Stephanie: I wasn't sure how long I sat on my bed after Zane left. I couldn't bring myself to move, despite the fact that I wanted to. Tucking my hair behind my ear, I glanced around, wondering where I had dropped my hair tie because my hair was messy and suddenly tickling at my nape. A sigh escaped my lips before I finally stood up, gently setting Ronnie down from my arms and walking into the bathroom. When I stepped back into the room, I felt oddly on edge. My gaze drifted to the door as I wondered if it was safe to step out now without running into Zane. I reached for my phone on the bedside table, swiping the screen awake and checking the time before padding over to get a bonnet, sweeping my hair into the cap and tightening it at my nape. It was 11 p.m. Could he be asleep by now? After a moment of hesitation, I decided to step out and get some water. I couldn’t survive another minute with my throat this dry. I slowly opened the door and peeked out, my heart pounding. The

Zane: I stepped out of the bathroom after handling the hard-on I had carried into Stephanie's room and left without resolving due to her fucking aggressive devil of a cat. I needed to put my mind on anything, anything at all that didn't involve thinking of her or even thinking about her. I dashed out of her room without looking back like a fucking pathetic human that simply didn't want to admit that the fear that she might feel forced into this scared me. It was hypocritical how much I kept terming this as nothing but something we were both doing simply based on responsibility. It was supposed to be simple: her, me, some kind of release. But the second the damned cat lunged at me, everything fell apart. My body and stupid ego all went up in flames. I ran my hands over my face. “Fucking hell,” I muttered, because calling it anything else would’ve been admitting something I wasn’t ready to admit. That’s the real problem. I wanted her. I wanted her in the physical sense. And th

Chapter 31Stephanie:I slammed the door to my room harder than I wanted to. My back pressed against the hard surface for what felt like minutes before I pushed myself away, rushing over to the sockets to switch the lights off.Sloane’s words from the other day still tugged at the corner of my mind, and a sharp tug suddenly pulled at my chest, making me wonder if the reason he had said he wanted intimacy without the lights on was because he just didn't want to see my face when we were at it.I brushed the thoughts away with a shake of my head.The memory of the last time we had sex ignited something warm in the lower part of my stomach. And before I could reconsider and back out from what was on my mind, I quickly walked to the closet and grabbed some lingerie.Right as I picked it up, I reconsidered it because what we were doing wasn't that deep, and the man wouldn't even see the fabric on me, so what was the need to wear it?With a troubled sigh, I hung it back and simply walked to
Claimed By My Ex's Billionaire Brother 30. Tired?
Stephanie: The question was so sudden and caught me off guard that the water went down the wrong way. I sucked in a breath and instantly started choking. I clutched the edge of the table, coughing violently, my chest seizing as the burn tore through my throat. The glass slipped from my fingers and clinked loudly against the table as water splashed over the surface. “Stephanie.” Zane’s chair scraped back hard. Another cough tore out of me and my eyes burned, tears blurring my vision as my lungs spasmed. I couldn’t get enough air in. Suddenly, his firm hand came down between my shoulder blades. He pressed twice, and the force knocked the breath back into me. I gasped, coughing again before finally drawing in the air. My chest heaved as I bent forward, one hand braced on the table, the other pressed to my sternum. My eyes pressed shut and I tried letting out soft breath slowly. “Breathe,” Zane said, his hands gently massaged my shoulders, not exactly doing anything but givin

Stephanie: The knock came softly at first, pulling me out of a heavy sleep. I stirred, my brows pulling together as the sound came again. My head felt thick, like it was stuffed with cotton, and my body was weighed down, unwilling to move. “Stephanie?” a woman’s voice called through the door. “Are you awake?” I blinked my eyes open, squinting at the room. For a moment, I had no idea where I was or how long I’d been asleep. The curtains were open, and the light outside looked darker. I pushed myself up slowly, my neck aching. “Yeah,” I managed out roughly. “I’m awake.” The door opened a little, and Felicia peeked in, her pair of eyes immediately catching mine. “I didn’t want to disturb you, but dinner is ready.” I glanced around the room, my heart sinking as reality settled back in. Ronnie was curled beside me, fast asleep. “Oh,” I murmured. “I…I must’ve slept longer than I thought.” Felicia smiled with a nod. “You did. Mr. Wright got back from work a while ago.” She hesitate

Zane: I could hardly pay attention to the meeting going on or the piles of files that needed my signature. In fact, I couldn't concentrate on anything, because soon after Stephanie stepped out of my room, looking absolutely rejected, it tugged at a corner of my mind that perhaps I had been too harsh and too blunt with her. But it wasn't wholly my fault, and I understood that because she was clearly the one trying to cross the boundaries we had already clearly drawn. I was beginning to doubt if this was even going to be as easy as I had been promising myself for the past few days. Perhaps it would have been better to go for someone I had not a single interest in their life. Instead of going for someone I was particularly interested in having a physical—only physical—connection with.Did I make a mistake by even proposing this agreement to begin with?This was just day three... From what I’d seen so far, Stephanie wasn’t someone who could just listen and move on, which is why she
