Mated To My Obsessive Stepbrother Chapter 10
KESTER.If only she knew. Poor Kasmine. She just sold her soul to the devil by telling me she'd do whatever I wanted her to do.Now, I was looking for the perfect 'favor' to ask of her.Under the guise of handling paperwork, I stayed rooted to my spot, my eyes fixed on her. She didn't know I was watching, and I liked it that way. The glass panel between us offered a perfect view of her, yet it wasn't enough to bridge the space I ached to close.Kasmine sat at her desk, her attention absorbed by the monitor. She brushed a strand of hair away from her face, the gesture so small and unassuming, yet it sent an ache through me. That hair, dark and soft, had once rested against my shoulder when she fell asleep in the car as kids. How could something so simple haunt me like this now?Her lips moved as she murmured something under her breath, likely annoyed at whatever task she was handling. The sight made my chest tighten.Gods, she was exquisite. A picture of innocence wrapped in temptation

KASMINE."I am so sorry. I..." I said, heaving a sigh of frustration.The phone felt slippery in my hand as I clutched it tightly, careful to keep my voice low. My heart pounded with an anxious rhythm that almost left me breathless."Kasmine... I know it's not your fault, but how many more apologies will you have to offer?" He questioned."I'm trying, Jake," I whispered, pressing my palm against my mouth to muffle the words. "I don't know how to make him see reason. Kester is—he's suffocating me." My voice cracked, and I bit down hard on my lip to stifle a sob.On the other end, Jake's silence lingered for a beat too long before he finally spoke. "Mine, you have to fight for yourself. You deserve your own life. He can't keep dictating everything you do." His voice was so gentle that it made my chest ache more.He chose to call me 'Mine'. From Jake, the name felt sweet, almost natural, as if the name belonged to me and not to his control. But from Kester… it was different. Every time h

KESTER.Kasmine was chaos personified, her presence pulling every dark and dangerous thread of restraint I had taut. Well, she would always bear the consequences, as far as I was concerned.She could yell, curse, and claw at the barriers I'd built, but ultimately, she was mine. She just didn't know it yet.Although I couldn't get my hands on any solid evidence yet, I knew she was hiding something. And according to my source, there was more I needed to know about her and Jake, which was why I made him an offer he couldn't refuse. Of course, that was after I made sure he was suddenly discharged from his place of internship without any offense.Everyone has a price. The trick is knowing which strings to pull... and when to tighten them."Everything is set now, Alpha," Knox said."You may leave," I dismissed him and his team.I had returned home early today. I know Mine would have the chance to talk to that subhuman in my absence, but it was okay. I was handling a better situation here at

"Kasmine, why don't you talk to your brother? Tell him how much I like him," Claire was at it again.It was lunchtime, and we sat in the cafeteria together, including Jake. I hoped Kester wouldn't get angry over this because I wasn't alone with Jake. In fact, he should feel much better that it was all three of us, which would further prove to him that there was nothing going on between me and Jake."I've told you before," I said, stabbing my fork into my food with unnecessary force. "My brother and I are sworn enemies at the moment. I can't help you, Claire. Sorry."Claire gave a theatrical sigh."You haven't been eating, Mine. Is everything okay?" Jake asked.I froze, the concern in his voice startling me. Was it that obvious? My hand hovered over my plate as I fumbled for a response."I'm fine," I lied smoothly—or tried to. "I just..." My breath hitched, betraying me, so I added, "I miss my mum. I wish I could see her soon."Another lie. It tasted like ash on my tongue, bitter and u

KESTER.Getting your head back on straight is hard enough on a typical day.But when you've just seen her—a stunning, maddening woman in one of those tiny dresses I've warned her not to wear—fuck, it becomes nearly impossible.The small, flowery dress clung to her curves like a second skin, so short and delicate I could probably shred it with a single tug of my fingers. The image of it falling away, the bare expanse of her skin beneath, burned in my mind.And those green eyes of hers... Why the hell does she stare at me like that? Like she knows exactly what she's doing to me.It wrecks me every time.Blood rushed south, hot and primal, and I nearly lost myself. Again.Now, here I was, tortured and frustrated, staring at my laptop and watching her read a book.I was fucking watching her read a book!Her long legs are tucked under her, the hem of that damned dress riding up just enough to tease. I could watch her for the rest of my life.I shouldn't be watching her. I know that. But th

KASMINE.I'd been looking everywhere for the new and only bikini I had bought last week. I only used them once, and I was sure I had kept them in my closet, but now I couldn't find them. I didn't come with the ones I had at home because Kester never liked them.But last week, I told myself he could go fuck himself while I got myself a new pair. Although he hadn't seen it yet. Unless... No. He couldn't have found it. He wouldn't enter my room to search for and take my bikini without at least confronting me about it.A swim would have surely gone a long way in calming the storming raging inside me. Jake and Claire have been unreachable all day. My life was miserable! I was literally losing it.I was bored to death. Kester had instructed his men not to let me out of their sight. The entire house was well guarded. I couldn't even sneak out if I wanted to.I jumped out of bed angrily to confront the guards for the fifth time today to let me out. They opted to walk with me even when I told

KASMINE.I dropped to my knees beside the bed, staring at the pile of my belongings with a mix of horror and confusion. My mind raced, searching for an explanation, but there was none. None that made sense.Kester… my brother… had kept all these things. He'd taken them.I felt sick. My chest tightened, and the room seemed to spin around me.My hands were still trembling when I noticed a book. It had fallen out of the box, landing near my feet. The leather-bound cover was worn, its edges frayed as though it had been handled countless times. A diary.I stared at it for what felt like an eternity, my pulse hammering in my ears. Fear clawed at my insides, twisting and tightening until I felt like I couldn't breathe. I didn't want to pick it up. Whatever was inside that diary, I knew it wouldn't make anything better. It would make it worse. So much worse.But I couldn't leave it untouched. Not after everything I'd already uncovered.My fingers hesitated before finally reaching for it. Slow

KESTER.She had seen it all. My little secret. I've been gathering and preserving them for years now, and all it took to discover them was her curiosity. She never lets things be. And now, she'll face the full brunt of the beast she had just unleashed."Kes...Kester..." I could hardly hear her voice over the wild rush of blood pumping in my veins.I took slow steps forward, but she backed away until her heels collided with the bed behind her, and she fell into a sitting position on the bed.She was a trembling mess on the bed, her wide, tear-glazed eyes locked on mine like prey caught in the gaze of a predator. Her lips quivered as though she wanted to speak but couldn't find the courage.Her cute little face was wet with tears, and her eyes were swollen and red."Why did you come into my room, Kasmine?" I asked, doing all I could to calm the raging storm in me.She froze immediately, her small hands clutching the hem of her tank top, wringing it nervously. Her tank top. Her skimpy sh

KESTER.It felt like death was licking at my heels.The sky outside had been brooding all day—clouds thick and grey. Fitting perfectly with my mood. Almost like the universe knew it, too, that this wasn't a celebration. This was like me attending my own funeral.My room was quiet and tense. The kind of silence you feel in your gut.Norlan was seated at the edge of the couch, his palms pressed together and his eyes distant. He looked like he'd just walked out of a car crash. And truth? I didn't look or feel any better.I stood in front of the mirror, fixing my tie with fingers that wouldn't fucking stop shaking. Each tug felt like it was tightening a noose around my own neck.Fuck.I'd never been this nervous in my life. Not even when I was wrongly diagnosed and taken to the psychiatric ward years ago. Not when I gave my first speech in front of the board. Not even when I kissed Kasmine for the first time.This was different.This wasn't nerves. This was my body revolting. My heart kne

KASMINE.I hurried to the front door to get it.Finally, one normal person who isn't part of the whole drama in my life decided to pay me a visit.Claire.It was a Friday morning, and instead of dragging ourselves to school like every other week, Claire and I had made other plans. Shopping. We were hunting for my birthday dress and maybe—if we had time—a dress for the engagement party tomorrow.Anything to take my mind off things. Especially after watching the news clip I found on Instagram over and over again where June spoke about Kester and their love story. Repeating, again and again, that the deal her father made with him had nothing to do with their engagement. That Kester earned it.I could hear his voice behind every line.He had made her say those things. And desperate, infatuated June would gladly walk barefoot across thorns if it meant pleasing him."Let me grab my phone—uhm, just sit. I'll be right back," I told Claire after a quick hug. Her smile was soft and tired, but i

KASMINE.I hadn't even dropped the cup of coffee when a high-pitched, syrupy giggle broke the silence and nearly startled me into cardiac arrest.My body jerked so fast in the direction of the sound that the dizziness I'd been ignoring all morning slammed harder into my skull, turning my vision into a funhouse mirror. Fantastic. If the walls spun any harder, I might start levitating.Maybe it was finally time I stopped playing tough and visited the damn hospital."Look who I get the pleasure of meeting all alone in the kitchen!"Karina's voice was a little too loud and sweet, like poisoned honey—and her expression? Pure sunshine with a chance of lunacy. Too abnormal to be this cheerful so early in the morning.God. Was she high or something?She had that glittery-eyed, overenthusiastic vibe of someone who'd either snorted something very illegal or returned from making a deal with the devil. Or maybe she was the devil. Who could tell with her?Either way, I didn't have the energy for i

KASMINE.I knew we were both angry, volatile, simmering with tension that had been building for far too long—but it was different with Kester.I felt it when we were both caught in the moment last night, letting off all the steam that had been brewing between us for days now.I absentmindedly stirred the hot cup of coffee that had gone lukewarm, my mind drifting to what happened last night. My thighs still ached faintly from how rough it had been.Yes. I know. Call me selfish. Call me a monster. Because I let my big brother fuck me while his fiancé was sleeping alone in his room, wrapped in her pretty little lies and future wedding plans.But I needed that. I craved it. I didn't care about right or wrong. June had the rest of her life to play happy bride with him. I only had two days left before everything changed, before I'd be stripped from his life and forced to play someone else's puppet.So, yeah. I let him have me. And I took every second of it like a dying woman clinging to her

KASMINE."Let me go, Kester!" I managed to choke out, but my words barely made it past my dry throat. I clawed at his arm as I struggled against the iron grip around my throat.His body pressed into mine, caging me against the wall, heat radiating from him like an inferno.But it was his eyes—those eyes—that made terror freeze up my blood.Dark. Dilated. Ferocious.Unhinged."Kester," I gasped, my voice cracking, "you're hurting me!"His lips curled into a wicked, twisted smile. "Good," he murmured, as if that was what he wanted, as if my panic was exactly what he needed. "Good.""Please..." I breathed."What? Can't stand the beast you awakened?" He seethed, his words coming in a snarl. "Such a perfect performance tonight, Kasmine. Bravo."His voice was simmering with a madness that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. It was like I wasn't even looking at the man I knew anymore. This was something else—something unrecognizable and dangerous.His face was inches from mine, b

KASMINE.I didn't want to be down here.God, I really didn't.Every fiber in me screamed to stay tucked away in the safety of my room, buried under the warmth of silence and solitude. But I threw that choice away the moment I glanced at my phone and saw his name lighting up my screen again.Jaden.I'd been ignoring his calls for days—pressing decline like a reflex, almost like breathing. He must've finally gotten the message because he stopped calling and started texting instead.Persistent bastard.And maybe whatever deity decided to touch him with a bit of remorse didn't quite finish the job — because despite the fact that he was trying to apologize for how our first date went, he still had that sprinkle of arrogance like a perfume he refused to wash off.It was... irritating.And oddly entertaining.But it was a good distraction reading his texts – a stupid, oddly timed, mildly amusing distraction in a world where everything else felt like it was rotting around me – because they ma

KESTER.I headed downstairs to join the others who were already chatting away at the dining.The table reeked of discomfort.My maternal uncle, Greg, was there—of course. Along with my father's cousins, Ralph and Vincent. The kind of men who wore expensive suits to hide the mediocrity clinging to their bones.Everyone I despised seated neatly around the table like some perfectly plated disease.Especially Uncle Greg.The man reminded me so much of my mother. Same passive-aggressive smirks. Same polished speech. Same Hazel eyes. The woman I hated. The woman I still, fucking tragically, loved. A contradiction I hadn't learned how to overcome yet.And what the fuck was Karina doing here?Family dinner? She wasn't family. She was an asterisk in this gathering.She wasn't family for fuck's sake!Jorja, bless her diplomatic little heart, had that signature 'ignore-it-all-and-smile' expression smeared across her face like it was waterproof. She was clearly committed to enjoying her evening,

KESTER.I've been on my phone all fucking day.Texting. Calling.Putting out fires and lighting new ones.Ensuring everything was under control and went as planned while preparing for this damned dinner.Everything had to work out fine. And soon enough. Because the sooner it happened, the quicker I'd get back with Kasmine and fix what was shattering between us.I was losing myself. Slowly unraveling, I swear it.With the steps I have taken and with June's promise to me the other day, I was certain the engagement ring wouldn't sit too long on June's finger before I call it off.I also had other plans to make sure King Mellors would not be able to undo the help he was about to render now when I call off the engagement. All of that is in the pipeline.It was already time for the dinner.My least favorite hour tonight.I checked the time again on my phone, locking the screen before the image of Kasmine's naked body, which I was looking at moments ago, forced me to go into her room this mi

KESTER.The silence in my office was a strange kind of loud. Even with Lance droning on about the weekly updates, every word felt like a whisper slipping through a fog.It was becoming increasingly difficult to stay even a second without being around or seeing Kasmine.Fuck.It was all getting to my head, and I didn't know how much longer I could deal with this distance she was forcing on us.My heart kept beating at an unhealthy speed, and, fuck... I needed her like an antidote. I was gradually losing my shit."...So the farmers are requesting Keliud fertilizer to the previous one we used before," Lance finished a sentence he made that practically flew over my attention.I nodded slowly, rubbing the heel of my palm against my brow. "Get it for them."He paused. I could feel his gaze on me, like he was waiting for me to actually engage. But I didn't have the strength to fake it today.Hell, I hadn't slept properly. Not since I walked out of her room last night with her voice still ech
