Sienna

I was still lying on Jaxon’s chest, both of us were breathing heavily with sweat covering our bodies. His robe had slipped halfway off, and my skirt was a mess around my waist, but neither of us moved to fix it right away. The room smelled like heat, skin, and pizza grease we’d almost forgotten on the table.

Jaxon’s hand lazily traced circles on my thigh. “Come sleep in my room,” he said, voice low and smooth like it wasn’t even a suggestion. “The kids have already claimed yours.”

I laughed softly, though my face burned. “I can just take the visitor’s room. It’s safer that way.”

He turned his head, brushing his lips against my temple. “Safe is boring.”

I rolled my eyes, pretending to resist. “You just want me close so you can try something again.”

“Exactly.” He smirked, not even hiding it. “And I’m not sleeping alone after that.”

I tried to argue again, but it was weak and playful, more for show than anything else. Finally, I sighed and gave in. “Fine. But if one of the kids wa

  • We shouldn’t be doing this, Step-brother   Chapter 16: The House Was Ours

    SiennaThe front door clicked shut behind us, and for the first time all day, silence filled the house. No parents rushing around, no noise from the street, no distractions. Just me and Jaxon standing in the entryway, still flushed from the excitement of the football match.He tossed his bag onto the floor carelessly and looked at me with that sexy boyish grin, the one that always sent my stomach flipping. His hair was messy from the game, his shirt half untucked, sweat still clinging to his neck. I didn’t even have time to say anything before he stepped closer, closing the distance between us like he had been waiting for this moment all along.“You know,” he whispered, brushing a strand of hair behind my ear, “all through the game, I couldn’t stop thinking about this. About us… finally being alone.”My heart thudded hard against my ribs. The cheers, Ava’s voice echoing in the stands, even Kendra’s forced smiles...all of it melted away now. It was just us. His eyes darkened as he pull

    Jaxon sneaked quickly into his room before his mum could reach the hallway. My heart was pounding as I listened from behind my door. She didn’t notice anything out of place.The floor creaked softly, and then I heard her footsteps stop right outside my room. My door handle turned, and the door opened a little. My whole body froze.She peeped in, her eyes scanning the room. I had already curled myself under the blanket, pretending to be fast asleep. I forced my breathing to sound steady, almost exaggerated, just so it looked real. After a moment, she closed the door without saying a word.I exhaled slowly, trying to calm my racing heart.Next, I heard her steps move to Jaxon’s room. She paused, then said softly, “You’re still awake?”Jaxon’s voice came out calm, almost casual. “Yeah, I’m awake. Goodnight, Mum.”“Goodnight, son,” she said, and the door clicked shut.I stayed still, listening carefully until I heard her footsteps fade down the hall. Then silence. Finally, I heard the fai

    Dad’s voice carried up the stairs, firm and sharp.“Sienna! Jaxon! Downstairs. Now.”Then he headed down the stairs back to the living room.We both froze. My stomach tightened. The way he called our names wasn’t just casual. I glanced at my mirror, brushed down my hair quickly, and hurried out of my room. Jaxon was already at the top of the stairs, his jaw stiff. We exchanged a look, that silent what did we do this time? kind of look, before making our way down.When we reached the living room, Mom was already sitting there, her hands neatly folded on her lap. Dad stood beside her, looking way too serious for a weekday evening.“You two sit,” Dad instructed.I sank into the edge of the couch, my heart pounding like I was about to get grounded. Jaxon leaned back beside me, playing it cool, but I could tell even he was a little tense.Then Dad cleared his throat. “Your mom and I will be out of town this weekend. An urgent trip we can’t skip.”My eyes darted to Mom. She nodded, calm bu

    SiennaBy the time Jaxon pulled the car into the driveway, the sky had already turned a deep orange, the last light of the sun sinking behind the trees. After dropping Kendra off at her house and surviving her endless chatter that had left me drained, we were finally home.The front door opened before we even made it up the steps. Jaxon’s mum stood there with a dish towel in hand, her expression warm but laced with a hint of expectation.“There you two are,” she said, her eyes landing on me first. “Sienna, I thought you’d be home earlier to help out in the kitchen.”My chest tightened with guilt, and I fumbled for an answer, but Jaxon jumped in smoothly.“Practice ran late, Mum,” he said, tossing his bag over his shoulder as though that explained everything.She let out a small sigh, shaking her head before softening again. “Well, no matter. Go on, both of you. Freshen up and come down for dinner. It’s almost ready.”I nodded quickly. “Yes, ma’am.”Her eyes warmed, just a little, befo

    SiennaKendra had barely stopped fanning herself from cheering on the sidelines when she leaned closer to me. Her eyes followed Jaxon as he jogged off the field, Ava’s voice ringing loud in the air as she called his name and clapped like she owned the spotlight.Kendra sighed sharply. “Are they back together?”I blinked, caught off guard. “What?”She tilted her chin toward Ava, who was practically bouncing in place, smiling at Jaxon like he hung the moon. “Jaxon and Ava. Don’t play dumb, Sienna. You saw her out there screaming his name. She looked like his personal cheerleader.”I forced a shrug, trying not to let my nerves show. “She cheers for anyone who gives her attention. Don’t overthink it.”Kendra folded her arms, lips tightening. “Don’t tell me not to overthink. I like him, you know. And if Ava thinks she can just slide back into his life, she’s wrong.”Her words stung in ways I couldn’t admit. My chest tightened, but I brushed her off with a half-smile. “Relax, Kendra. You’re
