THANE

I picked up my phone and called Tiara.

“Hey,” I breathed the second she picked.

“What’s up. Thane. I was just about to call you right now. Have you heard from Noah.”

“Erm... No.” I said quickly. “I need to ask you for something, T.”

“Look Thane, if this is about one of those ‘my guy code’ situations, then you better start coughing up the truth cause I'm not gonna forgive you this time if you're lying about Noah's whereabouts.”

I exhaled hard. Why do women always assume the worst when they

    THANE ADAMSThe last session hadn’t ended well. Thinking about it now, I had to admit I’d gone a little too far. I released a sharp breath as I stepped out of the car and headed inside.“Hello.” Brittany flashed me her signature wide smile as I walked over to the reception desk.“Hi, Brit.” I forced a small smile back.“So good to see you, Thane.” Her lips quivered into that flirting smile I already knew too well. Most times, I’d have flirted right back. Not today.“Is Nancy in?” I cut her off before she could say anything else.“Oh, yeah.” She smiled.“Right. Thanks.” I walked away without waiting another second.After knocking twice with no response, I pushed the door open and stepped inside. The fresh scent of lemon filled the air. I settled into the usual spot I took during my sessions. Water was running from the bathroom, so I assumed she was in there.Not even a minute later, her phone vibrated on the desk. I knew that sound. Her alarm. I let the first ring end, but when it star

    THANE ADAMS“Sarah Princeton Adams?” The nurse asked with a small smile.“Yeah.” I nodded.She looked down at the screen in front of her, scrolling through the details.“What’s your relationship to the patient?”“Stepmother.” The word felt strange leaving my mouth. Not because Sarah was a stranger. She wasn’t. But she wasn’t my mother either. Still, somehow, saying stepmother made the guilt sitting somewhere in my chest twist a little harder.After a moment, the nurse smiled again.“Here’s your visitor badge.”I took it from her and headed toward Sarah’s ward. She looked peaceful in her sleep when I walked in.My eyes immediately landed on the small bandage beside her left eye. And just like that, I regretted coming back. I’d hurt her. That was a fact I couldn’t run from, no matter how much I wanted to.My jaw clenched, but my feet refused to move from the doorway. I wasn’t sure what I was supposed to say to her. Sorry suddenly sounded too fucking small.That’s when she stirred. My han

    RACHELHe simply turned and walked away. I shoved at Jay's chest, trying to go after him, but he caught my arm and held me back.“Hey.”“Let go, Jae Hyun.” I glared at him.His grip tightened slightly. “Don't go.”“What? That's none of your business.”“Yeah, it's not.” His eyes stayed on mine. “But it doesn't make sense for you to run after him after what he just saw.”He was annoyingly right. And that only made me more annoyed. Because for one stupid second, I actually thought I could go after Thane. But what was I supposed to say to him? It wasn't what it looked like? Except it was.I jerked my arm free from Jay's grip. Went quiet for a second before breaking it. “Listen.” I dragged a hand through my hair, lowering my eyes. “Uhm... let's just forget about what happened. It meant nothing.”“About what?”I looked at him, then quickly looked away again. “The kiss. It just happened.”“Oh?” He nodded slowly, his expression flattening. “Let me get this straight. I kissed you, you kissed m

    RACHELI walked down the stairs to the kitchen and yanked the fridge door open. The warm yellow light flushed my eyes, followed by the cool air spilling against my face.I brought out a bottle of cold water and didn't bother shutting the fridge door. I'd already unscrewed the cap and brought it to my lips when my eyes caught the third rack, where a half-empty bottle of wine sat aimlessly.“Fuck,” I muttered under my breath.Right there, my first thought was to grab the wine and down the whole thing, consequences be damned. It would probably end with me barging into Thane's room afterward, yelling at him or, who knows, even slapping him.When I was done, I'd probably feel so guilty I'd want to slap myself for slapping him.I sighed and lowered my head, giving myself a second to reconsider the terrible decision I was about to make.The second I lifted my eyes again, my hand shot out and grabbed the bottle.I uncorked it. A hollow pop sounded through the quiet kitchen.The next thing I k

  • ACHING MY STEP BROTHER    HEADING NEXT

    RACHELMy chest wasn't supposed to ache this much, but it did.At first, I felt nothing as I watched him walk out of the room and shut the door behind him. The silence that followed was deafening. I didn't feel a damn thing, like I was submerged in ice-cold water and everything around me had gone numb.Then the ache came. A slow, pulsating pain in my chest that made me realize just how much damage he'd left behind.Suddenly, my throat hurt so badly I couldn't force down the lump sitting there.I lowered myself back onto the edge of the bed, one hand still faintly clutching my towel to my chest while the other dug into the small space between the mattress and the bed frame until my fingers curled tightly around the wood.Thane's face flashed through my mind again. I couldn't stop replaying the pain I'd seen in his eyes. The more I thought about it, the harder my nails dug into the wood.I sniffed and swallowed hard, but no tears came. Maybe this was the kind of pain people talked about

    THANE“What?” Rachel shrugged, almost helplessly. “What are you going to say?”That was where it got difficult.Looking at her this way somehow wiped every word I’d been about to say from my mind. My jaw clenched hard as I tried like hell to remind myself that I couldn’t be thinking about how much I wanted to fucking kiss her again in the middle of a damn argument, yet...She nodded eventually. “Fine. If you’ve got nothing else to say, you’re free to help yourself out.”She said it, but didn’t move either.I bit the inside of my mouth, trying to calm the anger and the intense craving sending warm trails through me as I watched her grab the shorts she’d probably picked out from her wardrobe.“I’m leaving in the morning.”My voice barely rose above a whisper.“Why are you telling me that?”She didn’t stop pulling the shorts up over her waist, as if she was already tired of having me in the room. Seeing her dress so indifferently in front of me should have been enough to drive me out.Bu

    RACHELI slammed my door the second I got into my room and collapsed face-first onto the bed, swallowing back every stupid tear threatening to slip out.She always made decisions without thinking of me first. But this? This one crossed the line, and I wasn’t letting her win.A soft knock came second

    RACHELHe slammed into me again, harder, and faster, this time, until my mind went completely blank except for him.“I love how f*cking tight you are, freckles,” he groaned, gripping my hips like if I even moved an inch, he’d lose himself.It was insane. One moment I was furious at Raymond for maki
