Все главы STEPBROTHER'S PUNISHES ME EVERYNIGHT: Глава 221 - Глава 230

Mia's POV"Tell your brothers to bring my children back," I snarled, my voice shaking with barely controlled rage. "Right now, or I swear on everything holy, I will kill you first and hunt down the rest."I mean every word. Every single word.Xavier held up his hands in a placating gesture. "Mia, they're fine. They're safe. Nathan and Rolex are probably playing games with them right now."Playing games? With children they've never met?"Playing games?" I laughed bitterly. "They kidnapped three terrified children from their home!""They're not terrified," Xavier insisted. "They're having fun. Getting to know their fathers."Fun. He thinks this is fun."You don't know that! You don't know anything about my children!"Our children. But I refuse to acknowledge that right now.Xavier gestured toward the unconscious intruder on my living room floor. "And this house obviously isn't safe. If we hadn't been here, that man could have taken Mira."He's right about that. But I'll be damned if I ad

Mia's POVAfter my tears finally subsided, Tristan pulled back to look at me, his expression serious and concerned."Mia," he said gently, "why are you being so soft on them?"Soft? I don't feel soft."What do you mean?" I asked, wiping my eyes with the back of my hand."After everything they did to you," he said, his voice growing harder, "you should be demanding their heads on silver platters."Maybe I should be. Maybe I'm not angry enough.Tristan's jaw clenched as he continued. "I gave up on you five years ago because I thought they would never hurt you. I thought their love for you would protect you from their stupidity."He gave up on me. He actually gave up on me."You what?" I whispered.He could have fought for me. He could have saved me."I was wrong," he said, his voice filled with regret. "I never expected them to hurt you like that. To destroy you so completely."But they did. They destroyed everything."I should have fought for you then," Tristan continued. "But I can fi

Sean's POVHaving Mia in the house again felt like a miracle I didn't deserve. She was here, taking care of me, and for the first time in five years, I had hope that we might actually have a chance.This is it. This is my opportunity to remind her how good we were together.She'd been checking on me every few hours, taking my temperature, monitoring my vitals with that focused professionalism I'd always found incredibly sexy.She cares. Even if she won't admit it, she still cares about me."How are you feeling?" she asked during her evening rounds, placing a cool hand on my forehead.Like I'm in heaven every time you touch me."Better," I said, letting my voice sound weaker than I actually felt. "But still pretty rough."A little exaggeration never hurt anyone.Her brow furrowed with concern. "Your fever should have broken by now. Let me get you some more medication."Perfect. More reason for her to fuss over me."Mia," I said softly, catching her hand as she turned to leave. "Thank y

Mia's POVI grabbed the nearest object—a decorative vase—and hurled it at the door where they'd been standing moments before.Get out! Get out and never come back!"Mia, please!" Xavier's voice came from the hallway. "Let us explain!"Explain? There's nothing to explain.I picked up a lamp this time, throwing it with all my strength. "GET OUT!"How dare they? How dare they touch me like that?"We didn't mean for it to go that far," Nathan called through the door.Didn't mean it? You pinned me to a wall and tried to force me!"I don't care what you meant!" I screamed, grabbing another object to throw. "You're monsters! All of you!"Just like five years ago. Just like when you destroyed my life before."Mia, we're sorry—" Rolex's voice now.Sorry? You think sorry fixes this?"I will never forgive you for this!" I shouted, my voice breaking with rage and pain. "NEVER!"Never. Not this time. Not after what you just did."I'm going to make you pay for hurting me," I continued, grabbing my

Nathan's POVI moved quickly to block Mia's path to the door, my heart racing with desperation. We couldn't let her leave like this—not with these suspicions eating away at her trust in us.If she walks out that door believing we're working with murderers, we'll never get her back."Mia, wait," I said urgently, holding up my hands. "Please don't go."She looks so angry. So betrayed. We did this to her."Get out of my way, Nathan," she snarled, her eyes flashing with fury. "I'm done with all of you."No. Not again. I can't lose her again."We can't keep hiding things from her," I said, turning to face my brothers. "Not anymore."The truth. She deserves the truth.Xavier's eyes widened in alarm. "Nathan, don't—""She needs to know," I interrupted firmly. "If we keep lying to her, we'll lose her forever."Forever. The word tastes like ash in my mouth."You can't tell her everything," Rolex warned. "It's too dangerous."Too dangerous for who? For her, or for our mission?"I'm going to tell
