last update 최신 업데이트: 2025-09-29 14:57:23

Dante leaned back against the velvet couch, his arms crossed, but his eyes never left Liana. The moment her phone had slipped from her hand and those troubling words flashed on the screen, she had gone pale. He’d seen panic like that before—on fans cornered by scandal, on people pushed into a spotlight they weren’t ready for. But with Liana, it cut deeper. This was his sister. His little sister. And he’d be damned if he let her drown in fear.

“Hey,” Dante said lightly, deliberately softening his voice. He reached out and tilted her chin up, forcing her gaze away from the floor. “Don’t worry about that message. Leo and Cassian will take care of it. You’ve got the two scariest men in the country on your side. Trust me, whoever sent it won’t even dare breathe once they find out.”

Liana bit her lip. “But what if it’s Victor?”

“Then even better,” Dante replied smoothly, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips. “I’ve been dying to see that man fall flat on his face. Let our dear brothers

  • Spoiled By My Overprotective Brothers    Chapter 12 – A World Built Just for Her

    Liana had lived most of her life quietly, so quietly that sometimes she wondered if she had ever truly existed.In Victor’s house, she had been like a shadow: invisible, unappreciated, endlessly pushed aside. Days were measured by humiliation, nights by tears. No one had cared whether she smiled, whether she ate, or whether she dared to dream.But in the Carver mansion, life was completely different.She awoke that morning to silk curtains fluttering gently in the breeze, the scent of fresh lilies drifting from the vase Dante had insisted be placed by her bedside. Breakfast—a tray laden with fresh fruit, buttery croissants, and her favorite hazelnut latte—had been delivered without her asking. She blinked at it, still not accustomed to the idea that someone could care for her so lavishly, not as a duty, but as a joy.By the time she dressed, the day had already been planned for her—not with chores or obligations, but with delights.“Try this one,” Dante said with dramatic flair, holdi

  • Spoiled By My Overprotective Brothers    Chapter 11 – Lessons in Control

    The file still lay open in front of Liana long after Leo left the study. His words echoed in her ears, heavy as iron. Ignorance is the sharpest weapon they wield.Her fingers brushed over the photographs inside—faces she didn’t recognize, companies she couldn’t pronounce. Each page felt like a window into a world she hadn’t asked to inherit, a battlefield she didn’t know how to fight on.She closed the folder at last, exhaling shakily. The silence pressed on her chest until a knock broke it.The door creaked open. Cassian stood there, his dark suit crisp, his tie perfectly aligned. Unlike Leo, whose presence was cold steel, Cassian radiated quiet control. His gaze swept over her once, lingering just enough to read her tension.“You look like that file swallowed you whole,” he said softly, stepping inside.Liana tried to smile, but it faltered. “Maybe it did.”He shut the door behind him, crossing the room with unhurried steps. He carried no file, no phone, no weight of business in his

  • Spoiled By My Overprotective Brothers    Chapter 10 – The Cold Shield

    The mansion was alive with chatter by the time Dante swept back inside with Liana at his side. Bags upon bags trailed behind them, carried by staff who looked more like soldiers than servants. Dante’s booming laughter filled the hallway as he draped an arm around his sister and proudly announced her return like a victorious knight.“Look at her, gentlemen!” Dante declared as if addressing a stadium rather than his brothers. “Doesn’t she look like she could own half the city already? And to think she started the day looking like—well—” he gave a dramatic pause, “a lost lamb.”Liana rolled her eyes but couldn’t stop the small smile tugging at her lips.From the grand staircase, Leo descended like a shadow. His steps were measured, his expression carved from stone. The weight of his presence alone was enough to hush the staff, and even Dante toned down his theatrics for a moment.Leo’s eyes swept over his sister once, cold and clinical, before they rested on the mountain of shopping bags

  • Spoiled By My Overprotective Brothers    Chapter 8 – Secrets in the Shadows

    The phone slipped from Liana’s trembling fingers, clattering against the polished marble floor. For a moment, the sound echoed louder than her heartbeat. Her breath caught, shallow and uneven, as if the walls themselves had closed in on her.Dante was the first to move, crouching quickly to pick up the phone. His brows furrowed when he read the message, his playful warmth replaced by a flash of anger. “Who the hell sent this?”Leo snatched the device from his brother’s hand before Dante could respond. His eyes scanned the words, his jaw tightening, every line of his body rigid with control barely maintained. “Anonymous number,” he muttered, scrolling with quick precision. “Untraceable at first glance, but we’ll find the source.”Cassian stepped closer, his calm presence an anchor against the storm brewing in the room. “Liana,” he said softly, “did you recognize this threat? Is there anything Victor might be holding over you?”Her throat constricted. For years, Victor had fed her lies,

  • Spoiled By My Overprotective Brothers    Chapter 7 – The Heiress in the Spotlight

    The morning sunlight spilled across silk curtains, too bright, too golden. Liana stirred awake in a bed so vast it could have swallowed her entire apartment back in Victor’s penthouse. For a moment, she lay still, listening to the silence. No clattering from Miranda in the kitchen, no sharp voice demanding her obedience.Just quiet.And yet, the weight in her chest wouldn’t lift.A knock sounded at the door. Before she could answer, it swung open. Dante bounded in, casual in a white T-shirt and joggers, holding two cups of coffee. “Rise and shine, princess.”Liana blinked at him. “Princess?”“You’d prefer ‘rockstar’s baby sister’?” he teased, plopping onto the edge of her bed like he belonged there. He handed her a steaming cup. “Hazelnut latte. I remembered you mentioned once you liked nutty flavors.”Her lips parted. She hadn’t realized he’d been listening. “Thanks,” she murmured, wrapping her hands around the cup.The warmth seeped into her palms, but it didn’t soothe her nerves. H
