Almost:  Chapter 7

DISCLAIMER:  All characters belong to Pixelberry Studios, except characters unique to my story.  Those belong to me. ;)

PAIRINGS:  Liam x Riley (MC)

SUMMARY:  Riley Lawson didn’t believe in second chances, until one night a face from her past makes a shocking reappearance in her life.

Need to catch up? Check out my Master List.

06/08/2020 - Ahhh here it is!  A long awaited updated.  I’m always so busy, but with summer starting and some much needed vacation days on the horizon, I’m updating everything.  If Only & TTS will be coming along shortly. :)

Thank you! As always if you want to be tagged, send me a message!

Chapter 7

It didn’t take long for Riley to jump into action when Liam agreed to her offer to see the Statue of Liberty.  She started to text furiously on her phone, and when she wasn’t getting a response quick enough, she resorted to actually calling up the friends she knew would still be up at that hour.  After all, she lived in the city that never slept, and a good chunk of her friends were in line with that mentality.  At first it seemed like she wouldn’t have any luck making her plan happen, but eventually one of her friends pulled through.  Matt Dennison had owed her a favor from ages ago.  She had never expected to actually stake a claim on said favor, but here she was at some god awful hour staring at the boy that had stolen (and ultimately broken) her heart eight years ago, and all she wanted to do was make his dream come true.  So, desperate times called for desperate measures and she had absolutely no qualms about waking Matt up from his beauty sleep.

Remember Me

A/N: I received this as a request from @forthebrokenheartedthings (she had a dream after watching The Notebook…and I’ll leave it there, lol) and I absolutely loved the idea! I thought the idea would go better with a more established pairing of mine who had some history (and I broke my own heart doing so).

A/N 2: Huge thanks to @dcbbw for beta reading! Love you!

Warnings: None really; little bit angst and fluff.

Let Her Go, Epilogue

Note to Readers: I just want to give you all a HUGE thank you for giving this story a chance. As most of you know, I am one if approximately 3 people who stan Bertrand Beaumont 🤣😂. When I started this story I was really excited about it, but I honestly prepared myself to have five people begrudgingly read it. It has meant so much to me that you have loved, screamed and offered to push Savannah off a cliff with me along the way. Hope you enjoy this very self indulgent ending💕

Disclaimer: I do not own TRR characters they belong to Pixelberry

Papa Bear and Maxwell sat on the floor of the Beaumont estate playing and reading with Bartie and Lucie while Bertrand and Brielle sat on the sofa. Brielle had her long legs tucked under her as she leaned her head against Bertrands chest. He was smiling as he watched Lucie slap at the book in front of her while Papa Bear explained the pictures, giving her the names of each animal in French and English.

Just then the doorbell rang and Maxwell jumped up, "I'll get it." He wandered back a moment later with Alexandria, Liam, Drake and Pam. Drake knelt down to Bartie, "Hey little man!" He gave him a high five and then a tickle. "You ready to carry that ring down the aisle next week?" Bartie grinned nodding. "Daddy got my suit!" He beamed. "Awesome! Your gonna be the best ring bearer ever!" Drake stood, smiling at his fiance. 

"He better be cute" Alexandria added. "He needs to take the focus off of me." She huffed. "Oh stop, you'll be beautiful." Pam assured. "Besides, the designer said she can take your bridesmaid's dress out...again" Alexandria narrowed her eyes as they all laughed.

"Your eight months pregnant love, you're beautiful and glowing" Liam kissed her hand lovingly as he guided her over to a chair.

"So have you heard if Savannah is coming to the wedding?" Drake shook his head. "She's not coming." He shrugged, as Pam rubbed his back. "Neither will my mom. They both said it would be better not to see the little guy and make things confusing since Savannah signed over custody." 

Maxwell frowned. "I'm sorry Drake." Drake waved him off. "It was her choice to leave, Max. She didn't want to be an adult and fend for herself, so she went running back to Texas. Her and my mom deserve each other, far as I'm concerned." 

"How is the new job, Maxwell?" Liam questioned, changing the subject. Maxwell smiled brightly. "It's awesome!" He bounced excitedly. "It's only part time, but the club is right down the street from our apartment. They said I'm the best Deejay they've had. And Drake and Pam watch Bartie when I work since they're close by, so it works out perfect." 

Drake grinned, "We love having the little dude. Bartie needs Uncle Drake time." He ruffled his hair as Bartie swatted him away.

"So you like living on your own?" Alexandria questioned. Maxwell nodded. "It's what I needed. Bertrand and Brielle offered to let me stay, but it just didn't feel right." He shrugged, sharing a knowing look with Papa Dumont. "I'm just grateful I had the support and help to get out on my own." Papa winked, before going back to reading with Lucie.

Just then there was a knock at the door. "Oh, that's my other bridesmaid." Pam jumped up rushing toward the door. "You haven't met her yet, Maxwell. She's a commoner, like me. But you'll be walking down the aisle with her."

Maxwell nodded absentmindedly, as Pam opened the door, excitedly greeting a petite brunette. She walked into the room, grinning. "Maxwell, this is my friend, Erin." Maxwell's eyes widened, his heart fluttering in his chest as he reached his hand out to greet her. 

"Hi Erin...I'm Max."

“Why did Lord Tariq leave?"  Liam questioned. "Are you implying that Lady Samantha and Lord Tariq left, together?"  He challenged. Bastien shook his head sadly. "If I may speak to you in private, Your Highness?"  Liam looked around at his friends, his family. "No, Bastien. Anything you need to say, can be said in front of everyone.  Drake and Liv, they already know about my father.” Bastien looked around nervously. “Well, Your Highness,” he exhaled, “Liam.  I must be honest with you. Your father approached me with a rather odd request.” His eyes were trained at the ground. “He asked that I arrange for Lord Tariq to enter Lady Samantha’s room and that he be led to believe Lady Samantha was wishing for him to make an advance on her.” Liam stiffened. “Go on.” “He also asked that a photographer be positioned to capture the moment."

“What is going on ?” Bertrand immediately stepped back, putting space between himself and Savannah.  He bowed low, “Queen Alexandria. I was not aware you would be coming by.” She shot Bertrand a warning look, her gaze then turning to Savannah who was wearing a cocky smirk.  “Your Majesty, to what do we owe the honor of your presence? Not that we are not always pleased to have you to House Beaumont.” she grinned sweetly.

Drake and Jameson avoided each other the remainder of the day. Liam left after helping Jameson to clean up the kitchen and returned, reluctantly to the Palace. He didn’t bother trying to talk to Drake, knowing that time to cool off from whatever was bothering him would lead to a more productive conversation later. 

Maxwell walked into House Beaumont just before dinner to a quiet and tense atmosphere. He walked to Jameson’s room and found her door open. She was sitting on her bed flipping through her phone. “What’s with the negative vibes?” He questioned with a shutter. “Hi Max!” Jameson greeted. “Drake’s just extra Drake today.” She rolled her eyes. “You two get into it again?” She nodded, “What else is new?”. Maxwell sighed. “Well, I have a list of tasks from Bertrand for me to go over with you before the derby. He looked over the list. How about we start with wine tasting?” Jameson grinned. “I am always up for drinking wine!"

Jackson held her hand out as Drake stared in shock. “Riley is your…you’re my…you’re mine? I mean I’m your….?” She nodded, dropping her hand, looking away. “I’m your daughter.” She offered nervously. Drake swallowed hard, staring, so many thoughts swirling in his head. He could feel his hands quivering as he stared at her, unable to look away. “C..come in?” He pushed out quietly. She nodded, offering a shy smile. He ran a shaky hand through his hair, exhaling.

Later that night, Brielle was sitting on the edge of her bed in Rousillon, rubbing lotion into her legs when she heard a gentle knock at her door. She opened it to find a grinning Bertrand wearing pajama pants and a fitted white t shirt. She had never seen him so dressed down before. He looked so soft and warm, it made her heart flutter. He was wearing  a wide grin on his face that made Brielle giggle.

Oh Drake” Riley moaned as Drake’s hands moved up her arms, his fingers intertwining with hers. Her face glowed in the warm candle light and he would never forget how beautiful she looked in that moment. He captured her lips as he continued to rock his body against hers, the feel of their bodies pressed together as one.  He could taste the mint in her tongue, the cherry from her lip gloss. He pulled away breathless as she wrapped her legs around his waist. He could feel his breath hitch, as he sunk deeper into her. “I love you, Riley.” He felt the tension building in her body. “I love you too, Drake.” She moaned out, her body pulsating around him. “Oh Drake… DRAAKE!”

Heavier Things Ch. 13: Did I Sail Through or Drop My Anchor Down?

thanks for the banner, @drakewalkerisreal

Series Premise: What happens when the king can’t take no for an answer on his marriage proposal?

Chapter Premise: Portavira and Castelsarreillan revisited. Some of those secrets everyone’s got are coming out. 

Pairing: Drake x MC (Alyssa Devereaux)

A/N: This is my first series, first AU, and IT. IS. DARK. Who knew, when I’m such a fluff-lover? The story begins and diverges from TRR Book 2, Ch. 16. I am afraid it might be the HOT MESS EXPRESS, but I’ll never know unless I try. I will be happy to tag anyone interested! (and I’ll remove you from tags if you hate it!)

This chapter kinda covers Book 3, Ch. 4, 5, 7, and 8, but this is all pretty wavery since we’re in AU land. Do not read anything I write if you’re not at least 18 years old.

Ummmm … so Hana and I both did a lot of research about the comedown effect of molly/ecstasy/MDMA. That’s bad stuff, y’all. Especially, like, if you didn’t know you were taking it. RIP serotonin. The day after is sometimes known as “suicide Tuesday.” soooooo yeah. Do not recommend.

Thank you, thank you, thank you to @dcbbw, @star-spangled-eyes, @emceesynonymroll, and @bbrandy2002, who’ve spent the last week reading and rereading and making suggestions, especially when I needed to fix some character interactions (love you, Enna!) and to Brandy for giving that last line we needed. 

Also, when any of you guys like and comment and reblog, I feel like I have wings! Thanks for reading my crap. You’re the BEST. Thank you for waiting a whole week for this. It’s definitely NOT worth the wait. lol xoxo

Some dialogue and all characters belong to Pixelberry except for my best girl Alyssa Devereaux.

Warnings for this series: Smut, mental illness, sexual assault, sexual harassment, murder, violence, gun violence, corrupt medical practice, illegal drug use, dubcon, possible major character deaths … God, I don’t even know what else. Language, always language. Do not read this if you’re under 18. Also, very misguided Liam warning if you are a super Liam stan. I’m trying not to make him Evil Liam, but it’s not going well at all.

Warnings for this chapter: Smut! 🍋🍋, always language, effects of illegal drug use, attempted sexual assault, violence, suicide ideation

Drake pulled Maxwell aside as they boarded the jet for Portavira. “Make sure you don’t say anything in front of Devereaux about hoping the plane crashes.”

“Wasn’t planning on it, since I apparently can’t even be honest about my goddamn sad feelings without everybody jumping down my throat!”

Drake pressed a thumb between his eyes. “You know her parents are dead, right?”

“Yeah.”

“They died in a small plane crash.”
