Novel & Cerita Never Marry Your Brother's Best Friend

If I cannot tell him that I was mated to him, I will find ways to be close to him. "Why?" "Why what? My brother can be friends with your sister and I can't?" I asked him. "The friendship between my sister and your brother is different. Even though I hate the fact that she is seeing him, it is still unique. So..." He stopped talking when he saw the way I was looking at him. I could not help the smile that broke on my lips at the way he was speaking. He cleared the throat before facing the huge screen. "The movie is about to start. Focus."

“My face just… reacts when I’m mad.” “Uh-huh,” she said, popping open her soda. “Mad, flustered, tomato-red… it’s all the same shade.” I narrowed my eyes at her. “Are you seriously trying to suggest that I—” I lowered my voice dramatically, “—like your brother?” Liv nearly choked on her drink laughing. “Relax. I didn’t say you like him. I said he gets under your skin. Which, honestly, is his favorite pastime. He does it to everyone.”

Tomorrow Halima and her husband to be, Sa'eed will take their wedding pics and then Halima will be taken to her husband's house. Halima never thought she'll ever get married to Sa'eed Abba Sulayman. Some years ago she took him as nothing but her best friend's elder brother - even though at some point she had a mild crush on him which went away after she was threatened by her classmate - but now here she is grinning from ear to ear as she looks at herself in the mirror. Mrs Sa'eed, she blushes st the thought of the name.

After 2000 ml of blood was extracted from me, I approached Cole Jefferson and begged him to marry me. "Your marriage alliance is with the Sinclair brothers. Why are you talking to me about it?" I lowered my eyes in despair when he rejected me coldly. "The marriage alliance states that I have to marry a Sinclair. You're their older brother. You're a Sinclair too." "So, you've noticed me? I'll marry you on one condition." My hopes got up, and I nodded.

Gave me a home, a life, a chance. And Jill and Gwen. They're annoying sometimes but I'd... I'd protect them. If something happened to them, I'd feel it. I know I would. Right? I swallow hard, the cigarette burning between my fingers. My teammates too. Even the ones I don't particularly like. I never think about seeing them bleed. Never imagine what sounds they'd make if I put a knife through— And Beck. Definitely Beck. My best friend. Quinn's brother. I'd never—

Not with little girls vanishing in my town. Because if this shit keeps spreading, it won't stop at strangers' daughters. It'll bleed straight to my family. My brothers have little girls. And my sister—she's got three of her own. I'd never forgive myself if something happened to them because I didn't end it fast enough. Failure isn't an option. Not this time. I've buried too many bodies and lived with too many ghosts to let another one join the pile. Whoever's behind this—I'll find them.

I couldn't say I'm in love with your brother and living twenty feet away from him is going to destroy me. "I'm just tired," I said. "Long day yesterday." Sloane's expression softened. She sat down next to me and wrapped an arm around my shoulders. "It's going to be okay. You're going to stay here, get back on your feet, and then you're going to find a cute guy and forget all about this." I laughed weakly. "A cute guy." "Someone who isn't my emotionally stunted brother," she added. "Seriously. Don't let him get in your head. He's an asshole to everyone."

She always acts like their marriage is so perfect, but turns out, they have the same troubles all married couples have. I go to swipe right, then hesitate. Maddy is a close friend, and if I'd come across Ewan on the app first, I wouldn't have swiped right. But considering that he already has, I feel as if the wheels of this game have already been set into motion. And the idea of bedding one of my close friend's husbands is beyond thrilling. Especially since Maddy is as much a friend as she is a rival; our friendship has always been marked by jealousy and competition. And yet...

“Just asking. You know, it’s okay to like her, Cade. It's okay to be vunerable." I furrow my brow and wipe my palm down my face. “Mom, please don’t start this again. She’s my best friend’s little sister. It’s guy code. I can’t be with her, even if I wanted to.” She drops her gaze to her knee, where she picks at an old scab. “Are you saying you’re interested?”

Now, it just made me want to gag. “Nobody knows you the way I do. Nobody else on this campus actually gives a damn about you the way I do. I’m the one who protected you. I’m the one who always made sure you were good. You think Brittany cares? She’s just using this to cause a scene because she hates me, not because she's trying to protect you. You’re my best friend, Kathy. We’re supposed to be a team. You can’t let people come between us over some stupid rumor or misunderstanding.”
