KIERAN’S POV.

I sat on the balcony of my private lounge, enjoying the quiet night. The sky was dark and calm, and the city lights below looked like scattered stars. In my hand was a glass of champagne—cold, smooth, and strong enough to relax my mind.

My best friend, Adrian, sat across from me. He had his own drink, though he preferred whiskey.

“You look too calm for someone who just dropped a bomb in that house today,” he said, shaking his head with a tired laugh.

I smirked. “Calm is my specia

  • MARRIED TO MY EX FIANCE'S STEP BROTHER    The returning ghost

    Kieran's pov. I stared at the documents in my hands in disbelief. How the hell did Damien get any of this? No, how the hell did he even know of this?“So brother, do you want to talk?” I squeezed the documents into a ball, and stretched it out to Adrian. He pulled out a lighter, flipped it on, and set the paper on fire. I watched the paper burning on my hand, ignoring the heat and pain. I didn't let go until the fire had consumed most of it. Damien watched everything with a smug smile. “There's more where those things came from.”“Paul was too scared to face me himself?” I frowned. He scoffed, his face twisting with a mixture of disbelief and disgust. “That old prick have nothing on me.” He slowly got up, wincing a little. But the pain on his face quickly dissolve into a mischievous grin. “I let that man play his card knowing fully well that he was going to fail. Now it's my turn.” His voice dropped. “And trust me, I'm not going to fail.” “Is that why you killed Tami?” Adrian

  • MARRIED TO MY EX FIANCE'S STEP BROTHER    Twelve months of chaos.

    Kieran's pov. The ride back to the mansion was one of the longest I've ever had. Literally the longest. Michelle sat quietly, beside me, her eyes fixed on the window. Last night felt like a stab. While I was planning to seal our relationship, she was planning to leave. Life's a bitch, isn't it?I don't resent her — even though she made me fucking soft. She had a valid reason to leave. My world wasn't exactly the right place for her, and if I actually care for her the way I said I did, I'll let her go. Fuck. This was all just messed up. I can't believe I'm actually letting her go. She was the first person I'd ever wanted to hold on to, and yet somehow she was the only one I actually cared about to let go. How confusing was that. I looked at her, my fingers wrapping around the steering wheel like it had personally offended me. This was all my fault. I told myself. I never actually saw anything wrong with my dysfunctional life until she came into my life, and now that life has co

  • MARRIED TO MY EX FIANCE'S STEP BROTHER    The devil learned to love.

    Michelle's pov. Kieran's face remained still. No expression. Nothing. I almost felt stupid for making it sound like it was some big deal. I forced a tight smile, and turned to walk around him. Suddenly, his hand grabbed mine, his grip hard enough to break my bones if I move too much. “You're hurting me, Kieran,” I winched, look down at his hand. “Let go of me.” He pulled me back to my former spot, expression calm, but eyes burning with something that looked like rage. Looked like. “What the hell do you mean?” “The contract is ending tomorrow,” I repeated, trying to keep my voice steady — which I failed badly.He didn't say anything. I groaned loudly, trying to free myself from his grip. My strength couldn't actually do much, but it was enough to remind him that he was holding a fragile human not a stone. “The contract was one year,” I continued. “And it's already a year. So I'm leaving.” “I don't remember having such conversation,” he frowned. “It's written on paper,” I said

  • MARRIED TO MY EX FIANCE'S STEP BROTHER    Tomorrow, I leave.

    Michelle's POV.Kieran and Adrian were still not back from their walk. I kept looking at the direction they left in, waiting impatiently for their return. They literally left me to my mortal enemy with no form of self protection. Lana sat besides me, scrolling through her phone like someone who had no care in the world. My eyes slowly moved to the bandage wrapped around her head. “How are you feeling?” I asked finally.She looked up. “Better. Each day gets a little easier.”I nodded slowly. “Did you get a better look at who hit you?”She shook her head. “No. It was too fast.” She paused. “But I heard Kieran and Adrian talking about it. They seem to know who it was.” Figures. Kieran has more enemies than a rabbit. Which is enough reason to get out of his world before I get swallowed whole. She tilted her head slightly. “How are you feeling?”I looked at her. “Don't do that.” “Do what?” “Act like you care.” I kept my voice flat. "We both know you don't, so let's not waste each o

  • MARRIED TO MY EX FIANCE'S STEP BROTHER    Claiming what's mine

    Kieran's POV. We came back empty handed. Lana walked beside me, unbothered, like the lack of prey was a personal choice and not a complete failure. I didn't say anything. Neither did she. We had spent the better part of an hour walking in silence, and at some point the silence stopped being uncomfortable and just became the thing we were doing. Adrian and Michelle were already back when we got to the clearing. Adrian took one look at us. Then at our hands. Then back at our faces. “Nothing.” It wasn't a question. “Nothing,” I confirmed. He looked at the sky like he was thanking God personally. “I cannot believe this. The great Kieran Castellan came back with absolutely nothing.” “You also came back with nothing.” “That's different.” “How?” “Because it's normal for me to lose to you,” he said, pressing a hand to his chest like this was deeply personal. “It is not normal for you to lose to you. Do you understand the difference? The natural order has been disrupted.” “Yeah,

  • MARRIED TO MY EX FIANCE'S STEP BROTHER    Letting him go.

    Michelle's pov. I walked quietly behind Adrian, my steps light as a feather. He hasn't said anything yet, but I knew he had a lot to say to me considering the fact that my stupidity almost cost him his life. Why would Kieran leave me with him? No, I think the real question is why would Kieran choose Lana over me?I knew I screwed up. I knew I couldn't hunt. But that doesn't mean he should throw me under the bus. I knew he was a man who loved to win, but I never knew he would be this petty. I stared at the back of Adrian, my heart hammering with each step he took. Ever since I got a glimpse into this man's life, being around him had never felt safe. Something about him put my nerves on edge — like standing too close to a fire and knowing, without question, that it could burn you.He turned to me, draping the gun at the back of his neck, hands hooked on both sides. “Thank you for dragging Kieran out. I haven't been able to convince him to do a thing in... Like forever.”I forced a t

  • MARRIED TO MY EX FIANCE'S STEP BROTHER    Just a dumb kiss.

    MICHELE'S POV. Kieran didn't let go even after the cameraman told us that he had taken the shot. And as stupid as I was, I deepened the kiss. Part of me wanted to let go, but my mouth was just curious. I wanted this so bad. Finally, he lets go, and regret crashes over me instantly. I quickly loo

    KIERAN'S POV.I only agreed to this public figure nonsense cause I wanted to focus freely on chasing the lead. I don't need proof or a seer to tell me that Paul had placed someone somewhere to give him a report about my activities in Paris. After Tami's arrest, I couldn't help but notice how extra

    Michelle’s POV. “You had sex with Kieran!” Lana shouted, her mouth wide open in shock. I grabbed her wrist and hissed, “Are you mad? Keep your voice down.”“You had sex with Kieran,” she whispered, but her voice was still loud. “Keep…” She cut me off. “Like, you had sex with Kieran… Kieran Cast

    Michelle’s POV. Damien and I sat quietly in the café shop near the club. I kept gulping down the bottle of water to avoid the awkward tension growing between us. I tried to ditch him, but he insisted on staying till I was sober enough to move alone. “Why are you drinking yourself like that?” he
