MasukA week passed since I started living with my older step brother Killian.
Every day in this house felt like pure torture.After the events that happened that night I made it a life long mission never to cross path with him again till the semester ended. Mom had been checking up on me but I haven't returned her text or any of her messages because I still feel betrayed by the fact that she could keep something as crucial as that away from me. I had classes with Killian just twice a week and even though I lived with him no one in school knew that he was my stepbrother and that I lived with him in the same house. Killian hasn’t spoken to me since we started living together, my breakfast had been alone and he had a driver take me to school each day. His actions made it clear that he didn’t want to be seen with me. While I didn’t feel right about the way he treated me, I still couldn’t agree that him acting that way made me feel more at ease in the house. Within the week, I found myself getting curious about why he acts so distant, and cold. Somehow I wondered if it was the military that made him that way. I found myself wanting to know why he left the military and took the job as a professor. I found myself watching him all week. I noticed he was always on his phone, he had a small click of friends as I have only seen him with two other guys in the house. Nicolas had made it his life mission to text me all day asking me how I was coping with his older brother and somehow I found myself not being broken by the fact that I was in love with him but instead filled with the mystery of Killian. My stomach rumbled and I groaned as I reached for the bottle of soda that was just by my bed stand but as I picked it up, the bottle was empty. My eyes scanned one to my phone on the bed and it was already late and it was almost 12pm. I had been so engrossed in my book that I didn’t even bother to have dinner. The last thing I wanted was to run into Killian again, I wanted to avoid him for as long as I could. As I turned my stomach rumbled again, I stood up and walked out of the room slowly shutting my door so I didn't make any sound to wake him up. Their were no noise of anything in the kitchen and once I got in, I walked over as I tried to pick the next bottle of Coca-Cola but as I grabbed it the bottle suddenly slipped from my hands. Just as I was about to grab it from falling, the huge hands from behind grabbed the bottle. I tried to move back a bit but when I did my body touched a warm wet but manly body. My heart starts beating against my chest as the air tightens. My legs froze in one place but before I could move I felt the strong pair of arms slide from my waist turning me to face him and as I met the pair of blue eyes staring back at me. Killian had just sweat pants and a top, his wet hair indicated that he just had a swim. Kill…ian, I stammered as I tried to move but instead he moved closer. His eyes moved to the Coca-Cola in his other hands and I see the smirk suddenly appear on his face. I bartered my lashes as I looked down on my knees and pressed my fingers at the uncomfortable position I had just found myself. “Look at me” he commanded in low but chilled voice that sent fear down my spine. I raised my eyes to look at him but unlike the cold man I knew, I saw him smile but the smile disappeared from his face almost in an instant. “You’ve been avoiding me” he says gently as he sends his hands to my hairs and curls his hands on it as he pressed even closer to me as his smell filled my nostrils. Have I? Killian nods gently the kind of nod that send a direct messages. My eyes goes over to the tatoos on his slightly parted chest. “I can’t be in this position with you Killian, please let me go” I begged the desperation and the fear laced on my voice. I see a displeased look flash across his face in an instant and he drops the Coca-Cola on his other hands as he moved dangerously close. My breath hitched again as I looked to the side as the tension suddenly builds up in me and the hotness took over. Why did I suddenly feel so hot. As I rested my back on the fridge his hands slowly slid his hand to my face pulling me to face him with just one finger. My eyes stared at him in that moment I knew that I saw something in his eyes, that kind of curious looks that flashed off in an instant. As he pressed even closer he suddenly grabbed both my hands and raised it up far above my head as he trapped me with one hand. He bent his head towards me and my eyes slammed shut in an instant as the thought of what he was about to do hit me. As I thought about it, I feel this fear building up inside of me questioning my actions, what was I doing? After waiting for the kiss for a short while, Killian lips never touched mine, I opened my eyes again and I met Killian eyes. As I looked at him I could see the mockery and the hinted smile on his face laced with the amusement. My cheecks burned from embrassment as the though of what I had just done placed over and over again in my head like a fucking movie. I watched Killian take some steps back as he grabbed the Coca-Cola he had dropped on the table. Just as he was about to leave he turned to look at me. “And I thought you were madly in love with Nicolas” he drags out the word and every last piece of dignity I had left in me strips off as my chest feels at the impact of his words and the shame washed all over me.******Killian.*****The best decision that I made in my life was getting married to Tessa. Or no, that was not the best decision.The best decision I made was returning back home after being away for five years and then I met her .It’s been five years since I got married to her, and even though behind the fact that the five years had been pure bliss, it was the best five years of my life.I had the best family, I had my children all over me, and lastly, Tessa gave birth to another beautiful baby girl.I didn’t know if I was being biased, but I loved having girls, and I wanted her to give birth to as much pretty angels as she could.Aria was literally the next version of me, and even as she grew older, the bond between us didn’t die, but instead, it grew stronger.I loved the bond that came with having a daughter, the femininity that came with it, and how much they cared about what everyone was feeling.Tessa had been nothing but the perfect mother, a loving wife, and the biggest sup
Five years later.Tessa:::Five years later.I laid uncomfortably on the bed as I turned to roll over to the other side, but the pain from my stomach stopped me right on track, and I stopped.My body felt really weak and tired, and yet I could hear Aria’s loud voice from the living room.Suddenly, the door to the room opened, and Aria ran inside with this sweet smile on her face.Her brunette hair was all over, and she had the cutest smile that I could ever wish for.“Mom, when’s dad coming back?”I stared at Aria. This was the third time she was asking me the same question in a day, and genuinely, I was losing my damn mind by just staring at her.“Honey, don’t you think you could help me with catching up your sisters?All Lana does is cry every day.”“That’s your sister,” I scolded her as I picked her up.I forced myself out of the bed as I stared at my reflection in the mirror.I only wanted to have a nap, and I was so fucking stressed out from the cries of my little girl.I looked
TessaI was finally married. That was the only thing that played in my head as I looked at Killian, who was speaking with both Zead and Nicolas.It’s been 24 hours since we got married, and the last 24 hours had been nothing short of a roller coaster.I was happy, that was the only thing that kept playing in my head.Nicolas and Louisa were living alone, so they offered to take good care of the kids, and that’s exactly what I agreed to do.Nicolas’s and Louisa’s baby was already 7 months old, and they seemed like the perfect match from God.My mom wanted to keep them, but somehow I didn’t want them to live with her, considering that she wasn’t that used to them, and with time she would get it .Killian finally stops talking and then turns away as he hugs his brother.I have watched the relationship between Killian and Nicolas grow over the years, and I never thought that the bond that they both shared would get to this level, but here it was, and I couldn’t help but imagine how it wou
Tessa POVToday was the day that I had dreamt of my entire life, the one day that I hoped would happen to me.I didn’t think that this day would come, but staring at my reflection in the mirror, I struggled to hold the tears that were threatening to come out.The beautiful white wedding gown that I wore closed down as I stood in that room waiting for the moment to be called.The room was empty, just as I had requested, and I was waiting for just one person before I walked down the aisle.Isabel walks right in with the flower bouquet in her hands, and the moment I saw her, I almost let the tears fall out, but instead, she glared so hard at me that the tears that I wanted to let out disappeared in an instant.“You don’t want to ruin your pretty makeup, princess,” she reminds me as I sit down there.“Not today, please,” I say admit laughter. “You don’t have to do that.”Isabel grabs my hands and smiles at me.“Do you know how long I dreamt of this day? When you finally ended your relati
Three months laterKillian POVIt’s been a whole three months since Tessa came back to me and I accepted the fact that it has been one of the best three months of my life.I had learned to live the life she had. They had grown so close to me that they now see me as their father, the kind man that their mother was living with.The last few months I had strengthened my business and opened even more companies while I stepped aside for Luca to deal with the illegal stuffs by himself, even though I still interfered with it.The kids requested all my time and Aria was a fucking thorn in the flesh. She was all over me, screaming“daddy” at every given opportunity and making sure that they knew I was her dad.My life routine had been defined to one thing: get up in the morning, get the kids ready for school and take them there.Tessa had offered to take these kids for me, but yet I couldn’t bring myself. She wanted to help, but I made it clear to her that I didn’t want her to work or do nothi
******Tessa*******My heart raced as I stared at the familiar figure whom I had let into the living room.Both Aria and Jaxon were at school, but I didn’t care right now.I had dropped more than a billion texts for Killian, asking him to return home immediately, and he told me that he was going to be back soon.I didn’t want to believe that any of it was true, and I didn’t want to think that I had been betrayed for the second time.I hated myself if this turns out to be real, but it felt like near watching my favourite horror movie begin in real time.It’s been years since I last saw Kayda or even thought of her. I had never let the thought of her cross my mind, and it’s so crazy to know that she was putting up all these big allegations against the same person that I didn’t want to let go of.Killian had taken the kids to school this morning, and he told me he was going to see Zade and check a few things at his company before he returned. When I heard a knock and a car drove in, I tho
*******Tessa*******My mom stood right in front of me, the rage and anger in her eyes was different from every other one that I have seen before, I could tell how mad she was.The silence in the room was totally caused by my atrocities and for the first time I wished I had never let my feelings g
****** Tessa******* Nicolas looked like he would pass out, the look on his face haunted me and even as I tried to act strong my heart was breaking.The only thing I had wrapped around myself was his t shirt on the table as I ran after him, there was no fucking way I was letting him go out in ang
