บททั้งหมดของ THE POPSTAR’S BODYGUARD : บทที่ 51 - บทที่ 60

Tell Me To Stop DANIELKiss me… please.”The plea hit me like a gunshot in the quiet room.Neo’s green eyes were locked on mine, raw and desperate, his body still trembling slightly against my chest from the nightmare. His hand burned against my waist, fingers digging in as if I were the only thing keeping him grounded.I should stop this.I should pull back, remind him I’m his bodyguard, tell him he’s not thinking clearly after everything with his father.But the way he was looking at me, like I was safety and salvation and sin all at once, broke the last of my restraint.“Neo…” My voice was rough, barely a whisper. I cupped the back of his neck, thumb stroking the soft skin there. “If I start, I’m not sure I can—”“Then don’t stop,” he breathed.That was the permission I shamelessly wanted.I went in, pressing my lips softly against his at first — careful, almost reverent. His lips were warm and slightly salty from the tears. He sighed into my mouth, melting against me like he’d be

Keep My SecretNEOThe door of the boardroom hadn’t fully closed behind me when Daniel grabbed my arm and pulled me into a corridor, out of sight. “What was that about.?”I let out a deep sigh, my gaze dropping to the floor before rising to his face. “They’re trying to push the Anne narrative harder.”I couldn’t read Daniel’s face. He stepped back, creating a space between us. “What are you going to do about that?” He studied my face, waiting for an answer. I turned away, my brain searching for the right thing to say. “I want to break up with her.”His eyebrows shot up. “You know that’s impossible from the way things are looking.”We were walking out of the building now. Much hadn’t changed around here since the last time I came by. I was too occupied with the concerts.“Don’t make a decision because of me.”“I’m not,” I paused mid-walk, turning to face him. “I’m doing this for myself too. I…I’m tired of pretending.” I run a hand through my hair down to my face. “It’s exhausting.”D

Media TrainedNEOThe couch was empty when I woke up. My head throbbed with an unrelenting banging. Daniel. He was nowhere in the room. I checked where his duffel bag usually was. The place was empty. Short bursts of memory flooded through my brain. Me sitting in the darkness, drowning in alcohol as if it could erase the fact that I couldn't break up with Anne as planned. I remembered saying something to Daniel last night but couldn't recall what no matter how hard I searched my brain. I held the side of my head, wincing as I slid out of the bed, reaching for my phone. Vivian had sent me tons of messages. With a sigh, I opened them one after the other. Just as I expected, I had media rounds and, of course, a fucking exclusive couple interview with Anne.~~~“Yes, over there,” the new stylist, Miles, whom we hired last week said. A man in his early twenties. He had purple-dyed hair and wore a transparent shirt, with a feminine manner. “Good.” He rolled the stack of clothes to the liv

Keep Talking NEODaniel avoided me for the rest of the day. Well not really, since he was my bodyguard and all but he kept a good distance. It shouldn't have bothered me as much as it did. I’d completely gone insane. There was no other explanation for dragging my bodyguard into a bathroom and letting him touch me like that. God, this was so fucked. And somehow I still couldn't regret it. The memory of his hand on me made my cock twitch. Right now I was in my room at the Penthouse. And of course, Daniel was nowhere to be found. He had asked to take a day off to sort out personal matters. No matter how hard I thought about it, I couldn't understand why he would want to be away from me after the washroom incident. Daniel was avoiding me. He didn't want me to feel like he was and probably decided to cook up the excuse. I stared at my ceiling with a sigh and turned my head to face the door of my room. Today had been hectic. Thank fuck Anne had stopped pestering me and was at least g

Congratulations, NeoNEO“Not until I met you.”The words had tumbled out of my mouth before I could stop them. Great. Just fantastic.Now Daniel probably thought I was having some kind of emotional breakdown. I groaned, covering my face with the pillow. The call with Daniel had been surprisingly helpful. I didn’t feel like crap anymore, and even so, I was surprised he listened to me rant. And not only that, but he also told me about his dad. Overthinker me thought he was avoiding me. Turned out he wasn’t. I rolled onto my back and stared at the ceiling. Daniel’s voice echoed in my ears. ‘I’m here.’Such a stupid thing to get hung up on. Yet my chest felt strangely lighter.My phone buzzed in my hand. It was a notification on an IG picture I posted some time last week. From one of my interviews. It read. ‘When is Neo going live. We’ve missed your lives.’Several other comments followed, supporting the first. They were asking for a live. I hadn’t done that in ages. I simply didn’
