Cleo And Deuce の小説・ストーリー

Ten years went by in a blink. At a high-end classical concert in Vienza, Cleo and Rory showed up as invited guests. Time had been good to her. It sharpened her into something calmer, more refined. Next to her, Rory still had that roguish edge—just quieter now. Together, they were the kind of couple people couldn't help but notice. At intermission, Cleo slipped away to the restroom while Rory got pulled into a conversation with someone from the music scene.

She was in one of the rooms upstairs and I knocked before Debbie let me in. “Come on in,” Debbie said. “Cleo is having a crisis. Her dad can’t make it today,” Debbie told me as she opened the door. I was more surprised to see her here. I had thought this was a family thing. “Why?” I asked Cleo. She paced beside me. “His flight got delayed and he has this thing. I think he’s dating again,” Cleo said and I could almost taste the distaste in her mouth. She brought the phone to her ear and resumed her conversation. “It’s Isa. See, everyone is here!” Cleo said into her phone.

" You're forgiven babe . Now let's go for lunch . " Cleo pulled back and sneezed she did feel hot but I thought nothing of it. "You okay?" "Yeah ." I knew deep down that Cleo was lying. I messed up royally. #KCMmuoue

Then they both walked barefoot towards the terrace. They took their first step on the terrace while placing their foot on the rose petals. The music started echoing at that very moment. Adira looked at Dylan with wide eyes when it just happened. Dylan saw those expressions on her face and smiled widely. "It is just a start love. Tonight we will experience much more than this." Dylan said while walking further on the terrace. Adira was also taking steps with him. There was a tent house at one corner of the terrace that was decorated with decorating lights.

"Clara, you're making a mistake!" Lucian's voice echoed behind her as she stormed down the dimly lit tunnel, holding the glowing crystal tightly in her hand. She didn't look back. "A mistake? The only mistake I made was trusting you!" she shouted over her shoulder. Listen to me!" "You don't grasp what you're dealing with!" Lucian shouted, hurriedly increasing his pace in an attempt to reach her. "stop following me behind me, Lucian!" Clara whirled around, her eyes blazing with intense fury. "You deceived me." You toyed with my emotions of love, leading me to believe in something that wasn't genuine. "I'm done with you."

Then it was just me and her. The room was quiet now, sterile. The weight of memory and tension sat heavy in the air. Cleo closed the door gently behind the last person, then turned and leaned against the table, arms folded, eyes gleaming like she was exactly where she wanted to be. “What do you want, Cleo?” I asked, voice cold. She smiled—slow and deliberate. “To talk. Like civilized exes. I thought we could start with the part where you pretend you aren’t shaken seeing me.”

“You think you’re smarter than everyone? Hiding behind that pathetic amnesia act, faking shyness like some sniveling pup too weak to stand on her own? I’m the one who got us this far… I fed Jade every scrap of intel from inside the pack, played the perfect grieving sister so no one suspected a thing. I positioned myself right next to the alphas while you skulked in the shadows like a coward. If you kill me, you lose everything we built. We had a deal, Cleo…!” Cleo’s eyes narrowed to slits, her treacherous nature shining through like poison seeping from a wound… the master plotter who’d kidnapped her own mate without a trace, orchestrated the fire and the fake corpse to shatter my mates, alwa

"How sweet, you said ma'am you don't have a boyfriend now?" Cleo giggled. His face was red, probably because of the alcohol. Liza slapped him again and told him to be quiet. Carter glared at me darkly. I was swallowed. Now his expression is more angry. And I can't find even a word to defend myself! "I'm not just her boyfriend. I'm her fiancé. We're getting married next month." My jaw dropped. They even dropped their jaws in panic. The glass Vina was holding almost slipped from her hand, the others could not speak in shock. Architect was also surprised. Even me was stunned!

He covered her hands with his as he stared at her. "What are you doing, Cleo? You’re not supposed to be in here, and..." "Stop joking around with me, baby. You know very well that you begged for my love last night, and you simply couldn’t get enough of my scent. It was so hot riding you like a stallion," Cleo said as she laughed. My fingers slammed against my mouth as I ran out of the room as fast as I could. There was no way in hell that this could be happening, but it was. I couldn’t see where I was going as I moved. I was just so clueless and hurt.
