What Beauty Can Disguise Koin He and Connor had taken their seats again, watching from a distance as his mother moved around the circle with some kind of herb, smoke wafting from it in heavy plumes as she whispered something. Then Ordia came into view, slowly, studying Rehida. Connor sat up a little "Over here" He whisper yelled to her, but she never looked in their direction. She was very focused on what Rehida was doing, her eyes moving over the circle slowly.

Leonard must have figured me out by now. He knew I was the type who acted shy on the outside but had secret desires underneath. After a few moments of teasing, he pulled me into another round, and we kept going until we were both completely worn out. When I was ready to leave, he insisted that I did not put my underwear back on. He said he wanted to keep it as a souvenir. I did not want to, but I could not argue with him, so I just did what he said. My stockings were already torn, so I could not wear those either. I took them off and went home wearing only my skirt.

Because you should terrify me and somehow… you don’t. A hundred reasons. All of them unsaid. What came out instead was the truth. “Because you’re still a secret, I don’t know how to archive.” His eyes narrowed, tension in his body just barely visible, but there. As if he hadn’t expected that. As if no one had ever considered he might be something more than a weapon or a threat. Something that might be cataloged instead of buried. A secret worth keeping. Even if I couldn’t articulate why.

"Please? I promise I’ll stay far away from you and won’t cause trouble." In the end, he couldn’t refuse me. However, he gave me one condition. "You have to wear a mask the entire time. Nobody can see your face." I agreed instantly. That was exactly what I wanted anyway. That night, I slipped into the evening gown I’d prepared in advance, paired it with glamorous makeup, and appeared at the gala entrance beside Jenson in my official role as Mrs. Bailey. The entire ride there, he maintained a cold expression as he repeatedly warned me, "Keep your mouth shut in there. Don’t embarrass me."

We had weathered storms and overcome obstacles, emerging stronger and more resilient each time. But just when we thought we had conquered all challenges, fate had a new twist in store for us. One evening, as we were preparing for a glamorous charity event, a mysterious package arrived at our doorstep. It was an intricately decorated box with a handwritten note attached. Curiosity piqued, we opened the box to find a beautifully crafted mask, adorned with jewels and feathers. The note read, "An invitation to the Masquerade of Secrets. An evening of intrigue and revelations. Your presence is requested."

Like she was empty of tears. "The mask was a gift from my mom, someone I thought I lost long before I lost my dad, I survived with an injury on my face that the doctors said would scar me. Everyone hated me after that, for taking away their alpha, for being weak and ugly." Lennox's hand came around her and held her close as she exposed more of herself. "The mask was a way of hiding my face so I don't disgust people but more than that it was what helped me stay close to my parents even when the wound was gone, I couldn't be without the mask."

What if it's not working properly? The thought made his blood run cold. If his scent blocker was compromised, if it wasn't masking his true nature, then everyone would know. Everyone would smell what he really was. I can't take that risk. Jason put the vial back and moved to his closet. Behind a stack of old textbooks, he found what he was looking for. A backup vial he had hidden weeks ago. Emergency supplies for emergencies. This is definitely an emergency. He opened the backup vial and applied it carefully. The familiar scent filled his nostrils, comforting and terrifying at the same time. This was what kept him safe. What kept his secret hidden.

"I’ll come back. When I can stand beside you without hiding. When I can look you in the eye and know that what we have is real." "And until then, I’m supposed to pretend you didn’t mean anything to me?" She smiled sadly. "No. Just remember me kindly. That’s all I ask." They stood in silence, the garden swaying softly around them. "You know," Ethan said finally, trying to lighten the mood, "I always wondered if the mask was hiding some hideous deformity or if you were just trying to look mysterious." She laughed through her tears. "Maybe both. I do have a slightly crooked nose."

I had been able to see the labels above people's heads ever since I was little. When I was three, my grandpa held a family dinner at his house. Dad showed up with his secretary, Vivian Clarke. The moment she walked through the door, she went straight to Mom's seat. She rubbed her lower back and smiled sweetly. "Mrs. Lincoln, I hope you don't mind. Mr. Lincoln and I have been working on a project all day, and we're exhausted." I looked around the room. Above Eric's head was a glaring label. "Cheater." Above Mom's head was a dull gray label. "Loser." And above Vivian's head was a brightly shining label. "Ultimate gold digger." I immediately tugged on Eric's sleeve and asked loudly, "Dad, what
