All Chapters of Forbidden: Falling For My Stepbrother: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Lucian’s POV I definitely didn't fall in love with her, right? Ethan didn't give me the answer I wanted, and I didn't want to prove it by probing further because that would raise his suspicion. I'm not ready to answer queries. I would just ask someone else or my phone. I realized I have been searching for weird things online because of Violet. "How do you know you love someone?" I typed discreetly. The results were full of cheesy words that hurt my eyes. I was stupid to think the Net would give me something useful. It worked other times though. I even used it last night. So why does it seem useless now? I mindlessly scrolled down until my eyes caught a short post. True love is six words; No matter what, I got you. That intrigued me. I was staring at the words absentmindedly, thoughts running through my head but all in one direction, or do I say, all on one person. Violet, her shimmering blue eyes always haunted my thoughts, especially her aggreived expression whenev

Violet's Pov The mild pounding of my head as I slowly opened my eyes made me shut it back with a wince. I let out a loud moan of frustration. Good for you Violet, drinking when you have exams! I opened my eyes again, ignoring the pain that came with it, and glanced at the digital clock in my bedside drawer. The time was 6:47am and I had a paper by 9:00am. Good job Violet Ryder! Groaning as I sat up, I looked around my room, which seemed rather too tidy. I came home drunk... Wait, how did I get to my room? I was with Lucian, at the beach... Having fun over that heavenly tasting cake and other treats. Oh! And the wine... I got drunk! "... Lucian Archer, I like you!" "Oh! Oh! Oh my gosh! Violet, you have gone crazy!" I scrambled out of my bed rather hastily, as if to run away from my drunk memories. Oh God! I said that to Lucian. I told him I liked him. What do I do? He's going to think I'm a joke now. It was supposed to be a sexual relationship, but I let my feelings ge

Violet's POV I might be used to attending such events, but I'm always out of spotlights. Tell me why those things are lighting our way if they are not malfunctioning? "My hand is so cold. I'm nervous, I think I'm floating. I'm probably high" Layla blabbered out nervously in a low voice. I took her hand in mine, two cold hands holding and comforting each other as we took our seats in the second row. Mira must have pulled all the strings to get us these seats. "Oh my, it's starting" Layla whispered, eyes glued to the stage. The musky scent that invaded my nostrils just as I was going to focus on the walkway made me turn, eyes locking with the familiar dark orbs that I know too well. "You're here too" Lucian waved at Layla, who waved back excitedly before turning back to the walkway. "Why are you here?" I whispered, a small frown gracing my face. "Ease, you look more cute when frowning though" he whispered back and pointed at Nathan beside me. "He wanted to see his girl

Violet's POV My head laid on Lucian's glistening biceps, we were both panting hard trying to catch our breath from the passionate race we had just concluded. Lucian's fingers were drawing circles on my bare back as we sat in silence. His heart beat was fast, even after about ten minutes of being in that quiet position. Is that a sign that he was sincere with his confession? That he, Lucian Archer, really likes me, Violet Ryder? Whatever, I can't linger on those feelings. I have just a few months to indulge myself in whatever was going on between us before I leave. "What is going on in your head?" He broke the silence, his fingers going into my messy hair, giving my scalp a tingling massage. "Nothing" "I could hear the wheels turning in your brain. Whatever it is, just know that there is no escaping me. Ever." I leaned down and bit his chest, trying to cover up my shock. It seemed like he could read me, whatever was going on in my head was like a transparent glass t

Lucian's POV It feels so good. Coming in terms with my feelings felt like a huge burden had been lifted off me. Coding chapters of my game went on smoothly during my work hours. I couldn't wait for the day to be over, so I could slip into Violet's room again. Fuck! I couldn't wait till she agrees to let us reveal our relationship to our parents. Wait, did I just say reveal our relationship? We didn't even label it. Whatever, I just know that she's mine. I don't care what Dad or her Mom think about us. I have to work harder, so if that man decides to threaten me with his money, I can stand against him. Just a little more, until my game is launched. I've gotten over two million reservations, but I can't be very confident. I have to make enough money to spoil Violet. Why is she not back from school? I can remember she had only one paper today, which is also her last paper. I unlocked my phone to check her current location. I'm not being creepy for putting a tracking bug on he
