As It Seems By Lily Kershaw Novels & Stories

She smiled faintly. “Alex, do you know her?” Hearing Caspian's voice, Lily’s smile suddenly disappeared and she said to Alex, “I can’t spare you enough of my time. The ceremony is still ongoing.” She side-stepped and went back to her seat. Alex shook his head, “No, I don't know her, but I like her.” He also followed suit. The netizens were already cooking up stories and trying to unravel what wasn't hidden. As for Celina, she didn't know why but hatred for Lily suddenly brewed in her heart.

Shasha had now turned into a calm and bright girl, no longer the gloomy and frightened girl whenever Senine saw her, and she didn't like that. “Oh, really? I think it's normal!” Lily answered while turning her face away. Try to be as cool as possible with Senine's questions. In fact, since that night, she felt strange every time Shasha greeted her. As if there was an urge in her heart to reply to Shasha's greeting. "Could it be that she's trying to get you by her side? Eyy, that sly girl!!”

I mimicked a lip sealing gesture and threw the imaginary key out of the window. "Look Kyra, we're not trying to be nosy.." this from Lily. "Well, we actually are being nosy Lils, Kyra we are ravenous for details. Absolutely ravenous! Who was it? Tell me his name and we'll definitely search it up. Lily, Kyra has that glow on her face. Bitch you got super lucky didn't you?" She clapped her hands gleefully like a schoolgirl I didn't fight the urge to roll my eyes. I rolled em twice.

“That's something I’m not sure if we’ll ever find out why because Alrick’s prophecy says the ritualistic members died.” “That could be a problem. Fine, we work with what we’ve got then. How do you think Jessie is taking this? I haven’t found a good time to approach this with her.” Lily moved to her bag and removed a couple of cosmetic bags, then disappeared into the bathroom. “She’s her usual self. If we’ve seen that before this. She’s living in fear. Not good enough, no training, no experience. I believe she doesn’t believe she’s worthy of talking to the goddess. That she's destined to fail everyone.”

This friendly, calm version of her feels wrong somehow. “Practice was good,” I say carefully. “We worked on some new plays for the upcoming game.” “That’s wonderful,” Lily says, standing up from the steps. “I’m sure you’ll do great in the game.” As she walks past me toward her car, I hear her humming quietly under her breath. The melody sounds familiar, but I can’t quite place it until I listen more carefully. She’s humming something about ashes. The tune is cheerful, but the words I can make out are dark and disturbing.

she replied softly, her voice tinged with a mixture of exhaustion and disbelief. Once again, the awkward silence descended, stretching between them like an invisible barrier. Lily wrestled with her thoughts, her mind consumed by the burning question that had been gnawing at her since the moment she had recognized Danial's familiar gaze amidst the chaos. Summoning all her courage, Lily finally broke the silence, her voice hesitant yet determined. "Danial, are you the person from the hotel incident a few days ago, named Shadow?" she asked, her words hanging in the air like a palpable tension.

Risa says. Lily chooses to remain silent, enjoying every gust of the night wind slowly hitting her face. "I'm actually confused, Sa." "Confused? Because of Cheryl?" Risa guesses correctly. The gate is called doubt. Lily's dilemma truly leaves her in a quandary. She dared to approach Denny, only after ensuring that what she's doing now is just a stepping stone. But it seems that's just a distraction from the turmoil that continues to haunt her. Cheryl Amanta Versha.

Lily whispered to Sherly. "Which one?" Even though she was starting to get drunk, Sherly still had consciousness. She followed her friend's direction. "What's wearing that black shirt?" "Yes, that's right. Your eyes are really good at finding handsome men." After confirming, Lily immediately stood up. "Hey friends, do you agree that Fira seduced a man tonight? It's time for her to show us her seduction techniques. Is she better than us?" "Hey... what the hell, I don't want to," protested Sherly as she pulled Lily's hand to make her sit back down.

I nodded my glass to Lily who remained dazed. Kerry pursed her lips allowing her gaze wander all over Lily. “What exactly is she?” She folded her arms over her chest. “Who.” I stared at her over the rim of my glass. “She's the new recruit. She should do well for you, shouldn't she?” Kerry sashayed round the table with her heels click clacking after her. She used her nails to trail around Lily's face. Lily swung her face away but Kerry gripped her by the chin inspecting her face. I could see the same defiant look from a few days ago on Lily's face. Good, she'd need that to survive in there.

The only event that remained clear in my mind was my little meeting with Alpha Asher against the club's brick wall. I sat back from the book with a frown on my face. Miss Shelby came back into the room and gave me a sympathetic smile. "Such a shame, isn't it?" Miss Shelby shook her head. "Such little information on an entire race." "I wonder what happened to Kouritis." I frowned, "Are their any records of his bloodline?"
