kai's POV

'What the fuck did I just hear.' My mind scrambled as I pulled the car to a stop on the side of the road.

Okay, I was finding him quite amusing because he said he didn’t have any questions and now he has tons of them, and I’m going to answer every single one. But what did he mean by Lila never stopped when he asked her to? What if I don't stop when he wants me to? Or am I not understanding this question right? I don’t think he meant to spill it, but thank goodness he did. Oh Lila,

  • Claimed by my Fiancee's Stepbrother (BL)   Chapter 174: Princess Room

    Dinner was light on purpose.Adrian plated simple food — roasted chicken, soft vegetables, rice that did not ask anyone to work for it — and set the table without ceremony. The morning still sat in the corners of the house, but hunger had its own authority. Aurelia claimed the seat between Ayesha and Ren. Kai took the end. Adrian poured water and juice and did not make speeches about eating.Ayesha was still little enough that Ren cut her chicken without being asked. She swung her feet under the table and reported, between bites, that the rice was “the good kind” and that Uncle Addy had finally learned the correct amount of salt. Adrian accepted the review with a nod. Aurelia stole a piece of carrot from Ayesha’s plate; Ayesha stole a piece back; the transaction was considered fair by both parties.Kai ate quietly and watched the table the way men watched rooms they had almost broken. Ren’s knee pressed against his under the wood. Every so often Ren’s hand found his wrist, a small rem

    By afternoon the house still carried the morning in its air.No one was shouting anymore. No one was hiding behind anyone. But the quiet had edges. Aurelia had gone back to her colouring after lunch and fallen asleep on the rug with the teddy under one arm. Ren had steered Kai to the sofa and kept him there, legs across his lap, like proximity itself was a corrective. In the kitchen, Adrian had started dinner early, something simple and steady, the kind of cooking that gave his hands a job while the rest of the day settled.Ayesha padded in after him and climbed onto the stool at the island without being asked. She was still soft around the edges, still little, swinging her feet and watching him chop like it was the most interesting thing in the room. Adrian set a cup of juice near her elbow. She drank half of it, then rested her cheek on her folded arms and kept him company in silence that did not ask for anything.---In the living room Ren’s voice stayed low.“What you did this mor

    Kai’s phone rang mid-morning.Adrian’s name. Kai answered on the second ring, already half-reaching for his keys.“Talk.”“We need to discuss a few things. About Cookie. In person. Better if you come today.”Something in Adrian’s tone sat wrong — too level, too careful. Kai’s gut tightened.“I’ll be there in thirty. Ren’s with me.”“Understood.”Kai hung up, found Ren in the kitchen, and kept it short.“Adrian. Cookie. Something’s off. We’re going.”Ren set the mug down without argument and followed him to the car.---Adrian got the message the second the lobby camera flagged Kai’s plates. He stepped into the hall and found Aurelia and Ayesha on the rug with a pile of coloured paper between them.“Cookie. Take your godmother to your room, okay? You two have a little tea party. Don’t come out until I tell you. And don’t let godmother come out either. Not until I call for both of you.”Aurelia nodded at once, solemn.“Okay, Uncle Addy. We’ll go now.”She took Ayesha’s hand. Ayesha went

    Kai picked Ren up off the floor like he weighed nothing and settled him sideways across his lap in the office chair.Ren’s body was still loose and buzzing, the sharp edge of the high fading into something warmer and heavier. Kai wrapped both arms around him and held on, one hand stroking slow lines up and down his back, the other resting at the nape of his neck. Ren tucked his face into the curve of Kai’s throat and just breathed. For a while neither of them spoke. The office was quiet except for the low hum of the building and Ren’s gradually evening breath.“You did so good,” Kai said at last, voice low against Ren’s hair. “You know that?”Ren made a small sound that was half laugh, half shy agreement.“I mean it.” Kai’s thumb kept moving at the base of his skull. “You adapted so fucking well. Two days ago you were still limping hard and now you’re on your knees in my office painting me a picture of exactly how you wanted your throat used — and then delivering on every word of it.

    It had been two days since the silent calls.Reya had found patterns — nothing clean enough to name yet, but enough that Kai still carried tension in his shoulders like a second shirt. Ren was nearly back to full health. The limp was mild now, more memory than injury, and he moved through the house helping where he could, watching Kai from the corners of rooms.He noticed the tightness again that afternoon and walked into the office without knocking. Kai looked up from the desk. Ren limped over, climbed into his lap, and ground down once, slow and deliberate. Kai’s cock stirred under him immediately.“No. No, no, baby. You’re still tender down there.”“I know, but—”“I know you want to help. Not at the expense of your health. I’ll be fine. A little tense. Nothing more.”Ren’s voice dropped.“I want you, baby. Are you going to turn me down?”“Don’t do this.”Ren leaned in and dragged his tongue up the line of Kai’s throat, over his Adam’s apple, and sucked at the point of his chin. Kai

    Kai’s POVKai had stayed on the phone with Ren longer than usual the night before.Not because anything was wrong between them — because Ren had gone quiet in that particular way he did when the world outside their walls felt too sharp, and Kai had walked him through it until the tension left his shoulders. Afterward he took Ren to their bedroom, pulled the covers up, and stayed until Ren’s breathing evened out. They slept tangled, Ren’s face against his chest, Kai’s hand heavy at the small of his back.Around seven the phone started.Not one call. Non-stop. The same unknown number, ringing, cutting, ringing again. Kai extracted his arm carefully so he wouldn’t wake Ren, reached for the phone on the nightstand, and put it to his ear.Silence.No breathing he could catch. No background noise worth mapping. Just an open line and the weight of someone listening. Kai waited five full seconds, then ended the call. The screen lit up again almost immediately. He rejected it, locked the phone
