“Just relax. I'll figure something out,” she said, sounding calmer now. “I just know I can't go home tonight, and you're the last person I could think of calling.”

“Shit,” I muttered, looking through the windshield. “I'm literally outside your place right now, but it's fine. We'll meet you at home instead.”

I quickly turned to Jay. “Jay, please take us back home. Tiara's waiting there.”

Jay frowned, obviously wondering what had happened, but he didn't ask. “Cool,” he simply said before s

    RACHEL“I've texted him at least ten times today,” T complained behind me. “What if something actually happened to him? You know Noah. Every time he starts ignoring my calls, something's usually wrong.”“I already told you to stop texting him.” I cut her off as I grabbed a bottle of cold water from the fridge. Closing the door, I walked over to the counter, set my glass down, and poured myself a full cup.“I'm sure he'll call you back once he sees your messages.” I shrugged. “Maybe tomorrow morning. I don't know.” I picked up the glass and took a long drink. “For now, let's focus on your own problem.”“Or we could focus on yours.” Her eyes shifted toward Jay across the room. “Care to explain what's going on between you two?”“Oh, God... T.” I shot her a warning look. “He can hear you.”She sighed.“Does it matter?” Her gaze drifted back to Jay. “Unless there's something going on between you two, I don't see why he keeps looking at you like that.” Her expression softened. “Tell me you'

    RACHELI didn't get the chance to answer before my phone rang again. If I was being honest, it felt like a lifesaver because I had absolutely no idea what I was supposed to tell Jay.He didn't look away. Quietly, he watched me glance at my screen.Mr. David.My stomach dropped instantly.“Something wrong?” Jay asked.I looked up at him. “Um...” My eyes drifted to Tiara standing outside the gate. “Can you wait here for a minute? I need to talk to T first, then I'll come back.”He frowned slightly before giving a small shrug. “Cool.”I stepped out into the cold night, shut the car door behind me, and walked toward Tiara. She was so focused on her phone that she didn't notice me until I stopped in front of her.Her head lifted immediately. “Hey.” The single word sounded exhausted.I'd never seen Tiara like this. Usually, she yelled at whatever annoyed her. Or threatened to kick the ass of whoever offended her. But crying… Looking worried… Looking completely drained… That had never been h

Something happened. I'll explain later." My thumb rubbed absently against my index finger.A sigh came through the speaker. “I know I've got my own problems right now, but you have a lot to explain to me, Rachel Angelo.”I rolled my eyes, my fingers tightening around my seatbelt. “Fine. I'll see you there.”The call ended. I didn't even get a chance to put my phone away before Jay broke the silence.“So...” His eyes remained

  • ACHING MY STEP BROTHER    BLAMED

    RACHELI had no idea where we were when I opened my eyes. The whole drive had been exactly what I needed. Jay didn't try to start a conversation, and I had the entire ride to enjoy the quiet whoosh of the air flowing through the open window.At some point, my thoughts drifted to Dad. Strange. I had promised myself I wouldn't waste another thought on someone who had chosen to walk away from his daughter so comfortably without ever looking back. Not even a single text.The anger and exhaustion settled heavily inside my chest. “Where are we?” I asked, my voice still thick with sleep as I rubbed my forehead, sniffing through my blocked nose.Jay looked out through the windshield before turning to me. “Your mum said you weren't sleeping at home tonight,” he said quietly. “So I brought you to her place..” A small smile appeared on his face. “Though, I haven't been here in a while, so I missed a few turns but... here we are.”I sighed. “You could've woken me.” Brushing a hand over my bangs

    THANEShe didn't say anything. She only gave me a small nod. Her eyes drifted away, and before she could look elsewhere, my fingers caught her chin. “Don't you dare look away, Nin,” I snapped, but I managed to keep my voice steady. “F*cking say it to my face.”For a moment, she remained silent. Her throat worked as she swallowed, then finally, her lips parted. “I'm sorry.”I scoffed and released her chin. My hand dragged through my damp hair as I stepped back, putting enough distance between us to control the anger clawing inside me. Because I swear, if I didn't, I would've lost it.I could believe it if anyone else had done this. But Nina? She was the last person I would've expected.“Why?” I asked quietly. “You knew better than anyone how f*cked up this was, and you still did it.” I laughed bitterly. “F*ck. I can't believe I'm even saying this.”“Gosh, Thane. I already feel like sh*t. I don't need you making it worse.” She ran a frustrated hand through her hair and started pacing ar

    THANEI’m this close to Rachel. Those dreamy blue eyes locked into mine like they were digging through every damn emotion sitting there.
