Chapter 3Ellie’s povThe evening went on but it was still the same long day after the wedding.I could not settle down in my room so I came back downstairs in my soft robe tied loosely around my body.Marcus was sitting in the living room flipping through channels on the television looking restless himself.“You are still up too huh? Could not sleep after everything that happened today?” I asked as I sat down on the couch not too far from him.The robe slipped a little on my thigh but I left it like that on purpose to see his reaction. My heart was beating with that mix of nervousness and excitement again.“Yeah the wedding and all the changes have me thinking too much Ellie. Your mom called earlier to say she landed safe but the trip might take longer than planned,” he replied in his deep voice turning to look at me.His eyes noticed the robe and how it had opened a

Chapter 2Ellie’s pov“Mom, why do you have to rush off right after the wedding ceremony this morning? It all happened so fast and now everything feels shifted with Marcus here as part of the family,” I said, standing in the doorway of the master bedroom watching her throw clothes into her suitcase with quick hands.The small wedding had taken place just hours earlier that same day with close family, flowers filling the air, and a simple cake on the dining table that we had barely touched.Marcus, my new stepfather at forty eight years old, leaned against the wall looking every bit handsome and in control with his shirt sleeves rolled up showing off his strong forearms.I had deliberately chosen to wear this shorter sundress today because it hugged my curves and showed my legs, wanting to see if he would notice me now that we were all living together under one roof as this new blended family.My hear

Chapter 1Ellie’s POVI’ve always been the kind of girl who craves stability but somehow ends up surrounded by chaos.At twenty-two, I was still living at home with Mom, juggling community college classes, part-time shifts at the local café, and the quiet ache of watching my friends move on with their lives while mine felt stuck in limbo.Mom has always been a whirlwind,beautiful, ambitious, and constantly chasing the next big opportunity.She worked long hours in corporate sales, traveling more often than she was home.Our house was nice, a two-story place with a pool in the backyard that I mostly had to myself.I’d grown up here after Dad left when I was twelve, learning early how to be independent.I cooked my own meals, kept the place tidy, and filled the empty evenings with books, movies, and late-night swims.I loved my body and had grown comfortable in it. Lon

Chapter 8Selena’s pov“Ryan, wait just listen to us for a minute before you blow up the whole family,” I said, stepping forward with my voice steady even though my legs still felt weak from the night with Ethan.The room stayed thick with tension and the heavy smell of our sex. Ryan stood there fuming but he didn’t walk out right away.Ethan stayed close beside me, his hand brushing mine in silent support.My heart pounded hard knowing this moment could change everything but part of me felt relieved it was finally out.“Explain then,” Ryan snapped, crossing his arms. “Ten seconds is up. How long have you two been sneaking around behind my back?The party, the lake, the parking garage all those times I texted wondering where you went Selena. Was it exciting fucking my brother while I worried about you?”Ethan spoke up first, his tone calm but firm. &l

Chapter 7Selena’s pov“Ethan that was too much even for us I can still feel you dripping out of me,” I said softly, my body limp and satisfied as we stayed tangled together naked and breathless in my bed.The sheets were twisted around our legs, sticky with sweat from everything we’d done that night.”His hand rested on my breast thumb brushing my nipple lazily while my fingers traced the tattoos on his chest.We both knew Ryan was coming but at that moment we couldn’t pull away.“I know but I couldn’t stop filling you up,” he murmured, kissing my neck. “Your pussy feels too good especially when you scream my name like that.Even now with everything falling apart I want to flip you over and fuck you again.”His cock twitched against my thigh already half hard.I reached down stroking him slowly, feeling him grow in my g

Chapter 6Selena’s pov“Ethan we said we would try to stop after what happened with those photos but I can’t do it,” I whispered into the phone, my hands shaking as I paced my apartment in the middle of the night.The same long day still stretched on bleeding from evening into dark hours.He showed up at my door fifteen minutes later looking just as wrecked as I felt.The second he stepped inside we crashed together desperate and knowing this could ruin everything.“I tried to stay away Selena but hearing your voice made me hard instantly,” he said, kicking the door shut and shoving me against the wall.His mouth claimed mine rough and needy while his hands yanked my shirt over my head.I pulled at his belt, freeing his thick cock and stroking it fast.He groaned loudly, pushing my pants down and lifting one of my legs around his waist.

Chapter 15Derek’s POVThe campus café buzzed with afternoon chatter as I sat across from Alex the next day.Sunlight streamed through the windows, highlighting his easy smile and messy blond hair.Our project materials were spread across the table, but my mind was elsewhere,still replaying the rough, desperate sex with Marcus in my room while Mom was out.“You seem distracted again,” Alex said, pushing a coffee toward me. “Everything alright at home? The engagement stuff hitting hard?”I stared into my cup, the weight of secrets pressing on my chest like a physical force. Part of me desperately wanted to tell someone.Alex had become a real friend, supportive, non-judgmental. For a moment, the words hovered on my tongue.“I slept with him. Twice. My mom’s fiancé fucked me while she was home.”My hands trembled around the cup. I almost said i

Chapter 14Derek’s POVThe apartment was quiet when we returned from the engagement gathering.Mom had been invited for a late drink with her clinic friends to celebrate and had texted that she’d be home after midnight.The message left me alone with Marcus in the charged silence of our living room.I tried to escape to my bedroom, but he caught my arm in the hallway, grip firm.“We need to talk,” he said, voice low.“Talk?” I laughed bitterly, pulling away. “You had your hand on me under the table the entire dinner while Mom was right there.”Marcus stepped closer, backing me against the wall. His eyes were dark, hungry. “You were hard the whole time. Don’t pretend you didn’t like the risk.”Heat flooded my face. Before I could deny it, his mouth crashed down on mine.This kiss was different from the first time, rougher, mor

Chapter 13Derek’s POVThe small engagement gathering was held at Mom’s favorite Italian restaurant downtown,intimate, with dim lighting and soft jazz playing in the background.Only close friends and a few colleagues had been invited.I sat squeezed between Lena and Mark at a long table, the scent of garlic bread and marinara sauce thick in the air.Marcus and Mom sat at the head, glowing with happiness as they announced their official engagement.“Finally making it legal!” Mom laughed, holding up her glass. The table erupted in cheers and congratulations.Marcus smiled modestly, his arm draped casually around her shoulders. He looked perfect,charming, stable, the ideal partner.I forced a smile and raised my water glass, stomach in knots.Lena leaned in close, her sharp eyes glinting with mischief. “You look like you haven’t slept in days, Derek.Still

Chapter 12Derek’s POVThe apartment smelled of roasted chicken and herbs when I stepped inside that evening.Mom’s laughter drifted from the kitchen, light and carefree in a way that used to be rare.I hung my bag on the hook, steeling myself.The soreness from last night lingered with every step, a secret brand on my body that no one else could see.“Perfect timing!” Mom called. “Marcus made dinner again. Come help set the table.”I walked in and froze for half a second.Marcus stood at the counter, sleeves rolled up, carving the chicken with precise movements.He glanced up, dark eyes meeting mine with calm composure.The same man who had fucked me senseless less than twenty-four hours ago now looked every bit the devoted fiancé.“Hey,” I muttered, grabbing plates from the cabinet.Dinner unfolded with painf

Derek’s POVSunlight filtered through my bedroom blinds, painting warm stripes across the tangled sheets.I woke slowly, body aching in places I had never felt before.A heavy arm draped across my waist, warm breath brushing the back of my neck. Marcus. His presence was solid, real, and terrifying.Memories from last night flooded back in vivid color, his weight pinning me, the stretch and burn, the way I had moaned his name while my mother slept just down the hall.Heat rushed to my face. Shame twisted sharp in my gut, but my body remembered the pleasure too.My cock twitched at the mere thought, traitorous and eager.I shifted carefully, trying to slip out from under his arm without waking him.Marcus stirred anyway, pulling me back against his chest with a low, sleepy rumble. “Morning,” he murmured, voice rough with sleep.His hand slid down my bare stomach, danger

Chapter 10Derek’s POVThe apartment settled into silence after Mom closed her bedroom door.The only sounds were the faint hum of the refrigerator and the thunder of my own heartbeat.I stood frozen in my room, back against the door, trying to get my body to calm down. It didn’t work. Every nerve felt raw, electrified by Marcus’s parting words.A soft knock broke the quiet.“Derek.” His voice was low, controlled, but edged with something darker.I opened the door before I could stop myself. Marcus filled the frame, his broad shoulders tense, dark eyes locked on mine.The hallway light cast shadows across his face, highlighting the sharp line of his jaw and the silver in his hair.He stepped inside without asking, closing the door behind him with a quiet click that sounded final.“We said boundaries,” I whispered, even as my body betrayed me.
