Tempting the Billionaire and His Heir

Alexa woke up to the sound of Nolan’s voice singing his latest song, “Echoes of You”. She smiled and pressed play again, letting the melody fill her ears. She couldn’t help but hum along with the chorus, “You’re the echoes of me, the echoes of you, and I’m lost in between, what’s false and what’s true.”

As she got ready for her day, Alexa continued to listen to the song on repeat, even while she was in the shower. She was so caught up in the melody that she didn’t even realize she was humming along with it until she stepped out and heard herself in the silence.

Alexa spent the whole day at school with Nolan’s song stuck in her head. She couldn’t focus on anything else, not even the lessons, and found herself humming the tune whenever she had the chance to, without even noticing it.

As the week passed by, Alexa was approached by a girl at break time. She was minding her own business, eating her meal when the girl came up to her chuckling. The girl pulled out a banner of Nolan and his band, which made Alexa smile.

The girl explained that the class she was in, as well as a handful of others, noticed how much Alexa loved Nolan’s band and wanted to surprise her with the banner. Alexa thanked the small girl and couldn’t help but feel a little giddy inside.

As Alexa came home, she hid the banner in her dresser with all of her accumulated albums that Nolan produced, as well as a brochure of BCI advertisement. She didn’t want anyone to know how much she was obsessed with Nolan and his music, especially since he was so famous.

Alexa walked inside her kitchen and saw her best friend, Jade, pouring herself a glass of wine. Jade offered her a glass too, and Alexa gladly accepted.

Jade then asked if Alexa was planning on telling Nolan about their son. Alexa confessed to Jade that there wouldn’t be any use, as she knew Nolan would ignore her. She added that she knew Nolan hated her and was only pretending in front of a crowd.

After Jade left, Alexa sat at the kitchen table, lost in thought. The idea of reaching out to Nolan was both exciting and terrifying. She had spent so many years keeping this secret and now she was considering opening up and potentially facing rejection.

But the thought of Anthony growing up without a father weighed heavily on her mind. She didn’t want to make the same mistakes as her own mother had.

Alexa took a deep breath and retrieved a pen and paper from a nearby drawer. She knew what she had to do. As she wrote the letter to Nolan, she poured out her heart and soul onto the page. She told him everything, from the day they had met to the day Anthony was born. She didn’t hold back any details, including the fact that she had kept their son a secret from him all these years.

It was a difficult letter to write, but it was also cathartic. As she wrote, Alexa realized just how much she still cared for Nolan. She had never stopped loving him, even after all this time.

Finally, after hours of writing and re-writing, Alexa sealed the letter and addressed it to Nolan’s home address. She placed a stamp on the envelope and dropped it into the mailbox outside.

The next few days were some of the most nerve-wracking of Alexa’s life. She couldn’t stop thinking about the letter and what Nolan’s reaction would be. Would he be angry? Would he want to meet Anthony? Would he want nothing to do with them?Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Alexa tried to distract herself by listening to music and spending time with Jade and Anthony. But no matter what she did, she couldn’t shake the feeling of anxiety that gnawed at her stomach.

Days turned into weeks, and still, there was no response from Nolan. Alexa was starting to lose hope. Maybe he never received the letter? Maybe he threw it away without reading it?
