I Pitied The Fool Novels & Stories

he whispered. "No," I corrected, leaning closer until our faces were inches apart. "A fool is someone who doesn't know better. You knew exactly what you were doing when you used my love to build this company. You used me as a stepping stone and kicked me away when you reached the top. Now, I’m just pulling the stone out from under your feet. Don't pretend you're shocked."

Their celestial light remained untroubled by earthly turmoil. How foolish I had been, believing myself free of this torment. One imploring word from Nathan, and here I was again, willingly walking back into the lion's den. I should have known his earnest vows were temporary manipulations. Once I outlived my usefulness, he would discard me as coldly as before. I was a born fool for trusting any word from his lying lips.

"It turns out I was the one who was the fool all along. Though for days I feel pounding every time I think about him—" Elisha laughed, but she also cried. At this moment, she felt she had become the most stupid of humans. ***

I was a hundred percent sure that it was another one of his tactics to fuck with my mind like he liked to do. “How can you even fool around like this and play dumb pranks on me when Sofia is lying there on death’s bed? SHE is your mate! You should be by HER side praying for her health but look at you! You truly are the worst!” I shouted unable to control my anger that had emerged on his atrocious behavior. What a fool I was to even think that this piece of shit would even feel an ounce of pain or sadness on Sofia’s situation. He only loved himself and nothing else ever mattered to him!

"Are you so-sorry?" Can't believe I asked him. "Did you hear me say that? Are you deaf or stupid?" Wow, new word! Thrilling called me a fool! "You know who you are, you really like to be hit!" "You know with so many helpers who have passed by me you're the only one who has the courage to scold me." "Oh, why? You don't want to? What do you want me to love you for-I'm going to take it easy!" I moaned as it flipped my forehead.

He just sat there without saying a word. He took the bait. I didn't know that would actually work but it did. I didn't think that he would go this soft to believing my words. I thought it was only at the mention of his father's name that he succumbs to whatever I wanted him to do. "How can I be such a fool?", he lamented. "You are not a fool, you were not just there to notice it okay. Now that that is over, Chantel will be waiting for you", I said, still caressing his shoulder.

The shocked cry was swiftly drowned out by another voice that cracked through the room like thunder: “Hell no! Are you blind, you miserable wretch? How dare you insult Mr. Brooke! You must have a death wish!”

he scoffed with a wave of his hand as if he was talking about the weather or something not so important. I can't believe how stupid I was to believe that a man who is known as the devil's son will love me to the extent that he will have my best interest at heart, i should have known! I should have realized that he saw me as a tool when he helped me and used me for his own benefits! I should have known better when he sent me to numerous wars while he and his family hide in the palace like cowards but I was too foolish and ignorant for my own good, perhaps that seer didn't lie when she said that I was a fool to believe and trust a man like Fenrir when I know the truth about him.
