Owning My Stepfather:A Forbidden Romance Chapter 18
EliasDinner was ‘splendid’ as mother put it.She went on about how great it is for us to be together and even suggested a movie,which I was to search for.“Let's go hunting tomorrow.”My heart stops at Williams random suggestion.I lift my eyes to his but his back was turned to the kitchen.“Hunting…?” Mom asked, sounding hesitant. “That's….”“Weird as hell. Why would you want to kill those poor animals?” I pick up the plates and round the counter to be on his side.“Then mountain climbing will do.” He backed quickly.My heart paced faster. I took in a deep breathe and locked eyes with him. As usual no emotion was written in his face. Was he capable of killing me?“The mountain is not safe.” Mother said,voice calm, uninterested He turns to face her. “We can try camping.*She gasps and clasps her hands together. “That's a wonderful idea. It'll be a team building moment. We'd father everything, help set the tent, light the fire- oh Elias you need to go….no, not right now. Tomorrow,

William VanceI stood in the kitchen, preparing a simple dinner. Claire had retreated to her room hours ago, claiming a migraine, leaving the silence of the house to be filled by the distant, rhythmic lap of the water against the dock. The stairs groaned. I didn't need to look up to know it was him. Elias had a specific way of moving, it was unhurried, the opposite of how I needed things and people to move."Is that... actual food?" Elias asked, leaning against the doorframe. He had traded his pajamas for a pair of black jeans and a worn out hoodie. "I figured you just plugged yourself into a wall to recharge while eating a spreadsheet for dinner.""I am capable of basic domesticity, Elias," I replied,ignoring his sarcasm. "So I've seen," Elias said, wandering into the kitchen. He hopped onto the counter, not the stool, but the actual marble surface and sat there watching me and waiting for a reaction."Sit on the stool, Elias. The counter is for preparation, not your ass."He didn

Elias Thorne I was halfway through a bowl of cereal, scrolling through a text from Leo about his stalking, when my mother drifted into the kitchen looking suspiciously bright-eyed. Behind her was William, already dressed in a charcoal sweater, looking as unreadable as ever. "We’re going to the lake house, Elias," my mother announced, her voice carrying a forced cheerfulness that set my teeth on edge. "Pack a bag. We’re leaving in an hour." I paused with a spoonful of sugary oats halfway to my mouth. I looked at her, then cut my gaze to William. He was leaning against the counter, his eyes meeting mine with a heavy, silent intensity. "A lake house?" I asked, dropping the spoon back into the bowl with a metallic clink. "Is this a vacation or what? Because I have a life, Mom. I have... things. You can't just plan a trip and tell me about It an hour to.." “It wasn't planned….” She drifted off. “Oh please! As if you've ever done anything spontaneously.” "You don't have much to

WilliamThe house at 3:00 AM was deadly quiet.I sat in the kitchen, the marble island cold beneath my palms. I hadn't turned on the lights; the ambient glow of the city through the breakfast nook windows provided enough visibility to see the amber liquid in my glass.Arthur Vane.The name felt like a brand. Elias had found the one thread I’d spent half a decade and millions of dollars trying to bury. I should have been furious. I should have been drafting a nondisclosure agreement that would keep him quiet. Instead, all I could feel was a strange, hollow lightness. The secret was out, and the world hadn't ended.A floorboard creaked in the hallway. I didn't turn."You know, for a man obsessed with security, your situational awareness is surprisingly low when you’re brooding," a voice chirped from the shadows.Elias drifted into the kitchen. He was wearing a pair of oversized flannel pajama pants and a t-shirt that should have been long in the trash. He looked ridiculous. He didn'

Elias Thorne It was 10:30 PM, and the only other living thing on this floor was probably a very depressed spider in the corner of the breakroom.I was slumped in the chair, spinning a pen between my fingers. I’d spent the last hour staring at a merger filing that made as much sense as a set of IKEA instructions written in ancient Sumerian.My phone buzzed against my thigh.Leo: Found something. Check the secure link. Don't open this in the office WiFi. My pulse spiked as I looked through the glass to where William was seated,hunched over his own desk.“He's been visiting a clinic under a pseudonym.” Another text hit me phone before I could finish going through the documents.My eyes skimmed through the data Leo had sent me. It wasn't much, it wasn't even in depth but it was something hidden and that was worth it.I began typing back a reply before I heard him.“You're focused.” His voice came from the door.I didn't jump. I’d spent enough time around William to recognize the specif

Elias I stood in the corner of the elevator, keeping my distance from William who stood perfectly still, his eyes fixed on the digital floor counter. He didn't look at me, but I could feel the cold, focused energy radiating off him."Remember," William said, his voice steady. "The lobby is full of people who will be watching you like they're getting paid for it. Act accordingly.""You’ve said that three times now," I muttered, adjusting my tie for the twentieth time. "I know the script, William. I’m the dedicated student, an eager apprentice. I get it."The elevator chimed, and the doors slid open to the sprawling, glass and marble Vance International. Hundreds of employees moved through the open-plan but the moment William stepped out, the rhythm changed. The air seemed to sharpen."Mr. Vance," a woman in a grey suit said, falling into step beside us without missing a beat. "The Board is in Conference Room A. Barret arrived ten minutes ago. He’s already started the briefing.""Let
