KEIRA’S POV

"Old style, Doc!" Drake teased—but his eyes were on me, not Sean.

Sean burst into laughter. “I knew it. Someone else spotted her first,” he said meaningfully, throwing Drake a knowing look.

Drake’s gaze, however, didn’t waver. He was staring straight at me, and something in the way his eyes burned made my pulse quicken.

"Alright, I’ll leave you two," Sean announced, stepping away. But before he left, he glanced back at me and smirked. “Keira, be careful with my cousin. His charm’s… different. Once he gets under your skin, you might never escape.” He winked, then disappeared down the path, leaving an awkward silence between Drake and me.

Drake turned to me sharply the moment Sean was gone. “Next time, don’t talk to just anyone here—especially not—” His words faltered as his eyes swept down my body, lingering too long. His jaw clenched. “And for God’s sake, Keira… don’t ever go out dressed like that again.”

I blinked, stunned. “What? Do you want me to wear a gown? We’re at t

  • Tamed By My Stepbrother   Chapter 7: After the Thunder Fades

    KEIRA’S POVThe warmth between us deepened, wrapping around my body like fire trapped under my skin. For a heartbeat, the world stopped—just me, him, and the echo of a kiss we never should’ve shared.Then—“Master Drake!” a voice shouted from outside.We sprang apart, both breathless, both startled by how close we’d been. Drake rose so quickly he nearly stumbled over the bench.“We’re here!” he called back, voice rougher than usual.I followed him out, my pulse still racing in my throat. A group of staff hurried toward us, carrying umbrellas and towels, their shoes splashing against the puddles.“Oh dear, you’re both drenched!” one of them exclaimed, rushing to wrap a towel around my shoulders. Another led a white horse forward, its mane slick with rain.“For now, please use this, sir. The vehicles are all occupied,” the man said, bowing slightly.Drake didn’t answer. He simply grabbed the reins and swung himself onto the horse, then extended his hand toward me.I froze, cheeks heatin

    KEIRA’S POV I was floating somewhere between dreams when something tapped my cheek. At first, I tried to ignore it, burying my face deeper into the seat. Then came a voice I’d know even in my nightmares. “Hey, drooling girl! Wake up! We’re already here.” My eyes flew open. Drake’s smug grin was the first thing I saw — and immediately, I wished I was still asleep. “What did you just call me?” I mumbled, rubbing my eyes. Then I froze. My fingers brushed something wet on my cheek. Oh no. I turned my head — and horror slammed into me. His black leather jacket… was wet. Because of me. “Don’t tell me—” I gasped, already reaching for tissues that didn’t exist. In pure panic, I wiped his coat… and, out of reflex, even dabbed the corner of his mouth. Drake’s laughter exploded, deep and unrestrai

    KEIRA’S POV“Keira! They’re already here, come out now!” Mom’s voice echoed from the living room.I’d been awake for hours—showered, dressed, and ready—but I couldn’t bring myself to step outside. My chest felt heavy, my heart caught somewhere between nostalgia and dread.For the last time, I looked around my room. The pale curtains, the framed photos, the desk where I used to do my homework—everything here held eleven years of my life. Joys. Tears. Memories.And as I dragged my suitcase toward the door, I felt like I was leaving all of them behind.“Yes, Mom. I’m coming out,” I replied, though my voice sounded small. Each step felt heavier than the last, as if my feet were chained to the past.“Come on, they’ve been waiting for us!” she urged impatiently, taking my suitcase from me before handing it to a man in a sharp black suit. For a second, I wondered if we were being escorted by the Presidential Security Group—that’s how formal and intimidating they looked.Black coats. Sunglass

  • Tamed By My Stepbrother   Chapter 4: The Night Everything Changed

    KEIRA’S POVWhen I finally returned to the dining room, my hands still trembled slightly. I tried to act normal, even though my lips still tingled from what had just happened. Drake was already back at the table, seated beside his father as if nothing had occurred.His eyes flicked toward me for a brief second—just one—but it was enough to make my pulse skip. I quickly looked away and sat beside my mom, forcing a polite smile even as my heart refused to calm down.The air between us felt heavy, almost suffocating. I tried to listen as Edward and my mother exchanged a few quiet words, but I couldn’t focus. Every move, every breath, every quiet sound reminded me of what had happened in that hallway. The taste of it still lingered on my lips.Edward cleared his throat softly, pulling my attention back to the table.“Keira, Drake,” he began, his tone carrying weight. “We have something important to tell you both.”I looked up, sensing that this wasn’t just casual conversation. Mom’s hand

    KEIRA’S POVI couldn’t concentrate as I gathered my things at the end of class. My mind kept drifting back to yesterday—the way Drake had cornered me in my room, the heat of his touch, the pull I couldn’t ignore. I told myself I hated him. I wanted to believe it. But the way his eyes followed me—like I was already his—made it harder to remember why.My phone buzzed, and I almost jumped. Who could it be now? I answered quickly.“Hello, Mom?”“Where are you? I’m outside your school. I came to pick you up so we can go together.” Her voice was warm, comforting, and I felt a small flicker of relief despite the lingering tension in my chest.“My last class just ended, Mom. Wait for me,” I said, then turned to my friends. “I’m heading out. My mom’s here.”“Alright, take care,” Trisha said, waving. Earl didn’t speak, his eyes still shadowed by what had happened with Drake.I hurried across the campus and slid into my mother’s car. I wanted to focus on something normal, but Drake’s memory clun
