CHAPTER 045: The Real Business

last update Huling Na-update: 2025-04-28 11:41:34

I stare at Knox, impatiently awaiting an answer. My heart thuds too fast for how casual I’m trying to look.

He keeps his gaze ahead, fingers flexing once against the steering wheel before settling again.

“Because I’m certified to carry it,” he says.

I frown, not satisfied.

“Okay. But why do you have it in your car?”

“Where else should it be?”

“Hidden at home? You know. Somewhere people can’t just… see it?”

He finally turns his head to look at me, that unreadable expression back in place.

The one that makes me feel like he’s dissecting me, deciding whether I’m someone who deserves answers or just another person he’ll keep at arm’s length.

“You stole my keys to get into my glove box,” he says. “You think I let people sit in my car by themselves?”

I feel my cheeks heat, guilt pooling low in my gut.

Touché, Knox.

I turn my head away, facing the window. Fine. I might have crossed a line. But he’s still the one walking around with a weapon like we’re in an action movie.

  • Craving The Wrong Brother   CHAPTER 094: Cold Day In Hell

    When I finally head down, I hover in the stairway, trying to count familiar faces. Yep—some of these people I remember from that cursed matchmaking barbecue. But one face in particular is glaring at me like I’m a roach on the floor.Jade.I forgot my stepfather works for Knox.“Over here,” Knox calls, already seated with a plate of cake in hand.I walk toward him, spotting the only available wide space on the couch—right between him and Jade. Hell. No. I make a quick decision and aim for the tighter space beside a guy I vaguely recognize. But before I can slip in, Knox hooks an arm around my waist and pulls me down, right into his lap.I barely regain my balance before he's addressing the crowd.“Hey, everyone,” he says, “meet my girlfriend, Sloane.”I freeze.Every head turns. One guy, cake stuffed in his mouth, blurts, “Your girlfriend’s cute, boss, and I can swear she looks familiar.”The guy beside him kicks him in the leg.“Aww,” he says. “I was just saying he played a fast one,

  • Craving The Wrong Brother   CHAPTER 093: It's Not A Competition

    Waking up to someone watching you, someone who doesn’t live in the house, is by far the creepiest thing on Earth. Soraya’s hands are folded in her lap. Legs crossed. Perfectly poised and casual, as if this were normal behavior, to watch your ex-husband and his girlfriend sleep. I can feel the rage start to rise up my throat. “You have a key?” I say. “Is that supposed to be an excuse? You're in Knox’s bedroom while we’re both naked.” “You’re under the sheets. I’m only sitting here because I figured it’s a bad idea to wake Knox spontaneously, him being ex-military and paranoid. Don’t want to get tackled down.” Her tone is light, indifferent. Like I’m the one being dramatic for questioning her. I push myself higher up the bed, sheet still clutched to my chest. I don’t know what annoys me more—the fact that she’s still sitting there when she's been caught or the fact that she doesn’t sound the least bit guilty about it. “You need to leave,” I say, trying to keep my voice from rising.

  • Craving The Wrong Brother   CHAPTER 092: Let Me In

    He doesn't reply. Instead, he drizzles more lube onto me and rubs against my heat. He starts slow, pushing one finger in, the lube making wet, squelching sounds as he eases in. I moan, finally getting that itch scratched. One finger becomes two, and then three, and then four, until I’m clenching around him."Breathe, Sloane," he says. "Let me in." I try to relax, to do as he says, but my body is tight, my muscles clenched with both need and fright now that I realize what he intends to do.“You're doing great. Just let go a little more.”I take a deep breath, and he uses the opportunity to push in further, his five fingers breaking through.He starts to move, pushing and pushing.I feel myself stretching, feel myself giving way to him, and it's intense, the pleasure, the pain, the fullness, all overwhelming, all consuming. "Knox," I moan, not sure if I want more or want him to stop. He kisses me on the cheek. "You can take it. Just open up. Let go. Feel." I do until it feels like a

  • Craving The Wrong Brother   CHAPTER 091: Good Things

    Knox's hands are strong and sure as he guides me to the suspension apparatus. He moves with his eyes fixed on mine, and I see the intensity in his gaze, the promise of what's to come. My heart is pounding, my body already aching with anticipation.Once there, he lowers me gently into the harness hanging from the overhead rig. The leather is cool and smooth against my bare skin. I shiver, goosebumps rising on my flesh, and he notices, smirking."I've got you, Sloane," he says.He starts to secure my arms, pulling them up and apart. The leather cuffs click into place around my wrists. I test the restraints, pulling against them. They're solid. My arms are stretched wide, my body exposed and vulnerable. I can feel the slight tremor in my muscles as I hold myself up, and I take a deep breath, trying to calm my racing heart. "You trust me, right?" he asks."You know I do.”He smiles, a soft, genuine smile that makes my heart flutter, and he leans down, claiming my mouth with his. I can't

  • Craving The Wrong Brother   CHAPTER 090: His Anchor

    Knox's lips on mine are gentle at first. I press harder into the kiss, hungry for more, pulling him with me like I'm trying to merge us. My fingers glide up his back, and then I drag my nails down, sharp enough to leave a mark, maybe even draw blood. He groans into my mouth, the sound deep and raw, and then the kiss changes—no more softness, no hesitation. Just heat. Just need. His fingers dive into my hair, gripping tight at the roots, and the roughness makes me moan. My hips grind down on him instinctively, feeling him swell beneath me. He pulls away, breathless. “You need to get off,” he whispers. “Why?” I ask, rolling my hips again just to tease. “Fuck. No… You said we need to work on the other parts of our relationship. No sex. Remember?” I swallow. “Well, I…” “I’m your boyfriend. I’m supposed to help you keep your hands off me.” I don’t know what to say to that. I definitely wasn’t this turned on when I made that no-sex rule. Back then, it felt noble. Now it feels like a

  • Craving The Wrong Brother   CHAPTER 089: Crazy Woman

    “Everybody stay back,” Finn says, holding the blade just below the end of his cast, pressing it to the exposed skin of his wrist. The metal catches the light in a way that makes my stomach twist. “This could’ve ended better, but you don’t stop until someone’s dead or in the hospital, Knox. So here we are.”Knox doesn’t move. His hands are in his pockets, and his eyes are on his brother like he’s watching someone pull a party trick. It terrifies me, the way he looks so… unfazed.Victoria looks horrified. She’s gone pale. I don’t know what I feel. Cold? Numb? Detached in that way you get when your brain won’t let you absorb something all at once. But I do know one thing—I don’t want to see Finn open his wrists. Not in front of me. Not ever.“Is that supposed to move me, Finn?” Knox says, his tone flat. “You sent Mom to me with some lie about Lydia, hoping I’d come running. And now you think pulling a knife will somehow make me forgive you?”“Lie about Lydia?” Finn says. “What are you ta
