A Naughty Christmas Affair: Fake Dating My Ex Brothers Chapter 100
Autumn When I wake up again, it’s morning.Luke stirs next to me, and I hear him make a grunt of what I can only assume is pain.“Are you okay?” I ask.“Fine. Fucking forgot about the wrist for a second and hit myself in the head with the splint.”I cover my mouth to hide my giggle.“I feel better though. My head is clearer. I didn’t like being all woozy yesterday.”“That’s good then. And your arm?”“Still hurts, but I can manage.”We take our time getting up, and by the time we make it out to the living room, Benedict and Elijah are already awake. Elijah is in the kitchen making breakfast, and Benedict has coffee ready in my fancy coffee machine.“Take your pills, Luke,” Elijah says, once we’ve eaten.Luke makes an irritated noise. “They’re going to make me drowsy.”“You don’t have anything to do but rest today. And if you don’t take them, you’re just going to get grouchy from the pain.”“I don’t get grouchy.”“Sure you don’t,” Elijah and Benedict say at the same time.Benedict smir

Autumn Luke is discharged from the hospital a couple of hours later, and we bundle him back up and get him in the jeep to go home. His wrist is splinted, and he’s under strict instructions to try not to move it for the next month.When we got those instructions, Benedict snorted and rolled his eyes, giving me a look that said he was already dreading trying to keep Luke from making his injury worse.For the moment at least, Luke isn’t fighting any of it. He lets us drive back to my house and get him set up on the couch. The drugs gradually start wearing off, and the clarity returns to his eyes.He’s obviously fine, getting back to his old self, but it’s still so hard to get the image of him getting hit by that car out of my head.It makes me want to be doubly sure he’s fine, and I spend the rest of day doting on him, making tea and fixing him a plate when we order dinner.Elijah and Benedict tease me about it, but I can tell they understand why I’m doing it.I can’t help but realize

Autumn “Autumn,” Benedict says firmly, turning to face me in his chair. “Luke’s going to be fine. He’s a big, strong guy, you know? You’ve seen him out there, swinging that axe around chopping wood. Being a little banged up isn’t going to stop him for long. The real problem is going to be getting him to agree to take it easy while he heals.”“You’re probably right.”“I’m definitely right. When he was eleven or so, he broke his leg riding his bike down that big hill on the edge of town. You know the one I mean?”I nod. “Behind Mrs. Foster’s house, right?”“That one. So you know how steep it is. He went flying down that hill at full speed and hit a rock or something in the road. Sent him right over the handlebars of the bike, and he landed at a really bad angle. Had to be in a cast for weeks. He was such a fucking insufferable patient. Mom and Dad kept having to threaten to have me and Elijah hold him down on the bed because he tried to walk everywhere when he was supposed to be resti
A Naughty Christmas Affair: Fake Dating My Ex Brothers Chapter 97
Autumn I stumble hard when Luke shoves me up onto the grass, almost slipping back into the road. I have just enough time to whip my head around before there’s the sickening sound of metal hitting something.The something is Luke, the car plowing right into him. He’s knocked off his feet and lands hard in the road, just a few feet away, but I see it when his head bounces off the pavement.“Luke!” I scream, the cry leaving my throat raw.“Fuck,” Benedict bursts out, and we all go running toward him.Elijah moves into the center of the road, holding up his hands to keep any cars from coming that way, and Benedict and I go to Luke’s side. I’m down on my knees in a second, hands coming up to his face. His eyes are closed, and there’s a cut bleeding profusely on his forehead.“Luke.” I pat his face gently. “Luke, please. You have to wake up.”There’s the sound of a door slamming, and the driver who hit him comes running over to us.“Oh my god,” he bursts out. “I’m so sorry. Holy shit. I w

Benedict “Hey,” I say to him.“Hi?” He tips his head to one side. “What’s up?”“I just, uh, wanted to say something. To you.”Elijah’s eyebrows lift to his hairline, but he waits for me to get my words out.Sincerity has never been a big thing in our family. We were always the ones who didn’t need words because we knew each other so well.That definitely didn’t make things easier when our relationship fell apart because we didn’t even know how to talk to each other about what the problems were, and I’m realizing now that we all just sort of assumed the others would figure out how we felt and then got angry when it didn’t work like that.But someone has to say something. Autumn has done so much of the heavy lifting for us already, and it’s up to us to keep fixing things.“Here’s the thing,” I say, just getting right to it. “You’re the older brother, right? We’ve always looked to you to know what to do because you always did know what to do. But I think maybe that wasn’t fair to you.
A Naughty Christmas Affair: Fake Dating My Ex Brothers Chapter 95
BenedictIn the morning, we wake up in a big pile together. I’ve got that warm feeling in my bones that only comes from having a very good night, and I stretch, grinning at the ceiling at the memory.Autumn stirs next to me, and she whimpers softly when she stretches.“Sore?” Elijah asks from her other side.“Oh yeah,” she replies, but she’s smiling. “In a whole new way than I’m used to.”“We didn’t go too hard, did we?” I ask her, looking over in concern. I reach up and brush hair back from her face, pleased when she nuzzles into the touch.“No, not too hard. I loved it.”“Good,” Luke says.Autumn snuggles down between us all, seeming to relax and enjoy the slow morning. Her hair is a mess, and she’s littered with evidence of how last night went. Something hot and possessive flares up inside me at the sight of it, but I tamp it down for now.My brothers have the same looks on their faces, so I know they’re on the same page as I am when it comes to the fact that we would do a repeat o
