Dear best friend's brother, kiss me while you can

Dear best friend's brother, kiss me while you can

After one soul-crushing breakup, Summer Peterson—quirky, invisible, heartbroken—swore she’d never fall again. But secrets don’t care about promises. Especially not the kind hiding in her best friend’s older brother. Hayden is everything she shouldn’t want. Dangerous. Magnetic. Off-limits. But one forbidden kiss was all it took to unravel her. Now every stolen moment pulls her deeper—into a twisted affair of obsession, lies, and betrayal. Hayden doesn’t just touch. He marks. He owns. And he’s hiding a secret that could destroy them both. Someone is watching. Someone who wants her. And someone who will do anything to tear them apart. Loving him might ruin her. Leaving him might kill her. How do you run from the boy who’d burn the world to keep you? And how far will she go for a love that was never meant to save her? ⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING – MATURE CONTENT AHEAD This story doesn’t hold back. It dives deep into explicit sexual content, intense emotional trauma, abuse, violence, and psychological manipulation. This content is strictly for 18+ audiences.

♤♤JAKE'S POV♤♤My voice came out a low growl, as I anticipated seeing her free from the anguish of having to wear clothes all day long.I’d never get tired of seeing her naked. She hesitated. I sensed insubordination. And then her shaky hands hooked into the band of her joggers. She slid them down carefully and painfully slow.I watched the line of her spine curve, the fine tremor running through her. My pulse raced beneath my skin. I bit down the desire coiling in the pit of my stomach, settling in my groin. A low rumble emanated from my chest the moment her hoodie came off, revealing her bare, tender breasts.I reached for one of them without thinking, cupping the beauty in the palm of my hands. Summer didn't move. She stood still as a statue. A bulge surged in my pants, aching with intense need.She looked so small and so fragile that the thought of filling her with my creamy essence almost brought me down to my knees. I had to stop. I had to let her get dressed. I had all the time

♤♤JAKE'S POV♤♤Her cries would not leave me. They clung to the walls. They pulsed through the air. They scraped through the inside of my skull long after her voice had gone hoarse. The day Summer learned about Hayden’s death, she broke apart.She rejected the food I brought her. Pushed away water. Curled into herself and cried until her throat collapsed. Until she was emptied out. And while she drowned in grief… I felt light. Euphoric, even.Hayden’s death was the universe finally correcting a mistake. His death was a blessing—one life removed so mine with Summer could finally start. Things were finally starting to look up.The past few weeks with Summer had shown me a beautiful truth I’d always known: love wins when you strip it down to the bone. It always prevailed no matter what. Summer had stopped fighting. She was quiet now. And very soft. She ate what I gave her. She didn’t flinch when I touched her wrist to check the swelling. Sometimes she did—perhaps from fear, but soon, it’

☆☆SUMMER'S POV☆☆Yes. I remember now. It's been four weeks since we got here. Jake still hadn't told me where we were. I’d been locked in this basement for so long, I didn't know what it felt like to see the outside world, or feel the warmth of the sun on my skin.He’d been texting my dad on my phone, impersonating me. And whenever my dad asked to speak on a phone call, Jake would hold a knife to my throat just in case I said anything that indicated that I was in danger.He promised his family would hurt mine if I didn't cooperate. And I believed him. I knew what they were capable of. So, my dad basically believed I left France and went back to New York, got caught up in school, and refused to come home for Christmas. I spent Christmas with Jake exploring my body like a perfectly wrapped present from Santa. He’d drugged me. Whenever I woke up, I was tied to the bed. Naked. His fingers hovered over my breasts, lightly tracing every inch of my skin as if he’d burn if he really touched

☆☆SUMMER'S POV☆☆🌹🌹🌹FOUR WEEKS LATER🌹🌹🌹“It is with great sorrow that we gather here today for the burial of a young, promising man, a friend, a son, who was just a boy...”The priest’s voice droned on, hollow and echoing from the massive screen bolted to the wall.“He put up a good fight until his last breath. The death of Hayden Dylan has left a gaping hole in our hearts, one that can not be filled. But we know he’s in a better place. He was a flower planted in God’s great garden. And now he has returned home, to a better place.”I couldn't peel my gaze from the screen. Tears never came. Not when I needed them. Hayden is not dead, I told myself. No. I refused to believe he’s gone. My wrist burned from the cuffs. I’d been held hostage for so long, I’d lost track of time.After I was stabbed with a needle, everything went dark. Complete Darkness. Sharp, stale, suffocating. It pressed against my face, my lungs, my thoughts.I didn't know how long I’d slept. It felt more like I ha

♡♡HAYDEN'S POV♡♡Jake stood in the safe zone, watching, like he enjoyed seeing our sister under there, dying. Rage and grief mixed thoroughly inside me, pushing me forward. I wanted to put an end to his wicked ways.He deserved to die, not Nancy. He knew she couldn't swim. How could she even try to survive inside that chilling water? I wanted to push Jake into the lake and watch him drown. I was going to do it.Suddenly a much stronger grip held me. The guard. Tara stood beside her mother, their expression unreadable. I hadn't heard them coming. I screamed so loud, but the woods swallowed my cries.“Jake?” Tara called. He answered. She hugged him the second he neared her. “Go back to the mansion. Stay in your room. Mummy will be there soon. Okay?”Jake nodded. Then he ran away. The guard dragged me across the forest floor like I was nothing but dead weight. The Countess and Tara followed. Every pull sent a flare of pain licking up my leg, but I gritted my teeth and swallowed the sound

♡♡HAYDEN'S POV♡♡ 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Dad was busy talking with a group of businessmen. He still managed to entertain my questions, smiling occasionally. He never knew that, further down the years, he’d turn out to be a little too cold and hard on us. He never knew he’d bury his head in his work even more than he did now. Back then, he was Dad. The man who took us to parks, aquariums, malls. The man who let us sit on his office desk and scribble on his important papers because he said, “What’s work without a little chaos?” He was always there whenever we needed him.Nancy was his favourite. He never said it, but even a blind man could see it. Whatever she said was like a sacred commandment he needed to obey. She was his girl.But that didn't mean he loved Jake and me any less. We were so happy together. I was delighted until Nancy found out the truth and told me. Some days, I wish she never had.Look what fucking happened to her. She‘s buried under cold California soil.

Broken trust: Luna's awakening

“Maybe I'll come back later. I'm sorry,” I said, tension strangling my voice. “No, please. Stay!” He said in a calm tone. I looked at him hysterically, and, like he had just recognised his own nudity, he smiled confidently. “I'll just put on something if you're uncomfortable.” “Uncomfortable?” I scoffed, trying to sound assuring. “No, I'm not uncomfortable. I've seen a lot of naked boys.” He shot a glance at me, sending a thrill running down my chest. “Boys?” He asked, closing the distance between us. He grabbed my left hand and placed it on his hard breast, his heart beating steady, a stark contrast to mine, which raced like an antelope running from a predator in a jungle. “Well… I've seen a lot of naked boys, but not a naked man…” I whispered softly, gazing and feeling lost in his starry eyes. ******************* Reina Grayson, the wolf-less Alpha's daughter, harbours a dangerous secret: she possesses a silver wolf. If her Pack discovers, she’ll be killed. When Alpha Van Killian, whom she was forced to marry, rejects her for her step-sister, Reina is poisoned and dies. Gifted a second chance by the Moon Goddess, she is reborn as Narah Smith. On her eighteenth birthday, she uncovers her true identity, but she had lost her wolf.

As she navigates her past, she forms a bond with Alpha Van, who believes she’s his second chance mate despite being married to her step-sister.

Can she seek revenge on those who wronged her, or will she remain forever in the shadows?

Chapter: CHAPTER 141: Happily ever after?
NARAH'S POV Arthur and Dahlia. Oh dear! Arthur and Dahlia visited and asked for forgiveness, but I had already forgiven them. Besides, I became friends with their son, Luca. He was a really nice kid. Hanadin and Rachael started dating with her father's permission. Beta Henry had a change of heart toward Hanadin. Although, he said Hanadin was weird. Bryan asked Liora out, and she responded with a big fat “No.” Good heavens, she had been avoiding him recently. He wouldn't stop accompanying her wherever she went, and he promised he would wait for her until she changed her mind. “Or until he meets his fated mate,” Liora told me when recounting the story of how he tailed her to the store when she went to get groceries with Cindy. Bryan and Jeremiah got closer and became inseparable. Beta Solomon's wife still didn't like Bryan, but Jeremiah didn’t care and told her it wasn't Bryan's fault that her husband slept with another woman and brought forth a son—Bryan. How sweet. Br

Chapter: CHAPTER 140: Home is where the heart is
NARAH’S POV It was finally over. The Moon Jade was gone. The weight that had burdened so many for centuries had finally been lifted. I could feel the peace settling into my bones, like the calm after a storm. The power that had once ruled over so many was now nothing but dust and memory. The curse was broken, and it was over. When I focused all of my powers into extracting it from Beta Bernard, my mind was disturbed by memories of how the Jade had been passed down through generations. Many years after Jenna and Ophelia's death, the farmers working on the land to build a bridge dug up Jenna's remains from her grave, and that was how they discovered the Moon Jade. It was later passed on from one Alpha to another, a King to another, a governor, a Duke, a duchess, and they all had one name for it: “the cursed gemstone” due to the number of people who had died because of it. Many had tried to destroy the Moon Jade, but it wouldn't budge. So, it was sold to a princess who gav

Chapter: CHAPTER 139: The cost of battle
NARAH'S POV I couldn’t afford to break down in front of Alpha Van, not now. I forced my lips into a smile, but even I could see how hollow it was. I wasn’t okay—nothing about this was okay—but I couldn’t let him carry that burden alone. “I'm good. Are you okay?” “My love... I’m sorry,” he whispered, his voice full of raw emotion. “I can't let you fight all by yourself.” “You don't have to worry, ” I assured him, the vacant emptiness in my eyes returning, revealing the presence of my hybrid wolf. “We’ll fix this. Together.” Minisi had done her part—to protect the foetus, but now, if she didn't lend me her full strength, there would be no home for my unborn child, or the people of Vaelothor to live in. My bones groaned in protest as they stretched, snapping and dislocating with a sickening crunch. A searing pain tore through my muscles, each shift a fresh agony, my skin stretching and tearing as though it couldn’t contain the transformation. The heat from within radiated o

Chapter: CHAPTER 138: The battle between light and dark
NARAH'S POV Van’s muscles bulged with effort as he absorbed the impact, his body seizing under the power with a coldness such as I had never seen. I could feel his pain through the bond we shared.With a guttural scream, his body surged forward, breaking through the dark energy like a battering ram. He wasn’t fully healed, but he was strong—strong enough to fight for us.Beta Bernard's eyes widened in surprise. He had expected the lethal force to end Alpha Van's life in the frightful encounter.“Thank goodness,” I muttered under my breath, taking a stand by Curtis's (Alpha Van) side.He had taken a blow meant for me. I was more than grateful that he had, but I just prayed that he was truly okay and that nothing awful would happen to him.He didn’t let Beta Bernard’s attack stop him. He was back, fighting for what was right, and I fought by his side.“Change of plan,” Beta Bernard said, blocking my kicks. “I'm going to kill both of you right here.”“I'd like to see you try,” I raved.

Chapter: CHAPTER 137: The truth there is
NARAH'S POV Standing face to face with Van's direwolf, my heart leaped for joy. As my hands slowly trailed over its soft, stunning black fur, it growled tenderly, leaning its head on my arm.Suddenly, with the speed of light, Beta Bernard grabbed me from the side, lifting me into the air, his laughter cutting through the atmosphere like a blade.“Let me go,” I shouted, the wisps of my breath curling in the air as I wriggled in his arms. I could see Alpha Van's wolf running after us, its gaze drifting toward the sky now and then. I didn't even get a moment more to rejoice at his breaking free.Although I had initially wanted to get to Beta Bernard, now that I was soaring about twenty thousand feet above the ground and knowing he had the power to throw me off at any moment, I had a change of heart.“I'll show you what real power looks like,” he said, focusing above as he rose higher.My heart was pounding rapidly, my stomach churning with every gust of air I breathed in. “Murdering p

Chapter: CHAPTER 136: Power
NARAH'S POV I wiped my tears, smiling and nodding, but it was only for a split second before the creature pounced on me, pinning me to the ground. It seemed to be fighting with the voices in its head, staggering back, growling, and throwing punches at its own head.My heart hammered in my chest as my shuddering legs managed to find the strength to support me. Frantically, I dashed through the clearing once more. However, Beta Bernard was no longer in sight. The creature—Van— was hot on my heels again, a twisted shadow of the man I loved. Each desperate step felt like it could be my last, but there was no time to stop.No! I couldn't stop. Not now, not when Beta Bernard was still out there, controlling everything and planning to destroy people's lives.I glanced over my shoulder just in time to see Alpha Van stumble again, his paws pounding the earth, his body fighting against the unnatural force that gripped him.It was as if a part of him, deep inside, was beginning to take charge,
