로그인A 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.Ki..ll..Ian, you are standing too close, I breathe out my voice shaking as I try to move from the space between us.His eyes burned into mine and for a moment I wondered what it was I had seen.There was this look on his face that almost sent me ablaze,with the way he stared at me.Killian lets out a breath sliding his hands down his hair as he takes a step back.His jaw tightened “I hate being disobeyed young lady”his tone low but dangerous. He breathed out again and I saw the way he struggled to say the next words. “I wouldn’t let you off the hook easily next time, if I ask you of anything, you better comply” The fear in my heart suddenly disappeared and it’s filled with rage, the nerves he got.He thought he could just walk into my room knowing I’m half naked and then try his hard and cold demeanor on me, not working.“You don’t scare me killlan” I say calmly as I moved away from him and held my towel tightly.His face twisted, the sudden look of amusement appeared bu
I never went to see Killian in his office and when Isabel asked me about it, I totally brushed it off but not without me asking her to let me spend the week with her.Unlike every other girl I have met , she was different, smart, lovely and made her presence enjoyable.Spending the whole week with her gave me that joy I never needed and just like I had predicted Killian never called to ask me why I didn’t see him.He never sent a text to me asking me if everything was okay and somehow he didn’t mind if I spent the next three years away from him.My bags were nearly packed already and I stood outside Isabel’s house as I waited for Nic to arrive.After a long stressful week, I was lecture free from the weekend and my parents were hosting a gala and I knew I would attend.Nic had already told me he was personally going to come pick up and so I texted him Isabel address while I stood out waiting for him.When I saw the familiar car drive in I pushed my head out of the building as
“The decision is final Tessa, I don’t get it, why is it so hard for you to live with him?” my mom's voice cuts sharply from the other end of the phone and I let out a deep breath as I slowly slide my hands on my hair.Mom, I need a fucking apartment, I don’t want to spend one more day with killlan.I don’t get why you can’t hire an apartment out of school for me, it’s not like we are broke or anything.Maybe when your dad sends money for your education then you can consider spending lavishly but for now , your step dad is the one funding all of it and I don’t think I’m going to sit back and watch him waste that amount of money.Killian might be cold and distant but I know he wouldn’t bother you, stop being a brat and never use curse words when talking to me again.Remember your step dad is having a gala for the company and you are expected to be there, whatever beef you have with your brother ends before you come home.The call ended almost immediately and for the first time I wa
“Put me down now” I yelled at Killian as I struggled to get down from his legs.But the more I screamed, the more his grip on me tightened.He didn’t take the route I passed through while coming but instead he took a different direction.I could see his car pack at the far end of the garage, he put me inside the car ignoring my plea and then shut the door not after putting the seat belt around me.My eyes immediately scanned over as I watched him walk to the other side of the car.The moment he gets in he drives off.As I sat there I could feel the drinks begin to have its high effect on me and that wildness that I had been holding all this time was threatening to come out at this point.My hands slowly reached for the seat belt and I removed it.Killian immediately turns to look at me as the displeased look washed all over his face. “Stop the car Killian, stop the goddamn car and let me out” I yelled at him.You’re drunk, Tessa, he snapped, his eyes fixed on the road.
Her face haunted my dreams.The little look of discomfort whenever I got close to her or the way her eyes twitched whenever I got near.When I made that statement to her last night, I didn’t know it was true but seeing her reaction made me realised that it was real.Unlike every other girl I have met tessa was different, the little step sister that I’m supposed to protect.I could clearly remember that night when I heard about the fire and when my dad called asked me to accommodate her I wondered if being close to her was the best decision.Everyday in this house with her felt like pure torture I saw the way her eye fluttered whenever I was close they way her mouth opened and closed with no words coming out. The total look of discomfort and the hatred and mystery in her eyes.Somehow I couldn't help but wonder if being close to her was doing me any good.I had taken this job as a professor for rehabilitation, I just needed something different from the life I knew and he
