로그인Nancy’s POVAfter the shoot wrapped, I went back to the dressing room to change, peeling off the heavy silk and wiping away the layers of professional makeup. I pulled on my favorite pair of faded, tight jeans and a simple white tank top, twisting my hair up into a messy bun. It was a relief to feel the cotton against my skin again, to feel like Nancy again, even if the glow of the shoot was still humming in my veins.I had already said my goodbyes to everyone.I grabbed my bag and headed out to the parking lot, the evening air cool and crisp. I was on my phone about to call for an Uber when I heard Colton’s voice. He had offered to drive me home, but after all the tension between us during the day, the way he looked at me in that dressing room, I suddenly didn’t want to be in the same space with him for the rest of the night."Nancy! Wait!" He called out, his face lit up with a grin. "I just wanted to make sure you got out okay. And to say it again, you were incredible today. A natur
Nancy’s POVThe silk of the silver gown felt like liquid against my skin. It hugged my body perfectly, accentuating my curves but it wasn’t too tight that it made me feel uncomfortable. The dress was perfect really. Colton had hired professional hair dressers and make up artists to get me ready for the shoot.My hair was the softest it had ever been as it flowed in long waves right down to my waist and the make up u had on was so light that it barely made any difference to how I looked. I felt confident and shy at the same time. I wasn’t used to getting all dressed up like this.All I could think about was how much I hated being watched."Nancy?" Colton’s voice was muffled, but I could hear the cautious edge to it. "The photographers are set up and the lighting is perfect. Is it... Is it okay if I come in for a second?"I took a deep breath, clutching the silk of my skirt. "Yes. Come in."The door creaked open slowly. Colton stepped inside, his eyes initially focused on a clipboard in
Colton’s POVShe was in my head, a constant, flickering flame that refused to be extinguished. Nancy occupied every corner of my thoughts, and no matter how hard I tried to maintain a mask of composure in her presence, I felt myself fraying at the edges. I was reaching a breaking point, a state where I might actually burst from the sheer volume of yearning I’d kept locked behind my ribs.Nancy had a way about her. She shifted the atmosphere the second she walked into a room. She drew me in and caught me off guard, and now I was certain there wasn't a single thing I wouldn’t do for her. If she asked me to crawl, I would obey with a terrifying sense of gratitude.For some reason, a heavy shroud of guilt followed me, guilt for everything that had happened to her. I may not have had a hand in Catherine’s schemes, but she was still my twin sister. That blood tie alone made me feel like an accomplice. I felt like I should have seen the darkness coming towards Nancy and I should have been th
Nancy’s POV“So, I am thinking a photoshoot.” Colton said as he placed a bowl of exotic fruits in front of my mother before taking a seat next to me. He gave her a kind smile that my mother returned with a simple nod.My mother was watching him with a skeptical look on her face. She hadn’t gotten around to accepting that Colton and I were friends yet. She didn’t trust him. All she knew was that Colton was Catherine’s brother and Catherine took my son away from me. She thought Colton was working with Catherine, that he was only being nice to me so he could get enough information to help his sister ruin my life.I understood why she was paranoid, but I had grown to trust Colton, and my mother trusted me, so she was being as welcoming as she could be.I was happy that at least she had gotten out of bed to join us. She didn’t know it but all the meals she had been eating for the past few days were made by Colton. She was slowly getting her strength back, and that was all that mattered.“A
Nancy’s POVIt was Saturday. I hugged him. I hugged him like my life depended on it. My life felt empty without Liam by my side and I still couldn’t believe how much things had changed in such a short time. I used to live with my son, I used to spend all my time with him, nurturing him, teaching him to be a good person, loving him. And now all that was taken away from me. Due to the rules of the child protection services, Andrew couldn’t drop Liam off at my place. Liam couldn’t even spend the night with me anymore because Catherine, the woman Andrew had blindly chosen an alliance with decided to file a report against me.I could only see Liam now either at Andrew’s home or in a place of Andrew’s choosing. I felt like I was going to lose my mind because the last place I wanted to be was in Andrew’s home, but I needed to make sure that Liam’s living conditions were good, that he had everything he needed. That was being treated like he deserved. Colton had helped me get a new job. App
Catherine’s POV“If there was even a slight chance of Andrew ever being interested in you, then you just ruined it. You know that right?” Andrew’s mother said as she sat with her legs crossed on my couch. The woman annoyed me but unfortunately, we had to work together because we knew each other’s secrets.She had ordered the hit and run on Liam and I had hired the man responsible for Adrian’s death. If any of these secrets were to be exposed then we would be ruined for life. I would lose everything I had worked hard for my entire life. It was out of the question that anyone found out about these things. I wouldn’t allow it.“You don’t understand, I had to do something. He was basically living with her already. I couldn’t take it anymore. I had to tear them apart. Right now, Nancy really hates him. All we have to do now is find a way to make Andrew reciprocate that hate.”Andrew’s mother scoffed. “You’re wasting your time. You’ll never be able to make Nancy look evil in Andrew’s eyes.
Andrew’s POVNancy screamed but her sounds were muffled my palm covering her mouth. I didn’t blame her for being scared. I looked scary in the disguise I had on. I was in all black from head to toe and I had a face mask and dark glasses on. I wore a tight black t-shirt with a hoodie covering my hai
Nancy’s POVMy face was everywhere on the internet. I had expected it. It was one of the reasons I didn’t want anything to do with Andrew King. And it wasn’t only my face. It was my brother’s face, my mother’s face. Liam’s face. I could have taken all the heat if it were only me people were talking
Nancy’s POVA week had passed. Liam’s operation was successful and he could even walk now. He was still in pain but he was healing really fast. All thanks to the blood Andrew had donated. It was a minor operation and most of the complications came from the fact that he was bleeding internally. If
Nancy’s POVI was pacing back and forth, trying to keep it together. Trying not to let myself crumble in front of Andrew. I didn’t know why I felt this way. For four years I had been strong. I hadn’t shed a single tear for years but after Liam’s accident I have felt like the universe was against me.
