Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER FIFTY SIX — A BEAUTIFUL GIFT
I stared at him in shock. He has feelings for me? How?“I… don't understand, Rowan. I'm sorry.”“I understand your confusion, Ezran.” he said softly. “I understand your worries. I barely even pass as a friend, so this is surprising. But the truth is, I've always liked you from the first instance I met you. I’m intrigued by you, I’m amazed by your smartness and ingenuity. I love it when you smile or you’re shy. I—”“Stop it, Rowan.” I cut in.He stared at me in confusion. “Why? You don’t like me?”I exhaled, brushing my hand through my hair as I struggled to keep a straight face. “I like you, but not that way. I see you as a friend, a pal, a partner, not someone I can be in a relationship with. Besides, you’re not even gay, so how did you fall for me?”“I just like you very much.” he mumbled.“Exactly. It’s not love. By the time I give you a chance and we start dating, you’ll start finding faults and I’ll get bored. Eventually, we will have to call it off and ruin our friendship.”“E
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER FIFTY FIVE — I HAVE FEELINGS FOR YOU
A date? I thought I didn't hear properly until he repeated himself.“May I ask you out on a date tomorrow?”I stared at Erik for support, but he didn't say a word.“Uh… Can I think about this?”He sighed despondently. “Okay.”“Hey, don't sound like that.” I mumbled, biting my lip. “I’ll message first thing in the morning to give you my response.”“Okay. I’ll be expecting it.”The call disconnected and I turned to Erik in rage. “Dude, I asked you for help!”“Well, you can just decline him tomorrow morning, right?” Erik answered nonchalantly.I rolled my eyes. “I’m un-bestfriending you now.”“Don’t push your luck, kiddo.”I almost flew at him in rage. Erik was older by a month and he never stopped using it to his advantage.“Nice play, Erik Anderson.”He burst into laughter, hugging me tight. “I love you, Ezran Banks.”“Ewww, that’s gross.” I said, scrunching up my nose in disgust.….The next morning arrived too quickly and I almost cried in frustration.Erik refused to return to his
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER FIFTY FOUR — ASKING ME OUT
I stifled for a split second, stuttering almost immediately.“What… I don’t… fuck, Jeanne!”She burst into an endless spree of laughter, shaking her head in disbelief.“Come on, there’s nothing going on between Lucian and I. We just decided to call a truce.”“Truce? I don't buy that.” I shrugged. “Well, if you didn’t, what do you think?”“I think you’re both up to something. You can’t just be besties in eleven days.”“We aren’t besties, duh.”“Whatever!” she cut in. “Did anything outside Lucian happen?”I turned to Erik who was already munching on a bowl of chips.“What the hell, man! Where did you get those from?” “It was already on the table. Maybe the maids dropped it for someone and that particular someone forgot about it. I'm simply doing justice to it.”I shook my head slowly. Erik was one hell of a crazy person.“Back to my question, Ezran,” Jeanne said.“Nothing happened, I guess.”“Don’t guess. Think and recall something.”“Wait!” Erik said, dropping the bowl on the table.
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER FIFTY THREE — WHAT'S YOUR DEAL WITH MY BROTHER?
EZRAN'S POV.I stared at Lucian briefly, shock evident in my eyes.He was proud of me? Lucian Banks said he was proud of me and then patted me on the head like a child?I should have revolted at the action but instead, I was feeling butterflies in my stomach.“Hmm,” I cleared my throat and started walking away. “Let’s go home.”He nodded slightly, walking behind me.….The drive back home was quiet. Silence seeped in from every corner of the car, making me uncomfortable.Lucian was right—I was better off talking.“Geez!” I didn’t realize when I said that aloud. Lucian glanced at me briefly.“Any problem?”“No,” I quickly said. “Nothing is wrong.”He nodded and returned his eyes to the steering.Geez! That was fucking embarrassing.….Immediately the car pulled up in the garage, I came out of it, told Lucian a quick thank you and sprinted off into the house.“Where are you running off to, Ezran?” a feminine voice called from behind me and I turned slowly, smiling awkwardly.Jeanne was
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER FIFTY TWO — I'M PROUD OF YOU
I stared at the phone for half a second, then at Lucian, who was already watching me. My grip tightened slightly around the device before I brought it back to my ear.“Melinda?”Silence stretched for a moment.“…Ezran?” Her voice was too weak.My brows pulled together immediately. “Yeah. What’s wrong?”There was metallic noise and shouting in the background. “I…” her voice broke. “I think… there’s been an accident—”My heart dropped.“What?” I straightened fully, my chair scraping loudly against the floor. “Melinda, what do you mean accident? Where are you?”“I’m at…” her breath hitched. “I don’t even know, I… there was a car—”The line crackled and my heart skipped even more.“Melinda!”“I’m bleeding,” she whispered.Everything in me went cold.“Stay on the line,” I said quickly, already moving. “Don’t hang up. Can you hear me? Melinda, answer me.”“I’m here…”Her voice was fading very fast. Shit. “Where are you?” I demanded, grabbing my jacket without even realizing it. “Look arou
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER FIFTY ONE — MELINDA’S SUDDEN CALL
EZRAN’S POVI woke up slowly, numbness and tiredness registering in my body, like my body had returned before my mind did. I frowned slightly, eyes still closed as I shifted under the sheets.For a second, I just lay there, then the events of last night came rushing back. My eyes snapped open.I stared up at the ceiling, unmoving, my heart slamming against my ribs.“Do you want me to stop?”My fingers twitched slightly against the sheets.“Don’t stop, Lucian.”I exhaled slowly, dragging a hand over my face.What the hell was that? No, what the hell did I say to Lucian? Worse, he just smiled and asked me to go to bed.Geez… I'm losing my mind.I turned my head lazily, squinting at the clock on the bedside table. 11:08 AM.“Shit.” I cussed under my breath and sat up abruptly, the blanket slipping off my body as reality crashed in—I had morning lectures by 9:00 AM and had already missed them.Grabbing my phone quickly, I scrolled through the missed notifications, calls and messages, win

LUCIAN’S POVThe door slammed.I remained exactly where I was. For several seconds, the room stayed silent. The antiseptic pad was still in my hand.Ezran had run out of the study as if someone was chasing him. Actually, as if I chased him out. I looked down at the chair he had been sitting in a m

I let out a lazy laugh. “Wow. Didn’t know you cared.”“I don’t.”“Liar.”Lucian ignored me and kept walking. The stairs felt longer than usual. My head throbbed faintly, each step making the world sway a little more. By the time we reached my room, I was too tired to fight him.Lucian pushed the do

The room went still. Not gradually, instantly.The music was still blasting from the speakers, bodies were still moving across the dance floor, glasses still clinked, but the space around us suddenly felt different — because Lucian Banks had just entered the room.The three idiots in front of me tur
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER SEVEN — WHAT THE HELL?
Avoiding Lucian became my new full-time hobby.Unfortunately, the Banks mansion was too large for comfort but somehow still too small to escape him.By the time I returned from school that afternoon, the house had settled into its usual quiet luxury. The staff moved like ghosts, the marble floors re
