Doce años después, su canario se fue volando

"Will it work this time?" Ask my husband, Harvey Ackles.

I put my parfume bottle on the dressing table, and walked over to him. Harvey's handsome face was pale whenever we were going to have a dinner with his family. He tried three times before but always ended up being rejected. Yes, who else are we talking about besides Harvey's younger brother, Sean Ackles.

"I'm sure you can persuade Sean." I replied, fixing his tuxedo collar.

"Really? Are you sure?"

"Actually... no."

Harvey laughed briefly before sighing. "What else should I say? Sean is all grown up. He must change for the better."

I understand what Harvey meant. Sean often acts like a teenager. Whether it's partying, sex with lots of women, and things that 25-year-old men don't do. I was even confused about how Sean graduated from University, when all he knew was having fun.

Harvey just needed to persuade Sean to consider their parents' request -Anne and Roby. They wanted Sean to take over the family company. Harvey already has his own company so it is impossible to become CEO of two companies. Their only choice was Sean. But unfortunately Sean likes to make easy things difficult because he keeps on refusing.

"Speak carefully. Don't forget to give him the alcohol first." We knew Sean's temperament was terrible. At least alcohol can be quite calming.

"I'll try harder."

"Oh, they are coming."

I enthusiastically as soon as the house bell rang. Meanwhile Harvey glanced at the mirror to get rid of his nervousness. Immediately I held my husband's hand and smiled. Hopefully there will be a miracle for Sean to obey, because I can't help seeing Harvey getting more and more frustrated.

"Are you ready?" 

"You're the only one who needs to prepare, honey," He pinched my nose softly.

"Me?" I asked, confused.

"My mom will praise how beautiful you are."

My cheeks turned red and we kissed. After that I was ready to meet the three most valuable people in Harvey's life.

-----

"I hope Sean changes his mind." Said Anne, playing her fingers uncomfortably. Roby can only pat his wife's shoulder and try to give positive thoughts. As the father of Harvey and Sean, of course Roby wanted to join them. But Roby knows that Harvey can rely on whenever it comes to Sean. Sometimes Sean's harshness, only Harvey could handle it. 

"Sean must have listened to Harvey's words this time. We have to believe in Harvey." Roby said.

After I finished washing the dishes, I poured wine for them. Anne smiled, then drank the wine. She looks calmer now, it is evident that Anne started talking about Harvey-Sean's childhood. Even though I've heard this story many times, I still laugh. It's hard to belive that Sean was such a lovely person back then. 

"Fuck! You damn bastard!"

Sean shouted from upstairs at the same time an item sounded broken. Harvey came down in hurry. His face was hideous with blood on the nose and the corners of the lips. 

"What happened? Why Sean hit you?" I asked in panic. To be honest they fought a lot but never this badly.

Harvey groaned like he was in pain. "He still refuses to take over the company."

"Wait a minute. I'll ---"

"Roby and I were taking Harvey to the hospital. Please keep an eye on Sean, Angel." Anne interrupted and stopped my steps that were about to take the medicine box. The blood in my body seemed to stop working.

"No, I'm fine." Said Harvey, aware that I was just silent. Harvey knew I wasn't comfortable with Sean.

"You're hurt, Harvey! What if Sean hit your surgical stitches?!"

Yes, Harvey had been in a car accident in the past and required surgery. Since then Anne has become more concerned with all things about her eldest son. 

"I'll take care of Sean. Make sure you're all right, babe."

"Thank you for your understanding. We'll be right back." Harvey must have thought that I wanted to open up to his brother. Oh really, if there were other options besides getting close to Sean, I would have chosen that right away. Unfortunately, this is all I can do.

After they left, I froze in the front door like a fool. My legs feel heavy. I squeezed my dress with no intention of finding out what Sean was doing.

Okay. Lets try it.

The sound of my heels can be heard as I climb the stairs. I threw away the thought that Sean might hit me too. He is indeed a rude man, but I am sure he will not hurt me physically.

At first I assumed Sean was in Harvey's office, but it turned out to be in my private room with Harvey. Sean was facing the window and letting the cigarette smoke carry the night breeze. I bit my lower lip. How should I start a conversation with Sean? Or should I go down and wait for Harvey to come back? At least I knew Sean was fine.

"What do you want?"

Sean's voice made me realize that he was watching me. His pair of green eyes looked up and down on me, making me regret being here. I've never been intimidated just because of someone's gaze.  

"A-are you hurt?" I asked.

He threw the cigarette on the floor, then stepped on it. Oh, Harvey's not going to like this! Harvey hates cigarettes!

"Are you trying to kick me out and make sure I leave before your beloved husband returns?"

Sean's guess took me by surprise, even though the thing about me wanting to kick him out was completely true. He stepped forward, while I did the opposite. Sean's grin grew wider when I had no more room to get away from him. I've been trapped.

"Why are you always afraid of me, Angel?"

I pushed my saliva hard. Angel? Did he just say my name? This rarely happens. In fact, this is the first time he's called my name after I officially married Harvey two years ago.

Sean's eyes darkened, and I didn't want to be around him any longer. Unfortunately Sean grabbed my wrist first. He locked me on both sides of my body with his big hands. Our distance is getting closer. Now I can even feel his breath that smells like peppermint and cigarettes.

"You're always getting in on my business and Harvey's. You really disgust me." I know Sean hates me, but I didn't think it turned out this big. "But I have to admit, seeing you in this dress, you make me hard. I really want to fuck you in front of your husband."

Shit, what did Sean say? He touched my face, made me look up and stare at him doubtfully. I'm scared, but I like this. Like a challenge?

"I want to feel you, Angel. I'm going to make you forget how to walk."

My breath caught by his dirty words. Sean's fingers slid sensually down my thighs. Realizing this was the wrong situation, I pushed him away. Sean is my husband's younger brother! This shouldn't be happening!

When I almost made it out of the room, Sean grabbed me and slammed my back against the wall. A moment later he pulled my dress up, which made me gasp.

"You are so wet," I closed my eyes while pushing his chest. How to stop this pleasure? Stupidly, I just moaned, and it made Sean grin happily. "Say you want me the way I want you. Say it, baby girl."

I can't think straight.

My fingers squeezed his sturdy shoulders as a sign that I am enjoying this forbidden touch. In the next second, I closed my eyes and spoke without hesitation.

"I want you."
