Lie In Wait Book Novels & Stories

“But you’ve learned when to bite and when to wait.” Lia breathed out slowly. “I don’t have the energy to hate anymore.” Sia studied her face, the calm behind the words. “Hate burns fast. Survival is slower.” Lia looked down at her hands. The ring caught the light, small flashes across her skin. “Do you think I’m surviving?” “You’re still here,” Sia said simply. “That’s how it starts.” Later that day,Sia found her again, this time in the library.Books were scattered across the table. Lia sat cross-legged on the chair, reading something about trade routes. Her lips moved silently as she followed the lines.

But what surprises Vienna was the volume of the books, no offense but she thought Leopard was not the type of guy who likes to read books, other than maps and such. She somehow landed her eyes in a certain book lying on the table that caught her attention. Vienna took it and read the title, Where I truly Belong. She smirked at the book's title, it seems like even the book is confused about where it truly belongs, just like Vienna. She returned it above the table and walk near the window where the houses and the large scale of water surrounding the island shines as the morning setting sun appear, turning the seawater into gold. She has never been this peaceful ever since, and it gives her suc

So, this was the reason he had refused to go public with our relationship all these years. All that talk about waiting for the firm to stabilize, waiting for the right time, waiting until he could give me a secure life before going public—it was all a lie. Without even knowing it, I had been the other woman. I forced a bitter smile and looked them both straight in the eye. "Fine. Okay. I'll leave you two to it." With that, I bent down, gathered my personal belongings from the floor, and prepared to leave. "Hold on." Louis suddenly called out, stopping me.

“What’s going on? You’ve been in here a while.” “Well, Xavier was just letting me know dinner was wrapping up.” The lie rolled off my tongue before I could think, and I managed a small smile to make it more convincing. “I was also lost in our little discussion that I lost track of time.” Frank looked at me for a moment like he found something blue in what I said and then Xavier, I couldn’t read the plain expression he had, it was the kind of look that made you think he had some suspicious thoughts. My pulse hammered in my ears but I held his gaze, kept my shoulders lose and held on to the smile.

Staring at the tear-stricken face of the man kneeling on the ground, I asked, "What was written on the back of the wish card?" That day, he had kept it from me, and I had faintly caught a glimpse of a word starting with the letter "C". He had held it high out of reach and said it was a secret, only promising to show it to me if I could get it. He knew how tall he was and that I never could, unless he let me. Now, he froze as if a thought struck him, and he immediately said, "I'll find it and bring it to you, alright? I-I'll go back and find it so that I can show it to you…" He stuttered through his words as he stumbled out the door.

I ran my hand along the wall, the dresser, the bedpost, just to make sure it was all real. When everyone went to bed, Emily stayed behind with me in the living room. We sat in silence for a while, just listening to the ticking clock. “You know,” she said quietly, “you’re stronger than you think.” I smiled faintly. “Maybe. Or maybe I just got tired of being broken.” She looked at me, her eyes warm. “Either way, you made it.” Deep down, something still lingered. A faint unease I couldn’t name, it felt like I was living a lie and I'd still go back to that hole. The deep scar in my chest throbbed, I held my chest tightly.

That would be selfishness and it’d only make it impossible for me to get him. When I found out that Lea was starting to speak... I booked an international flight to somewhere as far as my money would take me. I was waiting in the queue but when my name was called, somebody suddenly snatched my luggage. It was Luis. @DEATH WISH Thank you for supporting my Novel! You may also read my complete Novel, (hmmm... while waiting for an update) Title: TAMING THE DANGEROUS CEO Thank you so much!

Just then she heard a familiar voice on the mike. "People say'Waiting is a waste of time.Sometime it's not a waste of time , especially if the thing you're waiting for is worth it."the voice said.

She opened the book. The first pages were practical. A record of the Waiting: its stages, what to expect, how the territory responded. She read standing at the bookshelf, with Lucien beside her, close enough that she could feel his warmth against the cool air of the chamber. Neither of them spoke. The only sound was the occasional turn of a page. Then she reached the section headed On the Question of Pairing. She read it twice before she said anything. "The convergence isn't symbolic," she said finally. "You knew that."

"W-We were worried you would be nervous on your first night home! We were just joking to help you relax." Gillian and Keith nodded repeatedly. "Yes! That's right! The joke was poorly timed. We'll be more careful in the future!" I smiled, switched the stun gun back on, and shocked all three of them again. "Still lying, huh? I already know who the real heiress is."
