CHAPTER 91: A MAN ON A MISSION

DAMIEN:

I got back to my room after having that chat with my grandmother. Kim was already dressed. I quickly stepped into the bathroom, washed up and got dressed in a dark navy suit, tailored to precision. Crisp white shirt, buttoned all the way, no tie—my usual no-nonsense look.

I put on my shoes and wrist watch, and grabbed my car keys.

“Let's go, honey.”

Kim nodded and led the way. It was a thirty minute drive to Carter Corp. We didn't talk much in the car. I

  • TRADING MY EX FOR HIS STEP BROTHER    WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, DOCTOR?

    CHAPTER 226: WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, DOCTOR?CATHERINE:I laid there in silence, just staring at the ceiling as the doctor’s words washed over me. He kept talking about luck and miracles, but my mind was stuck on the image of Jordan sitting in that chair for forty-eight hours straight. I’d spent so much time convincing myself he didn't care about me, or at least a bystander in my misery. But now that I know the truth, the guilt felt like a physical weight on my chest.Then, the doctor said something that made the room go completely still."You’re a fighter, Luna," he said, checking the levels on my monitor. "It’s not just about you surviving the wolfsbane. The fact that the fetus in your womb made it through that poison... that’s the real miracle."My heart stopped. I felt the air leave my lungs. "Fetus?" I croaked, my voice sounding like it was coming from someone else. "What are you talking about? What fetus?"The doctor stopped what he was doing and looked at me with a warm, kn

  • TRADING MY EX FOR HIS STEP BROTHER    THE LETTER

    CHAPTER 84: THE LETTER CATHERINE:Zoe and I got to the parking lot pretty fast. As we stepped into the car, she made a joke that suggested I was going to be Mrs Canon very soon. I didn't respond to that. I couldn't take a joke right now.She turned on the engine and started the car. As we drove through the quiet streets, the humming of the engine was the only thing filling the silence. My mind was a complete mess, spinning like a tire stuck in the mud. Two hefty men? In black suits? That didn’t sound like a friendly visit from the neighbors.I tried to go through a mental list of everyone I might’ve ticked off lately. I hadn't offended anyone. I didn't owe any money. I didn't have scores to settle. The only name that kept popping up like a bad rash was Denzel. That man was a total maniac, but he had to know the Werewolf Council was watching his every move. If he tried to pull some stupid stunt now, he’d be throwing his whole life away.I let out a heavy sigh and leaned my head agains

  • TRADING MY EX FOR HIS STEP BROTHER    EPILOGUE

    KIMBERLY: The chaos was finally over. For the first time in a long while, we lived a quiet life. Roland survived the gunshot wound, but life humbled him hard. He couldn’t move freely anymore. Every time I saw him on that hospital bed, looking so small and helpless, I felt something twist inside me — not pity exactly, just the reminder that karma never forgets an address. He went through one complication after another until he just stopped fighting. The once proud, arrogant Roland Carter now depended on nurses for almost everything. But Damien was planning on flying him abroad for medical care that would cost him millions of dollars. Blood is thicker than water, they say. Carter Corp had taken off like a rocket since after the luncheon. Damien’s leadership changed everything. We expanded into real estate, fashion, and tech. The new fashion line became my baby. I poured my heart into it. Watching models walk the runway in clothes our designers designed was a kind of satisf

    CHAPTER 190: KIM'S PREGNANT DAMIEN:In a matter of minutes, police sirens wailed in the distance, slicing through the night like an omen. I stood frozen, my heart pounding so loud I could barely hear anything else. Roland lay sprawled on the hotel floor, blood seeping fast through his shirt. “Boss, it was all his fault,” Roy whispered behind me, as he tried to stop the blood by covering the bullet wound with his palm.Kim's body was totally limp in my arms. She had fainted out of fear. My pulse raised anxiously. “Kim! Hey, Kim, stay with me.”But she didn't move.Her head lolled against my shoulder, eyes fluttering shut. My stomach twisted. For a second, I didn’t know who to help first—Roland bleeding out on the floor or Kim lying unconscious in my arms.The room felt heavy. The scent of gunpowder and blood mixed in the air. My ears still rang from the shot.I looked at Roland—his eyes were glassy, still full of hate even as life drained from him. I’d never wanted things to end lik

  • TRADING MY EX FOR HIS STEP BROTHER    KIM'S NOWHERE TO BE FOUND

    CHAPTER 189: KIM'S NOWHERE TO BE FOUND DAMIEN:The hall was loud with music, laughter, and champagne glasses clinking. Everyone looked like they were having the time of their lives. But me? My mind wasn’t in it. Kim had stepped out twenty minutes ago, saying she was going to the restroom, but she hadn’t come back.At first, I thought maybe she ran into someone she knew or got caught up in small talk. But twenty minutes? Nah. That didn’t sit right with me. I tried to shake it off, but my gut wouldn’t calm down.“Excuse me, gentlemen,” I said to the group of CEOs at my table. They were talking about some merger, but I couldn’t focus anymore.“Go ahead, Damien,” one of them said, smiling. “We’ll hold the fort.”I nodded, loosened my tie, and walked out of the banquet hall. The moment the doors closed behind me, the noise faded, replaced by the soft hum of the hallway air conditioning.I walked straight to the restroom and pushed the door open. “Kim?” I called out, scanning every stall.
