My Dark Prince: An Enemies-to-Lovers Romance (Dark Prince Road)

Ollie vB: Does anyone know someone high up at the New York Times?

Zach Sun: If this is about the anal beads jewelry store you wanted to open, I doubt they’d review it.

Ollie vB: Someone’s jealous.

Romeo Costa: You spelled disgusted wrong.

Ollie vB: No, it’s not about my anal beads startup. It’s something else.

Zach Sun: Is it hush money or intimidation, so they don’t run an article about you? Because that won’t work.

Ollie vB: Why must you always think the worst about me?

Romeo Costa: Uh, because we’ve known you more than five minutes?

Zach Sun: Farrow says you and Briar made out in the kitchen.

Ollie vB: I don’t kiss and tell.

Romeo Costa: According to Dallas, you did a lot of telling without doing any of the kissing. Is it true that you are not a lothario?

Ollie vB: JESUS CHRIST.

Ollie vB: Do women share EVERYTHING?

Zach Sun: Save for menstrual pads, I think so.

Romeo Costa: I wouldn’t put it past my wife to be that kind of an oversharer, too.

Zach Sun: So, what’s the purpose of hooking up with your squatter?

Ollie vB: She is not a squatter. She is my fake fiancée.

Romeo Costa: Nah. You don’t get to use that trope when the girl in question doesn’t consent to being your fake fiancée.

Ollie vB: If I were you, I would not weigh in on the topic of consent.

Romeo Costa: That was entirely different.

Ollie vB: HOW?

Ollie vB: You dragged Dallas kicking and screaming and all but locked her away. Your whole relationship is one big Stockholm syndrome, my guy.

Romeo Costa: We’re a different genre.

Ollie vB: DIFFERENT GENRE?

Romeo Costa: Yes. I’m not a fuckboy, like you. I’m an emotionally damaged, dark alpha hero, who just needed a little guidance to fall in love.

Zach Sun: Someone dipped into his wife’s smut collection after hearing her rave about Briar’s smut-reading ex. Exactly how jealous were you?

Romeo Costa: Enough to crack open a spine … of a custom-bound Wattpad novel. Do you know what the kids are reading these days?

Romeo Costa: Never mind. Back to the fuckboy.noveldrama

Ollie vB: First of all, I’m a fuckMAN, thank you very much.

Ollie vB: Second of all, the only guidance you need is a map to the nearest prison. You kidnapped that girl.

Romeo Costa: Well, she seems content enough to stay, and we’re even working on a second kid, so …

Ollie vB: Gross.

Zach Sun: @OllievB, what are you planning with the New York Times?

Ollie vB: Oh, you’ll just have to wait and see.
