Liam has always been the black sheep of the Moreau family. His birth marked the beginning of their financial ruin, and he's spent his life in the shadow of his beautiful, beloved sister, Clara. When Clara secures an engagement to Julian Davenport, the wealthy and enigmatic CEO of Davenport Enterprises, Liam sees an opportunity for revenge. He'll seduce Julian, expose Clara, and finally claim the spotlight for himself. But Julian has a secret: an identical twin brother named Jasper. What starts as a game of seduction and revenge quickly spirals into a complicated entanglement with both brothers. Jasper's playful flirtations and Julian's commanding presence awaken desires Liam never knew he possessed. As the twins shower him with lavish gifts and manipulative games, Liam finds himself caught between his carefully constructed facade and the genuine feelings that begin to surface. Now, Liam must decide: is his relationship with the Davenport twins just a tool for revenge, or could it be a path to something more profound? And can he escape the bitterness of his past to embrace a future he never dared to imagine, even if it means marrying into a family that is twice as complicated as he ever anticipated?

Her voice was sweet as syrup, but the venom beneath it sizzled. “What a surprise to see you here, dear brother, I doubt you got on with your life.”Liam gave a lopsided smile, folding his arms casually. “Didn’t know crashing a dinner was frowned upon now. My bad.”Clara leaned in slightly, still smiling, a hand resting lightly on Liam’s shoulder as a photographer passed. She posed for a second before hissing, “You’re not invited. What the hell are you doing here?, mom and dad shouldn't even know you're here, you've been disowned remember.”“Well like I said before, I was disowned a long time ago but right now I'm here, getting a front row seat to your performance,” Liam murmured back. “Don’t worry. I won’t upstage you. I know how hard you worked for this role.”Julian stood frozen a few steps behind, his thro
“Liam is on his way, with a lunch box. We cooked it together,” the message from Jasper read.Julian stared at the screen, his heart skipping a beat.“Shit,” he muttered under his breath, lowering the phone immediately.Clara raised a perfectly shaped brow. “Is there a problem?, is anything wrong?.”Julian’s eyes flicked to hers. “No,” he lied smoothly. “Just a work thing.”He quickly typed a message to his secretary: Liam is coming. Do not let him up. Tell him I’m in a meeting. Handle it discreetly.Then, turning back to Clara, he forced a calm smile. “Sorry. You were saying?”Clara leaned back, legs still crossed. “I wasn’t saying anything. But I was thinking… maybe we should do a photoshoot together soon. Yo

You were saying?”Clara leaned back, legs still crossed. “I wasn’t saying anything. But I was thinking… maybe we should do a photoshoot together soon. You know, casual shots. Home vibes. People eat that up. Walking hand in hand in public.”Julian pinched the bridge of his nose. “Let’s focus on the dinner and the interview first.”“Fine,” she said, a little pout forming on her lips. “But Julian–can I just say something?”He didn’t
Chapter 48“That’s it,” Julian encouraged, his hands gripping Liam’s hips. “Just like that. You’re doing so well, baby…”Liam moaned, his arms coming up to wrap around Julian’s neck. Julian leaned down, capturing his mouth in a deep kiss as he continued to thrust.Liam cried out into the kiss as he came for a second time, his hole clenching around Julian’s cock. Julian groaned, his own orgasm hitting him hard. He filled the condom, his body shaking with the force of his release.“Fuck, Liam,” he panted, pulling out carefully. He removed the condom, tying it off and tossing it aside. “That was…”“Amazing,” Liam finished, his eyes shining with love. “I love you. Both of you. So much.”Jasper, who had been watching them , leaned down to kiss Liam softly. “We love you too, Liam. More than anything.”Julian nodded in agreement, his heart full. They had almost lost this, lost each other. But now, they had a second chance.And Julian was determined to make the most of it.The three of them l
Jasper felt a mix of relief and guilt wash over him as he watched Liam and Julian kiss. Relief that Julian hadn’t chosen Clara after all, but guilt for the pain they had just caused him. He wanted to make it up to him, to show him how much he cared.He gently touched Julian’s shoulder, pulling him into a three-way kiss. Julian responded immediately, his mouth moving against Jasper’s with desperation. Liam, caught between them, moaned softly into the kiss.Jasper broke away first, his breath coming in short gasps. “We need to talk about this,” he said, his voice husky with desire. “Really talk.”Julian nodded, pulling away from Liam. “You’re right. We should… we should sit down and discuss everything.”But before they could move, Liam grabbed both of their hands, his eyes dark with need. “Can we… can we just be together for now? Please?”Jasper and Julian exchanged a glance. Without saying a word, they knew what the other was thinking. This wasn’t a conversation they could avoid foreve
Julian hesitated before answering. “It was… fine. I mean, Clara and I talked about some things. About us.”“Oh?” Liam prompted, his stomach twisting with anxiety.Julian nodded, but couldn't bring himself to tell them, he had sex with Clara , he felt like he betrayed them.Liam looked at him expectantly, waiting for Julian to elaborate. When he didn’t, Liam felt a surge of frustration.“And?” he pressed, trying to keep his tone even. “What did you decide?”Julian sighed heavily. “Liam, I… I don’t know how to say this…”Jasper stood up, joining Liam. “Julian, what’s going on?” he asked softly.Julian looked between them, his expression pained. “Clara and I… We’re going to try and make this work. For real. I’m going to try and give us a real chance.”The room fell silent as Liam and Jasper absorbed Julian’s words. Liam felt like he had been punched in the gut, all the air leaving his lungs. Jasper, on the other hand, looked like he might throw up.“You’re… you’re choosing her?” Liam fin
“Yeah, Clara and I are at dinner, but I’ll be back soon. I love you.”Liam’s heart swelled at the message. Despite everything going on with Clara, Julian was still thinking of them. He quickly typed out a response.“We’re fine, just missing you. Be safe. Love you too.”He set his phone down and rolled over, wrapping his arms around Jasper. Jasper stirred in his sleep, pulling Liam closer.“Mmm, you okay?” Jasper mumbled, his eyes still closed.“Yeah, just got a text from Julian,” Liam replied quietly, not wanting to wake Jasper fully.Jasper’s eyes opened slightly. “Oh yeah? What did he say?”“Just checking in,” Liam said. “Said he’d be back soon.”Jasper nodded, nuzzling into Liam’s neck. “Good. I miss him.”“Me too,” Liam admitted, feeling a pang in his chest.Jasper pulled back to look at Liam. “Hey, it’s going to be okay. We’ll figure this out.”Liam forced a smile. “I know. I just wish things were different, you know?”Jasper kissed his forehead . “I do. But we have each other, a
She pulled away, smiling. “See? That wasn’t so bad.”“I guess not,” he said quietly, but the only thing he could think about was Liam and Jasper fucking themselves out without him.Then, without warning, Clara started to undress. She let her dress fall to the floor, revealing the silk lingerie beneath.Julian turned away quickly. “Clara, wait…”She stepped closer. “What? Don’t you like what you see?”“It’s not that,” he muttered. “I just… I’m not in the mood tonight.”She frowned. “You’re not in the mood?”“I’m sorry.”Clara grabbed her dress from the floor, covering herself. “You’ve got to be kidding me.”“I didn’t mean to hurt you–”“Then what do you mean, Julian?” she snapped. “You say you want to try, but you won’t even touch me?”Julian ran a hand through his hair. “Clara, this isn’t how I want it to be.”“You’re impossible,” she muttered, turning away.“I just need time,” he said softly. “And space.”“You’ve had nothing but time and space,” she snapped. “If you don’t want me, ju
“Clara, I understand your perspective,” Julian began carefully. “But I want to be honest with you. My heart isn’t in this. And I don’t think it’s fair to either of us to pretend otherwise.”Clara’s smile faltered, hurt flashing in her eyes. “Julian, please. Give me a chance to change your mind. I know I can make you happy if you just let me.”“Clara, I understand your perspective,” Julian began carefully. “But I want to be honest with you. My heart isn’t in this. And I don’t think it’s fair to either of us to pretend otherwise.”Clara’s smile faltered, hurt flashing in her eyes. “Julian, please. Give me a chance to change your mind. I know I can make you happy if you just let me.”Julian hesitated, then sighed. “Okay. Let’s have dinner. Maybe we can talk this through.”Her face lit up. “Really? Thank you. That’s all I wanted.”They sat in a private booth of a classy restaurant Julian owned. Clara had picked the place herself.“I hope you don’t mind I ordered already,” she said. “I kno
The chandelier, a monstrosity of crystal and gaudy gold, dripped light like honey, coating everything in a syrupy sheen of wealth. I took a sip of my lukewarm champagne, the bubbles doing little to soothe the acid churning in my stomach. "Gilded cage," I muttered under my breath, the phrase feeling particularly apt. This whole scene, this extravagant charade, was a cage built of borrowed money and desperate hopes, and my family were willingly locking themselves inside.I surveyed the room, a grotesque tableau of forced smiles and strained conversations. My parents, Mr. and Mrs. Moreau, were the ringleaders of this circus, their faces plastered with an almost manic joy. They flitted between guests, their bodies practically vibrating with the effort of appearing relaxed and affluent. My mother's dress, a shimmering emerald number, was undoubtedly purchased on credit, a fact that only I seemed to recognize. My father, usually slumped and defeated, stood ramrod straight, puffing out his c...
