Icarus Deception Novels & Stories

As he placed the tool to the side and looked at the car's engine, he gave a soft smile and scoffed laugh, “I was kidding.” The fact that these strangers were willing to help me gave me back that hope that there are still good people in the world today. Sinister was such a disgusting man, I trusted him and he broke my trust. His grandfather is even more despicable to do such a horrid thing to Marc. I was done being their puppet. No more being used. I was done. My head ached, and I felt as if the earth was slightly spinning. The surrounding sounds faded, and I clutched onto Marc's

His face is bleeding. "What the fuck is your problem?!" He yelled. My blood boils. "What is my problem? I should be the one asking you what the fuck is your problem Gideon! Bakit mo ginawa 'yon kay Hope?!" Nag pumiglas ako kay Robi but this man is so good in this situation. He tightened his grip to me like he's a human chain! "You fooled me! Ang sabi mo she's your cousin Jonas I was deceived! Tangina bakit ka nagagalit ikaw naman yung nag pasimuno!"

“He forced himself on you.” “No, stop it!” I caught his arm before he could turn away. “ That was not what happened” “ Then what happened? Tell me what fucking happened Lila” he said before hitting his fist against the wall in anger “He-” I stopped as I looked at his shirt that had shifted slightly near the collar. My eyes dropped to his chest, the infinity mark that was there was gone.The dark infinity symbol that he had showed me when he told me about the prophecy was gone . I stared at the bare skin beneath his collar.

Her green, long flowy gown swished with her elegant movements. "Sheia is right. You broke our codes today and warned the immortal," her brother, the real brother by blood Eris came to her support. The scar on his left cheek stretched with the smile that didn't reach his eyes. Gaia smiled. "Eris! Long time no see." Her fake enthusiasm earned a scowl from him. "We aren't friends." His muscular arm tightened on the hilt of his sword strapped to his lean hip. "We know that Lycan is special to you. But you broke the code by warning him."

Iris sprang up from the couch, with her fist clenched. “Iris, don’t do that.” “He fucking deceived you. “ “We need a plan, don’t act rashly, okay. You know how Spencer is. One mistake and Ariel is gone.” Iris fumed, her chest heaving up and down heavily. “Fine. We should think of a plan.”

The people you're trying to help will be the first to get hurt. "Not if we can redirect the damage," I said. I leaned over the desk drawing a diagram of the Vane hierarchy. "The Icarus Fund is the key. It's where the diverted money is hidden. If I can prove that Sovereign Aris is funded by Icarus the bond becomes invalid. The debt is bad. The creditors will lose their power to take the collateral." "That's a plan on paper," Elias said. "You need the digital signature from the beneficiary of Icarus to prove the link. That signature belongs to Julian."

And now, he would finally understand why I had been so opposed to their relationship. But as I looked at Gael, I saw something that made my heart sink. I saw a look of uncertainty, a look of doubt. And I realized, with a sinking feeling, that Gael might not be as convinced as I thought he would be. "What does this mean?" Gael asked, his voice hesitant. "Is this really true?" I nodded, feeling a sense of frustration. "Yes, it's true," I said. "Kaye is not the woman you think she is. She's manipulative and deceitful, and she's only using you for her own gain."

“I am so glad you are here!” Icarus was a tall, strong young man with sharp features and piercing eyes. He had black hair that hung over his forehead, almost covering one of his eyes. His high cheekbones and strong jawline only added to his ‘I don’t give a shit’ attitude. He wore a black suit and had a mischievous grin on his face. Unbeknownst, even to Elara, Icarus is a demon sent from hell to push her towards the darkside.

"The Rossis didn't bomb your club. I did. You went to war with the wrong family. By the way, how does it feel knowing you killed a child for nothing?" I stared at my phone screen while my hands started shaking again. Claire had planted the bomb. Claire had killed those fifteen people then let me believe it was the Rossi’s so I would retaliate against them. She had manipulated me into starting a war that had now resulted in a seven year old girl's death. Everything I had done tonight was based on a lie. The attacks I ordered. The casualties we inflicted. Sofia Rossi dying in that fire. All of it happened because I believed my sister's deception without questioning whether the Rossis were actu

“No. You made choices because you don’t trust me. Because somewhere, deep down, you still think I’m fragile enough to break if you told me the truth.” He ran a hand through his wet hair. “That’s not fair.” “No, what’s not fair is me having to find out about the deals you’re making in my name from Alexei.” His jaw tightened. “ I screwed up, but I had my reasons. Alexie, he's just trying to manipulate you” “Don’t dare change the topic,” I said, voice shaking. “Do you think I’m dumb? That I can’t see what’s happening? Irina and Alexei are playing some twisted game, and you’re fighting back like I’m a prize to be won.”
