LOGINIsabella's POV
I didn't answer Lila right away. My brain was still rebooting from the orgasm that hit me hard. My panties were soaked, and Lila was sitting there licking her fingers like she'd just finished dessert. And now Camilla was texting her. Asking if I was hurt. I stared at Lila’s phone screen like it might bite me. “What does she want?” I finally managed to say. Lila tilted her head, playful smile never fading. “She wants to know if you’re ready to stop running.” I laughed, almost hysterical. “Ready? I don’t even know what “ready” means anymore.” Lila leaned in again, kissed the corner of my mouth, soft this time, almost sweet. “It means you stop pretending you don’t want this.” She pulled back just enough to look at me properly. “Camilla always gets what she wants. And right now, she wants you in the game. Not watching from doorways. In it.” She winked at me. My heart kicked hard against my ribs. “I'm not… I don’t even know if I can…” “Girl, you already did. You literally came over my hand five minutes ago. That's a pretty good start.” That was embarrassing. I looked away. She caught my chin gently, turned me to face her. “Hey. No shame here. Not with me. Not tonight.” Her thumb brushed my lower lip. I barely made it back to my room before the shaking started. Not the kind that came with aftershocks and soft kisses. This was the trembling of someone who just crossed a line they couldn’t uncross, and now the line was chasing them. I locked the door, and leaned against it. Lila’s taste was still on my lips. I slid down to the floor, held my knees against my chest, hoodie bunched around me like armor that didn’t fit anymore. What the hell was I doing? I ran my hand through my messy hair. I went to Lila’s room, let her kiss me, and I let her touch me. I even came so hard I saw stars, and then I sat there panting while she texted my stepmother like we were planning a book club. And the worst part? I wanted more. My phone buzzed on the carpet beside me. I ignored it. It buzzed again, I looked at the screen. Camilla. I picked it up. *Headache still bothering you, darling? Come to my room. I'll take a look.* I stared at the message until the screen dimmed. Then it buzzed once more. I hissed. *I insist* I breathed in, counting one to seven, then I exhaled slowly. I stood up, and walked down the hallway like I wasn’t walking straight into a trap I’d already half-set myself. Camilla’s door was ajar. The scent of jasmine filled my nose even before I stepped inside. She was sitting on the edge of her bed in a deep green satin robe, hair loose, reading something on her tablet. She looked up when I entered and smiled, looking concerned, like a nurse about to take your temperature. Even though I knew it was all a show. “Close the door,” she said gently. I did. Like someone under spell. The click of the lock sounded too loud. She kept the tablet aside and patted the bed beside her. “Come here. Let me see.” I walked to where she was like my legs belonged to someone else and sat. She turned to face me, knees brushing mine. “You're flushed l,” she said, reaching out to press the back of her hand to my forehead. Her skin was cool, her touch stayed for a while. “I'm fine,” I lied. “You're not fine.” Her hand slid down to cup my cheek. Thumb brushed my lower lip just the same path Lila had taken an hour earlier. I sucked in a breath. Camilla’s eyes darkened. “You've been busy tonight.” I froze. My eyes almost popping from the socket. She smiled, small, knowing. “I can smell her on you. Vanilla. And something sweeter.” My face burned. What's really going on with these two? She leaned closer and whispered in my ear. “Did she make you come?” I couldn't speak. “Answer me, darling.” She pressed. “Yes,” I whispered. Atleast she had no idea I saw her with Dad, cause she seems to know damn well every fucking thing going on in this house. Her smile widened. “Good girl.” She stood up and walked to her dresser. Opened a drawer. When she turned back she was holding a small leather case. She placed it on the bed between us and opened it. Inside it was a stethoscope, a blood pressure cuff, a small silver thermometer. Kudos to having a nurse as a stepmom. But my eyes caught something tucked in the corner, a slim black vibrator and a bottle of lube. My mouth went dry. “Lie back,” she said. “On the pillows.” I obeyed, like a sheep to the slaughter. She climbed onto the bed, straddled my thighs, the robe falling open just enough to show she wasn’t wearing anything underneath. Urm… was this the new way nurses examine their patients now? She picked up the stethoscope, placed the cold metal against my chest, right over my racing heart. “Breath deep honey,” she murmured. I inhaled. She listened, tilting her head, listened again. “Your heart’s racing,” she said. “Very fast. Very… excited.” She set the stethoscope aside. Her hands slid under my hoodie in a twinkle of an eye. Pushing it up until my boobs were bare. She cupped them, thumbs brushing my nipples. They betrayed me by hardening instantly. “Sensitive,” she noted, almost clinically. “Already so responsive.” She leaned down and took one into her mouth, sucking gently while her tongue flicked over the peak. “Ah…” I gasped. Her fingers slid under my shorts, finding me still wet from Lila. She moaned against my skin. “Still wet. Perfect,” “Anyone ever told you you have a banging body?” I whimpered in reply as her thumb pressed my clit in slow circles, inserting two fingers inside me. “You're going to come for me,” she said softly. “Righy here.” On my fingers. While I listen to your heart try to beat out of your chest. She sped up, her fingers pumping in, thumb circling harder. I was already close… too cross. She leaned down and kissed me, deeply, like she was claiming me. Swallowing my moans as I came hard around her fingers, thighs shaking in ways I never knew was possible, my back bowing off the bed. She kept moving gently now, until the sensations washed off. Then she pulled her fingers out and licked them clean while holding my gaze. “Better now?” She asked. I chuckled, “A little.” “We're not finished,” she smiled, then reached for the vibrator. “Lie back,” she said. I did. Done lot of crazy stuff but it was gonna be my first time having a vibrator on me. She turned in on, the low hum filling the room. She pressed it against my clit. Oh heavens! I jerked. She smirked. “Somebody's Sensitive.” “My first time.” “Then you're gonna love it.” She worked it slowly in circles, light taps while her other hand slid up to cover my mouth. “Quiet, darling,” she whispered. “We wouldn’t want your father to hear how good I’m making you feel.” The mention of Dad sent a fresh wave of shame and heat through me. Camilla’s eyes darkened. “You like that,” she murmured. “The risk, ‘we shouldn't be doing this but we are’ kinda wrong.” I moaned against her palm, she turned the vibe up. I came again, harder this time, faster till tears began leaking from the corners of my eyes. She eased off, kissed my temple. “Beautiful,” she whispered. Then she looked toward the door. “Should we invite Lila up?” she asked softly. “Or do you want to keep this just between us… for now? I stared at her, heart racing, I had just been pleasured by my step… No. Camilla. I didn’t even have an answer for her. But my body did. It was already aching for more. Screw me. Camilla scoffed at my expression. “Welcome to the family game, darling.” My phone buzzed on the floor, totally forgotten. I didn’t look. Because downstairs, the house was quiet. But up here, like hell. The game had just started. And I wasn't sure I wanted it to stop.Isabella’s POV I stepped out of Claire’s apartment for some moments under the guise of picking up a delivery. The apartment felt smaller after she told me everything. The air was heavy with her tears and my silence. We sat on couch for another half hour, her head on my shoulders, my arm around her, until she finally straightened up and wiped her face. “I can't do this alone,” she said again. “I asked him to come here tonight. Eight o’ clock.”I nodded. “I'll be there.”She hugged me one more time, like the only thing she had left in this world. Then I left.The drive home was blurry. I kept replaying her words in my head. *When he's inside me… it's the only time I feel alive*I knew that feeling. I felt it with Lila. With Camilla and with the twins.I didn't tell anyone where I was going that night. I just waited until seven-thirty, then I wire a simple black dress. Nothing flashy, nothing that screamed “I'm about to walk into a disaster” and drove back to Claire’s apartment. Sh
Isabella’s POVI thought I could keep like separate boxes in my head: One for Lila’s bed and her wicked smile. One for Camilla’s satin robe and her clinical, filthy “examinations.”One for Noah’s desperate hallway kiss. One for Ethan’s quiet confession and the way he looked at me while he poured his seed inside me.But the shitty boxes were leaking. And the leak smelled like guilt and jasmine and the metallic tang of secrets that were starting to rust.Claire called me at 10 a.m on a Tuesday. I was reluctant to pick, I wasn't cut for any kind of stress that day.I picked eventually, what's family for. Her voice cracked on the first word.“Bella? Can you come over? I need… I need to talk.”I didn't ask any questions. I just grabbed my car keys.Claire’s apartment was twenty minutes away. It was high-rise, glass walls, and gave you a view of the city that made you feel like we're floating above ear else’s mess.She opened the door in yoga pants and an oversized hoodie, her eyes were
Isabella’s POV I needed to get out of the house, maybe good shopping or gaming. Anything to clear my head. Every corner reminded me of something— Lila's bed, Camilla's satin robe, Ethan’s mouth between my legs, Noah’s desperate kiss in the hallway. I couldn't breathe inside anymore. I texted Nate, our driver, at 3 p.m. His reply came in under a minute. I grabbed a light jacket, frayed, and sneaked out using the side entrance before anyone could ask questions. Nate was already waiting in the black SUV, windows tinted, engine purring low. He stepped out when he saw me, opened the back door like always. “Where to, Miss Isabella?” Slid into the seat. “Just drive. Out of the city to somewhere quiet.” He nodded, no questions asked. That's why I liked Nate. He never pried. We pulled out of the gate and headed west, passing manicured estates and golf courses, towards the winding roads that led to the hills. The city fell way behind us. I leaned my head against the glass. Watched
Isabella’s POVI avoided everyone like my life depended on it. After I snucked into my room, at 5.am., in the morning, I left Ethan still asleep and snoring lightly.I locked my door, curtains drawn, and my phone on Do Not Disturb. I told Maria I had a migraine when she knocked with a tray of tea and toast. She left it outside without pushing to know what was wrong. One of the things I liked about her.But Sasha wasn't buying it.My phone lit up around noon with her flashing like an accusation.*What's up with you. You ghosting me now? What the hell is going on in that house?*I stared at the message until the screen went dark. Then It buzzed again.*Isabella. Answer me. Else, I'm coming over.*I kicked my foot in the air, groaned, and typed back quickly before I could grit it.*Fine. Back gate. 2 p.m.*I didn't want her inside the main house. Not today. Not with Noah’s taste still lingering in my memory and Ethan’s quiet stare burning burning holes in my brain. She showed up at 2:0
Isabella's POV The twins had been home less than twenty-four hours, the house felt smaller. Lately, my room has been my safe haven. My supposed bestie said she was gonna come around her ignored her text, I was just so lost.Dinner felt like work to me. All those tensions and unwanted attention were just suffocating.Dad was causally talking about business, Camilla pouring wine with the perfect hostess smile, Noah cracking jokes I didn't find funny, and Ethan watching everything like he was taking mental notes for later. I barely tasted the food. Because every time Noah's knees brushed mine under the table or Ethan’s gaze lingered too long on me, my skin remembered the night with Lila and Camilla. Then suddenly, the fork in my hand felt like thor’s hammer.I found Ethan in the hallway just outside my room, leaning against the wall like he’d been waiting for me. “Hey,” he said quietly. His deep voice vibrated in me.“Hey.”He looked at me… like really looked, but not the casual glan
Isabella’s POV I dragged myself out of bed around nine and stayed in the shower until the water ran cold. It was my turn to use a concealer in covering the worst of the marks.I wore a high-neck top, long jeans. I picked up my phone, messages from my twin brothers about their return flooding my phone. I told them I didn't care. They should remain there, or fuck their way to hell.Deep down I knew I lied. I wanted them home so badly. Something about them made me feel… wanted.When I finally went downstairs, the kitchen smelled of pancakes and bacon.Dad was at the island, scrolling through emails on his phone, he only went to work when it was very important.Camilla was pouring orange juice into glasses, looking calm, and perfect like last night had been a dream.I won't lie she was beautiful and pretty, Dad really got eyes for good things.She looked up when I walked in and smiled. The same warm, motherly smile she always gave me in the morning. “Good morning, darling. Did you sleep
