Content warning: Mentioned death/illness of a parent, sexual/verbal harassment's, violence, crime and language use.Esrath POV This was too much for me to hold dear to my heart, tears began to rush down my face and chills ran through my body like waves of electricity as I began to try to steady my breathing, I can hear a soft voice talking to me. I look over to see my mother in her navy-blue cocktail dress as she is helping to fix my make up as my tears escape my eyes and a smile breaks out on her face as I look at her. My darling daughter you have made me so proud, I know how much we both have suffered to get to this point in our lives but we need to keep calm before we ruin our make up! Her eyes begin to water as she wafts air toward them and tilts her head upward so no tears escape her eyes, I look at myself in the mirror and see that my nose is a bright red from the crying I have done and my face was becoming puff as well while the makeup artist helps to reapply my perfectly a
The Beautiful Lie Chapter 9 Part 2: Broken and Lost
After everything was said and done was I even able to accept that my mother had once had me violated to save her ass? Or did I need to see that my mother had not changed from that side of her because she was using me and Jose as shelter from those who were after her still while my father was left out in the open having to defend himself against the Mafia and the Boss of said Mafia's wrath that my mother unleashed by running away rather than paying them back to protect not only me but my father who was only trying to free me that night? Had I known the full truth I would have taken my father with me not my mother, I let out a deep sigh of much-needed relief as I rubbed my temples to control the migraine I just earned from overthinking everything, my brain was in need of some relaxation time and I intended to give it the food it desired.

The Beautiful Lie Chapter 10: What's Done is Done.
Jose POV It had been days since I had seen Esrath after what I did to her mother, I vanished out of her sight because the look she gave me burned into the back of my head, there was nothing I could do to make things better, I was couch surfing from one friend to another till one friend was kind enough to let me stay. She told me that what I did was the right thing because that woman deserved to be killed for what she did to Esrath, to lighten the mood she suggested a drinking game and I denied it because I did not trust myself being alone with her while I was sober, let alone drunk. She assured me that it was not going to be just the two of us since she invited her friends over, we all participated in the drinking game however none of us discussed who was to remain sober so we were all tipsy by the third round, I was not sure what was to happen if I kept drinking but I figured we all were adults and knew to keep it PG even when drunk, what I did not expect was to sleep with my friend

The Beautiful Lie Unplanned and Uninvited
Jora's POV As I watched my son and daughter play in the living room I hear a knock on the door, I got up thinking of the time I set for the meeting with Jordan about the company building that I had been in a bidding war with and thought that he was rather early for the set time we agreed upon, opening the door I stopped in my tracks looking at the man in front of me, he was wearing a white suit that looked expensive as his beard was well maintained, his eyes were a deep Hazel and looked dangerous as he stared at me as if he was staring at a ghost, his hand was clasped on his wrist adjusting his watch as he began to speak. " I know that I was to show up around noon, but I have other business to attend to, so I was hoping..." his words fell when he looked at me and took a step forward to make sure he was not seeing things, then his hands gripped my hips as he attempted to pull me to him when we heard a small voice yelling at another small voice, I pushed him away from me and shut and

One of the grey wolves howls out that stills the noise for a second when he cries out MATE, my eyes widen when the black wolf behind me jumps over me to shield my body from the grey wolf that had just set claim to me, his body was built with muscle and his aura was deathly. He snarled at the grey wolf as to challenge him for me; I sat there confused as to why he was so angry that he called me mate, a mere stranger that I never met was willing to risk his life for a banished woman that he knew nothing of. His teeth bared as his hair stud straight up on his back, his massiv

My father for once raised his voice to her when we reached the door way, "Rosa Madeline Franco! how is our daughter going to learn how to do this on her own if you wont allow her to do it herself?!" my mother looked at him shocked that he raised his voice to her for the first time and she wasnt able to respond with a whitty comeback for it, my mouth gaped open as i whitnessed the first day my mother was speechless for once and actually allowed me to do something on my own without pestering me every second for her to do it for me. It was such a freeing moment for me till my mother had to drive me to my new house, I was not too happy about that but till I was retaught how to drive without being able to use my legs I had no other choice.

I rub my eyes in hopes to wake them up and search with my hands for my wheelchair to get out of my bed and get ready for today, I call for my father and mother to say good morning only there was no response other than the noise coming from the bathroom across the hall, I yawn and call for Malvatoff to aid me in reaching my wheelchair all the while my eyelids were being so stubborn and sleep was pushing on my body as much as possible; flinging the covers off of me I adjust myself to the edge of my bed only to come to my senses tha

The Beautiful Lie Chapter 8: The Ugly Truth
My heart felt heavy and my body was shaking as my chest felt tight at the words that he said to me that night, I had not spoken to him since due to the information that was finally brought forward to my attention. I felt anger and betrayal from the man I chose to put my trust in; my trust was now dissipating from all the lies he had held behind my back, though I wanted to always be near him because I longed for his tough my heart and mind were at war constantly over whether or not I should trust him again. He called all the time to try to speak to me and I ended up turning my phone off to have some silence for one, I was so angry that he held so much information to himself and didn't bother to even tell me what was going on and why he was really there to help me escape. I felt nasty and betrayed and my heart that had held hatred for my father cried for him because I realized my father was trying to protect me from the guy I was escaping with; my mother remained silent after that inf

**Distant chatter coming from down the hall** Random girl #1:” God Esrath is such a dweeb; she thinks that we are friends and honestly if her parents weren't loaded, I would have hit her with my car; like ugh she is so ugly and annoying!” Random Girl #2: “I know and the way she dresses makes me want to hurl!” Macy: “I mean I am only friends with her because her parents paid me to be nice to her since I was 5, otherwise I wouldn’t even care to be around her. An extra 5k a month has been really good lately!” I could feel the tears burning my eyes, why was I remembering this now? And why is it that I can't feel my legs or arms? I look around and feel my chest was super tight and it was like if my body was trying to keep the air out of my lungs, before I knew it, I was under water being chocked by Macy who looked like she couldn’t breathe herself, I try to help her but before I could I was thrown to the house my father had me and my mother trapped in...

Esrath: "Wow her acting is so lame!" Mother: "It is not lame, its good and I am on the edge of my seat to see what will happen next! Now zip it and let me watch my movie!" I sigh and look at the movie she was watching then back at her to say something to her and see her wording each line, rolling my eyes I get off the bed as I head to the kitchen to get me a snack. José was at work and I go to text him but no answer, was he freaked out with what I told him that night?

Following him to the bed that was there I could feel butterflies in my stomach, my nerves made my body vibrate at the thought of being with such a gentleman. He pulls me close and kisses my jawline and caresses my back. José: “if you are nervous my love, we can wait till we are out of here.” I frown and know that there is no escape and tell him: Esrath: “No I want you now while I am able!” I could feel his heart drop at my words, he looked me in the eyes and placed his forehead on mine and kisses it.
