My stepbrother and his friends want me Chapter 78; The line we cross
EMMACade is a godsend.I watched him from the passenger seat as the city lights slid past the windows, one hand steady on the wheel, the other resting loosely near the gear shift. I had no idea where we were going. He had only told me to dress nice and be ready by seven. The restaurant was small and quiet, tucked on a side street I didn’t recognise. Cade had bought out the entire place. The only other people inside were two members of the security detail positioned discreetly near the entrance and a single server who appeared only when needed. Soft lighting. A table by the window. No other voices, no other eyes.We talked about nothing important and everything that mattered in the small ways.Every time I laughed he watched me with something soft and hungry in his expression, and every time he leaned in to murmur something low and filthy across the table my thighs pressed together under the tablecloth.By the time dessert arrived my stomach hurt from laughing and my panties were un
My stepbrother and his friends want me Chapter 77; The penthouse
EMMAThe confirmation came on a quiet Tuesday morning.Theo was the one who told me, standing in the doorway of the safe-house kitchen with a folder under one arm and that careful, measured look he wore whenever he had news that mattered. The threat assessment had come back clean. We were leaving.I packed the few things I had accumulated in silence. Part of me expected relief. Another part braced for the moment the elevator doors would open onto the same floors where everything had fallen apart. The place where Rhys had looked at me like I was nothing. The drive back into the city felt longer than it was. Cade sat beside me in the back seat, close enough that our shoulders touched whenever the car turned. Theo drove. No one filled the quiet with forced conversation. When the familiar building finally came into view, my stomach tightened, but I kept my face steady.Stepping into the penthouse was like walking into a memory that hadn’t finished forming.The air smelled the same. The
My stepbrother and his friends want me Chapter 76; First kiss
EMMACade sat on the edge of my bed with my feet resting in his lap, working slow, firm circles into the soles with his thumbs.I still wasn’t entirely sure how we’d ended up like this. One minute, I’d been complaining about how restless my legs felt from spending too much time indoors. The next, Cade had looked up from his phone, frowned at me, and told me to put my feet in his lap. When I’d asked him why, he’d simply reached for my ankles and pulled them toward him.“You’re always complaining about your legs hurting,” he’d said. “Let me help.”And that had been that.“You know,” he said, “if you’d spent half as much time walking around the house as you spend complaining about being bored, your legs probably wouldn’t be giving you problems.”I lifted my head from the pillow. “Excuse me?”He grinned without looking up. “You heard me.”“I complain because this house is boring. That’s not my fault.”“Right. The house is boring. The food is boring. The security team is boring. Even the s
My stepbrother and his friends want me Chapter 75; The investigation
RHYS The office in the safe house had started to feel like a second home, though not one I particularly enjoyed spending time in. I had been sitting at the desk for hours, surrounded by cold coffee, discarded reports, and three screens displaying information that seemed determined to lead me nowhere. The encrypted map on the centre screen rotated slowly, red markers scattered across it like open wounds. Each one represented a location Victoria or her father had been connected to in the six months before they disappeared. The blue markers showed the false trails I’d already investigated and ruled out.There were too many of both.I leaned back in my chair and rubbed a hand over my face, trying to ease the dull ache behind my eyes. I’d barely slept in days, and the longer this investigation dragged on, the more impatient I became. Victoria and her father hadn’t simply run away. They had vanished, and there was a difference. A notification flashed across the screen. I opened it, scanne
My stepbrother and his friends want me Chapter 74; Theo’s hands
EMMA I was bored out of my mind.Weeks in the safe house had turned the days into a blur of the same walls, the same hallways, the same careful silence that still lingered even as things between me, Cade, and Theo slowly softened. I hadn’t stepped outside once. The windows showed trees and a stretch of empty land, but it might as well have been a painting. I needed someone to talk to before the restlessness under my skin turned into something uglier.I wandered the house without a real destination until I found a door I hadn’t noticed before. It opened into a small library with shelves packed tight, a single wide window letting in afternoon light, and one armchair angled toward the glass. Theo sat there with a book open in his lap, head slightly bowed, the picture of calm.Something about the quiet peace on his face pulled me in before I could second-guess it.He looked up when my shadow crossed the threshold. Surprise flickered across his features, quickly followed by a softer welco
My stepbrother and his friends want me Chapter 73; Control
CADEI woke to the feeling of being watched.For a second, the chair felt even smaller than usual, the wooden arm digging into my side and my neck stiff from the angle I’d fallen asleep in. I opened my eyes slowly and found Emma still in bed, lying on her side and facing me, her dark hair spread across the pillow. She wasn’t smiling, but she wasn’t frowning either. She was simply watching me with that quiet, unreadable expression she’d worn so often since the warehouse. There was something different in her eyes this morning, though. Something softer. More uncertain.“What’s wrong?” I asked, my voice rough from sleep.She pushed herself up until she was sitting against the headboard, drawing her knees toward herself. A quiet sigh left her before she spoke. “You don’t have to keep doing this, you know. You don’t have to keep sleeping here. I’m okay. The nightmares are almost completely gone too.” Her eyes moved toward the chair. “Your body must hurt so badly. That thing is way too small
