Heir Of Deception An Unexpected Guest
My heart was hammering so hard I could feel it against the edge of the blade.“Hel…Helena. Trust me, you don’t want to do this.” My voice came out thin and quiet.She pressed the knife deeper. Blood trailed down my collarbone, warm against my cold skin.“Shut up! I’m not going down alone. I’m taking you with me.”The police were shouting somewhere behind her, trying to talk her down, but their voices sounded muffled, as if I were underwater. All I could hear was my own pulse. All I could feel was the cold steel parting my skin. This is definitely the end, I thought.Then I saw him. Lucien was walking toward us, slowly, his palms raised. His eyes were cold, his face a blank mask, but underneath it I could see the fear.“Helena.” His voice was flat, stripped of every emotion. “Let her go, and we can talk about reducing your sentence.”Helena laughed. “You’re the father-in-law. Now I understand, Aria. He’s hot. You always get the nicest things, don’t you?”Lucien’s gaze found mine and he

The room didn’t erupt the way I expected. Instead it went quiet, so quiet, I could practically listen to my own breathing. The reporters that were buzzing around earlier with their cameras, all stood still, frozen.I took a deep breath and continued, “For the past months, someone I trusted completely has been sending me threats. They’ve been stalking me, sending pictures and messages designed to make me believe I had no choice but to let them control my life.”A hand shot up somewhere near the front. I ignored it and kept going.“They posted things about me online that were never true. Rumors about my personal life, stories meant to make me look reckless, unstable and undeserving of the life I built. I let it happen for a long time because I was afraid of what would come out if I fought back. But right now—” I paused, looking at the faces of the reporters.“I’m not afraid anymore.”“Who is it?” Someone called out from the crowd.“Everything is being handled by the police now. I’ve han

“No!” I yelled. “I..I’m not decent. I’ll come meet you at the terrace in twenty minutes.” The lie flowed out of my mouth like I've been practicing for years.Micah was quiet for a moment, then he said, “Very well then. I’ll be waiting.”I heard his footsteps retreating and slumped against the wall, my breathing heavy. I peeked a look at Lucien and found him staring back at me with so much intensity.“Get out.” My tone was harsh, harsher than I intended.Lucien looked at me with his brow raised, not even a shred of remorse in sight. And then, he sighed,“This is going to happen again, Aria.”“No, it won’t. I won't allow it.” I shook my head vehemently.“You just witnessed it, we let this fester till it consumed us. We are both in trouble now.”“Don’t you feel bad for Micah at all? He is your son!”“And that’s the reason I've been holding back this long. Because he is my fucking son! All you had to do was to appear before me wearing these flimsy pajamas and all the control I th
Heir Of Deception What Have I done?
****Rated 18+ I stared at Helena’s name on Asher’s screen until the letters stopped making sense as a word and just became a shape, something I couldn’t look away from and couldn’t process either. Five years of chocolate bars and late-night calls. All of it sitting on top of a woman who’d spent months posting malicious things about me and also sending me photographs designed to break me. “Aria.” Lucien’s voice cut through the static in my head. His hand found my shoulder, steady, grounding. “Breathe.” “I gave a toast at her birthday last spring,” I said, my voice strange to my own ears. “I told a room full of people she was the sister I never had.” “People show you exactly what they want you to see,” Asher said, quieter than his usual self, which told me even he didn’t know what else to say. “Doesn’t make you a fool for believing it.” Stella crossed the room and wrapped both arms around me before I even realized I needed it. I’d been so lost in it, I hadn’t noticed her come
Heir Of Deception The Girl Who Never Forgave Me
Five years ago….I stood in front of the looming glass building, my stomach a chaotic knot of nerves. “You’ve prepared for this. You can do this. You chose this,” I chanted in my head as I stared at my reflection. I reapplied my gloss as I walked into the building, my head high. I walked to the reception and was met with a gorgeous blonde lady. Her hair, although in a bun, was styled to perfection. She looked up and smiled sweetly at me.“Good morning. How can I help you?”“I’m here for the modeling casting. Here is my invitation letter.” I said, while handing her a paper.“Okay.” She said, typing away on her system. “You have submitted your portfolio via mail, right?”“Yes, I have.”“Alright. I just confirmed your appointment. The casting is on the third floor, the first room on your right.” She told me, her smile still present.I thanked her and took the elevator to the third floor. Another blonde lady, her hair styled in a similar bun, ushered me to a waiting room where other la
Heir Of Deception The Nice, Easy-Going Helena
Lucien didn't say anything for a long moment, that was the part that scared me more than anything. Lucien always had something to say, a command, a correction, a low cutting remark for Asher. The silence felt like watching a held breath. When he finally looked up, his jaw was a hard flat line I recognized from the night at Stella’s door. He led me out of Asher’s office and we entered the elevator and he pressed the button to the roof terrace. The elevator ride up was awkward and quiet, the doors opened and Lucien walked me out. “Explain.” That was not a question, it was an order.“I may be wrong,” I said quickly. “It’s a feeling. But it fits, Lucien. He knows and loathes me enough to pull a stunt like this.” “Hmm.” Lucien looked to be deep in thought. “I want his address. Right now.” “I can take you there.” I told him.“No, Aria. You’re staying. God help me, Aria. You don’t want to test me right now.”I really do not like his tone. I narrowed my eyes at him, “No. You do not
