Chapter 42 - "Don't Covet What Doesn't Belong to You"
It's not just Jasper anymore. The guy I was trying to find turns out to be the same guy who wants to become my friend. But the good part here is I can watch his every move, and I'll threaten him right away if he ever tries to reveal Lia's secret.
That's it, that's what I'm going to do. As long as Ezra doesn't figure out who I really am, then it'll be fine. I can still protect this secret.
"Sorry for my brother's mistake." Ebony made Ezra bow his head again as she smiled at me. "We'll go now."
I nodded after Ebony said that, and she pulled Ezra, who's still out of it, away from where I was. When they disappeared from my sight, as if something was pulled out of my chest, I could breathe freely again.

The photoshoot went well with all the models getting along with me. It's actually fun being in the center of all of them. I truly enjoyed this today, not like the usual that all I could feel was the tiredness. That's at least while I was with everyone. But as soon as we finished, Jasper excused the two of us. Without giving them any context or proper reason for why we need to be excused simultaneously and even together. Though hesitant, Kim gave me an 'okay' sign, which relieved me that I wouldn't have to suffer from any issues because of Jasper's compulsiveness. There's no place for us to talk, but Jasper brought me to the rooftop. This is the only place he could think of? What is this? Some kind of high school drama? "What do you want to
Trapped in Lace Chapter 44 - To Keep Lia's Secret Safe
Monday came, and everything was back to normal, except for the fact that I now keep my eyes on Ezra. At lunchtime, I was watching him from afar while he ate with Dwight and the others. Even Mitch was baffled by my actions, but I can’t hesitate right now. There’s a big chance that Ezra might slip up and say what he saw to Dwight. Thinking about Dwight, he might like celebrities and models, and he might even like Lia too. When that time comes, I should be there to stop Ezra before things get worst. “Why do you keep watching Ezra? Did he do something wrong to you? Wait, isn’t this the first time we’re going to eat in the cafeteria? What’s going on? Hello, enlighten me, please.” I couldn’t answer Mitch’s questions, but I know how curious he’ll becom

Ezra's POVThese days, Alexis's being weird. He would always stare at me and even glare at me. As if Alexis's watching my every move and would even follow me wherever I go. I act that I don't notice him, but he's too cute for me to not notice.Even if he tried to hide from the back of a wall or something, I could still feel his presence. I like it when he's paying attention to me like that, but my heart won't be able to handle it if he keeps staring at me with those cute and round eyes during training.We even started going home together after training. It gives too much bliss to my heart that I'm thankful for whatever reason Alexis has to be with me all the time."Y
Trapped in Lace Chapter 46 - What's Wrong With Me?
Alexis's POVMitch and I were on our way towards the cafeteria until Mitch suddenly stopped walking. I bumped into his back because I was following him from behind. "Isn't that Ezra?" I looked in the window where Mitch pointed his finger.There we saw Ezra in the backyard with a girl. I squinted my eyes and realized that it was the same girl I had seen with him before when they arrived back from their class trip. That time when I tried to call Ezra's name, but that girl appeared out of nowhere.We saw how Ezra laughed and patted the girl's head as if it was normal for him to act like that in front of her. "I thought Ezra's afraid of women? How come he looks comfortable touching and looking at that girl? As if he's in love with h

Hearing Ezra says that makes me feel like I was rejected, and it didn't feel good. Not at all. Coach Alfred decided to end the practice with that since the others were also having trouble focusing. I thought I would receive some hate comments from Devon and his friends again, but they ignored me and just went with what the coach said. That's strange. It's not like Devon and his friends to be like that. Shouldn't Devon be blaming me for my incompetence? I can't even deny that because I was easily distracted by things that don't even matter that much. "Should I come with you until your house?" Mitch asked that as we were on our way towards the gate. We finished changing clothes as so
Trapped in Lace Chapter 48 - Don't Misunderstand
Alexis's POV "Ion! Look at the lake. It's so pretty!" I couldn't stop smiling as I watched Lia run towards the nearby lake not far from our cabin. Mom and dad took the whole family on a trip to the cabin they initially brought for our family whenever we wanted to have a vacation or just have peace of mind. It's great to be away from the city like this. There are no bullies here. "Be careful. You might fall." I reminded Lia as she kept running, but she just giggled at me. "It doesn't matter even if I do fall. Didn't you know that I'm the best swimmer in our family?" Lia giggled. "Of course, you'll know it. You're my other half. There's nothing
Trapped in Lace Chapter 49 - Game On
After that incident, I overlooked the time flying, and the first week of August had already passed. My plan about watching Ezra all the time failed because he's with Irish every single day. I didn't want to disturb their time together, so I couldn't watch over his actions. Even though he said their relationship is fake and he's doing it to help Irish, I couldn't stop sighing. We're also already preparing for the preliminary stage of the competitions. We'll be joining the August boys' high school volleyball competition. Though I still do some modeling works whenever I have free time. Speaking of that, Jasper's been hanging around with me after that incident with him. He learned about my secret, remember? It's like he wanted to get closer to
Trapped in Lace Chapter 50 - Winning Streak
I once again took a deep breath. Even though I kept telling myself that I didn't feel nervous, I could still feel my heart beating faster than usual. Is it because of the excitement? I don't know. All I could hear was the cheers of the people all over the arena. And the sounds of the buzzer that they're testing before the game starts. We'll be playing with many players here, and I know they're all here to win. As I was roaming my vision, I felt someone's arm on my shoulder, which caused me to flinch. "Don't feel nervous. We're all here with you, so just trust us and toss the ball like how you usually do." Ezra said with his usual bright and cheery smile. Does he not feel nervous at all? It must be because he's used to playing in this kind of place and with this kind of atmosphere. There's no way it'll make him feel nervous when he's born to be on this stage. I apprecia
