Kiara

Once we get back to his penthouse, he makes a beeline for the bathroom. "Fuck, I've been needing to piss for the past twenty minutes." I laugh and sit down on the couch to wait for him. Suddenly my phone chimes, and I scream as I open the email. Trey comes rushing out of the bathroom, pulling up his boxers. His eyes are wide in panic. "What's going on?"

I can't get the words out, so I just hand him my phone. As he's looking at it, I finally snap out of my shock. "Holy shit, they want to offer me a book deal!" I exclaim.

Trey's face lights up with a genuine, proud smile. He pulls me into a tight embrace, his eyes reflecting the joy he feels for my success. "I'm so proud of you, Cupcake. I told you that you had nothing to worry about, your book is amazing!" he says matching my enthusiasm, and I savor the warmth of his support.

I've been waiting to hear back for weeks, and this is the good news I've been hoping for. I'll set up a virtual meeting with them and see what they'

    Trey My sister stands in the doorway wearing a hoodie and jeans and I'm standing here in the sweatpants I managed to slip on last minute. "Hey big bro, long time no see," she says casually. I stare at her for a long moment. "Plans tonight?" she teases, gesturing to my bare chest. I scowl. "Candice, where the hell have you been?" My tone remains steady, but turmoil churns within me. One, she's here unannounced after disappearing for months, and two, her best friend is naked in my bed. "Relax, why do you act like you've seen a ghost?" she groans, pushing past me and strolling into the living room. She slumps down on the couch. I hurry to shut my bedroom door, mindful of Kiara still naked, wrapped in my sheets, her hair tousled from our recent lovemaking. At least I can buy her some time to get dressed before my sister finds out about us, and all hell breaks loose. Candy glances at the door before narrowing her eyes at me. "Got one of your fuck buddies in there?" My jaw tigh

    Trey"You've had two months to not be in the mood to talk to anyone, you've had all of us worried sick, especially her. You need to talk to your friend," I say firmly. She scrunches up her face, defiance evident in her expression. "Why the hell are you so worried about whether I talk to her or not? Just like with your fling in there, it's none of your business," she retorts, dismissing my concern with a wave of her hand. My frustration boils over. "I just think it's fucked up, Candice!" I say, my voice rising, louder than necessary. "Get off my fucking back and be supportive for once, okay?" She rises from the couch, glaring at me. She heads for the door, pausing to cast one last look back at me. Tears well in her green eyes, a mix of frustration and hurt. "Coming here was a mistake. I thought you were trying to be a better brother. Seems like I was wrong." Her words cut deep, like a knife to the heart. It's not that I don't want to be there for her, but her behavior isn't o

    Kiara My eyes sweep Trey's bedroom, looking for a way out of this. Yes, it hurts that she didn't want to tell me she was here, but popping out of Trey's bedroom knowing that he was just fucking me is going to cause more damage. I do want to tell her, just not like this. Although this place is huge, there's nowhere to hide, and the only exits are in the hallway. There's a huge chance I'll run into them on the way out. Plus, Trey brought me here so I'll have to wait for an Uber. My heart races, as if threatening to burst from my chest at any moment. I shift my gaze toward the backdoor leading to the balcony, dismissing the absurd idea that had crossed my mind. The height difference between here and the ground is at least ten stories—there's absolutely no way I will try to escape this way! "Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" I exclaim, running my fingers through my hair as I pace back and forth in the living room. This can't be happening! Act calm, Kiara. Okay, you can do this. De

    Kiara Hurt flashes in Trey's eyes, but he quickly conceals it. She's wrong about him, wrong about us, and I'll defend him the same way he defended me earlier when she was making excuses for why she didn't want to tell me she was here. I shoot out of the chair, walking right past Trey to get right in front of her, my own anger coursing through me. "Don't talk about him like that, Trey is a good man!" I fire back at her. "You abandoned me when I needed you the most, and no, it didn't give me a right to be anything other than his friend, but he's been here for me and he let me stay with him when I didn't have anyone else. I tried to fight it. I really did! But I fell for him...hard...way harder than I imagined I could ever fall for anyone after what Jordan did to me." My gaze locks onto hers, a silent plea for understanding, yet all that meets my eyes is her unbridled rage. Tears well up, my throat tight and burning, but I press on with my confession, "We both wanted to tell yo

    Kiara A dull ache grips my chest, the inevitable pain I foresaw now a tangible reality. There was no way she going to be okay with this, and she'll probably never forgive me. Four years of our friendship has just been washed down the drain and it hurts like a motherfucker. Trey's frustration boils over. "You're really acting like a fucking child right now!” he shouts at his sister, a mixture of anger and disappointment in his tone. I swiftly intervene, placing a hand on his arm to stop him. "It's okay, Trey," I murmur, my voice barely above a whisper. "I just want to go home." He studies my face for a long moment before sighing in defeat. "Okay. I'll drive you home, Cupcake." Candy avoids eye contact as we leave, and the ride to my apartment is tense and silent, each of us lost in our own thoughts. Once we arrive, he walks me inside, the weight of the evening heavy on our shoulders, and shuts the door behind us. "Aren't you going to go back?" I ask weakly, mentally drain

    Trey It's been a week since Candice found out about us, and everything is tense and awkward. Kiara is too upset to come over, so I've been spending most of my free time at her place. I don't mind it; like I told her, anywhere she is, I'm home. But I know she's only avoiding my sister. Candy must feel like she's the queen of the fucking world right now, causing a disruption in our routine. I am determined to get them talking again, though. My sister needs to stop acting like Kiara cheated on her and pull out whatever bug crawled up her ass. Multiple times this week, I considered dragging her back to my mom's house, but I'm trying to be understanding of whatever she's going through right now. I've asked her repeatedly if she wants to talk about it, but she pushes me away every time. I've given up on trying to get her to open up. Today, as promised, I take Jeremiah to the DMV for his driving test. We have spent weeks practicing, and I'm positive that he's more than ready. Upo

    TreyAngry tears burn in my eyes, the vivid memories of pain and helplessness resurfacing. He didn't even know I wasn't his son at the time, yet he was still relentless. If J wasn't a baby at the time, he would've done the same with him. Now he's trying to play father of the year like everything he did can be overridden. The emotional scars run deep, and no amount of apologies or attempts at redemption can ever erase the past. His face hardens, and he takes a deep breath before speaking. "I know I can't erase the past. I was a real piece of shit, but I want another chance. I want us to be in the same room without all this awkward tension, and Jeremiah told me today that he wants us to try harder to see eye to eye." Well, that's fucking news to me. Why didn't he mention that in the car? "Let's make a deal," he continues calmly, "I'll never ask you for money again in life if you agree to spend one day a month with me and Jeremiah. We can do anything y'all boys want to do.

    TreyAfter taking Jeremiah to lunch and dropping him back off, I return to my place to find my sister sprawled out on the couch, an empty wine bottle on the coffee table beside her. I grimace at her sleeping form. I didn't know she drank. When I met Kiara, I recall her mentioning that her "friend" avoided alcohol out of fear becoming like her parents. Well, whatever happened in New York must've changed her mind. I throw away the bottle and gently shake her awake. "Candice, wake up. We need to talk." She groans, rolling over to face me. "What time is it?" "Two in the afternoon. Shouldn't you be at work?" Her face scrunches up like a used tissue. "Shouldn't you be off fucking my best friend? Oh wait, you already did that." Her slurred attempt to deflect doesn't faze me. "Did you lose your job when you went chasing after your girlfriend? There's no way they let you take leave for that long." I don't even think she's left the house since she's been here and that's extremely concer

  • Accidentally In Love with My Best Friend’s Brother    Epilogue

    Kiara I take her tiny hand in mine and lead her inside the house. When she sees Trey, she runs to him. "Grandpa, I missed you!" "VioletPie!" Trey responds with equal enthusiasm, scooping her up and swinging her up into his arms. I smile at the adorable interaction, my heart warming at the bond they share. I thought Trey couldn't get sexier as a chef, but watching him be a father and grandfather is everything. He is so kind and patient with kids, you'd never think he used to be a menace in high school. As I glance at the clock, I realize that TJ, his husband, and two daughters should arrive soon. Winston and his wife recently welcomed a baby, so we're giving them space to adjust to their new family dynamic. Candice and Cassie will probably be late, but they always show up eventually. As for Jeremiah, who now lives in Texas with his wife, we won't be seeing him today, but he'll most likely come down for Christmas. William peacefully passed away in his sleep five years ag

    Kiara "Cupcake, they'll be here soon!" Trey's voice calls from downstairs where the delicious smell of food permeates the house. "Shit, I'm coming!" I shout back, quickly submitting my manuscript to my editor—the sixtieth and final book of my writing career. I decided that it's time I retire and enjoy some well-deserved adventures with my husband. Next week we're going to Hawaii for our thirtieth-year anniversary, and the idea of peace and relaxation fills me with excitement. As I walk through the hallway towards the stairs, I can't help but glance at the wall adorned with a collage of photos of our family. Trey and I have faced many obstacles together, but despite it all, we've achieved so much. What did Maggie used to call us? Oh yeah...a power couple. Yeah, I think we've lived up to that nickname. Each photo on the wall serves as a testament to our resilience and everlasting love that has carried us through every twist and turn of our journey together. My eyes

    TreyThe remainder of the night unfolds beautifully. Following dinner, Kiara and I take to the dance floor for our first dance, swaying to "You Are The Reason" by Leona Lewis and Calum Scott. After we return to our seats, everyone starts running to the dance floor. Meanwhile, Magnolia peacefully sleeps in Kiara's arms as we watch them dance. I can't help but smile as a sense of contentment washes over me. The room is filled with laughter and smiles and infectious energy of people just reveling in the moment — exactly what I had hoped for. "Can I hold her?" Williams asks eagerly, reaching out for his granddaughter with a twinkle of adoration in his eyes. Kiara beams. "Of course. We're about to go dance anyway, right Trey?" I nod. She made sure there were multiple songs in our playlist that we could line dance to. After carefully passing Magnolia into his arms, ensuring not to disturb her sleep, Kiara seizes my hand. "Let's go, Candice!" she exclaims, her excitement

    Trey "I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride," the minister declares, his voice ringing through the chapel. We had planned to get married before our daughter was born, but at twenty eight-weeks pregnant, she tried to come early, and Kiara was put on bed rest for the remainder of the pregnancy. It was a rough ass time for her, but of course, my amazing wife managed to get through it and successfully deliver our healthy nine-pound baby. For someone who didn't let her Mama eat much without throwing up, she sure weighed a lot. Hand in hand, surrounded by our family and guests, we stroll down the aisle, cheers mingling with the soft patter of rice raining down on us. With 'Lux Temptations' on the same block as the chapel, we decided that everyone would walk there together. Of course, It only made sense for us to have the reception at our restaurant, the best in Virginia. My staff volunteered their time and effort today to cater my wedding as l

    Kiara I feign a pout at the command. "But I want to make the demands tonight." He smacks my ass as I move into position, causing me to giggle, "Okay, okay. I'm sorry, Chef." Trey's fingers softly graze over my skin, making me shiver in anticipation as he trails all the way from the nape of my neck to my pussy. Then, I feel him spit on my asshole, and I moan as I feel it drip down. He hums as if he's contemplating something. "Are you sure you can handle me fucking you hard tonight, Cupcake?" Always. "Yes, Sir," I whimper needily. He smacks my ass again. "What? I didn't hear you." "Yes, Sir!" I say louder. Hoping it makes him lose control, I wiggle my ass for him. Obviously it works because he grips my hips and impales me with his cock. He grabs my ponytail tightly, using it as a reign as he pounds into me. "H-Holy...holy...s-shitttt," I stammer, my fingers clawing at the sheets as he demolishes my pussy. There's something about pregnancy that makes sex so much more amazi

    Kiara I needed this. His touch brings back the peace that was disrupted when we went to my parents house. I expected a bad reaction, but nowhere as explosive as my mom was. There's a chance she may not want to be in our lives after today, but honestly, I think I'm okay with that. I'm tired of trying to live up to her expectations just because the life she chose to live wasn't fulfilling to her. I won't make the same mistake. I know for certain that even if she doesn't show up for me and my daughter, I have people that will. Once we return downstairs, the aroma of pizza fills the air. William, Jeremiah, and Candice are sitting at the table, engaged in conversation and laughter. Candice waves us over with a smile. "Hey guys, we were just talking about a weekly game night or something, at least until you have the baby," she suggests enthusiastically. I smile. "I love that idea. What do you think?" I ask Trey. He smirks in response. "Hell yeah, but we're not playing S

    Kiara I'm rendered speechless as we step into the house, marveling at all of the changes they've made. Despite the remodeling, Maggie's home still exudes the same cozy warmth it always has. When Trey mentioned he had a surprise for me, one that would be revealed once it was completed, I suspected that it was a house or something. Never did I anticipate that it would be Maggie's. Yet, I'm so damn happy and grateful that it is. It somehow makes me feel even closer to her knowing we'll live in the same space that she raised her children in. Soon, we'll be raising our own children here. "You guys did this yourselves?" I ask, pausing in the dining room, my eyes resting on Maggie's table, the very one I've eaten countless meals or sat talking with Maggie. "William, J, and I did all the hard work," Trey beams, "and, of course, Candy did all of the interior decorating." Candy slaps her brother's arm. "Just so you know, that was hard too, asshole," she laughs, shooting him a pl

    Trey "I love my girls so much," I murmur, feeling a lump form in my throat from the overwhelming rush of love and pride bursting from my chest. Kiara sniffles, her voice thick with emotion. "We love you too." Suddenly, my phone vibrates, breaking the tender moment. Glancing at the screen, the text says, "it's done." I kiss her passionately, savoring her lips before I pull a blindfold out of my pocket and reach over to cover her eyes, gently tying it behind her head. "What's this for?" she asks, grinning. "Time for the surprise you've been waiting so impatiently for," I say, my voice brimming with excitement as I pull out of her parent's driveway. My heart races, imagining how she's going to react when I reveal the long-awaited surprise. I really hope she loves it. It's not long before we pull up at a familiar address, although the house has been completely transformed in the past four months. "We're here," I announce, swallowing hard as I step out of the car.

    TreyAll eyes shift to Kiara, a thick tension growing in the room as they wait for her to speak. Her mouth opens and closes, but she seems unable to form the words. Glancing up at me, her face flushed with distressed, she screams for help with her eyes. I squeeze her hand to let her know that everything's alright. Clearing my throat, and stand up. Who knows why; maybe it's because I'm accustomed to making announcements this way at my restaurant. "We're having a little girl together," I say proudly, unable to contain my grin. Although I can hardly believe it myself, I've heard her little heartbeat and watched her suck her thumb at the last ultrasound. To say I'm over the moon is a fucking understatement. I feel the peace in the room pop like a bubble. Her father stares at us in stunned silence. The color drains from her ex's face and he looks as if he may be stick to his stomach that it's with me and not him. Meanwhile, her sister bursts out laughing, the sound echoing through t
