บททั้งหมดของ Twisted Ties: The Brother's Claim : บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

~Hannah~As soon as Nathan and Liam disappears into the house, I am pulled back to my reality. I am reminded of my pathetic life, of the fact that my ex lover just witnessed me getting hit by my husband. I could have endured anyone else witnessing this, but Nathan seeing me in this condition after I boldly broke up with him? Tell me, what could be worse than this? My pride is in shambles, if at all I have any left. A knock sounds on the door startling me. I become still. “Who?” I ask. No one is supposed to show up until after a few more hours. Liam made it so. Liam is a man of pride. He hates to wash his dirty linen in public. No one knows he hits me. He never does it in front of anyone. To the outside, he is a perfect man. To the people outside, he is a god; kind, wealthy and befitting of a role model title. Especially now that the Alpha elections are coming closer. He will not have anyone sabotage it. Hence, he keeps his private business, including hitting me, away from people's e

~Nathan~I don't know how many people wish their ex bad after a relationship goes sour. I happen to be among them. However, unintentionally. After Hannah broke up with me without a single thought, I was furious and off the top of my head wished that her marriage with my brother wouldn’t work out. Maybe my prayer was a little too harsh. I regretted it the instant I barged through that door and saw her at the mercy of her husband, my jackass brother. It was as if I knew something was going on because as soon as a servant informed me he took her to the old meeting room, my legs darted and I ran all the way there and barged in. It took me great willpower to not charge at my arsehole brother and knock off his teeths. I restrained myself not because of him, but because of Hannah. But then my heart fluttered. Truthfully it never stopped beating for Hannah in the last three years. However, I never showed it and I swọ́re to die with my feelings. She's now my brother's mate and wife and by t

~Hannah~Nathan turns and props himself up and I happen to lean up at the same time. We are facing each other. The closeness makes us pause, aware of the very tiny distance between us, between our lips. Our eyes meet and lock and I instantly realize we have been in this exact position before. I suck my belly in and hold my breath afraid he will hear how ridiculously fast my heart is racing. “Ma'am Hannah!” I hear a loud shrill, impulsively kick Nathan off and jump to my feet. He groans softly. From the corner of my eyes, I see a smirk curl up in his face and I cuss myself inside. Clara, my favorite maid in the house, is darting towards us in the most disheveled manner. Seeing her like that makes my stomach knots and I feel Nina’s soft whimper. Clara is prim and proper and knows the house rules. Only something urgent and serious will have her abandon her class and manners like this. “Ma'am Hannah! Where have you been! I have been looking all over for you!”I tighten my face. “What

~Nathan~I rush into the hospital after parking the car. The nurse at the reception tells me to check in one of the rooms for Hannah as she is speaking with the doctor. But I end up entering the wrong room. “Doc Hems, his blood does not match either.”“What?”“That means he's not the father? What do we do now? The little girl will die if she doesn't get a rare blood type.”Blood…little girl… I try to make sense of the discussion. “But Doctor Hems, if Liam is not Olivia's father, then who is?”Liam is not Olivia's father? My heart palpitates. Did Hannah cheat on Liam? No. Hannah would never. I did the maths and as the realization begins to dawn, I feel intense emotions overwhelm me. I barge out of there in a flash and return after picking up a face mask in the car. I approach the nurse I overheard talking earlier. “Hello. How may I help you?” “I want to donate blood. My blood type is rare.”“Oh thanks goddess. How did you know we are in need of the rare blood type?”“Is that so? I

~Hannah~He grips my dress and the fragile linen material rips apart. I wince as he grasp my wrist. “You are my wife and you belong to me. Does that jerk fuvk better than me? Does he have more influence than me? Answer me!”My body shakes as I wrap my hands around me in defiance. Liam is shocked. I have never defiled him. I have never denied him access to my body.He stops, darkness clouding his eyes. “A woman cheats on her husband and has been deceiving him with another man's daughter…what do you think you and Olivia will be reduced to, once another ear hears of this…”My body recoil. The thing I fear the most…My dignity tarnishing…Olivia facing backlash in the future…Suddenly my claws shoot out and my eyes glow golden. In one swift action, my claws dig into his chest. “Nina! Stay calm!” I beg Nina unable to control myself.Cathylene Durk makes everyone in the house take scent blockers and strength restrictor pills.
