Lies Book Novels & Stories

Tonight, she could feel the chair beneath her. Tonight, she could feel the food on her tongue. Tonight, she could feel anger — low, steady, alive. And anger meant she was still here. Days passed in strange peace. Luke remained distant. Always respectful. Always controlled. He spoke to her like she was someone whose choices mattered. It confused her. It terrified her. It made her watch him constantly, waiting for the illusion to break. But it didn’t. Instead, he gave her space. Books appeared in her chambers — histories, magic theory, war strategy, poetry. Dresses tailored perfectly to her size. A dagger, placed carefully on her nightstand, like a silent promise she could defend herself if sh

Without lifting his head, he said, "The books behind me are ones I often read. If you're interested, I can lend them to you." The Traffic Light Trio exchanged glances. Hmph, he was surely boasting. They didn't believe that anyone could have read all those books. Liam seemed to sense their skepticism and suddenly pointed to the sixth book on the third row and fourth column of the left shelf. "Take out 'The Power of Evolution' for me." Billy, still skeptical, went over and took the book out. Indeed, it was the book Liam mentioned. "Maybe he just got lucky and guessed it right," Luke muttered discontentedly.

They were sitting a little far away from him though. Lisa was a little scared and asked, “Do you have anything to read?” Carl Black frowned and looked at her dubiously. He thought, after losing her memory, she might have developed an interest in reading books. He took a book out of his bag and passed it to her. Lisa’s eyes widened to see the book. He actually gave her a journal of physics. She thought he would give her a magazine or at least a novel. She looked at the journal dumbly, and then her eyes moved to Carl Black, only to meet his curious gaze.

There were piles of books on her table, and there was a request for more books that she had drafted out. “My lady, let us leave.” Liora begged, following behind me impatiently. I checked through some of her books, and they were mostly fiction. My eyes caught a particular book under a pile of books, and I reached for it instantly. “My lady, you're going to get me killed.” Liora groaned as I picked up the book. “THE ADVENTURES OF LADY KILMARTIN.” I read out loud. “Huh?” Liora mumbled.

Valentina slid into the last stall, locked it, and set the briefcase on the narrow shelf above the toilet. Her hands moved fast, efficient. The key turned with a faint click, and the lid lifted. There it was. The ledger. Black leather, worn at the edges, its pages thick with ink. She flipped it open, her breath catching as names and numbers spilled across the paper: shipments, ports, bribes, politicians bought and paid for—routes carved in blood. It wasn’t just a ledger—it was an empire written in code and ink. Her chest tightened. If Dante wanted this, it wasn’t for leverage—it was for war.

Not long ago, on the street near the school. Because of the workday, where there weren't many people on the street, Lisa managed to get from Benedict out of school to in front of Benedict putting on makeup, pulling Mina into the bookstore for the first time. "Lisa what are these things." Mina looked at the pile of books in her hand like "Appraisal of scum", "How to distinguish bad men" and "Women should know how to distinguish scum", with a confused look at Lisa who was still flipping the bookshelf. .

Levy I’ve just gone up to my room with a glass of water and a book from our downstairs library I created for Dylan when he was younger. It’s grown from children’s books to adult reads. It warms my heart that he and I share the same love for certain authors. My favorite being Lee Child and James Patterson. Sometimes we’ll have our own guy’s book club meet, and yeah bikers read too! I wouldn’t tell my bro’s they’d rib me for it because they’re like that, except maybe Lex he reads a lot too.

**Elizabeth's POV** * I waited for Brandon's rant and scolding, but he did not do it. He just fished a few books out of the drawer, tossed them to me, and went back to sleep. I took several deep breaths before I picked up the books. They were not textbooks. They were obviously checked out from the library. Not everyone has the right to enter the library. Because many books in the library are confidential. And the three books Brandon gave me were World Geography, Warrior Combat Skills, and Medicine Encyclopedia.

There's still long hours till morning. Checking the book in his hand, he discovered it to be a novel. 'The Red and the Black' by Stendhal. After checking the description of the book, he believed it wouldn't be bad to give it a try although he is not fond of reading novels. Leo prefer reading normal books, it doesn't matter which type it is as long as there are not romance books. Most of the romance books he read in the past are rather cliche, untrue and misleading because such love in books doesn't exist in this modern day society.

She would need them to distract herself from her mom and her husband. “My stepbrother is sick, I want to check on him,” she replied, sliding her library card against the sensory. With this, she was allowed access. “Oh, okay. You should buy some energy drink on your way.” Alexa advised. “Alright. Thank you.” With this, she ended the call and tucked her phone in her bag. After picking up the necessary books, she got out of the library. Lily checked the time and saw that she had spent forty minutes trying to find the perfect books. Sometimes she didn't like herself for being such a book addict. At least she wasn't as deep as Gabriel. The last time she got into his room, she wanted to steal his
