While Bellatrix forced down her second scoop of food, Damien watched her, eyes narrowed and a flickering of amusement slithering across his expression.

Clever, he thought, turning to face his own empty plate. Even though she's lied, she'd manipulated Regina using what she knew would hurt her the most.

Recalling the look on Regina's face before she stormed off, he nodded, impressed.

It worked like a lucky charm.

"You're not going to ask why I lied?" Bellatrix spoke softly, her voice cutting through the silence that had placed a veil down between the two of them.

Damien glanced at her. Although she wasn't looking his way, he could tell that she was watching, observing and waiting for his answer.

He shook his head. "No. Not unless you want me to."

She finally met his gaze, staring at him for a few seconds before she looked back at her plate, the corners of her lips tugging upwards slightly.

"You're good at pretending."

He gave a shrug. "When you live in a society like ours, it's a skill

    Bellatrix woke up to the faint sound of water coming from the bathroom.For the first minute or so, she didn't move. She stared at the ceiling, with only one thought going through her mind.Her night had been totally horrible.She tossed and turned most of it, Damien's words replaying in her mind like some overheard music that she could seem to turn off. By the time she felt exhausted, truly exhausted, the sky was already dancing with light.And if she was to accurately guess how long ago she'd fallen asleep...She glanced at the digital clock on her nightstand. The white numbers stared back at her; 8:39 AM.That was approximately 3 hours ago.She'd only gotten 3 hours of sleep.Great.Sighing, she pulled the duvet off her body and sat up, leg handing out of her bed. Her eyes travelled in the direction of the couch and she found it empty.No Cillian, just a blanket neatly folded.Her eyes drifted towards the bathroom, then after a few seconds, she looked away, sighing heavily and reac

    Surprise washed over the table in two waves.First, the silence before the storm. Everyone was stunned, eyes wide mouth hanging agape as they stared at Sarah.Then came the second wave, the whispering. Heads turned, mouths moved and somewhere through the growing chatters, Sarah heard it, the sound of a camera shutter.That was enough snap her out of her dazed state and out of the blues—"Ahh!"She shrieked, the sound cutting through the whispers that were floating around the table. The sound of her chair screeching against the floor followed shortly after as she stood up, bumping into the table and nearly knocking the chair down.She turned to face Bellatrix, so sharp that some particulars of the soup slipped off her hair. Through her soaked hair, she glared, or at least, tried to."You...how dare you do this to me–""Don't paint me to be the bad person now," Bellatrix said, her voice flat, almost sounding bored, th

    Twenty five minutes, two changes in outfits, one internal debate on whether she should go down for dinner or not and a single growl from her stomach, later, Bellatrix walked into the restaurant situated a five minutes' trek away from the resort.Nathan was the first to spot her, waving cheerfully at her before she rushed up to her."Miss Bellatrix," he greeted, grinning from ear to ear as usual.Seeing his cheerful attitude eased some of Bellatrix's bad mood. She smiled softly at him."Mr. Thomas was just about to send someone up to get you," Nathan pointed at the man who was already approaching them.Less than a minute later, he stood in front of Bellatrix and gave a polite bow. "Mrs. Laurent,"He greeted, but Bellatrix's eyes twitched at the title.She was growing to hate it by each passing day. She really needed to act fast and get rid of it.Tucking the disturbing thought to the back of her mind, she forced a smile.

    After Damien left, Bellatrix tried sending Avery a couple more messages and tried calling, all of which went unanswered.With anxiety slowly creeping into her chest, she could help but pace the room while biting on her fingernail.Why aren't they answering? She thought, throwing another glance at her phone which now lay on the bed.Could something have happened to them? To Charlie?Her thoughts spiraled, her chest felt tight and before she knew it, she'd chewed too deeply into her fingernail.A hiss escaped her lips and she quickly withdrew her finger. Staring down at the red that seeped through the wound, she sighed.She had to stop, otherwise, she would end up injuring herself.Glancing back at her phone, Bellatrix hesitated, but eventually picked it up and dialed a number.It rang for a long time before it went to voice mail.Exhaling heavily, she buried her face into her palms.Why weren't they answering?

    Sara took one look around the room Regina would be staying in, as she walked in, and she frowned."This...this is your room?" She asked, her eyes scanning the room once again, as if doing so would magically make the interior of the room morph into something it wasn't.The room wasn't all that bad. A comfortable king size bed was pushed against the far corner, a wardrobe directly opposite it, and a balcony window beside. The room had a homey feel to it, any one would have appreciated such a place.But Regina and Sarah weren't just anyone. They considered themselves to be the top of the top, the best, one could say. So, to be given a room so average, nothing like the master's bedroom they'd both dreamt of, felt like an insult in their faces.Behind Sarah, Regina brushed past her, bumping shoulders with her. She was pissed and didn't bother to hide it.She tossed her luggage on the bed with a huff and dropped down beside it, gnawing on her lower lip a
