Coraline

“What?”

Out of every direction my mind had wandered towards to come up with what his reason could be, it had certainly not landed there.

My brain was definitely struggling to make sense of what he meant.

“Are you confused? It was a simple request.”

He was still sitting and I was still standing, with only a handful of inches of space between our bodies.

“Request?” I scoffed, looking down at him. “If it was a request then it would have been posed as a question.”

“Fine. A demand. But the

    Coraline“My exact reaction, girl.” David said from where he was standing by my bookshelf. “I thought you’d be drugged or worse. Now you understand our urgent concern.”“I couldn’t think of anyone else to call except Alessio because I couldn’t reach you, so I did.” Hannah continued. “And he was the one who assured us that you were okay. But we still had to confirm it in person. So here we are.”“House of Gwen?” I asked to be very sure.“Yep.”My mind whirled as my brain began trying to connect the dots.Hannah had been drugged and made to look like she had cheated on Elias because he was a wealthy businessman and they wanted to get him single again so he could be available to them. Then there was me, who Georgina must have thought was dating Alessio.So she conspired with Gwendolyn to bring me down there and probably do the same thing also. Except I wasn’t dating Alessio, and they hadn’t done anything but be insulting and threatening.Actually, it was just Georgina who had been. And t

    CoralineTime seemed to stand still for a moment before the realization sank into my subconscious.I had hit him.For no justifiable reason. Only because I had needed an outlet for the frustration bubbling within me.My palm stung as the sounds around me slowly filtered back into my awareness and I registered the imprint of my hand blooming across Alessio’s cheek.Oh my God. What had I done?He turned his head slowly and his gaze met mine. His icy blues were dark and tumultuous, causing me to take an uncertain step backwards.“I… I didn’t—”“Benny.” His voice came out rough and barely contained.“Yes sir?”“Take Coraline back to her apartment.”Benny nodded, and because I was a little scared to face the consequence of my actions, I offered no argument and instead scrambled after him when he began walking back the way he came, leaving Alessio and his obvious anger behind.The SUV was parked a short distance away. I climbed in and Benny immediately began driving, the atmosphere tense an

    CoralineMy eyes widened and confusion swirled in my gut as Georgina stood before me.What the hell was she doing here? Was she one of the models?She didn’t look glittered up and wasn’t in tall heels like the women had been. So her presence remained a mystery.“What do you want?” I asked her, trying my best to keep the shock out of my expression as I took in her appearance.She looked really different from the last time I had seen her. Her hair hung limp, her skin had a yellow tint, and her clothes weren’t the stylish ones she usually walked around in before. Just a baggy sweatshirt and regular jeans.I wondered what happened to her to cause such a drastic change in her appearance.“You’re really one headstrong bitch, aren’t you?” she spat, stepping closer and cornering me into my chair. “I told you to stay away from Alessio but you just had to go ahead and do the opposite.”“I…” What the fuck was going on?I looked behind me to see Gwen was on her feet, staring between the both of u

    AlessioI drove my fist forward and struck hard flesh.Peter grunted from the impact and I should have felt the usual surge of satisfaction at breaking through his solid defense, but nothing could penetrate the heavy haze of frustration currently clouding my mind.“Time out!” he called, planting his hands on his hips and breathing hard as he watched me tear off my gloves with my teeth.“Fucking hell, Castelli. Have you mistaken me for one of the punching bags in here or something?” he asked in a raspy voice. “It’s like you have personal beef with me this evening. Swear to God, I’m starting to regret ever agreeing to be your personal trainer.”“Tough luck then because you’re stuck with me.” I said before twisting off the cap of my bottle and chugging down several large gulps.“It’s women's problems again, isn’t it?”I lowered the bottle and glared up at him.“Ah.” He pointed a finger in my face and shook it. “That expression right there tells me I’m right. I’m going to take another wil

    Coraline“We’re here ma’am.”I raised my head and looked through the window of my Uber. We had stopped in front of a glitzy, five-star hotel.I had expected an abandoned warehouse in the middle of nowhere or a dark suspicious building with security at the door, but I guessed I had nothing to worry about on that end.That counted as a good sign at least.Handing the driver his pay and climbing out of the car, I stopped in front of the hotel and inhaled a rush of air for confidence before stepping through the revolving glass doors.Lights glittered off polished surfaces as I walked past the luxurious lobby and headed straight for the elevators. I stood out in a simple shirt and jeans so I didn’t want to draw more attention to myself by looking around and trying to properly take in my surroundings.Once inside, I hit the button for the basement level since that was what was stated on the address. Then I waited anxiously to the side until the elevator dinged and its doors smoothly slid op

    CoralineIt was 5pm and I was making dinner in the kitchen when I heard the front door open.“Cora?” Ash called out.“In here.” I answered, glancing behind me when she appeared in the doorway.“I got an email about the role.”I immediately dropped the carrots I was chopping and turned to her with an expectant look. “And?”Her face was a neutral mask before a slow smile began growing on her lips. “I got it. The lead role.”“Oh my God!” I launched myself at her and she stumbled back a few steps under the force of my hug.She hugged me back just as fiercely and we stayed like that for a few moments, simply soaking up the joy this news had brought on us.When I pulled back, she was smiling but there was something off about it.“Let’s sit down for a bit, yeah?” She led me to the couch before I could answer and pulled me down beside her before taking a deep breath.“The contract was attached to the mail so I already know the shooting dates, exclusivity clauses and all of that.
