Forbidden Pleasures Brother-in-Law’s Secret 12 Almost Caught Emma’s POV The atmosphere in the house had shifted. It was no longer the warm, welcoming home I had moved into just a few months ago. Now, every hallway felt like a narrow tunnel, and every room felt like it was rigged with tripwires. The silence wasn't peaceful anymore; it was heavy, filled with the things we weren't saying. It was a Tuesday morning, and the air was thick with the scent of rain and laundry detergent. Emily had been in a whirlwind of activity, preparing for a dinner party she wanted to host over the weekend. She was in and out of the house, her mind preoccupied with guest lists and menu options. "I'm heading to the store!" she called out from the foyer, her heels clicking against the hardwood. "I forgot the organic flour and those specific olives Alex likes. I’ll be back in twenty minutes!" The sound of the front door closing and the engine of her car fading down the driveway felt like a starting pis

Forbidden Pleasures Brother-in-Law’s Secret 14The Good NewsEmma’s povThe next two days were a blur of fear. I felt like I was waiting for a bomb to go off. Every time my phone buzzed, I jumped. Every time a car pulled into the driveway, I thought it was Rachel coming to end my life. I couldn't eat, and I couldn't sleep.Then, Alex came to find me. He looked calmer than he had in weeks.

It wasn't fancy like the mansion I had lived in with Emily and Alex. The walls were thin, the kitchen was tiny, and the floorboards creaked whenever I walked. But it had a small balcony where I could sit in the mornings with a cup of coffee and watch the cars go by. It was a quiet place where I could hide. I spent most of my time trying to forget the look on Emily’s face and the sound of that bedroom door slamming shut.I hadn’t spoken a single word to my sister since that night. I had tried to call her, but my number was blocked. I tried to send her emails, but they were never answered. Even my parents couldn't fix it. They were angry and disappointed, stuck in the middle of a war they didn't ask for. They told me that Emily was a shell of herself, and that
