All Chapters of My New Stepbrother, My Mate: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Liana’s POVIn preparation for the mask party, I have been going out to not be left, which is very stressful for me because I have to prepare my dance with anyone that chooses to dance with me. The whole process was a very difficult one, and I just want it to come to an end because I am very stressed.Jace is still ignoring me, and my relationship with Ezra is getting better, and he is getting a little more comfortable around me. Even after getting close to him, I don’t see anything bad that he has done to make Jace treat him the way he always does. I know that I am still not aware of the whole story and why he is being like that towards him, but I still feel like it doesn’t give him the right to treat his relative that wayjust because his car is the Alpha.“I don’t know why I’m not finding this whole thing fun.” Ezra looked shocked to hear what I said because that was the most trendy party back then until it got canceled. Maybe because the hype is longer than the way it used to be, t

Writer's povWhen both of them got back to the house, Liana was still not feeling too well.“What happened to her?” "Alpha Damon?" he asked the moment he saw them walking into the house. He looked very worried about her, and it made Allison wonder why he is so caring towards Liana even though she's not his biological daughter.Allison hated it so much that Liana was getting so much attention from both father and son because that is the kind of feeling she wants for herself and not for anyone else. Even though she pretends not to notice, she sees the side eyes and the little stares both of them give each other, which are very flirtatious. She didn't want to start imagining too much between Jace and Liana because they don't even talk to each other as much as they used to, and she hadn't seen too much closeness between both of them, just that the way they behave sometimes can be really suspicious.Jace helped Liana to her room, which made Alison very jealous because of her feelings towar

Jace's POVAll through the party I was trying my best not to notice her presence here. I tried to be occupied with different things so that I wouldn’t notice her here, but it was very difficult for me to do that knowing that she was having a conversation with Mark. He is someone that we don’t associate with because the Royal family has a kind of past with his family, and he’s always speaking ill about them.I wanted to go there several times, but I stopped myself because I don’t want to have any conversation with Mark, and seeing her laugh with him is so upsetting.So the moment the party ended, I thought that was a perfect opportunity to leave with her.“Jace!” She yelled at the top of her voice, forcing her hand out of my grip. I was completely speechless; I didn’t know what to say when she yelled at me like that because I realized that I was really hurting her.“What were you two talking about?” I asked her. I really don’t know why I was asking her this question right now because I

Jace's POVI was hoping that today we would get along even better, only to end up having a misunderstanding with her as usual. I can’t believe she is so unreasonable, and she allowed someone that speaks so badly about us to come into the house.Mark’s family and my family are sworn enemies, so I do not expect his relationship with her to be a good one because it might just be his way of trying to get close to us and not for a good reason.I could understand that also—then we were getting to know each other, and it wouldn’t be easy for her to keep her distance from him—but I expected her to take my side and not his side in the arguments, but she blindly supported him without thinking of how I would feel about her actions, which was really bad. For a moment there I felt very stupid.She is always doing this; even when I had a misunderstanding with Ezra, she took his side without thinking of how I felt about it. I guess you value being friends with them more than she values being friends

Liana’s POVFor a moment I didn’t want to go back inside again because of the misunderstanding I had with my mom. I know that I said a lot of things that hurt, but I was only saying it based on the way I felt at that moment.There was a minute of silence between Jace and me, which gave me the opportunity to think clearly about the situation between Mom and me. I hate how I judge myself every time I open my mind to someone I know. Most of the time I end up saying a lot of things that might come out as being rude and hurtful, but they are just things that I have kept inside for a very long time.After thinking for a while, I decided to go back to the room because it was so cold outside and I needed to get warm before sleeping. While I was heading upstairs, Mom was still sitting on the couch in the sitting room, but I made sure not to look in that direction as I headed upstairs.I closed the room immediately after I got inside. There’s no way I’m letting her come here after that misunder
