Nyx's Pov

“Phew. That was a long fight.” I panted, sitting on the floor, my back against the wall and my legs spread outwards. My waist hurts so badly and it felt like my ribs were about to pop out of place, my vision was swimming as well, black spots filling it. If someone was to come right now, it might take only one move for them to’ kill me. However, standing up isn't an option for me, I was too tired to even move. But it seemed like the universe really hated me because about three seconds later, I heard footsteps, heavy footsteps which were coming towards me. I froze, my eyes instantly darting to the body at the door side, the corner of my lips twitching. If they saw the body, then they would know that someone had passed by and killed their people. I could barely move so what the heck am I going to do?

I clenched the dagger in my hand, clenching it so tightly that my knuckles were beginning to turn white. My only option was to stand up and fight if they came too near. And by th

  • From Truth To Lies    Chapter 122

    Chapter 122 Nyx's Pov I crashed into the house, opening the doors loudly. Alden was seated on the couch, his eyes narrowing the moment he met my eyes. “What's it?” “Actually, there's a lot of trouble which I may or may not have caused but the downline is, I need help. Cassandra and a few others have been captured by Marcello, an evil uncle.” I explained, shedding the outer clothes I wore that were already stained with blood. “Marcello?”“Yeah. I don't think we have time to stay here and explain but we need all the men we can get, there's no need to stay and plan to catch them off guard, they already know that we are going to come no matter what, it's better to just face them head on.” I murmured, running towards my room and taking out all the weapons I owned. Alden rose to his feet, jaw tight, “You were supposed to lay low, Nyx.” He growled, following me to the hallway where I was strapping on twin daggers to my thigh, “You promised you wouldn’t do anything reckless.”“I didn’t

  • From Truth To Lies    Chapter 121

    Chapter 121 Author's Pov Marcello stood at the head of the long, dimly lit hall, his fingers drumming impatiently against the armrest of his chair as he stared at the other council members who were sitting very quietly on their chairs. The flickering lights cast sharp shadows across his face, emphasizing the irritation in his cold, calculating eyes.The tension in the room was very thick, his subordinates shifting uneasily under his glare. The sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence as one of his guards stumbled in, breathless and shaken."My Lord, I… I have news to report.” The guard panted, bowing deeply as he rushed into the room. Marcello’s sharp gaze pinned him in place, “Speak and be fast about it. Do not waste my time.”The man swallowed hard, “The thing is… We found out that... That Nyx, she has escaped. She knocked out the others and escaped, along with Liam and Yasmin. We can't find those two as well. For a moment, silence hung in the air. Then, with a sudden moveme

    Chapter 120Nyx's Pov I stared at Yasmin, blinking, "Your men?"She smirked, "Did you really think I wouldn’t have my own people in this whole situation? The moment I heard that Marcello was coming, I asked some people to infiltrate his guards. I wanted to come and warn you but it was too late, we had already been put into house arrest.” Liam shifted beside her, "Marcello doesn’t know we’ve compromised his men, which gives us the advantage. But we need to move fast. If he realizes something is wrong, he’ll change the security around the mansion."I glanced back at the ongoing fight. Yasmin’s planted guards were making it look real, striking down Marcello’s loyalists and drawing attention away from the inside."Alright, so what’s next?" I asked.“We bypass them and then go to Alden, he should be able to help us take control of the houses back. It won't take long for us to leave the main mansion to the outer part, though it might take longer as the outside may be more guarded than it

    Chapter 119 Nyx's Pov“I know but how the hell are you going to leave this place without being spotted. There are men everywhere.” Alexandra muttered furiously. She had been whispering since we started talking about how to escape. I didn't say anything, just motion med towards the window. Cassandra's eyes narrowed, "You're not seriously thinking of escaping through that window, are you?"I walked over to the small, barred window on the far side of the room. It was high up, but nothing I couldn't handle. The bars were old, rusted at the edges. With enough force, they could be broken."I don’t think it. I know it." I turned back to face them, "Stay put. I’ll get myself out."Valeria gave me a doubtful look, "How do you plan to…?"I didn’t answer. Instead, I climbed onto the ledge and pressed my hands against the bars. With a sharp exhale, I pulled. The metal groaned in protest, but I kept going. My arms trembled with the effort, my fingers aching, but then a loud snap and the bar bro

  • From Truth To Lies    Chapter 118

    Chapter 118 Nyx's Pov “It's true. What you were thinking… Cassandra is your mother.” Alexandra said, handing me the reports. I opened it quickly, going through it. A smile subconsciously rested in my lips but it was short-lived as Valeria crashed into the hideout as I had come to call it, panic written so vividly on her face. “What's wrong? Why do you look like that?” “They found it! He's back! That person is back!” She said, her voice shaking. “What are you talking about? What did they find? And who is back? Speak clearly and stop going about in riddles, Valeria! Speak!” “They found Aunt Cassandra. Uncle Marcello is back, and he has captured Cassandra.” “What?!” Alexandra turned her head back so fast that it felt like her head was going to fall off her neck, “He wasn't supposed to come back until after everything was over! How did he…?” “Now that's a very good question, isn't it?” Alexandra was cut off by a very unfamiliar voice. I glanced at the person who spoke from the co

  • From Truth To Lies    Chapter 117

    Chapter 117 Nyx's Pov “They knew that if my mother had twins, the future of the clan would be secured. The elders would never challenge her reign if there were two heirs ready to take over. But if something were to happen to us…”I exhaled sharply, “Then the succession would be thrown into chaos.”“Exactly.” Cassandra folded her arms, “My uncles, desperate for power, came up with a plan. They wanted to eliminate one of us to weaken my mother’s claim. But something went wrong. My mother found out about the plot but at that moment, due to my father taking control, my mother didn't have enough power so she announced to the clan that only one of us had survived birth. And that ‘one’ was me.”I blinked, “Wait, hold on. She just… hid you?”Cassandra’s lips pressed into a thin line, “I was raised in secret. Hidden away, protected, but also erased. My mother believed that if the clan thought I was dead, my uncles would stop their attempts to kill me. For years, I was a ghost, existing in th
