All Chapters of THE MASK: A Twin's Disguise: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

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

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

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

LISAI look at Lore, who is fast asleep.I turn on my side and press my hands together, laying my head on them as I watch him sleep.He's so handsome, it's such a shame I can't have him for myself,he belongs to Mona, not me.Thinking about what I said last night, I warn myself never to drink again because of how loose my tongue becomes. With all this guilt I'm carrying,I've found myself letting out small bits of truth lately.He didn't pick up on it last night, maybe he thought I was talking about a past experience instead of the trickery we are webbing him in.My drinking was triggered because I saw a picture online of Silas with a woman at a restaurant, kissing. The headline being, "HANDSOME BACHELOR OFF THE MARKET?" after a few sips, everything came crushing down. The lies, the mixed feelings, when did my life become such a mess?I didn't realise I looked away from Lore because when my eyes lift,I find his grey ones watching me. We hold eye contact for long seconds until I finally

LISAWhen the event comes to an end we say bye to our friends and my parents.I'm ushered into the car and my eyes burn with tears.He's been playing me all this time, he's been lying to me and sleeping with that woman.Lore gets in and starts to drive back home. When we get to the house, he excuses himself and goes to talk on the phone.I stand and head to the wine board,then I take out a bottle and open it,i drink the first glass in one go and then pour myself another one.Lore walks in and pauses when he spots me drinking on the sofa. After a few silent beats, he settles down next to me."Hey," she says softly and places two fingers under my chin, turning my head to him.I look at him through blurry eyes."What's wrong?"My lips tremble and I don't know what to say."You can tell me," he lets go of me.I sniffle then take another sip."Hey, slow downh" he takes the glass from my hand then places it down."How about I tell you a story, a story about two girls." He keeps staring at
