All Chapters of Shadow Heiress: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

‘How to know if you like someone'I stared down at the search results of the article on my phone with weariness, there was no way I was this down-bad, and besides I knew it wasn't always good to believe what you read on the Internet but right now it was my only source of confirmation. It would be so awkward to ask someone although I considered asking Laurene but nah…'Your heart rate may increase when you are around them’‘You might feel butterflies in your stomach or nervousness’‘Your body language may change such as fidgeting or blushing’So that's what those feelings were? I placed my hands on my cheeks remembering all the times it felt whenever Vito was around me. He did make me feel nervous at times and I did blush a lot.‘You find yourself thinking about them frequently, even when you are busy’'You also may start to notice the little things they do and you can't help but think it's endearing’Well, I don't know if his whining while struggling to jump rope was something I found

Arriving at my new job in the hospital, well temporarily, I was all dressed up in my uniform that I didn't know how Laurene got. Sitting in the tiny room I let out a sigh, It was hot here even with all the hospital's air conditioning, and my nose burned from all the chemicals I had inhaled. Vegas’s appointment was later on in the day but I had to resume so early.Getting out of the house was a struggle this morning because of Vito, It's been three days only but I feel he's been trying to hold back on being too clingy but this morning was an absolute failure.^^Flashback^^"Vito, you have to wake up…the guys can't see you coming out of my room this early,” I said as I tried to shake him awake but he didn't seem to budge as he snored gently.Sighing, I turned to walk away and continued"You can't keep coming to sleep in here, how would the guys react to this besides I have to go to work now," I whined awayBut was caught off guard as he grabbed me by the hand and pulled me down onto the

“Hey miss…What are you doing here” the voice asked but I stood still because the voice seemed so familiar.Turning to face the person who spoke, I already knew it was him.That weird doctor.I glared at him as he walked towards me and stopped right in front of me, eyeing me from head to toe before backing away."I knew you looked new and different. Who are you?" He asked. There was no way I could put my mission at risk by talking to this guy so I concluded on ignoring him.Keeping my phone back in my pocket, I stepped to the side so I could walk away but Antoine didn't seem like he was going to let me leave"C’mon, don’t do that…'' he started and grabbed my hand. On instinct, I used my other hand to elbow his stomach before pushing him away from me.“If you touch me again, I’ll kill you” I stated angrily, glaring at him so he got the message clear and direct. I wasn't sure what his purpose was or what he was getting at but I had to be on my guard right now."Chill, I’m not going to hu

^^DION’S POV^^In the situation I was currently in, never have I ever wished for my sister to be here more than I do right now.I know I treated her terribly at some point and said some mean stuff but c’mon, siblings tend to fight all the time and they settle. It’s not like I’ve ever wished her bad, things were just the way they were because of the household we found ourselves in.“You sickos…let go of me!" I yelled as I struggled against the men carrying me away.I was taking a stroll when suddenly I was cornered into some lonely street by a black van and some guys rushed out surrounding me. I was about to be taken captive again.This was the second time this had happened to me since Juno my sister absconded to be with the Costellos’. I mean this misfortune wouldn't be going on right now if she hadn't left in the first place.Right from when we were little, the both of us never really got along, we were more or less like two sides of a coin. We were attached of course as twins but we

Navigating through my day at work was tiring, of course, I got there late which I hated and I couldn’t focus much because of how my day started. The one time I decided to walk to work, well that's the last time I'm ever doing that. Seeing Dion, really just ruined my whole day.It was still so unbelievable because what are the chances that that had happened just as I was passing by? I did contemplate helping him though but seeing how pathetic Dion looked made me feel some type of way and ruled out any negative thoughts I had about him in that moment.He was still my blood regardless.Letting out a sigh, I knew I didn't want to think about it all anymore but our argument kept bothering me. The way Dion seemed ignorant about how our lives had turned out, or was he just pretending? Or was he playing some type of card game trying to convince himself that he didn’t have a hand in all this? One way or the other he had a large role to play and although I didn’t blame him entirely, maybe I jus
