Can You Keep A Secret Book Novels & Stories

SUMMARY I have a secret. I’m in love with my best friend, but I’ve never told her. Sharing feelings is right up there with all-time terrible things. Instead of saying it, I show her how I feel every day. I watch Big Brother with her. We have scary movie night. I hold her hair when she’s puking. That’s love in my books. Only…she’s not been the same recently, and I don’t know how to fix it. I hope she knows I'd do anything for her.

“Some secrets don't stay buried.” Elena’s vision blurred for a moment. She glanced around the classroom — every chair in place, every shelf neat. No sign anyone had been there. Her heart pounded so hard it hurt. Outside, thunder rumbled softly — a low warning that crawled through the air. She clutched the note, the words burning into her palm. Some secrets don’t stay buried. For a second, she thought she saw movement outside the window — a silhouette by the gate. But when she blinked, it was gone.

Kai walked toward Logan, who sat slumped in his seat. He had seen Snow slam the door in Logan’s face, and he agreed Logan was being selfish. People could die, yet he stayed stubborn. “That book wasn’t destroyed, right?” Kai asked. Logan heaved a sigh and sank inward for a moment before turning to Kai. “Actually, it was hidden. Kept away for a reason. It held too much information. Everyone swore the book was destroyed, but not everyone could keep that secret.” He glanced at Kai and tried a small, tired laugh.

A place where even her mate can’t reach her. “So,” she says, running a finger along the spines of the books, “what exactly are we looking for?” I pause, eyes drifting over her eager expression. “You’re scared,” I say quietly. “You think I’ll go tell your brother what happened. That’s why you want to keep me close.” She sighs, lips pressing into a thin line. The answer is written all over her face. “I get it,” I continue. “But you just found out my secret—my wolf is my biggest secret. You think I’d turn around and betray yours? Even if you hadn’t seen her… I’d still keep your privacy safe.”

“Fine. Let’s just say I believe you. Let’s say the glow doesn’t mean anything. Why did Kaelan tell me there is a book about the glow that you keep hidden?” “What?” He gasped, his face slowly draining of color as he could not believe what he had heard. It was almost like a secret that could cause a world war had been revealed and he was trying so hard not to lose his mind in that moment. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. There is no such book. It’s just nonsense,” he laughed it off as I nodded, my disappointment in him getting bigger as I smiled.

"That can't be the truth. I can't be... no, please, this doesn't make any sense..." I stopped myself before the tears came, pressing my lips together and forcing myself to breathe slowly. My mind had completely abandoned the book I had come here looking for in the first place. I picked up the book I had been holding at some point without realizing it and set it down on one of the wooden tables nearby. My hands were shaking slightly. I needed air. I turned toward the door, then suddenly paused there. "Please," I said, without fully turning back around, my voice dropping into a plea. "Please keep this a secret. Don't tell anyone about this. Please."

"That's the part I can't get past. You didn't tell me." "Because I knew you would react like this" Bella said. "Cold and distant and acting like I betrayed you when all I did was keep one secret to protect the peace between us." "One secret" I repeated. "One secret destroyed everything Bella. Don't you see that. One secret is all it takes." I stood up. I needed to get out of this room. Needed air. Needed space to think without her looking at me with those guilty eyes.

It was just like old times but with kids present. Secret made me get abused my my own aunt, Secret made Catherine my best friend, Secret made Kendall close to me, Secret made me cry for almost losing Josh and made me realize how important he is to me, Secret made my relationship with Axel stronger, Secret reunited me with my dad, Secret made our bond stronger. Secret made us. Even though there is not a crime, there is not a trick, there is not a swindle, there is not a vice which does not live by secrecy, I have grown to love secrecy. It seems to be the one thing that break and made me. It's all about the Secret behind my inheritance.

I give it up and drink some water, the book falls on his lap, and I give in knowing there's not much to hide either way. He hands me back the book and waves his hand, asking me to open the lock. He stares at my hands and I raise a brow; yea right, like I am gonna let you see my key!. It's a spell, he'll be able to imitate it after a while. He scoffs and turns his head, the purple mist flows from my fingers and around the book, making a beautiful gorgeous pattern. I give him back the book, he simply stares at it wide-eyed and shocked, he turns to me and gives me a questioning look

But then again, who keeps files containing vital info with a stack of rotting papers? I marched to the third category, and saw the word neatly scribbled on the paper with dark ink. VAR. I went through the papers, each file seemed like a new discovery. A sickening smile crept to the corners of my mouth. Taking out two vital files, I turned and left the room. Nothing was here. There was no hidden compartment, no second secret passage like in the movies. Just an old library filled with moth-eaten files. As soon as I closed the door feeling a little disappointed, something shuffled on the board. My eyes snapped to the hallway. Was Ava awake?
