Elena Reed Novels & Stories

Later that night. Elena returned to her bedroom. She checked her mobile. Her social media profile kept receiving lots of subscribers, in thousands every day. She went to Lilian’s profile to see her friends. And Elena found the profile of the woman in the red dress. “Her name is Scarlett, huh…” She checked Scarlett’s profile and was shocked. The most recent post was made only a few minutes ago. It was about Elena. “This girl rejected Adrian back in school when Adrian was chubby,” Scarlett said. “But now that Adrian is fit, she wants him again. Can anybody help me bring Adrian out of the spell she put on him?”

When Elena felt she could face the hall again without revealing what had happened, she stepped out of the room and walked back toward the reception hall. At the same time, Ronan Reed, the son of Director Dante Reed, had been waiting to see Elena alone. When Elena walked out, he quickly brought out his phone and snapped and snapped at Elena. His eyes narrowed and he scrolled through earlier photos he had taken of Raven and Dolphus coming out of the same room one after another. “This Elena is not an ordinary woman,” Ronan muttered. “She has not even entered the company yet, but she is already close with Raven Santiago. And Dolphus too. I need to know what is actually happening between them.”

Inside, the air felt colder, heavier — charged with the kind of promise that only a woman in love and fury could make. Elara picked up her phone and scrolled through her contacts until she reached a familiar name. Her thumb hovered, then pressed call. “Hello, darling,” came the smooth voice on the other end. “Elena,” Elara said sweetly. “I need a favor. A background check on someone… discreetly.” There was a pause. “Someone related to Mr. Colden, I assume?” Elara’s smile was pure venom. “His fiancée.” “Ah,” the woman said, amused. “So the rumors were true.”

“You’re not fine. You’re furious. And you’re thinking about setting the building on fire.” “That’s dramatic.” “You get that from me.” She moved around the room like it bored her, like none of this chaos was real or worth worrying over. But Ava knew better. Eleanor Reed was a war general in pearls and cashmere. When she was calm, something was coming. “They want you to play nice,” she said, pausing in front of Ava's window. “They want you to shrink. Apologise. Behave. You won’t. You’ve never known how.”

Tim nods and waves, leaving me alone with Dean and a tall, skinny kid with similar dark eyes and dark hair. “Lilly, this is my brother Reed. Reed, this is Lilly” Reed holds out his hand, grinning, “Nice to meet you, Lilly” he blushes when I shake his hand. “Go inside, Reed. Lilly, and I are just catching up.” He looks to his brother and then back to me, disappointment etched on his face. He turns and goes straight into what I assume is their home. He takes my hand, twining our fingers together. Looking into my eyes, he says, “I’m going to make you mine, Lilly.”

Maddox stumbled—just for a second. But that second was all Raiden needed. He spun and ran. “Eliana, go!” Reed shouted. Eliana hesitated. “GO!” Reed grabbed her hand, yanking her backward. She didn’t fight it. She ran. Maddox snarled, his eyes burning as he watched Raiden and Eliana disappear into the battle. He turned back to Reed, his lips curling. “Well, you look so familiar,” he said, voice dangerously soft.

And then, the countdown. Three. Two. One. The red light blinked on. Valerie turned to the camera. “Good evening. Tonight, we bring you a story of betrayal, loss, and resilience. Elena Darlington has lived in silence for years after a public scandal nearly destroyed her life. For the first time, she joins us to share her truth. Elena, welcome.” I inhaled slowly. This was it. “Thank you, Valerie.” “Let’s begin at the beginning,” she said, folding her hands in her lap. “Tell us about your relationship with Jason Sinclair.”
