AYRA

I stood in front of my closet, staring back at the dress I'd picked out. It was elegant but sophisticated, with a neckline that dipped down a bit on my cleavage. It showed without being too obvious and had a slit that revealed enough leg to be interesting.

I thought of the way he would look at me when he saw me in it, the heat in his eyes and the promises of things he would do, and I blushed.

My phone buzzed, snapping me back to reality. It was a text from Liam. "Car is downstairs. Take your time, Cupcake. I'm not going anywhere."

I smiled as I took one last peek in the mirror, satisfied with my makeup and outfit. My hair was styled in simply curls, and my makeup was a bit heavy around the eyes but soft glam all through. The dress complemented it, balanced it out. I looked powerful and sexy, just like Liam had suggested, and I looked powerful but felt a tad bit nervous.

I smile as I thought about what tonight would bring and what he'd implied.

I'm not like Brielle with all her w

  • The Comeback of a Star   56. A lesson on Control

    AYRAMy stomach flipped as I grew anxious about what was about to happen."Yes." My voice came out more like a squeak than a reply."Good girl," he said. The praise felt warm, sending shivers down my spine. "Now I'm going to ask you some questions and I want honest answers. Can you do that?"I nodded."Use your words, Cupcake. You're going to need your words tonight.""Yes, I can do that.""Have you ever let someone tie you up before?"My eyes widened slightly. "No.""Have you ever been blindfolded during sex?""No.""Have you ever let someone have complete control over when you come?""Yes, and that was you."His smile was proud and tender at once. "That's good. Tonight is going to be full of firsts, but only if you trust me. Do you trust me, Ayra?"I looked into his honey-brown eyes and saw nothing but desire mixed with genuine care. "Yes, I trust you.""We'll be putting that to the test," he said, and he loosened his tie. I looked at him, curious, wondering what was about to happen

  • The Comeback of a Star   54. Scarlett

    LIAMI smiled as I remembered Ayra's confession about her feelings for me and her desire for us to be together exclusively. Finally, she was mine, officially exclusive without hesitation or doubts. The wait had been worth it, but now that she was committed, I planned to make sure she never regretted choosing me.I picked up my phone to make a call to Matteo's. It's a private and exclusive dining establishment that doesn't advertise or take walk-ins. You have to know someone who knows someone, and even then, you must be vetted before being given access.But my good friend Matteo had already had everything fixed and planned for me. Before I came back, he wanted me to have a good time. And that was where I was meeting him the night I went to the nightclub where I met Ayra for the first time, which led to us being here today.I'm forever grateful to Matteo for that invitation. It was crazy how she thought I was working there. A server had initially spilled my drink that night and was so

  • The Comeback of a Star   53. Good, Sexy, and Powerful

    AYRA"Yes, no pressure. If you don't want to meet her, it's fine. Just keeping you in the loop. Don't worry, she isn't as tough as she looks or sounds. She's always concerned, and you two have a lot in common." He smiled."We do?""You're both nosy." He laughed as I swatted his hands away.I was still nervous about the whole thing, but his comment put me at ease. I guess that would be a bridge I'd cross when it arrived.We pulled up to my apartment building, and before I got out, Liam pulled me in for one more kiss. "Tonight, seven o'clock. Wear something that makes you feel good, sexy, and powerful." He smiled."Good, sexy, and powerful. Got it," I smiled."And Cupcake, text me throughout the day. I want to know how filming goes. I want to know when you get the news.""What news?""You'll see." He kissed me again.********I arrived at the set with Raven and felt like I was on top of the world. Everything with Liam felt more settled now. We were defined, and it felt as real as any r

  • The Comeback of a Star   52. How Did I Get So Lucky?

    AYRA"You don't have to say a thing. I've just been exploring possibilities. Nothing is set in stone. Nothing happens unless you want it to. However, I wanted to have real opportunities ready to present to you, rather than just vague ideas. I wanted everything to be perfect, if you want it, of course. This isn't me forcing it on you. I just felt like this is something you could go into and thrive. You are a brand, Ayra. I don't know if you know that yet. And I'm not that dumb to bet on something I know wouldn't win. I always win, so I always bet on winners. And you, Ayra, are a winner."Unshed tears pooled in my eyes at his confidence in me and what I stood for. The words were stuck in my throat as I couldn't find the right ones to speak.How did I get so lucky?Where had he been all my life?"Why are you so nice to me?" was all I could manage. "Why do all this for me?""Because you're talented, because you deserve options, because..." He stood up as both hands found their way to my

  • The Comeback of a Star   51. Waking Up to Face the Music

    AYRAI woke up to soft sheets and an expensive, familiar cologne that made my stomach flutter. The room was dark, so I rose slowly from the bed to avoid hurting myself.I made my way out of bed and padded softly across the floor. I could hear sounds coming from somewhere in the house. Was that music? And the sounds of pots clanging. I ran my hands through my messy hair as the events of last night came flooding back to me in vivid detail.The sex toy shopping. The drunk phone calls. Liam picking me up. And the vibrator buzzing out of nowhere before I threw it in shock.Oh my God, I groaned, covering my face with my palms. I can't believe I did that. I tried remembering what happened after the flying vibrator incident, but my memory got fuzzy after he buckled me in. I must have blacked out.This is why I always say Brielle plus me equals a recipe for disaster.I looked down at what I was wearing and realized I wasn't in my clothes. I was wearing one of Liam's shirts again. It's becoming
