Captivated Tessa Bailey Novels & Stories

a girl says standing in front of me, "I'm guessing you are Leon's wife-to-be. Sorry I couldn't make it to the engagement party, my flight got delayed." "It's fine," I say quietly, who the hell is this girl? "Bianca Harrison." "Oh I'm sorry, I'm Tessa Bailey," she says shaking my hand, "I'm Leon's cousin. Our dad's are brothers. My dad actually runs all the hotels on the other side of the world." "Makes sense now," I smile. "Leon just left you as soon as you two got here I'm guessing," she states and I nod sheepishly, "My cousin is a dick, everyone knows it. You can hang with me tonight."

“Let me dig. Quietly. I’ll pull her phone records if I have to. Check who she was talking to.” Tessa shook her head, stepping back. “You always say that,” she said, voice breaking just a little. “Everyone does. Wait. Be patient. Trust the process. And then something happens. Roman gets shot. Grayson gets stabbed. Nandini collapses.” Davin reached for her arm. “Tessa—” She pulled away. “I’m done waiting.” She turned, walking fast toward the ballroom. Davin watched her go, hand still outstretched. He felt it then—that sinking certainty in his gut. He was about to lose control of the day. And there was nothing he could do to stop it.

Rollins shouted following Richard. Duncan's Mansion. *TESSA* I jumped on my bed after dressing up in my pyjamas. I couldn't stop day dreaming about Christian. I am loving him right now, how I wish he is my boyfriend. His looks are breathtaking, his black curly hair appreciates his eyebrows as they almost touch each other. I looked at my phone repeatedly expecting his call. I kept myself busy with a novel, I got tired of it so soon.

Arden and Tessa’s expressions changed. “I guess it’s fine if we tell you,” Arden said gently. “Tell me what?” I asked immediately. “My daughter,” Tessa said softly, “is… well, she’s something like a psychic. She’s half witch.” “Oh,” I murmured. “I think I’ve heard. She helped with taking down Azalea Rose.” “Yes, Calla is amazing,” Arden muttered. “And her visions are accurate,” she added. I nodded slowly. Then Tessa inhaled. “And one of her visions was that Elias… would die alone.”

My fingers moved expertly, the same way they did when handling a gun, a pen, or the fragile balance between patience and vengeance. Reese Keeler’s birthday. A night of champagne and politics, of carefully chosen words and silly role-plays. But that wasn’t why I was going. I slipped on my watch, pressing a button on the side. A single ring later, the call connected. "Everything is in place," Isaac’s voice came through, ready as always. "I’ll be inside before the main guests arrive." I adjusted my collar, staring at my reflection. "The girl." "I’ll confirm tonight," Isaac assured. "If she’s his daughter, we’ll know."

Insane enough to know that he wanted more. He groaned over her sweet moans. He wanted to feel her skin on his. He wanted to feel more of her warmth. "I want to feel you," Kaleb gasped, his hands touching the ends of her dress. God. He want to peel it off her. Bailey didn't understand why she was so entranced by him. She didn't even care that she was allowing him to touch her in this way. Her skin burned. Her veins rush with blood. God she was in heaven.

" I saw Tessa waiting outside , she stopped talking to a tall guy and ran to hug me. "Hey , you ." I admired her French braids, "I like what you did to your hair." "Thank you." She blushed. "You are looking sexy tonight." She touched my boobs since I was braless. I knocked her hands off. "Don't pull that gay shit on me." I jokingly warned her. Yes , Tess was bisexual , sometimes she likes boys then she switches to girls. It took her time before she could open up to me because she thought I would stay away from her because I didn't want her to throw any advances on me.

but Bailey cut her off. "No! I heard enough." "I'm glad you finally understand," Tiana said gravely. "But remember, say the words and I'll be there to show you the magic in me." Bailey blushed and she suddenly took her bag and started to head out to my door. "Where are you going?" I asked in confusion. "I had enough," she said, not even bothering to look at me. Where's the respect at that? "Wait, Bailey. It's really not any of your business if I'm hooking up with A, right? So what's your problem?" Tiana unexpectedly said, laughing weakly at herself and that made Bailey stopped in her own track.

“The moments you shared happened. Hold onto that. Don’t let her steal those memories too.” “She stole my parents. My childhood. My trust. She doesn’t get my memories too.” I leaned into him. “We’re going to stop her. Stop Project Genesis. Free everyone she’s holding.” “We,” he corrected. “We’re going to stop her. Together.” “Together.” My phone buzzed. A photo. Showing Tessa sitting in what looked like a command center. Screens behind her show the estate. Showing us on the balcony. Showing this exact moment. Below the photo, one line.

she said but stopped, carefully thinking over her next words. “Okay, is everything alright,” Dainin asked. Tessa huffed in frustration as her hand ran through her hair. “It is, but my grandmother spilled the beans that I found my mate so now everyone wants to meet you,” she rushed out, but Dainin was hypnotized by the way she nervously pulled her lower lip between her teeth. He reached over, turning her head to face him as his thumb gently pulled Tessa’s lip free from her hold. The pad of his thumb slowly slid over the soft skin of her full lip and he smiled when she took hold of his hand, pulling it away to intertwine their fingers.
