Vera Stanhope Books の小説・ストーリー

“I’m sorry to disturb you, Veronica, but Sasha said that you might like a cup of coffee.” Forcing a welcoming smile to her lips, Veronica took the tray from Sasha’s housekeeper. She had been working in the library all morning, painstakingly going through the accounts and costings for the work she had already commissioned for Elsinore Hall.

But now, even though she hadn’t eaten any breakfast and she knew that she ought to be hungry, the only hunger she had was the neverending, consuming hunger for Sasha’s love. And, as he had made more than plain to her, that was something she could never have.

"I am Veronica Vane. I am your one and only true Queen and Herald. No impostor can bring me down to the ground." I flew in front of Elspeth and whispered to her ear, "Even you, Elspeth… don’t have the capability to overpower me."

She did not like being on this side of things. "Yes," Lila finally said. "I will be back," Veronica said. She needed to get far from the coven as quickly as possible. Veronica snapped her fingers and was back in her study. Veronica silently walked over to her cupboard that held her liquor.

He always had a way of hiding all his crimes including the dead body of the pregnant girl he killed when I was little. I drank the water that the maid provided. Beside me, Valerie still comforted me. Vera came suddenly because she wanted to grab some snacks. She cleared her throat and couldn't stand the attention her sister gave me. "Aren't you afraid she will steal Hugo from you?" Valerie turned to Vera quickly. “Watch your mouth, Vera! Estelle became a Stealer not because of her will!” Vera walked arrogantly while shrugging her shoulders. "Yeah, let's see if you still say that."

Garrisson had sent Vera to reprint a ream of documents that you'd soaked, and sent you to help her. "Jesus Christ, kid," Vera said as you entered the copy room. "Talk about going above and beyond." "Hey, no pain, no gain, right?" you asked. She smirked and chuckled, starting another file printing. Vera was a pretty woman somewhere in her thirties, with tan skin and dark hair that made you assume she was latina to some percentage, though she could just as easily have been a darker skinned Italian woman. With both copiers running, she stood back and leaned against the counter almost right where you and Sabrina had been intimate not two days earlier.

Alice The bar’s atmosphere was a blend of quiet jazz and whispered ambition. Shadows clung to the velvet booths, hiding secrets in their folds. Alice Florence adjusted her dress, lifting her martini glass as she studied the woman opposite her. Veronica Duval was not merely beautiful. She was a weapon, polished and deadly, wrapped in couture. Recently returned from Geneva, Veronica brought a storm of curiosity and influence. A shareholder in the Anderson-Hidalgo venture, her opinion could sway investors like the tide.

Her raven-black hair clung to her cheeks, her leather jacket glistening, and that moonstone necklace glowed faintly. “Gabriel, what is this place?” Vera asked, her voice sharp, eyes scanning the shelves. She crossed her arms, suspicion rolling off her like heat. “Nightmoor’s archive,” I said, stepping forward. “Old records, moonstone lore. Stuff you need to know.” Her eyes flicked to mine, emerald and piercing, and my wolf stirred, the bond tugging hard.

Vera nodded and asked him, “Young Master, I want to share your burden as well. I just don't know if you're willing to let me help you.” Charlie said, “Miss Lavor, since you have nothing else to do, let's search together. Please inform me immediately if you find anything suspicious.” “No problem!” Vera happily agreed and then took a book from the shelf, flipping through the pages carefully in search of anything that might be hidden between the pages or any notes left in the books. However, after going through many books in succession, they found nothing particularly remarkable. Just when Charlie was unsure what to do next, Vera suddenly pulled out a black file from the bookshelf. After flippi

It was one of her favorite novels; VERITY BY COLLEN HOOVER. Not long before Christiana's life took a drastic turn, she borrowed the book from one of her workmates and had only read five chapters of the book before she was kidnapped. But she couldn't deny that only the first chapter of the book got her so hooked that she couldn't put it down. And now, the silly women ended up forgetting she was supposed to only take a peek and leave. She became so engrossed in the novel she was reading that she didn't hear the bathroom door creaking open.
