The room was too big. It was too quiet, and it smelled too much like expensive flowers and floor wax. I lay in the middle of the massive bed, feeling like a speck of dust in this giant, cold mansion. I pulled the silk sheets up to my chin, but they didn't feel warm.

They just felt empty.

I let out a shaky breath, and then the first sob broke through. I pressed my face into the pillow to muffle the sound. I hated myself for it. I hated how small I felt. I sniffled, my nose ru

  • My Stepbrother's Dirty Little Secret    Chapter 80 - Very un-Capone of you

    Raphael ━━ ⛓ ━━I kept my focus on Vivianne, or at least I tried to. Across the table, she was explaining how she’d pivot into a sub-network if the primary authentication failed. Normally, this was the kind of talk that made my blood hum... pure, cold logic."The trick isn't the lock, Raphael," Vivianne said, swirling her wine. "It's the guy who thinks he’s the only one with the key. You make him feel too safe, and he’ll leave it under the mat for you.""Yeah," I muttered, leaning in, "Safety is a lie. I learned that the hard way after what you pulled with Alessandro. That dude is a ghost. The fact that you tracked him down and got into his head is fucking impressive."Vivianne let out a soft, dry laugh. She looked down at her wine, a small, private smile tugging at the corners of her mouth, "He is a ghost, alright," she mumbled under her breath. I tried to keep my eyes on her, but my gaze kept sliding to the right, down the long row of expensive plates and flickering candles. There

  • My Stepbrother's Dirty Little Secret    Chapter 79 - Hated myself for being broken.

    Gianna━⊰ ❦ ⊱━I stayed in that corner for a while, my fingers digging so hard into my palms wall that my nails felt like they might snap. My heart wasn't just beating, it was thumping against my ribs like it was trapped and trying to kick its way out. I was shaking, not the good kind of shaking, not the sweet, soft drift after a climax. This was a electric tremor of pure, unboiled rage. Raphael had left me standing there, my body feeling like a wire pulled too tight, aching and soaking wet. I could still feel the ghost of his fingers, but the heat was gone, replaced by the cold air of the gallery that made my skin crawl.I watched his broad shoulders disappear into the crowd. I watched him walk away with that woman, his head tilted toward her as if I hadn't just been coming apart under his touch seconds ago. The way he had looked back at me, the way he had sucked his fingers while staring right into my soul, it was branded into the back of my head. It was stuck there forever. I kne

  • My Stepbrother's Dirty Little Secret    Chapter 78 - Certainly... effective

    Gianna ━⊰ ❦ ⊱━ I slipped away from Dante's circle of friends for a moment, and wandered toward a quiet corner of the gallery and that’s when I saw it. I stopped dead. The painting was massive. It wasn't a portrait, it was a scream captured in oil. It showed a woman, or the ghost of one, trapped behind layers of thin lines that looked like iron bars. Her face was blurred, but her eyes, they were two dark pits of exhaustion. Around her neck, hands made of muddy shadows reached out, to keep her quiet. I felt a cold shiver crawl up my spine, settling in the marrow of my bones. I felt like I knew this woman. It reminded me of my father’s voice, that tone he used when he looked at my school reports. “Is a single, basic sentence really beyond your capacity?” “I've wasted years and a fortune trying to salvage what’s left of your mind, and I am finally finished.” “You aren't some puzzle to be solved, Gianna, you are fundamentally broken.” “You were a mistake from the start, a wort

  • My Stepbrother's Dirty Little Secret    Chapter 77 - My favorite sister of the week

    Gianna ━⊰ ❦ ⊱━ I stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom of the venue, and I just… looked. The dress had already settled on my body like it belonged there, like it had been waiting for me. Black smooth silk catching the light in soft flashes every time I shifted my weight. It didn’t cling, not desperately, not cheaply, it followed like it knew exactly where to stop and where to suggest. I turned slightly, watching the fabric fall along my hips, the slit opening just enough to reveal my leg before slipping back into place when I stilled. My fingers brushed down the side of it. Five years ago, this had been my world. Cocktail dresses. Soft laughter over glasses of champagne. White walls lined with art that people pretended to understand while pretending even harder not to care. I used to belong to nights like this. I exhaled slowly, my gaze flickering back to the mirror, but I wasn’t seeing myself anymore. I was seeing that night. The last gallery I ever walked into. I

  • My Stepbrother's Dirty Little Secret    Chapter 76 - Officially open to... dating.

    Gianna ━⊰ ❦ ⊱━ "Ugh, don't look at me. I was a literal public health hazard before the kiddos made a mother out of me," Claire groaned, her stylus stabbing at her iPad like she was trying to draw blood, "I used to throw parties that would make a rock star check into rehab. Pure, unadulterated carnage." Maddie sat perfectly still, holding her porcelain cup, "I like picnics. And tea parties. The kind of events where people use napkins and nobody ends up in a holding cell. Your parties honestly scared the life out of me, Claire. I thought I was witnessing the fall of Rome." Claire let out a dramatic wail, rolling her eyes toward the ceiling, "I am boring now, Maddie! My parties are extremely tame. It’s mostly toddlers screaming into cupcakes and me hiding in the pantry with my husband. It’s basically a convent." Maddie grinned, "And they are so fun. I’ve never felt more safe." Suddenly, Claire snapped her head toward me, her eyes narrowed, "Gianna. Settle this. Tell me you aren't a

  • My Stepbrother's Dirty Little Secret    Chapter 75 - The final nail in the coffin.

    Raphael ━━ ⛓ ━━ "Delete it," Gianna snapped, her voice sharp as she scrambled to pull her white shirt back over her shoulders. She was shaking, her fingers fumbling over the buttons, her eyes darting to the wall of monitors as if they were live grenades about to detonate, "Right now, Raphael. Wipe the drive. Everything." I stayed seated, leaning back into the chair with confidence. I took my time, methodically cleaning myself before tucking myself away and zipping my pants. "No," I said, as I met her eyes, amused. "Are you insane?" She hissed, stepping toward me, her face pale. She shoved her skirt into place, her knuckles white. "You don't get it. This isn't a game. This is our lives. If there is a digital trail of this... of us... it’s going to burn everything down. You're leaving evidence of a big fat secret." I smirked, "I’m the one who built this network, Gianna. I know every single packet of data that moves through these servers. I can handle any trail I want. Don'

    Raphael ━━ ⛓ ━━ I leaned against the cold marble wall, my glass heavy in my hand. My brothers were all around me, a solid wall of dark suits, expensive cologne, and mean faces. We stood in the shadows of the hall, watching the reception like it was a funeral. Across the room, our father was a

  • My Stepbrother's Dirty Little Secret    Chapter 14 - Fake it until you make it

    Gianna ━⊰ ❦ ⊱━ I stood in front of the full-length mirror, my hands shaking so much I had to tuck them under my arms. I was dressed in a white button-down shirt and black slacks. I spent ten minutes pulling my hair back, brushing it until every stray strand was flattened into a sleek, tight bun

    Gianna ━⊰ ❦ ⊱━ I was still frozen, when Madeleine came jogging back down the stairs. She had a thick textbook tucked under her arm and a bright smile. The normalcy of it felt strange after the moment I’d just had with Raphael. "Ready?" she asked, her voice light. I nodded quickly, not trustring

    Gianna ━⊰ ❦ ⊱━ I slammed the door to the small apartment we all shared. My hands were still shaking, and the spot on my chest where his knuckles had brushed felt like it was on fire. I pressed my palm there again without thinking, then again like maybe if I rubbed the spot enough it would era
