BROTHER'S HOT BEST FRIEND IS MY MATE CHAPTER 21 OFFICE SEX
(Alex’s POV)I picked up the phone on my desk and called Scarlett's number in a quiet but firm voice. “I want you to come to my office. Right now.”On the other end, there was a heavy silence. Since she ignored me all morning, I knew she was mad. Not a single time had she looked at me, and I wasn't going to let that defiant silence go. She sighed, which was a soft sign that she didn't want to do it, but after a moment, she did it. She knew what was going to happen, just like I did.When Scarlett walked into the room, she looked determined, but there was a hint of doubt in her eyes. It only took me a few steps to close the gap between us. I pushed her back against the wall and clicked the door shut. As I locked her up and let the weight of our silence speak for itself, she gasped and her breath caught."Why are you ignoring me?" I spoke in a low, demanding tone as I looked her in the eyes.Scarlett looked away quickly and said, "I'm not... ignoring you." Her voice was shaky."Really?"
BROTHER'S HOT BEST FRIEND IS MY MATE CHAPTER 22 WARNING
SCARLETT’S POVMy thoughts were mixed up in the afterglow as I lay next to Alex. My heart was still beating fast from how intense the touch between us was. Even though it was warm, an unpleasant thought kept coming back to me. Why did he insist on keeping us a secret? But was it enough? I could tell he cared by the way he looked at me and touched me. Was I enough to stand beside him openly, for everyone to know?The silence lasted for a while, and I could feel a little stress building up inside me. I bit my lip and looked at him. "Alex..." I started out with a soft voice to see what would happen. "Why do we have to hide the fact that we're mates?Why can’t everyone know we’re together?”When he looked at me, his eyes were pleased and warm, which made my face heat up. He laughed and brushed a hair off my face. "You look cute when you're mad," he said.His careless answer made me a little angry, but I held my tongue and watched his face. He leaned in close and gave my face a soft kiss. T
BROTHER'S HOT BEST FRIEND IS MY MATE CHAPTER 23 MAKING HIM ANGRY
SCARLETT’S POVWhen I walked into Alex's office the next morning, I could still feel my anger from the night before. Instantly, when he looked up and smiled, my heart stopped beating, even though I was trying to hold on to my anger.His voice was warm and smooth as he said, "Good morning.""Good morning."I forced a tight smile on my face and almost crossed my arms. “Sienna said some... interesting things to me yesterday, I thought you should know.”He raised an eyebrow, and his eyes showed that he was laughing. "Oh?What did she said to you?""Nothing special, just the usual." I said, I tried to keep my tone relaxed, but I could feel a small edge in my voice. "In case you didn't know, she doesn't like it when I'm with you."Alex gave me a soft laugh and reached out to grab my hand, pulling me closer. "Scarlett, you should know that Sienna has worked here before you did. And plus you both don’t like each other much.” He gently squeezed my hand. "Don't let her bother you."I let out a s
BROTHER'S HOT BEST FRIEND IS MY MATE CHAPTER 24.PART 1
SCARLETT’S POVThe room was very quiet. It was the kind of heavy, almost physical quiet that made it hard to breathe. I could feel Alex's anger pushing down on me; his tense vibe was all around me. His normally cool and collected face had turned into something darker and more primal, and everything in me begged me to be careful."What did you do?" Alex asked me. He ordered with a low, steady voice that had a dangerous edge to it. His hold on my wrist got tighter, and I felt a sharp pain go up my arm. I bit my lip because I didn't want him to get pleasure from seeing me cry.I kept my face blank because I was determined to act like I didn't know what he was talking about. I tried to keep my voice calm when I said, "I don't know what you mean," but the small quiver showed that I wasn't really there.Alex didn't move his focused, angry look. His grip got tighter, and he looked at her with a scary look in his eyes. His uncontrolled alpha energy grew thick and heavy around him, smothering
BROTHER'S HOT BEST FRIEND IS MY MATE CHAPTER 24 PART 2
SCARLETT’S POV"So you're not going to listen to me," he said in a whisper, running his hand down my arm and leaving a warm mark.Being in a hurry, I looked around the room quickly to find something to hold on to while my mind tried to come up with an excuse."I-I won’t," I stutter, my voice shaking. The pens moved when Alex slammed his hand on the desk. "You're always being feisty, aren't you?"He pushed me toward the meeting table before I could say anything. He had a strong grip on me that wouldn't let go, and I felt a rush of fear and excitement. "You think you can mess with me and get away with it?"He hissed. His face was so close to mine that I could feel the heat coming from him.I gasped when his teeth dug into the soft skin of my neck. He leaned down on me out of the blue. I got a shock from the sharp sting, which sparked something inside me I didn't know what it was—a strange mix of fear and desire. I had never seen this side of him before, but there was something exciting
BROTHER'S HOT BEST FRIEND IS MY MATE CHAPTER 25 HIS AFFAIR
ALEX’S POVAs I drove to Scarlett's house, I tightened my hands because every ring of my ignored calls was making fun of me. She was very angry, almost furious. "How could you do this to me?" were her words from earlier, which were full of pain and blame. I think she was right when she said I was cruel. If I had taken her in anger and made her lose her virginity as a punishment, I would feel guilty. But I couldn't stand for her disobedience any longer. Scarlett wasn't supposed to be able to challenge me, but here I was, looking for her like a man who was crazy.It wasn't just anger, though. Something about Scarlett made me lose all the self-control I had worked on over the years. I tried to tell myself that I was just being bossy and that she needed to learn her place. But I knew in my heart that I had crossed a line. I could no longer lie to myself—Scarlett was the one who made me feel something I didn't want to feel. As part of my plan to get back at him, she was meant to be a pawn.
BROTHER'S HOT BEST FRIEND IS MY MATE CHAPTER 26 ENEMY
(Scarlett's POV)It was very quiet in the office when I got there. Even though I was really hungry, I had to skip breakfast to stay away from Alex. Because of what he did, I wasn't ready to face him. He took something from me that was mine to give away for free, and he said it was as punishment. It was even worse that he didn't feel bad about what he did and instead of saying sorry, just came home to return the file. “Scarlett, dont be stupid and fall for his games or charm,” I scolded myself. Thats what I deserve it.As I poured the hot coffee into my mug, I held on tight to the coffee pot and thought about what had happened. Why did I let it happen? I hated how easily I gave in to his touch and how my body lied to me about how strong I was.I told myself off as I shook my head. I said under my breath, "No more, Scarlett." He was wrong to think he could control me. He did not want our mate bond to be known? Okay. For now, I'd play along with it. But I wasn't going to do nothing and

Revenge came first."Thomas," I said, and my voice cut through the air like a cold knife. "I think you should leave."As he turned, his grin trailed off for a moment, but he quickly covered it up with a shrug."Alex," he said, acting very politely even though he wasn't. "Just getting to know your gorgeous assistant.""She's not just an assistant," I said in a harsher tone than I meant to. Scarlett looked at me with wide eyes, but I couldn't tell what she was thinking.Thomas's grin got

BROTHER'S HOT BEST FRIEND IS MY MATE CHAPTER 20 A TRAP?
Scarlett’s POVAs I walked down the hall to my office, I was still trying to cool down from all the chaos in my mind. My heart was heavy, and I think my face showed too much of how I felt. I was still tense from my fight with Alex, and every step made me think of the kiss that was still burning on my lips.Sienna was there when I walked out of the office. My twin sister, the perfect, favorite person of everyone. The way she stood and smiled while waiting outside my office made me feel even more out of place.As soon as she saw me, her eyes got narrow. "Scarlett? Is something wrong?" she asked with her head tilted. "You look like you've been crying."I tensed up and naturally ran my fingers over my face. "I'm fine." I lied, "I was just tired.Alex gave me a mountain of work to do, and it’s wearing me out."Unconvinced, Sienna arched her perfectly shaped brow. "Are you sure it's only work?You don't usually look this... stressed out." Her voice was soft, but I didn't like how it had a hi
BROTHER'S HOT BEST FRIEND IS MY MATE CHAPTER 28 PROVE IT
(Scarlett's POV)The only sound in the hallway was the sound of my shoes hitting the tile floor. When I saw Thomas leave Alex's room, I stopped short. His face was red and stressed, like he had just come from a fight instead of a meeting. He barely looked at me and brushed past me without saying anything or even giving me the silly grin he always had.He didn’t ask for a phone number. Didn’t say anything silly or flirty.Something happened.I frowned and turned my head to see him leave. His shoulders were stiff, like they were carrying an unseen weight. What did Alex do to him?Suddenly, I could smell a familiar scent: a rich, woodsy smell with the clear musk of an alpha wolf. It made my neck stiffen. I knew who it was right away, without even having to look.Alex.I could feel his presence around me like a shadow. My heart was beating faster, which showed that I wasn't as calm as I wanted to be."What makes you look at him that way?" His deep voice was quiet, but it was sharp enough
