Jason leaned against the wall near the seating area, phone pressed to his ear. From there, he could see part of the nurses station, enough to catch movement and hear faint chatter, but most of it was obscured by counters and passing staff.

“…The competitor is trying to fast-track their prototype. If we don’t adjust, they might beat us to the FDA approval window,” Ethan was saying through the phone.

Jason stayed silent, flipping a gold-plated lighter between his fingers. He’d been ignoring the

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    No Longer The Girl Who Runs

    Anna's gaze snapped to the blonde woman, her brows furrowing. Darling? Did they know each other? Her eyes returned to Jason to find him still looking at her. Her lips twitched and she took a step forward; the woman had to be a colleague or one of those women who flirted with powerful men, hoping something would stick.No sooner had she taken her first step, she froze in her tracks. The blonde woman hugged Jason. His hand settled at the small of her back and… stayed there, pressing her closer as she drew back. Anna's lips parted, watching as the woman's fingers curled at his lapel. Jason leaned into her, murmured something low only she could hear, and she blushed, flashing him a coy smile. This… what was going on? Anna stood rooted to the ground, staring. Were her eyes playing tricks on her right now? Or was this someone he was clearly familiar with?She stepped toward them as they pulled apart. “Jason?” She called. His gaze lifted to her, swept over her, stayed for a second—

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Once Again, With Feeling

    Anna sat still in the car, her fingers twisting in her lap, eyes staring ahead, seeing nothing. She startled, eyes refocusing, as the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class glided to a stop suddenly. “What's wrong?” She asked, looking out the window. A black Range Rover's heavy presence loomed just ahead of the Maybach, unapologetically tall and loud. “Just a driver pulling in aggressively,” Ethan answered. “Are you okay?”Anna nodded without taking her eyes off the Range Rover. Ethan honked, signaling the Range Rover to go ahead. Her eyes followed it as it jerked forward. Only then did she notice the hotel rising ahead of them.Astoria. It stood tall and elegant in the night, almost unreal. She'd only heard of it and seen it in magazines, the news and online. Leah had also mentioned it a couple times, suggesting they take a “girl's vacay” there—close enough so she, Anna, wouldn't freak out about work. Far and luxurious enough to feel like a vacation. They'd never made it. Well, because of

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    All Eyes On Him

    “Hey there, Mr. Hot Billionaire.” Jason's eyes brightened the second he saw the face behind him. He stood immediately. “The fuck, bro.” He stepped forward, arms out wide. “Cole,” he called as they hugged, surprise ringing in his tone.They slapped backs in that exaggerated, brotherly way men do, Cole chuckling as he pulled back and squeezed Jason's shoulders. “The Knight in shining armor,” he teased. “Or rather, Mr. Hot Billionaire.” Jason made a face. “You heard that shit?” Cole laughed, slapping his arm. “I could totally imagine you making that face, thinking, ‘what patronizing bullshit.’” “More like get me that fool's tongue on a platter,” Jason scoffed. “Why not the head?” Cole swiped a flute from Jason's table, raising an amused brow at him. “Of what use is a brain-dead head?” Cole snorted behind his flute, as Jason went on, “Out of the abundance of the brain, the tongue speaketh.” “I can swear that's not how it's said,” Cole said, still laughing. “Damn, man. I've missed

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    The Guest Of Honor

    The door to the Rolls-Royce Ghost backseat pulled open and Jason stepped out, slipping a hand into his pocket as he did. His security team filed out from the two black SUVs the Rolls Royce was sandwiched between, moving to positions flanking the entrance, eyes scanning. He didn't need to look, still his glance lifted as the security agent who had opened the door stepped back to stand discreetly behind him. The Astoria Grand Ballroom. A prestigious luxury hotel in Austin. He’d booked it exclusively for the reunion—no other events, no public access, nothing to interfere. It was perfect for tonight's purpose. A parallel to that night years ago; the school dance, exclusive to students and a few supervisory teachers, sealed off, watched. “Wait—is that Jason Knight?” “From Knight innovations?” “He actually came?” “Should we go and introduce ourselves?” Jason pretended not to hear the women nor see the stares and smiles sent his way. He didn't recognize the faces and had no interes

    The conference room smelled faintly of disinfectant and burnt coffee. Sterile floors, tired faces, institutional air. The blinds were half drawn, muting the afternoon light. Anna took the chair she’d been assigned, back straight, hands folded in her lap. It was her first time being a doctor under review. Just like Pierce had warned her, the peer review notice had arrived the very next day. It was scheduled for the weekend—Saturday—the same day as the event she'd agreed to attend with Jason. She’d emailed Rachel right after, letting her know she couldn't make it—prior engagement she'd said. She'd kept it short, snappy, as lukewarm as Rachel's own message had been. There was no reply. It was better that way. She spent the rest of the week trying not to overthink—focusing on work, prepping for the review, beating back the guilt, replying “too busy” to calls and texts. Jason hadn't checked in through the week, not since they discussed the event, and for the first time, it didn't bo

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Borrowed Heat

    Anna's back hit the wall beside the console table with a low thud. A groan left her lips. Jason didn't stop. He broke the kiss and dragged the t-shirt over her head. Her movements were slow, weighted, almost resistant—but when he pulled her naked body back into his arms, she clung to him anyway. He kissed her once more, bit her lower lip as he pulled away. The low hiss sent a thread of satisfaction through him. He stripped quickly, flinging his clothes aside. Anna leaned against the wall, watching him with shadowed eyes that seemed to hold secrets he would never be privy to. Her hands slid up his chest, tentative, learning, and something in him locked. He caught her wrists and pushed them above her without looking at her, the motion sharp enough to feel corrective. He didn’t need her touching him—didn’t want the slow, searching familiarity of it. Touch made things mutual. It suggested permission, invitation, a claim. This wasn’t that. He’d let her once before, and that had been a
