All Chapters of Trapped Between Two Brothers : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

~Camelia POV~I smiled as we walked toward the elevator, Camelia beside me. She seemed lost in thought, her steps slower than usual, and I couldn’t help but wonder what was going through her mind.Maybe I had gone too far with what I did in the office.When I saw the hairpin while passing the shop earlier, I’d kept wondering how it would look on her. Now that it rested neatly in her hair, I knew buying it had been worth it. She looked so good in it that I had to keep reminding myself to face forward.I turned to look at her once more. Her gaze met mine for a second before she quickly looked away which made a smile pulled at my lips.We got into the elevator, and she stood beside me holding my tab in both hands. It was obvious she was avoiding my eyes even though she knew I had been looking at her the whole time.Maybe I really had gone too far with the hairpin. "You don't like it?" I asked, finally looking away from her.She looked up at me, then turned to use the mirror-like wall of

~Camelia POV~Luke reached for my hand and pulled me gently to my feet. "Come on, Camelia. We're leaving." My heart jumped when his fingers wrapped around mine, the warmth of his palm a stark contrast to the icy atmosphere of the room. But before we could move, Mrs. Stone’s sharp voice cut through the air like a blade. "What sort of nonsense is this?"Luke stopped mid-stride. His mother stood up, her posture rigid and her eyes glaring at him before shifting to me with a look of open dislike. "Why do you keep refusing Gwen over someone like her?" she demanded, her voice rising in frustration. "What does she have to offer you? Nothing. A girl like this will only cheat on you later and bring shame to this family. Didn't you hear what her ex-fiancé and that lady said about her at the dinner party?"Her words hit me like a physical blow, knocking the wind right out of me. My chest tightened so much it hurt, and a thick lump formed in my throat that made it nearly impossible to breathe. I s

~Camelia POV~I let out a deep breath to calm myself, but it wasn't helping. I wished I had my phone. I would've called Luke, and I'm sure he wouldn't waste time coming to get me.But Asher had somehow taken my phone when I wasn't looking.The elevator door in front of us opened, and Asher stepped into it, shifting me softly in his arms. His hand rested close to my ass, and I was sure he was enjoying every bit of this."Nice ass, cupcake," he mumbled as if he could read my thoughts, and I felt a sick feeling in my gut."Put me down," I shouted at him, my hand pounding against his back now. I didn't know his aim for bringing me to his house, but I wouldn't give him the satisfaction of it.The elevator chimed as it slid open, revealing the luxury interior of his apartment. I would've admired it if I wasn't so angry that I wanted to burn it to the ground along with its owner.I wouldn't blame him for this. It wasn't his fault that Anya drugged me and made me have a one night stand with h

~ Camelia POV ~A cold chill ran down my spine as my mind replayed the kiss, and I fought the temptation to touch my lips as though his were still against them. The thought alone created a warmth between my thighs, and I lifted my hand discreetly, giving my cheek a soft slap to bring myself back to reality.I can't be reacting or thinking about Asher. I shouldn't, especially when Luke had just mentioned that he does this with other women. He was probably playing a game with me, and the thought alone made me feel stupid for allowing him kiss me.I let out a low breath to calm myself and focused my gaze on the window, resting my body against it as I admired the blurred view of the city.I didn't know when I had fallen asleep, but the sound of the car door closing woke me up. I sat upright quickly, looking through the window to see that we were already at the company and Luke had gotten out of the car.I got out of the car, closing the door behind me as I steadied Luke's tablet in my han

~ Luke POV ~I sank into my chair and looked back at the monitor screen in front of me, trying to get my focus back on the stock exchange and the investment trade between the Stone family and other companies.I had been doing that before I got distracted by the noise, but the more I tried to focus, the more my mind drifted to Camelia.The way the water on her shirt had made her underwear visible. Followed by the look on her face when she noticed I was distracted and staring at it.The thought sent a chill down my spine and I shoved a hand through my hair, trying to get my mind away from it, but the tingling feeling of wanting to step closer to her and probably gave her my jacket to cover up lingered in me, making me shift in my chair."You shouldn't be thinking this way, Luke," I muttered, reaching to pinch the space between my brows. "Right here you're her boss." The sound of the door opening got my attention and I looked towards it to see Mila as she walked in."Have you given her
