All Chapters of Reborn for my Step brother: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

ARIAThe heavy silence inside the lounge felt like a physical weight pressing down on my chest. I stared at Luka, my breath catching in my throat, completely unable to process what he had just confessed. My hands began to shake violently at my sides."Luka..." I whispered, my voice cracking with a sharp, painful disbelief. "How could you do this? We trusted you. You sat at the same tables with us. You watched us struggle, and all the while you were handing our secrets directly to Tristan?"Luka kept his head bowed down toward the floor, refusing to meet our eyes. He swallowed hard, his throat bobbing up and down. "I am sorry, Aria," he muttered, his voice trembling. "My family... my father's debts... Tristan promised he would clear them if I just gave him the schedule files and the archive access. I didn't want to hurt anyone.""You didn't want to hurt anyone?" Trenton stepped forward, his voice rising in a dangerous, furious growl. He grabbed the edge of the wooden table so hard the

CASSIEThe cold night air bit right through my thin jacket, but I didn't care. I crouched low behind a stack of rusted metal barrels outside the old north warehouse, pulling the hood of my coat over my head to keep myself hidden. My heart was pounding so hard against my ribs I was terrified Tristan or Maya would hear it echoing across the empty gravel lot.This was the second time this week I had followed Maya out here. After hearing them talk about framing Trenton for high treason, I knew I couldn't just pretend nothing was happening. I needed to know everything. I needed insurance.Inside the warehouse, the single overhead light bulb flickered, casting long, spooky shadows across the concrete floor. Tristan was pacing back and forth, his boots hitting the ground with sharp, angry thuds, while Maya stood near the wooden crate with her arms crossed tight over her chest."You are being sloppy, Maya," Tristan snapped, his voice echoing loudly off the metal walls. He stopped pacing and p

CASSIEShe had been quietly fighting him for weeks. She had survived his traps, his exposure of her Amber Wolf bloodline, and his cruel games without breaking. She had Trenton standing beside her, ready to burn the whole world down to keep her safe.If I gave this information to Aria anonymously, she and Trenton would have the exact weapon they needed to destroy Tristan once and for all. They would take the fall for the investigation, they would confront him publicly, and I would get my sweet, quiet revenge from the safety of the shadows without anyone ever knowing I was the one who pulled the trigger."It's brilliant," I whispered, a slow, wicked smile creeping across my face in the dark.It was risky, yes. But it was the only way to win.The next morning, the sun came up pale and cold through the frosty window panes. The campus outside was buzzing with nervous energy. Everyone was whispering about the formal treason charges filed against Trenton, and rumors were flying wild about wh

ARIA The weak morning light crept through the tiny window of our study room, casting long shadows across the wooden table where we had spread out the yellowed archive pages. I stared down at the documents, my fingers tracing the jagged signature at the bottom of the page while my heart beat a slow, heavy rhythm against my ribs."It's real, Trenton," I whispered, my voice sounding small in the quiet room. "This isn't just a rumor or a fake copy. These are the physical backup logs from the south border fire. Tristan signed his name right here."Trenton leaned over the table, his amber eyes scanning the lines of text as his jaw tightened until the muscles stood out like stone. He let out a long, shaky breath, running a hand through his dark hair."I can't believe it," Trenton muttered, shaking his head slowly in pure disbelief. "My own brother... he burned down our history, and then he let the elders blame an electrical fault just so he could hide the fact that the old succession record

CASSIESlowly, terrifyingly, footsteps approached the marble pillar. I started to turn around, my phone clutched tightly in my sweating palm, but I was too late.A shadow fell over me. I lifted my chin, and my heart stopped dead in my chest.Maya was standing directly behind the pillar, looking down at me with wide, furious eyes. Her face was pale, and a cold, ugly smile slowly spread across her lips."Well, well, well," Maya whispered, her voice dripping with venom. "Look who's been playing private investigator.”The cold shadow of the marble pillar seemed to press down on me like a heavy stone. My heart hammered against my ribs, the beat so loud and frantic that I was certain Maya could hear it echoing through the quiet courtyard.Maya stood just a few inches away, her arms crossed tightly over her chest. Her eyes, usually so bright and full of petty mischief, were now dark, narrow, and sharp like broken glass. She didn't look like the panicked girl who had been crying over missing
