I pointed to the cardboard boxes under the table, "All packed. It's my last day." Then I continued packing quietly, my hands bathing in the soft orange glow of dusk that illuminated the place I called home for six years. The warm and familiar scent of carpentry, dried paint, and electric cable coatings filled my nostrils, sending a jolt of pain to my heart. Minutes must have passed before she spoke up: "Don't go, Edith." "Is there something else you need help with?" "No," she stepped closer and put one hand on my cardboard box, "I mean, don't leave the company. Not yet..." The stunned look on my face and my inability to speak must've made an impact on her, because I heard a word that I never thought would come out of her mouth. "...please." ----- When Edie, a twenty-something theater administrator, is offered the chance to interview for a promotion, she jumps at it. Except the board forgot to tell her that she's up against a Hollywood power couple gunning for the same job: Artistic Director of the Sydney Theatre Company. Cate Blanchett x OC. F/F. Enemies to lovers, slowburn, angst, fluff, eventual smut, the whole nine yards of human emotions.

The bedroom door was wide open. "So. It is you." It was barely 6:30pm, the room was dimly lit, and Cate was wearing a lavender nightdress, reclined on an upholstered chaise longue. A cigarette lay fresh in the ashtray on her nightstand, a flimsy wisp of smoke rising from the end. The image floored me. It evoked my early childhood memories of watching the first ever indie movies starring Gena Rowlands in the 70s, the rebellious and gritty spirit of them, and the reasons why I fell in love with cinema as a preteen. ----- An aspiring young film executive encounters Cate Blanchett at a prestigious screening. Financial interests prevent their relationship from becoming anything more than strictly professional. A 'sub' request changes everything. Cate Blanchett x OC. Contains a little smut, maybe fluff, and definitely Hollywood glamor.

[Cate x OC] She was losing herself and didn't know about it. I was lost and aware. When we finally found each other, to be off-course together, we weren't lost at all, suddenly. Two souls, incomplete, were now a whole. --- Basically a fanfic like my previous ones. Dramatic, lil bit of slow burn. However, there is a hint of something shady, but read and find out;) Like and comment<3

Cate Blanchett x Y/N (female) story You've recently befriended a new companion named Dashiell, and one day, he invites you to meet his family. To your astonishment, you can't believe who his mother is... (In this narrative, Cate and Andrew are divorced but maintain a genuinely positive relationship. I want to emphasize that my intention is not to show any disrespect to their marriage; I deeply respect them and hold a great deal of affection for both of them.) EDITED

"Have you ever been with a woman, Thalia?" Her deep voice sent chills rocketing up my spine. I picked at the skin of my nails, her question making me anxious, throwing me off guard. She waited patiently, genuine interest flashing in those blue eyes of her. The truth was I'd never been with a woman, I'd never been with anyone, period. I'd never wanted to be with anyone, then she came along and I hadn't wanted anything more than to be with her. Nothing else mattered. Except from the fact I couldn't be with her. "No," the word came out quietly, my eyes looking down at the polished wooden floor of her bedroom. "Ah," she said simply and then put down her glass of whiskey. "Would you like to be with a woman?" And she quirked a perfect eyebrow and smiled deviously at me. ~ Flung into a scandalous situation, torn between desires, morals and the need to write an interesting story. Thalia never did get anything she wanted easily. After all, involving herself with a celebrity was never going to be simple. ~ *WARNINGS* Contains: ~ Strong language ~ Sexual themes ~ Note: I fully respect Cate and Andrew, this is a work of pure fiction. No matter how their relationship is presented in this book they are still real people who love each other very much. Also the art/pictures in the cover are not mine, neither is Cate in case there was any confusion lmao. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this!!!

When world famous actress Cate Blanchett and rising star Alessandra are cast as toxic lovers in the controversial film "You Want It Darker", their mutual disdain feels all too real.

What starts as animosity becomes obsession - an irresistible pull toward each other's jealousy, manipulation, and passion. Each woman becomes a mirror for the other's darkness, their dynamic spiraling from dangerous to catastrophic.
