*** RAVEN ***

It was an eight-hour flight. When I arrived at the mansion, the first thing I went to was our bedroom. I checked her closet and half were taken, leaving the glamorous gowns and cocktail dresses. There were expensive bags and high-heeled shoes. Like she only took the comfortable ones. Her jewelry? She didn’t take much of it. Like she hasn't taken all of the ones that I bought and designed for her.

I went to bed because I knew that’s where she was going to leave a letter. A red envelope was waiting with the rings over it. I glanced at the maid whom I assigned to assist Hyacinth… waiting outside on the open door. I slid the rings into my pocket as I opened the document. There’s a letter on the envelope. I open it and read it before going to another document.

Raven,

I don’t know why you marry me. But I don’t want to be drawn into you again. I had enough of the pain from the past. It hurts… so much. Also, do not blame your staff. I drugged them so I could escape. Don’t find me

    ****HYACINTH****It’s been ten months. After I resigned from the company, I became a full-time writer. I got used to living in a two-story cabin. I have been taking care of the mini vegetable garden. I also rarely go out unless I am out of food. I somehow received a lot of money from the first book that I published. I was happy living life alone, away from social media and people who gave me pain. I managed to communicate with my best friend through my number. After months of not contacting her, she scolded me. She was so worried and told me everything that happened after five months of disappearing. Raven, which she mentioned as my ‘husband’. He’s been around her many times, and he has had men follow her just to track her. But I bet if she ever had a stalker, they would be bored of her. She's a laid-back person just like me. She would rather sleep than go out with people she doesn't know much. They probably got tired. I managed to break contact with them for ten months. Surely, my

  • Forced to Marry My Stepbrother   13. A Hundred First

    ***Hyacinth***When I woke up to buy groceries, it was gloomy. The news was all about a typhoon coming, and it was a good thing that I bought groceries. Yet I didn’t have enough budget to cover everything. And Raven came out of nowhere. I started with the typhoon guard on each window as I peeked at Raven, who was still in his car. His window rolled down as the strong wind entered his car.After the renovation of the cabin, my grandmother had typhoon guards ready on each window and door. The cabin had concrete walls and wooden porches. It was the most beautiful place that I ever had. I felt bad for making Raven stay there for four hours and it was already dark. The rain poured together with strong wind. He finally moved his car closer and went to the terrace with his bag. He stayed by the bench. I rolled my eyes. I should have told him to just leave. I ignored him and started to cook with some soup. I shouldn’t care about him again but I couldn’t leave my ex-husband there. In the pou

  • Forced to Marry My Stepbrother   14. In a Humble Cabin

    ****** Raven ******I made sure that the locks were in good condition including the typhoon guard. I had so many thoughts on how to create a typhoon guard with just a remote control. I checked the logs on the chimney and I know that those logs aren't enough. So, I headed out, fishing my car keys and hers. I set the cars in the garage-like barn. Once I settled it, I took out more woods where she stocked most in the same area. Some woods were outside and already wet. I searched for a plastic bag… something that would cover it. There, I found a sack and put more logs into it as I headed back to the terrace. I opened the door when I noticed a light behind me. I turned to see a car pulled into the driveway. “Hyacinth?” A man came out in a waterproof coat and boots. He approached me and looked at him. We had the same height or rather, I am a few centimeters taller. He seemed to be puzzled seeing me. “Oh, hi good evening. Is Hyacinth there?” His accent isn't that bad. It’s almost like an Am

  • Forced to Marry My Stepbrother   15. Her Neighbor

    ****** RAVEN ******To ease Zian’s anxiety or worries, my best man… I contacted him as soon as I checked that there was still a reception in the area. I told him that I found my beloved wife. She’s already a citizen of the country since her mother registered her and brought her here when she was a baby. They had her baptized and somehow, paper works were done. I don’t know what else happened, but it seems that Hyacinth’s grandmother was quite popular around here. According to the records that I had gathered, Hyacinth has been here many times through her mother, which she didn’t remember. Now, once I am fully dressed, my wife is trying to kick me out again from her bedroom and she has gathered blankets and pillows for me. But I would never be separated from her. So, I made sure that we made love in her bed. A queen size bed, making her come many times in my mouth, with my fingers… and with my cock. She's too tired to push me out of the bed anyway. I headed downstairs to put more wood

    *****Hyacinth****Shortly, the electricity came back and the surroundings were clear and bright. I headed quickly upstairs to my study room and checked the cameras. It came into view and one of the pine trees fell in front of the driveway. I stopped upon seeing a man by the driveway in front of the thick pine tree that fell. A familiar raincoat. Eino. I peeked at the window and saw a flashlight flickering. “Eino,” I mumbled as I quickly headed downstairs. Suddenly the whole room got cold and Raven came out of the basement.” “Basement was flooded.” He said. “It seems that we need to rebuild this cabin again.” “Uhm,” I sighed. “What if I did not follow you here? What would you do?” He asked. I only shrugged at him. “Oh, baby.” He approached me. “It seems that we need to cuddle close tonight.” “I think Eino is outside,” I said and a knock on the door interrupted us. Raven went to the door and pushed it forward. The wind is strong pushing back the door close. He let Eino enter as my

    ***** Raven *****Being between her legs and hearing her moan was the best thing. If I only had a lot of time after our wedding, we wouldn’t be leaving our bed. But this is it now. A second chance. I’m going to win her back. She was still in her robe. It was open and the ribbon was tangled. Her legs were spread open and seeing it shake as she shuddered when she came made me a damn King. Her clitoris was the most sensitive part but I wonder if there’s more. I grabbed more towels and placed them under her. Hyacinth couldn’t say no to me. Seeing her a little helpless every time I did this made me so happy. She’s not in control of her body now. The passion, urges, and orgasms that she deserves were what made her like this. I pulled her hips closer and started thrusting hard and deep while she tried hard not to scream aloud every time she was near. I am not done by only taking her to bed… but everywhere in this room and even by the window seat. I will let her know what she missed for the

    **** Raven****It was breakfast and lunch. For a short Brunch. We gathered in the dining hall with Mrs. Aada Hekkinen, Eino’s grandmother. From what I heard from Hyacinth, his parents were out of the country attending their family business and so were his siblings. I am uncomfortable with someone else’s house, but it was safer for Hyacinth. But anyway, even though I am uncomfortable, I am comfortable enough to make love to her in the guest room that we are occupying. The woman spoke in fluent English toward Hyacinth. She seemed to like my Hyacinth. But what can I say? She’s likable. I glanced at her ring finger where I put the rings back. It was a little loose since she lost weight. But it wasn’t the only thing that I noticed in this lunch. Eino’s eyes were always on Hyacinth every time she spoke. Those kinds of eyes… I know what it meant. I looked at her the same way. Love… obsession, possession… passion. Maybe he can look at her that way… but she’s my wife. I won’t just let any man

  • Forced to Marry My Stepbrother   19. Her Own Dream Mansion

    **** Hyacinth ****I watched from a distance as many men set up a container house. At first, it was stacked and like a doll house that was easy to assemble. Shortly, it was complete with a kitchen, living room, and bedroom—it’s a whole house. Raven toured me around, and they helped out with moving a few of my furniture. There are two that were set up. One for me and Raven and one for the workers. It was set up within a day and I will surely make dinner for us in that pretty small kitchen they installed. Even at nine in the evening they still work even though Raven told them to stop. He’s paying for all of them, together with their overtime. In the morning, the chainsaw echoed and woke me up. I put on the jacket that I stored in Raven’s wardrobe as I peek at the window to see that the pine tree that fell was being chopped and would be used for the house. They are also removing a few and there are more trees as a replacement. I looked at Raven who was naked and helping around. David a

    –Hyacinth–I planned it to be in Switzerland. Patricia always wanted to go there. So we made it. Raven and I decided to let them go wherever they want. While he and I stayed in our hotel room to make love. I promised him. That we would go crazy in bed once he’s fully recovered. It’s still his birthday week. Besides, my husband is all that matters now. I may not be able to give him children but this one happiness… maybe it’ll fill up his wants. “I am loving your body, right now.” He said while admiring me on a fitted dress that I put on for our afternoon walk. We’ll be meeting them in the restaurant that they found a few blocks from our hotel. “Really? I think I am fatter than before.” I approached her as he caressed my curves. “Oh, these… mama mia!” He grinned. I laughed and pushed his hair forward. “Let’s go. I want to eat and also enjoy this place.” “Okay, okay.” He bounced his head. “I don’t want my wife to get hungry. Hungry wife, disaster life.” He said as playfully as I sma

    –Hyacinth–I quickly tucked the letter away, my fingers trembling slightly as I realized it could ruin the night for Raven. No, not tonight. Not on his birthday. I stepped outside, handed the bouquet to a passing housekeeper with a grateful smile, and whispered, "Thank you," before rushing back in.And the letter? I buried the storm of emotions twisting inside me. Because this isn’t just about me anymore. This time, I’m protecting him. I’m protecting Raven.The door burst open from the bathroom. “Love!” Raven called out, his voice bright and boyish.I turned with a soft smile. “Yes?”He peeked his head around the doorframe with that mischievous grin of his. “I was thinking… quick party, then make love?”I laughed, arching a brow. “You’re not fully recovered yet. So, we can’t—unless~”“Yeah, yeah,” he grumbled, waving a hand. “I know. No more food poisoning, I swear.”“Mmhmm,” I hummed, unconvinced.He walked over, draping himself across the bed. “So, who knocked earlier?”I avoided h

    –Hyacinth–I sighed, stomach churning. Ugh, probably too much soda. I rushed to the bathroom, hoping it would pass. That’s when it hit me—I hadn’t gotten my period.I froze, hand instinctively reaching for my chest. Tender. Really tender.“Oh, shit,” I muttered. “Am I pregnant… or is this just PMS?”No. Couldn’t be. I stopped taking the pill, yeah, but Raven had a low sperm count and we always used condoms… right?“This is just PMS,” I told myself, firm. “Just premenstrual weirdness. Totally normal. Nothing to see here.”I cleaned myself up and was just reaching for toilet paper when Raven knocked.“Come on, babe!” he called.I opened the door just enough to peek out.“I’m not feeling great,” I said, nudging him inside. “Your turn.”He rushed past me like a man on a mission. “Thanks! But hey, we still have places to be, remember?”“Yeah, yeah,” I said with a laugh.The door shut, and a groan came from inside.“You okay in there?” I asked, amused. “Want me to get you some medicine?”“Y

    Hyacinth I’ve always dreamed of touring Europe, and now, with our budget secured, we finally could. The private jet made the trip hassle-free, and as we stepped onto foreign soil, I intertwined my fingers with my husband’s. But he brushed my hand away, handing me my purse instead. I pouted, only for him to secure his own bag across his chest before resting a firm hand on my waist. My irritation melted into a grin when he winked at me. “So, this is the surprise birthday trip you planned for me?” he asked. “Yes,” I confirmed. “I would’ve preferred it if we were alone, you know.” His grin turned wicked as he wiggled his brows. “Locked in our room for days—lazy, indulgent, just us. I’d never get tired of that.” “But I would,” I shot back, squinting up at him. “It’s bad for me.” He laughed as I did, then pushed open the door to the first café we spotted. The place wasn’t crowded, but the rich aroma of coffee and pastries was intoxicating. My eyes locked onto the cinnamon Dani

    –Patricia–I had invited Anthony with Hyacinth’s approval, and they unexpectedly showed up together. I was surprised that Hyacinth had brought our favorite yogurt set, while Raven handed me the apple container.“You can eat all of that since you’re single,” Raven remarked with a pitying look. It was irritating, but I had to endure his constant jibes—after all, my best friend was paying me to tolerate his face.I put the yogurt in the fridge, only to be interrupted by a hand that appeared behind me, placing something next to it. I turned, nearly colliding noses with the newcomer. He quickly raised his hand and apologized, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you.”“No, it’s fine,” I replied with a grin. “You’re not trying to flirt with me, are you?” I teased.“What if I am?” he shot back, laughing and nodding.“You’ll have to ask my best friend’s permission first,” I quipped.He chuckled and patted my arm. “Sure thing. By the way, I have some questions,” he said, extending his arm. I gracefu

    ***Raven*** Rosie had put on quite the show. After days of comforting my wife and convincing her not to blame herself, it seemed to be working—somewhat. But I needed to double down. I had to find that last copy and destroy it, especially now that my wife was gaining fame. Maybe we should stop attending galas altogether. “Why are you packing so much?” I asked as she counted a few items. “We’re off to Europe,” she replied casually. “Babe, we’re not going to Finland again,” I teased. “I didn’t say Finland,” she said, rolling her eyes. “I have work.” “You can work from there. Besides, I made sure the jet is packed.” She winked and held up a piece of lingerie—tempting, to say the least. “Wow, second honeymoon?” I approached her, but she raised a finger to stop me, carefully placing the lingerie into the luggage. “Now I remember—our anniversary is coming up,” I said, walking around her and pulling her waist toward me. “Are you planning to make love to me?” “No way!

    –Raven–As soon as I answered his call, the first thing I heard was his heavy breathing.“I will kill her. I will kill Hyacinth,” Samuel said, as though Hyacinth wasn’t his daughter. His words sent chills down my spine. Even his own flesh and blood—he wanted her dead.“Killing Hyacinth won’t do you any good, Samuel,” I replied, keeping my tone casual.“She said something to Rosie. She must have. Now, tell me—what else did she say to Rosie?”I frowned.“I have no idea what you’re talking about. And whatever Hyacinth said must be true.”“I will end you both!”I sighed and hung up, immediately calling Samuel’s nurse. She answered after a few moments.“What’s going on in there?” I asked.“Unfortunately, Miss Rosie sent a message. She tried to overdose on pills. She’s currently in the emergency room.”I was silent for a moment, processing the news. Rosie—always desperate for attention. No, she wasn’t just seeking attention; she was demanding it. Just earlier, she had threatened Hyacinth, v

    —Stalker’s Point of View—Smelling her, touching her—it almost drove me insane. But it wasn’t just her that consumed me. It was something our family was meant to possess. Her mother was perfect. The epitome of intelligence. A woman who had it all, despite being a commoner, not royalty. Yet everyone wanted her as their daughter-in-law. A genius in everything… except love. “I was thinking that maybe Hyacinth was also a victim of love.” I stood, pacing around my desk, glancing at the piles of recently filed cases. Boring paperwork, but necessary. Even the bomb incident was just another file to clean up. I hadn’t meant to kill anyone—just to isolate her. If everyone around her was gone, taking her would be effortless. But no matter how many times I tried, they clung to her. Maybe I should ruin her relationship with Darcy. “How do I do that?” My fingers tapped against the windowsill as I watched Hyacinth step out of her apartment across the street, her bodyguards trailing like

  • Forced to Marry My Stepbrother   130. Turmoil

    –Hyacinth— I was certain she intended to become my husband’s mistress. Proposing in front of me? Bold. But I had seen Raven flinch multiple times. That woman—Minerva—sat across from him, her foot subtly grazing his ankle, then sliding higher, testing his restraint. Raven’s discomfort was palpable. His glare could have scorched her where she sat. When our orders arrived, I draped my hand possessively over his lap. He shifted under my touch, but I only leaned closer, crossing my legs to shield him from Minerva’s advances. Let her try. “If you want, you can visit the site with us,” Colton offered. “Are we hiking, or…?” I trailed off, waiting. “Fly. We’ll fly,” Dane cut in, grinning. “I’ll be your pilot.” Raven’s hand settled on my thigh, a silent claim. “Let me taste that,” he murmured, nodding toward my tuna. Without hesitation, I fed him a bite, rice and all. Colton groaned. “Oh, come on! I don’t want to be a third wheel here.” I smirked. “Minerva’s here. You don’t
