Everyone Here Is Lying Novels & Stories

“I guess I wasn’t paying attention.” “I think everyone has thought about killing someone at some point.” Lily poured a shot for me. “Even if you didn’t hear it correctly, it is still a penalty shot for lying.” Once the shot was ready, I drank it without complaint and held the glass out for her to pour me another. After I finished the second shot, I looked around the table. Everyone was staring at me as if they didn’t believe I hadn’t killed someone.” “Are you sure you haven’t killed anyone?” The girl beside me asked in a low voice, but I was sure everyone could hear her.

Lydia answered. “Are you trying to say I am lying?” Talia asked through gritted teeth and I just rolled my eyes. “That was exactly what you did. You lied. Why am I even surprised? Poor people are good at telling lies. You tell lies for a living. You can do better please,” I said as I rolled my eyes.

I leaned back in my seat and added, "I'm giving you a chance now. Say the magic words. Break up with me. Don't worry. If anyone asks, I'll tell them that you were the one who dumped me so that won't hurt your ego anymore, right? Now, come on, say it. Say we're done so I can finally go home and sleep."

I point toward all of them. Jax nods so aggressively I'm worried about his neck. "At home." The word slips out. Every single one of them reacts. I ignore it. "If any of you lie to me again, even once, even a tiny white lie, I will disappear so thoroughly you'll spend the rest of your lives wondering if I ever existed." The room remains silent for a beat. Ezra nods. "Fair." "More than fair." Corrian follows. River smiles softly. Leo simply says, "Understood."

Guilt was clearly shown in them which made everything clear to me. "YOU WERE LYING TO ME UNTIL NOW!? ALL OF YOU!?" I turned again to look at all the others.. The people I trusted.....

“What lies have you been spreading?” I heave a sigh, and raise my voice so even those at the other end of the room can hear me. “Hands up anyone whom I have spoken to in the last twenty-four hours.” They all look at one another, but no hands go up. I turn back to Amos. “No lies. See? I haven’t even spoken to them. I have no idea where rumours come from, but they spread, regardless of their truth. Welcome to fame, please leave your self-esteem and good reputation at the door, they’re going to get stripped off you anyway.” “Stop pretending, Amos,” says the same clarinettist. “We all know about you and that bitch.”

As soon as everyone was gone, she immediately pulled her hand back and grumbled, "Ugh, you reek like an old woman." The moment her words fell, she clasped her hand to her mouth. Her gaze darted around wildly, feigning fear as she whimpered, "Ms. Jones, I didn't mean it that way! It's all Mr. Grant's fault… He's been saying that all the time, and I couldn't help it. You'll forgive me, right?" Malice flared in her eyes—she didn't look the slightest bit sorry.

"Who hit my sister?" The crowd fell silent. All the color drained from Viola's face. Her lips trembled, and a muffled whimper escaped her. Aaron's expression shifted from anger to confusion, then to terror. "That's impossible. How could she be..." He suddenly looked at me, his eyes red. "Eve, why didn't you tell me?!" He stepped forward and tried to take my hand. Even his voice changed. "Eve, I made a mistake! She lied to me! She kept turning me against you! I never wanted to break up with you!"

“For those who don’t know, you tell us three statements about yourself—two of them true, one a lie—and we have to guess which one is the lie.” “I’ll start,” Zyra volunteered. “Okay, here are my three statements: One, I can play the piano. Two, I see the future. Three, I’m allergic to strawberries.” The pack members looked at her, trying to guess. “I think the lie is you seeing the future,” Kieran said. “No way, it’s the piano,” Elara countered. Zyra smiled. “Actually, the lie is that I’m allergic to strawberries. I love them.” “Wow, I didn’t know you could play the piano,” Seraphina said, impressed.
