Better Man Written By Taylor Swift Novels & Stories

"What's with the dad vibes? Do all old guys love preaching like this? That night at Russell Manor, you knew better than anyone at that table that I was framing Phoebe, but you still sided with me, didn't you? I haven't even said a single word against Vanessa, yet you're already playing favorites. Would you call the cops on me if I framed Vanessa? "So what if I've got a bad temper? It's not like I don't know that. I've never claimed to be a saint! Anyway, whose fault is it that I'm a mess? The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. You're the one who spoiled me and made me like this! "Besides, I don't just fool around every day. I've made money from my investments, haven't I? Everyone else mig

“I stopped by The Lock Box before coming here." “Ah, so that’s what that taste was,” she teased and smirked at me while smacking her thin lips together. I smiled at her and went to hug her from behind. “I got myself a best man today.” She stopped her stirring of whatever was on the stove and turned around to look at me with her big, dark eyes. “You did?! Oh my gosh, honey!” She hugged me tightly and I laughed. She was reacting like I just got a big promotion at work when I was simply telling her I checked off something on my wedding to-do list. Come to think of it… it is rather quite an accomplishment.

"It would've been easier to say this if we had won but . . . Congratulations to the Sharks, you've really outdone yourselves." People snigger at his sarcastic remark and I tilt my head curious as to what he had to say. "About two months ago I met this girl and um, I'm sorry but I was supposed to announce this during our win," he shrugs as his teammates chuckle. "I'll just make this quick, she's amazing, she's so quiet and kind and inspiring. I don't think it's possible for me to not ask this question." "Loa?" I was frozen as everyone turned to look at me. My throat felt scratchy as I gulped and locked eyes with Samuel.

Instead, I simply raised my hand and slapped him across the other cheek. Everyone gasped, and the entire room fell into stunned silence. This time, Jayden was truly stunned. He stood there in a daze, his eyes wide with disbelief and simmering fury. "You, you dared to hit me?" I calmly withdrew my hand, my expression serene, my voice flat. "So what if I did? Jayden, it's time you faced reality. This isn't about revenge. I married Charles because I like him. In every single way, he's a better man than you."

Cooper did well to starve me and now I’m lusting after random men at the bar. His name jolted me back to my dilemma and a lone tear slipped from my eyes which I wiped immediately. I won’t cry for Cooper anymore, he was probably fucking Brittany now after ruining my life. A delicious scent hit my nostrils, expensive perfume and all-male making me whip my head around. The handsome hunk was close to me, I didn’t even notice when he had come over too engrossed in my thoughts. He was tall and that body was hot, he was built differently. This man was fine.

He stormed out and slammed the door behind him. I sat on the couch, unable to sleep all night. At dawn, a friend request with a woman's profile picture popped up on social media. Within ten seconds, messages started flooding in. A photo appeared, showing a woman with bare shoulders. Next to her was Eli, sound asleep. "He will never marry you. So what if you have a daughter with him? We made love all night, and he just fell asleep. Eli told me that he despises you and finds you nauseating."

Even though I've sworn like a million times not to think of that cold monster, the flowers I got delivered at work yesterday came to mind again. I have to make a decision tomorrow. All further musings were put on hold, "Hello" the one line greeting from the deep voice had me looking up to who it belonged to. “Hi” I croaked out taking the time to look him over properly. He was long. Because tall doesn’t describe how huge he towered over me in standing but he was cute. Not the- you’re the most beautiful man I’ve ever seen in my man type. Like Mr Demon. But in a boyish cute kind of way

Lucas liked one of the top comparison videos. That made everything worse and added fuel to fire. “Destiny Meyer humiliated” became a meme. I deleted my account without another word and sent a message to our company’s PR team. Ten minutes later, all the related posts and trending hashtags were wiped clean. ... The day before the engagement party. I stopped by the office to handle some documents, but before I could even settle in, two of the Whitmores’ bodyguards forced me into a black SUV and drove me straight to their estate.
