~Ethan~

Sage blinked his eyes as his bulgy blue eyes stared up at me, “I… I saw it on the ground,” he stammered, his gaze shifting to the floor.

I didn't probe any further. I have gotten what I wanted anyways, although something feels wrong. The bracelet looks new, and the rubbery body feels very warm… like someone just made it from scratch.

I tapped the switch button, and the screen came on. With urgency, I swiped it across and tapped on the tracker app. A live location came into full view; I showed this to Selina, who looked happy and relieved.

“Thank goodness, I think he is still in transit.” She is right; the location is swiftly moving, so he was clearly on his way somewhere. Now, we need to go drop Sage off with Avery because we don't know when we will be back.

I have tried convincing Selina to stay back, but she has insisted. She kept mentioning that the boy is also her child and his safety was paramount to her. That statement got to me, and I finally gave up on convincing her

    ~Selina~Ethan and I simultaneously turned around at the sound of Arthur. To our relief, he was just talking in his sleep. I tucked him properly in his bed and placed a soft kiss on his cheek.I saw a frown form on Ethan's face; this made me feel dejected. So his contract still stands. I think I should know my place now.“So…” I heard Ethan's voice and stood up from the bed. “I am thinking, can Sage stay with him till he recovers? Since you are going on a vacation, that will relieve you as well.”Wow! Why haven't I thought of that? Hearing it from him excited me more. I can't wait for the kids to bond with each other.Without thinking or wasting time, I replied, “Sure, sure, he can stay with him. I will just ask him if he is okay with it.” Ethan nodded, and we concluded at that point.We both acted like strangers put together in a room; no one spoke anything to each other. Ethan's gaze was fixed on his phone; he was seriously typing like his life depended on it. Why does it seem like

  • Accidental Surrogate For My Bestfriend's Brother    Guilt cleared

    ~Selina~I jumped from the bed with urgency; lips shaking, and eyes covered in guilt. Aria's gaze shifted between me and her brother, but most specifically, it lingered more on me.She strolled towards Arthur and gently placed the aid box on the table beside his bedstand. After this, she turned to me and said, “Do you mind explaining why you are here?”I could sense the control in her tone. Her lashes were fluttering without control, her knuckles tightened, and her teeth slightly gritted. I panicked inside. What have I done? How did I get so relaxed that I forgot that this man is my best friend's brother?“Hmn, I… I… I was just," I tried explaining, but words failed me.Aria closed her eyes and released a heavy puff of air.“Can't talk again? Can you just tell me what the fuck you are doing in my brother's house? You didn't even inform me,” her eyes slightly turned red. She bit hard on her bottom lip till it got a little tear.“Sorry, Aria, it's just—” I was cut off by a heavy slap on

  • Accidental Surrogate For My Bestfriend's Brother    Aria barged in on us

    ~Selina~I sat in the living room with toys scattered all over the floor, but neither of the kids was with me. I heard they had run off to the garden to play with the flowers. I sighed! How I wish I were as free as those innocent souls.I have been tapping my feet continuously on the ground, my patience thinning out at the realization that Ethan wasn't going to call me. Now, I feel bad. Maybe I had overreacted; maybe I shouldn't have brought up his call with that annoying leech.“Whatever,” I sneered, followed by an eye roll.Seconds later, I heard a car horn outside. I rushed out with a speed that was almost inhumane. The first person I landed my eyes on was Ethan. Our eyes met, and we maintained that contact for a few seconds until I broke it. I glanced behind him, and someone was curled up on the chair. It was Arthur, and he looked like he was catching a cold.I didn't bother to say anything to Ethan. Since he wants to start with the silent treatment, I will give him the pleasure t

  • Accidental Surrogate For My Bestfriend's Brother    Meeting With The Mysterious Boss

    ~Peony~I gritted my teeth in annoyance, “How dare he hang up on me? Isn't he such a useless fool?” I tightened my knuckle around the phone. The old nanny was on her knees, shivering in front of me. A thought came to my mind. I smiled while I mentally pictured how good it would feel when I bring the plan to plan. I will make Ethan cry; I will make him kowtow and plead to me. I will make him sweat and lick it.“Hey, get me my puff,” the old granny stood from the ground and rushed towards the direction of my room. I snickered.I love when people are afraid of me. It gives me joy and calms the devil residing within me. Mrs. Meyer returned minutes later, holding my pack of cigarettes. I snatched it off her hand, dusting off the imaginary dirt on it.“Fool,” I rolled my eyes and kicked her in her stomach. She winced and fell on the floor; she held her knee to her chest, her free hand clinging to her stomach.With a hiss, I stood from the chair and walked to the balcony. The cold afternoo

  • Accidental Surrogate For My Bestfriend's Brother    Sage's little secret

    ~Ethan~I faced Selina who instantly understood what I was trying to say, she nodded and brought out her phone. She called a number which rang a couple of times before someone picked it up.“Hi pretty woman,” a cute girl's voice came from the phone and the girl was none other than Avery.“Hi Avery, I need your help,” Selina didn't waste time with the greetings and I could already picture a sad pout on Avery's lip.“Your dad gave you a bracelet right? A cute pink bracelet, it's a pair and the second one was given to Arthur, do you remember?” I could sense the carefulness in her choice of words.Avery seemed to think about it for a while. This short moment felt like forever to both Selina and I. Our toes were constantly clicking on the floor, our two hands were dramatically placed on our waist and any that entered the room would quickly sense our anxiousness.“Ohh, I remember.”I didn't know when I released the air I was holding. That is such a huge relief…. The relief only lasted a whi
