Chapter 12" Or can I have your Manager's number instead, Incase I can't place a call across to you.. then at least I can get to know if everything is okay through him " She said hurriedly, covering up for the question she thought might have made Bryan uncomfortable as he hadn't given a reply for some minutes." Alright, I will do that " Bryan finally replied." Babe.. why can't I get your address? " Lyra asked silently and incoherently." Are you busy now? " Lyra asked and it took a while before Bryan replied." Um.. not really " He replied but Lyra knew he didn't want to make her feel bad." It's fine. I know you're busy, I'm also busy too " She lied." You're busy too? Is he making you do some hard labour? " Bryan asked, hoping it's not what he's thinking." Come on.. I'm just busy getting myself ready for an outing tomorrow " She said." Ok then.. I will call you later by 5 once I'm done " Bryan replied, tho he's aware she only said that so he wouldn't feel bad he's leaving her a

Chapter 14" Y..your birthday? " Alex asked surprisingly and Lyra nodded. He turned to Bruce with a raised brow.Lyra let out a dry chuckle. " You don't have to ask him, he probably doesn't know " Lyra cut Alex of who passed Bruce a questioning look." He doesn't care.. " She muttered and with that, got on her feet. She made her way to her room.Alex turned to Bruce who seemed guilty for a while but he's currently looking expressionless like he didn't care.The truth is, he was suprised for a while as he didn't even know it was going to be Lyra's birthday tomorrow. Not like he had cared anyways, he knows literally nothing about his so-calledThat means it's also Ella's birthday tomorrow but she didn't remind him.Wait, is she probably expecting him to pull a suprise birthday for her?But how can he do that within the space of some hours?" You're not going to say anything about this, are you? " Alex asked but Bruce gave no reply as he only turned his attention to the laptop on his la

Chapter 16Lyra ignored the shocks on their face as she made her way to her room.Ella turned to Bruce angrily and with a scoff. " What the hell!? Did you just watch her say all that to me? And you're here saying nothing!? " She asked angrily." You heard her, there's no man " Bryce replied simply, Ella scoffed unbelievably." I really can't believe you! You're supporting her? And not me!? I mean, you believed her lies!? It's definitely a guy and not someone special like she claimed! She's a liar! " Ella yelled.Bruce let out a disturbing sigh as he stood and grabbing Ella by her wrist, he began to pull her away up to the stairs while she tries to break free in annoyance.Successfully pulling her into his room, he closed the door behind and releasing her, Ella scoffed angrily." Really!? I can't believe you right now! How could you.. " Ella swallowed the rest of her words when Bruce began to unbutton his shirt.She swallowed hard into nothing as he was finally shirtless before her."

Chapter 18* Later In The Evening *" Oh God " Lyra let out a tired sigh as she landed on the bed." I'm tired " She said to Tia who also nodded as she sat on the bed gently." Seems Sire Bruce and his friend aren't around " Tia said and Lyra nodded." I guess, I didn't see them around earlier " She replied." You perhaps know where they are? " Lyra asked but she shook her head." No, but I could ask Henri " She muttered and Lyra raised a brow." He's going to tell you? " She asked like she was suprised. Tia nodded and a smirk played on Lyra's lips." Wow, at least we could always ask him some few things about Bruce's movement " She said and Tia nodded." I will text him now " She said but Lyra shook her head. " No, call him. I wanna see how you two communicate " Lyra said with a silly smile and Tia blushed a little." No, I'm not doing that. I'm just going to text him instead " She said as she worked on her phone but suddenly, Lyra snatched her phone.She dialed the number immediatel

Chapter 20" What's it Lyra? What's wrong? " Bryan asked slowly." I wanted him to be you. I wanted.. " " Why? Why Lyra? Why should I be him? " Bryan asked confusedly." Cause I want to see you so badly, even if it's once. I want to see your face, I want to touch you so bad, wrap my arms around your body. I badly want to see you " She cried.Bryan sighed slowly as he wondered what he could say to calm her down." Bryan... say something " Lyra muttered." Lyra.. I... "" You can't reveal yourself?
