Novel & Cerita Love In Disguise

Ginger interjected and I sighed. "Like is different and love . . " I trailed off and all three of them clasped their hands together in eagerness. I couldn't stop thinking about what happened between Noah and me a few hours ago. I didn't think he loved me or even like me for that matter. It had been only a month since we met . . . I might have had a thousand reasons to fall in love with him, but it was obvious that nobody in their right sense,would fall in love with a weird, clumsy nerd which was me, Amelia Parker. I wished that only, if only I wasn't in this ugly disguise . . . "Everyone saw you both, holding each other and you both looked truly, deeply and madly in love!"

Its gentle light made the love in our eyes shine even brighter. Before I realized it, our lips touched, and we kissed like we’d been waiting forever for that moment. That kiss, mixed with the taste of our tears, made the world around me disappear. I couldn’t think, I couldn’t care about anything else. I’m done with disguises, with lies, with the hidden truth. F*** my identity. Never again. I won’t be a coward. I will stand firm as a brave princess and give myself fully as a loving companion.

And I crushed that within seconds because that’s what I do—I break things, sometimes beyond repair. Why did I even go with the Jay disguise? To get close to her, to understand her, and to bring her back. All checkboxes ticked, but at what cost? She opened up to Jay in ways she never will with Roman. So, who is she really in love with? And what does that make me? A victor or a fraud?

‘I’m not impressed with anything I’ve to hide from you but if I do ,you need to understand me ,’ he said with remorse " what else are you hiding ? ."Loveth walked closer to him quickly. Loveth disguised a little swallow as her gaze dipped to his mouth. She was so close to him she could see the pepper of dark stubble on his face as if he had skipped shaving that morning. It gave him an arrantly masculine look that was devastatingly attractive. He held her hand slowly but she tried to edge her fingers away from his but somehow one of his hands had come down over both of hers, trapping them beneath his.

Or maybe, deep down, I knew there was no right way to say, I’m leaving, but I never wanted to. Then came the hardest thing I’ve ever done; I walked away. I walked into a life I didn’t choose, wearing a tuxedo I hated, beside a woman I couldn’t love. Eleanor was kind. Smart. Classy. She didn’t deserve half a man, but that’s all I was. I tried to be good to her. I smiled in public. Played the part. But every time she touched me, I flinched. Not out of disgust but because it reminded me of what I lost.

"I've prepared an anniversary present for you too." I looked into his eyes, which were filled with love, and for a moment, I was puzzled by it. It never occurred to me that a person could put up such a convincing act of being in love with someone he was not. That night, I tossed and turned in bed, unable to go to sleep. I accidentally knocked his watch onto the floor. That was when I noticed Yvonne's name engraved on the inner side of the strap. It was at that very moment that I lost all hope in Chris.

She had written that she wanted to have dinner with me on the rooftop of a restaurant. I did not reply. I already had plans to eat with a friend at night. But I did not expect Jade to convince my friend to bring me to that same restaurant. When we got there and I saw her, I gave my friend a sharp look. He pointed ahead, looked really awkward, and quickly left. Jade walked up to me with another bouquet of flowers. “I’m sorry. “I knew you wouldn’t come on your own, so I had to trick you a little. “Your friend didn’t know. I lied to him.”

She turned back and walked towards Kyle, she looked at him before looking at me, with a glare "No one will ever love you, you will never get a man as good as Kyle. You are pathetic Tara, sorry to say but no one likes a girl who keeps secrets from her boyfriend." Damn, she always gets me, I hate the fact she always gets to my head. She turned back and was about to leave when I stop her, I walked towards her and stood right in front of her, staring into her eyes "For your kind information Maria, you are the pathetic one, not me, if I remember clearly, Kyle didn’t cheat on me, actually, we were playing each other." I said before I looked at Kyle. It hurts me to lie but I have no other choice, I

I recognize the voice to belong to Travis Richardson, our house's head of security. I look between the door, Janice and her unknown friend repeatedly. Janice just stands there with her hands crossed across her chest,staring back at me with expressionless eyes. Her face is stilled masked like it was last night but I can easily make out that it's her. Her friend suddenly goes on her knees and starts rubbing her palms together, "Sir, please! Sir all we did was come to take food because we are hungry, please pity..." She starts to sob in a loud whisper. Janice pauses her speech by putting her right hand over her friend's mouth, the other hand lying on her waist.

My eyes never stopped searching for any sign of the man behind the mask, but all I found was the cold, distant figure of Damien Sterling, the man who now claimed me as his wife. As I took my seat among the guests, the reality of the union sank in deeper than ever before. I was no longer Aurora—the girl with dreams of freedom and love untainted by expectation. I was now a symbol of an alliance, a piece in a grand, impersonal strategy. And as the last echoes of the ceremony faded into the background, the memory of that intense, lingering kiss remained—a bittersweet taste of what could have been, forever trapped between duty and desire.
