Liana's POVWhen I was about to leave the room, it felt like I was doing so much already, especially with the makeup on my face, because it is totally unlike me to dress up like this on a normal day.“What were you thinking, Liana?” I asked myself curiously and placed my hand on my head. I was to look good; little did I know that I was making myself look stupid because I do not dress this well on a normal day.Thinking about it very well, I realized the actual reason why I dressed up so well today: it's because I was anticipating having a conversation with Jace today again, because last night my conversation went so well, and I was hoping that today we would be able to talk even more.I opened my closet again and changed my dress because I don't want to look stupid when I step out of the room. Alison is no longer here, so there's no point trying to dress up very attractively. I cleaned my face and changed my dress before I finally left the room.“My little princess, why are you dresse
Liana’s POVFor a moment I didn’t want to go back inside again because of the misunderstanding I had with my mom. I know that I said a lot of things that hurt, but I was only saying it based on the way I felt at that moment.There was a minute of silence between Jace and me, which gave me the opportunity to think clearly about the situation between Mom and me. I hate how I judge myself every time I open my mind to someone I know. Most of the time I end up saying a lot of things that might come out as being rude and hurtful, but they are just things that I have kept inside for a very long time.After thinking for a while, I decided to go back to the room because it was so cold outside and I needed to get warm before sleeping. While I was heading upstairs, Mom was still sitting on the couch in the sitting room, but I made sure not to look in that direction as I headed upstairs.I closed the room immediately after I got inside. There’s no way I’m letting her come here after that misunder
Liana’s POVI kind of felt guilty because of the way I handled the situation, and I made Jace look like that bad person. I was just irritated because he always advises me every time I am with a friend or having a conversation with someone, which is why I reacted the way I did.“Are you okay?” Mark asked me.I almost forgot that I was having a conversation with Mark because I was thinking of the way I insulted Jace.“Yes, I’m fine.” I responded with a faint smile on my face. When he said we needed to go somewhere, I thought he was going to take me to a fun place, but this place is not close to being fun at all. And now I regret coming here in the first place.“I used to come here when I still had my best friend here.” I was totally zoned out when I heard what he said because this has been the most boring place I have visited in this environment since I got here, and he used to come here with his best friend? Both of them must be a very boring bunch.“Ohh.” I have nothing else to say be
Jace's POVI was hoping that today we would get along even better, only to end up having a misunderstanding with her as usual. I can’t believe she is so unreasonable, and she allowed someone that speaks so badly about us to come into the house.Mark’s family and my family are sworn enemies, so I do not expect his relationship with her to be a good one because it might just be his way of trying to get close to us and not for a good reason.I could understand that also—then we were getting to know each other, and it wouldn’t be easy for her to keep her distance from him—but I expected her to take my side and not his side in the arguments, but she blindly supported him without thinking of how I would feel about her actions, which was really bad. For a moment there I felt very stupid.She is always doing this; even when I had a misunderstanding with Ezra, she took his side without thinking of how I felt about it. I guess you value being friends with them more than she values being friends
Liana's POVThe first day I had a conversation with him, he seemed like a very nice person and a genuine friend as well, but all of a sudden I started to get the bad energy from him because he continued saying a lot of horrible things about where I am staying without even thinking about how I feel about it.And now he is here to see me; the same place he said so many bad things about is where he is presently standing just because he wants both of us to hang out together.I decided to act okay and not behave somehow towards him because at the end of the day we decided to be friends, and having a conversation with him was very nice, so maybe I can look past the nonsense he said and just be friends with him.“I knew you wouldn't be expecting me here today, which is why I decided to come and pay you a surprise visit, and I'm happy I got you just the way I wanted.” I couldn't hold in the blush anymore because he was really smooth with his words, which is something that I would give him a t
Jace's POVAll through the party I was trying my best not to notice her presence here. I tried to be occupied with different things so that I wouldn’t notice her here, but it was very difficult for me to do that knowing that she was having a conversation with Mark. He is someone that we don’t associate with because the Royal family has a kind of past with his family, and he’s always speaking ill about them.I wanted to go there several times, but I stopped myself because I don’t want to have any conversation with Mark, and seeing her laugh with him is so upsetting.So the moment the party ended, I thought that was a perfect opportunity to leave with her.“Jace!” She yelled at the top of her voice, forcing her hand out of my grip. I was completely speechless; I didn’t know what to say when she yelled at me like that because I realized that I was really hurting her.“What were you two talking about?” I asked her. I really don’t know why I was asking her this question right now because I
