“CUT!”

The word ripped out of my throat before I could stop it.

The entire set froze instantly.

Every single person went still.

The cameras stopped rolling.

The sound crew lowered their equipment.

Even the giant overhead lights suddenly felt painfully bright against my skin.

For one horrifying second, nobody moved.

Then chaos erupted.

Thomas rushed toward me immediately, his face full of frustration.

  • Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret   DAMSEL IN DISTRESS

    Laura's POVWhen Quinn said he was increasing my security, I hadn't expected him to literally double it.Four armed men.Four massive men who looked like they could break concrete with their bare hands.And they were instructed to escort and follow me everywhere I went, they only retired when I went to sleep and even then they lined themselves at the entrance of my door.And now...The movie set. I felt nervous that I was starting work again after the kidnap but I had to be professional, I had slowed the production of this movie too much anyway.I climbed out of the SUV and immediately felt dozens of eyes turn toward me.Wonderful.Exactly how I wanted to start my morning.Like a circus attraction.The security detail stepped out after me.Two in front.Two behind.A moving wall of muscle.I sighed."Do you really all have to walk this close?"One of them, a square-jawed guy named Collins, nodded."Mr. Cardiff's orders."Of course.I adjusted my bag and headed toward the studio.The w

  • Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret   PEOPLE WHO WANT TO HURT ME

    Laura's POVI was safe.That was the first thought that entered my mind.I was actually safe.But my body didn't seem to understand that yet.My hands were still shaking.My breathing was still uneven.Every small sound made me tense.Every movement made me think I was back in that room.Back tied to that chair.Back wondering if anyone was ever going to find me.It was becoming a pattern.A horrible, terrifying pattern.Why was I always the one caught in situations like this?Why did danger keep finding me?First Hemsworth.Then the threats.Then the attack.Then this.It was like my life had turned into one never-ending nightmare.I was tired.So unbelievably tired.Quinn held me firmly as we drove back to the mansion.Not in the way he usually held me.Not like he was trying to remind me of the agreement.Not like I was some responsibility he had to manage.Just... firmly.Like he was making sure I was really there.That I wasn't going anywhere.Ryker drove silently, his eyes focus

  • Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret   PURE INSTINCT

    Quinn's POVI was losing my mind.That was the only explanation.Because the more I thought about it, the more the guilt started eating away at me.We were so close.So damn close.And yet somehow, we were still behind.Maybe if we hadn't stopped at the station.Maybe if I hadn't wasted time standing in front of Hemsworth, letting my anger get the better of me.Maybe if I had just listened to Devon and driven straight here the moment we got the lead.Maybe Laura would already be safe.Maybe she would be sitting beside me right now.The thought made my hands tighten around the steering wheel.I was always prepared.Always thinking ten steps ahead.That was how I survived.That was how I built everything I had.I calculated every possibility.Every risk.Every outcome.So how did I miss this?How did I fail to protect her?"Mr. Cardiff."Thomas's voice cut through my thoughts.I glanced at him through the mirror.He looked tense.Focused."Stop the car."My eyebrows pulled together "Wha

    Laura's POVIt didn't take long.The moment the call ended, everything moved quickly.Too quickly.Before I could even process the fact that I had actually spoken to Quinn, they were alreadydragging me out.Back into the cold night air into another vehicle.The sky was completely dark.No way for me to tell the time.But judging from how quiet everything was, I assumed it was still the early hours of themorning.The kind of hour where the entire world was asleep.Except me.Except the people who had taken me.They forced me into the car and shut the door behind me.The sound made my heart drop.Again.The engine started immediately.The tires screeched against the road.And then we were moving.Fast.I sat there, my hands shaking.My mind kept replaying the call.Had Quinn understood?Had he heard what I was actually trying to say?Or had I failed?I couldn't tell him where I was.Barry made sure of that.Every single word I said had been controlled.Care
