Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED — SATURDAY
LUCIAN’S POVEzran’s head shot up so fast he nearly headbutted my chin.“Punish me?” His eyes went comically wide, some color finally returning to his face out of sheer indignation. “Lucian, I got drugged. That is not the same as sneaking off to a party.”“You still accepted a drink from a stranger.”“I didn’t know it was drugged! That’s the whole point of drugging someone!”“Regardless. I believe a report is in order.”Ezran’s face went through several stages of horror in rapid succession. “No.”“Two thousand words is the minimum.”“Lucian, I nearly died last night.”“You didn’t nearly die, baby. You were closely monitored by a highly competent boyfriend with high self control all night.”“That’s not the point!” He shoved weakly at my chest, biting his bottom lip. “I am not writing an essay on beverage safety like I’m twelve years old.”“I never said beverage safety.”“Then what?” he looked up at me.“‘Why I Should Always Listen To Lucian Banks.’ Minimum two thousand words by Monday.”
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER NINETY NINE — THROUGH THE NIGHT UNTIL THE MORNING
LUCIAN’S POVI broke every reasonable driving law getting to that club.Ezran’s voice on the phone had been wrong in a way that turned my blood to ice—slurred, disoriented, frightened in a manner three drinks could never produce, drawing my conclusion to one thing—he was drugged.By the time I screeched to a stop outside the entrance, I was out of the car before the engine had fully cut, shoving past the line with a single look that sent the bouncer scrambling out of my way.“Ezran!” I called into the crush of bodies and flashing lights, my phone still pressed against my ear, his breathing audible but increasingly shallow on the other end.“Lucian?” His voice, when it came, sounded impossibly small. “I don’t feel good.”“I’m here already. I’m inside. Where exactly are you? Give me a description of your surroundings.”“Near... near a wall. There’s a painting beside me. A really ugly painting.”I scanned the club frantically until I spotted a garish abstract piece hung near a side corrid
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER NINETY EIGHT — SOMETHING’S WRONG
EZRAN’S POVThe club was loud, dark, and pulsing with bass by the time we arrived, Melinda somehow already on a first-name basis with the bouncer exactly as she’d promised.“Told you,” she said smugly, sailing past the velvet rope while the rest of us trailed behind.Inside, the VIP section Melinda had apparently charmed her way into overlooked the main dance floor, low tables scattered with bottles the group had already ordered before we arrived.“Truth or dare,” Rowan announced the moment we settled in, sliding a shot glass toward me. “We use the standard rules. Refuse either truth or dare and you drink.”“Absolutely not,” I said.“Absolutely yes,” Erik countered, already grinning. “So Ezran, truth or dare?”I sighed, resigning myself to my fate. “Truth.”“Boring, but fine. Is the mystery boyfriend as attractive as everyone assumes?”Heat crawled up my neck immediately. “Next question.”“That's not how this works.”“Fine.” I shrugged. “Yes. He’s so handsome that I can’t believe he’s
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER NINETY SEVEN — HANG OUT
EZRAN’S POVI choked audibly on my own spit.“Excuse me?”“You heard me.” Lucian’s lips curled into that particular smirk that meant absolutely nothing good for my composure. “How well can you hold back a moan? Because Robert’s office is close to this exact terrace, and I intend to test your restraint tonight.”“Lucian!”“What? I’m simply curious.”“We are not doing anything remotely moan-worthy on this terrace with your father’s office right there.”“Suit yourself.” He shrugged, entirely unbothered, though his hand had already found its way to my waist, thumb tracing slow, distracting circles against my hip. “We could always relocate somewhere more private.”“Somewhere private, meaning your penthouse, which is currently half an hour away and completely inaccessible given the family situation this week.”“Right.”I swatted his arm, though the laugh that escaped me betrayed how little actual annoyance I felt. He caught my wrist before I could pull away, pressing an unhurried kiss to my
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER NINETY SIX — HOLD BACK A MOAN
EZRAN’S POVThe countryside trip lasted exactly two days on the family group chat before it fell apart entirely.“Apparently there’s a work crisis,” Jeanne announced at breakfast, scrolling through her phone with a scowl. “Dad’s company is having a couple of issues with the database. He says he can’t leave the city right now, until he sees it resolved quickly.”“So the trip’s off?” I asked, frowning slightly.The trip being canceled meant Lucian and I could no longer be together as planned.“Postponed, apparently.” Jeanne sighed dramatically, dropping her phone onto the table. “Charlyn’s furious because she already booked the chef and house help.”“That’s unfortunately tragic,” I muttered under my breath.Mom glanced up from her own plate, brows furrowed slightly. “You don’t sound very disappointed, Ezran.”Geez, mom! Cut me some slack. I’m here battling with how to be around Lucian 24/7 and you’re trying to start another round of suspicion.“I'm devastated,” I said flatly. “I don’t h
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER NINETY FIVE — HOLIDAY TRIP
EZRAN’S POVResults were posted online at exactly nine in the morning, and I nearly dropped my phone twice trying to refresh the portal fast enough.“Come on, come on, come on,” I muttered, thumb hovering over the screen.The page finally loaded, and my name appeared at the top of the list, High Distinctions displayed in bold beside it. I stared at the number for a solid five seconds before letting out a loud whoop.“I aced it,” I said, mostly to myself, grinning like an idiot at my own screen. “I actually aced it.”My phone buzzed almost immediately. It was probably a text from Erik to ask about my result.[Erik: DID YOU SEE YOUR RESULTS?]Just like I expected. I grinned widely, typing very fast.[Me: Yeah. Did you see yours??][Erik: Mm-hm. High Distinctions across the board.]Well, that was the exact thing I got. I was number one on the list, the President of the Programming Club of Melbourne who was also our course mate, was number two, while Erik was number three.[Me: You’re numb

Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER FOUR — WELCOME TO THE FAMILY
Days moved faster than I thought and soon, it was weekend. I sat on my reading table, my fingers resting on the cursor of my laptop.I can't believe I've spent one week in a strange house. I was already bored to death.A thought nudged at the back of my mind and I shook it off frantically.Slowly,
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER THREE — LEARN BOUNDARIES
The table fell into silence. Mom's eyes were pleading with me, Jenna was staring at her brother and Charlyn and Robert seemed unfazed by whatever we were doing.“What the fuck did you just call me?” I asked again, rage seeping slowly through me.“A selective brat. You have any issues with that?”G
Dangerous Cravings: Sinfully Tangled With My Stepbrother CHAPTER TWO — CONFRONTATION
The wedding dragged to an end and I heaved out in relief. Dragging my already tired limbs out of the hall, I dialed my best friend’s digits via video call.“Yo, Ez.” Erik’s caramel skin glowed as his face appeared on the screen. “Happy married life to you.”The heck?“My mom got married, not me.” I
