Rejected By Him; Claimed By His Crazy Brother Chapter 60
RONAN POVThe sun hadn’t climbed yet. The light was pale and gray, like it was afraid to touch the world too soon.I watched her sleep.Ixora’s breath rose and fell in the kind of rhythm you only find in those rare, untouchable moments. Her face turned slightly toward the window, one arm flung carelessly over the blanket like she didn’t give a damn what the world expected of her. There was something about watching someone sleep, not in that obsessive, twisted way but in the kind of way where you’re terrified the world might steal them the second you look away.My knuckles still ached.Chris’s voice still rang in my skull like a bad memory. That smug, scraping tone. The sharp twist in his grin, the kind that didn’t belong to love anymore if it ever did. I should’ve ended it. Should’ve finished him the way I was built to. But I didn’t. Maybe because she still saw the good in me. Maybe because for once, I wanted to be worthy of that.Or maybe I was just tired.Tired of blood.Tired of be

RONAN POVThe sun wasn’t up yet. The light filtering in was pale, lazy, undecided. It cast everything in the kind of hush only early mornings knew how to hold. The kind that made even breathing feel loud.Ixora lay beside me, her body curled slightly away but not far enough to be distant. She was still holding that scarf. Chris’s scarf. The red one. Folded too neatly, like she was trying to trap its history inside perfect corners. Like something so broken could be tamed if only it sat still enough.I hadn’t slept.Not even for a minute.The hours had crawled by, thick with thought. My mind a looping reel of every second, every word, every glance that passed between him and her. Every mistake I made by not getting there faster. By not knowing.By letting her walk into something I should have seen coming.Chris.I hated the sound of his name in my head. It didn’t feel like a person anymore. Just a sickness that spread. Something that latched onto whatever light was left in the room

RONAN POVThe walk back was longer than it should’ve been.The sun had already started to dip low in the sky, slipping behind the trees with a quiet kind of finality. It painted everything in gold and bruised purple, like dusk had something to say but didn’t know how to say it. The wind was sharp, slicing through the trees and against my skin like it had a message for me. Like it had grown tired of watching me lose her, piece by piece, and wanted to remind me just how much time I had already wasted.Every step felt heavier than the last. Like the ground wanted to keep me from reaching her. Like even the forest had started picking sides.By the time I reached the porch, my hands were fists in my coat pockets. I didn’t know if I was trying to hold the cold in or keep something darker from spilling out. Regret maybe. Rage. Guilt. I didn’t know what I was walking into, only that it was probably more than I deserved.I don’t know what I expected when I opened the front door.Silence, maybe

RONAN POV There was a tightness I couldn’t shake.Not the physical kind. Not something I could stretch out or bleed away. This one sat in my chest, right under the bone, where instinct lived. Where memory scraped raw.Ixora had been quieter since her talk with Flora. She didn’t say much after she came back in — just went straight to bed without finishing her tea. She tried to hide it, but I saw the weight in her shoulders. The kind of heaviness that didn’t come from a fight but from remembering why you had to keep fighting.I thought maybe sleep would help her. That maybe tonight, for once, the ghosts would leave her alone.I was wrong.She came back down just after sunset. No shoes. Eyes a little too wide. And in her hand — a scarf.I knew it before she said a word. That scarf didn’t belong to this moment. It was from another time. One she hadn’t spoken of in a long while. Her fingers were clenched around it like it might vanish if she let go.She held it out to me. Said nothing.I

IXORA POVThe air had that hush again.The kind that comes right before something breaks. Not loud. Not obvious. The kind of hush that slips under doorframes and curls around your ankles. The kind that waits.I didn’t know what pulled me out of the house.Maybe it was the sun slipping too fast behind the trees or the silence pressing too tightly against the windows. Maybe it was the stillness in the living room, too heavy to breathe in. Or maybe it was just me tired of waiting for the world to make sense, tired of the way my own name sounded inside this house when no one else said it.I needed to move. To feel the ground underneath me. To remind myself that I was still here, still whole, even if everything else was starting to come undone.So I walked.My boots sank a little with each step. The earth was still soft from the morning rain, and the scent of pine clung to everything wet and sharp, like memory. I passed the training grounds. Grass flattened in places where Ronan had

CHRIS POVThe house was too quiet.Not the kind of quiet that brings peace, the other kind. The hollow kind. The kind that made every breath echo off walls that didn’t want me anymore. I hadn’t been here in weeks. Maybe months. Time felt strange now, like it warped in my hands, slipping between my fingers whenever I tried to hold onto it. The scent of the house was stale, like forgotten clothes left too long in a closed suitcase. The kind of smell that clings to memories you never asked to keep.Nothing moved. No sound. No breeze. Just me and the past, sitting shoulder to shoulder like two ghosts in the same skin.There was a picture still on the side table.Me and her.Ixora’s smile was soft that day. I remembered it without effort. Like it had been waiting in some back room of my mind all this time. She’d braided her hair and used that stupid little butterfly clip I bought her from a roadside stand. Purple. Plastic. It had snapped before nightfall, and yet she’d worn it like it w
