Becoming A Star Novels & Stories

“Coming Mum.“ I yelled for the umpteenth time, but didn't move an itch from the worn-out marble floor I laid. My gaze was still fixed on the small television which was just few metres away from me, with my chin on my hands for support.

Next, Kim tells her everything about the search for her by the star jump media star scout, "What's up? What do you think?" Lily hesitated. "It's said that the entertainment industry is very chaotic.

Constellations: Danica stood at the helm and a yawn escaped her lips as she steered the ship. She watched the stars dance across the ocean current. She sighed happily. She was always fascinated with sailing and the ocean. She remembers trying to sneak on each ship her father would take to go on a trades deal. One time she even got out of the harbor with them. A small smile crept on her lips as she thought of the memory. How angry her father was that he had to turn around because six year old her had gotten past everyone. She remembered when she could finally go on her first voyage with him and the excitement she felt. Her smile grew thinking of the memory.

“And there are rules you will follow.” Her chin lifted slightly — brave despite the tremor in her breathing. “Of course.” I studied her face — really looked at her for the first time ever. There was something there. Not beauty. Not a weakness. Something else. Something that pressed uncomfortably beneath my ribs. But, I ignored it. “First,” I said coolly, “you will learn to speak and hold yourself as a proper Luna. With dignity. Authority. The Elders and pack will expect it.” Her lips parted, not in protest, but uncertainty.

my heart, my heart is begging me not to. "Stella, this is your chance. You told me you want to be star, righ?" her gaze fixed upon me. She wasn't even blinking and I nodded right away, because obviously, who doesn't want to become a star? Well, I'm not talking about literally a star.

he spoke slowly, choosing each word carefully. "It is?" "Yeah, I mean, you're not familiar with any of these things so your reaction is perfectly understandable. I'm sure you realize by now that a lot of things in your life are gonna change," he paused, letting it sink in. His words were gaining confidence. "I assure you, it's not yet over. So what we're gonna do is to get you an agent. Someone who'd not only help you sign deals but also groom you, mold you to become the star we want you to be, but it has to be someone you know, I don't want you to lose that original next-door girl vibe. I think it's your mojo," he nodded and for the first time, she smiled.

"I can see you want to know what kind of job we have for you." I nodded, keeping my shut so I wouldn't miss any details. The young man also nodded in acknowledgment. "Well, we are going to make you a star..." "A star?!" I exclaimed. "But I barely know anything about being a celebrity..." I added, making him smile. "No need to worry; just follow my lead, and everything is going to be fine. I'll be taking you to the organization now. All you need to do is to pass the interview." "What kind?" I pressed. I wanted to know what kind of celebrity I was required to be.

Cecilia casually responded, "Maybe you can become a celebrity. "You don't need to have acting skills like an actor, as long as you have fans who like you. Money just flows into your pocket easily, and it's a high-paying job." She remembered how everyone used to criticize pop stars back in school. Of course, there was also an element of envy involved. When they were students, they talked about having ambitious goals. They wrote down their grand aspirations, dreaming of becoming scientists, astronomers, doctors who would save lives, or police officers who would protect the public.

As Star delved deeper into her newfound abilities, she sought guidance from those who had walked a similar path. She sought out mentors, wise individuals who had mastered their own powers and understood the delicate balance between magic and responsibility. They taught her to channel her energy, to focus her intentions, and to embrace the true nature of her powers. But it wasn't just the external guidance that shaped Star's journey.

“Maybe I am. Maybe that’s what they want. A tragic story sells, right? The broken idol.” Jay’s jaw tightened. “Don’t do that. Don’t turn yourself into a headline just to prove a point.” Blue stared at him then, really stared, and for the first time in a long while, he let his guard slip. His voice cracked as he whispered, “What if I can’t do this anymore, Jay? What if I don’t even know who I am without… all of this?”
