Disgrace Novels & Stories

"Mom, what did that ungrateful bastard say to you? She used a kindness as leverage, slandered Lily, and even declared in front of the cameras that she wanted to sever ties with us. It's a good thing that Lily taught her a lesson! That way, she'll stop causing trouble all the time!" Grandma's right hand, which was holding the phone, began to tremble. She frowned, unable to understand what on earth was happening. "Is this what you mean by Lily teaching Laura a lesson? Laura's right arm is fractured, and there's a hole in her head! If I hadn't rushed back after seeing the news about the fire, she might have died on the pavement!"

My loyalty, her disappointment and relief could be easily seen in her brown eyes but I chose not to let it bother me much. I knew that the bloody ‘L’ word was quite unlucky for me and it was going to bite me in the ass if I let it consume me. Last time I said that, I ended up being an orphan. My father didn’t give two shits whether we loved him or not, he was too consumed by his greed for money and my mother was nothing without him.

The laughter faded behind me as I walked, stomach in knots. Grace had cried? Madame Delance was angry? But none of it was about remorse. None of it was about me, or the baby, or how any of this had destroyed something sacred inside of me. It was about image, control and silence. Madame Delance’s empire couldn’t afford scandal, and I was just a crack in the marble she was desperate to polish over. I didn’t know what the next few days would hold, if Tristan would face backlash for confronting Grace, if Madame Delance would retaliate behind closed doors.

ATI way of doing things were more extreme, way more extreme and sadly just the kind of extreme that would make me get hurt. The new rumors were fueled by the teachers refusal to give out my name and instead of the students thinking that I am some one important, they starting thinking that I was maybe a disgrace to the realm. Disgraces were halflings or changlings or those whose parents literally shamed their race and were unable to get away with it. When you manage to get away with it, you are regarded by another name, praises are sung about you and everybody forgets the wrong deed that you did. As in the case of my mother.

The impact left a stinging sensation on Lisa's skin, her cheek flushed with pain and humiliation. In that moment, Lisa's world shattered. The weight of betrayal and humiliation bore down upon her, crushing her spirit and leaving her standing in the spotlight of public disgrace. Her eyes, glistening with unshed tears, searched for solace, for a glimmer of compassion, but all she found was a cold indifference in Adrien's gaze.

She had given up all hope in the word "family." “You asked me why I have always been partial to her and biased against you? Let me tell you! You're a disgrace to me! Only Aurora is my pride. Even though you have Dante and the Medina Family supporting you now, my detestation against you won't change a bit!" Disgrace... This word was branded in her mind, and it was hurting her like a sharp knife stabbing in her heart and leaving a bloody hole.

It was a deadline tied to destruction. Marcel understood what Nathan meant. Disgrace didn’t simply mean embarrassment. It meant dismantling a man’s life piece by piece until there was nothing left to stand on. And if that didn’t work… There were other options. More permanent ones. Marcel exhaled slowly as he continued walking. This was the part of the job he had hoped to avoid. But it was here now. And there was no stepping away from it. Not anymore. Back inside the office, Nathan remained standing for a moment, his fists clenched tightly at his sides.

Absolutely delusional. Grace’s voice turned icy. “Mr. Luther, I call you ‘Mr. Luther’ out of courtesy, but before you picked up the phone, did you bother to check your daughter’s reputation? She’s arrogant, volatile, manipulative—everyone knows it. She’s caused scandal after scandal, even leaked confidential documents. And not just your family’s. She exposed classified research. Classified, Mr. Luther. And you think she’s some priceless treasure? “You expect my family to welcome a walking disaster like that into our home? Sooner or later, she’d bring the Duncans down with her. We would NEVER accept a daughter-in-law like her. Not in this lifetime.”
