Abigail's pov

The moment I step into the mansion, it feels like the walls are closing in on me.

My emotions are a mess, swirling with anger, fear, and something I can't quite name.

I replay the scene over and over in my mind-Nathan's taunts, Luca's fury, and my helplessness.

My hands still tremble as I grip the strap of my bag, my knuckles white.

I wander through the empty halls, the soft echo of my footsteps the only sound I hear.

I need air, space, something to clear my head.

  • Rebel Attraction (In Love With My Stepbrother)   Ninety eight: The Painful Distance

    Nathan I gave enough distance as I walk behind her secretly.My hands were deeply into my pockets while I bow my head a little.School periods were over and she was on her way back to the car. I just want to ensure that Gajeel wasn't trailing her.She was close to the car, but then Luca stops her for a chat.I rolled my eyes.“Why do he keeps trying when she's clearly not interested?” I say, giving a frown.If not that he is on a wheelchair, I feel like going there and giving him a punch on the chin. I shouldn't.I'm the reason he is in that state anyway. If I wasn't too reckless in driving.I wonder why he hasn't reported it yet. He doesn't seem to even take it seriously, even when he knows it's me.Sometimes, I think I prefer him this way. He acts to clumsy around Abigail.Wait a sec...He's using this as a yardstick to get closer to Abigail, isn't he?I can't believe that heck!I grin while tightening my fist. But I stand still.I can't move even though I want to, because it'll o

  • Rebel Attraction (In Love With My Stepbrother)   Ninety seven: The Threat

    Nathan's POV How did he escape the police?Are Aiden and Gray also out or in the police custody?I thought I played videogame with Aiden once?He definitely is not in custody. Or could he?I'm totally confuse and the one person who can answer my question, wouldn't listen to me any longer.He thinks I caused all the trouble and got them caught.Actually, he blames me for involving Abigail in it, which I didn't.Her curiosity got her there.I rub my face hard, my eyes burning.If Gajeel needs that money, it means he certainly plans to run away.I wonder if the police are after him. I think he escaped from them, giving the way he's keeping a low profile.He was the one who introduced the rest of us to the operations of the warehouse in the first place.He has become a threat anyway and I must be cautious of him.If he can publicize a video of Abigail claiming to leave with me, then he's going to do more than just that.I should be vigilant.I try to warn Abigail that he is around the co

  • Rebel Attraction (In Love With My Stepbrother)   Ninety six: The Warning

    Nathan's POVShe sterns leaning back against the table. Her eyes aren't exactly looking at me.She's still angry with me and she has all right to. I left her alone for days.“I came to warn you to be careful. I heard Gajeel might be in school.”She laughs sarcastically, “What does Gajeel being in school have to do with me huh?” She rants.“Keep it down. You don't want to be caught here.” I said in a low tone.“You're so unbelievable Nathan.” She snarled, pulling back from the table.“I just want you to be safe Abigail.” I said moving closer.“He's your friend isn't he? How's been around you any better?” Her angry tone just rose up, even when I advised she keeps it down.“I know you're angry with me, but please understand that whatever I did, I had to do it.”“Angry? Angry is just an understatement, I'm mad at you!” She threw her finger at my chest and push me gently.It's obvious I can't console her just yet. I should give her time I guess.She stands up to leave and then I hold her h

  • Rebel Attraction (In Love With My Stepbrother)   Ninety five: The Post II

    Abigail's POV“You must have seen the post haven't you?” Luca snapped. His countenance looked dull.I nodded forward to reply a 'yes' and clutch tight to my phone.“Who would do such a thing?” he asked me, my face looking tense as my mind floods with the possibility of the post's effects.Nathan in it somehow makes it worse. If it was only Luca and I in that video discussing about something else, I wouldn't be as bothered as I am right now.“They're a lot of people who could do something like this Luca. I just don't know who to suspect.” I replied abruptly. “I have to go to class luca.” She added and began to walk out.“But---we're in the same class.” Luca's voice sounds faint behind me.I paced quickly, but not as quiet as I wanted to be, my shoes made clicking sounds against the tiles floor.As I enter the class, I could see the look on everyone's faces.If I haven't seen the post, I'd have said they only stared that way because I was away for awhile. But who cares?They probably st

  • Rebel Attraction (In Love With My Stepbrother)   Ninety four: The Post

    Abigail's POVI try my best to hide my shock, but I guess I exclaimed before I realized it.He was upon a wheelchair, heading my direction.He wave at me as he got near and greeted, “hi!”“Luca---” I muttered, wondering how he got upon a wheelchair.“Abigail---Abigail!” Luca's voice snapped me out of my thought.“Oh---hi!” I wave back. I definitely didn't mean to sound excited, looking at his current condition. It was however a fake smile.And at the same time, I didn't want to look like I was pitying his condition. “What happened to you Luca?” I asked.“Uh---” he paused looking sad. “It was an accident.” He snapped.“I'm so sorry luca.” I muttered. I couldn't control my emotions. I didn't mean to show them in front of him. I know he wouldn't want to be pitied.“Come on Abigail, I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me. The therapist said I'll probably be back on my feet in a week or two.” He voice carries a note of fear, like he doubts it.“Oh! That's good news. Why didn't you sta

  • Rebel Attraction (In Love With My Stepbrother)   Ninety three: Back To School

    Abigail The bed felt unbearable to sleep on all night.I was at least glad the sun came up in the morning.I heave a sigh of relief as I get out of bed. Making a little stretch, I strengthened my bones.Mom usually likes to do it and then she'll perform some yoga.It helps in strengthening the bones, so she said.Well, I think the real thing that needs strengthening is my heart.I look at the alarm clock and it hasn't rang yet. It only showed I woke up early than usual.My eyes feel weak.I should go get ready for school.The principal emailed that we were now allowed to return to school.I wonder if it was Ricky who handled that also.Does it mean mom knows?No. I don't think so.If she does, she should have called to talk about it.Is Ricky keeping it a secret.I always know he is a good man.But what I can't seem to imagine is how he has a dumb son like Nathan?Ugh! Just spitting out his name pisses me off.Trying so hard to defend himself when the pieces are all lying there.Cla
