Landon’s POV

The night had dragged on so long it barely felt like night anymore. It was that dead, empty hour right before dawn when even the crickets shut the hell up and the world felt like it was holding its breath.

Tyler and I were crouched behind a line of thick bushes out in the middle of nowhere, watching Malcolm Reeves’ men smoke and wander around like restless guard dogs. We'd been tracking this asshole since sunset. And of course, he refused to go home.

The bastard had apparently decided he wanted to take a fucking scenic tour of every inch of this county, with a dozen armed idiots trailing behind him making it impossible for us to nab him.

"Anything?" Tyler whispered,trying to peep through the binoculars.

I lowered the binoculars, my shoulders screaming from hours of holding the same tense position. "No. They’re just standing around. Smoking, talking. Same as they were twenty fucking minutes ago."

He shifted impatiently, the dry leaves crunching under his boot. "Jesus Chr

  • FALLING FOR THE WRONG BROTHER.    Chapter 64

    Kasey’s POV I curled up tighter in the bed, the sheets twisting around my legs like they were trying to hold me together. But nothing could. The sobs ripped out of me, shaking my whole body until my teeth chattered. Tears soaked the pillow, pooling under my cheek. I couldn't stop them. Wouldn't stop them even if I tried.How could he do this to me? The man who'd kissed me like I was his last breath, who'd touched me like he couldn't get enough. I could wrap my head around him putting my name up for that marriage deal with the Falcone family. Tyler had explained it clear enough—club politics, alliances, keeping the peace. It made a twisted kind of sense in our messed-up world. But the rest? The lies? That gutted me.Why had he fed me that bullshit about teaching me how to make Leo fall for me? He knew Leo had feelings for me. So why did he offer to give me the lessons? Was it all just so he could get me into bed? Just to claim all my firsts; my first real kiss and my first time? He'd

  • FALLING FOR THE WRONG BROTHER.    Chapter 63

    Landon’s POVI didn’t know how long I’d been standing outside after Kasey ran. Minutes. Hours. Long enough for the sky to bruise from blue to that dull, dirty purple that came before night.I stayed where I was because if I went back inside, everything that had happened in the last three days would become real. The fight with Tyler. The vote. The looks from my men. The fucking disappointment from my old man. The disgust in my mother’s eyes. All of it.I could still see the way her shoulders had hitched with those silent sobs as she turned. The desperate scramble of her boots on the gravel as she ran. I’d watched until she was just a blur, then a shadow, then nothing.I’d done that. Every fucking tear was on me. I’d aimed for the heart and nailed it. I wanted her to hate me. Needed her to. If hatred was the fuel that got her the hell away from me, then I’d gladly be the villain. She was supposed to marry some rich doctor, live in a big house mansion with a green lawn, have kids who n

    Wow. So much for a warm welcome.I opened my mouth, ready to snap back, ready to tell him exactly how thoroughly he’d ruined everything; my plans, my sleep, my sense of direction, my heart. A dozen sharp retorts crowded my tongue.None of them came out.My gaze snagged on the white bandage wrapped around his ear instead. It looked so wrong on him. Landon was supposed to be indestructible. Seeing proof that he wasn’t made my chest ache in a weird way. Why did I even care?He lied to me. Sold me out to the Antonellis like I was nothing. I should’ve been glad he’d fallen. I should’ve felt vindicated. So why did it still hurt for him?"I heard…" My voice came out thin and frayed. I cleared my throat and tried again. "I heard you got shot."A muscle ticked in his jaw. "Yeah. I got shot. If you’re here to see whether I’m still alive, you’re wasting your time. I am. Now get lost."He started to close the door.My hand shot out without thinking, slapping against the wood to stop it. "Wait."

    "You, obviously," Tess said softly."And his brother," Maeve added. "Leo isn’t speaking to him. At all. And then there’s Tyler.""Tyler?" Did they fight? I mean, they had to seeing that Tyler knew about us now. Were the bruises on his knuckles from them fighting? Oh, God. What had I done?"Yeah. Word is Tyler’s done with him too. He cut him off completely. Reaper’s down his best friend." Maeve shook her head. "But the big one is the club. The vote happened this morning.""What vote?""To confirm him as the heir. The future president of the Club." She let out a low whistle. "It wasn’t even close. Ninety percent voted against him. They stripped him the title. He’s out." What? How could that even happen? Landon was the most hardworking member of the club. He’d bled for it, shown up every time, done everything right. He deserved to be the future president.So why would almost everyone vote against him?The question clawed at my chest and no matter how I turned it over in my mind, none of

    I froze and looked away, fixing my gaze on the window. The sky outside was dull with clouds that looked like they might never break. It felt fitting somehow, like the world had decided to match the weight sitting in my chest."I know what happened between you," he said after a while.My shoulders tightened. What was I even supposed to say? Congratulations you found out I slept with your best friend? Or maybe, Sorry, I slept with your best friend? Neither felt like the right words. Hell, there were no right words."I failed you," he went on. "I let my best friend take advantage of you right under my nose.""He didn’t—" The words flew out of me on instinct before I could stop them. "It was consensual, Tyler. He might have lied to me, but he didn’t force me to do anything. I made the decisions to do whatever we did myself.""He took advantage," Tyler said gently. "He was the adult in the situation. He was supposed to know better.""I’m also an adult," I muttered, hating how small my voic

  • FALLING FOR THE WRONG BROTHER.    Chapter 59

    Kasey’s POV I had been lying on my bed for three days straight. Seventy-two hours of staring at the same pattern in the ceiling, the same fading poster on my wall, the same door that kept opening and closing with people who didn’t know what to do with me.Tyler had been sitting in the chair near my bed for a while now but hadn't said a word to me. This was the first time he’d come into my room since everything fell apart, and that alone told me how bad things really were.He finally stood up and stepped closer. "Move over," he said quietly. "You’re hogging the whole bed."I didn’t budge. I shifted my shoulder just enough to let him know I heard him, then kept scrolling on my phone.He didn’t go away. A heavy sigh gusted over me. "Fine. We’ll do this the hard way."A hand hooked under my shoulder and rolled me onto my back. I glared up at him. His face was drawn and there were shadows under his eyes. He looked older. He looked like shit."What do you want?""Thirty minutes," he said
