The rest of the evening passed in a thick, charged quiet.

    The rest of the evening passed in a thick, charged quiet. We sat at the dinner table across from each other, our parents chatting happily about their day, completely oblivious to the storm that had raged between us just hours earlier. Vance barely spoke, picking at his food, his expression calm and unreadable to anyone else, but I knew. I felt the weight of his gaze tracking every move I made, heavy and possessive, like he was mentally cataloging every inch of me, reaffirming over and over again that I belonged to him and him alone. Every time I glanced up, I caught him staring. Not the soft, heated looks from before, these were sharper, darker, still laced with that lingering trace of jealousy that had made him call my full name. Moissanite Red. It still echoed in my head, sending a shiver down my spine, not of fear, but of awareness. He was serious. Dead serious. And I knew I had to be careful, not just to protect our secret, but to reassure him that no one, a

  • My Lover, My Stepbrother    Chapter 14: Jealousy Unbound

    The next morning, I walked into school with my guard already up. Even though I’d turned Aldrich down clearly the day before, I couldn’t shake the feeling that things weren’t fully settled yet. We were from the same department, shared two major subjects together, and sat only a few seats apart in both classes, distance wasn’t something I could use to escape him. And honestly? Aldrich was too nice, too genuine, the kind of person who didn’t know how to take a hint the wrong way or hold a grudge. I knew he wouldn’t make things awkward, but I also knew he wouldn’t just disappear completely. I was halfway to our first class when he fell into step beside me. “Hey,” he said, voice warm and easy, no trace of hurt or awkwardness from yesterday. He held his books against his chest, smiling that soft, sincere smile that made it impossible to actually dislike him. “Saw you from the gate. Thought I’d catch up.” “Hi,” I replied, keeping my tone neutral but

  • My Lover, My Stepbrother    Chapter 13: Lines Drawn

    Three days had passed since that afternoon in my room, three days of stolen glances across the dinner table, of hidden touches under the cover of blankets while the TV played, of Vance’s voice whispering promises against my skin when the house went quiet at night. Every inch of me still hummed with the memory of him: the rough heat of his hands, the taste of my own arousal on his lips, the way he’d unraveled me completely until I didn’t know where I ended and he began. My body felt permanently marked, sensitive and alive in places I’d never felt before, every beat of my heart echoing one single truth: I belong to him. Completely, undeniably, irrevocably his. We weren’t classmates, didn’t share a single subject, and that distance during the day only made the pull between us sharper, heavier, like a string pulled tight and ready to snap whenever we were apart. Walking into school on Monday felt like stepping into a different world, one where I had to wear a mask,

  • My Lover, My Stepbrother    Chapter 12: Skin to Skin

    The air in my room felt thick and heavy, still humming with the aftershocks of what we’d just done, but Vance wasn’t done. Not even close. He shifted his weight, dragging himself slowly up my body until his face hovered right over mine, his eyes dark and glazed, burning with a need that hadn’t faded, it had only grown sharper, hungrier. He looked at me like I was the only thing that existed, like he wanted to memorize every line, every dip, every inch of skin he hadn’t touched yet. “You feel so good through the clothes,” he murmured, his voice rough and wrecked, fingers brushing lightly over the collar of my shirt. “But I need more. I need to feel you. All of you.” My breath hitched, my heart hammering a frantic rhythm against my ribs. There was fear there, sharp and bright, but it was completely drowned out by the overwhelming, aching need to be closer, to feel him skin to skin, no barriers, no fabric, nothing between us at all. I nodded slowly, unabl

  • My Lover, My Stepbrother    Chapter 11: Behind Closed Doors

    The big garden was warm and smelled like roses. The staff usually takes care of it, but today was family bonding time so Mom asked me to help her trim plants and pick flowers. I moved slowly though. I couldn’t stop thinking about breakfast earlier. I remembered Vance’s leg pressing against mine under the table and his deep voice saying he wasn’t done with me. Every time I bent down, I could still feel his hands and his lips on me, fresh in my mind. “You’re going so slow today,” Mom said softly. She touched my forehead, looking worried. “You look tired. Still feeling sick?” I nodded, looking down as my face got hot. “Yeah, a bit. My head hurts too.” “Go rest then,” she said right away, guiding me inside. “You’ve done enough. Lie down and drink water. I’ll finish here.” “Are you sure?” “Definitely. Go on.” I walked inside. Tito Vunce took Vance to a business meeting earlier, so I thought they’d be gone all day. But

  • My Lover, My Stepbrother    Chapter 10: Secrets on the Table

    The morning sun filtered through the dining room curtains, casting soft golden streaks across the table, but the light didn’t reach the heavy, charged atmosphere hanging in the air. I sat at my usual spot, staring down at my plate of toast and eggs, barely able to lift my head. Every part of me felt different—like I’d been completely remade the night before, stitched back together with Vance’s hands, his mouth, his words. My skin still hummed, sensitive and aware, carrying the ghost of every touch he’d left behind. It felt like I was glowing from the inside out, a bright, burning light I had to work desperately hard to hide. Across from me, Vance sat quiet. He looked unbothered on the surface—relaxed posture, one arm draped over the back of the empty chair beside him, lazily sipping his coffee. But I knew better. I saw the way his jaw was set, the way his eyes were darker than usual, heavy with the weight of what we’d done and what we now shared. Every few secon
