Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 22. Loosing Sanity
******Hyacinth*****It has been four days since I last spoke with Anthony. His words still make me think of the possibilities. But maybe… just maybe—I can let him do the investigation. But somehow, it scares me. The thought that the truth reveals that Raven was only playing on me. What if he named most of his assets under my name and everything was illegal? I was back to reality when Kelly spoke to me.I looked at my face, which had fewer scars from my acne breakout. It was clearer than before, and my uneven color had lightened. Kelly had given me the treatment set that I have to use every day and every night. She’s kind of strict. I also had an appointment with a nutritionist who emailed me the meal plan every day. I have my very own nutritionist now who is also a chef that Kelly referred me to. “Alright, you have to come back next week and we’ll have to go down there,” Kelly said as I only nodded. “Uhm, Hyacinth. I don’t know what happened between you and Raven but~~I’m sorry if I

****Raven****I went to pick up my wife at Kelly's clinic. She looked sullen… she looked like she had come from crying. It was supposed to be our dinner but then, my phone rang. An emergency again. Damn it. I kissed her lips as I took her to the condo unit that was a few blocks away from the company. Under it was a fancy restaurant. “We had a penthouse here. We will have dinner downstairs at eight-thirty.”I put the luggage over the coffee table and opened it. “I have Irene packed up a few clothes for you.” My phone rang again. It was four in the afternoon, and I wanted to be with my beloved. “Just go,” Hyacinth said. She looked tired as she rummaged through the luggage. “Bud, you are not fine. I can stay if you want.” She turned to him with creased brows. “I don’t want you to stay and get guilty for making you stay. Just go and finish whatever that is.” “Alright, we had a reservation at eight.” I approached her and although she was cranky I still pulled her waist to my body a

*** Hyacinth ***I never felt so pampered again in my life. Raven put lotion all over my body with a good massage that led us to make love. I have to get up to wash after but Raven makes love again. He falls asleep fast after the second round and when he’s in a deep sleep I gently slip off from him and head to the bathroom to pee and wash myself. I put on a negligee and got into bed as I reached my new phone. Although I knew it was late, I messaged my best friend and apologized to her in a long message for not contacting her when I left. I turned my back from Raven as I checked out the latest photos from Rosie and the fact that I kept in as proof. Then, there’s Rosie’s photos with Raven, claiming him as her lover. It still hurts me. And damn it, I wanted to punch Raven right now, but I just scrolled down to see the latest update from Rosie’s schemes. I froze when it was snatched from me. I sat up and saw Raven taking it away from me as he checked it and scrolled it. He glared at m

I sat beside them in the luxurious room that they settled in. Raven had his eyes closed but he’s not sleeping. He was holding my hand tightly like he was afraid of something. I sighed as I felt guilty for forcing him to speak. He was supposed to be asleep and he woke up angrily upon seeing something on my phone. I stood as I climbed over the bed a little and pressed my ears on his chest. If Raven only knew, that it would hurt me seeing him like this. Irene left a while ago after she put our clothes in the closet. She said that she’ll come back by tomorrow. Raven has to stay in the hospital for a few more tests that’s why we can’t leave yet.“I’m sorry, Bud. I’m sorry for making you overthink.” “Just sleep, Raven,” I mumbled. “Kiss me.” “Tsk, stop asking too much.” He chuckled as he threw his arms at me. Shortly, the door opened and I sat up to look at who it was. Darcy entered as I stood and let go of Raven. To my shock, Darcy approached me quickly, hugging me, and then, she rea

*** Darcy***I went to Hyacinth and Raven’s bedroom back in the mansion. Irene mentioned that she already brought decent clothes but I packed a few more for my son and my daughter-in-law. It’s been a long time since I last saw Hyacinth. The wedding was so soon that I didn’t even make it there. Raven had planned something… calculated something… I don’t know what’s going on with his mind sometimes. I sighed again. My heart felt so heavy whenever I remembered it clearly. Hyacinth was so young. She was beautiful and she fell in love too soon. But I knew that feeling well. I fell in love once… And first love was the sweetest and the most bitter and painful one. I was rummaging through Hyacinth’s things as I noticed the small teddy bear that had a pocket. I took it and checked if the small wooden box that came with it was there. Maybe she already saw it? I put it back there as I packed a nice pair of shoes for Hyacinth and for Raven. “Madam,” Irene, Hyacinth’s official maid, called. “Yes

*** Raven *** As soon as I woke up, the first thing I did was to seek for my wife, afraid that she would leave me again. But seeing her snuggled under my arm like a cat relieves my anxiety. I was like a fool grinning ear to ear as I admired her siren face. I lowered my head and kissed her top head. I wanted to make love to her and wake her up with more kisses but I held myself back. I noticed my phone blinking as I extended my left hand to the other side but since it was connected to the dextrose it was hard to reach it. I scooped Hyacinth as I moved closer and when I had done it, it woke her. “Do you need something?” She asked. “No,” I patted her. “Go back to sleep.” She only hummed and I loved it when she snuggled to my chest. I adjusted the light on my phone and I checked the messages that were bombarded by none other than Rosie. She called many times which I am curious about. When I checked her messages, I was puzzled. She said that she was pregnant and just that thought made

***** Raven *****Another way that relieves my headache and relaxes me is when my wife helps me with the release. I badly wanted to have it with her, but she declined. After dinner, we slacked off, and the doctor came to check on me before he left. He mentioned that I needed to stop smoking, drinking, and whatnot. I didn't catch most of it, but Hyacinth seemed to absorb all of it.After the doctor left, Hyacinth was silent. Then, she called back to the mansion and instructed the maids to get rid of tobacco and cigarettes in the house. I grinned as I felt like a child getting scolded. Yes. I want her to scold me. It just made me hard with the thought of her dominating me.“Stop thinking dirty.” She squinted her eyes at me. She headed to the sofa and prepared blankets and pillows from home.“We are sleeping on the bed, my love.”“Nope. I won’t sleep with you this time.”I tilted my head. I went to bed and turned on the television as she snuggled to the pillow. There was a long silence be

*** Hyacinth*** Like a good wife, I prepared a full meal for my husband, complete with the nutrition that he needed. And along with it were the vitamins that he needed to take. I also make sure that there are no cigarettes around him. He had signs of darkness on his lungs now and he needed to detox to get the nicotine out of his body. I love Raven. And I never lied about that. I also don’t want to stress him further with the questions about him sleeping with Rosie. Or other things that he’s not telling me. I tried to gather more evidence so he’d have no choice but to divorce me. Raven probably didn't know about Rosie’s new messages. But I read Rosie’s texts about her pregnancy and he’s the father. There is proof that Rosie slept with him. I don't know how that happens. But there were a lot of photos of him sleeping with his arms around her. Rosie snuck pictures of it because she knew that Raven would disapprove of it. He wanted me badly so that his health deteriorated. I don’t know

Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 98. The Stalker in New York
*** The Stalker ***I made sure my face was concealed, either with a prosthetic or by obscuring my features enough to mislead anyone who might try to identify me. I wore cheap, nondescript clothing that covered me from head to toe, and beneath my winter hat, I tucked away a set of fake dreadlocks. Disguise is an art, and I am its meticulous artist. The headlines had confirmed what I already knew: Hyacinth is perfection incarnate. A flawless wife, a goddess among mortals. Today, she sat in that café near Central Park, the one she frequents. She was draped in a white trench coat, leather boots hugging her slender legs, and a mini dress that teased just enough to drive me mad. Beneath it all, thick socks climbed up her thighs, and the mere thought of peeling them away, of touching her skin, sent shivers of desire through me. But then, my mind wandered to her sister, Raven, who had the audacity to tarnish Hyacinth’s purity. Raven, who claimed Hyacinth lost her virginity at fifteen—or wa

***Raven***Hyacinth was the flower of the night—the only bloom that thrived in the moonlight. She was radiant, captivating, and effortlessly enchanting, much like the woman who had raised her, Margarette Sinclair. Though I hadn’t yet formally met the Sinclairs, it was clear that Hyacinth had brought a sense of joy and peace to Margarette’s family. Watching her interact with Margarette’s eldest son, I could see how her honesty and authenticity had won them over. It was impossible not to fall under her spell. She was introverted, yet she had a way of connecting with people, especially those with old souls. She was extraordinary, and I was endlessly proud to call her mine.After the event, I finally collapsed onto the bed beside her, my body aching from the long evening. Gently, I began massaging her feet, which were undoubtedly sore from hours of standing and walking in those impossibly high heels. I regretted letting the stylist choose such impractical shoes. Next time, I’d make sure
Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 96. Af Forselles Legacy
**Hyacinth**The gala was a dazzling spectacle of opulence and elegance, a symphony of shimmering gowns, polished tuxedos, and the soft clinking of champagne glasses. Crystal chandeliers cast a warm, golden glow over the room, their light reflecting off the intricate jewelry adorning the guests. The air was thick with the mingling scents of expensive perfumes and the faint aroma of hors d'oeuvres being carried by impeccably dressed waiters. It was a world I was still getting used to, but one that felt strangely familiar, as if my mother’s presence lingered in every corner.Meeting so many people who knew my mother filled me with a warmth I hadn’t expected. Their stories painted a picture of a woman who was not only brilliant but deeply loved. The Af Forselles name carried weight here, and I couldn’t help but feel a surge of pride. Perhaps I should shed the Dawson name entirely and embrace my mother’s legacy. My father and Rosie had painted her as someone she wasn’t, but here, among th
Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 95. Hyacinth's First Gala
**Hyacinth** The party in the building was a whirlwind of excitement and exhaustion. The constant social interactions left me drained, and I couldn’t help but feel like I was playing the role of a housewife for Raven. Yet, amidst the chaos, I couldn’t shake the thought of diving deeper into the business world. Was there still room in my packed schedule to learn and grow? “You look stunning,” Raven said, his voice warm as I turned to show him my gown for the Gala. The crimson red dress hugged my curves perfectly, its mermaid cut flowing elegantly to the floor with a subtle slit for ease of movement. The off-shoulder design featured cape sleeves adorned with intricate embroidered spirals and shimmering gems that caught the light with every step. It was breathtaking—and undoubtedly expensive. “Are these real?” I asked, gesturing to the gems that sparkled like stars against the fabric. “Of course, darling,” Raven replied, his grin widening. “Your husband *is* from a mining and jew

***Patricia***Finnish class in the morning, events in the afternoon, and self-defense class later in the day—that’s been our routine lately. Rachel Vanderbilt, the demure yet insistent socialite, has been relentless in dragging us into her world of elite activities. I never imagined I’d be part of this high-society circus, but here I am, playing the role of the dutiful best friend. Hyacinth, my best friend, is married to a young billionaire, and her life is a whirlwind of glamour and obligations. As her assistant, I’m along for the ride, earning a paycheck while trying to keep up. The most exciting part of this new life? Self-defense classes. I’ve taken a liking to kickboxing with Seth, while Hyacinth trains in more lethal techniques involving knives and sharp objects. Our Russian coach is exceptional—so skilled that she’s almost intimidatingly attractive. And no, I’m not bisexual or a lesbian, but I can appreciate beauty when I see it. She’s stunning in a way that feels dangerous.
Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 92. The Art of Ascendancy
**Hyacinth**After four grueling hours of self-defense training, I had envisioned a quiet evening of rest and relaxation. I knew my body would be sore tomorrow, and the thought of Raven’s amorous intentions for the night made me wince. But, as fate would have it, our plans changed. Raven received an invitation to dinner from a friend who lived on the same penthouse floor.As I soaked in a long, luxurious bath, Raven filled me in on our hosts, Mrs. Rachel Vanderbilt and her husband. They owned the entire building and had taken a liking to Raven. He explained how they had invested in his company early on, helping him build his empire alongside his father’s legacy. The Vanderbilts were old-money billionaires, a stark contrast to Raven’s self-made success.With Irene’s assistance, I blow-dried my hair and applied a touch of makeup—something I rarely did on my own. Raven presented me with a sleek black dress that complemented his casual yet elegant outfit. I sighed, longing to lounge in co

***Raven***My body ached, but thankfully, nothing was broken. The memory of the black pickup truck slamming into my car replayed in my mind. I had just unfastened my seatbelt and was reaching for the cake in the backseat when the impact hit. The force wasn’t as devastating as it could have been—I’d managed to avoid the worst of it—but the shock still lingered, leaving me sore and on edge.When we arrived home, the female trainer was already waiting. Hyacinth glanced at her, her expression a mix of curiosity and apprehension, as Seth made the introductions. “This is Crissa Peskov. She’ll be your trainer and fitness coach,” Seth said, his tone formal yet reassuring. Hyacinth smiled warmly and extended her hand. “Hello, I’m Hyacinth, and this is my best friend, Patricia.” “Pleasure to meet you both,” Crissa replied, her Russian accent lending a melodic quality to her words. Hyacinth turned to me, her eyes pleading. “Can we cancel today’s training?” I shook my head firmly. “No.
Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 91. Crushed
***Hyacinth***My heart was a storm, each beat a thunderclap of dread. Every time my eyes caught a glimpse of a bouquet of flowers, my pulse quickened, and a cold sweat broke out on my skin. The world felt like it was closing in, my thoughts a tangled mess. My stomach churned, and my mind was a whirlwind of fear and confusion. I couldn’t focus. I couldn’t breathe. My body trembled uncontrollably, as if the ground beneath me was shaking.“So, do we still have to pick up that coffee or what?” Patricia’s voice broke through my haze, her tone laced with concern. “You know, you can just stay here. I’ll pick it up.”“No, we go. They need coffee and food too,” I insisted, my voice barely steady. I pulled my hood over my head, shielding myself from the world as I followed Patricia into the café. Two bodyguards trailed behind us, their presence both comforting and a stark reminder of the danger that seemed to lurk around every corner. Seth waited in the car, his watchful eyes scanning the surr
Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 90. Possibilities
***Raven***Sleep eluded me entirely after I finished reading Hyacinth’s journal. My mind raced, piecing together every fragment of information, every clue. The thought that it could be Anthony gnawed at me, but I dismissed it. She was always safe when Anthony was around. At least, that’s what I wanted to believe. My suspicions shifted to Eino. His background was sparse, but what I knew painted a picture of a privileged young man dabbling in astrology—a rich kid with a penchant for exploring the world. His family had recently ventured into home security systems—cameras, digital surveillance, the works. I’d already checked the systems they installed at the cabin and traced their origins. Their sister company, or rather, their small-scale business, seemed innocuous enough. But something about Eino didn’t sit right with me. He was the lead I needed to focus on. “You haven’t slept at all, my love,” Hyacinth’s voice broke through my thoughts. She was bundling up in layers, pulling on a p
