EMPIRE OF LIES Doppelgänger
ARIELTHE LION’S DEN11PMHidden in the center of the city, an underground bar for only serious businesses, like mafias, the Lion’s den was the best place for secret meetings. And for someone like me, I have a membership card, even though it’s extremely hard to get.For me, it was easy. It wasn’t the name Ariel which worked for me, but it was the work I did to make that name known. If someone else was Ariel, then that name wouldn’t be important. But it was me.It was me.It was me.I repeated it so many times till it stuck into my brain. My life wasn’t a lie. My identity wasn’t a lie. It didn’t matter what anyone told me. It didn’t matter what happened right now or in the nearest future, I was already the one and only Ariel D’Angelo. Since that night. I walked into the darkest part of the room, sitting on the thick cushion chair as I ordered a vodka. I didn’t like drinking it at times like this, but I needed it to clear my head or else, I could explode from the numerous thoughts rush
EMPIRE OF LIES Secrets
DELANOFor someone who claims she hates me and has no emotions, Ariel is pretty inconsistent with her words.She says one thing and does the other, in just a split second. How far does she want to take me before I start losing my mind concerning her? After what felt like an eternity, she finally pulled away from me, her eyes flickering round the amusement park in a second.She sighed, “They are no longer here.” Then, her eyes moved back to me. And they changed.Her lips parted slightly, “Huh…”“What’s going on?” I asked, running my tongue over my lower lip, to let her taste sink in. Or…to hold on to the last I might get of her.“It was my mistake. I’m sorry. Just conclude it…”“Was it a mistake?” My eyes narrowed, “Kissing me…was your mistake?”“It was unplanned. Something came up–““If I’m being used as your shield, I deserve to know thy, don’t I?”She scoffed, “It’s my secret, why do I have to tell you?” “Then, I’ll like a payment.” I closed the gap between us. “You not only stabb
EMPIRE OF LIES Stay still
ARIELSome people really act differently from how they looked…or from the stories heard about them. And an example of people like this…is Delano.“What are we doing here?” I asked, my eyes darting towards him.He shrugged casually, passing me an ice cream cone he’d just gotten from the seller, at an amusement park.“I assumed you must have come here a lot since you take care of the children in your father’s house.”“Why would you mention them?” I asked, my eyes narrowing. The children…were a sensitive topic and I would prefer to stay clear of them if we were having a discussion. Everything could be spoken about..except the children.“Don’t tell me you have a bad memory with the amusement park?” His brows shifted. “If you do, we could leave. I don’t mind.”It wasn't a mockery. Just…pure concern. I could see them in his eyes.I blinked, looking away as my tongue went down the ice cream. I needed all the sugar I could get right now.“Winter?”“What do you take me for? It’s just an amuse
EMPIRE OF LIES Lost
ARIELI push Delano away like he burnt me. So hard, he had to catch himself before he could crash into the cushion chair.Gritting my teeth, I said, “You must be out of your mind!”“What?” Delano shrugged, rubbing his fingers underneath his chin as he studied me calmly, without a flinch of fear or remorse in his eyes. Was I the only one feeling flustered by the things he had said?Realizing that, I stepped backwards slightly, feeling too aware of how the hairs on my skin rose up. His head cocked slightly, he was definitely enjoying this.“We are married. It’s such a pain we haven’t had our wedding night yet.”“Don’t speak of such nonsense with me. This marriage is strictly business.” I snapped and walked out of him, rushing up the stairs to my room.The moment the door closed behind me, my purse fell from my shaking hands. I hated this moment. And the fact that his words got to me. I hated it all.By the way…why were we the only ones living in this house?****“I want a maid.” I said,
EMPIRE OF LIES Unexpected dinner parade
ARIEL"Ariel. So," D'Leonardo cut the steak on his plate with precised measurement and concentration, you could tell he tortured people in this manner. His eyes moved up to me, "now that you are married to Delano, you can tell us why you tried to kill him at the party, can't you?"Everyone stared at me. His cousins and their parents, Colt and my father, even Delano. He has an expectant look on his face, like he wanted to see what I would use to cover up–but I wasn't stupid. Anyone could tell that D'Leonardo already knows the truth."He did business on my father's port, which is totally unacceptable," I said fiercely and I could see one of his cousins raised his eyes up, a smirk on his lips. I didn't care much about him. He seemed too stupid for me to bother. My age, maybe."Is?" D'Leonardo arched a brow, "Do you mean it's still inappropriate for him to do business there? I mean, you are married."I smiled skillfully, "Business should be separated from family. If Delano wish
EMPIRE OF LIES Family
ARIELI smiled with no lesser pretension than what D'Caprico threw to me. My smile was graceful and perfect like what I have been trained to be. However, I knew I could never fit into the perfect mafia family. Girls were meant to be docile, quiet, obedient, I was not that type. I was not trained for marriage, I was trained for war. And they would never understand that. Glad, my father hadn't forced me to submission like other empires did, but even that was my choice."How are you doing?" "I'm fine," I replied sweetly, placing my hand on Delano's with nothing less than a sinful smile, "Delano has been treating me fairly okay. Just a day after marriage and I feel good."Delano let out a slight scoff of amusement and my fingers tightened on his shoulders in a warning mark.He'd better stop that sh*t right now."That's good, considering the fact that you wanted to kill him, just a week ago. I can say you guys really changed sides pretty fast. How does your fa

DELANOWhen did D'Leonardo D'Caprico start to care about his son's life? It was something... unexpected and fake."How did it go?" Jay met me when I came out of the house, walking towards the car."Same old tale. He's trying to make me kill Ariel." I replied."Expecte

ARIEL"So....Sasha?" Asshole Colt looked at me, taking his eyes away from the road."I didn't think you'd come to my company. You should have given me a call." He said."How then would you know that I'm really interested in you? I prove through actions and not just words." I smiled at him and his l
