The first flash hit the windshield before Damian had even turned off the engine, and the second one came so quickly that I instinctively turned toward the window.

There were photographers everywhere. They crowded the pavement outside the house, cameras raised, waiting for exactly what I had been trying to avoid. My stomach tightened as I looked toward the front door, wondering how they had gotten there so quickly. Then the door flew open, and Ryan came striding outside as though he had been wai

  • Married To My Enemy’s Brother    Chapter 14: Back to the House

    Sophia stood in the bedroom doorway, and the sight of her wearing nothing but the silk robe I had once bought for myself made something inside me twist, not with jealousy, but with the quiet disgust of seeing the final proof of how completely Ryan had desecrated everything we had built together. Her hair was loose around her shoulders, her face carefully made, as though she had taken the time to look perfect before coming downstairs. But the confidence disappeared the moment her eyes landed on Damian. She stared at him for several seconds, and I watched the realization settle over her face. She had expected to find me alone, broken enough to argue with her, perhaps desperate enough to demand that Ryan choose between us. Instead, she had walked into a room filled with packed boxes, a husband who could no longer control me, and the one man she had probably never imagined would stand beside me.I didn’t give her a reaction. I turned back to the wardrobe and reached for another stack of c

    The first flash hit the windshield before Damian had even turned off the engine, and the second one came so quickly that I instinctively turned toward the window.There were photographers everywhere. They crowded the pavement outside the house, cameras raised, waiting for exactly what I had been trying to avoid. My stomach tightened as I looked toward the front door, wondering how they had gotten there so quickly. Then the door flew open, and Ryan came striding outside as though he had been waiting for the sound of Damian’s car. He stopped at the top of the steps, looked straight at the cameras, and gave them the wounded expression of a man who had just been betrayed in front of the whole world.There he is, one of the photographers shouted. Is that Damian Knight?Ryan didn’t hesitate. He pointed toward our car, his voice carrying across the driveway. Yes. Look at him. Look at the man who destroyed my home. Look at the man who took my lovely wife away from me.I felt the blood rise to

  • Married To My Enemy’s Brother    Chapter 12 : A Wife He No Longer Deserved

    The photograph stayed on my screen. I couldn’t look away.It showed me standing outside a restaurant, my face turned slightly toward the camera. Damian was beside me. The date underneath it was three weeks before Ryan filed for divorce. Three weeks. My stomach twisted. The headline above it was worse.Billionaire’s Wife Secretly Involved With His Cousin Before DivorceI stared at the words until they blurred. No. Damian moved beside me. Let me see. I handed him the phone. His eyes moved across the article.I watched his face change. Not panic.Not fear. Something colder. This was taken three weeks ago,” I whispered. I know.” I wasn’t with you three weeks ago.”I know. The article didn’t care about that. Neither did the people commenting underneath it. They had already decided what happened.So she was cheating before the divorce? Ryan was right. She planned this. She wanted Damian’s money.I scrolled once. I shouldn’t have. There was another photograph. Then another. Different days.Di

    Damian’s last words followed me into the bedroom.Ryan has started talking.I stood by the window with my arms folded across my chest, staring down at the city while Damian remained behind me. The streets below were alive with movement, headlights sliding between buildings, people rushing home, couples sitting in restaurants, living ordinary lives.Mine had stopped being ordinary a long time ago.My phone vibrated. Then again. I looked at the screen.Twelve notifications. I frowned and opened the first one. A photograph filled the screen. Me.Walking beside Damian outside the courthouse.The caption underneath made my stomach turn.Billionaire Damian Knight steals cousin’s wife after humiliating marriage scandal.I stared at it. Another notification appeared. Then another photograph.Damian opening the car door for me.Another showed his hand at my back as we walked through the courthouse.Then one of me entering his building. Someone had clearly been following us. I scrolled through

  • Married To My Enemy’s Brother    Chapter 10 : What He Thought Was His

    Ryan called before the sound of Damian’s footsteps had faded from the hallway.I stared at his name glowing across my screen, my pulse still unsettled from everything that had happened tonight. I had just told Damian I thought I was falling in love with him, and now the man who had spent four years teaching me what betrayal felt like was calling as if he still had the right to reach into my life whenever he pleased. I almost let it ring.Then I answered.What do you want, Ryan?”For a few seconds, he said nothing.I could hear his breathing, slow and deliberate, as though he was choosing every word before letting it out. You sound happy. My fingers tightened around the phone. I was. A quiet laugh came through the speaker.Was?I glanced toward Damian. He had stopped near the bar, his attention fixed on me. He didn’t ask who was calling. He already knew. I don’t have time for this.”You always say that when you’re angry with me. No. I say it now because I don’t want to talk to you.His vo

  • Married To My Enemy’s Brother    CHAPTER 9 : The Line He Crossed

    The penthouse was too quiet.After everything that had happened, I expected Damian to make a phone call, summon another lawyer, or tell me what we were doing next.Instead, he poured me a glass of water and left it on the table. Then he sat across from me.No questions. No instructions. Just silence.I wrapped both hands around the glass.My mind kept returning to Ryan’s face in that courtroom.The shock when he saw Damian beside me.The way his confidence disappeared.The way he’d looked at me afterward, as if he couldn’t understand how the woman he’d left crying had walked into that courtroom with her head held high.I keep thinking I should be crying, I said.Damian leaned back. Why?Because my marriage is over. His eyes stayed on me. Do you want it back? The question caught me off guard. No. The answer came too quickly.I looked down in shame I wanted Ryan to love me. I wanted him to choose me. But I don’t want what we had anymore.Damian said nothing. I swallowed.I don’t even r
