Beautiful But Unlucky Echoes of the past
POV: Silvia It’s funny how full-circle moments come without fireworks.They don’t announce themselves. No dramatic music. No slow-motion montage of your transformation. Just you, standing backstage with slightly trembling hands, wondering how the hell you got here without falling apart.The luxury convention center smelled like citrus, lavender, and nerves. I was scheduled to speak at 2:15 PM on Panel B: Women in Power: Beauty and Business. I’d laughed when the invite first arrived, half-convinced it was a prank or an elaborate setup to put me in a room with the same women who once whispered behind my back.But it was real.The badge around my neck said so.Silvia Moretti – Founder, Model, Advocate.Three words. A whole damn journey.I adjusted the mic clipped to my lapel and looked down at my cue cards. They were shaking slightly in my hand. Not enough to panic - but enough to remind me I still cared. That I wasn’t
Beautiful But Unlucky Wedding preparations
POV: Calvin The wedding invitations came in gold-trimmed boxes.Not envelopes - boxes.Silk-lined, sealed with the Handall crest like royalty was getting married and not just my younger brother to a woman who made PR teams cry tears of joy with her perfection.I opened mine with one hand while eating leftover Thai noodles with the other, sitting at my desk in a Deva hoodie and three-day-old stubble.Inside: white-gold lettering, elegant script, RSVP codes printed on embossed cardstock.God, it was extra.I stared at it for a long second and let out a soft, sarcastic laugh.“Can’t tell if it’s a wedding or the second coming of Jesus,” I muttered.Thomas, sitting on the edge of my desk, glanced over. “You going?”“Wouldn’t miss it,” I said, setting the box aside. “Watching my brother marry a billionaire’s daughter while Damon pretends his empire isn’t bleeding out? Front row? Sounds like therapy.”He grinned. “You think Anniele knows?”“That she’s part of a branding exercise or that Ju
Beautiful But Unlucky Calvin and Silvia Reunited
POV: Silvia – We didn’t tell anyone where we were going.No PR team. No Mariam in heels asking what I was wearing. No Eliza raising a brow with her quiet little smirk. No Sentinel guards trailing us like polite shadows.Just me and Calvin.And quiet.The good kind.The kind that feels like air after a thunderstorm.He picked me up in an old car I swear I’d seen parked under the Deva garage months ago, half-covered in dust and completely out of place among the sleek black SUVs. It was a navy-blue vintage BMW, with a stubborn passenger window and a radio that only played jazz on three stations.I loved it immediately.“You’re seriously driving this?” I asked, sliding into the passenger seat with a little laugh.He grinned. “You said no suits. No drama.”“This looks like it might explode at a red light.”“Romance,” he said, turning the key. “With a side of nostalgia and possible combustion.”---We ended up walking along the Hudson.It was late afternoon - one of those slow golden hours
Beautiful But Unlucky Home Again
POV: Silvia The car was too quiet for two people who had just escaped the emotional equivalent of a fortress.Eliza leaned her head against the window, sunglasses still on even though it was dusk and the sun had dipped behind the skyline hours ago. I sat next to her, fingers laced in my lap, knees pressed together like I was bracing for turbulence.I don’t know what I expected the drive to feel like - maybe freedom, maybe joy.Instead, it just felt... still.Torreto had said goodbye like he said everything - calm, distant, direct. No hug. No lingering glance. Just:“You’re Moretti women. Don’t forget that.”As if it was both a blessing and a threat.But when the car pulled away from the estate, I saw him.Up on the balcony.Standing alone, hands behind his back, coat catching the breeze.Watching.He didn’t wave. He didn’t smile.But his eyes followed us until we dis
Beautiful But Unlucky Torreto Relents
POV: Calvin Silence stretched longer than I thought humanly possible.The kind of silence that didn’t just sit in a room - it pressed down on you. Heavy. Measured. Like Torreto was giving the air itself permission to breathe again.I stayed where I was.Still kneeling. My knees ached. My suit was wrinkled. My throat felt raw.But I didn’t move..I kept my gaze steady on his polished desk, his still hands, the unreadable look in his eyes.Finally, he spoke.“Stand.”The word cut through the air like a thread snapping.It wasn’t loud. Wasn’t barked. Just low. Sharp. Final.I stood.Slowly. Carefully.My joints protested, and every inch of my body screamed for rest, but I stood anyway. Shoulders square. Heart pounding.Torreto walked around the desk. Each step sounded like a decision being made.“You have my daughter’s heart,” he said.I swallowed.“That should terrify me,” he continued. “But what terrified me more is knowing she chose someone I didn’t respect.”He stopped in front of m
Beautiful But Unlucky Final Strike
POV: Calvin – Past TenseKai Deveraux smiled like the world still belonged to him.Which was funny. In a tragic, slow-burn-explosion sort of way.I watched him from across the street. Through my laptop in a rented flat that smelled like takeout and bad decisions. The penthouse across from us shimmered like it was in a cologne commercial - glass walls, polished marble floors, city lights pouring in like applause. Inside, men shook hands with smiles that meant nothing. Waiters moved like trained shadows. Champagne sparkled.Fake peace.Thomas sat beside me, laptop balanced on his knee, headphones in, monitoring every mic and camera feed we planted.“They’re cocky,” he muttered.“They always are,” I said.I leaned forward, elbows on my knees, watching Kai lean in to whisper something to one of his contacts. There was a woman in heels beside him - Anielle’s cousin, I think - laughing too hard at something that defin
