Pearl's POV The next morning, I went to school alone for the first time without my twin sister. I’d insisted on staying back with her at home but my mom successfully chased me out of the house with a mop stick. Aurora had woken up with a bad fever and she was throwing up, I had to reluctantly leave her side to take my bath. My mom decided to stay back and take her to the hospital for a checkup. Aurora while on her sickbed promised to meet me in school after if she gets better and I made her give me a pinky swear on that. As I got off the bus and the school building came into sight, I sighed and tears threatened to spill but I held it in as I held on to the strap of my school bag and walked in. all eyes were on me and as I walked past them, they were saying something with their eyes and their lips were moving as well. I didn’t care because they were probably saying something about Aurora being absent and suddenly, I got really angry. I got to my locker and opened it, dropping some

Pearl's POV The next day which was supposed to be my free day according to my boss was really a free day but instead of shopping around with his card, I had a different plan in mind. I got dressed in simple jeans and a sleeveless top, with some sneakers, and did light makeup. As I stepped down from the staircase leading to the dining area, my family turned to give me a thorough look from their breakfast table. “What’s going on?” Aurora asked. “Nothing, I just have a free day and I decided to use it for fun,” I answered while grinning at her. I walked towards the table acting as if I didn’t see my mom glaring at me. “That’s great. Would you mind if I joined you?” I fisted my fingers against the apple. “Not really, Aurora. Some other time, we’ll work something out,” I promised her even though I don’t know if that time will ever come up. We barely see each other these days even though we’re living in the same house and are twins. We’ve been inseparable since birth but I feel this

We're getting to see a little about Luke's life in this chapter. Luke’s POV“STOP! PLEASE STOP! I’M BEGGING YOU. HELP ME”I jerked away from the bed as the sound resonated across the house. I could hear footsteps outside my door and then it faded away but the cries for help didn’t. I sat back on the bed and listened to every cry she made. That was my punishment, my punishment for being a coward, my punishment for being a scared motherfucker.My punishment for cherishing my own life over hers. This wasn’t the first and it definitely wouldn’t be the last. At first, I would cry till I couldn’t breathe, at first, I fought it, I fought for her but the more I did, the more I realized how cowardly I was. Instead of helping, I would rather hide away in my room, and force the pillow over my head till I almost suffocate.The cries decreased and all that was left was whimpers and the sound of skin slapping against each other. As I closed my eyes, my subconscious self tried imagining it, and imm

THIS IS 2019Lucas’s POVYou smell really nice! And you look amazing! Those were the two statements that were at the top of my tongue as Pearl walked out of the other room in my penthouse. She had shown up like I told her much to my surprise and the stylist I’d hired had immediately taken her away from my sight while I also tried to get ready.I’d been done for almost thirty minutes but I had to wait for her to get ready. I was angry but all that dissolved when she walked out. As she walked towards me, I couldn't help but stare. The dress she wore clung to her curves in all the right places, and the way it flowed as she moved was mesmerizing. Her hair was styled in loose waves that cascaded down her shoulders, and her makeup was subtle yet striking, highlighting her natural beauty. I felt my breath catch in my throat as she came closer, the way she looked took my breath away. It was as if I was seeing her for the first time, and I couldn't help but feel a deep sense of longing and des

PEARL’S POV A better part of me was happy the whole attention has shifted from me getting engaged to Sebastian but at the same time, I’m sad about the outcome of the situation. The fact that Aurora was now in my shoes seemed weird and selfish to me. It makes me feel as if I gave her some bad luck by letting her go to the party with Sebastian. If only our parents weren’t that cheap! I bite at my lower lip as I walked down the stairs that morning, ready to leave for work. I was hoping to avoid both of my parents and not have any conversations with either of them. It was better that way. As I made my way to the fridge to grab a bottle of water before leaving the house, someone groaned from behind me, I didn’t need to be told, I knew it was my mother. “Are you happy now?” I rolled my eyes. I turned to face her. “Good morning to you too, mother?” She shook her head as she glared at me. The look in her eyes was regret, and whatever accompanied it. On other days I would’ve been intereste
