LOGININ LOVE WITH MY ROOMMATE “Ciara, please help me bring my panties,” I called.She’s my roommate—the girl I’ve loved since freshman year. I never dared tell her. She’s a little homophobic. That doesn’t mean she can’t still fetch my panties or anything else I ask for.“Lila, open this door and take this shit from me,” she said, laughing hard. “Every time you forget to bring them inside when you go.”“Oh, but you said you don’t want to see me naked again,” I shot back as I opened the door.“Stop joking around. This school is co-ed. Those stubborn brats might barge in here and find you naked.”It’s normal for me. I grew up with four older brothers as the only girl and the last child. I’m used to it. Most times Mum had to beat me into clothes that actually covered my body.“Well, it’s not like I care,” I said, drying off and pulling on my pants. When I came out, she was already ready for class.“Ciara, what are you doing heading to school at this hour? It’s still six a.m. Not even seven ye
XANDER MY STEPBROTHER His lips were still on mine while his free hand trailed over my body.I stared at him, barely able to believe this was real. After everything—after the rejection, the bruise, the way he had looked at me like I was nothing—he was still here. Touching me. Kissing me. All those nights I had fantasized about him, and now it was actually happening. I kissed him back without wasting another second.“Xander…” I called softly, not wanting to ruin the moment.He hummed against my mouth and pulled back just enough to look at me.“Hope you won’t regret this tomorrow?” I asked quietly. I needed to hear it. I needed to know I had at least asked.He stopped completely and looked at me.“What are you trying to say?”“I know this is your first time… with a guy. I just want you to be sure.”He cupped my face with both hands, forcing me to meet his eyes.“I’m really sorry for everything I did to you since you came into this house. Don’t worry. This is what I want too.”I nodded,
XANDER MY STEPBROTHER The walk back to the house was quiet. Jace offered to come with me, but I told him I was fine. I wasn’t. Every step made the bruise more painful at the corner of my eye, a slow reminder of how violently Xander had shoved me away. Still, my friends’ voices faded behind me as I pushed open the front door.Mom and Avery were in the living room. The second they saw me, Mom’s eyes widened.“Noah! What happened to your face?” She stood up fast, stepping closer, worry etched all over her features.Avery’s mouth fell open. “Oh my gosh, that looks bad.”“It’s nothing,” I mumbled, keeping my head down and adjusting my glasses. The lie tasted bitter. “I tripped and fell at Marcus’s place. Clumsy me, you know.”Mom didn’t look convinced, but I didn’t give her time to press. I slipped past them and headed straight upstairs, ignoring Avery’s questions. “Come down and eat after freshening up," she shouted.The moment my bedroom door clicked shut and locked, I let out a long,
XANDER MY STEPBROTHER I sat at our usual corner table, poking at my lukewarm fries while trying to disappear behind my big transparent nerdy glasses. Kia and Marcus weren’t having any of it.“Come on, Noah,” Kia leaned in, her braids swinging as she grinned like a shark. “Senior year, bro. So you meant to tell me you still haven’t kissed a single girl? Not even a peck?”Jace burst out laughing, nearly choking on his soda. “Man, look at you tall, cute and still collecting virgin badges like Pokémon cards. For real, who are you saving it for? The librarian?”My cheeks burned. I forced a weak laugh and shoved another fry into my mouth. “Not everyone’s trying to set a record like you two. “Some of us have standards.”“Standards?” Kia raised an eyebrow. “Or just panic attacks at the thought of lips that aren’t attached to a manga character?”They roasted me for another five minutes, the usual routine. I played along, rolling my eyes and throwing in enough sarcastic comebacks to keep the
CLAIMED BY MY BROTHER IN--LAW Desmond rose onto his knees between my thighs and pushed his boxers down. His cock sprang free—thick, heavy, and already wet at the tip. The size of it made my stomach tighten with nerves.He saw the look on my face and immediately slowed down. Instead of moving closer, he leaned over me and brushed my hair back from my forehead, voice soft but steady.“Angela… look at me.”I met his eyes.“You’re a virgin,” he said quietly. “I need you to understand what that means before I go any further. It’s going to hurt at first. There’s no way around it. I’ll go as slow as I can, but it’s still going to burn when I push inside. There might be a little blood. That’s normal. If it becomes too much, you tell me and I stop. No questions. Do you understand?”I nodded, heart racing.“I need the words, baby girl.”“I understand,” I whispered. “I still want this. I want it to be you.”He searched my face for another long moment, then kissed me…slow and deep, like he was g
CLAIMED BY MY BROTHER IN--LAW My brother-in-law was sitting in the living room wearing nothing but a pair of tight black boxer briefs that left almost nothing to the imagination. The soft light from the lamp highlighted the hard lines of his chest and the defined muscles in his thighs. My sister had already left for her night shift. The house felt too quiet, too still. I stepped inside and tried to hide the fact that I had been crying, that my entire night had just collapsed in the most humiliating way possible.The moment I entered, he stopped whatever he had been doing on his phone and looked up.“Angela? What’s wrong?” he asked, his voice low as his eyes moved over my face.“Nothing,” I muttered, walking past him toward the hallway. The only thing on my mind that moment was to reach my room, lock the door, and fall apart in private.“I asked you a question,” he said, standing and following me. “And you’re walking away?”My breath caught in my throat. But I turned He was standing
