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 138. What's She's Willing to Risk
–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
Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 137. Protecting Him
–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
Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 136. Happiness and Anxiety
–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
Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 135. Europe R18
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
Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 134. The Lawyer
–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
Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 133. Unspoken Oath
***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! After
Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 132. Suicide
–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
Forced to Marry My Stepbrother 131. Fire
—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
