ONE NIGHT WITH MY HUSBAND’S BROTHER Found a lead
In three weeks after moving into a three bedroom apartment in Greensville, which Uncle Maverick helped them get, Mackenzie had been busy with trying to kick start her career as a designer. After all, she, Charlotte and Felicity have been living off their savings from North Dakota.They could not depend on that for much longer.Uncle Maverick has been a great help so far. Because their apartment lied outside the heart of Greensville, and Mackenzie was busy with the kids and her works at the back of the house, he helped her drop her samples at many of the huge hotels around the city searching for new designers.It worked because he lived right there in the center of Greensville.But so far, none of the hotels had gotten back to her.It was a lot of work to take care of two growing and energetic kids while trying to organize their lives, and Mackenzie could definitely not afford to hire a babysitter. She had barely even been able to get them into preschool, pay their tuition and other ne
ONE NIGHT WITH MY HUSBAND’S BROTHER Too good to be true
Mackenzie’s phone burst out ringing on the kitchen counter. She straightened up from the dishes she was washing and wiped her hands on a towel before reaching for it.It was Uncle Maverick calling.She answered, “Hello, Uncle Maverick. How’s it going?”“You will not believe what just happened, Kenzie.” His excited voice came over the phone. “I’ve got amazing news!”Mackenzie moved away from the counter, clutching the phone tighter. “What happened?”Uncle Maverick cleared his throat, and said in a levelled voice. “One of the hotels got back to me. They are interested in buying your design and hiring you as their major designer, Mackenzie!”Her mouth dropped in surprise. For a moment she was speechless, filled with a mixture of shock, disbelief and unexplainable happiness. When she finally got her voice back, she exclaimed, “W-what?” She let out a big breath. “Wait a minute, Uncle Maverick, did I just hear you right?!”He was laughing on the other end of the phone. “I mean every word I
ONE NIGHT WITH MY HUSBAND’S BROTHER From the darkness
Mackenzie was frozen still from that voice. It was still ringing in her head. It’s warm texture, it’s masculine timbre. It’s confident accent that could only belong to one person. And she was strongly hoping, that she was wrong.The projector went off all of a sudden, leaving the room pitch dark.Her heart stopped. In the next split second, the lights came on, fully illuminating the person in front of her. Her eyes focused on the figure of the CEO, with her stomach twisting in dread.Chase Axford.It was unmistakable. Those sea blue eyes gazed at her with the intensity of stormy oceans. His jet black hair was perfectly tousled, silky and soft like it was made to be grabbed. A tiny tremor shook her shoulders as her eyes raked down that handsome face of his.That face she thought she would never see again.Like an Adonis of the night, his tall, big and manly body was encased in a jet black suit. Those dark clothes accentuated the ripped perfection that lay beneath, reminding her of it’s
ONE NIGHT WITH MY HUSBAND’S BROTHER Mine and mine again
Those words felt like boulders in her mind the moment Chase pointed them out. But that meant nothing to her. Even if the world came crashing down, she would never let herself be involved with the Axfords ever again!“I don’t care!” She snapped. “I’ll pay you that fine, even if I have to sell everything I own! I’ll terminate this contract even if I have to sell myself! And every valuable organ in my body! I would gladly do it!”Her voice held the defensive tone of a cornered woman who would do anything to stay away from a threat.Chase raked his gaze over her body, noting how beautiful she was, even when she was sending him death glares and resisting him with every fiber of strength in her body. That only made her more attractive to him.More damn desirable.Her pretty, creamy complexion was glowing. Her hazel eyes were brighter, framed by dark eyelashes that batted seductively each time she blinked. Her dark hair fell down her back in thick, shiny curls that looked perfect for Chase t
ONE NIGHT WITH MY HUSBAND’S BROTHER A God-Damned Rebel
For a long moment into the drive, Mackenzie was still in a daze over what just happened a couple of moments ago. It was all so fast, that her shocked mind had not had enough time to register it all.The intense and shocking meeting with Chase Axford. Him kissing her. Her nearly running into a busy highway. Him saving her. His fierce, possessive words.And now she was sitting in the passenger seat of his Lamborghini. It was difficult to make sense of it all.But now, she was snapping out of her breathless daze, and suddenly realized she couldn’t let Chase drive her home. She thought about her kids, and panic struck her.No way. He definitely should not ever know of their existence.Sitting upright in her seat, she brushed her hair back a she looked out the tinted windows. Her heart jumped in anxiety. They were already entering the suburban parts of Greensville where she lived.Triggering what-ifs bombarded her thoughts. What if her kids were on their way back from school, only to meet
ONE NIGHT WITH MY HUSBAND’S BROTHER A perfect family
Chase walked into his office, to see Selene perched against his desk, with her legs crossed provocatively in her scandalously short dress.He paused, pinning her down with a flat look. He was definitely not amused by her presence here. She had ignored the pristine couches decked out in one side of the large office, and the visitor chairs in front of his desk as well.Making herself comfortable right on his desk, with her ass pressing on some important documents.“What are you doing in my office, Selene? You are not allowed in here.” Chase said.“Your staff, especially that assistant of yours, know better than to try to stop me from coming in here, Chase.” Selene responded haughtily, flinging a couple of papers at his feet.He did not give her the satisfaction of looking down at the papers. He already knew they were her copy of the divorce papers.She leisurely moved her eyes to meet his, then she uncurled her legs and got off his desk. Her skyscraper heels clicked as she took a few st
ONE NIGHT WITH MY HUSBAND’S BROTHER The Order
As Charlotte went silent after hearing Mackenzie’s words, Felicity stepped out of the kitchen, already carrying the kids’ lunch on a tray. She was just about to feed them and prep them for their afternoon nap. When she saw Mackenzie, she smiled, “You’re back.”“Yes.” Mackenzie said solemnly, then she looked at both of them. “There’s going to be a change of plans concerning Calista and Cameron’s schooling. They won’t be going to school for now, we can take turns teaching them, since they’re just four years old. Their school work is pretty easy at this stage.”“What?” Felicity and Charlotte both echoed in confusion. Mackenzie sighed. “I know, but this is for the best, trust me. And it’s only temporary. I have experience with teaching, so I can do it. Charlotte, you can also help out when I’m not around to teach them.”Her paranoia had been triggered with full force after her meeting with Chase Axford. She could not stop thinking of how easy for her to never see, or gave access to her
ONE NIGHT WITH MY HUSBAND’S BROTHER Forbidden memory
The gloom of defeat followed Mackenzie all the way back home like lead on her shoulders. Not just defeat, but utter devastation.It was just cruel.Dashing all of her hopes so carelessly. She had gone there confident and sure she would get the job. All of a sudden, they chose someone else? She didn’t even see any other candidate there except her. So how?With all those painful questions banging around in her mind, she walked closer to her apartment door. But stopped when her eyes fell on the bouquet of Pink Camilla flowers propped right in front of the apartment.What?That stranger had traced her house address here in Greensville as well? All the flowers they sent back in North Dakota was not enough?Anger erupted inside Mackenzie and she grabbed the flowers, smashing it against the wall with so much force. An angry sound left her as she flung her bag away to smash the flowers around better.All the frustrations and stress she had kept bottled in, all this time were all violently com
