not accepting it” he shook his head.

“But she’s your mother, just let it go” Skyler pouted at him.

“Look at all the fûcks I give” he replied and Skyler just sighed, not knowing what to say.

“So ready for the walk?” He asked and she nodded happily.

He stretched his hands out for her which she accepted before they both left the room.

🔸Married To The Hidden Billionaire:

🔸(Love After Heartbreak)🔸

🔸His Bride From No Where🔸

•••

Back to the room, Skyler just arranged the food on the table before looking at Mason. He was busy on his laptop, she sighed and stood akimbo.

“I thought you brought me here so we could spend sometime together?” She asked out.

“If you’re hungry, you can just eat alone” Mason didn’t spare her a glance as he kept pressing his laptop.

“It’s not fair, can’t we just forget about everything for once and let’s have fun, all work no play makes jack a doll boy” she tried convincing him.

“I can’t afford to play, I have a lot of things to take care of in the company and I can’t do them while staying here and doing nothing” he rolled his eyes and kept typing.

Skyler nodded and moved towards him, she snatched his laptop within a blink of an eye.

“Hey!” Mason stood up and stretched his arms.

“Give it!”

“Make me” she smirked, Mason tried collecting the system from her but she raised her hands up.

“Who says you can’t afford to play? If you want your laptop then come and get it” she wiggled her brows at him then she began to run with it.

Mason didn’t chase after her, he only crossed his arms around his chest with a deep frown.

“Give it!” He said again.

“Come and get it” she smiled at him and he rubbed on his temples tiredly.

“Don’t make me do this” he sounded like he was warning her which made Skyler interested in seeing more side of him.

“Come on, don’t you wanna work? Come on” she showed him the system.

Mason moved towards her but she ran from the other side and sticked her tongue out at him. He moved to her side but she took the other side instead.

“You wanna play, fine” he nodded then suddenly began running around the whole room with her.

When Skyler climbed the chairs, he did too, they ran through the dining and kitchen before they got to the bed room.

“Gotcha” Mason held her forearm the moment he got to her but they suddenly lost their balance.

Skyler fell on the bed and he fell ontop of her. Her eyes widened as she stared at him, she could see his face closely for the first time she has been with him and damn he was really handsome, the grey eye alone can melt any woman.

She felt her hands moved, Mason already took his laptop from her.

“Thank you” he muttered and got up from her then sat on the bed. Skyier also sat beside him, she was panting but asked her question when she calmed down

“How do you know how to run?” She looked at him curiously.

“In school, both highschool and college, I had trophies of the most athletic student, I won race and swimming and all kinds of sports plus I work out a lot” he replied, more like bragging..l

“Wow, you are just too much” Skyler rolled her eyes and stood up.

“We still have to eat before the food..gets cold” she reminded him.

Mason nodded and stood up then also helped her up. He took his laptop and placed it on his study table.

“Let’s eat then” he said and she smiled before they both went to the dining.

Skyler opened the plate and the sweet smell of pork hit her nose.

“I missed this” she smiled and helped herself then helped Mason serve too.

“Thank you” he muttered and took the fork before having a taste.

“How’s it? Is it good?” Skyler was already chewing her food as she stared at him with a smile.

“Hmm” he nodded.

“I bet I will be able to make it more better than the hotel cooks” she smirked.

Mason only shook his head before opening the red whine he ordered for. He poured it on two glass and handed one over to her.

“Thanks and cheers” she stretched her glass to him.

“Cheers” he muttered and they both clicked glasses.

Skyler kept eating and looking at Mason with a smile. She notice he doesn’t smile that way and she began getting curious on how to see him smile one day, maybe he would look extra cute than he already looks.

Mason raised his head to look at her and she immediately faced her food.

••••

In the middle of the night, Mason couldn’t sleep well, he was feeling hot all over his body and kept tossing around the bed.

“Hmm” a silent moan escaped Skyler’s lips and she left her position and moved closer to Mason then hugged him from behind.

Mason’s eyes went wide open.

“Why are you touching me Skyler?” He asked breathlessly.

“I feel hot” her hands went underneath his t-shirt and she kept caressing his bare chest.

“Shit” a low curse escaped his lips and he took her hands away from his body.

“Stop” he said breathlessly. He could feel himself getting hard it just her touch and it kept increasing and increasing, Mason could sense that something was wrong.

Skyler’s hands went straight to his bulge and she began caressing it through his trousers.

“Skyler!” Mason grabbed her hands and stopped her immediately then he turned to face her.

“I think we were drugged” his voice came out as a worse whisper.

“I don’t care, I just want you” Skyler looked at him with watery eyes.

“Me too” he said breathlessly and Skyler leaned closer to capture his lips. He began reciprocating the kiss, giving it back to her, their tongues intertwining against each other.

Mason pulled away and want ontop of her, he took off his t-shirt and through it one-side before ripped her shirt into two.

“We both understood why we did this right? I’m not the pervert here” he told her.

“Yes.. please” Skyler groaned and pulled his face down to hers to capture his lips again.

The kiss began harder this time, Mason’s lips went to her neck, he began sucking and biting at the same time, his hands were pulling her panties out of her legs.

“Have you done this before?” He took his lips from her neck as he peeped at her face.

“Yes just go in already” Skyler groaned and he nodded. The next second he went in and began moving in and out of her really fast.

“Ahhh.. Mason!!”

“Gosh.. slow down a bit” she held his shoulders but he took her hands and pinned them above her head before burying his face on her neck.

“Fuck!” He cursed and began fucking her even more faster, the bed was making rough squeaky sounds with each thrust.

“Mason!!!!!” Skyler screamed out his name.

••••

The next morning, Skyler was still sleeping while Mason was shirtless looking at the bite mark on his shoulder, the one Skyler gave him when she cum last night.

He shook his head and wore a long jacket then took his phone from the stand.

“Alvin, what’s going on in the company today?” He asked as she found his way to his laptop.

“Everything are normal and check your email boss I sent you some links on when to start some online conference, the first one starts by nine so you should get ready” Alvin replied.

Mason opened his laptop and checked his email.

“I’ve seen the link, I’ll call you later” he hung up and began typing something in his laptop.

“Good morning” a tiny voice sounded behind him and he turned back to see Skyler sitting on the bed and rubbing her eyes.

“Morning” he responded to her greetings and stood up from bed. She was putting on one of his t-shirt that looks big and felt comfortable on her body.

“Hungry?” He asked when she stood up and she nodded her head.

“I guess I should just order something for us then” he muttered and began going to his phone but she stopped him immediately.

“I will cook, we can’t waste the kitchen, we only have two days to use it” she pouted her lips.

“Alright, cook something, I’ll head to the shower” he shrugged.

“Are we going out?” She asked enthusiastically.

“Once I’m done with my morning conference” he replied and Skyler shook her head as she watched him walk to the rest room.

She looked at her face in the morning and the hickeys on her neck. Last night was great actually, she was expecting him to bring it up but he didn’t.

She sighed and went to the kitchen, since there was some slice of bread, tomatoes and salad, she decided to make some salad sandwich.

While making the salad, Mason stepped out of the room dressed in his business suit and nose mask, he stared at Skyler’s figure, the shirt was a bit short, showing of her fresh laps and thighs.

He walked over to her and hugged her from behind.

“Mason!” Her eyes widened when his lips moved to her neck again.

“What are you doing?” She tried looking at him from her side but he didn’t let her.

“You know we just consummate the first step of our marriage so why don’t we just continue” he whispered and bit on her earlobes.

Skyler gasped.

Regina turned angry the moment Blake called her Ivy’s name.

“How many days or weeks of shooting did you spend with that girl before you forgot my name!” She said angrily.

Blake’s eyes cleared immediately and he saw Regina’s face, he scoffed and looked at the window again.

“You didn’t answer me!” Regina angrily stump her feet on the ground.

“What do you want from me?” He turned from the mirror to face her.

“You called me Ivy earlier, are you in love with her?” She asked while clenching her fist tight.

Blake only stared at her without replying.

“Answer me!” She shouted at him.

“Yes!” He shouted back and Regina fell speechless.

“W-what?” She slowly asked.

Blake’s eyes softened up a bit and he stood up.

“I’m sorry Regina, I don’t know how it happened” he muttered.

Regina shook her head and tears fell from her eyes. Before he could blink, a sounding slap landed on his face and before he could react, she snatched the glass of whiskey from him and splashed it on his face.

“I knew it, it wasn’t only about the movie! How could you? After everything I’ve done for you, you’re such a traitor!!” She yelled at his face while crying.

“Excuse me what did you do for me? We were both successful before at started seeing eachother and I loved for the time we were together but not anymore” he lowered his voice when he said that last part.

“You’re so heartless!!” She shouted and tried hitting him but he caught her hands.

“Don’t act like you didn’t dump your ex so you could be with me too so can we not make this weird, I’m not in love with you anymore, I’m telling you now so I don’t cheat on you in the future. Try to understand and never forgive me” he said and released her hands.

“Were you ever in love with me Blake? You know what, fuck you asshòle, you will need me back in the future when you realize there is no one else as pretty and better than me” she smirked and picked her coat from the floor before storming out of the room.

Blake just sighed and fell back on his couch.

REDLOCK HOTEL★

Mason didn’t need to wear nose mask as he came down from the car. This was the type of people life he loved, where reporters won’t be there to point their annoying light on his face.

He helped Skyler with the door and she came down before he went to the boot to carry their bags.

“Can you stop doing everything? I have hands” Skyler looked frustrated as she followed him from behind.

He didn’t even reply her until they got to the receptionist.

“Hi, my wife, Skyler Wang, booked for a room for the weekends” he said and Skyler narrowed her eyes as she stared at him.

When the hell did she book for a room?

The receptionist did some things on her laptop for some seconds before looking at them with a smile.

“Skyler Wang, found it” she said and did somethings before bringing out a key.

“Here’s your key, enjoy your weekend Mr and Mrs” she handed it to Skyler since Mason was holding two bags.

“Thanks” Skyler smiled at the woman before leaving with Mason.

••••

The room was nice, the space was okay, there was a bed, a sofa, a study chair and table a bathroom and full equipped kitchen.

“How’s the room?” Mason stared at her when he asked.

“I love it, especially the bed” Skyler replied happily. She was about running to the bed but he grabbed her back by the forearm.

“You can’t just sleep, you have to shower and eat or aren’t you hungry?” He raised one of his brows up.

“I’m hungry” Skyler pouted and rubbed her stomach.

“Okay, what do you want to eat? Let me make the orders” Mason began walking towards the nightstand to take the telephone.

“It has been long since I’ve eaten pork chops” Skyler was mumbling to herself but Mason heard it.

“Hi, yes we will be having some pork chops, room 35, thanks!” He hung up and turned back only to meet Skyler looking at him.

“What?” He raised a brow.

“I didn’t even say I wanted it yet” she replied and he sighed before grabbing the telephone again.

“Hi, cancel the orders!”

“No need to cancel it, I was gonna eat it!” Skyler said immediately.

“Hi, don’t cancel it anymore” after saying that, Mason dropped the telephone back on the nightstand.

Skyler shook her head before going to take out her clothes from the bag.

“I’m going to hit the shower first” she told him and he nodded then she headed to the bathroom.

DELGADOS’ MANSION★

“That brat! How can he leave without informing me first!” Grandpa Mario angrily stabbed his fork on his plate.

They were actually having dinner.

“Hey Dad, what is the name of Mason and Skyler’s hotel?” Rosa asked.

“Redlock, heard it’s really good, the space is okay so I think Mason and Skyler would enjoy their weekends together” Edna replied Rosa’s question with a smile.

While they were all talking, Carson wasn’t eating, he was just using his fork to play with his food which Emily noticed.

“Carson dear, what’s wrong? You’re not eating your food, are you okay?” She gave him a worried look.

“I’m fine mom” Carson looked at her with a smile.

“Anyone else noticed how the table is peaceful because of Maya’s absence?” Rosa said with a smile.

Speaking of Maya, the door just opened and she stepped in looking rough and tired.

“Dad!!” She rushed over to the dining room.

“Dad please forgive me, I can’t do this anymore. I didn’t have breakfast this morning and I had to trek to work, a lot of people were looking at me even the reporters and I’m sure they will be making headlines about me tomorrow” Maya gave the old man a pleading look.

“But you know what to do Maya, just apologize to me and Skyler” Rosa said with a smirk.

Maya did as if she didn’t hear and continued staring at old man Mario.

“Mom, look at you, you look like a mess! Why can’t you just apologize to Skyler and aunt Rosa and end all these!” Ivy rolled her eyes, feeling tired of her mom’s stupid pride.

Maya turned to glare at Ivy.

“I’m your mother, I’m from this family and you want me to just beg a girl from no where?” She widened her eyes in anger as she spoke.

“You know you aren’t from this family, you just happened to marry Dylan, if he divorces you, you’ll no longer be a Delgado so the only person that has right to claim this name is me” Rosa said with a smirk.

“I can’t deal with this right now” Carson shook his head and stood up before leaving the dinning.

“Maya you’ve done enough, apologize to the people you offended or you can just leave our dining” old man Mario kept a frown on his face when he said that.

Maya glared at everyone in the table, her husband and daughter were doing nothing to help her and she was even more mad.

“If I apologise for what I didn’t do wrong then meet me in hell!” She gritted her teeth and stormed upstairs.

“She’s stubborn” Hudson shook his head.

REDLOCK HOSTEL★

Skyler was dressed in a t-shirt and pajama type of trousers while Mason was also dressed in a t-shirt and joggers.

While Skyler was making some videos of herself, Mason was busy on his laptop.

The door bell rang and Skyler immediately jumped from the bed to get the door. A female hotel attendant was holding a cart containing their food.

“I’m really sorry for the delay, we were out of porks so we had to go get it” She gave Skyler an apologetic look.

“It’s fine, thank you” Skyler took the food away from the cart.

“Please enjoy it while it’s hot, I hope you really enjoy your weekend at redlock” the attendance smiled and left then Skyler closed the door.

When the hotel attendance got out of the room, she secretly brought out a phone and dialed a number.

“Hello ma’am, it’s done” she muttered.

“Good” the view of a red painted lips, replied with a smirk.

LIGHTHOUSE HIGH★

🗣️Eww he stink!

🗣️Why is he looking dirty?

🗣️Is that a banana peel on his hair?

🗣️Looks like he just came out of trash bin!

Carson scoffed at the comment he was receiving from the students. He took of the banana peel from his hair and threw it one side.

“Hey Carson are you okay?” Simon asked the moment Carson got to his locker room.

“Do I look okay to you?” Carson frowned and removed his backpack from his shoulders.

Fred was just blocking his nose with his fingers.

“Bro for real, what happened to you?” Fred gave him a kind of stinky look as he asked.

“I wanted to prove to someone that I can drive my own car but I fell inside a trash bin and now my car is under service” Carson replied as he took out a clean pair of uniform before excusing himself to the male restroom.

He dropped his uniform one side and looked at himself in the mirror. He looked dirty, his hairstyle looked messy and awful, even the piercing doesn’t really fit him.

“Gosh I’m a mess, fûck that Ryan guy!” He mumbled angrily as he looked at his reflection.

“I see a bad boy gone wrong here” a familiar male voice sounded from behind and Carson checked the mirror only to see James standing behind him and leaning on the wall by using one of his legs to rest on it.

He rolled his eyes and began removing the dirt from his hair.

James left the wall and went to stand behind him then placed his musuclar hands in the sides of the basin, trapping Carson at his middle.

He leaned closer to look at Carson’s reflection from the window.

“I don’t know why you chose to punish yourself for Gracie when you can just stick with me, I’d never allow you to go through all this?” His voice came out as a husky whisper before he helped Carson took of a dirt from his hair.

“I can sue you for trying to force me into gay, stay away from me James I’m not like you” Carson said angrily.

“Really?” James leaned closer and rested Carson’s ears.

“You’re not like me? My hot and captivating look don’t attract you a bit?” His hot breath fanned Carson’s ears and it made Carson felt a bit ticklish.

“I..” Carson blinked and looked elsewhere.

“I already told you, I’m not like you, stay away from me” he snapped and tried leaving but James suddenly turned him to face him.

Carson’s hands landed on his shoulders while James still trapped him with both of his hands. James was looking into his eyes but Carson wasn’t.

“Why are you avoiding looking into eyes?” James was wearing a smirk on his face as he stared at him.

“Because.. because your eyes are ugly, I don’t want to spoil my sight” Carson stuttered in his reply, his eyes went to his lips but he immediately looked elsewhere.

What the hell was wrong with him? He was feeling uncomfortable in this position.

“Really? My eyes are ugly are you sure about that?” James moved his head to the direction of Carson’s face to meet with his eyes.

Carson gritted his teeth and raised his head to meet his gaze.

“You..” he paused on what he was about to say when his eyes met with James.

James ocean blue eyes were deep and captivating. He couldn’t look away no matter how hard he tried to.

They both stared at themselves in silence before James began leaning closer to him. His lips were a little close in touching Carson’s when the door opened and some guys stepped in.

Carson got back to his senses and pushed James off before taking his uniform and going to another empty rest room.

🗣️Hey James, you look extra handsome today!

They began complementing him but James only left the restroom with a smile.

DELGADOS’ MANSION★

It was already 5pm in the evening, Mason entered the room and met Skyler staring at two bags containing the both of them clothes.

“Are you set to leave now? I left the car on” he said and Skyler turned to face him.

“Of course I’m ready” she nodded at him and his eyes went to her small bag.

“You’re sure this is everything you need?” He raised on of his brows up.

Back then when he use to take Linda out with him, she carries a lot of things, one bag for her clothes, another for her makeups, another for shoes and some for her skin but she still complains it wasn’t enough.

“We are staying for three days not a week so I’m not supposed to carry a giant bag” Skyler rolled her eyes and shook her head.

“Okay, let me help you with it” he took the bag from the bed along with his own before he began leaving the room.

“Are we not going to greet everyone first?” Skyler asked as she followed them from behind.

“No need, they are still at work, let’s leave” he shook his head, he really didn’t want to see anyone especially the old man before leaving but the door opened and the two fight buddies suddenly appeared.

“Skyler!” Ivy and Edna called at the same time as they rushed towards them.

Mason felt upset but couldn’t do anything, he just stared at Skyler, waiting for her to answer them so they could leave before the old man comes out and start giving them bunch of advice or talking about great grandchildren.

“Skyler! I came to say goodbye before you leave” Edna was the first to get to her.

“Same here!” Ivy was breathing heavily as she glared at Edna from behind.

“No need to glare, we all know you’re always the second. I came to earth before you, got famous before you, made friends with Skyler before you and now I’m greeting her before you” Edna stock her tongue out.

“And you will also dìe before me” Ivy added with a cute smile and Edna gasped.

“Hey not now!” Skyler stopped the fight that was about to happen while Mason was looking at his wrist watch with a frown.

“Well it doesn’t matter who said it first, I appreciate the both of you and I will see you guys on Monday. Please try to stop fighting with each other, for my sake?” Skyler gave them a pleading smile.

Edna huffed. “I love you Skyler but I can’t do that”

“Neither can I” Ivy added and Edna rolled her eyes.

Skyler wanted to say something but Mason cleared his throat.

“Girls, be good, I’ll see the both of you on Monday. If you need anything from me just give me a call” Skyler spoke quickly.

“Sure sis, look I brought you some snacks, you can eat on your way” Edna passed a nylon to Skyler.

“Thanks” Skyler smiled and collected it.

“I didn’t get you anything but I will call you” Ivy said and Edna looked at her with a smug.

“We are getting late” Mason’s voice Interrupted the three of them and Ivy rushed to him immediately.

“So sorry to delay your trip bro, please take good care of Skyler, I love you” she tiptoed and pecked his cheeks.

Mason just rubbed it off with a frown before facing Skyler.

“Can we leave now, because I’ll appreciate it” he said with a blank look and without waiting for her reply, he began leaving.

Skyler shook her head and immediately followed behind.

“Don’t forget to give Grandpa a great grandchild!!” Edna shouted after them and Ivy glared at her.

“I was gonna say it first!”

“But you didn’t, loser” Edna smirked and walked inside.

Ivy clenched her fist tight before following behind.

BLAKE’S MANSION★

He was starting at the window while holding a glass of whiskey and drinking. Looking at the transparent glass, he could see the reflection of Ivy smiling face.

It was getting to him now, he didn’t just see her as a movie co star, he was into her and was only recognizing it since their shooting will end tomorrow.

They would be back to their separate ways and he would never see those sweet smile and innocent looks from her anymore.

He sighed and sipped more whisky from his glass. Some footsteps was suddenly heard from behind and he turned back to see a female figure dressed in a long stepped in.

He couldn’t see clearly because it was a bit dark.

“Who’s there?” He asked with his eyes narrowed.

The female figure took off the coat, she was putting on a sexy lingerie before catwalking towards him and stopping in front of him.

“I miss you, do you miss me?” She asked with a smirk forming on her lips.

Blake narrowed his eyes as he stared at her face.

“I.. Ivy?”

STARBUCKS STUDIO★

Ivy’s makeup artist were helping her with makeup in her van when someone knocked on the door.

“Daisy check who” Ivy said to Daisy who was sitting one place and pressing her phone.

“Okay” Daisy stood up and went to open the van.

She saw Blake checking his wrist watch. When he saw her, he let out a soft smile.

“Is Ivy in, can I come in to see her?” He asked.

“Give me a second” Daisy smiled and went back in then walked over to Ivy.

“Who was that?” Ivy asked.

“Blake” she replied and Ivy’s heart skipped a beat on hearing his name.

“What is he doing here?” Her voice sounded tiny when she asked.

“I don’t know, he wants to see you I guess. Should I let him in or do you want to go see him outside?” Daisy asked.

“Let him in” Ivy muttered and looked at her face in the mirror. The make up was quite okay so there was nothing wrong with her face now.

Blake stepped in, he didn’t know if he should smile or just nod at her but he just pressed his lips together.

“How are you feeling now? The interview clip has been taken down already so they rumor should reduce by now” he started talking.

“It has been taken down but people will still save it and talk about it” she mumbled without looking at his face.

Blake sighed and went to stand beside her.

“Look I’m sorry about Regina okay? I will make sure things like this don’t happen again” he apologized.

“It’s fine,I’m okay now” she smiled at him.

“Really?” He raised his two brows as he stared at her face.

“Yes!” Ivy stood up and faced him.

“I really am fine and besides tomorrow would be the last day of shooting, the last scene requires lots of episodes and I don’t think we wanna waste more time talking, we should be praticing so I’ll see you outside” she smiled at him.

Blake gave Ivy a look. Why does it feel she was trying to chase him away? He just sighed and nodded.

“You’re right, last scenes requires more work, I’ll see you in the studio” he smiled back at her before leaving.

After he left, Ivy sat back on the chair and covered her face with her palms. When she saw him earlier it began occuring to her that they encountered each other because of the movie they are shooting and the shooting will be ending tomorrow which means they would be back to their separate ways again.

Maybe then he can continue living a happy life with his girlfriend while she move on with work and maybe find herself a boyfriend in the future.

DELGADOS’ MANSION★

Carson just descended the stairs dressed in his uniform and a leather black jacket. His hairstyle was busy and he fixed some piercing on his nose and ears.

“Carson I’ve packed your.. oh my gosh!” Emily froze on her steps when she saw his look.

“What do you think you’re doing? Why are you putting on that jacket and who allowed you to pierce your nose and ears!” She looked angry as she scolded him.

“Mom don’t freak out, I’m just trying to go for a little change” Carson rolled his eyes.

“By looking like a nuisance? No sir please take off the piercing and jacket, it doesn’t go with your school uniform” Emily crossed her arms under her breast with a serious look on her face.

“Come on mom, Ryan does this and no one questions him” Carson frowned.

“Who’s Ryan?” Emily twitched her lips.

“My new rival, you see mom there’s this girl I’m into but I heard she’s into bad boys alone so I did this” he pointed his new look.

“And about the ear rings mom, it’s fake,I can remove them when ever I want” he took one of the ear ring off and fixed it back on.

“See?” He added after doing at.

“Carson..” Emily dragged his name.

“For real mom, I’m fine and I don’t need to take breakfast to school anymore. Give me a hundred dollars for lunch?” He stretched his hands out.

Emily sighed, she didn’t know whatelse to say to him, she just searched her pocket and gave the money to him.

“Thanks Mom, love you” he blew her kisses before running out of the house.

Emily only turned back to look at his retreating figure.

“He doesn’t know” she muttered to only her hearing.

••••

“Hey Ross, you’re off today, give me the keys and leave” Carson stretched his hands out to his driver.

Ross gave him the car key and walked away. Carson smiled then opened the car and entered.

“You think I can’t drive my own car? I will show you” he said to himself before starting the car.

“Okay I don’t know what to do” he muttered when the car began moving. He gripped on the steering wheel tight and nodded to himself.

“Just breath and drive and be Gracie’s type of guy” he tried motivating himself and managed to drive out of the mansion to the street.

Now he was in the road with other cars he began panicking and driving recklessly. The car began moving over to the direction of a big trash bin and his eyes widened.

“No! No! No! Not the trash bin, not the trash bin!!” He shouted and tried stopping the car but it kept going there.

“Nooooooo!!” He screamed as his car collided with the giant sized trash bin.

DELGADOS’ MANSION★

Skyler was busy on the dress when a knock sounded on the door.

“Who’s there? Anyways I’m coming” she stood up and went to get the door, it was Jacob.

“Jacob, hi” Skyler waved at him.

“Heard you’re leaving with Mason this evening so I wanted to use this little opportunity to talk to you, are you busy?” He asked.

“I was but I can make time, let’s go outside” Skyler stepped out of the room and closed the door.

They were both sitting on the couch, Jacob was looking at the floor and playing with his fingers before he started.

“You know I went to the hospital few days ago but I couldn’t do anything about my fears of blood” he muttered.

“So you freaked out again?” She looked at him and he nodded his head.

“Look, it’s not like I took your advice for granted, I really tried to follow it and believe in myself but I just couldn’t” he sighed and looked at her with his eyes getting red and misty.

“My dad was sick when he married my mom and each time they fight, my mom would always use his sickness to make fun of him and my dad didn’t like it. They argue almost everyday and they don’t even try to hide it from me. In school everyone ask me about them, my class mate also make fun of me because my father’s illness has no cure and I do see my father crying about it sometimes”

“I decided to become a doctor in the future to save lives and cure all type of illness because of my dad so when I was eleven, my mom came home from work one night, she went to her and Dad’s room and she screamed out. I also went there and I saw my father committed suicide by hanging himself on the ceiling fan, not enough, he still slashed his neck by himself. His blood was everywhere and I love my dad so much,I couldn’t get the image of my mind. Each time I see my blood I see my dad, I just can’t” he covered his face with his palms.

“If it’s so then how did you now studied and pass medicine?” Skyler wondered out.

“I was really good at the course but when it comes to that practical aspect, my mom always pay to fix the things I can’t do. That is why she calls me a disappointment all the time but I’m sick of it Skyler, I want to do something by myself!” He said to her.

“Jacob” Skyler moved closer to him and held his shoulders. “If you want something then you should go for it, you know, the only one holding yourself backwards is you, you didn’t take my advice to well, you should try to walk into that fear and actually see that there’s nothing there” she gently squeezed on his shoulders.

“But how?”

“Believe in yourself not what your mother or anyone else says about you” she replied.
