THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Nine
LISAI keep giving Silas the signal but he doesn't walk out of the room. It's not like he can't see it or doesn't understand, he's just flat out ignoring me. This is something we used to do back then,so I'm a hundred percent sure it's on purpose.When his phone rings,he excuses himself and walks out.Papa seems busy on the phone as well,when he turns away,I take that as an opportunity to follow Silas out.I see him in the hallway and follow him there,his back is to me,so he doesn't notice when I approach him. In that moment, I don't think, it's been months since I last saw him, since I touched him. I wrap my hands around his waist from behind and he startles, then abruptly turns around,making my hands drop from his body."Lisa?" He frowns then looks around behind me with worry etched on his handsome features. "What the hell do you think you're doing?""I wanted to talk to you,you wouldn't listen,so I had to follow you out here."He looks around our surroundings one more time then drag
THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Ten
LOREWhat the hell did I just see? I don't think my eyes and gut deceived me, not this time and not in the next life time.I've always been sharp at picking up hints in a situation, that trait came along handy in my career as a businessman. That's how I grew my empire, how I expanded what was left of my mother's title. My father died when I was just twelve years old, my mother was a dutiful housewife who only focused on me.She and my father loved each other to the core,that's why I grew up believing in true love. When my father died,it was hard for her to pick up on the Noble lifestyle, business wise of course. She was a true lady but when sharks sniff out a weakness,they come for you with a hunger that doesn't seem to be satiated.I knew something was wrong the minute she started entrusting the business to my uncle,my father's younger brother. The man was a sneaky snake hiding in the perfect camouflage. One day we were rich,the next day we were losing everything. When word spread ou
THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Eleven
LOREHillary stares at me like I've grown two heads."Lore,you know that's not a good thought to have. The last time a woman married a Lord by tricking him,she was disgraced and so was was her entire family. They lost their business and honor, their titles too. I don't think anyone would be stupid enough to make the same mistake, besides, that's why there are checkups before marriage nowadays,right?"I think about what she just said and some bit of relief I didn't know I needed washes over me.When she leaves, I'm left with the thoughts of why she even gave me hope that day. Why did she kiss me and act like she didn't want me to stop?After a long day of stressful work, I delay going home because the thought of seeing Mona and enduring her cold attitude towards me is something I don't want to deal with tonight.I stop at a restaurant and have dinner alone,then I finally i head home.It's awfully quiet in the house, my guess is Mona must be in the library, like usual, hiding away from m
THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Twelve
LISALately, I've found myself watching Lore more often. When he's working out, driving, chatting with people and most especially, when he is too focused on his phone and then his brows crease in an attentive way.Today, he seems to be in an awfully bad mood. I wasn't expecting to see him this early at home, it's only three in the afternoon. I was in the garden, tending to my beautiful babies that just blossomed when I saw his car entering the driveway. I thought he just came to pick something up, so I did my thing, took a bath and then grabbed a book from the library to sit at the window that overlooks the beautiful backyard.The idea of focusing on reading immediately vanished from my mind the moment my eyes landed on a very toned and rippled back. Lore.After the wet dream I had about him a week ago, I've been doing my best to stay at a good distance when I'm around him, I'm actually even afraid of sleeping because it might happen again.I, Lisa Morello, had a dream about a man to

LISAIt won't stop, it just won't stop.Even after my hot shower, I can't seem to stop the aching between my thighs.Well, it's not as aching as it was before but it's still silently there, bothering me.Although what bothers me the most is how he kept talking about me being kept busy with something important. I've been very careful, he can't possibly know or suspect something about Silas, right?I stand at the staircase and see him pressing his phone, I slowly walk down the stairs and clear my throat when I'm close to him."I'm ready."He turns around and sweeps his gaze over me. I grip my purse tightly and watch him carefully, afraid he'll corner me again.I'm wearing a green silky dress which reaches my mid thighs, it hangs low on my chest, showing the skin there and is open at the back. I paired it with black string heels and held my hair up in a tight ponytail.I start to think he's going to send me back to change because he's stared for too long. This is the part where papa woul
THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Fourteen
LISALore hasn't been making things easy for me lately, all I can do is think about the way he touches me, the way he looks at me. It's lust,all lust, and that's a road I don't want to take, because if I do, i'll destroy everything. His life, Mona's life, Silas's life and mine.Today, he and I are supposed to attend a charity fundraising donation event for an orphanage.I take out the gift of jewelry papa gave me for my eighteenth birthday, this is actually the first time I'm wearing it. Putting on expensive things has never really been my thing, with that said, I look down at the huge diamond resting on the band on my finger. My wedding ring, I roll it on my finger from side to side and then lift my head to look at myself in the mirror.Lore asked his chauffeur to take me to the event, since he's going to be running late tonight. That's okay though, because I won't be alone, i have Hillary and Maria to keep me company, had it been months before i met them,i would be extremely nervous
THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Fifteen
LISA"Thank you for the generous donations Lore." The chairperson for the fundraising event thanks him. "We really need all the help we can get."He must have donated the time I was having a chat with the little girls.I place my hand on my chest and when my fingers collide with the pendant, I look down at it and a decision suddenly comes to mind."Excuse me?"The man and Lore both turn to face me. "Yes my Lady?""Is the donation still open for tonight?"He looks at Lore,who's eyes never waver from my face,then back at me."We just closed a minute ago, is there a problem?""I would like to donate something."Hillary and Darien come to where we are."Sure, I can make it happen since it hasn't been too long, come with me please.""I'll come along," Hillary links her arm with mine and we walk to the glass boxes.I can feel the weight of people's stares the moment I get to the glass.I reach my hand behind my neck and unclasp the necklace, holding it in my hand,i draw out a deep breath a
THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Sixteen
LISAHillary chats away excitedly, filling Maria who just flew back from Paris in on what happened at the fundraising event."She was so beautiful with the children, they looked at her like she was some fairytale creature they couldn't believe was in front of them, speaking to them."Then suddenly,there's silence, so I turn my head and find them both staring at me as if expecting me to say something."What?" I ask."I just asked if you're okay, Mona. You seem a bit distracted.""I'm okay," I swallow.I've been thinking way too much about what happend the night of the fundraising event. The way Lore spoke about me,the look in his eyes and the way he took care of me after.I thought he was going to want more after the kisses we shared,but as usual, he stopped and took me to bed.ONE MONTH LATERLore has become a very good friend of mine, we are more free around each other and like to have dinner out at his restaurant,which now happens to be my favourite restaurant.I had been sneaking o

THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Forty Five
LORE Pain, Betrayal. Those are the two feelings that hit me the most as I look at the woman who means the world to me in another man's arms. "What the-" Mona's body turns rigid at the sound of my voice. She uses force to push him away and they break apart. Silas doesn't look the least bothered, if anything, he seems even glad that I found them. My wife on the other hand, has fear engraved deep inside her blue eyes. "Lore," she pants. "It's not what you think." I bark out a bitter laugh that has her flinching. I point between the two of them. "Yeah, it sure isn't," I say sarcastically. "My wife was up against the wall eating faces with another man and it's not what I think." She shakes her head with tears running down her cheeks, my eyes go to her lips and her red lipstick is smeared, my lips twisted in disgust. "I didn't kiss him back, I was trying to push him away, I swear." My eyes find Silas, he meets me head in with his, accomplishment shining in them. Before I can sto
THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Forty Four
LORE I trust my wife, the fact that she was acting weird didn't make me doubt her one bit, it just made me worried. The trembling of her body, the thrashing in the middle of the night and mostly, fear in her eyes. I want to believe it's more because of what said about her sister being abused, but there's something more to it, something that makes me feel as though it has to do with me. I came to that conclusion after her asking me if I would forgive her lying to me, while we were married. Could it be because of Silas? Will she confirm cheating on me? I sigh and slam the laptop shut, I stand and walk to the tall glass window and place my hands inside my trousers pockets.Suspecting she was cheating and confirming she was are two different things, especially if the words come straight from her own mouth. There's an event we have to attend tomorrow evening, the governor himself invited us, the one running the event is my mother in law. Another fundraising, this time it's specifical
THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Forty Three
LISA Finally, there's news about Mona, street cameras showed a blue and red bike with a tiger dented on the side, the exact description of the type of bike Asah saw Mona get on the day she ran away from her own wedding. Turns out, they're a very notorious motorcycle club. They're also suspects in female prostitution, robbery and drugs distribution, the police have never found any solid evidence on them, that's why they are still roaming around freely. This information makes me more worried and nervous, what if he's forced her into prostitution. The thought alone has bile rising up my throat. Damnit, Mona. The fact that we know these people's information is enough for uncle to do a private investigation himself, we need to keep outside people away from this as much as possible. Aunt Mandy is a government detective, her involvement will make things easy because of her resources, so her and uncle are doing everything they can without pulling in the government. My phone pings, I ope

LISA Today, I'm on full mommy duty. I smile at Adrian who's smiling back at me in the baby chair. I walk to him with a bowl of cereal. "Who's a good boy?" I smile when he lifts his hands towards the bowl. I sit in front of him and feed him, my phone rings immediately I finish feeding Adrian. An unknown number flashes on the screen, I frown and put my phone on silent. I don't pick up calls from unknown numbers, I never used to back then and that habit has heightened ever since i got married to Lore. The screen blares again with the same number, I don't answer it again, a text follows. Unknown number: Lislis, it's me. Lislis? My heart beats like I just ran a marathon. I'm about to call the number again when an incoming call comes. I quickly hit answer without wasting a single moment. "Hello? Mona?" I get to my feet. I hear panting, not a good type of painting, the 'i'm in pain', type of painting. "Mona, speak to me, please!" I say in a panic. She whimpers an
THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Forty One
LORE I was busy trying to finish up something when my phone rang with Hillary's name flashing on the screen, she was speaking fast until i asked her to breathe and slow down. Apparently, there was a mad driver who almost hit her and Mona. My heart almost tore out of my chest at the mention of my wife being in danger, then she said there seemed something off about the whole situation and my brain went on high alert. "That's the thing Lore," Hillary speaks with her voice surrounded by shock and fear. "I don't think it was by accident, that car was really aiming for Mona." I run my hand over my face as I walk to the glass window in my office with my shoulders tense, I feel like someone is weighing me down by putting bricks on them. "Are you sure?" "A hundred percent, Lore." "How's Mona?" Hillary says she isn't hurt but that doesn't tune down the worry I feel right now. "She's just shaky but don't worry about her too much, I'm taking her home. I didn't tell her my suspic

LISA I stand with my hands crossed over my chest, biting my bottom lip while rolling my teeth into it's cushion. "Lisa." His familiar voice calls out my name. I turn around and his eyes search my face. When he's sure of whatever he wanted to see, he smiles and storms my way, wrapping me in a tight embrace. He sucks in a deep breath,sniffs my hair and sighs. This hug used to mean so much to me during my first days and early weeks of marriage, but now...now it just feels so wrong. I gently push away from him. "Hey," i give him a small smile while putting a distance between us without being too obvious. "Hey, I was so worried about you, you just went mute all of the sudden." "I'm okay, I'm sorry I just shut down on you. A lot was going on." "I see." He takes a step closer and places his hand on my cheek in a very intimate way then says, "I missed you so much Lisa." I tense and step away, his hand drops from my face and he frowns. "What's wrong?" I lick my lips ou
THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Thirty Nine
LORE * *Two Weeks Later* * I move away from Mona and throw my legs off the bed. I place my elbows on my knees and look at her over my shoulder. "Are you sure it's okay?" asking for probably the thousandth time. She rolls her eyes and sighs, leaning up on her elbows, she pushes her hair off her face. "Babe, I already told you the doctor said it's perfectly fine, it's been six weeks. I'm ready for this." Mona and I haven't had sex since she gave birth, after a month, i would get her off with my fingers, but apparently it wasn't enough because the more the sex was held off, the more hornier she got. She might have thought she was ready for sex but she wasn't, i doubt if she is right now, i don't want to risk it, hurting her for pleasure is not something I'm going to bet on. When I

LISA I wake up to an empty bed early in the morning. The bedside clock reads 7:06 pm. I groan into the pillow and then stretch. My phone blares with a message, I unlock the screen and see a message from mama. Mama dearest: Goodmorning sweetie, I hope you and Lore are doing okay, your dad and i are find. Say hi to my grandson and give him a kiss. Love, mom and dad. I smile, my mother is a woman of little words, she's more of a phone call person than texting. I reply and hit send. Me: We're okay, I love you too. I turn around and my hand meets something on the bed, I sit up and lift the envelope. There are words typed on the outside. TO THE MOST IMPORTANT PEOPLE TO ME IN THE ENTIRE WORLD. I open it with a quick beating of my heart, I feel like my heart and my whole world stops all together. This is the famous High Restaurant he owns in the middle of London. The restaurant which became my favourite eating place. There's been a change of name for the restaurant from
THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise Chapter Thirty Seven
LISA The room falls silent and I feel like I can hear the sound of my own heart beating inside my chest. "Mona...I would never do that to you, I can't believe you'd even ask me that. I hadn't spoken to Laura ever since Lore engaged you, she was mad at me for the whole thing, she cut me off and just appeared months ago." I meet her eyes, I believe her, so I turn to the witch herself. "How did you find out?" Lore asks. "Fine, you want to know? I overhead Hillary when she was relating all the stupid details to her little friend over there, I must say, she cursed you a lot Mona." That makes sense, but I also know what she's trying to do, turn me against Maria. I understand how they all felt, I hurt Lore and I deserved everything that was said by everyone in the heat of anger. "I know my friends Laura, you won't turn me against them, I know I messed up, I accepted that and the conseq
