Breaking Cameras

last update Last Updated: 2025-12-05 23:04:31
Veronica's POV:

Max frowned, fixing his piercing blue eyes on the reporter who had been shouting at him.

“So, you want to file a lawsuit against me?” he growled, his voice low and dangerous. “Fine. But be ready to face the consequences.”

Theo immediately stepped in. Max, enough. Don’t argue with them. They are just trying to provoke you,” he warned, glancing between his brother and the reporters. He was trying to defuse the situation before it spiraled further into something more serious.

But the reporter wasn’t done. Straightening his tie, he turned to his camera-person with a smug grin. “Record this,” he said. “The world should see what kind of dynamics these Ashford brothers really have.”

That was the final spark.

Before Theo could stop him, Max strode forward, grabbed the camera-person's equipment, and slammed it onto the pavement with a single, powerful motion. The camera shattered, pieces scattering across the driveway... and the moment, ironically, was got caught by another lens

  • Desired by the Billionaire Brothers   The Day Everything Changed

    Veronica's POV:Trigger Warning: This chapter discusses past childhood trauma, family conflict, and loss. Please read with care."Until I was five years old, I was the apple of my father's eye.""He used to lift me onto his shoulders, carry me through the world like I was something precious. I remember how he would smile at me—like I was the best thing that had ever happened to him. Like I hung the moon and stars. I was his world, his princess, and his everything.""And then my baby brother was born. At first, I was excited. Thrilled, even. I thought I was getting a friend, a companion, someone to protect and love and teach all the things I knew. But slowly, things began to change. The shift with my father was so gradual that I didn't notice it at first—a glance that lasted a second less, a hug that ended a moment too soon.""It was like I became invisible to my father! I tried harder to get noticed. I talked more. I helped more. I behaved better. But nothing worked.""That absence ca

  • Desired by the Billionaire Brothers   A secret buried for years

    Veronica's POV:"Veronica... Veronica... look at me."Max's voice revived me from the trance I was in. I blinked, feeling disoriented, the sound of waves suddenly louder, and closer.Cold water lapped against my neck.My breath hitched as I realized where I was. I was standing in the ocean, the water rising up to my throat, the shore far behind me. Too far from where I was. The sand beneath my feet felt unstable, shifting with each wave. My heart started pounding violently, reality crashing back into my consciousness like ice water.How did I come this far? When did I walk into the water?Before panic could fully take hold, strong arms wrapped around me from behind. In one swift motion, Max lifted me up. I barely had the time to gasp before he was carrying me back toward the shore.I dropped forward onto all fours, coughing violently, salt water spilling from my lungs... water I hadn't even realized I'd swallowed. My chest burned as I struggled to breathe, each inhale feeling like san

  • Desired by the Billionaire Brothers   I always reach the edge

    Veronica's POV:'Love is not what you do... Love is what you are... Love never tests you... it embraces you...' I swear that I must have heard this quote somewhere on Instagram a while ago... now I totally understand the meaning of it.I dropped my phone onto the mat beside me and started walking toward the waves, my steps unsteady, dizziness washing over me as a memory from my past rose uninvited in my mind.Chase was standing across from me, fury blazing in his eyes. On the table beside me lay a neatly folded stack of laundry.“Do you have any idea what you just did?” he barked.I stared at him, stunned by his sudden anger. All I had done was wash his clothes and iron them—just like I always did. Usually, he barely noticed my effort. But I believed that, deep down, he felt loved because of my hard work. That belief had always kept me going.But this time, he was furious.“Look at this,” he snapped, holding up his limited-edition Rolex.My heart dropped. It was ruined. God… I must no

  • Desired by the Billionaire Brothers   Sabotaged

    Veronica's POV:I really didn't want to be separated from Theo's arms. I wanted to hear more of his Eastern philosophy knowledge, and lose myself again in the yogic lovemaking he'd shown me... but he'd had to leave when a client called."Duty before pleasure," he'd said with that apologetic smile that made my chest ache.Now it was twilight, and I was stretched out on a yoga mat on the beach, phone in hand, earbuds tucked in my ears playing some moody romantic playlist. In front of me, the waves rolled in with their eternal rhythm, and the vibe was pure and blissful.Just a while ago, I'd experienced something blissful with Theo... his hands, his words, the way he'd made me feel both worshiped and grounded. Now I was vibing in a different way, letting the ocean breeze cool my sun-warmed skin while the last rays of sunlight painted the sky in shades of coral and lavender.Despite that, my traitorous eyes drifted across the beach and immediately landed on Max. Of course, they did.He w

  • Desired by the Billionaire Brothers   Ultimate pleasure

    Veronica's POV:I assumed that Theo was done... when I felt his shudder, but even after that he began to move again, slow and deliberate... as if he hadn't just poured everything into me.How was he even doing this? Most men would collapse after that kind of release... but Theo was building me up again from the start, all while his green eyes locked on mine, dark with hunger, still was love in the way he looked at me. I clung to his shoulders, nails digging into the firm muscles there, feeling the heat of his skin under my palms.The desk edge was biting on me, but I barely noticed; all I could focus on was the way he filled me over and over, stretching me anew each time he bottomed out.Sweat beaded on his forehead, and was trickling down his temple... but his breathing stayed even. He almost looked like he was meditating... as if this 'love-making' was just another form of yoga for him.Twenty minutes?! It had to be more than that by now... but he showed no signs of tiring down. His

  • Desired by the Billionaire Brothers   Long Cherished desire

    Veronica's POV:“We’re going global…” I laughed breathlessly, staring at Theo like I still couldn’t quite believe it.“Our startup is going to start churning millions,” Theo smiled with quiet certainty. “For sure.”That did it!I laughed again... harder this time... so much that my sides started to ache. It wasn’t just happiness... it was the release of the seven days of fear, exhaustion, and self-doubt poured out of me all at once. My father was finally going to see me. Really see me. What I achieved now wasn't a favor, or a marriage alliance, or borrowed success. This was all my intelligence... and hard work.And Chase? He would be pained to see me this successful... and that would give me extra fulfillment. Probably, my father himself would kick him out.The thought made my laughter bubble up again, making me feel lighter like a feather.Then I turned to Theo, and suddenly I felt an overwhelming amount of gratitude. Whatever I am today, was because of his compassion.“You know,” I
