Diamond In Disguise: Now Watch Me Shine Novels & Stories

Not today anyway. Ogling him wouldn't make him go away, and I had no interest in confronting him regarding why he'd asked about me. So, I went back to my dressing station and began to reapply the heavy makeup that I hoped hid my identity. It might not actually do the trick, but I'd convinced myself that I was a different person when I caked it on. Nikki Wilson wasn't the girl on that stage taking off her clothes for strangers; Diamond was. And Diamond was edgy, strong, a force to be reckoned with. She had gumption, determination. Her give-a-fuck didn't even register. The second the first beat played through the speakers, Nikki became Diamond, and Diamond owned that stage.

I don’t feel discomfort, just a mechanical awareness of every touch and every flash. Then a tall blonde woman appears in a red dress that clings to her skin. “I’m Diamond,” she says, voice filled with confidence. “I manage this place. You’re the team’s golden boy tonight, huh?” She presses close, the camera shutters clicking as she smiles up at me. “One for the club’s page?” she asks, not waiting for my answer. She wraps an arm around my waist, flashes a sultry grin, and I hear the crowd cheer.

Maya pressed her lips together as he reached into his pocket. A massive diamond. Elegant. Stunning. Her stomach flipped. Zane took her hand and slipped it onto her finger. “You know, if we’re going to sell this, they need to know we’re not just together. His silver eyes rose to hers. “They have to think you’re mine.” Maya’s chest tightened. She had used disguises before. But this was the first one that was real. Zane smiled, but his eyes were on fire. “Let’s go.”

“You think Isaac bought this?” “How else could you afford it? You don't have two nickels to rub together unless you’re counting Summer’s lunch money.” Everyone… It was time. I slowly shifted Summer to my right arm, making sure my left hand was perfectly positioned under the dim living room light. I lifted my hand, splaying my fingers so the princess-cut diamond could do exactly what it was designed to do… Blind the opposition. The stone caught the blue light of the TV, fracturing it into a thousand sparkling shards.

Dad turns to me with a grin and says, "Open your eyes; you don’t want to miss this." I slowly peel my eyes open, and in that instant, I’m struck by the breathtaking beauty everyone has been raving about. The glow and shimmer envelop me, and the rest of the world seems to vanish as I gaze at the splendor before me. Dad doesn’t need to say anything else; I instantly realize what I’m witnessing. "Wow," I breathe out, taking a step closer, my eyes fixated on the sight… it’s the diamonds, the exquisite diamonds that everyone adores. They are a true marvel, radiating brilliance in all their glory. There’s no protection around them, not even a glass case; they’re simply displayed on the table, glis

Whitney said as she tried to console her beautiful daughter. Mei just gulped as a smirk plastered on her face, 'I'll make you regret doing this. Kyro' …. "So, Let's start the tonight auction" A host walked up at the stage as the light fall on a beautiful red color dress. It was the last dress design by a really famous designer. Everybody starred at that beautiful dress, it was looking stunning in the spotlight. Kyro sat down taking a sip of his wine, his eyes were fixed on the dress. Though there were many people whose eyes were fixed on the dress after seeing Kyro there, more than half people back out. They all knew they have no chance if that person is here.

And I was going to uncover hers. I noticed her sitting alone at an outdoor café, holding a warm mug. She looked serene, watching the snow fall. Perfect. Adjusting my coat, I approached her with cautious steps, a polite smile on my face. "Pardon me," I said softly, pretending to be hesitant. Amelia looked up, her eyes curious yet guarded. "Yes?" I chuckled shyly. "I'm sorry to disturb you, but I couldn't help but admire your coat. It's exquisite. Is it vintage?"

As I stared down at the glimmering diamond ring, I could only think about how ironic this entire thing was. "You have a horrible memory, Dean. This ring is filthy." I walked over and grabbed the ring. Dean grinned with glee, foolishly assuming that I'd changed my mind. "Eve, you..." However, his face soon went stiff, frozen in place. I raised my hand and threw the priceless diamond ring down to the patch of grass at the bottom of the building. Tears welled up in his eyes as he gazed down in dejection, clinging to the railing.

I stand there for a moment, surrounded by my girls as I watch him go. Rolling back my shoulders, I turn to the leader of the Diamonds, a striking woman who for today's escapade is wearing a long wavy wig over her shaved blonde hair. Her face tattoos have been carefully covered with concealer. If it weren't for her revealing clothing and sky-high heels she'd look like the girl next door. She simply nods to me as do the other two, my Diamonds are ready. But am I?

Yvette looked at the pair of earrings in appreciation. “Are these real diamonds?” Nicole looked at her helplessly. “Of course! I got the diamond from an auction and got it custom made. You just need to press and hold this for a few seconds to turn on the GPS. But if you turn it on, it can be detected, so you must be careful.” Yvette paused and looked at her calmly. “You know what I want to do?” Nicole pursed her lips. “Lance can’t help you now, and you can’t make the entire Sheldon Corporation obey you. I know that you can’t rest assured if you don’t solve the current problem.”
