The Liar Nora Roberts Novels & Stories

"Tell me where your men took my children, Pablo." Pablo frowned slightly, a brief flicker of confusion crossing his disciplined features. "I don't know what you're talking about. My orders are to secure you and bring you back upstairs to the Alpha. That's it." "Liar!" she screamed, the sound tearing from her throat, bouncing off the concrete pillars. At just twenty-three, Nora had lived through more betrayal and heartbreak than most wolves endured in a lifetime. She had clawed her way up from the dirt, built a life, and protected her blood. She refused to let them strip it all away in a dirty, concrete basement.

"Nora! Please, don't let them do this. I can't go back down there. That place is barely fit for animals!" I smiled, though there wasn't any warmth in it. "Anna managed three years down there just fine. What's your excuse?" Rhett broke free and threw himself at my feet, grabbing onto me with both hands. "Nora, I was wrong. I was manipulated. Anna was a liar, and she deceived me from the start!" I crouched down and patted his cheek. "She deceived you, sure. But you didn't exactly hate it, did you? You loved feeling needed."

Outside, I saw her soldiers waiting, armed and in position, wolves prowling around like they were ready to pounce. My blood went cold. They had known I’d come here—they had set a trap. “How did you even find this place?” I glared at Holly. “Your dear little friend Nora told me.” Holly’s smirk deepened. “Words say that you Northerners take pride in your loyalty. But turns out that’s all just a rumor.” “NO WAY! Nora would never betray me!” I snapped. She chuckled, flashing her teeth. “Oh, she held out alright…Until I chopped off Liam’s pinky right in front of her. One finger down, and she spilled everything.”

“I’m tired, Nora. I don’t know what to do.” “I hate that you have to go through things like this,” Nora continued, her voice laced with disgust. “Why would he continue lying after you’ve already caught him?” “I don’t know,” I replied shamefully. “He’s manipulating me and gaslighting me. I almost believed him. But I asked him to leave because I needed time to process everything.” “And the worst part was that he acted so shocked when I reached out to him earlier. I thought he would even have a reasonable explanation for you, but now, I’m really disappointed.”

Never. "You are really a good actress, I must say. But your biggest mistake is trying to frame my Zan. My husband. That man over here loves me. Only me. There's hundreds of bitches trying to snatch him from me. But none of them ever succeeded. You know why? Because this man loves me. Only me. He feels disgusted when someone else than me touches him. I have spend five years of my life with him and you think you could just sneak in my room and then sleep on my bed naked when my husband was in washroom and break what we have build over the years in an instant? I knew something was wrong when I got a text from Rose' number telling me to come home ASAP. Rose never texted me in those past five yea

"What I want to know is how you can think about all these. Your thoughts process, everything," Nora closed her eyes for a few seconds before opening them to reveal her dark green orbs that concealed pure despite. "Because I should know it, obviously. That's what I do. I do computers and logical thinking. I can't say that for most of the men you call your aides." Quentin and Four openly glared at her and she smiled at each of them. Perverted lots. Pretenders. "Nora." Walter's voice was testing. "Yes, darling?" Her voice dripped with sarcasm. ", I already explained what happened. I don't know what else you want me to do."

Tears spill down her cheeks now. “He seduced me… manipulated me… and I gave in.” “Lies,” I spit immediately, my voice coming out sharp as a blade. “You expect me to believe that?” “I don’t blame you if you don’t,” Nora says softly, lowering her gaze. “And I know none of that excuses what I did.” Silence stretches painfully, and then slowly, she reaches into her pocket. My body instantly tenses, but instead of a weapon, she pulls out a small bottle filled with silver liquid.

Nora's tearful apologies fell on deaf ears as I walked away, determined to put the past behind me and focus on rebuilding my shattered life. It wasn’t until later that I learned the full extent of Nora’s betrayal. A mutual acquaintance had informed me of her secret affair with another man—a revelation that cut me to the core. How could she have thrown away everything we had built together for a fleeting moment of passion? Nora's betrayal didn't stop at infidelity. In a desperate attempt to salvage her reputation and tarnish mine, she resorted to spreading a malicious lie—a fabricated narrative that painted me as something I was not. My mind drifted back to the horrible memory.

But she was certain she had fallen into an elaborate trap. With his family using despicable means to destroy everyone around him, can Liam successfully get her out of that hell house? How will Nora survive living under the same roof with the person who’s been nothing but a nightmare all her life while learning his darkest secrets that would entangle them together and bring their entire world crashing down with it? -

Hoping I’d heard wrongly. “I can’t do this anymore.” Sapphire breathed heavily, her voice cracking as she continued. “Every day I wake up feeling like a stranger in my own home. I can’t keep wallowing in guilt. My husband… my kids… I can’t… keep lying to them!. I will do anything. Anything to get out of…” “So what are you gonna do about it?.” Lyra asked, cutting in. “You shouldn’t be here if you are so sure of what you want, my dear. You should be at the Don’s… tea-talking with Lazarus.”
