Novel & Cerita I Quit Being The Male Lead's Rival

The male lead and the female lead started their friends with benefits relationship again, although they weren’t friends. This time everything was more intense. The gardener had a crush on the female lead and treated her nicely to the point Seraphine had a second lead syndrome. These novels always put out golden second lead, making her wonder why would anyone with brains go for male lead? Surely the male lead was wealthy and held status, but that was not everything to a relationship. There was no stability, and there was a constant need to feel insecure by having one’s self-confidence shaken up. The male lead was jealous that his possession was eyed by someone and took drastic measures to sta

My eyes darted to his and I cursed under my breath before looking away from him because even though we had only made eye contact for a brief moment, he had been quick enough to flash me a smile. Noah hadn’t been as awful as Tyler and Shane were, he had just stood next to them while they harassed me and laughed at the insults they threw my way. In fact, if I had to pick between the three boys, I would choose Noah because he had been a lot nicer and he sometimes tried to make me feel better when I was upset due to Tyler’s and Shane’s harassment but I hadn’t trusted his motives since he was one of Tyler’s best friends.

It must look shameful, not wearing a scowl for once. “Alpha please” fuck. Therion has to leave. Therion has to leave now. He was treading very dangerous lands here. But somehow the younger man had gotten hold of his arm and was nuzzling into it. Due to his low inhibitions, he may not be able to pinpoint who he was , but Therion knows by now that hes very good at pretending ,so he frees his arm from the hold. A cry breaks out of Ashriel at that and Therion’s wolf is immediately defensive.

He hissed in pain, his eyes flickering between the wolf beneath him and his own wolves “I told you,” Dana’s voice echoed in his mind as she twisted her hand in his chest. “Your reign ends today.” “Fuck you…” Dominik spat weakly. “I refuse to be killed by a girl.” His hands twitched, trying to push her away, but he failed woefully. For the first time in his life, he came to a realization. The small girl he once looked down on… was gone. In her place stood an Alpha. A queen in her own right

"Looks like Madelyn's lost her mind! She thinks she's Mrs. Montague? She's probably bitter about not getting the lead role in the movie, huh? Hahaha." "Seriously? She's nowhere near Kiara's level!" I stood there, speechless. After all, the lead role had actually gone to me, not Kiara! Seeing me confused, Kiara turned to the crew, looking totally sure of herself. "Everyone, let's settle this. I'm Rick's legitimate wife, and this woman's been spreading lies about me. Do you guys think I should call the cops on her?" Heather quickly chimed in, "Of course! Kiara is so beautiful and kind, and now this crazy woman is slandering her! She's clearly trying to hurt Kiara!"

Laila said with a straight face as she came off the bed. Thank goodness our kids know how to put their rivalry aside and read the room. They easily obeyed, and that’s not something you see every day from the two rivals who never see eye to eye. My smile slowly lost its allure once they disappeared from my sight. And with stalled breath, I turned back to the couple. With Lizzy gone, I could properly assess my Beta. His injuries had mostly healed, that much I could tell from the missing cast and a few bandages around his leg. But his face? Lucas couldn’t look me in the eye.

“Do not reduce this to something petty. You think I do not see what you are doing? You are drifting. You are pulling away. And now I know why.” “It is not about someone else,” I said. The denial felt thin even to my own ears. He leaned closer, his face inches from mine. “You will be ready tomorrow,” he said quietly. “No more pills. No more games. We will do this properly. And if you sabotage this again, it will be worse.” Worse. The word did not need elaboration.

Ten years of planning, scheming, building my empire from nothing while the Ashfords lived in luxury built on my family's misery. Thomas Miller is off the list. And Vincent Ashford is next. His wife? She might just be the key to destroying him completely. I put the lighter in my pocket. One down. So many more to go.
