Booktok Scandal Novels & Stories

“Some sources claim that Jake Bennett isn’t as innocent as he seems. Reports suggest he’s been linked to a past scandal that Sophie may be trying to cover up.” Sophie’s hands tightened around the phone. What past scandal? There was nothing. Nothing in Jake’s life that warranted this level of scrutiny. But that didn’t matter to the press. They didn’t need facts—they just needed a story. They were tearing him apart, and she couldn’t stop it. She had to see him. The bell over the bookstore door chimed when Sophie walked in, but the usual warmth of the space felt different today. The air was heavy, the atmosphere tense.

I can feel the baby move, a constant reminder that I survived the fire. The world back home is still reeling from the cleanup. The truth couldn't stay hidden anymore. A mountain of files the "Blackwood Files" were released to the press. It was a scandal that shook the country to its core implicating most of top 0.01 percent of the richest families. The public learned about the underground drug rings and the human trafficking that the Blackwoods had hidden behind their shiny masks. The "charity galas" they hosted were revealed as nothing more than meetings for monsters.

Such a transactional touch that felt entirely too intimate. "The unredacted debt reconciliation ledgers," I whispered, looking up into his face. "The physical proof that Xavier double-booked the Hadley acquisition to deceive the SEC. The moment you leak these to the audit committee, his empire collapses." Eliot didn't pull the folder away. Instead, he leaned closer, his breath warm against my cheek and his eyes boring into mine. "And you're certain he doesn't know?"

I slid the toy lower, pushing it inside my cream filled hole pretending it was their dicks in me. "Yes.....yes....Jax....Ryder.....fuck....fuck...me harder...." Shame burned in my chest. Those two fuckers were still wet behind their ears while I was thirty one. I had a boyfriend and a reputable job. My mind went to my boyfriend who would throw up if he saw these books. The only thing he was good at was licking my cunt, with a lot of teeth. Sigh! He also had a puny cock. I brought the book closer reading the words. "They ruined her asshole. Hammered her tight backdoor till she squirted on the floor."

"Already are. I've gotten six calls in the past hour." Elena arrived at three AM. "The press is requesting comment." "About what specifically?" "They're spinning it as 'what is Blackwood hiding?' Even though there's nothing scandalous in the documents, the leak itself looks suspicious." "So we're guilty because someone made us a victim." "Basically." Alex wanted to put his fist through a wall. By morning, the story was everywhere. "Blackwood Foundation Data Breach Exposes Donor Information" "What Was Blackwood Trying to Hide?"

“Okay, Sky, just show him the photo of the book you took. That way, he’ll see it’s nothing suspicious and everyone can calm the hell down.” She immediately shook her head. “No, I can’t.” I frowned. “Why not?” She hesitated. Then, leaning in, she whisper-yelled, “Because… because it’s a photo of an erotic book and it would be embarrassing to show him that I’m interested in reading it.” I pressed my lips together so hard I nearly pulled a muscle trying not to laugh. “Sky, be serious. You—the same woman who once made eye contact with a waiter while ordering ‘extra creamy’ pasta without breaking a sweat—are embarrassed about an erotic book? This is your line?”

God knows the narrative didn’t need more fuel. The room was too clean. Too white. Too cold. I dropped my bag at the foot of the bed and sat down, staring at the blank TV screen like it might show me a different life. Then my phone buzzed. T*****r. I*******m. Blog links. “The Nanny Scandal: Who Is May Hemlings?” “Leaked Video Exposes CEO’s Secret Affair.” “From Nobody to Notorious: The Woman at the Center of It All.” I threw the phone across the bed. It bounced once, landed screen-down.

“I am a lawyer for Crownbridge Holdings. I stand for trust. The book must go under escrow unless you agree now.” The word trust hit like ice. Adrian’s face twisted. His voice broke. “You. You are the reason my life was ruined.” Aiko only bowed her head, calm and cold. “I am here for rights.” The house turned into a court. Nia pushed. Laurent pressed. Gabriel whispered warnings. Aiko smiled like a shark. I forced my voice steady. “The book does not move unless me and Nia open it. Here. Now. With cameras.” They looked at each other, then nodded. Cameras lit up. Phones ready. The book sat on the table like a beast.

Just as Matteo was about to leave for the office after breakfast, Letty suddenly shot up from her chair. Her face turned pale as she stared at her phone screen. “This is insane! You guys need to see this,” Letty said, her voice shaking. She immediately handed her phone to Nicole. The youngest, who had only been frowning at first, suddenly went just as pale as Letty. On the screen was a photo of Rose running from Aaron’s wedding, along with an old photo of Romilda. Matteo’s photo was placed right between them. The headline was bold: “The Cavanaugh Scandal: Greedy Billionaire Wants Both Sisters?”

I tossed my keys onto the counter. “It's hard to miss them.” Still laughing, she held her phone toward me. WASHINGTON ELITE SCANDALS ISAAC BROOKE’S WIFE SPOTTED WITH DECLAN LAURENT AFTER PUBLIC DRAMA Another headline underneath read: AFFAIR OR REVENGE? Kara shook her head in amusement. “This is actually embarrassing for her.” I grabbed a whiskey bottle from the bar and poured myself a drink without answering. “She really picked the wrong man to fake a revenge scandal with,” Kara continued smugly.
