Celeste's POV.

"I still can't believe that you have never heard or been to this place at least once in your life", Ryan chuckled as the driver took us on a tour.

"Well, I was a nerdy introvert growing up. I hated going out because of the anxiety that I had to deal with. Still, it's a shame that I'm only visiting such a beautiful place just now."

"Well, it's not too late. We're here now, so allow me to show you what you've been missing out on, Miss. Introvert", he teased.

"Oh please,” I rolled my eyes and laughed.

The whole ride we'd been chatting, but I caught my mind derailing and wandering back to the person Ryan introduced as Cassian's ex.

Did Cassian alwayy have exes as beautiful as divine goddesses?

What went on between them?

Why did they break up?

What was their relationship like?

Was she one of those girls that he ran through and ghosted just because he could, or was he in love with her?

I couldn't help but compare myself to the hot chick, even though it didn't make any sense.

  • My step-brothers; My mate   Do I really want tonight to end?

    Celeste's POV."Hey, are you alright?" His calm but concerned voice brought me back to base. "You look like something is bothering you. You don't like cake?""Oh, no not at all... I mean, yes, I do. I was just thinking about something.""You shouldn't allow anything to bother you when you're with me, Celeste."It'd been a while since I had someone tell me such reassuring words. I sighed and stood up. "Teach me."I looked surprised by my sudden demand."What?""I want you to teach me how to bake. Maybe not this cake, maybe something simpler. I want to learn something that I could make for some that means a lot to me", I said with a sly smile, looking into his eyes.He got the message and the same smile crawled over his lips. "Okay, princess Celeste. Your wish is my command," he said and made a dramatic bow like he was a peasant and I couldn't help but crack up in laughter. "So we have to make sure that our ingredients are complete. We have our flour, butter, egg, sugar, chocolate ext

  • My step-brothers; My mate   A date with you.

    Cassian's POV"The number you dialed is switched off-""Fucking hell,” I flung the phone carelessly to the other side of the bed before I'd crush the phone into pieces out of rage.That was the seventeenth time I'd heard that useless voice give me the most annoying message of my life.It was probably the most stupid decision I made, letting Celeste out of this palace with that bastard.Maybe it was a wrong idea coming here in the first place.At this point, I didn't know if she was in trouble, or if she genuinely wanted to piss me off.The worst part was the fact that I couldn't get out of my room because the last thing I needed was to walk into that predator called Shantel.The evil determination in her eyes when she told me she was here for me told.me that I would get in trouble that's i wouldn't be able to control if I wasn't careful.So the only thing I could do was to pace from one of the room to the other.I forced myself to take a seat on the edge of the bed."Chill, Cassian.

  • My step-brothers; My mate   Provoked

    Cassian's POV.I didn't know whether to find that laughable or whether to be annoyed by that insulting audacity.The nerve of that little woman to think that I was ever going to fancy her in any kind of way.Was that why Celeste insisted that she tag along with us, knowing that this was exclusively a royal activity and not a vacation?I didn't have any hate for Freya, it was just impossible to find something in me for her. She seemed to me like the little sister of my little sister.I had a lot to deal with right now. She wasn't going to be one of them. I got out of the palace and told the driver not to bother starting the car. A run was probably what I needed to clear my mind off this stress. "Cassian, my brother from another mother!"Fucking hell.I didn't need this now.I dragged myself to a halt and forced myself to turn to my one and only archenemy."I thought I was going to see you today. You've been cooked up in your room for so long, I thought you were hiding from something,

    Cassian's's POV."Excuse me?""Did the adrenaline from beating him make residues under your eardrum?" She spat as she got from Ryan's side."What the fuck is wrong with you? How could you do this to someone who has done nothing but be good to us all this while?""Are you actually supporting him right now? Why didn't you shut him up when he called me a pussy? Can't you see the mark that he gave me too? Was he the only one who got hurt? I've done basically everything for you since you came into the family, and you're going to side with someone who has just managed to swoon you once?""I knew it. It's the jealousy.""Excuse you???""You heard me right? You just hate seeing me with anyone apart from you, don't you?"I opened my mouth go speak the first thing that came out of my mouth, but I held my words when I saw that everyone else had ears on the argument. My words would've given away the abominable secret that lay between the both of us."I am your stepbrother. I'm the person you shou

  • My step-brothers; My mate   Manipulation

    Cassian's POV.At this point, I wished that time would pass quicker than normal, so I could find myself back in my pack and not have to worry about all of these shenanigans.The whole family had been a little cold from what happened between Ryan and I yesterday, but I knew they were not that mad when they invited me for dinner and Ryan's mom fed me herself.All my life, Ryan was a thorn in the flesh and the worst part was that I was somehow stuck with him. Both our parents were friends from when they were little, and they kept forcing that bond over to us, even though we were opposites. I hated how he always had to tag along with Lucian and I only to cause trouble and have it blamed on us. I hated how he messed up everything that I managed to build, and acted like that was meant to be.Ryan had a devious character right from teenage years. I remember him intentionally cutting me with a silver knife two days to my fifteenth birthday so I would spend my day in the hospital, just becaus

  • My step-brothers; My mate   Shocking revelation

    Cassian's POV.I looked into her eyes, and for a moment, I saw the eyes that I fell in love with at one point in my life.I saw the pretty girl that I talked about having children with. I saw the eyes that looked at me with so much gratitude when I fucked her. I saw innocence.But It didn't move me.No matter how genuine it was, I just couldn't see myself going over that pain that she caused me. Through the innocence, I still remembered the hurt from the betrayal that she caused me when I saw her arching her back for someone who wasn't even half the man that I was, both in bed and outside the bedroom."I'm sorry, Shantel, but this... This will not work. I don't know what you're trying to do. I don't know if you're being honest or if you have an ulterior motive, and I honestly don't care. My feelings for you died over the course of the year that you were away from me.""Surely, there's a way around this. We can make this if you let me. I was your one true love. There's no way you can l

    Celeste's POV."Take whatever you want to eat!! Drink whatever you want!! Tonight is only for celebration!-"I dragged the crazy man away from the podium to the side of the hall where we were hidden from the rest of the guests."What the fuck, Ryan?!""What's the problem, my future wife?"The way that title made my intestines churn in discomfort almost made me puke."First of all, never call me that, ever again. Especially considering the fact that you never ask for my consent before embarrassing me in front of everyone!""Embarrass? Take a look at the people! They're cheerful and happy that their future king is ready to settle that he loves truly," he reached for my hands, and his warm touch suddenly felt like slimy cement against him. My wolf was doing everything to get me out the space with him, but I had to sort everything out before getting out of here."Ryan, we've only known each other for three days. Less, in fact. How can you ask someone for her hand in marriage in front f yo

    Celeste's POV.This is the stupidest decision you've made in your life, Celeste.This is too risky.Turn your ass around and head the fuck back down.There was nothing my wolf didn't say to me to send me back down the stairs, but legs kept climbing the steps.It felt like my body had been separated from my wolf form. I was well aware of what I was doing, but I didn't know why I was doing it.Barely an hour ago, I was rebuking him for proposing to me in front of everyone, and now I was following him to his bedroom.I didn't know what had gotten over me.He held my hands as we walked into his room, and immediately I shut the door behind me, he turned me around and planted his lips on mine.I gave into the kiss and we began locking lips. I felt his hot breath all over my face as his tongue found its way past my lips. I felt his hands all over my waist and they slowly travelled to my boobs."Fuck... Your nipples are hard for me baby.."He kept touching and kissing, but I had Cassian on m

I didn't know what the hell she was up to, but it wasn't good."What did you just say?""It's Celeste!", She cried even louder with tears of pain flowing down her eyes. "She was the one who did this to our fathers!"I was too astonished to even speak for myself.Cassian sized her up for a very brief moment before turning to one of his trusted men. "Call another ambulance and ask them to come with a therapist. While you're at that, bring in the spiritual-""Cassian!!", Shantel yelled in rage and frustration. "So you don't believe me?!!

    Celeste's POV.I could feel my breath begin to shorten, and I was more terrorized at how unfazed Shantel was, with the sudden chaos that was happening behind that door."Wh... What did you do Shantel?""You have no idea who I am, right?""Who the... Who the fuck are you?""I'm the last person you should've messed with. You should've picked another fight, Celeste.""Cassian isn't meant to be with you, you witch!", I tried to find the same strength I had last night, but I couldn't find it."And who is he meant for? You?"I almost choked on my spit with the sudden question. "Wh... What? Are you insane? Cassian's my-""Stepbrother, I know. At least that's what it's meant to look like. But I know love when I see it...""You're being delusional, Shantel. And your father's dying outside for goodness sake!!""He looks at you the same way he looked at me when he loved me.

    Celeste POV.Fuck!I shouldn't have been that loud!I just couldn't help it. I hated Shantel, but the the venom in her voice when she swore to kill me sent chills down my spine.She was still standing fixed to the ground, but I saw her head pivot all the way to the back, her cold eyes meeting mine immediately."Who's that?!"I immediately turned and hid the behind the door before she would make out who I was.This wouldn't do.I heard footsteps approaching, and without thinking twice, and dashed from the behind the door and raced to my room, looking the door behind me and panting heavily like a rabid dog."Shouldn't you be sleeping by now-""Ahh!!!", I shrieked and almost jumped out of my skin from that voice behind.I turned and I immediately froze to the ground."This..."This couldn't be true.I had to be hallucinating.That was the only logical situation for the horror that my eyes were witnessing right now.My chest began palpitating again.

"You're the reason we're late. Don't you dare pin this on me!!", I warned him.I was done in less than a minute and made to leave, but I felt him grab me from behind. "Tell me you didn't enjoy it", his baritone voice echoed throughout the room and made my knees weak."Lucian, we're late already. We'll miss the plane if we don't-"He pinned me to the wall and closed the distance between us, his warm breath making my nipples shiver.He made me look into his eyes, and I could swear I felt liquid drip down my

    Celeste's POVI shut my eyes to relish the taste of his lips on mine, and I could never get used to the divine feeling. I felt his hands travel and dominate the whole of my back, and I began to run out of breath.We'd had sex all day, so I was quite surprised that I was still horny for him.Before now, I could've sworn that sex wouldn't interest me this much. Lucian just had a way of making me so sexually yearning.It took everything in me to break the kiss, and the look of unfinished achievements he gave me almost broke me.“The driver said fifteen minutes. Go have your bath while I arrange this place and pack up, so we can get moving.”“I have a better idea”, he said with a mischievous smirk on the side of his lips. “Why don't we go shower together?”“Lucian. Go.”He rolled his eyes and put his hands up in the air in surrender. “Whatever you say, mummy.”It was meant to be weird, seeing him walk naked. But the way he swayed his butt made me want to slap it hard!I began arranging t

    Celeste's POV I never knew that I could have such a beautiful view of the evening sun from the comfort of my bed. Naked and bodies intertwined with my stepbrother that I'd somehow fallen for.After sex in the morning - which I never knew was so good - we stayed in bed in all day, talking about the most random things that happened in our lives before now. We had make out sessions that grew into something more sometimes too, and it maybe lazy sex was not all that bad.If I were to be asked, I wouldn't want today to end. If there was some kind of loop I could put us both in, I would do so without thinking twice.I'd never had a moment as real as this in my life. Everything seemed perfect. Resting my head on his heaving chest and that went in an up and manner without our toes intertwined and my fingers drawing romantic blueprints on his chest while his hands caressed my waist and occasionally went down to my soft, raw ass for a little grab and squeeze that made my wolf and I giggle like

  • My step-brothers; My mate   Who own you?

    Celeste's POV.The more he kissed me, the more I wanted him to go deeper. Never in my life had I felt the yearning to open myself up to somebody this badly.He put his hand on my waist to drag me closer to him, and I felt like the warmth from his hand weakened my iced body.I brushed my hard nipples against his broad chest, and I felt my insides get hotter by the passing minute.I was already losing my senses from the kiss when I started to perceive the stinging smell of something burning."Lucian..."I tried to break the kiss but he dragged me even closer. I knew that if I let him, I would completely become incapable of thinking, so I pushed him away a little, even though that took literally all my strength."The sausage and eggs... They're burning", I said as I pointed at the microwave."Let them burn, Celeste", he groaned and went in for another kiss, but I immediately dodged."Do you want us to die while making love in a burning house?""Are you asking for my honest opinion, or d
