Novel & Cerita Once We Were Brothers

Instead he spat at me. I glanced at my brother who was grinning from ear to ear and it was just like old times again when we hunted men down for our father. I faced the men and smiled. “This is going to be fun.” _____________________________________ I got back in the wee hours of the morning and let my men take care of the shitheads. By the time my brother and I were done playing with them, they had fallen unconscious much to our disappointment.

“Rule number one,” I start after a long moment of pure stare. “It is high time we embrace ourselves as who we really are—siblings! From this moment on, you are my brother, and I will address you as such!” He laughs my statement off, "But you have never seen me as your brother from the beginning.” “Well, things have changed now. We should try to relate like the half-siblings that we are to clear this confusion,” I state. “Do you know how ridiculous you sound?”

Alex looked at me for a moment… then took it. As I pulled him to his feet, I felt it—the shift in the air. The end of an old reign. The beginning of something new. We weren’t just survivors. We were brothers now—not by blood, but by choice. And no one would ever threaten our family again.

Things would never be the same between us. He was my brother but the way he felt and the way he made me feel was not the same. I couldn't explain it but my heart fluttered in my chest like a butterfly in a jar. All it wanted was to escape and right now the only escape was in the lips kissing mine, I grabbed his face with both hands and deepened the kiss as I kissed back.

The Ford brothers are a curse! I exhale sharply and rub my temple. “I’m tired. I don’t feel like eating.” His smile fades. He walks toward me. “Are you okay?” I shove him back. “Leave me alone.” He stares at me, stunned. “What’s wrong, Sara? Talk to me.” Something snaps. “I’m tired!” I shout. “Tired of you! Your stupid brother! Jason! Khlan! All of it! I just want to go home and have some peace!”

Elena thanked the guy who came to accompany her and helped her with her accommodation for when she decides to stay in school but she did say she would be coming from home since its not that far for her but he also had about three guys following him as he helped her " it's nothing really, you are family and I already promised your Dad that I would watch over you so it's no big deal" " if you ever have any problems on campus just look for me and my gang we would gladly help you trash anyone who mess with you".. Brandon said as he introduce his small gang to Elena In which she shook there hands and exchange a few words with them, she parted ways with him and made her way for her first lecture,

There was thick silence. A few gasps, some surprised smiles, and murmurs rippled through the room. But me? I felt like the floor should open up beneath me. My ears rang with white noise, drowning out whatever small talk followed. I stared at Damien, then at Luca. Damien’s brother. I'm pregnant for my husband’s brother. I didn’t hear anything else after that. My mind screamed a single sentence over and over again: What have I done?

“Your husband isn’t even buried yet, and you’re already bringing your lover here?” The man’s face stiffened. Then he quickly forced out a polished smile and walked toward me. “Bro, you must be Adrian Hayes. I’ve heard Maya mention you many times.” He looked straight at me with the air of a winner. As if he were saying, So what if your brother was the young heir of the Hayes family? He still lost to me in the end. I sneered. Then I raised my hand and slammed my fist into his face. “I only have one brother, and that’s Nathan. What the hell are you?”

He was there when the Club's kids made fun of me for getting stung by bees so bad I could barely open my eyes for a week. And somehow, years later he was still...there. The ceremony ended in a blur of shouting and applause. The prospects bled into the fire pit, their palms cut open and their blood sizzling against the flames, sealing their oath. Vince raised his hand. "Welcome to the Brotherhood!" The new brothers were swallowed by backslaps and cheers. The serious business was over and the chaos could now resume. "Didn’t think I’d see you here, Trouble." Trouble. Only one person called me that.
