WARNING: CONTAINS EXPLICIT SCENES. READ WITH CAUTION. MATURE CONTENT. Claire met Sebastian on her wedding day. He is the older brother of her husband-to-be. Fate took its time to play with her when she felt a very huge attraction to the man on the very same day she was bound to be someone else’s wife. From the intense look he gives her to the way his lips curved up into a smirk, she can’t help but feel foreign sensations running down her body. Sensations she’s not allowed to feel for someone who’s going to be a family soon. Sebastian knew he needs saving when he felt a very strong urge to pull the bride and lean her on the altar and take her there senselessly. With her strawberry blonde hair curled to the side of her shoulder exposing her delicately creamy-white skin, thoughts of running his tongue there invaded his mind. Damn him to hell for thinking thoughts like that to the woman his brother was about to marry. But the heavens must be in his favor when things around weren’t what he expected it to be. This time he was determined to steal her from his brother, and no one can stop him. Not even fate.
View MoreClaire’sI let out a nervous sigh and gripped the steering wheel a bit too tightly. Today’s my first day back at the shop since that scandal video of Niu came out. Everything feels unfamiliar now—after all, I’ve been gone for almost a month. It was weird being out again after all that time. Sebastian wanted to put security outside the shop, but I refused. That would’ve just made things more obvious.I’d already called Kate earlier, and she said there weren’t any reporters lurking outside. I felt a little relieved when she told me that.Even though I’ve been away for almost a month, the news is still hot. And now that our divorce is officially public, it’s stirred up even more gossip. People are being noisier online with their comments. Thankfully, no paparazzi showed up today.I parked my car just a short distance from the shop. I grabbed a huge pair of sunglasses and put them on. I winced a little when I saw myself in the mirror—I looked ridiculous. These sunglasses practically cover
Sebastian’s POVI watched Claire as her small frame stepped out the door. When she shut it behind her, I turned and walked toward the window. I didn’t say a word—I was waiting for Niu to speak first. I wanted to hear from him what they talked about.“She told me about you two.”It wasn’t a question or an accusation. It was a statement. Niu already knew about it, but Claire had no idea that he did. So she told him about what happened between us.My heart started to pound a little harder.I took out a pack of cigarettes from my pocket, placed one between my lips, and lit it. Maybe this would help me calm my nerves. I didn’t know why, but something in me felt unsettled. My heart was beating all over the place.Maybe it was the excitement that Claire would soon be free, or maybe because what we had was never supposed to happen in the first place. Maybe it was guilt. Or the fact that I fell for her even though I knew it was a mistake.“What did you say to her? Did you tell her anything?” I
Claire’s POV“What the f*ck?!”Sebastian’s voice exploded through the room like thunder, and I swear the walls shook.My head snapped toward the door where his voice came from. My hand flew to my chest — my heart was racing like crazy. I felt like I just got caught doing something insanely inappropriate.I nearly jumped when I saw Sebastian standing in the doorway, looking absolutely furious — like he was about to devour both Niu and me whole. His brows were furrowed, his whole expression radiating anger.From where he stood, the look he gave us felt like we had just committed the ultimate betrayal. He was accusing us with his eyes.Then it hit me — how we must’ve looked.My arms were around Niu’s shoulders, and his were around my waist. My lips were even pressed against his cheek.To anyone walking in, we probably looked like a couple.Which, well... we kinda were. Minutes ago.I slowly pulled away from Niu, putting a little space between us.I cleared my throat, trying to break the
Claire's“F*ck! That was so gay,” Niu muttered under his breath.I had to stifle my laughter when he swore. He pulled away from our hug and wiped his cheeks. His face was flushed, and he turned even redder when he glanced at me and realized I was staring at him. He quickly looked away, which only made me laugh harder. He was clearly embarrassed that he’d cried.Honestly, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with a man crying—especially when it’s because of his own mistakes. If anything, it makes him look even more human, more real. Vulnerability like that? That’s strength, not weakness.But today, I chose to tease him. I thought we needed that, just to lighten the mood.“Yeah, super gay, Niu,” I teased, laughing. “You would’ve gone viral if someone had caught that on video. Too bad I didn’t film it.”He just shook his head. His crying had stopped, and his usual cocky demeanor was back. That was the Niu everyone knew—a mix of rugged charm and nice guy vibes.He let out a deep sigh.“Th
Claire’sThey say people come into our lives to teach us lessons. Some hurt us in ways we never thought they would. Some leave, while others stay — and those are the ones who bring true happiness to our hearts.There are moments in life that are completely out of our control. Sometimes they turn out beautifully, but most of the time, they don’t.They also say that love is a journey. Along the way, you learn that love is the most beautiful thing that can happen to a person… and also the most painful.In my case, I fell for someone I was never supposed to love. Someone forbidden right from the start. Someone I never should’ve gotten involved with — because I’m married to his brother.I parked the car outside the house — the same house Niu and I have been living in for more than two years since we got married. It was a gift from his parents. Living here wasn’t bad. No bad memories, really. But for me, it always felt... empty.Niu is a good man. He respected me more than he ever pursued h
Claire’sI gently removed his arms that were wrapped around me and turned to face him. He looked exhausted but somehow still managed to look so incredibly handsome. I slipped my arms around his neck and tilted my head to get a better look at him.I stroked the rough edge of his jaw, the stubble already growing in. Sebastian was one of the most attractive men I’d ever known, and yet here he was—wanting me. With all the beautiful women he could have, all the easy choices he could make, he chose me. A woman tangled in family messes, still technically married.I stood on my toes and gave him a quick kiss on his lips, still damp from the shower. His lips—God, the way they took over mine every time—made me chuckle just thinking about it.He raised a brow when he saw me giggling. His thick eyebrows, deep eyes, and long lashes made him look like a dream. There were plenty of good-looking men out there, but Sebastian? He saw through me. Every time he looked into my eyes, it was like he could r
