~Sara~

I step aside immediately, and she crashes into the edge of my desk, her nose smacking against the wood.

“Ouch!” she winces, clutching her nose as she stumbles back.

She straightens slowly, her face turning a blotchy shade of red.

Alex’s secretary coughs into her fist, suppressing a laugh.

“You dodged me!”

“You appeared suddenly.” I cross my arms, brows knitting into a frown. “Instinct took over.”

Her eyes narrow.

Still the same Rachel.

Pretty in the polished, expensive kind of way. Hair

  • Dealing With The Other Brother.   EPILOGUE

    One Week Later~Sara~The house is quieter than I expected it to be.Even with the celebration still echoing outside, even with laughter filling every inch of the compound. There is a kind of stillness that settles over everything now.A kind of stillness that makes everything too good to be through. I stand by the window for a moment, fingers brushing the fabric of my dress as I watch the lights outside flicker against the night. The wedding had felt like something out of a dream, something too perfect to hold in my hands for long without it breaking.And yet, I am here.Really here. Alive. Happy.A soft sound behind me makes me turn.Alex closes the door gently, as if even the noise of it might disturb something fragile. His tie is loosened now, sleeves rolled slightly at his forearms, the same man who had held my hand all day but somehow looks different now in this quiet, like everything is finally allowed to slow down.His eyes meet mine and something in my chest tightens immediat

  • Dealing With The Other Brother.   Chapter 142— A Perfect Ending?

    ~??? POV~"...Following a six-month investigation, authorities confirmed that Linda Ford had survived the shooting incident years ago and underwent extensive reconstructive surgery while operating under a false identity. Evidence presented during the trial revealed a long-term scheme targeting Sara Jane and members of the Ford family."I tighten my grip on the steering wheel as the reporter's voice crackles through the radio."While the court ruled that Sara Jane acted in self-defense during the original confrontation, prosecutors successfully argued that she concealed evidence by disposing of Linda's body and later escaped lawful custody."A brief pause follows."The jury cited her age at the time, the immediate threat to her life, and the extraordinary circumstances surrounding the case. She was sentenced to house arrest, community service, mandatory counseling, probation, and financial penalties related to obstruction of justice and unlawful escap—"I switch off the radio and push

  • Dealing With The Other Brother.   Chapter 141— One Final Dance.

    ~Sara~I wince as my eyes flicker open. A pounding ache rings through my head. My vision blurs, and everything is a hazy mess.I hear distant voices like people arguing, but it is just a distant echo. My eyes keep fluttering open and close, and in the midst of it, I see hazy figures gathered, talking like they are about to tear each other apart. I sniff slightly as I slowly start making meaning of my environment. The place smells like damp concrete and rust. Water drops rhythmically from somewhere down the corner. A dim bulb hangs directly over me, and slowly, the environment starts making sense.I turn my gaze toward the figures arguing and recognize them.Celine is yelling furiously at Jason. Khlan leans against the wall, arms crossed like he is enjoying the chaos. Jason just stands there, staring at Celine, while Mira stands behind him, arguing with her.“I fucking told you not to listen to the Black Wolf.” Celine snaps, throwing her arms wide.My mind stutters. Black Wolf?“What

  • Dealing With The Other Brother.   Chapter 140—End Em. All Of Em.

    ~Sara~I pace around the sitting room again, my feet padding softly against the floor as I circle between the couch and the window. My nails are half-broken from how often I bite them, and I can feel the sting in my fingertips every time I clench my hands.Alex said they wouldn’t be gone long, but they’ve been gone for five hours.Shit.Could something have gone wrong?I pause near the couch, trying to steady myself, when the lights flicker overhead.My body reacts before my thoughts do. I move to the window and pull the curtain aside so fast it almost tears. Relief hits me immediately when I see Alex and Boaz stepping out of the car, but it doesn’t last. It dies the second I focus properly.Alex doesn’t look like himself. He keeps running a hand through his hair like he’s trying to pull himself apart, talking rapidly to Boaz. Boaz is right beside him, gripping him, trying to steady him, but Alex looks like he’s barely holding himself together.Something is wrong.Boaz starts guiding

  • Dealing With The Other Brother.   Chapter 139— Disaster Begins.

    ~Jason~ Dad glares at me, confused. “What in God’s name is wrong with you, Jason?” he asks, jaw locked in a stiff frown. “Dad…” I glance toward the door, then back at him. “You have to run. Like… now.” He raises an eyebrow. “Run? From who?” “They… the black wolf. He wants you dead. You need to go. I’m not joking.” He scoffs. “What nonsense! Have you started drinking like your brother?” “No, Dad, I’m not lying!” I yell, running a hand over my hair frantically. “I’m telling the truth! They’re coming for you—if you don’t leave, you’re dead!” “Bullshit!” “I’m not bullshitting!” I throw my hands up in frustration. “I swear, I’m telling the truth!” He crosses his arms over his walking stick, staring me down. “Okay… so you say this is true?” I nod. “Yes! Every word!” “Then…” he leans back in his seat. “How did you know this… ‘black wolf mister’ wants me dead?” I pause. “Jason?” “Y… yes,” I stammer. “I said—how did you know?” He pushes off his seat, now looking at me suspiciou

  • Dealing With The Other Brother.   Çhapter 138—A Night Of Hard Truths.

    ~Alex~ I sit on the couch, rubbing my fingers on my forehead. Sara’s grip on her skirt tightens like she’s bracing for a storm, and Boaz… well, he’s already in full hurricane mode. “It… it’s…” Sara stutters, her breath catching. “It’s not like we wouldn’t do anything. We just need the night shifters first.” Boaz throws his arms out like the world owes him sense. “And when we get them, what happens? We gonna throw a party? Dance around the sitting room and wait for the cops to burst through the door and drag us to jail?” Sara squeezes the fabric of her skirt even harder. “Well… the night shifters are one of the most formidable security teams we can get. With them guarding us, the cops would have a hard time following our trail.” Boaz leans back, throws his head, and laughs. “You say it like we’re playing hide and seek. Yeah, sure, the night shifters will protect us. But here’s what you’re forgetting: they don’t sit around playing house. If you want them, you have to be proactive. Y

    ~SARA~“For the past few days,” I begin, “I’ve been on the news for… all the wrong reasons. Some of you might know me as the mean boss that bullies her subordinates, while others know me as the girl that threatens Jason Ford with a sex tape.”I clench hard on the podium and swallow. “There are two
