Kobo Clara Colour Case Novels & Stories

Clara laughed, "Possessed by the dick, maybe. Okay, sit down. We are going to fix this, you can't walk around looking like you just walked off the set of a vampire movie." She dragged her desk chair over and pushed me into it. She pulled out her makeup bag, "You need color correction," Clara explained, digging through the bag. "Green cancels red, but for purple, you need yellow or peach then a full coverage concealer." She went to work. She dabbed a peach-colored cream onto the mark, blending it out with a small sponge. Then she applied a layer of thick, skin-tone liquid. "Hold still," she muttered, her tongue poking out of the corner of her mouth in concentration. "And... set with powder. B

As she slid into the backseat, her phone buzzed. A single message from an unknown number. Scarlet is your color. But I’m thinking black leather for the next one. The parking garage. After hours. – M Clara leaned her head back against the seat and smiled a slow, secret smile. The department store fantasy was over. But the game, it seemed, was just beginning.

The words came out low. Sharp. Not aimed at anyone. The assistant hesitated. Then quietly said, “It wasn’t yours.” The room went still. Clara slowly turned. “What?” The assistant swallowed. “King Holdings belonged to Mr. King.” Clara crossed the distance in seconds. The slap cracked through the room. The tablet fell. The assistant stumbled backward, eyes wide. Clara’s chest rose sharply. “You think because cameras stopped looking at me you get opinions now?” “No, Miss Clara…” “You work for me.”

Amara accepted it with quiet anticipation, unwrapping it slowly. Inside was a beautifully crafted sketchbook, along with a set of high-quality pencils and charcoal sticks. Her breath caught. “It’s… perfect,” she whispered. Clara knelt slightly to meet her eyes. “You see the world differently,” she said gently. “I wanted to give you something to capture that.” Amara’s eyes glistened faintly. “Thank you… I’ll use it for everything.” Their shared smile lingered, soft and meaningful. *** Finally, Clara turned to Alex.

Chapter Seven The word kneel tore through Raven like a whip. Her knees locked, as every bone in her body screamed to resist. Wolves don't kneel to anyone but their Alpha and Reed weren't hers. But the Fangs had closed in around her like a noose. The alley reeked of smoke, gasoline, and suspicion. Cole stood grinning in triumph, knife still gleaming in his hands as Sabrina trembled, her wide eyes darting helplessly between them. The hunters muttered, wounded but eager to watch her fall.

She replied. “And also, I can't make you look better than my family.” Kaylee added and Clara nodded. “I understand.” She said and looked in the mirror. Kaylee looked in the mirror too and they both stared at each other. It felt like Clara manipulated her with her looks and she suddenly smiled. “How much will you pay me?” Kaylee asked, turning to her. Clara glanced at her bag on the table. “You can have my bag.” She replied and Kaylee gasped.

She said and Clara nodded her head. "You are most welcome, stay here. I have something for you." Clara said and Zara wondered what it was as she walked out of the room. She seems to be heading to her room. "I wonder what it is," Zara said as she waited for her to come back. Clara walked into the room about fifteen minutes later. She was holding a black box in her hands, and she was smiling down at it. "Here, you should have this," Clara said and handed a box over to Zara. Zara took the box from Clara and opened it, she was extremely stunned at what she saw.

Clara having an awful day always equals disaster. She usually swims or uses the gym to kickbox things out of her system, and today didn’t seem like it was going to happen. Clara was hiding in her office. Eli got up, took the tablet, straightened her skirt, and prepared herself to get screamed at. After a few minutes, Sebastian walks over to the door and tells her to hold all appointments and phone calls.

That gave me, at best, five and a half minutes. I kept my pace casual but efficient, folders in my hand enough to look official, enough to stay invisible. No one questioned someone carrying paperwork, especially not someone who wore confidence like a second skin. Clara’s office door was ajar, just like Levy said it would be. I pushed it open with my shoulder, closing it behind me without a sound. Inside, the air was lemon clean and cold, her desk a minimalist’s dream, neatly stacked files, a closed leather bound planner, and… there it was. The black tablet sat docked beside her laptop.

I had to use both hands to pry his fingers loose, one by one, surprised by the thickness of his wrists for a child his age. He turned onto his back, his eyes fluttering open for a brief second. In the weak light from the tallow candle, his left iris was a deep violet, exactly like the reflection I saw in my washbasin every morning. His right iris was a pale, stormy grey. "Mama?" he mumbled. "Go back to sleep, Toby," I said, rubbing his forehead until his breathing slowed down. Clara came into the market square on a Tuesday, her hair hidden beneath a heavy wool shawl that smelled of cloves and woodsmoke. She found me near the well, where I was lifting a wooden bucket with both hands.
