ENTANGLED WITH HER ALPHA STEPBROTHERS のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 131 - チャプター 140

SCARLETT“I get it, I fucked up, but I corrected it hours ago so why’re you still on my case?!” I clutched the laptop at my desk like it would keep the murderous rage in me from lashing out at Logan.“Because the next time you forward confidential information like that, it might be to a competitor, not the entire security team that’s bound from sharing that because of NDAs!” he yelled back, his suit tightening around his biceps as he folded his arms.“Well, I’m a makeup artist and not a fucking trained secretary so it’s your fault I’m incompetent in this position since you forced it on me!” I slammed the laptop shut, my last nerve faltering.“This shit is common sense, Scarlett and that’s a petty excuse for someone who attended college,” he hissed, “except you were too busy spreading your legs to learn a single thing.”I growled under my breath and got to my feet, banging my fists on the table since I couldn’t use them to punch a hole through his head for blatantly insulting me.“Get

SCARLETTIf Blake’s face was the last thing I saw before I dropped dead, it’d be more fulfilling than eternal peace.He was unbelievably beautiful, crafted from something ethereal and rare.“Are you going to keep staring at me subtly through that mirror or do I get your stamp of approval on these shades?” Blake asks, breaking into a smile that steals the air right out of my lungs.I stutter at first when I try to speak, then I take a deep breath to gather myself.“There’s absolutely nothing you don’t look great in and that’s unfair,” I whine instead of simply telling him those shades make him look like a vogue model, he doesn’t get a compliment after making me lose my ability to breathe.He laughed, heartily before taking my hand and pulling me out of the store, making my skin tingle until we walked into a clothing store that was littered with designer dresses and shoes alike. The price tags on them made me think my brain was jumbling up the numbers.Attendants lined up and chorused t

LOGANThe dreadful shadows under my eyes were proof of last night’s struggle.I hissed in pain as I turned away from the mirror, a wicked ache slicing through my guts as my toothbrush slipped from my fingers. I gripped the wash basin and cussed in a string of the little Italian I’d picked up from Ashley because English wouldn’t suffice at the moment.When the pain didn’t subside, I had to wrap a hand firmly around my lower abdomen and place a hand on the wall to support myself as I practically stumbled back into my bedroom. I didn’t even get to my bed before I slumped on the carpet.The pain I felt was far too intense to stomach, and it’d kept me awake all damned night.As I remained curled up on the floor, groaning weakly as the pain grew, I wondered what could possibly be the cause. I hadn’t felt anything like it before, so the only thing I could attribute it to was that the curse was punishing me for using Scarlett’s ability to control it as a loophole.It made sense because she wa

SCARLETTHis smile was blinding, heart melting too.“Hey beautiful,” his boyish grin remained as he crossed the cafe to meet me by the door, enveloping me in a warm hug that instantly dissolved the anger I’d been carrying earlier, “you’re here!”“I’d have come here the very second you sent me that picture,” I whispered hotly into his ear before pulling away from the embrace.Immediately, the excitement in his eyes was replaced with a familiar burning desire that I was no stranger to.Like he couldn’t help himself, he leaned forward, dipping his head like he was going in for a kiss and I had to quickly avert my face and playfully spin him around to remind him that we had an audience.Customers and employees alike, the latter being aware that we were step siblings.“My bad,” he mumbled, stifling laughter as it registered that he’d lost himself for a moment.“Come on, lover boy,” I teased, walking ahead of him and leading the way to his office while being fully aware that his eyes were g

ALEXEver since Logan’s false allegations, I’ve been trying my hardest to put some much-needed distance between myself and Scarlett. The only reason I approached her was in a bid to help her wiggle free of Logan’s self-centred employment, and nothing else.And since she didn’t give me the time of day, it was a ridiculously easy task to maintain my distance.Yet, each time I caught sight of her, I couldn’t help but wonder if the insane magnetic force that pulled me towards her qualified as love. I didn’t want to admit that any possibility existed that I was in love with her as Logan pointed out, but the emotions she stirred in me were so foreign and overwhelming.What did any of that signify? An obsessive feeling of attraction and lust, maybe, but not love. I knew for a fact that I was incapable of falling in love, I was simply driven by my insatiable hormones.My wolf didn’t care that I was working through those emotions and trying to stay away from her until they were resolved. He wa
