Introduction

Ares Collin
Ele é um arquiteto que vive a vida ao máximo. Dinheiro, fama, mulheres... tudo o que ele quer, ele sempre consegue. Você pode considerá-lo um cara de sorte que sempre tem tudo na vida, menos o verdadeiro amor. Ele tenta encontrar o amor verdadeiro, mas desistiu disso porque está cansado de procurar a pessoa certa.

Roseanne West
Romancista, mas nunca teve nenhum relacionamento e não acredita no amor. Ela sempre se afasta dos homens e acredita que morrerá virgem. Ela até publica todos os seus romances sob pseudônimo porque nunca quer ser reconhecida.

No aniversário de 25 anos de Roseanne, ela decidiu beber até ficar completamente bêbada. No dia seguinte, ela acordou na cama de alguém, significando que perdeu sua virgindade contra sua vontade. Ela não chorou nem se arrependeu, apenas ignorou, pois não havia motivo para chorar, já que foi apenas uma noite. Sendo a pessoa fria que é, ela simplesmente foi embora sem se importar com quem dormiu, como isso aconteceu ou por que estava lá. Antes que pudesse sair sem deixar rastros, o homem com quem dormiu a pegou bem antes de ela entrar no elevador, e é aí que sua história de amor começa.

Chapter 1

Roseanne West

Eu estiquei meu corpo inteiro depois de ficar sentada no chão por 4 horas seguidas para terminar meu último romance. Depois de muito pensar e debater comigo mesma sobre como terminar a história de amor deste livro, acabei dando aos personagens um final bonito em Paris com uma proposta romântica, como em todo romance por aí.

Saí do meu quarto para fazer um café e caminhei em direção à varanda para ver as lindas luzes noturnas da cidade de Nova York. Bebi meu café devagar para não queimar a língua e me sentei no meu puff, olhando para o céu, esperando ver estrelas bonitas hoje.

Na semana passada, minha editora, Amy, me perguntou se eu queria fazer um encontro com os fãs para me revelar ao público, mas eu recusei na hora. Ela disse que muitos dos meus fãs pediram para conhecer a famosa 'Elena Parker', mas por mais que eu adore interagir com eles, me revelar ao público está fora de questão. Tenho me escondido desde que minha mãe morreu, e isso foi há 7 anos. Tenho tentado superar isso, mas acho que ainda não consigo seguir em frente.

Para ser honesta, não consigo lidar com algo assim, não consigo lidar com corações partidos, morte e tudo que envolve separação. Não consigo lidar com isso, por isso não quero me conectar com as pessoas, porque para mim, no final das contas, todos vão embora e nunca mais voltam.

Foi por isso que criei 'Elena Parker', ela é famosa, louca por amor e uma ótima romancista com 5 livros de romance mais vendidos de todos os tempos. Para mim, fingir ser Elena Parker era um escudo. Eu queria me esconder do mundo, mas ao mesmo tempo queria que o mundo me notasse.

De repente, meu telefone tocou e eu me levantei do puff, voltando para dentro. Peguei o telefone e olhei para a tela, vendo que meu irmão, Stefan, estava ligando. Apertei o botão verde e coloquei no viva-voz.

"Sim, sua majestade." Respondi em um tom sarcástico.

"Não me venha com esse tom, mocinha." Ele resmungou imediatamente.

"O que você quer?"

"Vamos jantar juntos amanhã, é seu aniversário." Ele disse animado.

"Estou ocupada."

"Vou te buscar às 7 e é melhor você se arrumar porque vamos ter o jantar mais chique para o seu 25º aniversário. Papai vai direto para o restaurante, então você não pode reclamar disso, mocinha." Ele disse e eu suspirei.

"Pare de me chamar assim..." Resmunguei.

"Paro, se você concordar em jantar conosco."

"Tá bom."

"Te vejo amanhã." Ele disse e desligou a ligação. Coloquei meu café na mesa e liguei a TV. Conectei meu Netflix à TV para assistir meu filme favorito de todos os tempos, De Repente 30.

Antes de terminar o filme, adormeci no sofá. Esse é meu hábito, consigo dormir em qualquer lugar e em qualquer situação. Acordei porque alguém tocou a campainha. Levantei imediatamente e caminhei até a porta. Abri e encontrei um bolo da minha editora. Peguei e trouxe para dentro.

É só mais um ano, aniversário não significa nada para mim. É apenas o dia em que sua idade aumenta um dígito. Caminhei em direção ao meu quarto com meu telefone e já havia toneladas de mensagens dos meus fãs no meu Instagram me enviando amor pelo meu aniversário. Meu pai e meu irmão também deixaram uma mensagem, mas vou responder a eles mais tarde.

Voltei a dormir porque essa é uma das vantagens de ser escritora. Você pode escrever e descansar quando quiser.

Acordei novamente e já eram 5 horas da tarde. Levantei e me arrastei até o banheiro. Tomei um banho e me sequei rapidamente. Enrolei meu cabelo e fiz um coque baixo. Coloquei meus brincos favoritos e depois fiz minha maquiagem. Caminhei até o meu closet e decidi usar meu vestido longo preto com uma fenda na perna esquerda.

Verifiquei a hora e já eram 6h45. Peguei meu telefone e xinguei ao ver a bateria. Peguei meu power bank e coloquei para carregar. Peguei minha bolsa Gucci e coloquei todas as minhas coisas dentro. Saí e coloquei meus saltos pretos da CL.

Meu telefone tocou e eu sabia que era meu irmão. Saí de casa e fui direto para o saguão. Vi o carro do meu irmão estacionado em frente ao saguão e ele abriu a janela com um sorriso de canto. Entrei no carro e coloquei o cinto de segurança imediatamente.

"Feliz aniversário, maninha." Ele disse enquanto dava um tapinha na minha mão e eu assenti.

"Obrigada."

"Você sabe... você deveria arranjar um namorado este ano." Ele sempre dizia isso todo ano.

"Apenas dirija..." Eu disse friamente.

"É por isso que você nunca tem um namorado, Rosie. Você precisa viver, parar de se trancar no seu quarto." Revirei os olhos.

"Cala a boca... é meu aniversário, então não me dê sermão sobre minha vida ou eu volto para casa." Resmunguei friamente e sim, sou assim fria com meu irmão, mas ele nunca entende.

"Tá bom..." Ele disse e de repente tentou tirar algo do bolso. Quando conseguiu, colocou o pequeno envelope na minha frente.

"1.000 dólares para você se divertir e ficar bêbada... vá curtir e viver a vida." Ele disse enquanto me entregava um cheque.

"Eu tenho meu próprio dinheiro."

"É meu presente de aniversário para você, aceite." Ele disse e eu peguei. Coloquei na minha clutch e depois de 15 minutos de carro, chegamos ao restaurante. Entramos e Stefan disse o nome dele ao garçom, que nos levou para a sala privada. Ela abriu a porta para nós e meu pai já estava sentado lá.

"Oi, torta de abóbora, feliz aniversário." Ele disse enquanto me abraçava e beijava minha testa.

"Obrigada, pai." Sorri para ele e todos nos sentamos. Pedimos nossa comida e depois disso meu pai colocou uma pequena caixa na minha frente.

"Seu presente de aniversário, abra." Ele sorriu e eu olhei para Stefan por um momento antes de abrir a caixa preta. Abri e automaticamente fiquei boquiaberta.

"Papai..."

"Encontrei quando estava limpando meu quarto. Estava na minha gaveta e pensei que você gostaria de tê-lo."

"Obrigada." Sorri amplamente e olhei para o colar. Era da minha mãe, era o colar favorito dela. Pedi a Stefan para colocá-lo em mim.

"Eu sei que você sente muita falta da sua mãe e já se passaram 7 anos. Você deveria voltar a ser a velha Rosie, não acha?" Meu pai me perguntou em um tom muito cuidadoso.

"Não é fácil e eu não acho que consigo."

"Que tal você apresentá-la ao filho dos seus amigos, pai?" Meu irmão perguntou e eu bati forte no braço dele.

"Eu não preciso de um namorado." Resmunguei friamente para ele.

"Essa é uma boa ideia. Quero dizer... eles não precisam ser seu namorado, que tal encontrar um amigo?" Meu pai sorriu e eu balancei a cabeça.

"Não, obrigada." Eu disse e depois disso houve uma batida na porta antes do garçom trazer toda a comida. Fiquei meio feliz por ter decidido ir jantar com a família porque realmente sinto falta do meu pai e do meu irmão, mas é difícil para mim expressar isso.

I paused at the ajar conference room door, attempting to balance the tray of coffees. Creedon was my new boss, now also my boyfriend. I listened at the door.

“Where is that slut of yours, Creedon? Must be a hell of a lay. The coffee is going to be cold,” Michael complained. “What's the point in keeping her around? She's not even your breed.”
Not his breed?
“You know me, I like nice accessories, Besides, she is smarter than she looks."
An Accessory?
“Stop toying with the girl. You're letting her get too close to us. Not to mention the scandal you’ll have with the press once they realize she's a poor country girl. America will fall in love with her, you will just crush them when you’re done with her. Poor Image...” The sound of fits hitting the table silenced the room.

“She’s mine! She is no concern of yours. I can fuck her, breed her, or cast her aside, remember who's in charge here. “If I want to use her as a cum bucket, I will." His anger explosive.
Breed me? Cast me aside? Cum bucket? I think not!*

“She is pretty, but she’s of no value to you, Creedon. A pebble in a sea of diamonds, darling. You can have any woman you desire. Fuck her out of your system, and sign off on her,” Latrisha spat. “That one is going to become a pain in your ass. You need a bitch that will submit.”

Someone, please, come mop up the word vomit this woman has just spewed.

“I have her under control, Trisha, back the fuck off.”

**Control? Oh, hell naw! ** He hadn't met the take no bullshit southern bitch I could be.

Rage brewed as I elbowed open door.

Well, here goes everything.
