Chapter 10 

LANA 

Isabella has been staring at me with her mouth wide open for the past hour. Her seen me dressed up like this, but did she have to make it so awkward

vior makes me nervous. Maybe this was the first time she’d 

She knows how shy I got when people stared at me so openly. Maybe she was intentionally trying to mess with my emotions. My sister loved 

me for her entertainment

Will you stop now?I ask her, I can feel my cheeks barn under her gaze 

I cam,she says as she stares at the nicely designed black minidress on my body. All this time, you could have been a perfect model for my designs, and yet you chose to hide this figure from the entire world! No one would ever guess you had such a banging body beneath all those big sweaters and jackets you love to wear so much

I got what my sister was trying to say, but I was happy to hide my body from the world. I’m only doing this to get back at a certain someone. I shouldn’t even have to do something like this

I’m pissed that I’m lening my stepbrother’s actions change that little fact about me. I shouldn’t let him have so much control over my actions, but it was too late for that. I was already in this dress and could not hack down without upsetting my sister. The last thing I wanted to do was dull her 

nood after making her so happy

I wasn’t even sure why she was so excited to attend this party. I knew why I was attending, but her behavior made no sense. What was so special about a party that we weren’t invited to 

Can you stop being so dramatic?I demand from her. You are making me nervous for no reason. I do not want to be the center of attention tonight. You know this. Idon’t understand why you want us to be the center of attention” 

How would strangers react if she acted this way because of an outfit! Would they even care? I was more concerned about Apollo’s reaction than anything else. I was hoping to get something out of him. However, judging by the number of women around him, would one outfit really get a response from him? It would probably mean nothing, and I would most likely leave the party disappointed

⠀⠀ NoShe snaps. I will not. You have been hiding for far too long. Do you even know boy many men will want your number tonight? You will be 

more popular than the popular girls from the academy! You have always stayed in the barkground; it is time you start to shine and show everyone what you are made of 

As I’ve mentioned to my sister multiple times tonight, I did not want to be the center of attention. Besides, I knew that she was exaggerating. The popular girls at the academy were extremely beautiful, and Apollo probably would have slept with all of them by now

I inwardly sigh at that thought. I did not want to think about the hundreds of women he’d slept with; it made me feel sick to my stomach. I knew it was something that I could never change. He’s already been with them all

It was weird to me that many of those women were friends, and each of them took turns with my stepbrother. How could they all be okay with that? I could never be okay with my boyfriend sleeping around with my friends, but at the same time, I knew he was never in a relationship with any of them. I’m sure that each of the girls hoped that they would be the ones to change him but was disappointed when he just moved on to his next Largel 

“I am happy going unnoticed.” I remind her. I like my space 

It was the truth. I had managed to hide for all these years, and suddenly, because of one person’s actions, I was changing my ways, I was insane for Even agreeing in go to this party with intentions like this

She sighis, I know. I know she agrees as she straightens the strand of hair to the front of my face. But trust me, you will love all the attention you gri tonight. If you ever felt like you were not beautiful, that will change the second everyone sees you” 

no one the would think that way

was saying this because she was my sister. I am sure that no one che 

Well, it is time, she tells me. We are both fully dressed.” 

I couldn’t believe we were really crashing Apollo’s party. This was something I wouldn’t even dream of doing in the past. I often wondered took place at one of his parties, and today, I was about to fand out 

But did I truly want to find this out

My sister grabs my hand and pulls me uut of the room before I can ponder on that thought

It is all clear,she tells me as I look around for signs of Apollo

He left about an hour ago,she tells me. I made sure to check. Since this is his party, he had to be there early” 

Hbreathe a sigh of relief. I was nervous to see Apollo’s reaction to me wearing something I would never step into

Chapter 10 

I did not want to be interested in his reaction to anything concerning me, but I could not help myself. This feeling inside me was difficult to ignore, especially after that night in his room

My mind wanders back to that memory. He never returned until the next day, and his skin looked tanned, as though he’d slept on the sand at the beach. I didn’t know where he’d gone, and I had a feeling that he’d slept with some other woman that night. Maybe he did, in fact, take her to the beach, where they spent the night together

I frown at that thought I didn’t want to think about Apollo sticking his tongue down some random woman’s throat after just finding out that we 

were Mates 

You need to lighten up,my sister tells me. Every time 1 look at you, seems as though you have something going on in your head.” 

I sigh. You are looking too much into my expressions. I told you that I’m okay. You do not need to worry about me.” 

She doesn’t look convinced, but we don’t have time to stress on that conversation when we spot our mother

She gapes at me when she sees me heading out the door. Maybe my younger sister was right, how would strangers react if this was my mother’s reaction

What is this!She gasps. How did your sister convince you to wear a dress?” 

I roll my eyes. Why is everyone in this house so dramatic about everything?” 

We are not dramatic Tabella says as she touches up on my makeup for the hundredth time. We are just not used to this opportunity

This opportunity

Can we just go now! Task her

My mother laughs. Where are you two heading to dressed up like this!” 

Ahnowhere special.” I answer her

I wasn’t sure if she would be happy to know that we were crashing Apollo’s party. She knew her stepson’s wild adventures and would probably not want us to attend something like that

Okay,she says with suspicious eyes. Just be safe, and remember not to stay our too latel 

Yes, mom!I shows back as I close the door and rush towards the parked car at the gate

1 grab the keys out of my purse

“I can drive. Fabella tell me 

No, thank youI tell her as I enter the driver’s seat. I was not risking my life tonight after already agreeing to attend this stupid party to get back at my mate

oil the fun

She groans, Why do you always need to spoil 

I roll my eyes at her as I shut the car door. How about we call this entire thing off and go back inside?” 

She folds her arms stubbornly, Oh no, sister. You are not getting out of this so easily. We are going to that party! You already promised met” 

There was no chance of me changing her mind. I had to find a way to make it through the night without getting my heart hurt by Apollo’s actions
