Brother After Dark Chapter 14
Blaire.Zachary used to love me. He would do anything for me. But now, he was making me miserable. Even when he’s not around, the fact that I knew he was going out his way to avoid me was killing me. When he did speak to me, he had to be so damn insensitive and harsh! It was like he lived and breathed his hatred for me, and he was not shy about it. Or he touched me in appropriate ways, making me want him so badly I was close to forgetting who he was or where we were.I fell asleep crying, like I always did in the past two months.***Monday morning, I dressed up in a royal blue skirt that ended a few inches above my knees and a tucked-in white chiffon turtleneck with a white tube underneath. I completed the ensemble with a pair of black boots. I was wearing a pair of black boy shorts under the skirt as a backup for any wardrobe malfunction. I curled the ends of my hair and put on a blue hairband. I didn’t put on makeup, just red lip gloss. I took one last look at myself in the mirror,

I took a deep breath and nodded.Zachary put an arm around my shoulder and pulled me toward the entrance. We crossed the school ground in a race against the rain. By the time we reached the main corridor, my shirt was a little drenched, and I could feel myself shivering from the cold.Zach slipped out of his jacket and put it around my shoulders. “Here, wear this. Next time, listen to me, okay? I told you to change your clothes.”“Because you thought it was slutty,” I murmured.“Because weather forecasts say it’s gonna be cloudy with90 percent chance of rain today,” he argued.I stared up at him in surprise. How did he know that?The bell rang.Zachary looked down at me. “After your last period, I will meet you up here. We’ll go home together.”“That’s not necessary. I’ll be fine on my own,” I said.He raised a brow at me. “Last period. Right on this spot,” he repeated, his voice more authoritative this time.He put his hands on my shoulders, spun me around, and then gently pushed me

April stared at me for a long moment, probably scrutinizing my features. Zach and I had no common feature. My blond hair was a different shade. My eyes were golden, his were blue, like my parents’, which actually made me look adopted. Not only that. I felt adopted too. There was a huge difference in the way my parents treated us. Even when we were kids. My mother adored him. My father was training him to be his successor. He drove a luxury sports car; my parents didn’t even ask if I knew how to drive so they could get me my own car. We both attended the concert in Charleston. Zach probably paid for Kenzo and Mike’s tickets. Jessie paid for mine. I roomed with my friends in a three-star motel. Zach had his own suite in a five-star hotel near the concert grounds. I went home on a train that took fourteen hours. Zach came home on a domestic flight.He was the adopted one. Actually, he’s not even adopted anymore because the courts nullified all that when his father protested his adoption,

Zach was silent.“Zachary…” I whispered.He sighed. “It doesn’t matter what I wanted, baby girl.”“But did you?” I asked. I was desperate to know. I wanted to understand why he was so angry at me.“Why do you want to know?” he asked. “You already chose our fate. And you didn’t even ask me what I wanted. So, no, you don’t get to ask me those questions.”There was a trace of sadness and frustration in his voice. And it broke my heart because I felt like I broke his heart when that was the last thing I wanted to do. But I couldn’t risk it. Once we crossed that line, there would be no turning back for him and me. At least this way, we still had a chance to repair our relationship. He’ll always be my brother. If I slept with him, we’d always have that between us. Forever. Even someday when we get married and have our own families. He’ll be the uncle of my children. How could I feel comfortable with him around or look at him in the eye knowing that I slept with him?We may not be related by

“How are you holding up, girl? Your parents giving you grief?” Marie asked on the other line. She’d been settling down in college too. We’ve been getting in touch in social media, but it was the first time I got to speak to her over the phone.“Not really. How can they give me grief when they don’t mind me at all, right?” I asked sarcastically.“Awww! So, nothing changed?”I sighed. “Many things have changed, but not so much in that area. Can we not talk about my parents?”I walked lazily toward the building on the east where my next class was going to be. This was the class I dreaded most. It was my last period, and we were doing tons of boring readings.“Okay. Have you heard from Z? You guys were pretty hot and heavy when you parted. I’m sure you’re not a virgin anymore! We didn’t have to ask. You practically had stars in your eyes.” She sounded so excited, so happy, I lost the courage to tell her the truth about Zachary and me.I took a deep breath. “I didn’t sleep with him,” I sai

“Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were dating anybody, Ms. Stewart,” he said apologetically.“No, this is my…” I started saying that Zachary was my brother.But my brother was quick to cut me off. “Zachary Reed.” I didn’t miss the emphasis he gave on his surname.“Alrick Thomas.” They shook each other’s hands. Then Alrick backed off and smiled at me politely. “See you around.” Then he left.I turned to Zachary. “Excuse me. What was that about?”He stared back at me innocently. “What?”“Now, he’s probably thinking that we’re dating.”He raised a brow at me. “So?”“We’re not. You’re my brother!”“Yeah, yeah! Like I need another reminder,” he said. Then he took my books from my arms and walked toward the stairs with me lagging behind him.“He’s not the only one thinking we’re dating,” I said.“Really? Who else?”“There was this girl, Stephanie Bell.”He smirked. “Oh, her.”“Are you dating her?” I asked, my voice slightly raised.“Jealous?” he asked in a teasing tone.“Of course not!” I s

I swallowed hard. Staring at Zachary’s beautiful face, his dazzling eyes made me squirm on my seat. I can feel the heat radiating between my legs. I was almost afraid that he could feel how hot I was becoming… that he could smell the gush of moisture from my pussy.Unable to bear his closeness and the weight of his stare, I turned away from him, moving towards the door, as far away from him as possible.I cleared my throat. “Yeah,” I breathed. “Your my big brother. I’m sure you won’t do anything to hurt me.”He smirked and then he turned back to the road. “Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”We drove in silence. I was getting used to his presence as a brother. He’s one guy who liked the same things I do. Someone who would go to lengths to protect me, keep me away from harm. I knew I trusted no one else more than I trusted him. The silence between us didn’t feel awkward anymore. Instead, it felt comfortable… assuring.The road was slippery and wet. Like there was a storm all evening, and I w

I must have waited for an eternity. And then… nothing. I didn’t feel his lips on me. I realized I didn’t feel any part of my body touching his. Then I heard him say, “Midnight snack?” Slowly, I opened my eyes. He was staring down at me with an amused expression on his face. “What did you say?” I asked. “I said, I’m hungry. I would like you to cook midnight snack for us,” he replied. I blinked back at him. “Tha-that’s all?” He took a step back and blinked back at me. The look on his face was innocent and amused at the same time. And suddenly, I felt confused. “Yes. That’s all. Your friends said you can cook. And suddenly, I’m starving. What do you say? Cook for your big brother?” Shit! Is he fucking kidding me? I took a moment to compose myself. Then I smiled back at him. “Sure. What do you want to eat?” He shrugged. “Something with soup would be perfect for the weather.” He pointed at the kitchen. “Knock yourself out.” I nodded and walked toward the kitchen. Suddenly, I f
