MercyCrownBeen waiting to write that one hehe>< Thank for you waiting and reading! Was a bit later than planned because I wrote more. Hope you enjoyed the three chapters and the next update won’t be double since I already upload three now. I’ll upload just one chapter at usual time later. Haha, just kidding; I’ll do double if I’m able to make it, if not, it’ll be just one. Thank you for your patience and don’t forget to leave me gems, reviews and comments! We’re getting nearer to the end of James and Elizabeth’s story:(

ELIZABETH.Anger surges through me as I continue to stare at the space James disappeared from.I wipe my tears, and without giving it much thought; I make for the door.Mom is standing in the middle of the living room when I enter with confusion creasing her brows. She sighs when she sees me. "Elizabeth? What’s going on? I just saw—""Not now, Mom." I give a curt response and I don’t wait for her to say more words before approaching the front door. I step out of the house and my eyes quickly do a scan of the surroundings. James’ car is gone and, as expected, Jared is still standing right there.I watch the corner of his mouth lift when his eyes meet mine and that only further infuriates me."Hey, did I cause trouble between you and your—""What the fuck is wrong with you?" I scream at him once I reach him and his eyebrows shoot up. "Wow, tiny. That was the loudest—""Don’t fucking call me that and stop fucking messing with me!" I see the surprise in his eyes broaden with each word tha

JAMES."And where exactly are you coming from?" I jump, startled at the voice that echoes to me in the darkness, and the next second, the light comes on; revealing Samantha standing in the middle of the room with her arms crossed to her chest and a harsh look in her eyes."Hi. Um—I didn’t think you’d still be up." I chuckle nervously and her gaze softens. She uncrosses her arms and steps forward. "How do you think the door is unlocked?""Right," I mumble as I remain by the door. Samantha is standing closer now and her suspicious eyes search mine as silence takes hold. I swallow past the tightness of my throat before averting my gaze. "I’ll be heading in—""What’s up with you two?" She interrupts before I can finish speaking, and I look back at her. "What?" I know exactly what she means, but I still feign ignorance and her eyes narrow. "You fought? I don’t know what went down, but Elizabeth won’t speak to me."At the sound of her name, my heart skips a beat and I can’t resist asking. "W

ELIZABETH."Where did you go?" I ask James as I wrap my legs around his waist, caging him between my thighs as he leaves kisses from my neck to my throat. I bury a hand in his hair and lift my neck when he starts sucking on my throat harder; his tongue sliding against the bump and I whimper at his kisses."James." I wrap my free hand around his arm and he pulls back. He smiles as he looks into my eyes. "I just drove around.""For hours?" I lift a brow and he nods. "I parked at some place I didn’t even know after a while. I needed to make sure I got my head wrapped around things before coming back." I haven’t gotten a chance to respond to those words when James' hand moves to my chest, pushing through the opened buttons of my top to palm my boob. "Enough talking. I want you now."My lips spread and I tighten the hand around his arm. "Then have me. What’s stopping you? I’m all yours always."His mouth lifts at my words, and he closes in to take my lips again. He squeezes my breast as hi

ELIZABETH.James has been… weird.Distant, maybe.Everything was okay while we were at my mom’s. We talked. We smiled, and we went on small dates. We also had amazing sex; literally every other hour of the day. I went to sleep with his cock in my pussy and woke up with either his tongue or fingers fucking me.The last four days we spent at my mom’s were possibly—no, not possibly. Unquestionably—the greatest moments of my life and my fondest memories.But everything changed when we came back to school. I don’t know what I’ve done wrong or why he went from holding me every second to putting a very noticeable distance between us. I’ve tried to think of the reasons that could cause this change and I’ve arrived at nothing. We already settled the Jared thing so I know he can’t still be mad at that, yet I wonder why he only steals glances at me now when he thinks I’m not watching and why he’s refused to give me something more than just a kiss for almost a week now.A thought comes to mind an

ELIZABETH. My throat dries and my fingers clench around the cup I’m holding. "What are you—why are you here?""I wasn’t stalking you. I was just—" he takes back the step he brings forward when he sees me move back. "Right. I forgot you don’t want to see me. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to bump into you. I swear, Beth, I didn’t. I’m just here with my friends. I’m not trying to upset you or anything."I don’t respond and when Jared realizes I have nothing to say; he sighs and moves further back. "Enjoy the rest of the party."I let out a breath I didn’t realize I held as I watch his frame disappear through the dark and I jump at the sound of my phone ringing. My lips spread in a smile and I pick up the call before pressing the device to my ear. "Hey! Where are you? I’ve been here for a while and you’re still not here.""I’m sorry, love. I had to help out a friend, so I got delayed, but I’m on my way right now; just stuck in frustrating traffic.""Was it Oli?" I smile as I twirl the cup in m

JAMES.Fuck.My back slams against the seat and I feel a trail of blood run across my cheek. I wince at the pain that circuits through my body before undoing my seatbelt and leaning forward to grab my phone.The screen is a bit cracked, and it doesn’t turn on when I try to.I turn my head when someone pounds on my car door and worry covers the stranger’s face as she stares down at me alongside another man I do not recognize. "Are you okay?"With my heart thumping in my chest, I drop my phone and climb out of the car. There’s a crowd surrounding my car and two others that were involved and eyes fall on me as I step into the sight."Do you need to get to the hospital? Hello, are you okay? Can you tell me your name? I don’t think he can even hear us.""Phone," I whisper to no one in particular, trying to focus on a thought amidst the chattering and sentences of worry from the crowd. "Phone. I need—"Fuck. I feel dizzy."Hey!" When I blink again, someone is already by my side and she wrap

ELIZABETH. I can’t. If James—No. I promised him. I told him I was done with Jared and I won’t let this be the situation that orchestrates his—"It doesn’t have to mean anything." Jared’s voice comes again and when I look back at him, he nods. "Just see me as a stranger who’s helping out. I’ll keep my mouth shut throughout the ride and I’ll leave the second you have him with you. I just want to do something selfless for you, Beth. Please, let me."I swallow at the emptiness and look at the road before me. After another glance back at the building behind me, I rise back to my feet and pull on the strand of my bag. "It means nothing.""Absolutely nothing." He agrees and I nod. "Alright. Lead the way.""Thank you." A ghost of a smile covers his face and his eyes twinkle, as though I’m the one doing him a favor instead of the other way around. "Come on." I remain still on my feet for a few seconds before nodding and following after him as he leads me to his car."I’m okay," I say when he

JAMES.My jaw clenches as I stare at Jared, who stands a few feet away from us with a purse in hand. When I don’t get a response to my question, I look back at Elizabeth and she’s turned to him. She swallows before she turns to me and she smiles softly, "Nothing. I couldn’t get a cab—""He brought you here?" I ask with lifted brows, and she nods slowly. "It wasn’t intentional, I promise you. I couldn’t get a hold of Miley and Darcy at the party and there were no cabs around either, and time was running. I couldn’t wait for another second so I had no choice but I promise you nothing happened in the—""Hey." I lift an arm over hers to cup her cheek. "I know nothing happened. Of course, nothing did. I trust you, love.""I know how you feel about him." She drops her head and I lift her gaze again. "Yeah, I still don’t want—" I stop and sigh. "You had no other choices left, just like you said."Liz’s eyes search me, and she pushes out her lips. "Are you mad?""Why’d I be?" I chuckle and sh

ELIZABETH.—TWO MONTHS LATER.Miley is saying something about organizing a party for my birthday, but I’m not paying attention as my gaze runs along the words on my screen, my left palm pressed to my cheek. As if she’s right here with me and knows I’m not listening, her voice booms through the speaker, "Elizabeth? You’re not listening to me, are you?"I gaze at the phone on the desk, and the screen reads for fifteen minutes. I think I stopped paying attention around five minutes, but I still lie and say, "Of course I am.""What were my last words?""You were saying…" I trail off and there’s silence on her side. "… something about Darcy and a party.""Elizabeth!" I can imagine the frown on her face as she calls my name and I chuckle, finally grabbing the phone as I lean back in my chair. "Sorry, I’m just busy with work. I really don’t want a party, Mile.""Are you leaving for James?"I purse my lips, a small wave of sadness hitting me and my voice is small when I answer, "No. He’s busy,
My Stepbrother Bonus Chapter - James + Elizabeth
ELIZABETH.—FOUR YEARS LATER.I’m nervous.My harsh breathing fills the tiny space of the car and I rub my palms together before I look out the window with my heart racing in my chest.Everything goes past me in a blur. Houses, shops and restaurants. And the closer the car gets me to him, the faster my heart pounds; so loud that I can no longer hear the words the driver is uttering to me.I don’t know why I’m this nervous.Actually, I do. I haven’t seen him in almost a year. It shouldn’t be any big deal since we speak occasionally over the phone; video calls, voice calls, texts. We tried to remain close in every way possible and although I had tried hard to convince myself those were more than enough; I knew they couldn’t compare to seeing him with my naked eyes. Like I’m about to do very soon.I’ve been counting down the days until I’ll stand before James and now that it’s come, I can’t help the nervousness that spikes through me. Along with a tiny fear. I don’t want it to be there, b
My Stepbrother NOTE!
Hello loves,First, I’d love to thank you all for being so patient with me on this book. Despite the long gap between the updates and my disappearance, you still waited patiently for James and Elizabeth’s story and no words can describe how thankful I am to have you all. I won’t lie; I wasn’t so sure I’d be able to find the excitement I felt when I first started this book again because I was away from the characters for so long. But I did. I found the spark I had from the beginning and I enjoyed the time I spent writing this book. Thank you all so much for pushing me and forcing me out—though some comments were harsh, I still appreciate them all haha.Now to my updating schedule.It’s been a mess, hasn’t it? I know there’s been too much gap between my updates and you might not believe me when I say this, but I hate missing frequent/daily updates just as much as y’all do. It makes me less disciplined and incompetent when I don’t write as much as I plan to and I especially hate disappoin

ELIZABETH.~A MONTH LATER.We stayed in San Francisco for a week and only left after Lily’s discharge. When we got back to Los Angeles, I could still tell everything that happened back there took a toll on James. Although he tried to hide it, tried to smile more; it was evident everything he learned from his parents had taken something from him and I was scared for a long time he’d never get that back.But he did… or at least he’s trying.His eyes are no longer as dull as they seemed when we first arrived, and I can see the spark in them. Each of the smiles he throws at me now is genuine and he spends less time trying to hide the pain he feels. He’s being himself again—he’s being my James, and he’s back to me.I haven’t felt as at ease as I did six nights ago when he woke me up in the middle of the night and just laid his head on my chest as he cried in my arms. He poured out his pain to me one last time and since then, he can speak about his mom without looking like it’s the last thin

ELIZABETH.James' brows crease at Gabriel’s words, and I squeeze my hand in his as my heart pounds in my chest."What? What are you talking about?" James asks and Gabriel shakes his head, a sad look in his eyes. "I’m sorry, son. She left.""What do you mean, she left?" James' voice raises higher and Gabriel swallows, "I was just—she was here when I arrived. She was asleep, and I just went to the reception to settle the bills and make some inquiries, but when I got back; she was gone. And your sister was crying. She said Zara left and said to not look for her."I feel my heart breaks in my chest for both of them and James' grip on my hand gets increasingly tighter till it starts to hurt but I don’t pull away. He remains silent and just stares at the man before us—who looks just as shaken by the revelation."I’m so sorry, I didn’t—""No." James voices out now and his tight grip starts to loosen. I hear him exhale before he says, "It’s good she left, and like you said; she doesn’t want t

JAMES."I thought you left," Elizabeth sighs in my arms, her grip around me growing tighter and I smile as I finally drop a hand on her back, pressing her closer to me. "And where would I go, love?"She pulls back by a bit so she can look into my eyes and her lips push out as she speaks. "I don’t know. I just thought—""Thought I’d run from you?" I finish for her and when she doesn’t respond, I lean down to take her lips. It’s meant to be just a soft reassuring peck, but Elizabeth moves her hands to my neck, deepening the kiss as her fingers play with the hair at the back of my head and I move a hand to her cheek, tilting her head back so I can plunge my tongue inside her mouth.She cups my neck with a palm, her fingers digging into the skin as she moans into the kiss and I move my free hand to the small of her back; I rest it on her ass as my tongue clashes against hers, heat spreading across my skin at the taste and feel of her.When I feel my pants tightening at the front, I start t

ELIZABETH.He doesn’t stop sobbing as he clings onto me as though he’s afraid he’d drift away if he doesn’t and with each loud cry that leaves his mouth, a piece of my heart breaks for him.I can feel the anguishing pain with each sound that leaves him, and his body shakes in my embrace. I let out a soft exhale as tears roll down my cheeks while I continue to slide a hand down his back, whispering soft promises I’ll do anything to keep. "You’ll be fine, baby. You’re alright. I’m here. I’m here with you."We stay in the position for what feels like long and after a while, his sobs quiet down, but he doesn’t move away from me, his breath hot on my neck and I swallow through the tightness of my throat. "I’m always here with you."The sound of our breathing echoes through the corners of the room and James starts to pull back. He removes his arms from around me but I keep the one hand on the back of his neck as I lift my gaze to stare at him. His eyes are red as he holds my gaze, and I giv

ELIZABETH.I run after him with my heart breaking for him, but he’s just too fast. He dashes through corners quickly before I can even catch up to him, but I don’t stop chasing after him, either.I know this must be too much for him, but I just want to be there for him. I want him to know someone hurts for him. But he doesn’t wait for me to do either of those things.When I rush out the entrance door and stop only a few steps away with my heart pounding in my chest and my eyes scanning the corners, I don’t see him.I don’t see James.The car is here, but he isn’t. He left. He ran without me.I push a hand through my hair before taking out my phone from the back pocket of the pants I have on—his pants. My pulse is racing as I press the phone to my ear after dialing his number, and it rings. It rings and my purse vibrates, reminding me that he left his phone with me on our way here.God, James. Please. Please, just be alright. Don’t do anything stupid and be fucking alright.Please.Drea

JAMES.Everything else shatters around me as I stare at her with disbelief coursing through my veins, wanting more than anything for her to take back those words—to tell me this is some kind of sick joke.She doesn’t.Instead, her tears fall even more as she proceeds to say, "I’m so sorry, Gabriel. I didn’t mean to—" a sob breaks out, and she shuts her eyes tightly. When she opens them again, they’re so red that it’s hard to act like she doesn’t know what she’s speaking about. She does. Oh God, she does."What are you saying, Zara?" Dad’s quiet voice comes, no doubt he’s as frightened as I am. "James is my son. He’s always been. He’s been from his birth, so why are you—""He isn’t." She insists, and I gulp down the bitterness that’s quickly rising in my throat. My hand shakes in hers and I quickly let go, fisting my hands in the fabric of my pants to try to stop the trembling. "I cheated. Years back. I was married to you, but I was in love with someone else.""Zara…""I’m sorry. I kno
