KEIRA’S POV

Because of our sudden return to Cresswell, Jessica couldn't join us anymore because she couldn't leave her sick mother. And although I completely understood her situation, it didn’t stop the heavy feeling forming inside my chest. It felt like I was losing more than just help in the house. I was losing stability.

This is why I'm currently worried about who will take care of my children.

  • Tamed By My Stepbrother   Final Chapter: Forever Begins Today

    KEIRA’S POVTwo months later...Drake and I made sure that Draven was completely healed before we started planning our wedding. There was no engagement at all—why would we go through the engagement process when he already had two children on installment?During these two months, I truly found happiness while Draven was recovering and we were preparing for our wedding with Drake. I no longer had any lingering pain or anger in my heart, and I knew the people around me felt the same way.Today was the wedding day. It was the most anticipated day of my life, because right after this day, I would officially become Mrs. Drake Ashford. It was a dream I never thought would come true. I was chosen and loved by this possessive monster. Yes, he was still incredibly possessive even though we already had two children, and yes, he was a true monster in bed."Keira, are you ready?" My mom Noreen asked me. She was the one assisting me, and we were at the Peninsula Hotel, as this is where we would dep

  • Tamed By My Stepbrother   Chapter 142: Reconciliation and Relief

    KEIRA’S POVWhen we arrived at Ashford Medical Hospital, Draven was immediately admitted to the ICU. Sean informed us that our son needed close monitoring until he regained consciousness.In silence, Drake and I watched over Draven through the large glass panel that separated us. From there, we could see the multitude of medical devices attached to his body. His pulse rate and oxygen levels were still being monitored."Don't worry too much, because I'm sure he'll wake up. He got that trait from me, so I know he won't give up," Drake reassured me, trying to boost my spirits as he patted my shoulder. Even though I could sense his continued concern."I just can't find peace until he wakes up. I didn't know that because of a simple piece of chocolate, our child's life would be in danger," I said, tears welling up again."Just stay strong, Keira. Sean assured us that he'd be fine," he replied.I looked at him and smiled. Our parents were approaching at that moment. Drake's father, both my

  • Tamed By My Stepbrother   Chapter 141: Seconds That Matter

    KEIRA’S POV"What happened?" Sean asked, breathless, as he approached us. I was on the verge of collapsing to the floor from crying so hard. He didn't wait for us to respond and immediately went to Draven. "Hey! I'm a doctor; please state his condition!" he ordered, displaying his license."But you're not a doctor here," another nurse interjected."It's a matter of life and death, nurse! You should know how to prioritize what you're talking about! I'm a pediatric doctor, and he's my nephew!" Sean couldn't contain his shout. "PLEASE REPORT!""I'm the Code RN; we just shocked him at 2 J/KG for a v-fib arrest. He still appears to be on V-Fib. The last shock was delivered a minute and a half ago.""Have you given him any medication yet?" Sean asked as a follow-up question."No, not yet, but we've administered an IV.""Okay, let's give him EPI!" Sean ordered again."0.01 milligram of EPI in," the nurse he instructed said."Good compression." I wanted to commend Sean for remaining calm in s

  • Tamed By My Stepbrother   Chapter 140: Heartbeat in Crisis

    KEIRA’S POVWhen we arrived there, they immediately prepared food for us."Isn't it funny, Edward? I never thought we'd become in-laws. Even though Sabina didn't end up with Drake, I'm still happy that my niece will be with him," Uncle Fred happily said to Dad."I'm also happy, especially now that I have grandchildren through them. I thought I'd die without ever seeing Drake have any kids," Dad said with a smile as we ate."Thank you, Catherine, for taking care of my child," Mom Noreen said, her eyes welling up."You don't need to thank me because the truth is, Keira brought color into my life back then, so I should be the one thanking your child. If it weren't for her, I might have gone crazy, or worse, I might not even be alive today," Mom Catherine replied."I envy you because you took care of her, but because I've seen how well you raised her, I think I should be thankful instead of envious. Maybe if she had grown up with me during that time, I wouldn't have taken care of her prope

  • Tamed By My Stepbrother   Chapter 139: Embracing What Matters

    DRAKE’S POV"Dad?" I called softly, trying to get his attention. He looked up from the papers he had been signing, his brow slightly furrowed in curiosity. "You know that I am filled with resentment towards you," I continued, my voice steady but carrying the weight of years I had carried alone."Yeah, I know, son," he replied solemnly. There was a pause before he spoke again, and I could hear the heavy tone of regret in his voice. "And the truth is, I don’t know how I can make up for all my shortcomings toward you."I swallowed hard. His words hit me like a distant memory of old arguments, of lonely nights in this mansion when I was just a kid and had nobody to lean on. I remembered feeling invisible, feeling abandoned. But then I looked past him to the twins—Draven and Drianna—racing across the room with uncontainable energy, their laughter bouncing off the walls, and I felt a warmth I hadn’t experienced in years."But everything changed when the twins came into my life," I said, my

  • Tamed By My Stepbrother   Chapter 138: Tears and Understanding

    KEIRA’S POVWhile the kids were playing with their grandfather, I approached Drake. I just couldn't stay quiet, and I knew it was something I had to do."Drake, I think I want to talk to Mom," I hesitantly said to him, and he furrowed his brow slightly."Are you serious, Keira?" He asked incredulously, realizing who I was referring to. "She doesn't even want to see you here, and you want to talk to her?""I believe, Drake, that even though she's not my biological mother, she did love me genuinely. I just want to fix everything between us before we start planning our wedding," I explained sadly, and he sighed. "I just want her to be there too.""Go ahead, I know that no matter what I say, I can't stop you from doing what you want," he said with a shrug and tapped my face."Thank you." Afterward, I smiled at him before turning to look for my mom."Keira!" Edward called out to me, so I turned back to him. "Where are you going?""I would like to talk to Mom," I replied. He nodded and walk
