꧁♡ 𝓣𝓲𝓶♡꧂

Eric’s breathing turned ragged, his body shaking like he was freezing even though the room was warm. One officer stepped closer, speaking calmly into a radio clipped to his shoulder. Another reached for Eric’s arm, trying to guide him back into the chair.

Eric resisted weakly, his strength already draining away, his face twisted with fury and fear at the same time.

“Don’t touch me,” he shouted hoarsely. “Tim, tell them to stop!”

I couldn’t move. My feet felt nailed to the floor. My

  • The Brother I Shouldn’t Want   057

    ꧁♡ 𝔉𝔯𝔞𝔫𝔨 ♡꧂Peter had sent me the address earlier.Jacques’ house.It was supposed to be simple. I show up, we talk, he gives me the construction rights, and I finally get to settle things properly in New York without having to keep shifting pieces around like I’ve been doing for months now. It wasn’t even about ambition at this point, it was about control, about having something stable in a place that clearly didn’t want to give me that easily. Jacques had the kind of influence that made things smoother, quieter, less messy, and once he agreed, everything else would fall into place without much resistance.That was the plan, before everything got ruined.Before Kagemoto Kazama decided to get involved.I exhaled slowly as I drove, my fingers tapping lightly against the steering wheel in a steady rhythm that didn’t match the way my thoughts were moving. It was trying to piece together something that was already obvious but still didn’t sit right.The meeting had failed.Not just

    ꧁♡ 𝓣𝓲𝓶♡꧂I couldn’t stop thinking about it.No matter how many times I tried to push it to the back of my mind, it kept coming back, replaying in small fragments that didn’t even make sense on their own but still managed to sit heavy in my chest. The mail. The way Frank had said it so casually, like it wasn’t something that should have shaken me the way it did. Like it was just a fact, something obvious, something I should have already known.But I didn’t.And that was the problem.I stood in the corner of the staff room, my fingers loosely wrapped around the edge of the table, staring at nothing in particular while my mind ran in circles. I could still hear his voice, the way it had dropped slightly when he said it, the way his expression had changed just enough for me to notice even if he didn’t make a big deal out of it.“You’re repaying him for saving your life by letting him walk over you and kissing you… yeah right, I saw the mail of the two of you kissing that you sent.”I

    ꧁♡ 𝓣𝓲𝓶♡꧂By the time I was halfway done getting ready for work, I still wasn’t sure if I was fully awake or if my mind had finally crossed that line into something else entirely.I stood there for a moment, staring at my own reflection in the mirror, toothbrush still in my mouth, foam gathering at the corner as I paused mid-motion like I had forgotten what I was supposed to be doing. Frank was here. Actually here, not a hallucination, not a dream, not something my exhausted brain had created to fill in the gaps I didn’t want to deal with. He was in my apartment, in my kitchen, making breakfast like it was just a normal Monday.I rinsed my mouth slowly, my eyes caught the sight of bruises that were on my neck. My body was still catching up with everything that had happened the night before, or maybe it was still trying to process the fact that he hadn’t disappeared when I woke up, because a part of me had expected that. Expected to open my eyes and find nothing there.Expected

    ꧁♡ 𝔉𝔯𝔞𝔫𝔨 ♡꧂I leaned back against the headboard, one leg stretched out while the other bent slightly, my body still warm, still carrying the aftereffect of everything we had done tonight. My hand reached for the cigarette on the table without thinking too much about it, fingers moving on instinct as I lit it, the faint spark breaking through the dimness before fading into a small, steady glow.I took a slow drag, letting it sit in my chest before exhaling, my gaze drifting without purpose until it landed on him again.Tim.He had already fallen asleep.Not surprising.We had gone at it more than once, and by the end of it, his body had given in completely, like it had nothing left to hold onto. He was lying there now, half turned to the side, the blanket barely covering him properly, his breathing slow and even like nothing in the world could reach him at that moment. There was something about the way he looked like that, completely unguarded, completely unaware, that made it h

    ꧁࿇ Eric࿇꧂ I had just stepped out of the shower when the silence of the house settled around me again, heavy and familiar in a way that felt almost suffocating if I paid too much attention to it. Water still clung to my skin as I ran a towel through my hair, slow and absent-minded, my thoughts already drifting somewhere else before I even finished drying off. The mirror in front of me reflected a version of myself that looked composed, put together, nothing out of place, but I knew better than to trust that surface. My mind wasn’t calm. It hadn’t been calm since earlier. Frank. Kagemoto Kazama had made that very clear. His people were watching his every move, making sure Frank stayed exactly where he was supposed to be. There was no way he could just slip out unnoticed, no way he could appear here, in New York, like nothing had been put in place to stop him. And yet, I had seen him. I let out a slow breath and went to the wine cabinet, reached for a bottle of wine, pouring my

    ꧁♡ 𝓣𝓲𝓶♡꧂Frank still held me close, and my arm tight around his waist like I was scared he’d slip away if I loosened even a little. His breath brushed the side of my neck, hot and ragged, and I could feel the quick beat of his heart where my head rested on his chest.I should’ve felt drained, empty after the release, but instead, I felt alive in a way I couldn’t explain. My legs still trembled, my lips swollen, my skin marked where his mouth and hands had claimed me. I should’ve been satisfied. But lying there, wrapped up in him, I could feel the hunger still there, asking to be fed with more.Frank kissed the side of my head, gentle this time, almost too gentle compared to how rough it had been minutes ago. “You okay?” he whispered against my hair.I nodded, though my voice came out broken. “Yeah… more than okay.”His lips curved against me, and I knew he was smiling. Jerk! He pulled back just enough to look at me. His eyes were still dark, pupils blown wide, but softer around t

    ☾♡ Eric ♡☽Hatred has always come easily to me.People liked to say brothers should love each other, protect each other, grow up side by side like two trees from the same root. But Frank and I had never grown like that. From the moment we were children, he stood taller, brighter, louder than me. H

    𝓣𝓲𝓶The headlights blinded me.For a second, all I could see was white light flooding my vision, swallowing the dark road, swallowing the night, swallowing everything except the outline of a man stepping out of the car. My heart leaped before my mind could catch up, and the shape in the light b

    ꧁♡ 𝔉𝔯𝔞𝔫𝔨 ♡꧂The hotel lobby looks exactly the same as it did on Eric’s wedding day, and that alone makes something dark twist inside my chest. The polished marble floor reflects the yellow light from the chandelier above, and for a brief second I see my own shadow stretched out in front of me
