BLSC #10: His Bid on Her Chapter 1 1

Irene Payton

"We need to re-check the ingredients to make the wedding cake tomorrow," I said to my assistant Velda. She nodded her head and put a reminder on the board

I added a little more sugar and peanut butter to my new recipe Peanut Butter Cupcake. I'm so excited for this new recipe , I'm perfecting my recipe now so I can publish it soon

"Irene , shouldn't we buy more box? I'm not sure we have enough to carry all those macaroons and cupcakes" Velda said and I turned to her

"How much should we buy again?"

"We got 400 now and we need more"

"I'll call and buy it right away" I said and she nodded. My phone suddenly rang and I quickly walked to the counter to take my phone. It's Beth my best friend called

"Hello"

"Where are you?"

"The shop" I answered

"What?!" She squealed and that made me jump a little

"What?" I asked her calmly while put the icing into a plastic bag and put her on loudspeaker

"Irene it's 4 hours till the charity event"

"So?" I asked as I took a little on icing and tasted it

"We need to get ready! Come to my apartment pronto!"

"I can get ready for 1 hour" I said not even caring how will I look tonight. There's no one to impress anyway. I mean it's a charity and there will be a bid but I don't need a someone to impress there.

"Come to my apartment now or I'll kidnap you from that kitchen of your or should I burn it?" Beth and her unique temper

"I'll be there in one hour" I said

"No no.. Now Rene. N-O-W Prontooo!" She said in a really high tone causing my employee to laugh

"Fine"

"Make sure to be here before 3 Irene or else" She said and ended the call. I looked at the clock and I still have 20 minutes. I looked at my icing and tried to put it on the cupcake

"Try it" I gave it to my employee

"Is it good?" I asked

"It's so delicious" I smiled because of that. I took a taste and yes damn it's so delicious. I quickly took off my apron and walked out from the kitchen. I bid my goodbyes to all of them and got into my car to drive to Beth's

"What took you so long?" She asked as I walked into her apartment

"I'm making a new recipe Beth , we still have 3 hours anyway. I'm going to sleep for 1 hour" I said and threw myself to the bed. Beth pulled my leg completely not liking the idea I'm sleeping

"Go take a shower Irene , I'm going to dress you beautifully tonight"

"No , I'm not going if you're going to dress me" I shook my head and she crossed her arms in front of her chest

"What?"

"I don't want to reveal any of my skin" I said and she shook her head. She walked to her closet and took out a red dress. This dress will fit me but the idea revealing too much skin made me hate it.

I don't mind showing so much skin but I'm not up for boys hitting on me these days. I'm still focusing on my career and not ready for a relationship yet.

"I don't want it"

"What? Why? It's so beautiful?"

"You wear that , I'm wearing that navy blue dress" I pointed at her closet and she rolled her eyes

"I'm burning that dress so you have no other choice" She smirked and I sighed

"Beth , you know I don't want to attract people with this right?"

"Shut up. I bet you will be sold for 100.000$ tonight or maybe more than that" She squealed and I looked at her disbelief

"Who would want me with that amount? No one Beth , no one!"

"Oh there will be , wanna bet?" She asked and I shook my head

"Not betting anything with you" Because I always.. lose

"Oh come on Irene , maybe I'm wrong. 100.000$ is damn big for this charity Irene" She said and I shook my head

"Please let there be a hot guy around" She closed her eyes praying

"It's just a dinner Beth , no big deal" I shrugged and decided to charge my phone

"I know but at least please be a hot guy"

"I'm not interested, '' I said as I got up from her bed and made my way to the bathroom. I took a shower and washed my hair quickly. I walked out from the bathroom with my towel only

"Should I wear this or this?" She asked between black dress and white dress

"White , it looks good on you" I said , I dried my hair and curled it. I put my makeup on and curled my hair loosely

"I don't want to wear this" I said looking at the red dress

"Wear it Irene , it really looks so good on you" She said as she's wearing her earrings and rings. I sighed and put the dress on me. I looked at the mirror and yes it fit me perfectly

It revealed my back a lot and there's a cut on my waist. It's a halter dress and it's short. I'm revealing a lot of skin tonight and I think I will regret it soon

I took my black clutch and put my phone , lipstick , powder , money and cards inside.

"You're so getting someone tonight" Beth smirked

"I'm not interest for relationship Beth , I've told you that"

"Oh come on , just because you broke up with Lucas 5 months ago made you stop wanting a relationship. You didn't even cry.."

"Because I'm the one who dumped him Beth" I stated the obvious as I walked out from her apartment. We went down to the lobby taking the cab to the venue.

We went to the venue and the staff already led us to the back of the stage. Because the charity event will start so soon.

I got number 17 for the order and there's 25 girls here. I'm damn nervous.. who will make a bid on me..

SHANA GRAY
4.5

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.

One Night With The Wrong Brother

One Night With The Wrong Brother

Tangye Wanzi

I thought I was waking up in the arms of Arthur, the man I loved. But as the morning light hit the Hamptons estate, the man buttoning his cuffs by the window turned around with eyes like chips of ice. It was Augustus Riddle, Arthur’s cruel younger brother, and I had just spent the night whispering confessions of love into the wrong man's ear. The night I thought was a beautiful beginning turned into a devastating nightmare. Instead of comfort, Gus treated me like a stain on his expensive carpet, scribbling a check for "services rendered" before shoving me into a dark service corridor to hide my existence from his brother. "How much does it cost to buy your silence?" He sneered, before leaving me barefoot in a torrential downpour while he drove away in a luxury Cadillac. Four years later, I am a struggling actress in Los Angeles, working double shifts as a barista just to keep the lights on. My life was finally stable until my roommate dragged me to a high-end dinner to meet her new "influential" boyfriend. The man sitting at the table, looking more arrogant and lethal than ever, was Augustus. He spent the entire night humiliating me, calling me a pathetic amateur and a social climber in front of my only friends. When I fled into the rain and collapsed on the sidewalk, skinning my knee until I bled, he watched from his car. He saw me clutching a plastic baggie containing the taped-together pieces of that four-year-old check—the only proof of my shame. He looked at me like roadkill, rolled up his window, and drove off into the dark. I couldn't understand why he was doing this. Why did he hate me enough to crush me, yet remember that I couldn't handle the smell of cigarette smoke? Why did he leave me bleeding in the street, only to send expensive medical supplies and coffee to my door the very next morning? "I'm moving out." I told my roommates, realizing that Gus Riddle didn't just want to destroy me; he wanted to haunt me. I grabbed my suitcase and walked out with eighty dollars to my name, finally ready to disappear into the city before he could burn the rest of my life to the ground.

The Scars She Hid From The World

The Scars She Hid From The World

REGINA MCBRIDE
4.6

The heavy iron gates of the Wilderness Correction Camp groaned as they released me after three years of state-sponsored hell. I stood on the dirt road, clutching a plastic bag that held my entire life, waiting for the family that claimed they sent me there for "rehab." My brother, Brady, picked me up in a luxury SUV only to throw me out onto a deserted highway in the middle of a brewing storm. He told me I was a "public relations nightmare" and that the rain might finally wash the "stink" of the camp off me. He drove away, leaving me to limp miles through the mud on a snapped ankle. When I finally dragged myself to our family estate, my mother didn't offer a hug; she gasped in horror because my muddy clothes were ruining her Italian marble. They didn't give me my old room back. Instead, they banished me to a moldy gardener’s shack and hired a "babysitter" to make sure I didn't embarrass them further. My sister, Kaleigh, stood there in white cashmere, pretending to cry while clinging to her fiancé, Ambrose—the man who had once been mine. They all treated me like a volatile junkie, refusing to acknowledge that Kaleigh was the one who planted the drugs in my bag three years ago. They wanted to believe I was broken so they wouldn't have to feel guilty about the "wellness retreat" that was actually a torture chamber. I sat in the dark of that shed, feeling the cooling gel on the cigarette burns that covered my arms, and realized they had made a fatal mistake. They thought they had erased me, but I had returned with a roadmap of scars and a hidden satellite phone. At dinner, I didn't beg for their love. I simply rolled up my sleeves and showed them the price of their silence. As the wine spilled and the lies crumbled, I sent a single text to the only person I trusted: "I'm in. Let them simmer." The hunt was finally on.
