FEW HOURS EARLIER

DAMON;

My chest heaved as I stared at Layla and then at the photographs littered on the floor.

She looked very panicked as she quickly knelt to snatch them all off. Something was off.

"Olivia is not the one for you, Damon." She huffed, standing upright as she shoved those in the envelope with her. "Its been years. Years and I don't understand why you just can't get over her."

It was very obvious she harbored a deep dislike for Olivia, but I never believed she could do something of this sort.

I took a step towards her, almost closing the space between us as I stared into her eyes.

"You made her believe I cheated on her, didn't you?" My voice as low and calm, but I was burning with rage right now. I couldn't forget that look in her eyes when she spoke to me. Whatever might have given her that notion must've been really concrete for her to believe it and hold it against me since then.

Layla's lips were pursed, and she tried to move backwards, but I grabbed

  • My Fiance's Brother    EPILOGUE 2

    ONE YEAR LATER — ZOEY’S POVI liked mornings in our home. They smelled like pancakes and sunshine. Mommy always said the sun hit our windows in a special way, but I thought it was because the sun liked us.Maybe the sun knew we were happy now.I woke up in my big girl bed, hugging Mr. Bunny. Daddy bought him for me when I had a bad dream last month, and he said Mr. Bunny’s job was to chase monsters away. I believed him. Daddy never lied.I climbed out of bed and padded down the hallway on my tippy toes. Mommy and Daddy’s room door was half-open. I peeked in and saw them cuddling like they always did in the mornings. Daddy’s arm was around Mommy, and Mommy’s head was on his chest. They looked so warm and soft, like a picture from the storybooks Mommy read to me.I smiled and whispered, “Mommy?”Mommy lifted her head and smiled back. Daddy rubbed his eyes, still sleepy.“Good morning, baby,” Mommy said.“Come here, sweetheart,” Daddy added, opening his arm.I climbed into their bed, and

  • My Fiance's Brother    EPILOGUE

    Olivia's pov;It had been months since the chaos that had almost torn our lives apart. Marcus and Layla were behind bars, finally dealt with by the law, and I could hardly believe the freedom we now had. New York had become more than a temporary refuge; it was home. Safe. Full of life. Full of possibility.I woke up one Saturday morning to the smell of coffee drifting from the kitchen. Damon was already awake, sitting at the small breakfast table, eyes focused on his laptop, but glancing up at me every so often with that soft, warm look that always made my heart skip.“Morning, beautiful,” he said, closing the laptop as I stretched and walked toward him. His smile deepened when I sat across from him.“Morning,” I replied, leaning forward to kiss him softly. “Coffee smells amazing.”“Only the best for my wife,” he said, teasing, but the tenderness in his tone made me smile. “And my little family.”I glanced toward the living room, where Zoey was already playing with her toys on the sof

  • My Fiance's Brother    Finally Safe

    Olivia's pov;The moment Marcus and Layla were finally taken away, I felt a weight lift off my chest that I hadn’t even realized was there. My knees buckled, and I collapsed onto the couch, gasping. My hands were shaking, and my heart felt like it was trying to escape my chest. Damon was instantly at my side, his strong arms wrapping around me, holding me like he could absorb all the fear and tension that had built inside me.“Liv…” he whispered, his voice low and trembling just slightly. “It’s over. It’s really over.”I pressed my face against his chest, taking in the steady beat of his heart. I wanted to believe him. I needed to believe him. After everything—the threats, the attacks, the fear—I finally felt a flicker of safety. Damon’s arms felt like home. They always had. And right now, I realized just how much I’d missed that feeling, that security, that unconditional love.“I can’t… I can’t believe it,” I murmured, my voice muffled against his shirt. “I was so scared… Damon… for

  • My Fiance's Brother    Game Over, Marcus

    MARCUS;I sat in the dark cell, the cold metal biting into my skin through my clothes. The damp smell of the room filled my lungs, but I hardly noticed. All I could feel was the rage burning inside me, twisting my stomach into knots. How had it happened? How had I been so stupid? I had planned everything. Every detail. Every step. And yet… here I was, trapped, humiliated, powerless.Layla stood a few feet away, arms crossed, her eyes blazing. She didn’t speak, but I could feel her fury radiating through the small space. She was usually controlled, calculating—but now… she was a storm waiting to explode.I ran my hands through my hair, pacing the small area as best I could. “I don’t understand,” I growled. “I had them. I had them both. I had Damon in my sights. Liv was cornered. Zoey was—” I stopped, swallowing hard, my chest tightening. “I was so close. And now…” My voice faltered, anger choked off by disbelief.Layla’s jaw tightened. “Now? Now they’re alive, and you’re locked up like

  • My Fiance's Brother    I Thought I Lost You

    Olivia's pov;The rain had finally slowed, but the house still smelled of wet wood. My chest was tight, my heart still pounding from what had just happened. The memory of Marcus—the control, the terror, the sheer intensity of his presence—was still fresh in my mind. I shivered despite the warmth of the room.Damon was beside me, his hand tight around mine. I could feel his tension, the lingering adrenaline coursing through him. His face was pale, his jaw tight. He was still processing it too. Neither of us spoke immediately, just sat in the dim light of the living room, letting the quiet settle between us.“Is… is it over?” I whispered, barely audible.Damon’s eyes didn’t leave mine. “I think… yes,” he said slowly, his voice rough. “They’ve got him. The police… he’s caught.”I let out a shaky breath, relief crashing over me in waves. I had thought we’d lost everything for a moment—the house, Zoey, Damon himself. That fear had clawed at my chest, sharp and unrelenting. Just thinking ab

  • My Fiance's Brother    You can't stop me!

    MARCUS The storm had not let up. Rain pounded against the windows, lightning slicing the darkness in jagged, violent flashes. Thunder rumbled low, shaking the floorboards. Perfect. It added drama to the moment. I was in control—or at least, I thought I was.Liv was there, pinned against the counter, her eyes wide, her body trembling. Every instinct in her screamed to fight, to run, to scream. But she couldn’t move. Not with me here. Not with Damon’s attention divided, not with Layla at the other side of the room distracted by shadows I had planted, precise and calculated.“Stay still,” I whispered, leaning close to her, letting my hands rest firmly on her waist. My lips brushed her temple. “Tonight… this is mine.”Her pulse raced beneath my fingertips. Fear. Panic. Anticipation. She shivered, and I could smell it, taste it almost. Everything I had planned, every detail I had worked through, every precaution—it was all culminating here.Damon… predictable as ever, too focused on her,
