Falling for the Illusion

Falling for the Illusion

My five years of marriage to Elliot Kline turned out to be a cruel joke. "For tomorrow's monthly report meeting, I'd like Yvette to present your branding plan," Elliot said, not looking up from his desk. I put down the files I was organizing, certain I had misheard. "What?" "Yvette just joined the company. She needs a chance to prove herself. Your plan is perfect for that." He lifted his head, his tone brooking no argument. "But that's my entry for the Veriania Creative Competition," I protested. "You win awards every year. What's the harm in letting her have it this time?" He shrugged, adding, "We need to nurture new talent." I stared at the man with whom I had shared a bed for five years. His face suddenly felt so unfamiliar to me. "Do you know how many sleepless nights I poured into that plan? And you're giving it to a new intern?" "Don't be so petty. It's just a plan. My decision is made." My fists clenched, anger surging through me.

TWO LIVES - Shattered Illusion

TWO LIVES - Shattered Illusion

“Are you trying to punish me? I…I don't know how many times I can apologize even if it wasn't my fault that I almost—” “I never asked you to. You do whatever you want, Niya, and I really don't care. Neither should you bother with what I do.” “You're hurt. You're hurt, Alex, and you're acting out. Don't worry we could talk this through. This isn't you.” I try to reach him again but he shoots me a deadly glare that pierces through my skin like a dagger. “Sure it is. You've just never seen me like this. You don't know what I look like when I'm not in love with you,” his brows grow together. “Now we’ve had enough of your drama. You'll find the papers and enjoy the party or use the fucking door.” He pulls away and my eyes cloud again. My ears and heart find it hard to process what is actually going on. The looks on their faces tell me it is awfully too late—I have already lost everything. “Niya, careful now,” my grandmother slowly tugs at my arm as if that will somehow make everything better. “We have guests. Don’t cause a scene.” A scene? I have literally just seen a whole movie, ma. ************* My name is Niya Kendrick. I’m 25, an author who once believed she had the perfect life. But how quickly can everything I love be stripped away in the blink of an eye? Or worse, what if the life, the family I’ve cherished has always been a blatant lie, a mere fragment of the truth? Now, I’m awake, and reality is far harsher than any dream.

Warning: SPG | R18+ Some chapters contain mature content that may not be suitable for young readers. Read at your own risk! "Hindi mo kailangang mahalin ako pabalik. Hayaan mo lang akong mahalin ka kahit sa paraang tahimik." Hindi inakala ni Lorraine Sarmiento na ang bagong trabaho niya bilang executive assistant ng isang multi-billionaire CEO ang magpapabago sa takbo ng buhay niya. Si Alessandro “Sandro” Navarro—isang seryoso, tahimik, at imposibleng basahin na bilyonaryo—ay isang lalaking bihirang magpakita ng emosyon. Pero sa bawat tingin nito sa kan’ya, may tila bumabalot na tensyon. Parang may bigat. Parang may alaala. Hanggang sa isang araw, inalok siya nito ng kasal na labis kinabigla ni Lorraine. Hindi niya inaakalang gano’n kadesperadong makasal ang boss niya. Walang ligawan na nangyari. Walang paliwanag. Isang kontrata lang na may halong emosyon at sikreto. Sa pagdaan ng mga araw, natuklasan ni Lorraine ang dahilan kung ba’t siya inalok ng kasal ng boss niya. Iyon ay dahil kamukhang-kamukha niya ang namatay na fiancée ni Sandro. At ngayon, hindi niya alam kung siya ba talaga ang gusto nito o ang multo ng babaeng minahal nito ng sobra na matagal nang wala. Pero paano kung kailan natutong tumibok ang puso ni Sandro para sa kan'ya… saka naman ito nadulas sa mga palad niya at inangkin ng iba?

The Illusion I Loved Is Gone

The Illusion I Loved Is Gone

I'd loved my childhood friend, Colleen Decker, for ten years, until a car accident changed everything. She loses the ability to walk and never stands again. Her fiance, Ronald Coleman, and other self-proclaimed admirers disappear overnight. Even the Decker family turns their backs on her, cutting her off as the heiress. I'm the only one who stays by her side. I drop out of school and spend two years caring for her, doing everything I can to find the best specialists in the country. However, the moment she gets back on her feet—during the proposal I'd prepared—she announces in front of everyone that she's continuing her engagement to Ronald. When I confront her, Colleen grabs my hand, her voice soft and earnest. "Lucius, I'm not doing this because I want to. I'm marrying him to get back at him for walking away from me back then. You have to believe me. I only love you." But during a game of Truth or Dare, Ronald draws the King card. He points at me and says, "Lucius, choose any girl here and kiss her for one minute." I look to Colleen for help, but she turns her head away. "Don't look at me. I belong to Ronald now."

My husband, Malcolm Thorpe, has low sperm motility. After 33 rounds of IVF, I finally got pregnant. On delivery day, I start hemorrhaging, and the medical team calls for an emergency C-section.

But instead of starting the C-section, the surgeon says, "Ms. Jacobson, the electronic medical record lists you as single. This consent form isn't valid." I stop breathing for a beat. The happy marriage I believe in turns out to be a sham. Later, Mom and Dad rush in and sign the consent for me. But by then, the baby is gone. The asphyxia lasted too long. After surgery, I scrawl my name on the cremation consent with shaking hands, then dial a number without thinking. "Samuel, are you free now? Meet me in front of City Hall."
