Off-limits: My One-Night Stepbrother Chapter 126: It's the end
Ariana’s Pov I woke up slowly, stretching my arms above my head and letting out a tired sigh. For a few seconds I just stared at the ceiling, still half-asleep, before reaching for my phone to check the time.It was almost afternoon.I frowned. I had slept that long? Surprisingly, no one had knocked on my door this time. Usually someone would have woken me by now, asking if I wanted breakfast or reminding me about something. But today the house was strangely quiet.I pushed the covers aside and sat up, rubbing my eyes.I got up, went straight into the bathroom and turned on the shower. I stood under the water just long enough to wash the night off my skin, then stepped out, dried off and pulled on a soft t-shirt and shorts. My hair was still damp when I opened the bedroom door.He was……. thereKian was standing right there, hand raised like he’d been about to knock.He started talking the second he saw me.“Rhys just left. He spoke to me before he left. He said you—”I didn’t let him

ARIANA’S POV I had just walked into the house when I noticed my phone lying on one of the couches in the living room. I guess they got it back. I walked over and picked it up, the screen lighting up in my hand. There were a bunch of missed calls. I frowned. Who the hell was calling me this early? It was barely seven. Before I could check the name properly, the phone started ringing again. I looked at the screen for a second, then picked up. “Hello?” Nothing. I frowned. “Hello?” Then I heard him breathe on the other end. “Your stupid Kian went ahead and messed with my business.” I froze. “What?” “I’m going bankrupt, Ariana.” I pulled the phone away from my ear for a second, staring at the screen. “What the hell are you talking about?” “Don’t play dumb with me. I know he found out.” My brows pulled together. “Found out what?” “That it was me that got the pictures and made the headline some years back.” My stomach dropped. The pictures. The headline. Ever

KIAN’S POVI stayed at the gym for a long while after she left.I didn't know how long exactly. I just sat there in the ring, staring at the empty space where Ariana had been, replaying everything that had happened between us over and over again.She loved me.She hadn't said it tonight, but I knew. I could see it in her eyes before she walked away.And somehow, that made it hurt even more.Eventually, I got up and left.By the time I got home, the house was quiet. I walked straight to my room, opened the door and stepped inside, shutting it behind me.I stood there for a moment, not moving.Then my hand went into my pocket.I pulled out the folded piece of paper Alora had given me.I stared at it for a long while before finally opening it again._____My dear Kian,If you're reading this, then I'm probably no longer there to explain everything to you myself.I don't know what you're feeling right now. Maybe you're angry. Maybe you hate me. Maybe you're wondering why I waited this long
Last Updated : 2026-08-04Off-limits: My One-Night Stepbrother Chapter 123: I loved him too
ARIANA’S POV“I love you.”The words came so quietly I almost thought I’d imagined them.“I love you,” he said again. “I should’ve said it a long time ago.”Everything inside me went still.I stared at him, mind completely blank. Out of everything I thought he might say, it wasn’t those three words. Not now. Not like this.I opened my mouth. Nothing came out.He gave the smallest smile, but it didn’t reach his eyes.“Aren’t you gonna say anything?”I closed my eyes for a second, then looked at him again.“Kian… I can’t.”His brows pulled together.“What do you mean you can’t?”I slowly sat up, putting a little space between us.“You’re engaged.”He didn’t answer.“You’re engaged to Serena.”“I’ll end it.”“It’s not that simple.”“It is.”“No.” I shook my head. “It isn’t.”He reached for my hand. I looked down at it, then back at his face.“Rhys has done nothing except love me,” I said, quieter than I meant to. “He stood by me when I had nobody. He never asked for anything except for m

*Kian’s POV*Family. Right. Like that word meant anything to me five minutes ago. Mrs. Vivienne and Mercer were at the door, all polite smiles and low voices. No cheek kisses, no drawn-out hugs. Just the kind of goodbye adults give when there’s nothing real behind it. Mercer clapped me on the s

_Ariana's pov_“Yhh, I had a day,” I said, turning away from him quickly.I didn’t look at him as I tipped the glass back. The whiskey burned going down, hot and fast, and I didn’t stop until the glass was empty. I slid it back toward the bartender with shaking fingers. “Another one.” The day had
