Secret Bella の小説・ストーリー

As the elevator doors closed, he gave her a sidelong glance. “Same room,” he reminded her casually. “Yes, yes, I know,” she muttered, wishing she had a helmet, a shield, and a dramatic exit strategy all at once. And yet, as the elevator hummed upward, she realized it was strangely exhilarating. Adrian Blackwood had a way of making disaster feel like… temptation. And Lola, much to her annoyance, was already caught.

My phone buzzed again-another message from Lia. "I told you I have proof. Meet me tomorrow. I'll show you." I stared at the screen, heart pounding. Part of me screamed to delete the message, to burn the bridge Lia was trying to build back into my life. But curiosity-a dangerous, foolish curiosity-won. I replied simply, "Okay." The next day, I met Lia at a quiet park. She had a folder in her hand, something thick and heavy with secrets. As she handed it over, her eyes gleamed with victory.

Lily turned and walked out. I watched her leave, then pulled out my phone. I opened a secure line and made a call. "Phoenix? This is Aurora Arkin." It was the first time I had ever spoken my true last name inside Thorne Industries. "Yes. I need to consult you on a unilateral breach of secret investment contracts. Evidence? I have it all. Every contract, every wire transfer." I hung up and opened a hidden wall safe in my office. Inside were all the investment contracts signed under the "Arkin Trust."

Cara's parents had been calling her phone nonstop. She was not picking up. She had been sitting on the floor of the rented apartment we had shared. The room was dark. She was knotted into a corner. Wave after wave of someone else's pleasure rolled through her body. She didn't know whose; she knew what it was. She had been with enough men to recognize the feeling. Her own body kept answering it. Hazel took me to a hotel banquet hall on a quiet morning. When we walked in, I saw a row of people standing there.

I didn't want to wait another second. Three days later, at the memorial service held for Elara, every lavishly dressed guest found a strange recording crystal at their seat. Confused, they activated them, only to uncover a chilling truth. The images revealed a horrifying secret. It showed a ten-year-old Selene, her face twisted in a snarl as she pushed me into the icy river, trying to drown me forever. Time flowed on, and the scene shifted to her sordid double life. Behind her mate's back, she spent her nights in a secret basement, her scent mingling with that of other male wolves. Her depraved nature, hidden beneath a mask of purity, was recorded in excruciating detail.

Bella asked as she came out casually. “How~~” Ciel pointed. “How did you know that?” He frowned. Bella smirked. “The agency had the blueprint of the castle. The secret blueprint that contains the secret passages. But somehow the passage to the King’s secret door was not in there. I am currently venturing into more areas.” She said casually. She approached them and closed the secret passage. She sighed and looked at the spot where they were looking. “I think I saw a vault in there and I think it was bigger. We might need to close the curtains and doors.” Bella said. “Also, who else knows this vault?” She asked.

My heart sank as anger boiled beneath the surface. "What the hell is this?" I demanded. "Oh, Richard," Nadia said, her voice mockingly sympathetic. "When I saw that video, I couldn’t believe it myself. I had to send my assistant to investigate. And guess what? It was Tammie who leaked it." My grip tightened around the phone. "That’s not possible." "It is," she insisted. "She’s not who you think she is. You deserve better than this, Richard. You know where to find me if you need someone who truly cares."

Elara said with a frown. Later that morning, Lila went to the Healing House. She found one of her former close friends, a girl named Sienna, sorting herbs alone. “Sienna,” Lila said calmly. “Can I talk to you for a moment?” Sienna looked surprised but nodded. “What do you want?” Lila took a deep breath. “I know you have a secret the one about you meeting a rogue wolf last month. I won’t tell anyone… if you help me.” Sienna’s face paled. “How did you?”

Sienna: You’re joking. Matteo: I genuinely wish I was. Sienna laughed so hard she nearly dropped her phone. Matteo: And now you have a key. Matteo: Honestly I’m emotional about it. Sienna: Why? Matteo’s answer came slower this time. Matteo: Because he looks peaceful with you. --- Theo and Sienna Theo: Emilia told me about the key. Sienna: Why is everyone in Monaco informed immediately? Theo: Rich people gossip faster than journalists.

she sighed. “Then keep your cell phone. The bad guy will be happy to know that Max is trying to reach you. He could have taken advantage of that fact.” With a heavy heart, Gabriella put the cellphone in her bag. Her mind was still on her husband who must be worried about her. "Do you want me to accompany you?" Sebastian asked with a brow raised up. "This is a secret meeting, Bas," Gabriella repeated. A second later, she cast a glance at the magnificent building that resembled a palace. After exhaling faintly, the woman opened the car door and said, "I'll finish it quickly."
