FAÇADE
/fəˈsɑːd/
a deceptive outward appearance.
Her flawless public facade masked private despair.
"When heaven is far,we make an abode of hell."
"Too bold and unbothered to be doing shit...yes i did it"that was the type of girl everyone thought Skye to be,a bad ass with a good ass. Everyone idolized her but if only they knew her picture perfect life was a bedazzled mirage and she was not all she was thought to be and her perfectly idolized family was close to crumbles.
Would this perfectly played charade continue or would she learn to umask herself for the world especially when she meets Kabir.

She said looking at me hatred in her eyes. "I don't have to try to make him love me. He already does with all his heart." With a smile on my face I look at my phone which pinged with a notification. "I don't have time to waste with you, my husband is waiting for me." She laughed out loud making me look at her in confusion, is she loosing her senses or what? She looked at me with pity. "I feel sorry for you that you believe he loves you. If he loves you as you say why was he at my place every night for the past three days." To say i was shocked would be an understatement.

Under the moon light
[Book #1 of Wicked clan series] I knew my facade would be stripped naked with no heads up the moment his eyes landed on me What could possibly happen? if I met my dad's best friend's son at a party? not much? hell what a freaking joke a lot happened, a lot. All my life I built those walls, keeping the human community away, far away from my authentic self, because being pitied upon isn't exactly what I was made for. except him, he didn't pity, but only offered a dangerous threat of stripping my facade. and while I could've passed a laugh on such a cinematic line. His words didn't mean cinematic, not even a bit. He was my only fear, my only truth and I knew I was his, and he was not stopping unless he achieved his goal. and I was not stopping until I give up, which would certainly not happen .Because lies and mystery surrounded me, my mother's death turned me into something I loathed, acting fake. but whatever I choose to do, I did it with perfectionism, not letting a dent conjure upon it.![Eyes Like Hellfire [Completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/7670758-256-k901135.jpg)
Eyes Like Hellfire [Completed]
"Sitting in the corner in front of me was Zoe. But then again, it wasn't. It had her body, but it was warped into something vile. Her eyes were glazed over in the same blood red, hellfire taking over her pupils. Her hair was darker than before, if that was possible, her skin lighter, her veins visible. But the worst was her smile. It wasn't the smile I knew. The way her lips curled up, her teeth slightly shown, wasn't Zoe. The crooked smirk, the hollowness of her laugh, that wasn't Zoe. That was something else entirely." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ They say that eyes are the windows to the soul. So what does it mean when I look into her eyes and see the fires of hell? I'm Mickey. A small town girl with a small town's view of the world. But after going into that house, things get a little freaky in Mr. Roger's Neighborhood. Reoccurring dreams keep me awake, and memories haunt me during the day. But then, I meet Zoe. Combat boots, metal music, and red highlights, with a fiery attitude to match. With a fear of next to nothing and curiosity the size of North America, she's the reason I find myself in that house again. But this time, we don't come out of there so lucky. As ghosts become reality, and demons become things that aren't only found in horror movies, we find out that we must help what's good and send what's evil back to where it truly belongs. And when those demons become problems, both figuratively and realistically, we soon find out that this is a test that we need each other to pass. Highest Ranking: - #89 in Ghost Story - #613 in Paranormal (not incredibly high or anything, but I'm proud)Complete
