"I don't believe this.""The guy's 28, he had to get married sooner or later.""B-but he's in the mafia!""Just because we're in doesn't make us no less human." Nadia stated harshly, yet she didn't look at me."I hadn't meant it like that, Nadia."Ignoring me, she looked towards Nik and scowled, "Meet me in the room, now!"With that, she walked away and Nikolai followed.I stood there in utter shock, everything suddenly felt like a dream. Walking back to the room, trying to channel my multiple emotions into one was the hardest thing to do. I slumped down on the sofa and replayed everything that happened between Sinister and me.I was unsure of what I was feeling. I wanted to murder him. He led me on. He kissed me! He kissed me even though he had a fiancée. Sinister played me and used me as if I was some sort of object. That's all he knew to do! He always toyed with my emotions! He manipulated me the first time we met and now… now I felt as if I was suffocating from some sort of…. Toxi
Shadows of Deception Family conflicts…
“Oh, I see.” I replied, “I still don’t know, Maria. I don’t belong with these people.”“I specifically asked about you, he said he wishes no one to starve in this house. You’re a guest, and you’ll be treated like one. I think it’s best if you go, I might even be in trouble if you don’t attend.” “Then I’ll go for your sake.” I sighed.She smiled thankfully, “You’re a very sweet woman, Miss Grey, I truly hope God blesses and gives you what you deserve. Everyone’s been seated downstairs, you should probably go as well.”I nodded and she walked away. At first, I was a bit hesitant to go there, but I sucked it up. I mean, it was just a normal dinner, what could go wrong?I stood at the door of the dining room where I saw Sinister’s grandfather seated at the head of the table speaking to Alberto at the side. Mikhail was taking his seat while giving instructions to a worker while Nadia sat at the other head. Nikolai walked in from the other entrance, taking a seat on the other side of Nadia
Shadows of Deception “I killed her!”
Her shock was evident, and Maria’s eyes widened to the size of Texas.“Oh, dear,” I frowned and looked at my dirty hand, “Looks like I missed a spot.”With that, I wiped my hands on her clothing.I stood my ground as she clenched her teeth towards me. I swore she would have said something, but surprisingly, she didn’t. She walked away, muttering something angrily.Something about that told me that she wasn’t going to let it slide, but for now, I’ll celebrate my victory. I helped Maria clean up, as the poor girl was struggling to do so by herself since the other worker had left. When I was finished, I decided to take some dishes up to the stockroom on the top floor for her.On my way up there, in that hallway that I had to admit was dead creepy, I heard sudden shouts. It came from a room from afar. The last door at the end, which was slightly opened, it seemed like two persons were arguing inside there. Cautiously, I walked up to the door and peeked in, only to note the two shocking ind
Shadows of Deception Murder nightmare.
“That’s why she tried to kill me,” Nadia suddenly interjected, “I found out, and she tried to get rid of me.”I looked at Nadia as she said that yet something felt off. She was lying. The way she said it, it wasn’t as she would. I just knew somehow that it wasn’t true. I felt it. Then again, why would she lie?“Vladimir must have influenced her.”“And to be fair,” Nikolai interjected, “We all know that Rosalie wasn’t a smart girl.”Silence engulfed the room for a few moments.“Sir?” Maria’s sweet voice suddenly brought me to my attention.“Maria, take Miss Grey back to the room.” Sinister stated firmly.“Yes sir,” she smiled and took me by my slightly trembling arms out of the room.This wasn’t happening. I didn’t like feeling like this.“Miss, please have something to drink.” Maria offered as I sat on the edge of the bed in silence.“I’m fine.” Lies.“Miss Grey, please don’t do this to yourself.”I didn’t answer. I couldn’t. How could I stop this agony? How do I ease this guilt? Wil
Shadows of Deception A gun to my head.
My fear chewed me viciously, I had to get out. Without a second thought, I pushed myself off the bed and walked out of the room and out of the hall into Sinister’s room. He was asleep, shirtless on the bed, with an arm behind his head. The covers tousled gracefully low on his waist as he shifted slightly.Dear God.Was he naked?Taking a deep soft breath, I swallowed. I wasn’t going to scare myself to death back in that room. I didn’t want to be alone. Likewise, I hated the solitude. With a nervous flush, I walked around the bed and slipped myself in. I tried not to wake him up. He looked so peaceful while he was asleep, so harmless and less intimidating.I must be going mad, but I swore I saw a hint of a smile tug at the edge of his lips. No, I must be thinking too much. I was insane.Trying my best to shut my eyes, I snuggled into the sheets to keep myself warm. This man must have been a vampire or something because he slept with the AC at the lowest degree.“You’re here.” His soft
Shadows of Deception “I wish to leave…”
Okay, this was enough.I was too damn sick and tired of all this drama.“Is this the way you thank someone who saved your life, Nadia?” I asked angrily, “Is this your form of gratitude?”“Shut up and don’t try to lecture me. I asked you something, answer me.”I didn’t.“I swear to God, if Sin didn’t need you right now, I would have killed you already.”“Then do it, Nadia,” I scowled, “Just forget about Sinister and shoot me.”She clenched her teeth as anger washed across her features, “I’m just warning you, don’t cross your line with me. Whatever you heard, forget it, you don’t want to get on my bad side.”“You have a good side?” I scoffed.“Grey,” She growled, lowering the gun.“And that’s the problem with you people!” I hissed at her, “You treat people like shit and expect them to treat you with respect! It doesn’t work like that, Nadia. Admit it, admit how you hate not being able to live a normal life! You pretend to be perfect but you’re not! I can see it, I can see right through
Shadows of Deception Free from that side of life…
In a swift fluid moment, I swung the door open to face my wonderful bastard.“Sinister!” I breathed achingly and threw my arms around him.“Becky,” he sounded a bit shocked as he pushed me in and shut the door, keeping an arm around me.I buried my face into his chest tightly.“Why the hell weren’t you answering the phone?” He asked in a soft but harsh tone.Pulling away slightly, I replied with a confused expression, “The phone?”“I’ve been trying to call your room phone. You weren’t answering.I was silent because, to God, I didn’t hear any phone sound.“You didn’t hear it?” He arched an eyebrow, “Becky? What were you doing all this time? Were you asleep?”“I wasn’t.”Sinister walked over to the sofa and sat, pinching the brink of his nose almost in frustration. I didn’t like this, I didn’t like the way he looked right now.“Are you mad at me?” My voice broke in that soft question.He snapped his face in my direction and frowned, “What do you think?”“Uhm, I don’t know.” I sighed ti
Shadows of Deception Not the man she expected…
Rebecca came a few minutes late and to God, my time with her was the best I’ve had for months. She demanded to know where I had been, and I told her I was with Daniel, my brother. I wasn’t comfortable sharing the details of Sinister and his people with her. I would rather not get her involved.I didn’t know why I was feeling that way. All that happened so far, it was catching up to me. The worst part about it was that I couldn’t tell anyone about it. I couldn’t be confronted by anyone about it without putting their lives at risk. I don’t want that. Rebecca deserves her happiness without having to worry about me. We talked a lot about plenty of things, her new job, her new boyfriend, and everything in between. “So, you met him a few days after I was gone?” I asked, again, to be sure of every detail.“Hm, hm, and he has been the sweetest oh my God!” She beamed with joy as she grabbed my arm. “Beck, don’t you think it’s time you find someone? I mean, I’m not trying to push you or anyth
