All Chapters of FALLING FOR THE WRONG BROTHER. : Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

I turned to face him. He’d thrown on gray sweatpants and a black t-shirt and he looked pissed. He moved to my side in three strides and slid an arm around my waist, pulling me close like he was ready to shield me from the whole world.Kendra’s gaze snapped to him and her face crumpled for half a second before the anger slammed back. Her eyes flickered from his protective hold on me to his hardened expression."Well," she spat, her voice trembling with a venom that made my skin crawl. "Isn’t this cozy."Landon’s eyes found mine. There was a silent question there, burning in the dark grey depths. Are you okay? I gave a tiny shake of my head. No. I was not okay.He looked back at Kendra and his expression turned to stone. "You need to leave.""I’m not going anywhere until we talk," she said, though some of the fight had drained from her voice, replaced by a wheedling tone. "Reaper, please. We need to talk about the baby. About us."His jaw flexed. "There is no us Kendra. There has never

Kasey’s POV I sat on the edge of the couch in the living room, with my hands clasped tight in my lap so Darren wouldn’t see them shaking. The afternoon light came through the big windows and made everything look too normal, too calm, while my stomach twisted into knots. I knew why he had shown up today. I knew exactly what he was going to say. But knowing it and hearing it were two different things.Darren leaned forward in the armchair across from me with his elbows on his knees, looking at me the way he always did."So," he said softly, "how’ve you been, Kasey?"I swallowed hard and tried to keep my voice steady. "I’ve been okay," I said. "What about you?"He gave a small shrug, but his eyes looked tired. "I’ve been okay mostly. Just… saddened by the sudden death of Aunt Marcia. It came out of nowhere, you know? One day she was there, the next she wasn’t. The whole family’s still trying to wrap our heads around it." He said.My chest tightened. I remembered Aunt Marcia from the

Kasey was curled up in Darren’s arms with her face buried against his chest. Her shoulders shook with these quiet, broken sobs that cut right through me.My stomach dropped so fast it felt like someone had punched me in the gut. For a second, I couldn’t even move my feet. My hands clenched into tight fists at my sides, and that old jealous fire roared back up in my chest. But underneath it, something else twisted around. Worry. Was she okay? Had their talk gone sideways? Or worse, had it gone so well that she was falling apart because she still loved him?"Kasey?" I forced my voice out.She didn’t even look up. If anything, her sobbing got worse. Her fingers clutched tighter into Darren’s shirt like she needed him, like she was holding on for dear life.My gaze snapped to Darren. "What did you do to her?"He ignored me. He just kept holding her, his own face buried in her hair.Something in me snapped."Hey!" I barked, taking a step into the room. "I’m talking to you, you piece of s

I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding."Thank you for saying that. It really means a lot," I admitted softly. "I spent so many nights thinking about what could’ve been with you. In my head, you were always the safe choice… the one that made sense. But Landon…" I paused and a small, almost shy smile formed on my face, "he’s the one who stayed. Even when I pushed him away, even when I made it hard. I just didn’t see it clearly until I was about to lose him.""He’s lucky to have you," he said. Then his tone shifted slightly and a protective edge slipped in. "And he better not mess that up. Because if he hurts you—" He exhaled through his nose, shaking his head with a faint smirk. "—I’ll have to deal with him. Properly. And trust me, I won’t be nice about it."I blinked at him, then let out a soft laugh. "Don’t threaten him on my behalf."Leo scoffed lightly, folding his arms. "I’m serious, Kasey. He better behave himself."I laughed again and that’s when the kitchen door swung o

"I’m ready to give up my life," I said. "Right here, right now. But you promise me one thing, William. You don’t touch anyone else. Not my dad, not Tyler, not Howard. And sure as hell not Kasey."William’s lip curled. He didn’t say yes or no. He just stepped closer with the barrel aimed right at my forehead. My knees felt weak, but I slid off the chair slowly and dropped onto the floor."Please," I said, looking up at him. "I’m begging you. Take me if you have to. But let the others walk out of here. They didn’t plan this. It was me. All me from the start."Before William could answer, Tyler dropped to his knees too. "No," he said loud enough for everyone to hear. 'Kill me instead. Reaper is about to be a dad. He’s got a kid coming. I don’t want my sister robbed of the man she loves and the father of her baby. She needs him. And he’s the future president of the club. A lot of guys depend on him to keep things running, to hold the brotherhood together. Me? I’m just the second in comma
