LOGIN“You walked into this place on your own two legs, Cat,” Brandon said, tightening his grip on my jaw until I had no choice but to meet his cold, unforgiving gaze. “But by the time my brother and I are done taking turns ravaging your pretty little cunt, you’ll be crawling out of here on all fours.” *** One house. Two monsters. And a bet that changed everything. I thought I could survive moving into the mansion with my new stepbrothers, Jackson and Brandon. They are breathtakingly gorgeous, dangerous, and they hate me. But I didn't realize how much I hated them back—until they trapped me in my own bedroom and made my body betray every secret I was keeping. I thought the heat between us was real. I thought the way they looked at me meant I was finally seen. I was wrong. I was just a thousand-dollar wager. A game they played to ruin my mother & kick us back to the gutter where they think we belong. They called me "easy." They called me "mid." They laughed about how I leaked for them while they planned to toss me aside. But they made one fatal mistake: they showed me their weakness.

“Those ass thick as fuck.” I spun around, my heart hammering against my ribs, to find Jackson and Brandon looming in my doorway. Jackson leaned his weight against the door frame with a predator’s grace, while Brandon held the door wide open, one hand shoved deep into his denim pocket. Their eyes were raking fire over every inch of my bare skin. “And your snatch is so full. Damn. I want a taste,” Brandon added, a small, dangerous smile curving the corners of his mouth. I wondered how long they’ve been standing there and how much of my naked form they’ve seen. Heat flared under my skin, and it wasn't just embarrassment. I was completely naked, caught in the middle of a frantic search through my wardrobe for a family dinner dress that I didn’t want to be in. “Have you both lost your damn minds?” I snapped. I lunged for the towel on my bed, whipping it around my chest and tucking it tight. “What the fuck is wrong with you two? I’ve told you a thousand times, knock before coming into my room!” Jackson chuckled, a dark, low rumble that seemed to vibrate in the air between us. He pushed off the door frame and stalked toward me. “Your door was wide open, Cat. Seems to me like you wanted us to see.” I let out a bitter, jagged laugh. “In your dreams. What do you want?” Jackson didn't stop until he’d swallowed the space between us. He towered over me, a breathtaking giant making me feel like a cornered mouse. It was infuriating how gorgeous he was, the sharp jawline, the scent of expensive sandalwood and trouble. It was enough to make my brain cells short-circuit and my hatred for this house, and the two of them, momentarily dissolve into a haze of treacherous longing. He looked down at me with an arrogant smirk, his green eyes locking onto mine with hypnotic intensity. “Your mother wants you downstairs. We wouldn't be here if you’d bothered to pick up your phone,” he said, his voice dropping an octave, becoming a private silk thread. The Jackson and Brandon I knew would never come to my room if my mother sent them. They hated her. In their eyes, she was the gold-digger who’d married their father for his millions, a threat to their inheritance. As for me, I was just the collateral damage. They never liked me either; I was part of the problem just by existing in their father's house. “You and I both know that’s not why you’re here,” I said, my breath hitching as he leaned closer. “Then why don’t you tell me why I’m here, Cat?” I hated that name. I fucking hated it. Every time they said it, my chest tightened. It made me feel small. Exposed. Like they’d already decided I was a pet, someone they could corner, toy with, and break if the whim struck them. Jackson’s lips hovered so close to mine that I could almost taste the mint on his breath. His gaze dropped to my mouth for a split second, and he swallowed hard, his throat working as if he were fighting every instinct to claim me right there against the wardrobe. “Your room's a mess,” Brandon's voice cut in, shattering the trance. I hadn't even noticed how near he was until then. He was behind me now, his presence a cold shadow. “Didn’t peg you for the disorganized type. Or are you just that desperate to find something that makes you look like a saint?” “Quit talking nonsense,” I snapped, stepping back from Jackson’s suffocating heat, only to collide with Brandon's solid chest. Now they had me trapped between them, their bodies caging me in like iron bars. Heat radiated from their skin, igniting my nerves until they screamed. My core throbbed insistently, a treacherous rush of wetness slicking my folds and trickling down my inner thighs.The Proposal ZuriI picked Santorini.It took weeks of research, comparing photos, reading reviews, cross-checking flights, but the second I saw pictures of the white houses stacked against blue water, I knew. Somewhere none of us had ever been. Somewhere that belonged to just us, with no history attached to it yet."You outdid yourself," Chris said the moment we walked into the villa, dropping his bag by the door and heading straight for the balcony. "Look at this view."I joined him outside, the sea stretching out below us, the whole sky turning gold as the sun started its slow drop toward the water. Ethan and Audric came out a moment later, both of them going quiet the way people do when something is actually as beautiful as the pictures promised."Okay." Audric wrapped an arm around my shoulders. "This might be the best thing you've ever planned.""High praise." I leaned into him. "We have five days. I intend to do absolutely nothing productive with any of them.""I can work with
ZuriThe stadium was packed with families, everyone holding up phones and balloons, waiting for names to be called. I sat between my parents and Diane and Alexander, a program in my lap I hadn't looked at once because I couldn't stop watching the stage.When they called Audric's name, I stood up without meaning to, clapping so hard my hands stung. Then Ethan. Then Chris. Three caps thrown, three diplomas held up, three boys who had somehow become my entire life walking across that stage one after another.I told myself I wasn't going to cry. I lasted about ten minutes.We found each other outside after the ceremony, the crowd thick with families taking pictures, gowns everywhere, everyone hugging everyone. The second I saw them coming toward me, still in their caps, still grinning like they couldn't believe it either, something broke open in my chest."Hey." Audric reached me first, pulling me into a hug before I even got a word out. "What's wrong?""Nothing's wrong." My voice cracked
ZuriThe Fairview arena was already packed by the time Maya and I found our seats, the ice gleaming under lights bright enough to make my eyes water, the crowd noise a solid wall of sound before either team had even stepped onto the ice."There." Maya pointed toward a section near the boards, a cluster of men in matching jackets holding clipboards, none of them cheering along with the rest of the crowd. "That's got to be them."My stomach twisted. "Scouts.""Scouts." She squeezed my hand. "This is it, huh.""This is it."The team skated out for warmups, and I found Audric immediately, easy now after months of watching him move on ice like it was the one place he never had to think twice about anything. Ethan followed close behind, and Chris brought up the rear, all three of them settling into their usual rhythm before the puck had even dropped.The first period started fast, both teams trading chances, and I found myself gripping the edge of my seat harder than I meant to every time t
ZuriWe ended up outside eventually, sprawled across the grass just beyond the bunker entrance, needing air after everything that had happened inside. The mountain stretched out below us, and the breeze moved slow through the tall grass, bending it in soft waves that caught the last of the afternoon light.Chris lay on one side of me, one arm tucked behind his head. Audric was on the other, close enough that our shoulders touched, both of them quiet in a way that felt easy instead of empty.The bunker door creaked behind us, and Ethan stepped out a moment later, two water bottles in hand."Who's thirsty?"All three of us sat up at once."Me, please." I reached for one before either of them could beat me to it.He handed the second bottle to Audric, who passed it along to Chris after taking a sip, and I drank mine down in long pulls, the cold cutting through the warmth still lingering in my skin from everything before.I took a deep breath once I'd finished, tipping my face up
Rhea“Good.” Brandon’s hands slid down my arms, guiding them behind the chair. “Because you’ve earned it, baby. Choosing him this morning. Walking around with his hands on you all day. Lying to us about Camilla.”He picked up a rope from a table. The rope was soft against my wrists as he worked eff

RHEAThe leather seat was cold against my bare thighs. I’d barely managed to pull my clothes back on, fingers fumbling with buttons and zippers that suddenly seemed impossibly complicated.
