Lyra's POV

Asher was speechless, his eyes fell on my face then they trailed down to the dress I was wearing and then back to my eyes. He wasn't moving at all and only just staring like he was a statue.

The sudden attention I was getting from him was a tad too much. I tried to hide my hot cheeks away so that he wouldn't see the color in them even though I was wearing makeup. It wasn't like the makeup was just so perfect either, the foundation wasn't full coverage, my pimples were still very much on display but they were only a bit sort of smoother.

It didn't look as disgusting as it used to be.

I didn't know what was going on through Asher's head but the way he was looking at me, I could tell that he thought I looked beautiful. His eyes were not drifting from me and it was making my heart pound harder by the second.

I felt a hand wrap around my waist and a slight pull. It was Philip, he had hisnhand on my waist and he pulled me closer to.himself for reasons I could not guess. He was sm

    Lyra's POVPhilip took me to a really fancy restaurant, I never ever in my life thought that I would be in such a place. There were so many classy and important looking people in the restaurant. I felt very left out.However, Philip took my hand and led me inside. From the way the servers treated him, it seemed like he was a very important person to the society, like he was really well known and it was truthfully shocking but also kind of expected.With my hand in his, he led me to the table sitting in the middle of the restaurant. We successfully gained stares from the neighbours and I could tell that they were looking at my face. I wanted to die, I wanted the earth to open up and swallow me, I wanted my existence to end but it couldn't. They were all judging me by now I looked, probably wondering what sort of guts I had for bringing such a hideous face out and not just that, I even applied makeup. I was laughable to be

    Lyra's POVI didn't expect that another pimple would suddenly pop out of my face now and even Philip knew of it. It could be the makeup, it must be as a result of the makeup and so I quickly rushed back into the changing room, there was a mirror there I could check my face with.When I got there, I looked over my face wondering if I could see the puss licking out of the pimple but there was nothing. I frowned instantly, I figured that this was Philip's way of messing with me. It was a bit unpleasant because it was a nightmare to have a pimple suddenly pop out of nowhere especially when I was on a date.I walked back out, dispirited. I wondered if he was making fun of how I looked. I knew more than anyone that I was ugly. Despite myself, I recalled when Asher and Devlin had been looking at me weirdly, they had been scrutinizijg my face. It was when those rogues had kidnapped me thinking I nwas Devlin, before my whole life fell apart.I remembered how disgusted Asher had looked when he

    Lyra's POVWhen those words left Philip, I was shocked. I didn't expect that we would be sharing a room together, I thought we were going to get separate rooms just because I was pregnant and also because I was not ready to do anything with him.However, just because we were going to share a room together did not meam that anything of any sort could happen between us. I looked at Philip as he took the room keys from the receptionist.He took my hand and led me to the elevator."You look scared," he suddenly said, "what's on your mind?"I couldn't tell him what I was thinking, I couldn't tell him the thoughts that were going through my mind because they were truthfully insulting to him so I shook my head and decided to settle for a half truth.He didn't need to know the rest. All it entailed were thoughts against him, my fears and insecurities, my worries and shame and I didn't want him to know any of them. He shouldn't see me like someone like that."It's my first time in sucn a place

    Lyra's POVI was shocked, my eyes kept darting all around the room wondering what he wanted to try on me. It sounded so casual but my thoughts were going over and under. It was quite uneasy for me. I was scared and worried for no reason.He focused on something on his phone, probably thinking that I was already on my way to have my bath, but instead I was standing there like a sort of statue just staring at him, wondering what it could be that he wanted to try. My thougjts were shamefulz I kept looking over so many things in my head, the ones I've reas about, the ones I've heard and the ones I've seen and they were all inclining towards something sexual.I couldn't be blamed for thinking this way. He had brought me to a hotel for whatever reason and we were alone and he wanted to trg something on me. My eues then suddenly fell on the beds, they were two beds and they were made for just one person to occupy, vividly in a rectangular shape.If he wanted to try something sexual with me,

    Lyra's POV.I couldn't move my eyes away frim him. It coukd be because he was right in my face but I doubted that. Philip had a way of enticing me, making himself the focus of my attention. I couldn't tell if he was doing it on purpose of if ut was oureky coincidental, but surely there was something about him that was intriguing.I gave it a hard thought and settled on the ides that it was because he was focused on me. He had said he woukd marry me, take care of me and this is despite knowing that I was pregnant for someone else. Philip was differnt from people ive seen before and he was provoking differnt feelings for me that i could hardly decipher. I was new to these kind of things and i wasnt really thw adventurous type but Philip's attutude towards me was making me embark on a journey."Why?" I had to ask.I couldn't help the questions bubbling in my heart. He was too kind to me for someone who had no benefits from beinh kind. I believed that though he was a good person, he would

Well, he wasn't as disturbed as I was, instead he was happy about the time they were spending together.From the oitfit and the makeup, I'd have taken it that they were going out on a date to get to know each other but a date that lasyed for more than two days is a bit od a stretch. They weren't back and it's been more than a couple of days. I wondered what they were wearing, where they were sleeping and if they were washing their teeth.It wasn't something I shoukd bother myself with, but i couldn't help it.

I suddenly got tired and then I left the party after searching around for the both of you. What would make you think I'm lying?"She suddenly went quiet and her whose focused somewhere else, "what are you saying?" She asked, "Philip isn't with you?"I shook my head, "he isn't, and if you say he's not here then I have no fucking clue where he is".

The spaces between people kept getting more narrow and weaving through them became a huge hassle.I downed the alcohol in a go and then kept the glass on a nearest table before finding a way to swim through the sea of people, so that I could use the bathroom.I didn't even know where the bathroom was located.I looked around some more. Everybody wore masks and I was sure even the celebrant had her own mask. I suspected this because everywhere I've looked, I haven't seen her face. Akk I could see were different colors, shiny or dull and just eyes.I wasn't particularly looking for her fir I had nothing to say to her, anybody that could lead me to the bathroom right now was going to do me a huge favour."Asher?"I immediately turned around and saw a woman standing behind me.She wore a silver dress embedded with stones that glistened under the light. Her hair was shirt and brown and so were her eyes.

Only a few people were on the dancefloor doing nothing really amazing.As we walked further into the place, a waiter holding a tray approached us holding a tray of masks and then presented it to us.Asher picked one and then Lyra did before i settled for mine.I looked at the two of them first and saw the design of their mask, Lyra's own had feathers, jt was blue with shiny stones and quite beautiful to look at.Asher picked something more manly, it was plain black and had nothing quite noticeable. He just tied it around hisbface and instantly he blended with the group. So djd Lyra.I did the same."Well," Asher said, "be careful". Again he was here with his advice.
