Lily Collins Novels & Stories

Lily replied, her voice tinged with sincerity. Lily took a shaky breath before continuing her account of recent events. "Mom, I need to confess something, Tony’s actions come after I confess to him that I had a one-night stand with Kade Wilson, the heir of the Wilson empire. We had a few drinks after Bella’s wedding ceremony, and the next thing I remember is waking up in his hotel room." Sandra's eyes widened with shock, "Oh, Lily. What were you thinking? The Wilsons are our business partners. This could jeopardize everything."

Chapter 1: The First Sting I never thought my life would change forever over something as stupid as forgetting to take out the trash. It was just another Friday in our quiet suburban neighborhood, the kind where everyone knows your business but pretends they don't. I'm Lily, seventeen, captain of the cheer squad at Westridge High, and yeah, maybe I look like the picture-perfect innocent girl with my long blonde ponytail, big blue eyes, and that perky smile everyone loves. But inside? Lately, I've been feeling this weird heat, like something's bubbling up that I don't understand. Especially around Daddy.

Stepping into the room, Daisy quickly flipped her light switch. 'Dang it! The power is out again.' Her thoughts raced as she walked slowly into the dark room. Just then the light flickers on. "Surprise!" The voice of Allison Melody and her two friends Vicki and Christiana broke through the silence. "Happy birthday, Daisy!" Allison and her friend's voices reverberate through the apartment, echoing with warmth and excitement. Daisy stood frozen, caught between the rush of adrenaline from the initial shock and the sudden flood of relief that washed over her.

I quickly step out to see a woman whose voice sounded awfully familiar, arguing with Delilah, the only model acquaintance I got along with because she was just as bitchy and spoilt as me. “You think I am a loser with no friends. Okay, first of all you couldn’t be more wrong, I have a lot of friends, Elizabeth, Victoria, Danika…..umm...my mother, my grandmother who, fun fact, knitted this sweater for me.” The woman said proudly as she gave Delilah what she thought was a savage reply. Yep, that’s Emily. Delilah just shook her head as she tried to process Emily’s personality, “What’s going on?” I intervene before the fight gets out of hand.

I was curious to know what his darkness looked like, Does it look exactly like him? Or does it have its own face? Well, I don't care who or what it copies, We are going to beat it— and Azrael, together. Picking up my cellphone from the bedside table next to me, I unlocked it, scrolling through Lils' Instagram page. Carefully swiping through her photos, Her beauty had me speechless, her long black hair, and deep purple eyes— just like her mothers'. I needed to see her, she needs to know how I feel and I know, it's risky, knowing everything that can go wrong, she's special, and she's going to save the world or maybe— she's going to destroy it.

For some weird reason, she was proud of him. “I need to know about her.” She heard Zeki again. “She is the one!” She closed her eyes when she heard Lily’s shrill voice. She turned and eyed her a little pleadingly. Furthermore, Noah tried to stop Lily but she looked crazy at that moment. “Your highness! She is the one who wears a wig and is bald inside. I swear it would give you shivers! You don’t believe me? Let me show you.” Before anyone could understand or say anything Lily reached to her and very harshly pulled away from her wig. Her reddish copper hair which was a little wavy and too lustrous, fell on her shoulders covering her waist.

Not just the ones immediately visible but the whole constellation. Lily was fifteen, in the middle of high school, already nationally recognized for research that she had produced from genuine curiosity rather than ambition. She was growing into a woman who knew how to use her mind without apology, who moved through competitive academic environments without losing her fundamental kindness. She had watched Elena rebuild from nothing. She had watched Dominic build from less than nothing. She carried both examples.

The rest of the family followed him. “Hey!” Someone called from behind Lily, making her turn. “Hey,” she replied. “Sorry, I haven’t properly introduced myself. My name is Tina Saint Morel, the wife of your husband’s cousin,” Tina said. “Yes, I know. Jonathan told me about you. I’m Lily Jones.” “Of course I know you. You’re the latest bride in this family—and the first person bold enough to speak when Mr. Morel is talking.” “Wow… is that how I’ve become popular in this family within just two days?”

“Before you both make me cry, can I just say — this is officially the most shocking and romantic news I’ve heard all year.” Isabella laughed. “You’re overreacting.” “Oh really?” Lily leaned closer, grinning. “Then maybe you can explain why half the girls at my fashion school are suddenly heartbroken.” Isabella tilted her head. “Wait, your school?” Lily smirked. “Oh, right. I didn’t tell you this part.” She crossed her arms proudly. “Your boyfriend’s sister, Maya Denovan, is my boss.” “What?” Isabella’s eyes widened. “You’re working under Maya ?”

Now, all he had to do was to wait for Thomas Martin to join the game. Just at that moment, Thomas Martin entered the casino accompanied by two women.
