he started to answer, then chuckled, "you do know that no one uses their real name here, don't you? ...oh no... "I don't understand," I said slowly. "That's kind of the benefit of being here. It's a Masquerade ball. The whole point is to enjoy being someone else." So he could be anybody... "Enjoy being someone else? Like, completely opposite who you really are?"

Her mouth twitched. “You’re changing…..” She said amusement written on her face “Remember when it was a daily reminder that you owned me" I stepped inside, ignoring her words and closed the door behind me. “We’re hosting the Masquerade,” I said. She blinked. “Okay?” “It’s compulsory.” “For you.”

Our target: Jessica’s highly esteemed charity gala—an event she had carefully planned and was set to host in a week. The night before the gala, I put on my most perfect disguise: a sophisticated masquerade mask and an elegant gown that would blend seamlessly with the high-society crowd.

He looks so hot. He smirks at my reaction and leads me out the car. " Excited?" He asks and I nod. " You have no idea how excited I am." I reply and Lance chuckles,amused. " It's worth every excitement you feel, baby doll." We walk hand in hand into the building. When we step inside, I'm met with a classy atmosphere. A woman with a smile on her face welcomes us.

"Well, yes, I need help. But you weren't at the masquerade party, were you?" "What? The masquerade party? The event a few weeks ago? The one where Grace mocked me for a week?" "What? mocked you for a week?" "You know! Because I didn't get the ticket, I wasn't allowed to see her for a week. It's awful, I swear." "Eh? Haha, then I think this will be good for you."
