Bro Just Stepped Back Novels & Stories

She was preparing to deliver her final killing blow, urging the courts to make an example of me, the social degenerate. Then it happened. The giant screen behind her flickered. Without warning, the giant LCD screen behind her flickered and changed. Her tear-streaked face disappeared from the screen. A black player interface took its place. Moments later, a crystal-clear audio recording blared through the speakers, reaching every corner of the hall and every livestream. The voices in the recording belonged to two people.

“Let’s just say he’s very good with a gun… and he owes me a favor.” “Justin.” Brooke turned to him and stroked the side of his face. “I’m the only one who can do this, and you know it. I’ll be careful.” “I’ll be outside the house watching closely, too,” he said in a tight voice. “I won’t let anyone harm you ever again.” “Okay,” Brad said in an excited voice, “let’s get this thing rolling. I’ll call my friend and let him know. Of course, we’ll have to wait until both of you return to civilization.”

Brax growled, I could tell he was trying to hold himself back. “Get the fuck away from her, Blaze.” Brax stepped forward toward Blaze. I grabbed Brax’s arm trying to hold him back. I squared my shoulders and straightened myself to my full height. This guy doesn't scare me. “I know what you're doing, Blaze. You're not going to use me to get to Brax.” I said, Blaze stepped closer and Brax growled.

he questioned, slightly skeptical. Brianna's eyes darted back towards the conversation happening near the altar, and she continued, "Yes, absolutely. We should go back now." She gestured for Jack to follow, her pace quickening, and reluctantly, Jack agreed. He turned his back, ready to retreat to the previous spot. However, just as they took a few steps away, suddenly a voice called them, and the voice made both Brianna, and Jack stop in the track. "Brianna? Is that you?"

"Excuse me." I walked out just as I saw a flash of rage in my eyes. But I headed towards Makaira where she was still laughing and talking, but Jared suddenly threw his hand around my neck. "Hey man! Do you have a moment? I want to talk to you about the coming game." He said, steering me towards a tabl. "What's up?" I asked. I was trying to steal a glance at Makaira, but I couldn’t see her. I declined another beer from Jared, showing him the unfinished one in my hand.

"Help me step my knee back!" Ethan Brooks said the words and Luna's body plummeted. Step back? Ethan Brooks didn't have time to explain to her that the boar had arched his bones the wrong way and that every second was too important for him to force his body a bit. He turned the bulge upward and flattened his legs on the sand. "Stomp!" Seeing Luna in a daze, Ethan Brooks bellowed. Luna also realized the seriousness of the situation and stood up shivering. Ethan Brooks reached his hand up to the mismatch, covering it with his entire hand.

The only ones who stayed behind were Zazu, Grace, and me, all of us thoroughly enjoying the spectacle. “Brooks stop—.” Brooks marched out of the party. Jennifer tried to catch his arm but he jerked her hand away and walked away with a disoriented Jennifer following him from behind. She called to stop ,to slow down but he listened none. His face was covered in anger. Well tit for tat, whatever you do will come back to you. As the crowd thinned, Ryder slumped against the table, his head in his hands. "This can not be happening," he muttered. "This is a nightmare.”

I didn’t like it more that he wanted me to be loyal and obedient. “Like I said honey, I don’t care. What I do care about is you not harassing me every time I turn around.” The woman wobbled down four steps, her blonde bun bounced out of place. “As long as you remember your place there won’t be a problem.” Footsteps sounded behind us. I turned and Brad glared at us. He sucked in a breath and exhaled before shoving his fists into his pockets. “I see you’ve met Brea.” He finally said.

Just before he turned the knob, Jordon turned to whisper, "I don't know if he's inside, but please be on your best behavior if he is." I nodded. Why was Jordon acting like he cared what happened to me? Yeah, he'd been harmless so far, but it could all be one big charade. Jordon knocked on the door. "Enter." Braxton bellowed. Shit. Jordon opened the door and motioned for me to walk in first. Braxton stood at the whiteboard with a dry erase marker in his hand. He looked me over and smiled. "Rose. You look better."

And there was no way I was going to let anyone take her away from me. “Team B, prepare the show,” Brady said through the earpiece, the corner of his lips perked into a smirk as he turned towards the building just in time to watch the explosion of our entrance and cover light up the fortress in front of us. It was time, and I was ready for whatever Trevor wanted to throw at me. *** Nessa
