The sunlight sliced through Kain’s skull like a blade.

He stormed out of the church, fists clenched, chest heaving. The heat stung his eyes—whether from the sun, the rage boiling inside him, or the way Jade ripped his heart out at the altar, he couldn’t tell.

He snatched the keys from his driver without a word, yanked the door open, slammed into the seat, and shoved the car into reverse.

The tires screeched as he flew down the street like a man possessed.

No—like a man hunted.

By fire?

No.

By Rob.

If he had stayed another second in that church and watched that bastard touch her again—he’d be in jail for murder. Would’ve broken his jaw. Maybe worse.

—

Two days. Kain disappeared.

No calls. No texts. Phone dead. Curtains drawn.

Kain hid from the world and buried himself in the darkness.

Locked himself in his penthouse.

Shirtless. Still in tuxedo trousers. Bed soaked in sweat and silence.The room reeked of loneliness, of a man who hadn’t moved in days, of pain s

  • After One Night With My Sister’s Prized Possession    Chapter 21: Easy, Wifey

    Kain had pulled the truth out of her ,piece by piece. God. She had just dodged hell with Madeline. No. Focus. Breathe. Hold it together. He can’t know… not everything. It would only cause more trouble for her. He caught her wrist, pulling her close—protective, possessive, impossible to breathe around. “Easy, wifey… I’m sorry I stressed you out. It won’t happen again. I promise. Not in this way.” His thumb brushed her jaw, tucking her hair aside with maddening gentleness. “You’ve lost weight… those sleepless nights, you weren’t hiding them from me, were you?” His hand found hers, warm and steady, thumb tracing slow circles over her knuckles. “I haven’t slept a single night since you left. I was terrified… terrified of losing you. But I don’t care that you’re a Baudin. I don’t care about anyone or anything else. I choose you. Always. And I’ll fight for you, every single day, for as long as I live.” Her voice trembled. “You don’t have to pretend you care abo

  • After One Night With My Sister’s Prized Possession    Chapter 20: I SAID LEAVE!

    “Then defend yourself,” Kain said evenly, voice low, deliberate. “Congratulations,” he murmured. “You’ve just been given the job.” “…The job?” “Defend yourself well enough,” he stepped closer, shadowed eyes beneath the cap locking on hers, “and maybe you’ll keep it.” “…I got hurt too,” she admitted, voice cracking. “Yes… I lied. I chose my ex over Kain Wolf. I thought—” her breath stuttered, “I thought it would hurt him less if he didn’t know.” A scoff cut her off. Sharp. Venom-laced. “You thought what, Jade?” he said quietly. “That making Kain a fool would protect him? Or that it would save you?” Her throat tightened. “…But my intentions were pure. Always were.” Something flickered in his eyes…betrayal, confusion, and the faintest trace of longing. “You made him feel like a joke,” he said, voice low and tight. “Like everything he felt meant nothing. And you think saying your intentions were pure fixes that?” She swallowed, guilt burning hot beneath her ribs. “

    “HAHAHA!” “REVENGE MOOD ACTIVATED?” Rob’s laughter split the room…wild, jagged and unhinged. “You’re gonna kill me, huh?” he sneered, eyes bloodshot. “You whore?” Jade’s voice trembled. “Whore?! Don’t forget that you slept with my big sister. Lied to my face for months. And I still stayed like a fool . But stealing my career..” her breath caught, “that’s something I can’t forgive you for!” He stepped closer, smirking. “Oh, you’re so ungrateful. After screwing your billionaire boy toy, you still act holy and try to paint me like I’m the only sinner here? I offered you marriage to make up for it. Every girl’s golden dream. Ain’t I your first love now? Liar.” “You think marriage is something I should thank you for, Rob?” “ You bled me dry. My time, my confidence, my trust. You broke me. Bit by bit, until I couldn’t recognize myself.” Her breath shook, but her eyes blazed. “You made me do things I swore I never would just to make you feel a fraction of the pain you l

  • After One Night With My Sister’s Prized Possession    Chapter 18: Smoke and Mirrors

    The smell of burning eggs clawed through the air. Jade didn’t move. She stood over the frying pan, arms braced on the counter, eyes hollow and locked on the curling smoke—like her life, blackened at the edges, too far gone to save, yet too stubborn to throw away. Her chest rose and fell in a slow, furious rhythm. God. What had she become? A woman who gave up her career for the man who betrayed her—with her sister. A woman reduced to cooking burnt eggs in a polished soulless apartment while he walked free, pretending he was the victim. “All I did to get back at you, Rob…” she whispered, her voice raw. Her grip whitened around the counter. “…sorry, not sorry. You deserve worse.” That soft, hopeful voice inside—the one that used to whisper good people win—was gone. Because what had “good” ever done for her? Her family disowned her. Her name was dirt. And Kain—the man who made her believe she could rebuild—had a wife tucked neatly behind closed doors while she

  • After One Night With My Sister’s Prized Possession    Chapter 17: How About Option One?

    “Sir… I have to tell you something. Jade—she’s a fraud.”Mario’s words sliced through the quiet.For a heartbeat, Kain didn’t breathe.The air smelled of polish and paint, sharp enough to burn.Behind him, a roller squeaked against the wall—too normal for words that heavy.He looked up at last. His face was stone, voice flat.“Right. Of course she is.”A humorless smirk ghosted across his mouth.“Maybe that’s what I get. Karma.”He raked a hand over his jaw, cap shadowing his eyes.“All those perfect pedigrees—models, heiresses, the polished and obedient. I broke too many hearts to expect mine to stay whole.”A low, cracked laugh escaped.“Guess it’s my turn to be the fool.”He turned to leave—but Mario’s next words stopped him cold.“On the bright side,” Mario said quietly, “she isn’t the fraud. She was painted to be. Her ex—Rob—is.”Kain froze.“What?”Mario motioned to the wall. “Yesterday I noticed something off. One of the paintings from your private collection pieces—the one si

  • After One Night With My Sister’s Prized Possession    Chapter 16: Tough Luck

    “I’m sorry, Kain. I will never be your wife.” The words still echoed painfully in his head like an alarm that refused to stop. It didn’t matter how many drinks he took, he could still hear her voice every time silence fell. Kain gripped the golf club tighter until his knuckles turned white. His chest ached, but he forced his face to stay calm. He couldn’t look weak here. Not in front of them. “Rough day, Evans?” one of his partners laughed, patting his shoulder after another missed shot. The ball rolled off, far from the hole. The group chuckled. Kain straightened, forcing a smirk. “Just testing the wind.” But it wasn't true. He’d had ten glasses of whiskey and still couldn’t feel anything except the emptiness she left behind. The sun hit his face bronzed under it, as he squared up again. His black polo clung to his shoulders. He looked every inch the man who had it all; money, looks, control. But his jaw was tight. His eyes were tired. He swung again. One miss … Two. Thr
