The Deception Trilogy Novels & Stories

Abby barked one morning, “enough of the games. Every secret, every lie—exposed or not—I will find it. Step aside.” Jake’s smirk was infuriating. “You act as if you control the world, Abby. Some truths are beyond your reach. Some alliances are untouchable.” Abby’s jaw clenched. “You underestimate me. One more move like this, and you’ll regret it.” His wife trembled. “I… I can’t undo what’s been done. I’m trapped.” “Trapped?” Abby snapped. “You’ve chosen deception over honesty. That choice ends tonight.” Sandra’s Pressures

The truth that I had been trying to ignore for the past few weeks was becoming harder to deny with each passing hour and I knew very soon Annie would become my greatest weakness that my enemies could exploit to bring me down. That realization should have made me push her away and cut all ties before it was too late but instead I found myself pulling her closer and deeper into my world where she would be surrounded by violence and death at every turn. I had been feeling something different with her since the exact moment I realized she wasn't Claire and that the woman standing in front of me was someone entirely separate from the person I had been hunting for weeks. The anger I felt when I di

“So… did she win?” “Yes, for a time, she believed she had won,” the Sage said. “But immortality isn’t for the living; it was a facade. The souls she took began to hollow her from within. Their whispers drove her mad. In the end, Death stripped her of her power and cast her into the space between worlds. Some say she still wanders there, trapped between life and nothingness.” She stood up staring straight at me. I don't understand Why is she telling me all this

“The lagoon never happened. You hear me? It stays between us. Nobody can ever know I drove into that water. Not a single soul.” I crossed my arms, mirroring him. “Fine. It stays between us. But you deleted everything you saw in my phone. Every call log, every message, every trace of Quinn. We pretend none of this exists. That’s the only way this works.” He stopped a few feet away, eyes burning. “You really think it’s that easy? You pull a man out of the water who didn’t want to be saved, and now we’re suddenly supposed to trust each other? Why did you do it, Rosa? Tell me the truth. Why jump into a lagoon for me?”

"It is not without logic." "Yes," Sera said. "Their definition of deception is doing significant work," he said. "If the panel accepts that concealing her voice constitutes material deception the argument holds." "If," Cress said. "If," Finn confirmed. He looked at the document. "The question is what the concealment was in response to," he said. "Deception implies intent to deceive for personal gain." He looked at Sera. "What were you concealing from?" Sera looked at him. "A structure designed to punish accurate perception," she said.

"Bodies found in the river with their tongues cut out. Families who disappeared overnight because someone thought they could lie to us and live to tell about it." Oh God. Oh God, oh God, oh God. The room started to spin around me. Every breath felt like I was drowning, every heartbeat like a countdown to my own execution. Because I was lying to them. Every moment of every day, I was living the biggest deception possible—pretending to be Isabella when I was actually Sophia. Pretending to be the bride they'd contracted for when I was just the desperate replacement no one was supposed to know about. They're going to find out. Somehow, someday, they're going to discover the truth, and then...

With one long, final thrust, he roared his own pleasure and spilled into her depth. A few hours later, Ashton sat alone in the rolling carriage, gazing idly at the snowy countryside whirling past the window. It never once crossed his mind that he would ever resort to this kind of deception and betrayal. As the saying goes, one lie leads to another, and now he was trapped in his own web of deceit, left with no other choice but to continue lying.

Not the last bastion of a defeated people, as the stories claimed, but a hidden faction that stayed behind, defiant or foolish, I couldn’t yet decide. Everything I ever knew was a lie, a tale of half-truths woven by those who had won the right to write history. The realization settled over me like a heavy blanket but beneath it, a fire kindled. Klaus and Alicia had played their parts in this grand deception, scheming to bury me beneath their ambitions. They would pay for it, not with the impulsive wrath of my wolf or the reckless blaze of my witchfire, but with a vengeance calculated that would take them by surprise.
