================== WARNING ==================== This is a very explicit story and contains strong language. If you are offended by that kind of content, this story may not be for you. No matter what you read in my stories I am strongly for practicing safe sex and using protection. Also, I support only consensual relationships where all participants are safe. ======================================================= Fortunately, after God knows how many friend-zoning, I was experienced enough not to fall apart, pulling one of those "Yeah, you missed your chance, I have a queue of potential husbands waiting for me, be jealous" acts instead. I mastered being a buddy to hot guys to the point I could write a handbook. For a moment there I was excited about starting a YouTube career as a buddy coach. The only time I had a boyfriend was when one of my friends took pity on me after my "I have feelings for you" speech, and decided to be with me for a while.

Octavia. That's the name the world knows her by. One word. One name. At seventeen, she was a girl who had her spotlight when she was whisked away to co-star in what would be an award-winning movie. From that moment on, she had never strayed away. Now, at 24, Octavia is a star and has found herself in multiple productions. As she finds herself in Milan, Italy for a new and upcoming movie she is cast in, she crosses paths with Caleb Henderson, the famous writer known to the world as Romero Henderson. However, as the production of the movie begins, Octavia immediately decides her opinion of Caleb. She doesn't like him. She borderline hates him. She hates how annoying he is. She hates the stupid, random topics he always brings up. She hates how he almost always cuts her off whenever she's speaking. She hates how attracted she is to him. I exhaled, trying to rub the tiredness off my face with my hands. I looked down at his shadow on the ground to him. His face looked as if it was glowing from the sun, his eyes narrowing from the brightness. I let my gaze trail from the exposed tattoos on his arms to the stupid smile that was still on his face. "Why are you like this?" For a moment he didn't answer me. He simply glanced at me, knowing that I meant more in the five words. The smile on his face went from pure amusement to bitterness. It was something I had never seen before and I didn't think I wanted to see him smile like that ever again. He pivoted his head towards the sun once again and in a serious tone asked, "Would you have me any other way?" Cover: @EmSlough_
