ALEC

By the time I got back to the house, Jenna was asleep.

I stood in the doorway for a moment, watching her curled beneath the duvet, her hair scattered across the pillow. She’d clearly been exhausted, and I was glad she’d managed to get some rest. After everything that had happened at dinner, she deserved a few hours without someone demanding something from her.

I pulled the door shut quietly and went to my room.

The following morning, I woke to a message from Roman asking whether I was stil

  • My Jerk stepbrother    Chapter 61

    JENNA’S POV The first thing I noticed was the pain. It was everywhere, a dull, relentless ache that made it difficult to tell which part of my body hurt the most. My head throbbed, my ribs protested every time I tried to breathe too deeply, and something tugged at my arm whenever I moved.I tried to open my eyes, but the light above me was too bright. A groan escaped my throat.“Jenna?”The familiar voice came from somewhere beside me. I turned my head, immediately regretted it, and squeezed my eyes shut.“Easy,” Anna said. “Don’t move too quickly.”Anna?I forced my eyes open again, blinking until the room came into focus. White walls. A monitor beside the bed. An IV line running into my hand.A hospital.Memories returned in broken pieces. The motorcycle. Headlights and the sound of metal scraping against the road.Alec.I tried to sit up.“Jenna, please.” Anna was on her feet in an instant, gently pressing my shoulder back against the pillow. “You need to lie still.”“Where’s Alec

    ALECI’d won plenty of fights before, but this one felt different. It wasn’t the victory that mattered. It was the fact that I wouldn’t have to do it again.After I cleaned up and changed, I returned to Jenna. She looked me over, her gaze lingering on the swelling around my cheek. “You look terrible.”“Missed you too.”“I’m serious.”“You should see the other guy.”She snorted. “I’m sure he’s thrilled to have met you.”I sat beside her, and she immediately reached for my face. “Does it hurt?”“Are you going to kiss it better?”She gave me a look. “Absolutely not.”“Cruel woman.”She shook her head, but she was smiling when she pressed a quick kiss to the uninjured side of my face.“Better?”“No, I want more.” I caught her hand and kissed her knuckles before standing. “But let’s get out of here first.”She rose beside me, slipping her arm through mine as we headed toward the exit. But I should have known things wouldn’t be that simple. Darius was waiting near the door.“Leaving alread

    ALECBy the time I got back to the house, Jenna was asleep.I stood in the doorway for a moment, watching her curled beneath the duvet, her hair scattered across the pillow.

After everything that had happened at dinner, she deserved a few hours without someone demanding something from her.I pulled the door shut quietly and went to my room.The following morning, I woke to a message from Roman asking whether I was still serious about quitting the fights.I sent him a single reply. *Dead serious.*Then I dropped my phone on the bed and headed for the shower.I had things to do before the evening, including checking on the building and making a few calls about the work I wanted to get started. I’d been putting off some decisions for too long, and if I was going to move forward, I needed to stop treating my plans like something I’d get around to eventually.By the time I came downstairs, Jenna was in the kitchen

    A/N: Okayyy guyssss! Alec sent a message. He asked me to tell you all to BUCKLE UP, because we’re about to enter the real dark romance part. Yeah… all those things you’ve read so far? That wasn’t dark.That was just the tip of what Alec has in store for you. You’re about to meet the unhinged side of him. And apparently, he said Jenna, you, and I are going to enjoy every bit of it. 👀He also asked me to warn anyone who isn’t comfortable with dark romance themes because we’re getting more into:Dub-con. 
Possessiveness. 
Obsession. 
Power imbalance. 
Violence.

    JENNA“So, Jenna,” my mom said, setting her wine glass down. “Have you thought about what you’re doing for the summer?”I looked up from my plate “Summer is still months away mom, it’s not even new year yet”“Which is why we should start making arrangements now,” she replied, cutting into her turkey. “Joe and I have been talking about it, and we think it would be a good idea for you to spend the summer in Boston.”My fork stopped halfway to my mouth.“Boston?”There was no fucking way I was agreeing to that. This was obviously planned by Joe.“Yes, sweetheart. Joe’s company is taking on interns next summer, and he’s willing to make a place for you. It would be a wonderful opportunity to gain some experience and make connections before you graduate.”I stared at her, waiting for the part where she asked me whether I wanted to do it, but it never came.“I haven’t even applied for an internship,” I pointed out.“You wouldn’t have to go through all that trouble. Joe has already spoken to

    JENNA’S POVMy phone buzzed on the nightstand, forcing me to open my eyes. I picked it up, seeing Lisa’s name on the screen, and slid it to my ear.“Happy Thanksgiving, gorgeous!” Lisa’s cheerful voice burst through the speaker.I couldn't help the small smile that touched my lips. “Happy Thanksgiving, Lisa. What are you doing today?”“Honestly? Not much yet. Just lying in bed trying to decide what to wear.”“You should come over here. You don’t have anyone to celebrate with today anyway. Come join us for dinner.” I said, sitting up and pulling the blanket around my shoulders as I glanced around the room.Where did Alec go?.“Oh, no way. Don’t worry about me,” Lisa chuckled. “I’m actually going to a party later tonight with some guys and a couple of friends from work. I’ll be totally fine.”“Are you sure?” I pressed, not wanting her to spend the holiday with strangers. “It’s no trouble at all. And I’m sure Anna wouldn’t mind.”“I’m positive, Jen. You enjoy your family dinner. I’ll cal

    A knock on my dragged me out of my dream.“Jenna?” Anna’s voice floated through the door, soft and overly excited for 7 a.m. “Sweetheart, it’s your first day. You have to get up!”Right, First day of school in these new town.I shot up from bed with a burst of energy I definitely didn’t have last n

    If my mother lectured me any harder, the entire steering wheel would melt from the heat of her disappointment. “Jenna, I am begging you, please behave yourself this time.” She said. For the tenth time. In twenty minutes. I slouched deeper into the passenger seat, pushing one earbud in. Not bot
