All Chapters of Stepbrother Wants Me: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

Lily:After narrating the entire story to Mason, I let out a sigh.“That's crazy. What the hell?”“I know. I was shocked too.” I said, igniting the engine of my car.“So, she's better now, right?”Mason asked, his voice strained.“I guess you could say that. That's what the nurse said. I didn't really go see her.”“Why?”“Why? Well, maybe because she was unstable…what it she gets upset seeing me again? She's fine, that's all that matters.”“You're right.” Mason sighed.“Yeah.” I sighed, pulling out of the parking lot of the hospital. To say I was exhausted was an understatement. I had just spent two hours of my lufe worrying about Lyra. Something I thought I'd never do.Talk about a stressful day.It wasn't enough that Trevor knew about Mason and I, Lyra just had to be part of the mix.“Are you okay?” Mason asked softly.“I don't know what I am right now, I know for sure I need a long shower and to think about my life choices.”“You did nothing wrong, love. If anything Lyra is trouble

LILY:The warmth of Trevor’s mother’s hug hit me like a soft ambush, squeezing the air right out of my chest. She smelled like lavender and fresh bread, comforting scents I didn’t deserve to be wrapped in under false pretenses.“I’m so glad you came,” she said, pulling back to cradle my face in her hands like I was someone precious.“Thank you for having me,” I managed, forcing a polite smile. I could feel Trevor watching, waiting, probably assessing if I was about to expose him right here on the doorstep.His sister looked me over, arms crossed, expression calculating. She didn’t bother to hide the inspection. If Trevor was fire—dangerous, consuming—she was ice. Cold, sharp, assessing.“So,” she said, her tone clipped. “This is the girl you’ve been raving about.”I almost choked.Trevor was raving about me?Well, this was deeper than I thought.“Mara…please. Don't.” Trevor said.“Alright. I won't.” I said, and with that turned around and walked back into the house.Great. That's exac

LILY:Trevor lunged first, quick and reckless. Mason moved faster. His fist connected with Trevor’s jaw with a sharp crack that made me gasp. Trevor stumbled, caught his balance, and threw himself at Mason again.I shouted for them to stop, but neither heard me.They collided near the driveway. Trevor swung like someone acting on pure adrenaline. Mason fought with tighter, controlled movements. The cut on his lip kept reopening whenever his jaw tensed.Trevor managed to land a hit on Mason’s cheek. Mason stepped back, wiped the blood from his mouth with the back of his hand, and then grabbed Trevor by the front of his shirt. He slammed him onto the hood of the car so hard the metal dented slightly. Trevor grunted, struggling beneath him.“If you touch her again,” Mason said, voice low with anger.“Get off me,” Trevor yelled.“Stop!” I shouted. My throat burned. “Please. Stop.”Mason froze. The sound seemed to reach him this time. He let go and stepped back. Trevor slid off the hood

LilyThe way Mason had said those words ignited a kind of fear in me that I had never felt around him“You're not going to kill him, are you?”“What? No, but he's definitely going to wish he was dead once I'm through with him.”I let out a sigh of relief. It was hard enough that I had found out Trevor wasn't the man I thought it was today, I didn't want to find out about Mason now“What are you going to do then? And don't tell me not to worry about it because I am, and I will.”Mason dragged a hand down his face, exhaling like the answer was a weight he wasn’t sure he should let me carry. His shoulders rose and fell once, low, controlled, like he was fighting himself. Then his eyes found mine again. He looked tired, but determined.“I’m going to make sure Trevor can’t touch you again. In any way. Ever.”“That’s not an answer,” I whispered.“It’s the only one you’re getting tonight.”He turned as if to walk past me, but I stepped in front of him, blocking him at the bottom of the stai

Lily: Now that I was no longer going to work, and I barely had two weeks in Malibu, I wanted to spend doing the things I actually liked to do. One of which was swimming. Mason was currently in a phone conference meeting with his agent and an investor. I was missing him. You'd think 2 and a half months together, the honey moon phase would be done, but here I was missing him because he'd taken a conference call that was meant to last 2 hours The swimming pool water of the beach house was cold. The perfect kind of cold I took three laps in the water before coming back up for air. My mind suddenly drifted back to Trevor. It had been two days since the incident, and he still hadn't reached out to me It was a good thing for sure, but i wondered what he was doing. I also wondered why I thought he was a good guy… Even though I wasn't attracted to him, I actually enjoyed his company as a friend. I woukd have done anything for him. I guess it was for the best I knew what he was cap
