INICIAR SESIÓNMy name is Nova Coldwell. There are three things you should know about me: 1. I’m my father’s biggest disappointment. 2. His best friend watches me at night. 3. He has no idea I’m the girl behind the screen. I’m a college student by day. A cam girl by night. And completely off-limits to the only man who sees me. He calls me VelvetMistress. I call him Daddy’s dirty secret. But what happens when masks fall… …and the lies we told start to hurt?
Ver másI was already standing when he started.Not sitting. Not invited to sit.Standing in front of his desk like I was being judged.My father sat back in his chair, calm in a way that made my skin itch. His phone lay on the desk between us, screen facing up. I did not have to look closely to know what was on it. I had watched that video enough times already.“Nova Coldwell.”My full name.He only used it when he was angry.I lifted my chin. “Yes.”He picked up the phone and tapped the screen once. The video played. Me leaving the restaurant. The captions. The fake voice. The mocking tone. He let it run for a few seconds before stopping it again.“This has been making rounds,” he said.I crossed my arms. “I did not post it.”“That is not the point.”I felt something tighten in my chest. “Then what is the point?”He leaned forward slightly. “People have seen it.”My stomach dropped. “People?”“My professional circle,” he said. “Colleagues. Partners. Individuals whose opinions matter.”I lau
POV: RomanI leaned back against the headboard, one hand holding a glass of whiskey, the other resting on the laptop balanced on my lap. The screen glowed in the dim room, showing Velvet Mistress in the middle of one of her lives. It was a recording from earlier in the day, but I didn’t care.I had been dealing with nonsense all day. I was trying to find someone to head a project I’ve been building for months, but it felt like trying to dig gold out of a landfill. On paper, the candidates looked perfect. Impressive resumes. Polished smiles. Fancy degrees. But I always dig deeper. And once I did, every single one of them came apart like cheap fabric.One guy had been quietly involved in a corporate espionage scandal over a fifteen-thousand-dollar pen. A pen. Another woman ran a so-called “motivational retreat” that somehow ended with multiple lawsuits about goat therapy. And the last candidate of the day seemed like a normal, respectable man until I found his private blog claiming billi
NovaI was on the floor again. Not crying or anything. Just sitting there with my back against the wall, legs stretched out, and my textbook open but untouched beside me. I was supposed to be reading for my test next week, but of course, I wasn’t. I had my phone in my hand, eyes staring at the message Maya had just sent. No words. Just a video and that one wide-eye emoji.I already knew it was going to be nonsense.I pressed play.The video opened with a shaky, zoomed-in clip of me leaving my shift at the restaurant last night. It was dark, so the video wasn’t even clear. You could barely see my face, but my hair and bag gave me away. Someone had recorded me through the window like a little creep. Right across the screen in bold white letters was the caption:“Miss campus queen by day, waitress by night???”I blinked. The video cut to another clip. This time, it was daytime. I was walking across campus wearing one of my favorite oversized hoodies and slides. Nothing fancy, just comfy.
Nova’s PovBy the time I got home, my feet were aching and my head was buzzing. The moment I stepped through the door, I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding and dropped my bag right on the floor. No energy to carry it to my room. I was already peeling off my jacket before I even reached the bathroom.The shower was calling my name. I let the water run for a few seconds, waited until it was hot, then stepped under. The warmth hit my skin and instantly relaxed me. I tilted my head back and closed my eyes, letting the water wash away the day. School had been long. Roman’s messages had kept me on edge, and even though we didn’t say much, I kept replaying everything in my head like a movie. I didn’t know what he wanted. I didn’t even know what I wanted. But he was in my thoughts and it annoyed me that he was.After I dried off, I went to my closet. It was time for Velvet Mistress I picked out one of my favorite bodysuits. It hugged my curves just right. Then I sat in front of my
RomanThe car pulled up in front of the hotel just as the sun slipped beneath the skyline. Tall marble columns framed the entrance and warm golden light spilled out from the wide glass doors. The valet opened my door and I stepped out, smoothing my suit jacket as I looked up at the building. Elegan
Nova’s PovI walked back inside with Jace, my hand on his arm. I was laughing at something he said, probably a joke about one of the guests. It felt good to laugh, especially here, surrounded by people I didn’t care about. For a moment, I almost felt like I belonged. Almost.Jace was talking about
Roman's pov The alarm buzzed before the sun even finished rising. I reached for my phone and turned it off with a quick swipe, groaning as I sat up. The room was quiet. Cold, almost. The kind of cold that reminded you you were alone. I sat there for a minute, elbows on my knees, hands raking throu
NovaThe music inside the ballroom was low and fancy like something from a period drama. Laughter floated in the air like perfume and the clinking of champagne glasses made it feel like everyone was celebrating something more important than a birthday.
