"You haven't touched a drop of alcohol since this trip started." Hunter noted. His voice was casual but his eyes were sharp.

I should have known—he was tracking my every move. Documenting every change in my behavior like a predator.

"I’m just not feeling well," I murmured and reached for a slice of cheesecake.

I didn't even want it.

I just needed to give my hands something to do so they wouldn't shake.

"Then we’re going to the doctor," Hunter said. His voice dropped an octave. A low v

  • My Stepbrother Got Me Pregnant   Chapter one hundred and twenty

    ChristinaI slipped into a thin silk nightdress.The fabric was cool against my still-flushed skin.Kai was sleeping peacefully beside me.His small hand was curled beneath his cheek.His small chest rising and falling steadily after our exhausting day at the sea aquarium.I brushed my fingers through his hair.A lump formed in my throat.His paternal grandmother was right here in this house.Hunter’s mother.And neither of them knew the other existed.The thought felt surreal.Why had she come at this hour?I had only ever seen her in passing — at school events years ago.Sometimes scolding a young, rebellious Hunter when teachers complained.She had never stepped foot in this house before.Had she recognized me earlier, half-naked in her son’s coat, eyes swollen from crying?Did she know who I was?My mind spun.The guilt. The secrets. The suffocating weight of everything I was hiding pressed down on my chest until I could barely breathe.Eventually I gave up trying to think.I clim

  • My Stepbrother Got Me Pregnant   Chapter one hundred and nineteen

    HunterSeeing her in this mansion, let alone at this hour, was more shocking than the disaster zone around me.She never came here.Not after her divorce from Dad.Not when I needed her.Not even on my birthdays — just a bouquet and some expensive gift delivered by her secretary.A card with a signature at the bottom.That was it.That was all I ever got.Yet tonight she was here.Standing in my room.Looking at me like she actually cared."You weren't picking up your calls," she said, her voice sharp and pristine. "You should be over at the estate with Lisa. She needs you. The stalker hasn't been caught yet. What if—"Something inside me snapped."Ask her dad," I cut her off. The words tearing from my throat like a growl. "I don't take responsibility for her."I was already past the point of sanity.The fury in my veins was toxic.

    Hunter The heavy mahogany door clicked shut behind her.The second she was gone, the volatile rage I’d been choking down erupted.I whirled around and slammed my fist into the mirror.The glass exploded.A spiderweb of cracks spread through my reflection before the entire thing shattered.Every piece violently rained down around me.Sharp pain shot through my knuckles as blood began to drip down my fingers, but I barely felt it.Blood dripped from my hand and splattered onto the hardwood.I stood there breathing hard, staring at my shattered reflection.Pathetic.At the broken man staring back at me through a hundred shattered pieces.Slowly, my hand slipped into my pocket.My bloody fingers sank deep until it closed around a small velvet box.The gift I'd bought for her.The gift I'd been carrying around like a fool.I popped ope

    ChristinaThe moment the SUV screeched to a halt in front of the Carter mansion, I didn't wait for Douglas to open my door.I threw it open myself, lifted Kai into my arms and carried him inside.I gently laid him on his bed, pulled the quilt over his small body and kissed his forehead.Then I headed straight to Hunter’s room.I knew he was there.His black mastang had been parked in the driveway like a silent warning.The door was already open, as if he had been waiting for me.The moment I stepped inside, I saw him.Hunter was sprawled on the couch like a king on his throneHis one leg crossed over the other, swirling a glass of whiskey in his hand.He was still wearing the same clothes from last night — the ones he had worn when he left me on that couch to go to Lisa.Creased.. Maybe it still carried her strong cologne scent.My stomach twisted with ugly jealousy.Then I noticed the coffee table.Another glass sat on the table in front of him, already poured.Like he knew I would

    ChristinaAs usual, Hunter was nowhere to be seen since last night.“Mommy, where is Uncle Hunter?” Kai asked. His hopeful little eyes fixed on the front door. “He promised to take me to the sea aquarium today.”My heart squeezed painfully.Hunter hadn’t come back until very late — if he had come back at all.Kai had stayed up waiting for him, fighting sleep with pure excitement, only to fall asleep disappointed in the end.That was exactly what I was terrified of.I knew what kind of man Hunter was.Ruthless. Calculating.He would make Kai fall in love with him, make my son crave his attention, only to break his heart.He did it with me too.I gently pulled Kai into my arms and caressed his soft hair, pressing a kiss to the top of his head.“He must have gotten busy with work, sweetheart,” I whispered, trying to keep my voice light. “He’ll take you another day, okay? I promise.”Kai nodded sadly but the disappointment in his eyes stayed with me.It was past six in the evening.Mom an

    ChristinaI slipped into my room and closed the door behind me but sleep felt impossible.I kept tossing and turning on the mattress, changing the sides every two minutes.The sheets tangled around my legs like chains.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Hunter’s face — the way his expression had shifted from raw hunger to cold tension in a single second.One second he was hovering over me with that possessive greed and next, a single phone call had completely broken his focus.What the hell had happened?Why did he leave like that?He looked so tense, so urgent when he rushed out.No explanation.No goodbye.Just the sound of his car roaring away into the night.I glanced at the glowing digital clock on my nightstand.3:00 AM.The mansion felt eerily quiet now but my mind was loud — too loud.I kept remembering the old days.The nights Hunter would disappear for hours, then come back with blood on his knuckles, bruises on his jaw and that dangerous glint in his eyes.Road rage.Underg

    ChristinaI stepped out of the elevator onto the seventeenth floor.The entire level looked sleek and expensive—glass walls, polished floors, quiet employees moving with purpose.It was nothing like the old Carter Group office I remembered.A woman stood near the reception desk holding a file. The

    ChristinaI bit his lip.The sharp metallic taste of blood filled my mouth and Hunter immediately pulled back.For a second we just stared at each other, breathing hard.His eyes dropped as he touched his lower lip. When he looked at his fingers, a faint smear of red stained them.His gaze lifted s

    It had been a week since Hunter left.A week since his shadow stopped chasing me.A week since I tried to convince myself I could finally breathe again.That’s what I felt after his disappearance from the cafe.I loaded my bags into the back of the taxi and forced my hands not to tremble.“Chris, I

    I barely made it to the bathroom before the nausea hit me again.My stomach heaved. Violent. Relentless. I clutched the sink like it was the only thing keeping me upright.Cold water. That’s all I needed. I rinsed my mouth. Splashed my face. Whispered to myself to get it together.But the moment I s
