บททั้งหมดของ One Night With My Stepbrother : บทที่ 111 - บทที่ 120

Vera's POVMy eyes fluttered open, and the first thing I saw was Liam's black hair. I had slept off in his room.A small smile touched my lips as my gaze slowly trailed down. His chest was bare, and the shirt he'd been wearing the night before lay somewhere on the floor.I looked at him again. He looked so peaceful while he slept.My hand drifted toward his back, but before I could touch him, a better idea popped into my head. I carefully sat up from the bed and ran my fingers through my messy hair, trying to fix it a little before shifting to the other side of the bed, where I could see his face properly. Then I slowly lay back down.Careful not to wake him, I rested my head on the pillow and just stared at him. His long lashes rested against his cheeks. His lips were slightly parted, and a strand of black hair had fallen over part of his forehead.He looked different when he slept. Softer.My hand lifted slowly, and my fingers brushed against his lips. They felt soft under my finger

Vera's POVMy heart skipped a beat when I saw the look on Peter's face. He kept his eyes on mine, waiting for me to answer him, but for a moment I didn't know what to say.Could he have seen us together?No. The car windows were tinted, so there was no way he knew."Yeah, we came to school together. We live in the same house, remember?" I said, trying to keep my voice calm and my face steady."Does he know about the person you like?" Peter asked.My fingers tightened around the strap of my bag, and I had to force myself to breathe normally."Uhmm… maybe," I said quietly.His expression darkened, and he shook his head slowly."He knows, but I don't." He let out a short breath. "You two are closer than I thought."I gave an awkward laugh and rubbed the back of my neck.Peter looked at me for another second, then turned his eyes away. An uncomfortable silence settled between us before he cleared his throat."There will be a party today." He shifted his weight from one foot to the other.

Vera's POVHe looked at me, confusion written all over his face. "I can't, Vera. I need to know what's wrong with you. And why are you out here instead of in class?""Just leave me alone, Liam." My voice came out small now, tired. "If you ever liked me, even a little, let me go.""Vera... you're breaking my…" he started."You're hurting me, Liam." I cut him off, my eyes finally lifting to meet his. "Let me go and don't follow me."His eyes moved over my face, searching, soft with something that looked like sincerity."I'll let you go. For now." His fingers loosened around my wrist until they slipped away completely. "We'll talk about this at home."I said nothing back. I turned away from him and started for the gate, my legs moving fast, my chest tight. I didn't know if he stood there watching me go or if he'd already walked off. I didn't have the heart to look back and find out.My phone buzzed in my hand. I lifted it to read the message that had come in.[Your ride is here, ma'am.]

Vera's POV “Ohh.” I let out. “He didn't tell me about any party though.” She said with a furrowed brow, as she walked to the couch where her phone laid. “Maybe he forgot.” I pointed out. Her eyes stayed on me as she replied in a flat voice. “Yeah.” she moved back to scrolling on her phone. “You don't look happy, Anita.” She didn't answer, she put the phone on speaker and the phone rang as she had placed a call. In few seconds, the call was picked. “Hey, do you miss me?” The voice from the phone asked in a teasing tone. “Do you have a party today?” Anita asked, cutting to the chase. “Yes, I do.” I totally forgot to tell you about it.” "Oh, you forgot. You better get your brain thinking instead of your dick." Anita retorted into the phone. "Come on." He dragged the words out with a click of his teeth. "It's just a party." "That I will like to attend." His voice turned softer. "Anita, you're always invited. Bring your friend too." "Better, and get ready to make it up t

Vera's POV "Ugh! Guys, get a room." I complained the moment I spotted Anita and Ted in the corridor near the railing, their lips locked together like they'd forgotten the rest of the world existed. They broke apart just long enough to glance at me, then went right back to kissing as if I hadn't said a word. I rolled my eyes and turned to walk away. "Guess I'll be the one leaving, then." Footsteps came up behind me, and I slowed my pace, scanning the hallway for somewhere to disappear to. The only hiding spot nearby already had two people wrapped around each other in it, so that plan was dead before it started. Before I could think of anything else, a voice I knew too well stopped me cold. "Vera." My spine went stiff. I turned my head slowly, and my eyes met Liam's. He crossed the space between us in a few steps and stopped right in front of me, studying my face like he was trying to read something written on it. "Baby, how have you been?" he asked. I let my gaze land on him
