Kayden ran down the stairs with Aria in his arms only to run into Aunt Barbara, who had returned to the mansion this afternoon after going to the countryside for a while.

“Oh my God! What happened to her? Is she alright?” Aunt Barbara asked, looking worried.

Kayden would have ignored her if not for the respect he had for her.

“I need to take her to the hospital immediately; I'll explain everything to you later,” he explained and hurriedly made his way to the jeep that Andy had parked by the

  • My Brother-in-law's sinful offer   27

    27Damian turned an icy, razor-sharp gaze onto Jake and uttered a single, low command: "Scram.""Yes, Boss!" Jake squeaked, dumping the massive paper bag onto the entryway console before practically throwing himself into the elevator.The doors slid shut with a quiet chime, leaving Damian and me standing alone in the silent, echoing hallway.I couldn't form a single sentence. I was utterly mortified, my face burning with a fiery, unbearable heat. I had completely, spectacularly misunderstood his intentions."A mistress?" Damian drawled softly, tasting the word on his tongue as if analyzing its texture. "It sounds strangely intriguing coming from your lips."There was an unreadable, dangerous glint in his gray eyes. They looked darker than usual—heavy, intense, and hooded. His gaze drifted slowly down from my eyes, lingering on my mouth before sweeping over my entire body and returning to hold my gaze hostage.The obscure, predatory light dancing in his eyes made my lungs freeze.I bi

    26I kept my gaze glued to the passenger window, desperately avoiding his heavy, focused stare."Do you enjoy looking at the city skyline that much?" Damian asked, his voice smooth and amused. "Or am I really that scary?""It's a city full of painful memories," I replied softly, my tone guarded. "Why would I like it?"Damian deliberately ignored the gloomy edge in my words, letting out a low chuckle. "So, you don't think I'm scary?""I didn't say..." The rest of my sentence caught in my throat as the trap snapped shut.By stating I didn't like the city, I had implicitly answered his binary question: *he wasn't the scary one.*A subtle smile spread across his features as he caught my flustered expression. "Why don't you take this as your chance to make new memories... good ones? Hand the painful memories over to me, Arabella. Let me build better ones in their place."My body went completely rigid.The weight of his words settled heavily in the air. I didn't know how to respond, nor di

  • My Brother-in-law's sinful offer   25

    25For a long moment, I stood frozen in the center of the living room, tongue-tied, my gaze fixed on the double doors Ethan had slammed shut."W–what does he mean by that?" I whispered into the lingering silence, asking no one in particular. Ethan was the one who claimed our marriage was a mistake, so where was this sudden, petulant resistance coming from?"Arabella, dear," Caroline said softly, stepping closer and taking my trembling hand in hers. "I think Ethan is having second thoughts... Perhaps deep down, he doesn't want to lose you after all."I closed my eyes, forcing myself to take a slow, agonizing breath in and out.*Second thoughts?* No. The only reason Ethan was acting out was because his bloated ego couldn't stomach the reality of me walking away first. He wanted me broken, begging, and groveling at his feet just to feel powerful.*What a heartless scumbag.*Three whole years of marriage, and he kept showing me ugly, malicious sides of himself I never knew existed.

    The look on Ethan's face was absolute gold. The color drained from his face, his skin darkening into a dangerous shade of crimson at my confession."Who bought them?" he bit out, his sharp eyes narrowing as his mind raced, desperately calculating which powerful figure in the industry could have possibly handed me such a lifeline."Why don't you take a guess?" I replied, forcing a calm, provoking smile onto my face. "I told you before that I could raise that money in three days if I lowered myself to your level.""You ran to another man the second you got the chance?" Ethan roared, his composure shattering as he lunged forward, his hands reaching for my throat.Before I could even react or step back, Damian caught Ethan's wrist before his fingers could reach me. I had almost forgotten he was standing right behind me."I told you not to lay a hand on her!" Damian growled, his voice deep, dangerous, and dripping with raw menace.Ethan froze, staring at his father with sudden suspicion. S

    Arabella’s POV Damian looked down at me, his gaze dark and unreadable. "What is going on here?" he repeated, his voice low and dangerously calm.Before I could form a sentence, Ethan stepped forward, staring at his dad with confusion. "Dad? What are you doing here?"Damian didn't answer his question. Instead, he turned his full attention to his son, his presence overwhelming the room. "Answer me. What is happening here? You cheated on Arabella?" Ethan let out a dismissive chuckle. "What? Are you going to make a big deal out of this, too? Even if I cheated, so what? If she were “wife material,” she would have kept me from straying in the first place."A hot wave of shame flushed across my face at his vile words. Every sharp comeback I had prepared withered on my tongue, replaced by a dull, suffocating numbness."Ethan!" Caroline gasped, looking horrified."Apologize to her. Right now," Damian bit out, his voice dropping into a register so dangerously low it sent a chill straight down

    22"She has been at Ethan's house for over an hour," Damian bit out, his voice dropping an octave, "and you are only choosing to inform me now?”"I... um... I thought you didn't want to receive updates on her whereabouts, Boss, since you explicitly instructed Jake not to follow her," Andrew stuttered, taking an involuntary step back.He had worked as Damian's personal assistant for over 10 years. He had been an ambitious twenty-four-year-old when he first took the job, yet after all these years, the sheer weight of Damian’s aura could still make his lungs seize. Whenever Damian fixed that signature, ruthless glare onto someone, it triggered an instinctive, terrifying urge to submit—leaving zero room for presumption, argument, or error.He possessed the kind of commanding presence that made people instinctively straighten their backs when he entered a room.And right now, Andrew could sense that he was in trouble."You disobeyed my direct orders," Damian said, his eyes narrowing dange
