Strawberry Shortcake Reboot Novels & Stories

The contract marriage was set to last one year—on paper, a strategic partnership, but in reality, a power move that would force Jamie to take me seriously. I dropped the paper, back on the desk and I looked at him “you added a clause” He smirked, “of course I did”. I used my fingers to move it closer to him and tapped the section that read: In the event of betrayal or failure to uphold agreed-upon terms, the contract will be nullified, and financial reparations of five billion dollars must be made to Johnny Harrington. I scoffed. “Five billion?, I offered two billion. You think highly of yourself”

"Don't touch that. They're a gift for someone." Seeing the shift in my expression, he quickly softened his demeanor. "I mean, Maeve, there's so much food on the table for you to choose from, except for these corn buns…" I ignored him and began scrolling on my phone. Unsurprisingly, I saw Carmen's latest post. It read, "I'm craving sweet corn buns. I miss the ones I had back in Samona!" So, the man who had barely touched a cooking pan in all his life had prepared a spread just because of a single social media post. I ate a few bites and rose to my feet. "Forget about it. I'm done eating."

How could I forget her kind gesture of baking a birthday cake for me, which was filled with a potion meant to weaken my bond with Lucian? The twist here….. The potion will only make me feel the intense pain of rejection but will save Lucian. Their motive??? To show everyone that I am not as strong as I pretend. I slowly moved towards her with a practiced smile on my lips with my clothes in my hands. “I am really grateful to you, Neelie. I appreciate your kind gesture of baking a cake for me when my family forgot that it’s my birthday today. Let’s have the cake with everyone during breakfast. It may be my last birthday as the eldest alpha’s daughter. Next year, you will be in charge of my bir

She gently lifted her gaze from the staircase and turned to look at me, “That’s not in your place to tell her, go and talk to her, you shouldn’t be fighting at a time like this!” She said patting my shoulders lightly. *FLASHBACK* “Happy Birthday to you, Happy birthday to you,” “Come on, Make a wish and blow your candles!” “Come back here Damon, you must make a wish this year, you’re too care free, don’t be such a buzzkill” “But I have everything I need, there’s nothing more to wish for!”

She grabbed the phone on her bedside table, her hands trembling as she checked the date. August 3rd, 2XXX. She wasn’t dreaming. She was back. Three years before disaster struck. She let out a shaky breath and smiled, a rare, genuine smile. This time, everything would be different. This time, she would rewrite her fate. Her family, who had died protecting her... Louis, the man she had pushed away... and Natalie, the so-called best friend who had orchestrated her downfall... Daisy had a chance to change it all. The phone rang, pulling her from her thoughts. The high-pitched voice on the other end was unmistakable.

If he wanted, he could make a killing as a runway model, though I doubted he’d ever do anything so “basic” He returned less than five minutes later with Sweet Tooth’s signature pink-and-golden cake box tucked beneath one arm. He dumped it in my lap, snapped his umbrella closed, and reversed out of the parking spot without so much as blinking. “Do you ever smile?” I asked, peeking inside the box to make sure they hadn’t messed up the order. Nope. One Strawberry Shortcake Cheesecake, coming right up. “It might help with your condition.” “What condition?” Peter sounded bored.

IZZY POV We had a quiet dinner that night. Joanna had pulled out the stops, making all of my favorites. I didn’t have an appetite, but I tried everything because I knew it would please her. The strawberry shortcake was the grand finale, done to perfection using sponge cake instead of the biscuits that were traditional. Just the way I liked it. I stood up from the table and turned to Joanna. “Thank you for the most delicious meal,” I said with a smile. Joanna gave me a watery smile back.

I sighed. “ So what's the plan? ” “ The plan is rather simple. All I need you to do is cry for your strawberry shortcakes, ” I beamed. “ Strawberry shortcakes? ” Chloe was both surprised, confused and excited. I guess that's the result of excess sugar. “ Yes, so it's operation strawberry shortcakes! ” * * * *

"Noah has just been promoted to the presidency of the family business." Isabel replied, feeling like a mediator between the two; He even felt like he was in his favorite movie, "Shrek 2," when Shrek and the king were having a tense conversation at dinner. He smiled slightly, thinking that the only thing missing was the food flying through the air like in the movie. "Oh, I mean... Your dad gave you his old position." "It's one of the best tequila companies in the country, called "CURVOS." Isabel replied, to which Hayami only smiled upon hearing the company's name.

Maxina Heart wasn't the McDonald's family's biological daughter. Their real daughter was long gone. She died at the hands of the human traffickers. Maxina shared the same name as their daughter, which was unlucky from the start. She had been with the traffickers for as long as she could remember. She didn't know her real parents. A year ago, the McDonald family mistakenly took her for their daughter and brought her home. Maxina wanted to see if they were worthy of the girl who was dead because of their mistake. They weren't. Maxina Heart died at the end of that year because her friend's family chose Karen, an adopted daughter who replaced the real Maxina. Now, she's back, and she
