Nate's POV. 

Nothing scared me as much as watching a man who was actively involved in my life suddenly become a monster but not only that, denying it through his teeth. 

It didn't help that he had recruited people into his life who didn't even know the first thing about him; instead they believed that he was the best thing since sliced bread. 

I would never just understand this stupidity and blind trust that they exhibited towards a man that should be sent into the dungeon forever. 

"Oh, by the time we are done tomorrow, we are going to the grave site and getting this done and over with. I hope by the time that is concluded, you will be happy right?" I smirked. 

If he thought that threatening me with my scholarship was going to make me dance to his tune, he had a great shock coming for him because he was going to see me in ways he never imagined. 

My mother was going to get her Justice and I didn't care how long it would take. I was biding my time. 

"Oh, you cannot just leave, because there has been a new policy in school, I'm sure you're not aware of that." My father started, "they are planning to withdraw your scholarship but are just waiting until you have concluded the Nationals before they deliver the news to you." 

My father was everything else but a liar especially when it came to education. "You must be kidding me right now."

"Oh, I wouldn't. As a good father, I figured that it wouldn't be proper if my son was stranded so I provided a solution... You are going to stay here with me, complete your studies, go wherever you want and then..."

"Nothing. I am not going to stay under the same roof as you. In case you have forgotten who you are. If they had the slightest idea they would be out, but I guess you have mastered the art of covering your tracks." I commended him. 

Jessica's eyes bored into mine and I felt a rush of heat mingle with annoyance. She wasn't supposed to be present when I was having a meltdown. I hated the fact that she could have something against me in school and I wasn't that impenetrable person that she knew. 

She was smart and I could see the wheels turning in her head. She was probably trying to figure out why I hated my father so much and that was one of the things I disliked the most. 

"Cut down on your anger. Cut down on your drinking, smoking and the rest, you would have been able to call the shots if you had not wasted your time on things that do not even matter." Seth spoke. 

Jessica's Mom grabbed his hand, pulling him away immediately. 

"Well, well..." Jessica began, ruining the somber mood.

I had quite a number of things to say to her but I control my speech because I didn't want her to commit suicide. 

I was mad, not stupid. 

"Don't try to strike up a conversation with me right now if you don't want to be burnt alive." I warned her, 

Jessica smiled ruefully, "I'm sorry that you have a friction with your dad but can we just establish some ground rules?" She wrung her hands.

That was cute. 

What? 

"What the hell do you want right now? You already know that I'm just a step brother. Why don't you get over that obsession? You know that it would never work, especially with the family dynamic between us." I decided to hit her with the harsh truth so that she backed up. 

Just as I thought, she backed up, squared her shoulders, and glared at me. "You are just nothing but an asshole. I don't even know why I bought that to be civil with you. So what, I believed that you didn't think enough. I also appreciated your art and that's my crime?" She flung her hands in the air. 

I stepped a little closer, trying to be intimidating. "That's not the reason why you are mad. You are mad because I have been able to get under your skin. I rejected you so I understand how women behave when they are told that they are not enough. I don't blame you for whatever it is you are up to." I nodded, flicking my fingers in a shooing motion. 

Her eyes blazed with so much anger that I thought that she could combust. 

Her slender fingers pointed at me. "You know what? Suit yourself. You are staying in the guest room, my room is out of bounds, and we do not have to cross paths, because I don't even see how I am supposed to discuss with someone who acts as though something is missing in his brain." 

The insult washed over me, causing me to be a little upset at the way she stood her ground refusing to be intimidated. 

"Call off this act before it lands you in trouble. I'm your elder brother, you know?" I decided to annoy her even more. 

Surprisingly, this time she didn't react, instead merely focused her attention on me, "I know what this is. You are miserable and lonely, I don't know how long it's going to take, but, I am sure that you are going to beg to have me in your corner." She smiled and walked away. 

I snorted at her display of audacity because it was not even believable. 

She was one of the people that could only try to be tough, yet I didn't have it in them still. 

"I'll be waiting, kid sis!" I called after her. 

She stopped just right at the foot of the stairs, "you are a pain. I hope it helps you sleep at night." She whispered,

I opened my mouth to shoot a retort at her, but heard the click of a tongue. "Can I speak to you for one second Nate?" Jessica's Mom spoke softly.

  • Unhealthy Obsession With My Stepbrother    Chapter 39

    Jessica's POV. This reminded me of high School but most annoyingly the part that I never wanted to remember because it always made me feel sick to my stomach wondering how people decided to make other lives a living help because they believe that they could. Initially, I didn't think that it was necessary for anybody to go ahead and to do whatever they liked to others because they believed that they were somehow on a status different from the rest. The only thing that I kept looking at was the fact that they would never be anyone like me to defend myself. "I don't want to talk to you. There are polite ways of approaching a person in case you are suddenly forgotten." I reminded her. "I didn't ever come to you so that I could be insulted." She hissed.I adjusted my arms to face her directly. From the way I have seen my mother cower in the presence of the truth, especially when she could have fought hard for it, I decided not to take such steps and become even a more drastic coward

  • Unhealthy Obsession With My Stepbrother    Chapter 38

    Jessica's POV. The stares finally reduced as soon as the lecturer worked in but I could still feel my heart pounding right at my back as I tried to figure out what the hell was going on. I kind of knew that there was something deeper than I should have allowed it to go. Hazel's gaze kept making me anxious because there was no way I was getting out of an interrogation with her and everyone knew that she could be dramatic whenever she wanted to be. I was very tired about whatever she was about to say already because it made me start thinking about what had gone wrong and how I could make things even better.I was also tired of listening here and there or looking for solutions when I could just do the right thing by relaxing.Nobody had to know what I was going through or also figure out what was between Nate and I. I couldn't even place my fingers on it.Mr Simpson walked into class again but this time I had forced my attention back on him or else I would face another form of disgr

  • Unhealthy Obsession With My Stepbrother    Chapter 37

    Jessica's POV. School didn't seem as exciting as I envisaged because I knew that my mom was in a dilemma but just didn't know how to tell me the truth and no matter how much I would ask, I knew she was going to come up with a litany of excuses. It irritated me that she was covering up when she could just come out straight and tell me what the hell she was battling with. I was also very content with whatever I had but right now I felt angry coming to school because my mother didn't deserve to be treated poorly by any man no matter who they were.I didn't think I cared about whatever anybody wanted to do to me but as long as my mother was involved I was going to fight tooth and nail to make sure that she emerged a winner. There was nothing that I could do to stop the attachment I had with my mom..."Hey..." Someone placed their arms around my neck causing me to move forward and backward as I turned to see who the person might have been. Roosevelt shot me a small smile. "I'm so sorr

  • Unhealthy Obsession With My Stepbrother    Chapter 36

    Nate's POV. I felt my cock harden at her innocence shining in her eyes as she saw me shirtless. I couldn't sleep and I wanted to reach out to her to see how she handled my father's threats last night.I was only checking on my younger sister. *'Were you?'*' my subconscious spoke to me. That was one of the weirdest things that I had been feeling lately. I felt attached to her and wanted to protect her with everything I had got. But her mom looked like she was in danger or just a female thing. I was thankful for the destruction because I didn't know what was budding between both of us. *'oh you do, but you just don't want to admit it.'* Again my subconscious was my greatest opp, I didn't know what I had done to deserve the nuisance it had been showing the past few weeks. Most of the people who had come my way had been very flirty, but she was one of the people who took everything and stride and kept watching carefully just to see what I had to do. "I'll go check up on my mom." S

  • Unhealthy Obsession With My Stepbrother    Chapter 35

    Jessica's POV. Ding!!! "Girllll... I don't know what you are doing over there but I know that you need to attend the party of the summer!" Hazel screamed through the receiver making me roll my eyes in annoyance. Of course she was going to come up with shenanigans that only she was blessed with! It was something that she enjoyed doing that sometimes pissed me the hell off but I tried to keep calm and pretend like it was nothing to me when actually it made me feel weird. "Hazel, can you tone down your excitement? It's kind of too early, don't you think?" I asked. "You must be kidding me right now. So the frat party is going to be held tonight and as you know everyone is invited. Did you know that Roosevelt would be there? It's going to be a plus for us because now we can finally have a chance to be at the same standards with other girls!" She was speaking as though she was talking about the best thing to ever happen to mankind. "And I'm guessing the only time you could call me f

  • Unhealthy Obsession With My Stepbrother    Chapter 34

    Jesica's POV. A burst of exhilaration rushed through me as I looked at the man who decided to help me out even without calling him. I was beginning to see Nate in a different light and I didn't even want this to be dim. I loved what I was seeing and I knew that I was in for some trouble as my heart kept sky rocketing ignoring all the warning signals that I was trying to give to it. "Are you serious right now? Eavesdropping on conversations at night now are you?" Seth tried to shame him for helping me out and I was so disappointed that my mother had gone ahead to choose someone like this who had been nothing but stupid. If there was a way for me to handle this situation I would have done it even without anybody's help, and I knew that it was practically the same for them but at the same time I was also very careful so that I didn't let my feelings show. Nate flared his nostrils, crossing his arms causing his muscles to bulge and my eyes focused on that action. It was wonderful t
