Novel & Cerita Faking Relationship

“Still, you didn't ask for my opinion.” "I'm asking now." I sighed. "That's not how that works, Ethan." He shrugged slightly. "It was the only timeframe available to me." I rubbed my temples. "I hate you." "No, you don't." He met my gaze, and for a moment, I feared he wasn't joking. “This is a fake relationship for what it's worth." "Yes." "And anyone who falls in love has to get out of the house?" "That's the deal" I exhaled and extended my hand. “Fine. Truce?”

Noah Ellis had a theory about Mason Reed. The theory was this: Mason was the most self-aware person Noah had ever met who worked the hardest to pretend he wasn't. Everything Mason did, the jokes, the charm, the easy confidence that filled whatever room he walked into, was deliberate. Not fake, Noah had never thought it was fake, but deliberate, the way an architect is deliberate, building something functional and beautiful that also happened to hide its own foundations. Most people never looked for the foundations.

"Truthfully? I think it's farcical and demeaning to everything we've built together. You've become an invaluable partner and friend. This whole fake relationship feels like a violation of the trust between us." I twisted my hands anxiously on the tabletop. "But I can't deny the potential consequences if we let this circus play out unchecked. So, I'm asking..." I took a deep breath. "Will you consider being my fake boyfriend, at least temporarily?" I finally broke eye contact, hoping against hope he'd agree to indulge this ludicrous notion. Chris was silent for a long moment before exhaling heavily. "You know I'd never jeopardize our work or your well-being, right?" His voice had taken on tha

I looked at her and she seemed to have understood what I was saying. " I can't even look at them in the eyes and can't avoid them either. Whenever we meet he seems to avoid me which hurts me as well as him. Our relationship is getting affected. So my best friend suggested to me that I should introduce someone as my girlfriend to them. It would calm him and he would be assured that I am not interested in his wife. So can you please pretend to be my girlfriend in front of my friends? " She was about to say something when her phone started ringing. She looked at her screen. Prachi was calling her. Her eyes started shining when she saw her name. She picked up the phone.

I swallowed the gasp threatening to slip out. “And this partner needs to be credible, public and someone who can handle pressure.” I had no idea where this was going. None. Then he said it. “I need someone willing to fake a relationship with me.” My mind blanked so violently I almost forgot how to blink. “A fake… relationship?” I echoed. “Yes.” “With you?” “Yes.” “For how long?” “Six months,” he said. “Public appearances, events, articles, photos. The full illusion.” I felt dizzy.

“Jessica, do you even hear how ridiculous this sounds?” She ignored him, flipping open her folder and pacing the room like a professor giving a lecture. “You see, when people fake a relationship,there’s always this tension before the first kiss. They freeze up.They second-guess. ‘Where do I put my hands? Which side should I tilt my head? Do I close my eyes?’” She mimed the motions as she spoke, gesturing loosely, her voice annoyingly calm.Lena sank back in her chair, crossing her legs and folding her arms.She just wanted desperately to crawl into a hole and die.

“It’s not like that. It’s just part of the act. Damon’s mom needed to believe he’s serious about someone, so he brought me in. End of story.” “But is it, though?” Yas asked, leaning forward with a wicked gleam in her eye. “Because fake relationships have this funny way of… I don’t know, turning real when you least expect it.” “Yas,” I warned, narrowing my eyes. “I’m just saying!” she laughed, holding her hands up defensively. “You’re spending all this time together, pretending to be in love. Feelings could sneak up on you. Happens all the time in those rom-coms you secretly love.”

Thankfully, we were in a secluded corner and no one else witnessed that. “Wait, Nara. You were really in a relationship with Kain?” Leo asked and Jeffrey shook his head. “It was a fake relationship, wasn’t it?” “It was fake?” Emily asked, looking at me like she hoped I could confirm that and I did with a nod of my head. She took in a breath of relief. “So why won’t Kain let you break off the relationship if it was fake from the start, and why would you even need a fake relationship?” “Kain should answer that.” I said but the man remained quiet, just staring at me with an expression I couldn’t quite name. It felt strange that there was a trace of gentleness in his gaze.

"Uh… I just thought we could talk more about the details of our fake relationship. I've never been in one before, you know? I've never even dated for a long time. Christopher and I–" "There's not much to discuss," he said, sharply interrupting me. "We'll just pretend to be a couple, go on a few dates, and make sure my mom believes it." "Okay, that makes sense." I nodded. Lorenzo turned to leave again but then stopped and turned back to me. "Actually, there is one more thing." I looked at him curiously. "What's that?" Lorenzo smiled mischievously. "We need to make our fake relationship look convincing. So, we should probably practice kissing and stuff."

One minute he was asking me if I would still want to marry him because once he marked me there would be no turning back and now, he was talking about faking the relationship. Yes, the bond we were trying to create was fake and would always be fake but why… who was I kidding? He was clearly mating with me because he wanted to please Regina. What was I expecting? After witnessing the failed marriage between my sister and her fated mate, Alpha Clavin, I wasn't expecting a beautiful relationship with a stranger. I wasn’t expecting marriage at all s we might as well fake it and help each other escape external pressure. “That is a term I can agree with, Ayden. It wouldn't be a problem.”
