All Chapters of The Rumors Are True: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

MISHA COVERED HER mouth to stop herself from giggling as she was being tickled by the soft kisses Soren was planting on her neck. And then she remembered that just a few moments ago, she was scared of losing her virginity, and now she was happily giddy—Soren’s kisses really had their way of making her forget everything.Soren finally lifted his head from her neck and went back to her lips and gave it a passionate, kiss, then, he stared at her deeply into her eyes again, a stare so intense she thought he was trying to melt her with his eyes. And there she was, at that moment, still hungover with the intoxicating kisses she just received from him, like a submissive drunk, ready to yield to anything he wanted to do, ready to accompany him to wherever he wanted to go, as long as his lips would never abandon her lips.He only had to tell her.“I love you,” he said to her, almost a whisper while he caressed her arm with his hand, those three words had made a home in his lips. “I’ll never ge

MISHA STOOD UP bolt upright while retaining eye contact with her sister. “Kayla Cortez is here? In our house?” she asked Ruth.“Yes,” Ruth answered and crossed her arms on her chest, annoyance visible on her face. “And she’s looking for you.”“Why is she looking for me?” she asked. Yeah, really, why? Was she going to ask her personally to quit the project from Starshine? Then, that would just confirm that Kayula was one crazy gal.Ruth shrugged and walked away, taking the direction towards her own room.“Kyla is there?” Misha heard Maggie asking behind her.She closed her door and went back to her laptop and looked at Maggie. “Yes.”“Should we call the cops?” Maggie asked and smiled a visibly annoyed smile.“I don’t think she’s here to kill me.”“We don’t know that,” Maggie shot back.“You want us to go there?” Yana asked, seriously.She looked at Yana. “She’d long be gone before you can get here,” she said because she had no plan of talking to Kayla. The only words she’d probably tel

“WE TOLD YOU to stay away from him,” Misha’s mother said, her voice sounding frustrated. “Why are you disobeying us?”“I love him,” Misha said shyly.She saw Ruth’s smile grow bigger while her mother’s eyes squinted more.“I thought we were all on agreement that he’s not a good man?”“He is a good man, ma,” she argued.“Oh, do you have proof on that? Or it’s just a love-is-blind kind of thing?”“I’m in love but my mind’s still open and functional, ma.”Her mother sighed. “That’s not actually the point, Misha, the point here is you disobeyed us. You agreed that you’d avoid him, but not only that you didn’t avoid him, you even went into a relationship with him. You’re a really nice daughter before you met him.”“Ma, I’m still a really nice daughter. I went into a relationship with him because I saw that he’s good. I talk to him, I observe him, there’s nothing in him that will show that there’s something nasty in him.”“His family made your uncle disappear.”“He’s not involved with that.

WHAT IS THIS? Soren thought as he stared confused at Misha’s text message. Was Misha saying good-bye to him and wishing him to find another woman to love?Then, he noticed the message above it.I’m breaking up with u.His forehead creased massively. Did he send this? He was breaking up with Misha? What the fuck? No, he didn’t send this. Why would he send this? He hadn’t gone insane, but Misha seriously breaking up with him would surely send him off the rails.Oh, great, he thought as he realized what had just happened. The message was sent just less than an hour ago—it was Kayla. And she sent it while he was out getting coffee.That girl’s insufferable, she thought and immediately dialled Misha’s number—but he couldn’t reach her. Had she blocked him on her phone that quick? He went instead to his Messenger and tried to call her there—and he couldn’t reach her there also. She probably had blocked him also on her Facebook and Messenger.Jesus, a single text message was enough for her to

“WHY WOULD KAYLA want my photos?” Soren asked Cindy.“Not just any photos,” she answered. “Kayla wants sensitive ones, like a girl kissing you.”“Like when you kissed me?” he asked, his voice sombre.And she blushed immensely. “Yes,” she said. “Kayla wants some photos that will show you that you’re not nice.”“So you’re also working for Kayla?”“No,” she quickly denied, fidgeting. “It was Vera who dared me to kiss you. I didn’t know then that she was working for Kayla, I swear. She knew you’re one of my crushes… she said she’d treat me… take to a bar if I’d do it… I’m so sorry about that.” She reached for her pocket. ‘I have pictures when we were in the bar that day on my phone, me and Vera… I can show it to you…”Soren’s phone rang while she still was reaching for her phone.He reluctantly picked his phone from his pocket. But his eyes widened as he saw who was calling him—it was Misha.He immediately stood up, signalling at Cindy with his hand for her to stay at her seat—tio which s
