"Why did you hide it from me?" Her voice broke the room with all of its stillness.

"Hide it from you?" I ask, and she nods her head and bobs her body along. "What did I hide from you?" I ask. She turned to me, and her eyes were lined with tears such that they looked as though they were twinkling, but she was on the verge of tears.

"I overheard you and Theo yesterday. I don't know what you both are trying to hide from me; I just know that you told him not to tell me something," she said, and I felt bad instantly.

"Oh my goodness, you have misunderstood the entire thing. Is that why you are angry?" I asked, and she nodded.

"And before you can say it's nothing that I should have been worried about, I want you to know that hearing that you were intentionally going to keep something away from me did not sit well with me. It made me wonder if I was being honest with you or you, and if you did not see the need for honesty between us." She paused, but I could tell she was not done at al

  • NIRELLE    NOT FOR THE PRESS

    NIRELLEThe flashes of light from the door to the stage are blinding, almost too blinding, but I manage to deal with it because even though everything is spiralling out of control in the air, his hands in mine keep me grounded. It reminds me that the role of Mrs Vexley might be glamorous to the public, but I was still just his wife in whatever world. As I stand on the stage behind the podium, I finally see what Mr Wolfe looks like.Enoch sits in the middle with Mr Wolfe right beside him. Even after they had dragged each other all the way on the internet, they seemed to show solidarity. Maybe they needed it; after all, they were now up against the enemy they weren't aware they had put up for themselves.Cory sat right beside my dad on his right, while Mom stood next to Cory. I look at her face and Cory; either they are better actors at suppressing their emotions, or they had no idea what Enoch had done before now. Next to Mr Thanore are Cassian and his mother. Unlike the expression of

  • NIRELLE   NOT A BEAST

    LUCIEN"What took you so long?" Theo asked with a teasing, disgusting expression on his face as his gaze trailed from my face to Nirelle's face. He did not need to speak for us to know what he was thinking in that moment."Get your mind out of the gutter," I say, giving him a cold stare, but it seemed that he thought it was funny because he doubled over, cackling as he pressed his palm to his knees."Oh, come on, Theo, you did not need to paint that image in my head." Zane came into view, also dressed in a tailored black suit. It was different to see him in a suit, as Theo was the only one among us who wore a suit almost every day; it became pretty normal for us to see him in it. "That is my sister and my friend, and I am still not sure how I feel about it. So please don't make me think or imagine it."Nirelle was too quiet, and when I looked at her, she had a horrified expression on her face, and her cheeks were rosy red. She looked so tight as though she needed some air, or she was

  • NIRELLE   BEFORE THE WORLD SEES US

    LUCIENIt is finally the unveiling day, as Nirelle had been calling it. The day I finally step out of the shadows into the limelight, to stop fighting from inside and take my weapon on full display to destroy everyone. They all thought that this was the end? That I was going to back down? This was only the beginning for me, as I still had quite a lot to accomplish."Hey, handsome," Nirelle walked in from the closet, a bathing robe wrapped around her body firmly, and her hair wrapped in a towel as she walked to me. "Are you ready?" She stopped in front of me and eyed me from head to toe."Do you think I look ready?" I asked, and she pressed her finger to her chin and inspected me from head to toe."I think you need to change," she murmured to me, and I looked down at the suit I wore. Was something wrong with it? Why did she want to take it off?"But you chose this outfit last night," I say, and she nods."I thought it would look good on you; that's why I chose it, but at this rate, I w

  • NIRELLE   SHARES OF MY HEART

    NIRELLEI chew the risotto gently, the flavour bursting in my mouth. It was not as perfect as the chef's meal, but something about this made me feel different in my chest. As though it was about to explode and make a mess of the place. He insisted that we move to our bedroom. It felt weird to declare it as our room, but Lucien had wasted no time moving my things into the room, and even though I was yet to redecorate, it was ours.When we were done eating, we sat facing each other, sipping on some tea. "I think life is kind of unfair," I murmured with the teacup on my lip as I felt the hot steam touch my face."Unfair?" he asked, raising his eyebrow in confusion."You have never cooked before, and yet the meal you cooked seemed to be almost perfect." I was trying to inflate his ego as well as compliment him on the meal. "You seem to be perfect in everything.""Of course I am perfect; I am a Verlice," he said smugly with a smirk on his face. He could not even take my compliments with hum

  • NIRELLE    TOO CLOSE, NOT CLOSE ENOUGH

    LUCIENHer questions woke some kind of fear I was not aware I had in me. I was so used to hiding that I was no longer sure if I could face the world and be my true self."Of course," I say, trying not to make her worry about it. She already had a lot on her plate, so adding this to it was not in question."That is a lie," she said, glancing at me. She looked like she could see my heart and tell what I was thinking. "I know you feel afraid, and it can be okay to be afraid, but you might be glad that you did it.""Oh really?" I want to act as if I don't find her words comforting, but I am sure the extra smile on my face was telling a different story."I was afraid to come here, but I am glad that I did," she said as though she was trying to motivate me."You were afraid?" I asked, and she nodded. "You challenged me on your first night here," I say, and her face grows into confusion. "You don't remember? When you said firmly that you'd never sleep with me."I did not mean to bring up inti

  • NIRELLE   AN EXCUSE OR THE TRUTH?

    LUCIEN"It's wonderful that you are finally going public after all this time," said one investor in the meeting. I had kept them fully in the loop of everything I had been doing, and that was what kept me relevant to them."Yes, I agree; the world needs to see and behold the face behind the great Lucien Vexley. Even I can't wait," another chimed in.When I announced my intention to them, they all seemed to welcome the idea."You pulled the words right out of my mouth," another said, beaming with joy. In meetings like this, I always liked to have my camera switched off and allowed them the liberty of whichever they would prefer to do. I knew what they all looked like, and it was really a wonder that they chose to do business with me, even though they had no clue what my face was like. Maybe business was really not about what one looked like."There must be some kind of celebration of this effect," the first man who had spoken earlier said again. The door creaked open, and Nirelle stood
