“Hi, Carol,” He came to view as Carol stood to give him a brief hug then she pulled back dramatically. “Hope I didn’t just mess with your arm?”

Jeremy said something about being okay. He was smiling, they were exchanging words, but I was finding it hard to breath properly. I could still feel the brush of his fingers around my neck. I swallowed.

Then Carol said “You are healing just fine, see how good you look.”

Jeremy looked my way even though it was Carol who spoke. “Yeah? You think they all know?” He asked her, a hint of casual arrogance in his tone. I blinked away. I couldn’t believe he was doing this. I wanted to stand up so bad. This was embarassing.

“Oh, they’d know even if they on googles.” Carol exaggerated, and I couldn’t help but look their way again. He was still looking.

“I thought so” He replied Car, adjusted his collar like he was showing off, or trying to make a point. It worked. Jeremiah Carter didn’t have to do any show off for me to see how great he looked-always loo

  • My Biker Stepbrother, My Ruin   The Event Begins

    ~Teyana’s POV~Carol was already sprawled on my bed when I came out of the closet, tugging at the hem of my dress for the fifth time.“You’ve finally learned taste,” she teased, eyes twinkling. “I swear, this new version of you is a lot more fun. The old Teyana would never wear something this hot.”I smiled faintly, though it barely reached my eyes. “Guess people change.” It was my stepfather’s political grand event tonight.She didn’t notice how I kept fidgeting. My fingers were trembling slightly as I adjusted the strap of my dress again. Ever since I left Jeremy’s house two days ago, my mind hadn’t stopped spinning. Every time I closed my eyes, I could still feel his arms around me, the smell of him, the way his voice softened when he said my name.I’d told my mother when I got back home that Jeremy insisted he wouldn’t come to the event. She had looked disappointed, but honestly, I’m happy he wouldn’t show up.I didn’t even think I could be around him and be logical any longer.Ca

  • My Biker Stepbrother, My Ruin   She Was Here

    ~Jeremy’s POV~The house felt emptier after she left. I hadn’t wanted to let go. I should’ve told her I didn’t want to.I should’ve told her I’d burn the whole damn world just to keep her close.I should have told her my heart had literally stopped when I met her in my room. But instead, I let her walk out of that door, because I was a coward. I poured myself a glass of scotch from my home bar, though I didn’t even want it. It burned down my throat anyway.I could still feel her scent on me. I had never felt so much at peace in my entire life until I wrapped around her earlier. I never knew peace didn’t require much. I had money- lots of it. Heck, I had never been turned down by any girl in my entire life. I barely ask them, they come to me. I have the looks, charm, and definitely the money. But none of those listed fulfilled me.It had only taken for Teyana to come into my life… And my whole perception about fufilment changed. All my life, I had been waiting for her love without

  • My Biker Stepbrother, My Ruin   Sacred Contact

    I took my time dressing up the next morning, pretending I didn’t care, but my trembling hands betrayed me.Every time I tried to clasp my earring, it slipped from my fingers. I must’ve stared at my reflection for a solid minute before realizing I was still practicing the same sentence again,“Mom said you should attend your Dad’s event.” It sounded stiff every time. I sighed and ran a hand over my hair. Why was my voice shaking? Why was I even nervous? and why was overly conscious of my blue round neck and jeans?The drive to Jeremy’s mansion felt like an emotional torture. I kept rehearsing what to say, trying to sound normal. Calm. Unbothered. I wasn’t sure which of those words even applied to me anymore.By the time I parked, my heartbeat was in my throat. I picked my phone and dialed Zayne. Maybe hearing his voice would redirect my head from obsessing over dealing with Jeremy.And I was also curious about the DNA issue which still felt surreal to me by the way. His number hadn’t

  • My Biker Stepbrother, My Ruin   A DNA Test?

    “I don’t understand,” I whispered, easing myself off Zayne’s lap. My heartbeat drummed fast against my chest.He stood up right after I did, raking both hands through his hair and let out a raw, broken laugh- one that sent chills down my spine. “I knew it. I fucking knew it!” he barked, pacing a few steps away from me. His voice cracked like a man shattering. “That psychopath was never my real father.”“Zayne,” I reached out, my voice trembling, “you need to calm down and talk to me.”But he wasn’t looking at me. His eyes were somewhere else—far gone. “Everything has always pointed to it,” he said, his voice shaking. “The way Connor treated me like I was just some stranger in the family, like I didn’t matter. I knew it in my gut.”He stopped pacing and turned toward me. “So I decided to find out for myself.” He exhaled, still catching his breath. “I took his hair from his brush…and ran a DNA test.”My heart shifted in my chest. “You did… a DNA test?”His face paled, eyes hollow. “The

  • My Biker Stepbrother, My Ruin   Where It Started

    “I told Benny I would wait when she said you left for the election show-up. I’ve been waiting for the past three hours.” Zayne said to me, standing there with a red bouquet in his hand and a look that showed soberness. “For you.” Benny- our butler, passed just then. She threw a small smile our way, then went inside. I thought I missed Zayne. Heck, I thought about him throughout yesterday, wondering if that was the end of us because he hadn’t reached out after he left me at Carol’s five days ago. But seeing him now… The fondness was still there but there were no butterflies in my belly like I expected. And that brought the question- Did I even love Zayne at all? “Hey,” I gave a polite smile at the same time realization dawned on me. I had only accepted Zayne because I thought he had his emotions in check and knew what he wanted. I didn’t want him for him, but for the idea of him in my head. I wanted Zayne because he made me feel safe and wanted at first. I wanted him becaus
