CHAPTER TEN

Meagan's POV

I thanked God that Jane was able to find someone to act as a decoy for me to get through the crowd of reporters. As we exited the limo, Jane and the other woman who was going to cover for me as "Megan" walked out first.

The woman had on an oversized jersey and baseball cap to obscure her face. She slouched her shoulders and looked fairly athletic, so she could pass for me from a distance. The reporters immediately swarmed her.

"Megan! Over here!" They shouted, cameras flashing.

I stayed in the limo a moment longer, pulling my cap down lower. When the reporters were focused on the decoy, I was able to slip out and through the doors unnoticed.

As I moved through the entrance, I passed by a guy in a suit and glasses who clearly didn't look like a reporter either.

He was tall and skinny, with disheveled hair. Our eyes met briefly as I helped steady him when a photographer shoved into him.

"Easy there," I muttered, grabbing his arm to stop him from falling over. He

    CHAPTER THIRTY -CHRIS POINT OF VIEWMy heart hardens but I tried all my best to hide it.I'm selfish! She is for her future and the best for her.My brows hiked upwards as I regarded her with open curiosity, noticing the familiar nervous habit of her teeth worrying at her plush lower lip."The conservatory programs?" I repeated, digesting this tidbit with no small measure of pride. "Babe, that's incredible! You know how insanely competitive that admittance process is – you should be walking on air right now!"Hailey's face blossomed into a radiant smile at my enthusiastic response, only for the expression to falter slightly a heartbeat later."The only... the only snag is... well, shit – it's in LA, Chris." She winced, averting her gaze as if bracing herself for an outburst or disappointment to cloud my features. "If I take it, we'd have to do the long-distance thing for at least a year while you finish up your senior courses. And you know how demanding and intensive that program is,

    CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE -CHRIS POINT OF VIEW"Animal in the sack..." The mocking words replayed in a malicious loop as I paced the cramped confines of my studio apartment, the discarded groceries forgotten on the sagging futon.I paused, running my hands through disheveled locks as I wheeled towards the laptop again."Okay, Chris... deep breaths," I murmured, flexing my fingers to dispel the lingering sting from when I'd pounded the wall."Time to learn more about this Miles asshole and what horrors he inflicted on Megan."The search engine was already loaded, so I simply punched out the name, the web exploding with an avalanche of results.My eyes boggled at the sheer volume - movie premieres, charity galas, People Mag covers – all glossily depicting the same chiseled, generically handsome face with an oily smile plastered on."Holy shit..." I swallowed hard against the lump of indignant revulsion creeping up my throat. "This Miles character is like... the quintessential douche-bro cele

    CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT -CHRIS POINT OF VIEWI stormed down the cracked sidewalk, Jake's car peeling away behind me. "A woman boxer?" I spun on my heel; jaw clenched. "Why didn't you just say that, Jake?"He leaned out the window with that insufferable smirk. "Where's the fun in that, writer boy?" He mimicked Megan making my cheek blush."This isn't a game!" I snapped. "You made me look like an idiot in there."Jake's smile only widened. "Relax, she ate it up. Megan loves throwing people off-balance." He winked. "Consider it an initiation." He smirked. "She loved you!" He winked.The car roared off before I could protest further. I growled under my breath, fists balling as I watched his taillights disappear around the corner. "Some friend you are..."....I slammed the apartment door, tossing my jacket onto the crooked coat rack. "A woman boxer..." I shook my head, dropping onto the sagging futon with a huff.Interesting.Running a hand through my disheveled hair, I booted up the old l

    CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN -MEGAN POINT OF VIEW"Okay just an hour!" I slide the phone back in my pocket.Inhaling the cool morning air, it felt refreshing after the frustration I had been feeling.And with every step I take, I could feel the tension leaving my muscles.I turned the corner onto the riverside trail, enjoying the peace and quiet of the almost empty path so early.Up ahead, I saw a familiar figure stretching on one of the creaky benches overlooking the water.Josh looked up as I got closer, grinning from under his worn baseball cap."Well, well, if it isn't the famous Megan Williams herself!" he said teasingly as he stood up straight. "What brings you out here?"I rolled my eyes good-naturedly, grateful for his irreverent ability to instantly defuse any lingering tension.Josh had been my closest friend for as long as I could remember - the one steady, stabilizing force who never wavered or faltered, no matter how chaotic the currents of life got."Can it, you jackass," I sho

    CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX -MEGAN POINT OF VIEW"Rise and shine, kiddo."Jane's rough voice broke through the phone, shattering my peaceful sleep.I squeezed my eyes shut tighter, trying to hold onto the last bit of blissful rest for a few more moments."Don't you dare hit that snooze button," she grumbled, like she could read my mind."Trust me, you'll want to prepare yourself before turning on the TV." She warned."What's now?" With an annoyed groan.I opened one heavy eyelid and squinted at the bright red numbers on the alarm clock.5:13 AM.For Goddamn Sake!Only Jane would consider this ungodly hour an acceptable time to start psychologically tormenting me."Just get your leathery old ass over here and spit it out," I grumbled, shoving upright and scrubbing my hands over my face. "Unless the building's on fire, nothing could possibly be disastrous enough to merit this level of sadism."An ominous pause stretched between us, dense with unspoken weight.When she finally responded, her ton

    CHPTER TWENTY-FIVE -MEGAN POINT OF VIEWPresent"Well, that's my cue," I said to Chris with a lopsided grin as Jane stuck her head in the doorway."You coming or what? We have much to do today!" she barked leaving me behind.I rolled my eyes good-naturedly. "Yes, mother. Give me a sec." Turning back to Chris, I clapped him on the shoulder. "Stay out of trouble while I'm gone, writer boy. I expect you bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for our next session."A faint blush crept up his neck, but he met my gaze steadily. "I'll do my best to contain my wild ways until you return," he deadpanned.I chuckled low in my throat. "That's what I like to hear." With wink, I walked away following a muttering Jane."Ah! Finally, there you are!" A voice made me stopped!"I looked all over for you," she added with smile."Miss Williams! It's an honor." She leapt to her feet, practically vibrating with excited energy. "I'm Lilly Carson, your new assistant."My eyebrows hiked upwards as I took in her petite
