Pleasured By My Elder Brother Chapter 313: She Went Back To The Studio
"And if something is wrong?""Then I'll call you.""You'll call me?""I'll call you before I do anything stupid," she said. "I promise."He studied her for a long moment. Then he took out his phone and held it up. "Marcus drives you. You carry this one." He pressed a small silver device into her palm. It was an emergency button, no bigger than a coin. "If anything feels wrong, you press it. He'll be there in four minutes.""That's a lot.""It's the minimum." He closed her fingers over it. "Go. Make them sit up straight."She almost laughed. She put the button in her pocket, and then, because the hall was empty, she went up on her toes and kissed his cheek."Thank you for letting me," she said."I didn't let you," he said. "You didn't ask."***The studio was on the second floor of a converted brick building in the garment district, above a fabric wholesaler and a place that sold buttons by the pound. She had worked here for years before Rome, she had come back to it and then gone back
Pleasured By My Elder Brother Chapter 312: Someone was here
The corridor was empty.Moonlight lay in a long, pale stripe down the runner. The doors along the hall were closed. At the far end, the east staircase curved down into darkness. He stood very still, and listened, and she saw the muscle tighten in his jaw.Nothing. Not even a footstep."Damien?" she whispered."No one." He stepped back, but he did not shut the door. He looked down the length of the empty hall, and his eyes narrowed. "Someone was here.""Maybe the house?""The house doesn't stand still."She came to his shoulder and looked out. The corridor lay quiet and perfect, and she told herself that old houses made noises, that her own nerves were stretched thin, that it was nothing. But the hair on her arms had lifted. And there, on the runner, just outside her door, she saw it.A faint, pale scent hung in the air. White tea, and something sweet.She knew it. She'd smelled it twelve hours ago, across a candlelit table, in the soft hush of a long, silk-lined hug.She didn't say it
Pleasured By My Elder Brother Chapter 311: You look at me like I might disappear
"I can." He turned toward her fully, and the lamplight caught the dark, serious line of his eyes. "Because I watched her. I was there almost every day. She wasn't lonely because she was in the wrong house, Lyra. She was lonely because she was surrounded by people who loved her and did not know how to say it. I was one of them."Her eyes stung."You said it in your own way.""I said it badly. For months." His thumb moved across her knuckles. "I gave you instructions. I decided what you could handle. I watched you and told myself that was protection.""Damien.""Let me finish." His voice was low and rough. "I'm not telling you this so you'll forgive me. You already did. I'm telling you so you'll know that the girl in this room was never alone.She looked at him for a long moment.Then she put the cardigan down on the quilt, and said, very softly:"Come here."She didn't wait for him to move. She slid across the quilt and put her hands on his shoulders, and he looked at her with a warine
Pleasured By My Elder Brother Chapter 310: All night I've felt like a guest
She lasted until twenty past midnight.The blue room was beautiful and cold, and it did not smell like anyone. The sheets were crisp, the pillows were perfect, and the wallpaper, a pale pattern of herons, had been chosen by a decorator for guests who were not meant to stay. Lyra lay on her back with her hands folded on her stomach and listened to the house breathe. Pipes ticking. The old clock in the hall downstairs dropping each minute like a coin into a well.Separate wings, her mother had said at the foot of the stairs, with her eyes fixed on the carpet. Just for now. Until I.... And she hadn't finished the sentence, and Damien had said, "Of course, Mom," in the gentle, level voice he used when he refused to fight, and had walked off toward the west corridor without looking back.He hadn't looked back because he knew she would be watching.She turned onto her side. The window threw a long, pale rectangle across the floor. Somewhere down the hall, three doors along, was a room she h
Pleasured By My Elder Brother Chapter 309: Coincidence Again....
It was cold. Her fingers closed around Lyra's, thin and a little rough, a hand that had held hers across a thousand crossings."You don't have to understand tonight," Lyra said."I know.""I'm not asking you to say yes.""I know that too." Isabella gave a short, wet laugh. "Do you know, you have your father's way of being gentle? It looks like firmness until you look closely.""I'll take that.""You should." She wiped her cheek with her free hand. "May I ask you something?""Anything.""Are you happy?" Her eyes searched Lyra's face. "Not tonight. Not because there is cake and a blanket. In Rome, in the apartment with the window. Are you happy?"It was a simple question, and Lyra gave it the courtesy of thought.She thought of the first morning Damien had made coffee in her tiny kitchen and burned the toast. The long, light afternoons in the workshop. The nights when she'd woken from a dream of being lost and found his arm already across her. The small, steady moment in the jet at four
Pleasured By My Elder Brother Chapter 308: I was cruel to you
And she stepped in and hugged her.It was a good hug. Tight, but not too tight. Her cheek pressed briefly to Lyra's shoulder. Her perfume was white tea and something faintly sweet, and nothing about her was wrong. Nothing at all. Lyra stood in it, and the only odd thing, the only thing she could have named if anyone had asked, was that her skin felt cold afterward, in the places where Karla's hands had been.You're tired, she told herself. You've been awake for twenty hours. Of course she's cold. It's winter."You look wonderful," Karla said, stepping back. "Rome agrees with you.""Thank you. You look well.""Oh, I'm surviving." She laughed, light and rueful. "Mama has me doing the studio accounts. I've discovered I hate spreadsheets. But someone has to."Lyra felt something move across her face, and she smoothed it."I'll take that off your hands," she said. "Tomorrow. If you'd like.""Would you?" Karla's eyes shone. "That would be such a relief."She turned then, and kissed Victor o
Pleasured By My Elder Brother Chapter 4: Did you miss me?
"The Mercers. They were good people. Are good people." Karla's eyes filled with fresh tears. "They passed away six months ago. Car accident. That's when I did the DNA test. I had no one left and I just... I needed to know if there was anyone out there who shared my blood."Isabelle made a soft soun
Pleasured By My Elder Brother CHAPTER 3: Homecoming
LYRA POV:The plane touched down at JFK with a jolt that matched the anxiety thrumming through Lyra's veins.She'd barely slept during the flight, her mind spinning with questions her mother refused to answer over the phone. Urgent. Family matter. Need you home. The words had echoed through her hea
Pleasured By My Elder Brother Chapter 2: He's my BROTHER
Her phone screen glowed accusingly in the darkness, her shameful confession staring back at her. With shaking hands, she minimized the app and clutched the phone to her chest, heart hammering so hard she thought it might break through her ribs.Footsteps on the stairs.Light, measured and feminine.
Pleasured By My Elder Brother Chapter 1: The Anonymous Friend
Lyra's fingers trembled as she typed, the blue glow of her phone the only light in her darkened bedroom.LyraNight: I thought about him again today. God, I'm so fucked up.She held her breath, waiting. The three dots appeared almost immediately....her anonymous stranger always responded, no matter
