“What if I mess it up? She will know…that we're not in love..” Thea panicked as Daisy helped her into a beautiful short white dress.

It was elegant and perfectly suited her slender, yet subtly curvy, figure, hugging her body in all the right places.

“Take a deep breath! I'm sure she won't be asking uncomfortable questions.” Daisy offered, her heart racing as well.

She had no clue what was at stake but she was scared for her friend, worried that this might blow up in her face.

“Do you think she knows who I am? And what happened with my family?” Thea asked, biting her nails as she stared down at the tiles, shaking.

Daisy placed her hands on Thea's shoulders, holding her in place and forcing her to stare her in the eyes.

“It's alright! Take a deep breath! I'm sure Seth has something up his sleeves and he doesn't strike me as a man who would put you in an uncomfortable situation.”

Thea scoffed, her eyes glancing briefly at the double doors leading outside the change room; if only she kn

  • Revenge In Silk Sheets   The Sterling Fury

    The crystal goblet shattered against the marble wall, scattering fragments. Runes stood at the center of his father’s study, chest heaving, face red with fury. His eyes were bloodshot, his jaw clenched so tightly it seemed his teeth might crack under the strain.“How dare she?” he roared, slamming his fist onto the desk so hard that the lamp rattled. “How dare that witch stand there married to Seth Blackwood when she should have been mine?”He began pacing like a caged predator, pulling at his tie until it dangled uselessly around his neck. The veins in his temple pulsed with each step.“All of Zean was there! Everyone heard it! They were laughing! Laughing at me! At us!” His voice broke into a hoarse snarl. “That slut! That bloody slut! A Blackwood? How?!” “Runes.” Jay’s voice cut through the storm. He sat on the sofa, his eyes fixed on his troubled son. “You are making a fool of yourself.”“A fool?” Runes whirled on him, pointing at the floor as though the invisible crowd still st

  • Revenge In Silk Sheets   Posy Sterling

    Posy’s scream echoed through the grand hallway of the Runes estate, sharp enough to make the house staff flinch from wherever they were stationed. A vase crashed against the wall, shattering into a hundred glittering shards that scattered across the floor.Her room was already a wreck; perfume bottles overturned, a mirror cracked down the middle from where she had thrown a shoe at it, clothing ripped off hangers and tossed across the carpet. Her hair was in wild disarray, her face flushed crimson with rage.“How dare she!” Posy shrieked, her voice hoarse from screaming. “How dare she do this to me!”She hurled another object, a crystal lamp this time, across the room. It struck the corner of her vanity and toppled over, exploding into pieces.Her chest heaved with each ragged breath, her nails digging into her palms. She could still hear it in her head, the whispers, the reports flooding social media, the headlines screaming the same impossible, unbearable truth.Thea Balmero marrie

  • Revenge In Silk Sheets   The Blackwood Syndrome

    Thea grabbed the pillow on her bed and screamed into it, silencing her screams and shouts of nothing but embarrassment. She must be out of her mind. No, way too ballsy! She wasn't like this. She always played safe but when the incident that turned her world upside down happened, she knew she had to stand her ground or else she would be everyone's doormat. But not like this! Not to the owner of Mayqueen! Not to the largest Conglomerate in the world! What the hell was she thinking?! She pulled the pillow away, digging her fingers into her head, whining. She even threw wine in his face! She called him a bastard to his face! Cursed at him, swore at him! She even kissed him..made out with him…had sex with him…Thea almost broke down in tears, not out of pain but out of sheer embrassement! This man could buy her and her family business in two seconds!She scrambled out of bed and settled behind the desk in her room. The room was quiet, too quiet. The only sound was the low, steady hum o

  • Revenge In Silk Sheets   Aftereffect

    Thea sat pressed against the leather seat of the limousine, her breathing uneven, as though each inhale carried the weight of everything she had just witnessed. The gala, the whispers, the scandal of Seth claiming her as his wife…it was still unraveling in her head like a thread she couldn’t hold onto.But none of that compared to the revelation that had hit her hardest.Seth Blackwood wasn’t just the elusive billionaire whose name was whispered in high circles. He wasn’t just the mysterious man she had stumbled into that night when her world shattered. He wasn’t just the husband who appeared to protect her when everyone else wanted her destroyed.He was the owner of Mayqueen.Her lips parted slightly as she stared out of the tinted glass, watching Zean City’s lights streak by in long, blurred lines. She could see the reflections of cars passing, the towering skyscrapers lit up everywhere.Her mind screamed questions, but her tongue was frozen. She hugged herself, fingers digging into

  • Revenge In Silk Sheets   Mayqueen Gala #3

    The banquet carried on but the hall had not recovered from Seth’s revelation. Whispers still snaked between jeweled women and tuxedoed men, every voice carrying disbelief. Thea Balmero…no, Thea Blackwood…stood openly beside the most powerful man in the room. It was unthinkable, and yet undeniable.Runes stood stiff, his jaw locked so tightly a vein pulsed along his temple. His glass of champagne trembled in his hand, bubbles catching the light like sparks threatening to ignite. The orchestra began playing again, awkwardly, the notes too loud against the quiet of the crowd, but nothing could disguise the humiliation pressing against Runes.His reputation was almost ruined by the same woman who now stood at Seth’s side. And now the man he had hoped to impress, to ally with, had chosen her…married her without a word.The room moved on but Runes could not. His eyes went over to Thea still standing right next to Seth as he introduced her to a few of his business partners.Her smile remain

  • Revenge In Silk Sheets   Mayqueen Gala #2

    The air in the banquet hall was tight with anticipation, a fragile silence stretched thin across the hall.Seth Blackwood walked forward with unhurried precision, his presence commanding without effort. The crowd parted instinctively as though the floor itself bent to accommodate his path. His gaze never left Thea, who stood flanked by two guards, poised but vulnerable.“Release her,” Seth said, his voice measured yet final.The two guards froze, torn between the order they had received from Runes and the authority now standing before them. It was Seth Blackwood, the CEO of Blackwood Empire and Mayqueen industries, one of the most powerful men not only in the country but in the world. His words were not a request but law.Immediately, the guards stepped back. One of them muttered an apology to Thea before retreating.Thea exhaled quietly, though her chest was tight. Relief and dread tangled within her as Seth got closer.Seth moved closer. His eyes swept over her face, her shoulders,
