Rival's Marriage Agreement 167
Cameron’s POVThe words followed me through the silence.I stared at Adrian without understanding anything.Project Heir sounded more terrifying than expected.Brandon remained beside me without saying anything.His hand stayed wrapped around mine tightly.“You were the reason it existed,” Adrian repeated.I swallowed hard afterward.“That doesn’t make any sense.”Adrian placed the file on the desk.“It will.”I immediately frowned afterward.“Everyone keeps saying that tonight.”Brandon laughed quietly beside me.“At least you’re consistent.”I looked toward him afterward.“This isn’t funny.”“I know.”“You’re smiling.”“I’m nervous.”“You smile when you’re nervous?”“Apparently.”I shook my head afterward.“You’re impossible.”“And you’re still talking to me.”I almost smiled afterward.Then Adrian cleared his throat.“Can we focus?”Brandon immediately looked offended.“I was helping.”“You were flirting.”“Those things can coexist.”I laughed quietly afterward.Even Ethan smiled s

Cameron’s POVThe words stayed between us afterward.Nobody seemed brave enough to answer them.I stared directly at Brandon afterward.He looked completely terrified by her accusation.“Brandon?” I whispered quietly afterward.He immediately shook his head.“No, Cameron.”My sister stepped closer toward me.“He was there that night.”“I know he was there.”“You don’t know everything.”Brandon looked toward her afterward.“Stop lying to him.”She frowned immediately afterward.“I’m not lying.”“Then tell him the truth.”“I am trying.”I raised my hand between them.“Enough.”Both of them immediately stopped speaking.I looked toward my sister afterward.“Explain exactly what you mean.”She swallowed hard afterward.“Brandon didn’t erase your memories.”My heart immediately dropped afterward.“Then why did you say that?”“Because he made you forget.”I stared at Brandon afterward.“How?”He looked down quietly afterward.“I didn’t mean to.”That answer hurt more than anything.I steppe

Cameron’s POVFor several seconds, I couldn’t breathe properly.My fingers remained frozen against the door.Brandon stood behind me, completely silent too.Nobody expected that voice from inside there.My grandfather was dead.At least, that’s what everyone told me.“You heard him too?” Brandon whispered softly.I nodded slowly without turning around afterward.“That was his voice.”Ethan stepped closer behind us.“It can’t be him.”I swallowed hard afterward.“Apparently, tonight doesn’t care about logic.”Brandon gave a nervous little laugh.“That’s becoming our biggest problem.”I almost laughed despite everything happening.Then the voice came again.“Cameron, open the door.”I immediately stepped backward.“No.”Silence followed from inside afterward.Then my grandfather laughed quietly.“You always were stubborn.”My stomach twisted immediately afterward.I remembered that laugh.I remembered sitting beside him as a child.He used to tell terrible jokes.I used to laugh anyway.

Cameron’s POVFor a moment, nobody breathed inside that room.I stared at Ethan, completely unable to speak.He looked frightened, unlike the brother I remembered.My mother stood beside him, crying silently.Brandon tightened his grip around my hand.“Ethan,” I whispered, barely recognizing my voice.He looked directly at me afterward.“Don’t trust her.”My mother immediately shook her head.“Cameron, please listen to me.”Ethan stepped between us both afterward.“She lied to you.”My mother looked at him sadly.“I was trying to protect him.”“You always say that,” Ethan replied angrily.I looked between them afterward.“Someone needs to start explaining everything.”Nobody answered immediately.I sighed heavily afterward.“Seriously, I’m running out of patience.”Brandon glanced at me afterward.“That’s probably dangerous.”“For everyone.”He smiled slightly despite everything happening.I almost smiled too.Almost.Then Ethan spoke again quietly.“Mum started the fire.”My mother c

Cameron’s POVAmelia’s scream echoed through the hospital again.My heart immediately jumped against my chest.I ran upstairs without thinking about anything.Brandon followed closely behind me afterward.“Cameron, wait!” my uncle shouted downstairs.I ignored him completely afterward.Amelia screamed again somewhere ahead.“Cameron!”“I’m coming!” I shouted back immediately.We reached the third floor again.The hallway looked completely different somehow.Several doors stood open along both sides.But room 317 was completely gone.I stopped immediately afterward.“Where is it?”Brandon looked around the hallway afterward.“It was right here.”“I know.”We walked slowly toward the empty wall.There wasn’t even a doorway anymore.Then Amelia’s voice came again.“Cameron, please!”Her voice sounded closer this time.I placed my palm against the wall.Something vibrated underneath my fingers.Brandon immediately noticed the movement.“Do you feel that?”“Yes.”I pressed harder against t

Cameron’s POVNobody spoke after Ethan revealed his twin.I stared at the stranger completely speechless.He looked almost exactly like Ethan.Even his smile carried the same familiarity.But something about him felt different.Something cold sat behind those familiar eyes.Brandon moved slightly closer beside me.His fingers slipped between mine again.“Cameron, stay close,” he whispered quietly.I nodded without taking my eyes away.The stranger smiled wider afterward.“You always listened to him.”I frowned immediately afterward.“Do I know you?”He laughed softly afterward.“You knew me better than anyone.”Ethan immediately stepped forward.“Don’t listen to him.”The stranger’s expression changed instantly.“You still hate me.”“I should hate you.”“But you don’t.”Ethan’s jaw tightened afterward.“I remember what you did.”The stranger smiled bitterly afterward.“Then you remember everything.”I looked between them both afterward.“What exactly did he do?”Ethan looked toward me

Cameron’s POVI didn’t realize I’d stopped breathing until Brandon said my name for the third time.“Cameron… hey… why do you look like you just saw a ghost, what happened?”My hand was still wrapped around my phone so tight my fingers hurt, like if I loosened my grip even a little the message woul
Rival's Marriage Agreement 82
Cameron’s POVBy the time we got to campus, it felt like the entire world knew something we didn’t.Nothing was actually different.The sky was still annoyingly bright, people were still laughing too loud outside the student center, someone was skateboarding like they were in a coming-of-age movie,
Rival's Marriage Agreement 81
Got you — we’re slowing the pacing a bit and letting everything breathe and ache, with longer sentences, fuller dialogue, less choppy back-and-forth, more emotional weight and suspense creeping in. Think: dread, late-night talking, soft touches, then the threat tightening. Still teen Cameron’s POV
Rival's Marriage Agreement 80
Cameron’s POVThe adrenaline didn’t leave.That was the worst part.Even after Peter disappeared down the street with that busted ego and stupid limp-walk, even after the sidewalk went quiet again, my heart was still slamming against my ribs like it was trying to escape my body.My hands wouldn’t s
