The morning sun was still shy, peeking through the trees as Kelvin climbed the front steps of the house. His knock was light but steady, his other hand tucked into the pocket of his coat.

He could already hear movement inside—footsteps, a sharp voice, then the familiar scuffle of Max’s excitement.

The door creaked open and Anya stood there, hair pulled into a lazy ponytail, coffee in hand, and suspicion still lingering in her eyes from yesterday.

“You’re early,” she said, stepping aside to let him in.

Kelvin gave a faint grin. “I figured I’d beat the traffic. And I like to see what kind of mood the troublemaker’s waking up in.”

“Hyper,” she muttered, closing the door behind him. “As always.”

As if on cue, Max barreled into the room, already wearing his backpack though his sneakers were untied. “Mr. Max!” he shouted, running over. “We’re doing science today, right? With the slime?”

Kelvin laughed and crouched to meet his level. “That’s the plan. But only if you promise not to throw it

  • A Night With My Husband's Stepbrother    Chapter 100

    Ariel thrashed between the two men, her heels scraping the cracked tile outside the motel as they dragged her toward the black car waiting by the curb. Her voice was hoarse now, raw from screaming, pleading and cursing.No one at the motel stopped to help, no one even looked twice at her.It was that kind of place that no one really cares about anyone.The back door was already open. They shoved her inside, her body hitting the leather seat with a thud. She lunged for the other side, but before she could even touch the handle, one of the men slid in beside her, blocking her path. The other slammed the door shut from outside and moved to the front seat ready to drive.Alexander got in last, moving calm and still composed despite all that was happening.The driver ignited the engine and then the car rolled forward.Ariel sat stiffly between Alexander and one of his men. Her hands were clenched in her lap, her chest heaving as she glared at him, her brow furrowed. “You’re kidnapping m

    The tires screeched slightly as Alexander pulled out into traffic, weaving through the late-afternoon rush like a man possessed. He kept his jaw tight, and his eyes locked forward with the kind of focus that made his hands grip the wheel tighter than necessary.The streets of Vegas blurred past him— the glittering signs, some tourists, neon haze—and none of them caught his eyes. All he could care about right now, was that motel room. Room 17. Silver Pine Inn.He knew the type of place. It had no cameras, and that meant no safety.Damn her. He curses inside. She’d put herself in the worst position possible, thinking she could outrun what they were all tangled in. And yet… part of him understood. The world she ran from had nearly destroyed her. He, Johnny, had nearly destroyed her. He handled everything so bad, else she won't be running away. He slammed his palm once against the steering wheel as if trying to release the fury trapped in his chest.The car’s navigation spoke up—“In

    He sat back down slowly, but his body never relaxed since the news. His mind ran at full tilt, every detail of the last seventy-two hours flashing behind his eyes like war footage.Ariel is missing, but still wouldn't just vanish like that, not now at least.Not without a reason, and Alexander knew exactly the reason. Max, she heard he's missing.He gritted his teeth.“If you’re running out of the country,” he muttered to himself, “you don’t wait around.”But Ariel hadn’t made it far. If she was planning to get to Spain, she would’ve needed her passport. She ran away from Johnny's penthouse in a rush, that… that means the passport was with him. Maybe it was locked away by Johnny. He's smart enough to predict she might do something exactly like this, down the line.So unless she has another passport—and she doesn’t—she’s grounded.She's still here in Vegas .That realization snapped everything into place.She couldn’t leave the country, not through any legal means. Which meant she wa

    The day rolled on like any other would have, at least on the surface.Luis manned his usual post in the front corridor of the East Wing nodding at suits as they came in and out, his eyes scanning the screens behind the reception desk.He kept his face stern and unreadable, but inside, his nerves were coiled and his mind ticking off every passing hour like a timing-bomb.He needed time.Having checked the routines already, he knew Miguel wouldn’t be on shift in the surveillance control room until after lunch, so that meant after lunch was his window. Luis knew better than to act early, patience was the key that had kept him alive all these years, and today wouldn’t be any different.So, till then, he had to play his part, and play it well. Soon, the lunch bell hit, and staff flooded the cafeteria at once. Luis didn’t eat, he couldn't really, not with what was on the line. Instead, he wandered past the breakroom, pretending to scroll on his phone.Through the window, he spotted Migue

    Kelvin adjusted the collar of his jacket as he stepped out of the elevator and moved with a swift and steady composure.The weight of what he was about to say clung to his shoulders like lead. This wouldn’t be a casual meeting with Elena, it could go either very good or very bad, depending on what says. He stepped out of the hotel doors and waved down a taxi without much effort. “Crimson Bar.”He said leaning towards the window of the cab. The driver nodded once and Kelvin stepped in. They drove through streets he was growing too familiar with over his stay here in Spain. He took a moment to admire some wonderful buildings and monuments, maybe to cool off his jumbled mind for a while. They cab came to stop outside Crimson Bar just as the sun dipped behind the buildings. A part of him hoped Elena might not show—but she did.She always did.She was already inside, seated in the same booth as before, her fingers dancing nervously around the rim of her glass. When she saw him, she sat

    Kevin's cab came to a stop just outside Anya’s apartment. He passed the driver some cash and slipped out of the car. He didn’t want to come.Every instinct told him to disappear quietly, to board the next flight back to Vegas and deal with everything from the safety of distance. But the guilt clung like smoke, and some part of him at least owed her this. The knock on her apartment door was tentative, almost reluctant.When it swung open and Anya stood there, her hair was unkept and a mess to be fair, she had dark circles under her eyes, Kelvin immediately knew this wouldn’t go well.“Hello Anya.” Kelvin started, his voice shaky. Her brows pinched. “What do you want?”“I just—can I come in for a second?”“Why?” Her voice cracked. “You have five seconds to tell me what you want before I slam this door in your face.”He swallowed. “I’m leaving the country.”The door didn’t slam, but her expression shattered.“You’re what?” she asked, her tone laced with disbelief. “I need to go to Ve
