Never Marry Your Brother's Best Friend Mga Nobela at Kwento

And as she lay down, staring at the ceiling, she realized something else: this wasn’t over. It was just the beginning. Her best friend's brother was prohibited.

If anything, she was irritated because Sloane Reed didn't do shock. It was more a crack in the veneer when she realized that bringing her home wasn't part of the agreement and that I didn't care. My phone buzzed and buzzed again. I didn't answer the first call because I knew it was Uncle Roman calling to express his concern about the sudden marriage, probably, or his fury. But, the second one was Cole I knew because I was waiting patiently for it. I expected after seeing the news, he would want to talk about his ex-fiancee, who was now my wife.

Maya asked. “No, she doesn't,” I said quickly. “And Ethan?” “He doesn’t know either. Not yet.” Maya rubbed her forehead. “Wow...” "I didn't know. Maya, I swear I didn't know. And now that I do, and I can't... I can't do this. I can’t see Ethan anymore." "Why not? Is it not even better that he's your best friend's brother?" Maya asked, looking confused. I looked up at her like she'd lost her mind. I started shaking my head. "Maya, you don't understand; you don't get it."

My brothers rarely excluded me, but this time they had closed the door tight. Dante’s voice was low but firm. “I don’t like this. Lorenzo is a snake. Cruel to his own people. The rumors about how he treats women are bad. I won’t let our baby sister marry him.” Marco grunted in agreement. “Father sees power. We see risk. She’s too young for this kind of marriage. Forcing her will break her. And it might break the family too.” Enzo sounded angrier than usual. “She’s our sister. Not a chess piece. Lorenzo would destroy her spirit. I’ve seen how he operates. We can find another alliance. One that doesn’t involve selling her off to a monster.”

KAIDA’S POV I was speechless. Totally and utterly speechless. Maybe it was a dream and I needed to wake up as soon as I could, but when I pinched myself, it fucking hurt—-it was real after all. Maverick Jensen, the hockey god. My best friend’s brother left his apartment at 5am and jumped into my room through the window like a stalker just so he could confess his feelings. Scratch that—he never mentioned the word, ‘feeling’. Rather, it was more like an obsession.

“Now…I have you…I have what you had with him. I’m happy. But it…came with a great price.” I bit my lip, and pain stabbed through me again as I remembered Tom. “I’m just saying we both like what we have. We know the tie that binds us together. Tom was more a brother to me than a friend. And the worst pain I went through when I lost him…there is only one other person in the world who felt that exact same pain. Only one person went through what I went through. That’s you, Brianne. But this relationship…your future boyfriends might not always understand this…because they know I’m not your brother. We’re not related by blood at all. So…if you fall in love and get serious with a guy, let me know.”

“I was in seventh grade. Went to Tyler’s after practice. She was standing on the landing, looking down at me. Hair loose. Pink sweater. And I just ” “Isn’t that a felony under the bro code?” I cut in. “Pretty sure crushing on your friend’s sister is a capital offense.” He waves it off. “Actually, technically, the bro code says if you’ve known a guy more than twentyfour hours, his sister is offlimits forever unless you marry her.” A grin splits his face. Unhinged. Certain. “So it’s fine. I’m going to marry Beth.” “Uhhuh.” I nod slowly. “And Beth knows about this destiny you’ve cooked up?”

[But even if they aren’t related by blood, isn’t it weird if two people who’ve always called each other their brother and sister get married? [What happened to your best friend? Why is Seth marrying his sister all of a sudden?]

I just wanted to yell out loud in frustration and hit something so hard. Piece of advice. Never fall in love with your best friend. Or anyone to be honest!
