The grill is hissing, the sun is beating down on the patio, and I am seconds away from losing my mind if the staff doesn't move faster. I turn toward the kitchen door, smoothing my hair back with one hand while the other rests on my hip.

"Hurry up with those buffalo wings and the buns!" I bark at o

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 197

    "Owen... you need to cut yourself some slack," she says gently, reaching up to lightly brush her thumb against my cheekbone. "You don't have to be the invincible counselor right now. You just lost your mom, honey. I know how much she meant to you. I know how much you loved her, and I know how hard y

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 196

    I watch Sydney walk away from me, her spine perfectly straight, her head held high like a queen marching out of a ruined kingdom. Her words—sharp, icy, and dripping with disgust that makes my skin crawl—still echo in the quiet space of the dining room. "While you're busy playing love and playing h

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 195

    My heart drops into my shoes, a sickening wave of nausea swirling in my stomach. He sharply pulls away after a beat, his hands coming up to grip her shoulders, his face a mix of shock and discomfort. "Camille, what are you doing here? How did you even get past the gates?" "Oh, Owen, I came the sec

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 194

    I lean in across the dark wood, my jaw tight, waiting for the genius to drop some mind-blowing corporate strategy. Owen slides his glass entirely out of the way, his eyes tracking mine with a sudden, sharp intensity. "The first thing we need to do," he says, leaning his forearms on the table, "is p

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 193

    I don't wait to hear another word. A blinding, white-hot rush of pure adrenaline and rage explodes in my chest. Before I even realize what I’m doing, my arm whips forward. I throw my phone across the bedroom with every ounce of strength I have left. It hits the far drywall with a sickening smack,

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 192

    I sit on the edge of the mattress, the silence of my locked bedroom pressing in from all sides. My scalp still burns from where I was aggressively pulling at the tangles earlier, but I barely care. I slowly run a hand through my hair, letting out a long breath that shudders against my teeth. The r

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 29

    A wave of pure relief washes over me, so strong I feel dizzy. "Thank you. Oh, thank you—" "But," he interrupts, holding up a hand. "There will be clauses. I do not work for free, and as you’ve already admitted, even if you worked for the next three years, you couldn't afford my standard hourly rate

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 28

    "That was stupid," Owen interrupts, his voice flat. I pause, the bluntness of his critique catching me off guard. I look at him, seeing the lack of pity in his gaze. He’s right. It was probably the most stupid thing I've ever done. I nod, agreeing with the man who is currently my only hope. "It wa

    The air conditioning in Owen’s suite is hummed at a perfectly cool temperature, but I can feel a single, traitorous drop of sweat gliding slowly down the curve of my spine. My skin feels hyper-sensitive, prickling under the weight of his gaze. I try to speak, to lay out everything I thought I woul

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 25

    "You have to go to him, Syd. You have to talk to Owen Kingston today and try to get him to back you up. After you just bolted away the other day, he didn't appreciate the waste of time and thought you weren't even ready for the case. You have to prove otherwise." I wipe a stray tear that’s managed
