CHAPTER ONE "Tonight's party is going to be amazing!" someone shouted from the back of the class.Reyna squeezed her face in irritation; the noise was annoying her. She continued sketching the dress design she was working on, smiling as her masterpiece came together."What's making the ugly duckling smile?" a girl asked loudly.Reyna wished she were a snail, able to hide in her shell whenever she felt threatened or attacked.The girl walked up to her and peered at what Reyna was drawing. Reyna tried to hide it, but the girl yanked the sketchbook from her hands."You draw dresses?" Her tone was mocking, and she let out a fake laugh.Reyna pushed her glasses up the bridge of her nose, embarrassed."Don’t tell me you want to be a fashion designer?" The girl kept mocking her as she flipped through the sketchbook."These are so ugly. No one would want them." She threw the sketchbook across the room."Suzy, that was rude," another girl cautioned."Rude? She's an ugly thing. I can't stand h

The room was decorated with lights which were bright and golden, shimmering off the diamond chandeliers of the luxury event hall. Cameras flashed, reporters whispered, and all eyes were on the woman in the black beaded silk gown. Reyna Styles, the fashion industry's newest star, moments away from accepting the prestigious International Fashion designing Award.She held herself with poise and confidence threaded through every graceful step she took toward the stage, she was ethereal. Her brand, Aurora Couture was being awarded with the top award for being the best of the year. But before she could get backstage so she could receive her award, a waiter passed her a glass of champagne.When she turned around, she saw it wasn't a waiter, it was someone else.“Reyna?” His voice was smooth, husky, all too familiar. She stared at the person.“I almost couldn't recognize you, you look totally different now” His voice held a subtle admiration as he scanned her.Roman Knight is older now but

Years had passed since that night in college,the night they had shared. She had so much trust in him, but he let his pride overtake him. He remembered how he laughed when the rumors started. He had denied her in front of half the school and had been silent, while she got bullied for something that wasn't her fault. Like she wasn’t a person with feelings.“I’m not that desperate,” he had said to them. God. He wanted to punch his past self, for being so stupid, for making such a foolish blunder. He didn’t expect her to become who she was today. Reyna Styles, acclaimed designer, she was confident, breathtakingly composed, and didn’t look like someone who was broken. She looked like someone who had rebuilt herself without a single help from anyone. And that hurt him more than he was willing to admit. That she had struggled so much and it was probably his fault. He was grown now, he knew that he made foolish decisions in the past but now he wanted to correct his mistakes only if she w

The morning sun filtered through the sheer curtains of Reyna’s penthouse suite, casting golden streaks across her neatly made bed. She stretched slightly, rubbing her eyes as she let out a soft yawn. Her phone vibrated furiously beside her on her bed. At first, she ignored it, thinking it was probably a flurry of post-show congratulations. But then the buzzing turned aggressive, several calls came in at once, notifications flooding into her phone. “It's too early in the morning for this” With a sigh, she picked up her phone, after unlocking it she began going through it. There were a multiple number of missed calls,hundreds of notifications, group chats blowing up, mentions tagging her on social media platforms. There were several headlines flashing with words like ‘scandal,’ ‘leaked,’ and her name severally tagged with Roman Knight's.Her pulse spiked, why was her name being joined with his? She tapped on one of the links and her breath caught in her throat when she saw the vide

Roman wanted to believe he wasn't hearing right, “Vivian Sliver? Are you sure?” He asked. “Yes sir, the video was posted from her address." The caller confirmed. “And the hotel staff who leaked the CCTV footage?” “We dealt with him as you asked sir” Roman nodded “Good, keep me informed.” “Yes sir.” Roman ended the call clenching his fists, “Vivian that bitch.” She had threatened to do something to Reyna, but he didn't think she would be so reckless and destructive. For what she had done he'd make sure she paid dearly. ******Vivian sat poised under the studio lights, she couldn't let this opportunity to play the victim and disgrace Reyna pass by so easily. She was dressed elegantly sitting down with poise, but she schooled her features to look like the innocent girlfriend she was about to play. This was the country's biggest broadcasting company and most watched reality show, she would definitely get the audience she was looking for. “Vivian Sliver,” the interviewer began, “
