All Chapters of Craved By My Ex-Boyfriend's Older Psychopath Brother : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Eden’s Point of View“Your grades are terrible.” My father’s voice was laced with disappointment as he flipped through the file in his hands. A moment later, his green eyes snapped up to glare at me. “How is this even possible?”“Those aren’t my grades.” I reminded him, lifting a brow in confusion, my gaze flickering between him and my half-sister, Evangeline, who sat with her head bowed in shame.She was only a year younger than me, yet our relationship had been terrible. Truthfully, my relationship with my family was horrible. My father despised me, Evangeline couldn’t stand me, and her mother, Iris, wasn’t any different.“I know,” he muttered gruffly, his brows furrowing as he continued flipping through Evangeline’s folder. “But just because they aren’t yours doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take responsibility for them. How can your younger sister have such awful grades while yours are excellent?”“Maybe because I actually study and she doesn’t?” I said bluntly, spearing a sausage on my

Eden’s Point of View“Thorne!” I yelled as I finally grabbed his arm, he had been avoiding me for three days now, and I just can’t take it anymore. I needed to talk to him.My chest heaved, as I struggled to breath, I had been chasing through the hallways; his eyes darted down at me. A strange emotion flickered across his eyes that, an emotion that I didn’t understand, but it seemed similar to disgust.No, I’m probably mistaken, Thorne loves me—he’s just angry.“What is it?” He asked in a bored tone.“Are you going to keep ignoring me like this?” I demanded, feeling a little offended and abandoned. “It’s been three days already, and I can’t believe this is the reason we are not speaking to each other.”He paused for a while, slipping his hands into his pockets, as he stared at me like I was something insignificant. “I expect you to understand me.” My voice trembled as I added.“Understand you?” he snickered, “And why should I be the one who keeps understanding? Don’t I have thoughts a

Eden’s Point of View“Iris removed the cable from the computer last night.” I muttered, stirring my soup absentmindedly. “Even though I wanted to study, I couldn’t use it.”“Why?” Lola asked curiously. “Evangeline doesn’t even need the computer, didn’t you say your father got her a laptop?”I nodded, and she muttered something like ‘evil bitch’ underneath her breath.“I guess my step-mother is hell bent on making me fail.” I shrugged my shoulders. “My eyes hurt.”“You stayed up all night crying, didn’t you?” she guessed, and I wondered how she knew. “Your eyes are swollen and red, I mean anyone who looks closely at you would notice.”“Should I just run away?” I whispered, but Lola caught it and she leaned in closer to ask.“From what?”“From home, from school—everything.” I confessed.For me, life usually moved at a slow pace, but right now, it felt like I’d hit a wall. Everything seemed frozen—even my relationship—and at this rate, I feared Thorne might actually break up with me for

Eden’s Point of ViewMy breath faltered, and my heart beat quickened in my chest—realizing the danger of my current situation. My brain was struggling whether to panic or not, my breathing ragged but at the same time I didn’t want my fear to be so obvious.Predators like him feast on fear.Theron needs me to fear him; that is exactly the reason he is trying to make me feel trapped.I have to show him I am not afraid of him.With a single tug, he yanked me back into the bench. My back collided against his chest and he lets go of my arm only to drape it along my shoulders and he crossed his legs trapping me in.“Relax, little rabbit.” He whispered in my ears, his breath hot against my skin, and I held my breath, worried he might hear just how loud my heart was beating.“I am not going to hurt you—” He teased, my thoughts were drowned out by the notorious pounding of my heart. “—Unless you want me to.”I stiffened, why would anyone want to be hurt?“Get off of me.” I pushed against his c

Eden’s Point of ViewI felt so dizzy with everything, the confrontation, the cold, the fear and the worrying that now settled in me as I thought clearly about everything that Theron said to me while we were in the library.Could Thorne be cheating on me?Theron seemed to know certainly that he is… I mean what could he gain by lying to me, but I was also aware that both brothers hate each other.I don’t know why though.But Theron could be doing this as a means to get revenge.I know just how important sex is for most young men, being impatient and aggressive when they are denied is also common, but between two people who claim to love each other?Like Lola said, that isn’t normal.And as much as I would like to make excuses for Thorne, his actions today in the hallway makes me realize that there might be a little truth in what Theron was saying.He is probably only hanging around me because he wants to conquer me… to have me… to get in my pants.A man who loves me wasn’t going to hurt
