“What am I going to do now?”

I looked at Hailee, worry was evident on my face. She opened a beer in can, I gestured her to give me one but she firmly shook her head along her strict expression. I pouted a bit.

“Na-uh. No liquors from now on. Take care of your body. Eat healthy foods. Avoid stress, and have regular checkups. That’s all you have to do, momma Bev.” She grinned playfully. I frowned.

“Ugh. It feels so weird. How am I supposed to give this thing a better life if I couldn’t even give myself a good one?” I let out a heavy breath. She gulped her beer and wiped her lips after. Jeez. I’m envious.

“Then, you must try. It’s not like you’re alone in this phase. You have me,” she faced me while smiling softly. “I will always be here for you and for this soon-to-be mini you…” she said as she caressed my flat tummy.

It warmed my heart. However, this isn’t an easy process. There’s still doubts and fears continued to linger deep within me. The demons in my head… were activating on the

  • Stepbrother, I Have A Secret   Chapter 8: Possessive

    Hot tears pooled in the corner of my eyes. I gazed sharply at him before I forcefully pulled my wrist from his hold and hastily marched upstairs, leaving him standing like a fool there. My footsteps were heavy as I walked to my room. I let the shopping bags fall on the floor and threw myself on the bed, my chest tightening and I could feel a lump forming in my throat.“So sorry, baby. You have a very bad daddy,” I sighed while touching my tummy. “He hates mommy. Well, I hate him too…” my chuckled was dry. God, I don’t like this feeling at all. “But don’t you worry, mommy got you. I’m sorry for thinking of getting rid of you. I promise I’ll protect and love you… with all my heart.” I meant it. If I have to keep my baby away from the people around us that could potentially hurt him or her, I’d gladly do it. From now on, my baby’s safety is my priority. Hailee’s right. What I got was a blessing that deserves to be cherished, it was a gift from above that needs my pure care, love and att

  • Stepbrother, I Have A Secret   Chapter 9: Explain

    “What the heck was that? Who’s that daddy, huh?” Lancer asked maliciously. There was something in his eyes that tells me I have to spill some tea or else.I rolled my eyes lazily as I let out a chuckle. This is hilarious! What was running in that bastard’s mind? Did he do that on purpose? Why did he have to pull that stunt? He’s making things confusing to me, that idiot!And this gay friend of mine won’t seriously let this day pass without me telling him every damn thing about what he just witnessed. I was freakin’ right because while we were entering the building, he never stopped bugging me about it. In the end, I told him the truth while we’re walking even after we entered the elevator. “What?! He’s your stepbrother? You’re kidding, dear!” he exclaimed exasperatedly, as expected.“Yeah, I’m not.” I chuckled Lancer is a co-model and like me, he does runway, pageant and brand modeling. Today, we’re scheduled to do the latter as we both got a contract from this prestigious brand and

  • Stepbrother, I Have A Secret   Chapter 10: Wrong Move

    I faced him, my brows knitted and eyes were sharp enough that I wish they could kill. “What else do I need to hear from a cheater like you, huh? Tell me, Duke. You fucking disrespected me! A breakup through phone call, really? You’re that cheap? Where did you get the guts? Where the fuck are your balls?” I asked continuously, anger was evident in my voice.I forcefully pulled my arm from his grip. He slowly looked down as he let out a sigh. My expression didn’t change even a bit.“Please, hear me out! I was… I was just troubled. Yes, I admit I slept with random girls while we were together but can you blame me? You were always busy and I’ve been making time for you to fulfill my duty as your boyfriend yet you weren’t giving me the same energy-“ “And then? That’s enough reason for you to cheat and fool me? Fuck you, Duke! I’ve never thought you’d be this immature.” I gazed at him with plain disgust. He inhaled sharply and lifted his head up to look at me.We were in that situation wh

  • Stepbrother, I Have A Secret   Chapter 11: Never Treat As One

    His kisses turned deep and intense, my hands completely weakened and I let the cold compress fall on the floor as tingling sensation took over me. He encircled his arm around my waist and put me on his lap, locking me firmly as if it was where I must belong.He pushed my mouth and open and slid his tongue inside to battle with mine. My body was becoming hotter for each passing minute. There was something in every flick of his sinful tongue that made me want to crave for more. He expertly sucked, bit and played my tongue like his new found candy. I can’t even deny how fucking good he is when it comes to this. He kissed deliciously and it was freaking wholesome. This man really knows… how to fucking get me.But before I could kiss him back, reality kicked in and I remembered why I should never talk or stay close to him, most importantly, why I must avoid him. At all cost.“N-No...” I broke the kiss, pushed his chest and quickly moved away. He chased me with his burning gaze. I shook my

  • Stepbrother, I Have A Secret   Chapter 12: Taken Away

    Time flies really fast. Everything’s happening like a flash and we have no choice but to just go with the flow of life, no matter how complicated the events would turn out and how they differ from how we want things to happen, how we want things to favor our way.The big day has finally come. Today, my mother will be remarried and this time, to the man she loves, the father of the man who’s becoming a threat to my heart lately and I surely know this is not so right, that I have to stop whatever this feeling is before it’s too late for me to get up. Because I believe… it will all go into nothingness and all those silly effects of his words given to me… they are all nonsense and worth forgetting about. I’m pretty sure of that.The wedding was happening at one of the famous garden in the city. Mom was the one who suggested it and Trevor merrily approved. According to the people, this garden has a very special participation in the history of Torryn Hills. I don’t know if it’s true but ot

  • Stepbrother, I Have A Secret   Chapter 13: Caught

    Fear enveloped me. I was so ready to bite his hand and kick his balls when he eventually removed his hands from me as we left the main hall and stopped at the dark corner of the villa’s garden. I faced the whodunit and my mouth hanged open when I saw who it was.“D-Duke? What the heck are you doing? Why did you do that?” I asked hysterically.I stared at his face only to notice that he looked like shit. His suit wasn’t even flattened, his hair completely disheveled and the bags under his eyes were too visible right now. I could still even see some scars around his face due to his previous fight with Atlas, and the cut on the side of his lips was still there too.“Please, calm down! I just want us to talk. I really want to talk to you, Bev. I-I won’t hurt you!” He tried to reach me again but I refused and hastily stepped back.“You’re insane!” I hissed. He looked at me miserably.“I know the truth now. I was wrong when I thought you were with another man. He’s your stepbrother, I knew

    “Why are you still up?” Atlas lazily moved away from me, slid his hands in his pockets and faced the maid whose face was pale as paper.She glanced at my way, I pressed my lips together. I knew she clearly saw it. It was all Atlas’ fault anyway! How dare he cornered me just because he wanted to and it pleased him!“What did you see? How long have you been standing here?” Atlas slowly walked towards the maid. I decided to follow him.“Um… nothing, Sir! I was just planning to get some water. I-I didn’t see anything!” the maid said in her trembling voice while shaking her head repeatedly, her eyes were tightly closed, hands balled into fists. Atlas didn’t say anything. The maid couldn’t look at any of us anymore. I eyed him to see his calm expression but there was something in his eyes that was telling me otherwise. I wonder what’s running in his mind right now…“Is that so?” he gazed down at the broken glass scattered on the floor. “Better clean your mess then. Careful next time. Have

  • Stepbrother, I Have A Secret   Chapter 15: Naughty

    I was never ready for this moment, to hear him say those words that would bring total chaos in my heart… and in my mind. This man, he never failed to confuse the hell out of me and make me step out of our boundaries. “Why?” I asked, almost a whisper. “Why would you be jealous? Are you crazy?” I glared. His expression remained the same.His breathing was heavy, chest moving up and down rapidly. He looked so angry. My heart kept on getting wilder and wilder as seconds were passing by. I was kinda sleepy earlier at the bar but right now, all I could think about is how to get away from this fucking situation.“Maybe I am.” Atlas muttered acidly. My heart skipped a beat. His hold on me loosened up. I took it as an opportunity to run from the on-going tension. I was half-running on the stairs while he was following me behind. It’s like I was in a horror movie where the killer’s after me. It felt creepy. I was utterly nervous, almost slipped myself from time to time cuz his heavy yet slow

  • Stepbrother, I Have A Secret   Chapter 25: Girl

    We’re finally out of the club, Atlas was holding me still and it’s like he has no plans on letting me go. He looked so furious, his breathing was heavy and harsh. I couldn’t seem to find courage to speak, he’s frightening me every time he’s this angry, like no one’s able to calm the rage that kept on rushing through his veins.“Get the fuck in.” He ordered as soon as we reached his car.However, this shouldn’t be done this way. Things aren’t the same as before anymore but here he is, acting like nothing has ever happened, like we weren’t exposed, like he wasn’t gone missing for a week and now, he showed up out of nowhere just to fucking control me again.“No.” I refused firmly. It’s scary how he can easily bend me and make me forget about our reality. How can I possibly move forward and start anew if he got my whole damn heart? “I’m staying…” I added in a monotone.“Come again?” He toned dangerously. “I said, I’m staying! I’m going back inside!” My gaze sharpened but when I met his d

  • Stepbrother, I Have A Secret   Chapter 24: Jealousy & Madness

    After two days, mom has been discharged. She’s required to take a rest for another few days while eating nothing but fruits and other healthy foods. Right after Trevor temporarily left their room, I took it as a chance to stay at my mother’s side until he comes back.“How’s your heart?” I asked, lips stretched for a half smile.“All good, with calm beats.” She answered with delight. I nodded then blew out a sigh afterwards. Now that she’s recovering, another batch of fear entered my system. When me and Atlas were exposed, it resulted her this. I’m afraid that one day… when the time comes and she’ll know about my pregnancy, it might cause her worse. Especially once she realized that the father of her grandchild was the son of her husband, the man who can never be mine.“You seem healthy. I really think it’s so stupid of me not to notice there’s something wrong with your body.” I said, remorse laced my tone. It was her turn to sigh as she held my face. I took a slice of tangerine and p

  • Stepbrother, I Have A Secret   Chapter 23: A Favor

    “M-Mom…” I got up as fast as I could. Meanwhile, Atlas was one hell of a sleepyhead, I had to shake him off just so he could wake up! After multiple attempts, he finally opened his eyes and it immediately met my frightening pairs. He pulled himself up in a snap, we were both naked underneath the comforter. I had to pull it up to cover my nudity. I lifted my gaze up to meet mom’s teary eyes. Beside her was Trevor whose face began to darken.Shit. Shit. Shit. This is the day which I considered as a nightmare and now it’s all coming true…Atlas was the first one to recover as he picked up his clothes and wore them one by one. I followed him after and put my dress on.“You shameless son of a bitch!”Trevor aggressively closed the distance to attack his son. He harshly grabbed Atlas’ shirt, taking him off the bed then without a second thought, he punched him on the face! I knew it was seriously hard ‘cause I heard his knuckles crack. Trembling, I covered my mouth to muffle my sobs. Mom pu

    Panic rushed through me. With my full strength, I forcefully pushed the door to close it back, although his hand was reflexive enough to stop me from completely shutting it on his face.“S-Stay there! Don’t you enter!” I shouted with alertness. Atlas seems too shocked at my odd reaction. “What’s going on?” his eyes filled with confusion. He tried pushing the door open, taking over my force. My eyes frantically widened as I vigilantly leaned my body against it to strengthen the force on my side. “Just stay right there!” I snarled.“Okay, okay.” He said, surrendering. He also let go of the door, making me fully shut it close.Then I heaved a harsh sigh before I hastily jumped on the bed, drowned half of my body into the thick comfort, clutching it tightly just to make sure the bump’s hidden properly. Atlas knocked on the door but still opened it by himself anyway. He stood near the edge of the, watching me intently. I gulped as I tried to breath normally. He started stepping forward u

    “Atlas’ step uncle.” I acknowledged. He looked at me, transparently amused.“So he already told you about me. Anyway, don’t call me that way when he’s near or he’ll break loose.” Damon’s lips tugged up. He’s also holding a cup of coffee, dressed in light blue polo sleeves tucked in his belted slacks, his aviators hanging on the upper center of his polo. He was so uncle-coded.“I don’t really care if he hears it.” I shrugged and looked away before I took a sip on my coffee.He chuckled lowly. “Jealous baby, I see.” I swiftly faced him again.“Excuse me? I’m not jealous!” I defended. Who does he think he is to concluded that? And why would I be jealous, huh? Because of what? Because of that?My eyes darted at the two who were smiling at each other. She gestured him something and he smiled at her. I pressed my lips together as I saw them moving towards the café now, Atlas met my gaze and I witnessed how his face immediately darkened after he noticed who was standing next to me. I scoffe

    “I thought you hate me.” I made a cheeky smile as I rested my chin on my palm, my elbow glued to the marbled countertop.“I still hate you, Brook. Nothing changed.” Atlas uttered sternly yet there was a small smile seeping through his lips.My smile grew wide, I angled my head more to get a better view of him from here. He was in the kitchen, cooking something that seemed savory, I could literally smell its taste and I’m already hooked. Plus, he’s wearing that pink cute apron again which just motivated me more to watch him. Heck, I don’t think I will ever get tired watching him act like a pro chef with his well-toned abs as an appetizer. Lancer’s words before popped in my mind like a timely visit. He’s indeed right when he told me about Atlas being a blessing in the morning.“Go on. Hate me more, Cameron.” I chuckled softly. He only flashed a smirk before his broad back face me as he resumed his cooking. “What are you cooking?” I asked just to make another topic.“Cordon Bleu.” He an

    “You’re still hard?” I toned unbelievably, gazing down on his proud manhood saluting to me.“What do you think?” Atlas smirked knowingly. He then, reached for my hand and guided it to his erection! “Hey, let’s take a rest. I want to go home already.” I yawned and took back my hand which earned a frown from him. “Calm that relentless dick of yours.” I jested. “Damn it.” I heard him mutter. A playful smirk curved my lips.He put his pants back on and zipped it, including his shirt before he eventually restarted the engine, his hand staying on the steering wheel while the other was left on my thigh, caressing it from time to time and sometimes drawing circles on it. So, in the end, I only got to wear my top but not my trousers, and just when I was struggling to put my undies on, his hand suddenly went up until it stopped at my shaven genital. I gripped on his veiny arm, trying to push it a little but to no avail. His expression remained cool, opposite of my flushed cheeks and labored

    “He’s your uncle?” I asked Atlas. He rolled his eyes and clenched his jaw, his grip on me also tightened a bit.“No. Let’s get out of here.” He gazed darkly at Damon before he pulled me to follow his lead.Hailee tailed us behind. Atlas’ expression was dark and firm. I got to see his side that I honestly fear, again. His steps were heavy yet hasty, my tiny legs were trying hard to keep up. I could feel his anger. He’s really mad.But aside from seeing us here as a reason, I think there’s another one behind his labored breathing and protruding veins, for him to act this way. Was it because of Damon? Why is he so triggered?We only stopped when we reached his McLaren. I gazed at him with unbelievable look on my face. He ignored my reaction and opened the car door instead. I glanced at Hailee, eyes filled with worries.“How about her? I brought my car, you know. It’s in the parking lot.” I told Atlas whose expression didn’t change.“It’s fine, Bev! I can just use it and drive to the vil

    “That was freaking weird.” Hail reacted as soon as we continued our walks, away from that old lady.“Yeah. She’s creepy.” Jeez. I had goosebumps right there, swear. Especially when she held my hand and said those words to me.What did she mean endless chaos? Was that a warning? A sign or something?“Hey, are you still thinking about what she said? Forget it. Don’t stress yourself. Remember, the baby.” Hail wiggled her eyebrows as she caressed my tummy. My lips crept a smile. “She’s just fooling around. I know that stunt so well.” She uttered in displeasure.“I’m not a believer of such, Hail.” I shrugged. She gave me a satisfied nod.“That’s good. Let’s not waste our time for some street clowns.” She grinned. We ended up shopping in the mall and mostly, we bought baby things like cute pillows, toys, socks, gloves and etc. All of them were unisex. I strictly told Hail to keep the baby things in her house for the mean time and she’d just give it back to me once the bump became visible w
