Jason sat stark naked, legs wide and arms draped along the back of a deep-seated lounge sofa in Astoria’s penthouse. Elodie, clad in nothing but a flimsy robe tied loosely around her waist, poured him a glass of whiskey—no ice, no water, exactly as he'd asked—then swayed toward the sofa.

She handed him the glass as she settled into the crook of his arm. Undoing the tie of her robe, she let it slip from her shoulder, the fabric pooling loosely at her waist.

Jason took a measured sip of the whi

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Too Convenient

    Anna's brows furrowed as she watched the interns speak, her body reacting before her mind could. Her stomach knotted, shoulders stiffening. Emotions shot through her, too fast to grasp. Only one thought surfaced: They shouldn't be doing that. She shifted uncomfortably on the floor, feeling the heat raise to her face at their praise. Leah let out a low whistle, her gaze shifting from the screen to her. “They must really adore you,” she whispered, almost reverently, nudging Anna slightly. Anna's lips stretched tightly, then snapped back. They were making her out to be a saint—she wasn't. She straightened as Sierra began to speak, her eyes locked on the screen unblinkingly. For the slightest moment, her lips tugged as her own words were echoed back to her. Until Sierra said the words that erased that fleeting smile. “And that's what she gave me… room to grow. To learn.” Anna tensed, realizing where she was taking this. She wanted to scream for her to stop. She could see the pain,

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Room To Grow

    Jason walked around the desk, sank into the seat and pressed play. Silence settled over the office, thick and expectant. The young doctors introduced themselves—the interns Anna had mentioned—before launching into their experience. Apparently they were on night duty and had sneaked off to an empty nurses station to record the video. Jason's eyes scanned their faces, reading the tension in their expressions, the restless energy in their movements. They were chaotic—talking over each other, rambling—which made it clear this was impulsive. Anna had made them feel comfortable enough to ask questions, to admit when they didn't know. And to keep going anyway. “She took us under her wing.” “Chief is selfless. She takes on shifts when others have emergencies.” “Remember when she'd pull a thirty-six-hour shift without breaking a sweat?” Jason's gaze zeroed in on the young doctor—Sierra, she'd introduced horse as—the one from the viral clip as others kept talking. She had been quiet sin

    It was dark by the time Anna dragged herself out of bed and into the bathroom. She filled the tub with warm water, threw in her oils and soap—and sank into it until only her face broke the surface. Exhausted, she lay there, unmoving, until the water turned cold. Then she stepped out and headed straight to her room, water droplets trailing behind her. She moved in a haze, her movements lethargic as she threw on a baggy t-shirt with shorts, then proceeded to apply her moisturizer. She stared at her reflection as she rubbed the face serum into her skin in slow circles. Her phone buzzed with a message somewhere on the nightstand, but she ignored it.Her bones were heavy. A splitting headache throbbed at the back of her head, and dizziness lingered behind her eyes. She pushed to her feet just as her bedroom door creaked open and Leah appeared. “You done crying in there or do you want snacks first?”Anna paused, her lips parting as she stared incredulously at Leah. Hadn't she left? Leah

    Jason told himself he wasn’t thinking about Anna. He told himself that several times before the lie stopped sounding convincing.He had spent the past few hours running through possible courses of action in his head, staring at his phone as though it might magically dial her number itself—all while Travis preached in front of the big screen. He'd barely heard a word, and that annoyed him to no end. “What do you think, Mr. Knight?” Travis had asked with an annoyingly wide smile after his rather… decent presentation. He'd cleared his throat, searched his brain, and could only come up with, “Thank you for the thorough analysis. We'll get back to you.” Him—Jason Knight, notorious for his unnerving presence in boardrooms and conferences—had said just that and then left. Ethan informing him that he'd recorded the presentation—as though he knew Jason hadn't been listening—only made the irritation under his skin worse. He was back at his office now, the floor-to-ceiling glass wall behi

    “NO.” One word spat out through clenched teeth. Anna grabbed the duvet and stormed past Elena, their shoulders bumping. Elena followed. Julian's head tilted to the side as he watched. “She said she couldn't reach you, so she—” Elena stared hesitantly. Anna scoffed, cutting her off. “I wonder why? Oh, right. I blocked her.” “You blocked her?” Anna said nothing, focusing on draping the duvet over her bed. Anger and hurt twisted inside her, mingling with a gnawing sense of inadequacy. Elena stepped closer as she tucked in the corners. “You can't avoid her forever.” “I very much plan to,” Anna snapped. “She's our mother no matter what, Anna. You can't run from that fact,” Elena said firmly, frowning. Abandoning the duvet, Anna snapped around to her, face contorted in anger. “That's so easy for you to say,” she spat. “You're not the one who endured her…” Anna paused, biting her lower lip. “Go on, say it.” Elena moved closer. “What? You were the one who carried it all?” She chall

    “I'm not trying to judge you, Anna.” Julian moved closer. It certainly felt like he was—just like everyone else. Jason was his brother, and he'd sounded angry on his behalf that morning after the wedding. She wanted to ask if he'd been talking about the high school incident. The bruises he mentioned… she hadn't seen them on Jamie, had she? Or was it something that happened after high school? Was that why they moved?“I know you two have history—one that scarred him. And if I'm being honest, when I first saw that reunion clip, I was upset.” He inhaled deeply. “But then I realized the Anna then wasn't the Anna I know.” Anna shook her head. “You've every right to be upset, Julian.” “Well, I'm choosing not to be. For myself, and because I know everything Jason said wasn't just about what happened between you two. It's… more than that.” Anna frowned as she stared up at Julian. Was he trying to say there was another reason Jason was doing this? “More than that?” She asked, hoping Juli

    Anna couldn’t breathe, whether from pleasure, pain, or the way he was looking at her, she couldn’t tell.Jason fucked her like she was the answer to a question he hated himself for asking.Her walls clenched and unclenched around his cock, and she arched her back with a loud moan, that tugging feel

    Jason didn’t move when Ethan stepped into the office, didn’t even glance up from the papers he’d been pretending to review.“You’re back,” he said flatly, voice carrying that calm edge that always made people uneasy.Ethan shifted, clearing his throat. “Yes, Boss. But um…”His gaze finally lifted,

    Anna had woken up hours later near the door, curled into herself, cold and shivering. The sun was beginning its descent through the window of her sitting room, painting the sky with its orange hued light. The skin around her eyes and cheeks felt tight, dry and scratchy.Usually, she would sit by

    Anna's lips parted instinctively, brushing against the edge of Jason's touch. His lips brushed against his own finger still pressed to her mouth, a deliberate act of control. The contact was maddening. Her breath trembled against his finger, warm and pleading, their exhales mingling, close but n
