I couldn't breathe. My chest felt like someone had wrapped a fist around my heart and was squeezing. Hard. I stumbled down the hallway, one hand pressed against the wall to keep myself upright. My vision blurred. Everything looked like it was underwater. Arthur and Holly. In his bed. In our bed. The image kept replaying in my head. His hands in her hair. Her laugh. The way he looked at her like she was everything. Like I was nothing. My legs gave out halfway to the elevator. I hit the wall and slid down, gasping for air that wouldn't come. My hands clawed at my chest, trying to make the pain stop. It didn't stop. God, it hurts. It hurt so much. How long has this been going on? How many times had he lied to me? How many times had he touched her the way he refused to touch me? The elevator dinged. I forced myself to stand. My legs shook. My whole body shook. I had to get out of here. I had to leave before—The elevator doors opened. I didn't look. I just ran straight into someone. Hard. The crash knocked the air out of my lungs. I stumbled back, my hands flying up. "I am sorry…I am so sorry…" My voice cracked. Tears spilled down my cheeks. "I am sorry, I didn't….I wasn't looking…I'm sorry…" I couldn't stop apologizing. The words kept coming, over and over, like if I said them enough, something would stop hurting. But nothing stopped hurting. My knees buckled. I hit the floor, and the sobs I had been holding back finally broke free. I buried my face in my hands and cried. Right there in the hallway. In front of a stranger. I didn't care anymore. Someone knelt in front of me. A hand reached out. Fingers gripped my chin…firm but not rough…and tilted my face up. I blinked through my tears. Green eyes. Sharp. Intense. The kind of green that looked like they could see straight through you. He was beautiful. Like, stupidly beautiful. Dark hair, perfect jawline, the kind of face that belonged on a magazine cover or in some luxury cologne ad. An angel. That's what he looked like. An angel kneeling in front of a mess like me. His thumb brushed my chin, almost absent-minded, as he studied my face. His face was unreadable. Cold, maybe. Or just... detached. Like he didn't care that I was falling apart in front of him. He opened his mouth to say something….. "Get your hand off her." The voice came from behind me. Arthur's voice. My whole body went stiff. I turned my head, following the stranger's gaze. Arthur stood at the end of the hallway, breathing hard. His shirt was buttoned wrong. His hair was still a mess. He looked like he'd thrown himself together in ten seconds and ran after me. His eyes locked on the stranger's hand still holding my chin. And his face twisted. Angry. Possessive. Like he had any right to look at me like that. "I said get your hand off her," Arthur repeated, his voice low and strong. The stranger didn't move. He didn't even blink. He just kept looking at Arthur with those cold green eyes, his thumb still resting against my jaw. And then, slowly…so slowly it felt deliberate…he smiled. Not a nice smile. A dangerous one. "Or what?"

Craving the wrong brother : His obsession 093
~YVONNE'S POV~I woke up at 5 AM, too anxious to sleep.I was going back today.I lay there for a while, staring at the ceiling, my hand resting on my flat stomach out of habit. The emptiness still shocked me sometimes.Two weeks and my body had adjusted, but my mind kept forgetting. No more baby, no more future with Arthur, no more pretending, just revenge.At 5:30, I heard movement from Liam's room and the shower running. I should have stayed in bed. I should have given him privacy.Instead, I got up, pulled on a robe, and padded down the hallway toward the kitchen for coffee.Liam's door was slightly ajar.I paused.'Don't look. Just keep walking. This is a terrible idea.' But my feet stopped moving, and my eyes...traitor that they were...looked.Through the crack in the door, I could see into his bathroom, the glass shower was frosted but not unclear. I could see his silhouett—broad shoulders, narrow waist, the movement of his arms as he washed his hair.I should leave. I should d
Craving the wrong brother : His obsession 092
~YVONNE'S POV~Day twelve was a Friday.I spent most of it going through Arthur's calendar, his meeting schedules, every email, and every file I had saved from my time as his assistant.Two weeks I had been gone. Fourteen days of absence.And he hadn't called, hadn't texted, hadn't checked to see if I was alive.I had told myself I didn't care, that I had expected it, that Arthur Klein had never given a damn about me and this just confirmed it.But it still hurt.Three years I had organized his life, made his coffee, managed his schedule, covered for his mistakes, and smiled when he belittled me.I stayed late when he demanded it, gave him everything, and he hadn't even noticed I was gone."You okay?"I looked up, Liam was standing in the doorway, two mugs of coffee in his hands.We had been careful around each other since the study conversation, polite and distant, like strangers living in the same house."Yeah. Just..." I gestured at the laptop. "Going through Arthur's meeting reque

~YVONNE'S POV~Two weeks.That's how long I had been hiding at Liam's lake house, fourteen days of watching the water, eating meals Liam made, sleeping in a bed that wasn't mine, and trying to convince myself I was healing.I wasn't healing. I was surviving, there's a difference.The cramping had stopped, the bleeding had stopped. My body had moved on like nothing had happened, like I hadn't lost a baby two weeks ago.But my mind hadn't caught up yet.I still woke up reaching for my stomach, expecting to feel the small curve that had been growing there. Still felt ghost movements—little flutters that weren't real. I still cried in the shower where Liam couldn't hear me.And Liam—Liam was trying.He made breakfast every morning, left it on the counter with a glass of orange juice and my prenatal vitamins even though there was no baby to take them for anymore. He worked from his study during the day, taking calls and video meetings while I sat in the living room pretending to read bo

~LIAM'S POV~Friday arrived too fast.I sat in my car outside the Klein estate at 6:45 PM, engine idling, staring at the house I had grown up in and hated with every fiber of my being.My phone rang, It was Aiden."You sitting outside your dad's place right now?" he asked."How'd you know?""Because you always call me before you do something stupid. And I haven't heard from you. So I figured you're about to walk into a family dinner and need someone to talk you down."Despite everything, I smiled. "When did you get so smart?""Law school. They teach reading comprehension." He paused. "Seriously though....you okay?""No.""You going in anyway?""Yeah.""Want to tell me why?""Vanessa needs to know I know what she did. And I need to see Arthur's face when I show up to his celebration dinner after everything.""That's petty.""I'm aware."Aiden sighed. "How's Yvonne?"The name made my chest tight. "Alive. Healing. Planning revenge.""Sounds healthy.""It's the only thing keeping her upri

~LIAM'S POV~She looked smaller in sleep.I stood in the doorway of her bedroom, coffee cooling in my hand, watching Yvonne curl around the bedsheet like she was afraid of letting go. She had lost weight—I could see it in the hollows of her cheeks, the sharp edge of her collarbone visible above the blanket.Four days and she was already fading.Last night's conversation played on repeat in my head. 'I want to make them pay. Myself.'The naive girl who had cried on Arthur's shoulder was gone, something harder had taken her place, something that wanted blood.'Use me, Yvonne.'I had said it without thinking. Just opened my mouth and offered her everything....my money, my resources, my connections, my rage. Offered to let her wield me like a weapon against everyone who had hurt her.Because I was in love with her.No—that was too soft, too simple.I was obsessed with her, consumed by her. She had gotten under my skin like a virus I couldn't cure and didn't want to, every breath she took
Craving the wrong brother : His obsession 088
~YVONNE POV~{Day Four:}I couldn't sleep.I tried for hours, tossing and turning, staring at the ceiling while my mind replayed everything on an endless loop.The tea. Vanessa's smile. The blood. Liam's face when he found me. The hospital. Arthur's proposal timestamp. The empty feeling in my body where something had been growing.At 2 AM, I gave up.I got out of bed, pulled on the oversized sweater, and padded downstairs in bare feet.The house was dark except for a light coming from down the hall. The study. I walked toward it quietly, stopped outside the door.Liam's voice drifted out, low and controlled."I don't care what the optics are, Kenji. I want every transaction from the last six months. Everything Arthur touched... No, I'm not waiting... Because I'm done playing by their rules."There was silence, then: "She's fine. Resting... I said she's fine... That's none of your concern." There was more silence."Just get me the files. I will handle the rest."I pushed the door open.

~YVONNE POV~The rest of the morning was excruciating.I could feel Arthur's eyes on me through the glass wall of his office, tracking my every movement like I was something he had lost and was trying to figure out how to get back. Every time I looked up, he was watching. Every time I stood to fil
