Lies He Told Novels & Stories

Elie said, her eyes welling with tears. I heard the whole thing and was surprised because I didn’t think she would say that. And what the hell was that? She was lying. “Lia, get back in the car, you need to rest,” Ivor told me. “But, I” I did not take it for granted when things got that way. Things shouldn’t have been that way. I was supposed to be the winner. “Lia, listen to me. You really need to rest,” Ivor repeated, not allowing me to deny his request. “Before that, apologize to Elie.”

He finished his story with tears streaking down his cheek. "You are the boy from the story, arent you? I could tell from the start" Lia said noticing the tears in his eyes. For the first time, she looked into his eyes and all he could see was a young man who has walked through volcanoes, and not a thief. But she dared not believe all his stories, they might just be another bait to lure her into another trap.

I leaned back in my seat and added, "I'm giving you a chance now. Say the magic words. Break up with me. Don't worry. If anyone asks, I'll tell them that you were the one who dumped me so that won't hurt your ego anymore, right? Now, come on, say it. Say we're done so I can finally go home and sleep."

“I’ve been with you for six years, and you don’t trust me? Why hand me over to someone else without a word? “Lilian is lying to you. She’s framing me…” I forced my expression to look sincere. He crouched down in front of me, fingertips brushing my cheek with a gentleness that felt almost like comforting a lover. “Eliza, I can’t believe I feel for you.” He sighed. “You know how much I hate being lied to.” Slowly, his hand moved to my neck, tightening little by little. I struggled to breathe, staring into his eyes. It was like an endless black abyss, hiding a bloodthirsty beast.

Like he'd changed what he was going to say at the last second. "That's bullshit." "Excuse me?" "You were going to say something else. Don't lie to me." "I'm not lying." "Yes you are. You do this thing where your voice gets all flat when you're lying. It's a tell." "I don't have a tell." "You absolutely have a tell." I stepped closer to him, getting in his space now. "Just admit what you were going to say." "There's nothing to admit." "Liar." "Thalia, drop it."

It made a lot of things make sense, but I still couldn’t understand how I hadn’t noticed. “I hadn’t planned to tell you, but then I thought I should. After a few other things occurred, I wasn’t sure if I should. Then we had problems, so I thought it was best not to tell you. After our issues were resolved, I wanted to tell you, but I wasn’t sure how to. I have tried finding a way to tell you for a while, but there has always been a lingering doubt.” Lia stumbled over her words.

LEWIS I looked at Lia who did not know how to react and helplessly sighed. ‘It’s okay. Little by little, I will make you get used to it,’ I thought before giving her back a gentle pat. "Really? Is that true? How did Adel react?" Her friend asked with interest. "She only blushed and did not believe that I was really confessing," I softly added as I watched Lia once again drink her tea. Suddenly, she choked on her tea once again. I bit my lower lip to prevent myself from smiling while reaching up for her once again.

There is nothing to hide, is there? "Okay, I will tell you," I say, and take in a deep breath. "There is this man, Liam. He is the guy I told you about: the one who offered me to sleep in his suite that night we went out to celebrate the end of college," I begin the narration. Liza's eyes brighten up at the mention of 'the guy'. "Him and I have been kinda, you know, seeing each other," I say, and her eyes widen, nearly popping out of their sockets.

Lia The next morning I sat across from my brother. He had come over to visit and I explained everything to him, watching as his face shifted into anger. “Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” “I didn’t want to worry you,” I whispered. “Look she came here to talk with me so I wanted to try to handle it myself. It’s not like I didn’t tell the guys.” Michael scowled. “So you told everyone in the pack except me?” “I… didn’t mean to not tell you.”

he said. “How are we going to tell him?” I asked, tears falling from my eyes. I quickly cleaned it as pops looked at me with the don’t start look. “It’s my hormones,” I mumbled. He looked at me, shocked. “You are already lying on my grandkid,” he said, narrowing his eyes at me. I laughed, looking at him. Trust him to make someone smile. “Don’t worry about Liam, we will just tell him that Dave went on a business trip,” he said.
