All Chapters of BROTHER'S HOT BEST FRIEND IS MY MATE: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

My heart pounded violently, my breath shallow, as I forced myself to keep my face neutral.Sienna’s eyes gleamed with cruel satisfaction, waiting for me to break.But I wouldn’t.I couldn’t.She knew.She knew I was pregnant.And now, she wanted to get rid of my baby.I swallowed the rising panic, my fingers trembling at my sides.I had to stay calm.If I showed weakness, she’d use it against me.I lifted my chin, forcing a mocking smirk.“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I said, my voice steady despite the fear creeping in.Sienna tilted her head, her smile widening, like she could see right through me.“Oh, Scarlet,” she purred, stepping closer. “Still trying to lie? Even after the doctor confirmed it?”I clenched my fists, nails digging into my palms.I needed a way out.A distraction.Because Sienna wasn’t just here to threaten me.She was here to destroy me.She leaned in, her voice dropping to a deadly whisper.“You should know something about me, dear sister,” she mused. “W

I stood frozen, my heart hammering against my ribs as I watched the scene unfold before me. My parents—proud, strong people—were kneeling on the floor, their voices desperate as they begged Alex for mercy.“Please, Alex,” my father pleaded, his voice rough with emotion. “We built this company from the ground up. You don’t have to do this.”My mother clutched his arm, tears streaming down her face. “We trusted you,” she whispered. “You were like family to us.”But Alex stood there, unmoved, arms crossed over his broad chest. His face was cold, unreadable.“This isn’t personal,” Alex said, his voice calm. “It’s just business.”Just business.My stomach twisted painfully. How could he say that? After everything?Ryan’s entire body trembled with fury. His face was red, his hands clenched into fists. “You lying son of a bitch!” he roared, lunging at Alex.The movement was so fast, so sudden, that I barely registered what was happening until Ryan’s fist swung toward Alex’s face. But Alex wa

Ryan gripped the steering wheel so hard his knuckles turned white. He kept glancing at me, concern written all over his face. Every so often, he’d let out a heavy sigh, a mixture of anger and regret twisting his features.“I should’ve known,” he muttered, eyes fixed on the road. “I should’ve checked his background before trusting him. This is all my fault.”I swallowed hard, forcing my gaze out the window. “It’s not your fault,” I managed softly. “He fooled everyone, Ryan. Not just you.”His jaw tensed. “I was the one who introduced him to the family. I invited him in… and now look at what he’s done.”I squeezed my hands together, heart aching. “You couldn’t have known he’d betray us. He played his part too well.”Ryan let out a bitter laugh. “He destroyed our company, humiliated our parents, and—” His voice caught, and he cleared his throat, casting me a pained look. “He hurt you the most.”My chest constricted at his words. Pain gnawed at my insides, the memory of Alex’s cold gaze c

“Scarlet, don’t do this.”Ryan’s voice was low, his grip on my arm firm as the rain continued to pour around us. His eyes were filled with worry, frustration, and the same helplessness I felt deep in my bones.“I have to,” I whispered, my voice barely audible over the sound of the storm. “It’s the only way.”His jaw clenched. “The only way for what? To throw yourself into the arms of that bastard? No. I won’t let you.”I sighed, exhaustion weighing me down. “Ryan, listen to me. I can fix this. I just need time. If I stay, I can find a way to get back what we lost. But you have to trust me.”“Trust you?” He let out a humorless laugh. “Scar, he owns everything now. You think he’s just going to hand it back because you ask nicely?”I looked away, my hands curling into fists. “No. But he trusts me enough to want me here. That’s my advantage.”Ryan shook his head, stepping closer. “This isn’t a game. You’re playing with fire, Scarlet. And Alex… he’s not the type to let you walk away once h

For the past few days, I had barely left my room.I didn’t eat. I didn’t speak.I simply existed.The hunger gnawed at me, but I ignored it. The nausea came and went in waves, my body growing weaker with each passing hour, but I welcomed it.It was the only thing I could control.Alex hadn’t checked on me, and I was glad.I didn’t want to see him. I didn’t want to hear his voice or feel the pull of the mate bond every time he was near.He had already taken everything from me. My family. My freedom.I wouldn’t let him take this last shred of control.But I should have known better.The door burst open without warning.I barely lifted my head from where I was curled up on the bed, exhaustion weighing down my limbs.“Enough.”His voice was sharp, commanding, but I refused to react.I heard him move closer, the air shifting as he loomed over me.“Scarlet.” His tone was lower this time, dangerous.I squeezed my eyes shut. Go away.A long silence stretched between us before I felt the mattr
