All Chapters of Make Me Yours, Brother: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

I couldn't tell how long Jay drove before we got to our destination. It could be hours, days, or even weeks. I was just too lost in thoughts that by the time he pulled to a stop, I had to blink, as if transported back from a journey. Jay tapped his fingers on the steering wheel and grinned. “We're here.” I looked around. We were currently parked in a mall lot, which was probably the only place our car wouldn't get towed if we left it for a long time. There wasn't anything different about this place. If I didn't know better, I would have thought we were in my city. “It looks the same.”“But the people aren't.” He got down from his side and walked around the car to open the door for me. “We can be whoever we want to for the rest of the day. No one knows us here.”I nodded, accepting the hand he reached out for me, smiling when he wrapped it around mine.“Are you trying to bully me?” I joked, looking at my hand that had gotten swallowed by his.He made a face. “Says the greatest bull

Jay reached out to me and placed his hand on the back of my palm. He rubbed it and smiled. “Baby, I never lie about things like this. You're breathtaking anytime and every time.” I felt a flush rise to my cheeks, and my heart skipped a beat as I met his gaze for a moment before looking away, shy. My skin tingled where he touched me, and I could feel my pulse racing.“You're the most beautiful Omega in the entire world, and I'm not saying this because you're my mate and lover. I'm saying this because it's the truth. You will always hold the first place in my heart.”My cheeks felt like they were on fire, and my breath caught in my throat as Jay's words washed over me. I couldn't even look him in the eyes, my eyelashes fluttering shut as I tried to process the emotions swirling inside me. His hand on mine was warm and gentle, sending sparks of electricity through my body. I felt like I was melting into his touch, my entire been responding to his words and his presence.I squeezed my le

The insides weren't as packed as I thought it would be. Most of the people were sitting on chairs, reading and conversing in hush tones, so we were basically the only ones walking through the aisles.I followed Matt as he led us deeper into the library. We wandered through aisles stacked high with tomes, the soft glow of reading lamps casting a warm, golden light on the covers. It was so magical, the feeling like being transported into another realm. Matt's hand remained in mine, our fingers intertwined, sending sparks of electricity through my body.As we walked, he would occasionally stop, drawn to a particular title or cover. He would pull a book off the shelf, his eyes scanning the blurb before handing it to me, a silent request for my opinion. I would nod or shake my head, and he would either add it to the growing pile with me or return it to its place.We explored the fantasy section, Matt's eyes shining with excitement as he devoured the titles. He pulled out a beautifully illu

He removed his seatbelt and crawled into my arms, burying his face in my chest. “Do you know how long I sat next to my window each night, waiting for you to return?” He sobbed, hiccuping with each word. I placed my hand on the back of his hair. “It's okay, baby. Believe me, I only have you in my heart. I will never, ever break your heart. I won't cheat on you.”The thoughts of that had never crossed my mind. He was all I had been seeking. I couldn't bear to do anything to hurt the one I love.He raised his head to look at me, misty golden eyes staring straight at my own. “Promise?”“On my mother's grave.”He smiled, nodded, then hugged me. “I promise too, Jay. I will never break your heart.”We stayed that way for a long time until he fell asleep in my arms. I held him to myself until my arms started going numb.I didn't wake him up. Instead, I carried him out of the car, walked around to his side, and placed him on his arse. I put his seatbelt on before I hurried over to my side, th

After Debra left, I thought about our conversation. She was right. I needed to do something, to be productive for Jay so he wouldn't feel like I was a burden to him. I know they spoiled me growing up, but that didn't mean I couldn't learn if I wanted. All I had to do was learn to cook and do the dishes and laundry, right? Then after that, I will learn to clean the house. That's easy. I can always go to the university after having kids. Let's see… What courses should I go for? Creative writing? That sounds dope. With my future planned, all that I needed to do was execute it, and what better way to do that than to cook tonight for Jay? Dad's not returning home because of his business trip. They no longer come as a surprise to us. We now look forward to it, even. It was the first time in a month that he was going on a trip. Ever since Jay started working, he had been spending more time at home with me, and I suspected it was because he kept Jay occupied at the office. It was his way o
