NOAH’S POVA FEW HOURS EARLIER“President Beck, I must apologise, but we can’t travel in this weather,”I glared at the pilot, anger boiling at the back of my mind as I stared at the man who dared to tell me what I could and couldn’t do.“Get the plane in the air right now,” I hissed.The pilots looked between themselves, fingers trembling as they thought of ways to refuse my order, “President Beck, the best we can do is try to wait this rain out and when that is done, we will be the first in the air,”The suggestion sounded reasonable, but I wasn’t a reasonable man. Sasha was across the globe, worried about what her show would look like and I couldn’t be there to tell her what she needed to hear.They were wrong to think that they could tell me no.“I need this plane in the air as early as yesterday, or you can all kiss your pilot licenses goodbye,” I growled.They had the time, all they needed to do now was to sort themselves out.Matt rushed to my side, “Emma hasn’t stopped calling

AUTHOR’S POVNoah Beck had stepped into the room, just a few minutes before the curtain was about to be drawn. But what had caught their attention was the fact that in his hand was a bouquet of the reddest roses they had ever seen. They glowed so bright like a warning beacon on a light tower, calling sailors home.Anastasia frowned; she had just seen Sasha in the bathroom. She had been smug, smiling like a woman who had a thousand secrets to tell. And now, Noah?Something panged at the back of her chest, this wasn’t right.Petal Conrad had been the next to see him, standing close with the bouquet in hand, “What does he think he is doing?”Eleanor scoffed, glaring daggers at the man who was yet to notice them, “Trying to make the night about him,”That wasn’t the only thing that caught the matriarch’s attention, it was the way he smiled, his eyes gleamed with pride as he stared at the models, all dressed up and looking spectacular.There was a familiarity in his eyes, and that was a d

AUTHOR’S POVThe sound of the applause still echoed through the ears, and with it, the buzz of whispers, gasps and the unbeatable hum of scandal that had happened in real time.“What in the hell?” Roland was the first to snap the second the car door closed behind them. “Who the fuck accepted this invitation?”“Roland!” Eleanor hissed, looking towards the window with a bead of sweat forming on her forehead. “You have to remain calm, those cameras are sharp,”Roland rolled his eyes, pulling out the flask that he had kept hidden, “Don’t you think we have been scrutinised enough? They already have all the pictures they wanted. We looked like fools in there,”“Where is Petal?” Maya mumbled, her voice barely hiding the motions that she was feeling.Roland scoffed, “What do you think? She is gone, always thinking of herself first,”“Roland! Stop!” Eleanor hissed, completely fed up with the way he was speaking uncontrollably.Petal hadn’t gone with them, she had taken the second car, leaving

SASHA’S POVI took a shot, made the dare.The house was quiet when we returned. The bright lights, cameras flickering, shrills, screams, they were no more.Here it was just Noah and me, alone. Peaceful.“Do you want to find a vase to put the flowers in?” he asked, his voice startling me slightly.I looked down, my eyes staring at the flowers in my hand, the way I had clutched them close to my chest like it was some life jacket. “That will be great. I will be out in a minute,”When I returned, he had pulled off his tie, sitting by the counter with two glasses of wine before him,” I don’t think we had the time to celebrate alone,”His voice was hoarse, the baritone base sending pleasurable shivers down my spine. My core clenched, throbbing rapidly for attention.“Seeing you tonight, that was just one of the best highlights,” I whispered, moving closer to where he sat as I settled on the chair beside him.“This is a commitment, and I will always show up on your big days and bad days,”My

SASHA’S POVI felt stupid.I should have gone to my room, but for a second, I had been stupid, let Nina’s words ring through my head.He hadn’t looked at me, didn’t say a word, walked into the bathroom like I was a memory he wished he never had.I couldn’t sit on the bed, and act like nothing had happened. I was the one, the one who was sprawled out on his bed, screaming his name like a prayer.I picked up my phone, “Hey, do you mind if I come over?”“Come over Sasha,” Nina said over the phone.I did want ii always do. Packed a few bags and ran.If I don’t stay around it, he wouldn’t be a problem, and maybe just maybe he can stare at me with something other than regret in his eyes.Nina was waiting by her door, a thin blanket wrapped around her body. He hadn’t called, and the guards didn’t even blink when they noticed me drive out. All they did was have a team follow me.Was that his twisted way of telling me that he wants me? Owns me?“Is everything fine?” she asked, I could hear the
