Killain

From the corner of my eyes, Raven rolled her eyes and strolled in the opposite direction just as Scarlett's lips touched my skin.

It's always at a time like this that my reflex has to fail me by a fraction of a second. Unfortunately, Raven was not around to watch me push her away.

I gritted my teeth, stopping myself from snapping her bones. She was still smiling up at me and even attempted to hug me again, but I pushed her back a little too hard, and she stumbled and fell on the fl

  • Craved By My Husband's Brother    095. You're Stuck With Me

    RavenEvery sound in the apartment, the ticking wall clock, the rats in the kitchen, the distant hum of traffic outside all collapsed into that one voice in my ear.“Found you.”My lungs tightened; I couldn't breathe, I couldn't blink. I couldn't even open my mouth to scream for help. My Pepper spray and taser were in my bedroom. I have no weapon for defence except for this pillow in my belly.The scent of amouage and cigarettes wrapped around me like chains, thick and choking. Slowly..so painfully slowly, I lifted my face from the hard wall of his chest hoping against hope that this wasn't happening.But no…it was.It's him, Nero!My lips parted in horror as I quivered.He was smiling down at me. The type of smile that hinted at mockery and triumph. It was the kind of smile a wolf would wear before sinking its teeth into its prey. “N-no…” My voice cracked so badly it was barely audible. I stumbled back with shaky legs until I hit the counter. My fingers spread against it, searchin

  • Craved By My Husband's Brother    094. Found you

    Raven By morning he was gone, so I went back to my studio apartment to get prepared for work. I got to my studio apartment by 6am and it took another half hour for me to realize that my house didn’t smell like it usually did. I hadn't been able to get the dusty cotton smell out of the house since I moved in, but now it might as well have been washed with amouage and a subtle hint of cigarettes.I dropped my purse on the bed and did a house tour. My heart was beating widely. I was vigilant as I came here, no one followed me. I was sure of it. Nothing was out of place, just the smell and my water plant. My lock wasn't broken so what's this all about. Or was it my hormones kicking in again. I didn't have time to start recounting the event so I got dressed and headed for the hospital. As usual, Scarlett was on my toes. Following me everywhere and pointing out all the mistakes I made, which was none. Then starts bragging about how the boss calls her everyday to make sure everything w

  • Craved By My Husband's Brother    093. Obsessed in Silence

    RavenTwo days.Then three, four, five… now it's a week. No calls, texts, or letters. Just nothing.I know I should not be expecting anything from him. For the hundredth time, it's over between us but somehow I just can't bring myself to believe that what happened in his office was all for nothing.We kissed okay!Killian doesn't kiss.And if he kissed me then there should be a hidden meaning right? Like maybe, he wants some space but still wants me.I've been going crazy thinking about it. It's even worse now that I've resumed my Internship. Scarlett hasn't stopped picking on me at any chance she's got especially as Killain wasn't around.And the worst part? He calls her.She's still his secretary so he calls her to get updated on the hospital activities and she coincidentally always makes the call in front of me and on the loudspeaker. It shouldn't affect me but it did. Why am I even expecting him to check up on me? He's moving on with his life. I should too. When my four-hour s

  • Craved By My Husband's Brother    092. An Angry Fuck

    RavenHe did.He just did.And he still is.I'm breathing like a hungry dog, trying to keep my countenance in check. This is the first time our faces are touching, the first time our lips are touching. I can tell he's feeling the heat.Because his chest was rising and falling drastically as he moved his lips. His grip had tightened around my neck, holding me in place.“I hate that he kissed you.” He breathed on my cheek before delving into my mouth.He was rough, so rough that it felt like punishment. Without a doubt, it is. It's punishment for allowing Nero to kiss me first.He bit down on my lips and I winced, wanting to pull back, but he didn't let me. He kissed me deeper, tilting my jaw forcefully and forcing my mouth open.I gave in eventually because I've always wanted this. I've always wanted him to be this close and for us to be this intimate, not just on a sexual level.I've always wanted him to kiss me.My back crashed against the wall as he pressed his clothed body on my ba

  • Craved By My Husband's Brother    091. A Dangerous Kind of Comfort

    Raven“I'm sorry….I don't know why I'm crying. I'm just ….” I sniffed, my shoulders trembling.I tried wiping the tears that had soaked my face but even my sleeves were too wet to absorb any more moisture. Great! Now my little makeup was ruined. I probably look like a burnt muffin. I took a deep shaky breath and forced a smile as I looked up. He was staring at me; his expression twisted in something I couldn't explain. There was this hint of hurt in his eyes but I pushed it out of my head. I don't want to imagine things.I picked up the gum wrapper that had fallen to the ground.“ I'll um….I'll take my leave now.” I said and turned on my heels.I hadn't taken two steps when he grabbed my wrist.“ Wait…” He said. His touch was just as I remembered: warm, yet cold at the same time. I turned towards him, expecting him to say something but instead…he grabbed my shoulders and pulled me against his chest. My face pressed against his broad frame tightly and I could only inhale his scent

    Raven So, yeah, my aunt came to my apartment some days later, courtesy of my persistent mother.She didn't come alone. She came with her husband to convince me to move back to Phoenix with them and leave the Markov's alone. Now, my mother is dragging the whole family lineage into this.It's ironic! I thought she flared up and left me alone for good. Why did she have to drag my favourite aunt into this?My aunt started talking.“ It's a long story, dear. I can't tell you all of it but you have to believe me." She said as we all sat in a circle on the rug in my studio apartment.“Your mum told me you've lost your memories and it makes sense why you think we are all against you.” I rolled my eyes for the fourth time now.“ I don't need you to tell me that. I'm already in therapy." I didn't tell her I could no longer afford the therapy. She doesn't need to know that. “ Look, some years ago while you were still a little girl. Your parents and the Markovs used to be close. " She started

    Raven I took slow steps into the room and towards Killian. I kept my face neutral and from where I stood, I could see the conflict in his eyes. “Raven….I…” He started and I raised a finger, shutting him up. I dropped the CT scan results on the table roughly, crossing my hands over my chest.“ E

    Killian Scarlett is tapping her feet on the floor, staring at me with a frown on her face and a glare. Her fists clenched on her thighs with Alex sitting beside her and sipping on a pumpkin-spiced latte. I just woke up and was told I had been out the entire day. I feel a bit better though. I st
