The wood of the bedroom door is cold against my forehead as I lean into it, my knuckles raw from two days of desperate knocking. It’s been forty-eight hours since I dragged Sydney back here—forty-eight hours since she locked herself in and effectively vanished from the world.

  • 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 35

    I hold my breath, my fingers itching to grab my script. "The role of the male lead," he announces, "goes to Marcus Thorne." A tall, rugged man a few rows down nods as the room claps. "The role of the rival, the second female lead," Nicholas continues, his eyes flicking to Lydia, "goes to Lydia Em

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 34

    I grip the steering wheel of my car, my knuckles white but my heart lighter than it’s been in years. The drive to the studio this morning feels like a victory lap. For three years, I abandoned my career. Three years, I opted to live behind the scenes. But in a painfully amazing twist of fate, I've

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 33

    Out of habit, I lean in. I close my eyes and take a deep breath, expecting the usual floral scent of roses or lilies. Instead, a wave of nostalgia hits me. My heart stutters. My eyes fly open, and suddenly, I’m not standing in a mint-green manor. I’m back in that hospital room, feeling the bandage

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 32

    The iron gates of Owen's estate swing open, revealing a driveway that can comfortably sit my apartment complex.
