ASHLEY.
"I'm so fucking glad you're here!" I scream, running into Lucy's arms, and she laughs, wrapping her arms around me with a soft smile as I rest my head against her shoulder.
"How was it? Was it really bad?" I question as I pull back, and she shakes her head, murmuring, "The usual, then dad left home. "
"I'm so sorry, Lucy. I truly am. " I whisper, and she lifts her eyes to meet my gaze with raised brows.
"Why are you sorry?" She queries, and I remain silent. "You don't have to be sorry, Ashley. This isn't your fault. It's theirs, and honestly, I'm so damn tired of them. All I want right now is to just get the hell out of that house. " She speaks with pain evident in her voice, and I don't say anything, but wrap my arms around her.
"You know you'll be leaving your younger brothers when that time comes. Do you plan on leaving them with

ASHLEY. I open my eyes to the brightness of the room, my head banging too loud, and a hiss slips through my parted lips as I sit up on the bed; resting against the headboard. With one hand on my head, I gaze around the room. It smells of wealth. And in a different situation, I would have been awed, but right now; I'm so angry. I'm precisely fuming as I look around for any sign of Darren. I knew there was something off about him, but I stopped doubting him when we got closer, and how stupid could I have been? Does this explain how he got to know my house, and Sinclair? No one knows about Sinclair. Not even my best friend, so who the hell is this guy really? And how long has he been stalking me? A hiss slips through my lips as I look around for my phone, but of course, he took it. He wouldn't be dumb enough to leave the mobile with me. I don't know where the fuck I am, or how the fuck I'm supposed to get out of he
ASHLEY. My hands tremble as I grab onto the frame, and take steps back, while Darren moves forward with slow strides that scares the shit out of me. "How... How did you?" I ask in a shaky breath as I stare between him, and the frame in hand. This is my room! And looking closely; there's one of my novels beside me in this frame, which means he took a picture of me in my room? While I was masturbating? But how? I never... Oh God, this is driving me insane. "I never saw you as the type to do those things, love. " Darren's voice startles me out of my thoughts, and I take steps backwards until my back hit the wall, and I'm sandwiched between his body, and the wall. He leans closer, placing a hand beside my head, and whispering, "But it only made you more perfect than you already were. " He tucks a strand of my hair behind my ear, as his lips graze faintly against my earlobe
LUCINDA."It's a dead end. " I mumble under my breath as the woman watch me with a strange expression on her face."How may I help you, young lady?" She speaks startling me out of my thoughts, and I bow politely with a small smile on my face.Stepping back, I say, "I'm so sorry to disturb you, but is there a resident here that goes by the name Darren Hollands?" I know it's a dead end. Judging by this young woman's face; there's no way she could be Darren's mother, and there's no resemblance of her being his family."I'm sorry, but I think you got the wrong address. " She says, and I nod. She glances over her shoulder at the voice that calls out, and she responds in what sounds to be French before turning her gaze back to me."Is that all, young miss? I have to get back to my family. " She jerks her head to the side, and I nod, bowing again.
ASHLEY."You shouldn't have. " I tell Sinclair as I stare at Darren's body, and he shrugs, moving to stand beside me."He was running his mouth, Little Greene. I had to. " He assures, wrapping a hand around my shoulder."What are we going to do now?""Wait for them to be back. " He grabs hold of my hand, and pulls me to settle on the mattress."Who are we waiting for?""Vincent, and Lucinda. They went to the station, and they should be here anytime soon. " He says with his eyes on Darren's body, and I nod as I watch him."How did you guys figure out? I didn't think it worked. " I say, and Sinclair shakes his head, saying, "It actually did, and it helped a lot. "The room falls into silence as we watch Darren, and Sinclair suddenly grabs hold of my waist; pulling me to his lap.
ASHLEY. "But not right now. " He says, cutting my excitement short. "I can't fuck you right now, Little Greene. I'm not with condoms, your brother is downstairs, and your mother is rooms away from here. " He chuckles, pulling back, and my heart sinks, but I know he's speaking the truth. "But while I can't do that; there's something else I can do. " He smirks as he rubs his finger against my wetness, and a moan slips through my parted lips as I shut my eyes. "I can make you feel good with my fingers, Ashley. " He whispers, and I hum, grinding against his finger. "Let's get rid of those panties, yeah?" He says, and I nod. Sinclair raises, lifting me in his arms before flipping me to the back, and laying me against the mattress. I spread my legs apart for him to settle between them, and he clench each thigh, lifting each to rest against his sh
ASHLEY. "Sinclair, " I whimper, grabbing hold of his head as he takes my breast in his mouth; his tongue swirling around the bud, while his cock remains buried deep in me; tearing my pussy apart, and my vision becomes blurry with tears. It hurts. It hurts so fucking much, because he's so big, and I can barely take in everything, but Goddamn it, does it hurt so good? "How does it feel, Little Greene? Tell me. How does it feel to have my cock in you?" He whispers, his hand moving to my ponytail to pull my gaze to meet his, and I part my lips to say something, but what comes out are moans. "Tell me, Ashley. How good I make you feel. Have I satisfied your naughty thoughts of having me buried in you? I bet it's even better. " He groans as he pulls back, and slams in completely; forcing a scream from my mouth as my head falls against his shoulder. Pant
SINCLAIR. I had one thing to do. Just one thing I needed to do to keep that fine line between messing around with Vincent's little sister and fully getting involved with her. I needed to not get addicted, and I thought I pulled that off better than I anticipated, but turns out I'm wrong. I wasn't. I'm certainly not. Especially not after having been so deep inside her. Ashley is like a little sister to me. I've never seen, nor looked at her in a different light other than that, but that changed when I came back. Something seemed to have changed about her. Maybe it was for the fact that she looked more mature than the little girl I knew years ago with glasses the size of her entire face. Or maybe it was because of those damn pyjamas she had on that night.&n
ASHLEY. I don't think I've ever moved so fast in my entire life. The echoes of my heart pounding against my chest are loud in my ears as my widened eyes move to Lucinda who's standing by my door with shock unmistakable in her features. "What... What the... What's happening?" She questions, her eyes moving to me and I let out a sigh, striding towards her and peeking over her shoulder before dragging her in and shutting the door behind us; this time making sure I click the lock. I was so engrossed with the sight of Sinclair spread across my bed that I forgot to fúcking lock the door. Vincent could have been the way to walk in through that door and the thought of my brother snagging me in bed with his best friend in an extremely intimate position terrifies me and I shake my mind off the thought– taking my attention to the scene before me. Sinclair's gaze is on Lucinda and
RALPH. "You're here. " I smile, moving from my seat to give Ashley a hug before she slides into the seat across from me, while I settle back on mine. "Hey, Ralph. How are you?" She smiles, removing her glasses and leaning forward. "I haven't heard from you in a while. A surprise you called. " "Yeah. We've all been busy, haven't we?" I say and she nods, keeping that gentle smile on her face. "Do you want to order anything before—" I start and she shakes her head. "No. I'm good. Are you?" "Sure, I am. " I respond and she hums, narrowing her eyes at me when I say no other word. "You wanted to meet?" "Yes. " I nod, linking my fingers and dropping them in front of me. "I want to talk to you about something important, and I don't know if you've heard it from Lucy or—" "What's it?" She asks and I take a breath before I continue, "You know she's pregnant, don't you?" Her eyes widen. "She is?" I push my head back. "You don't? I thought she'd tell you about that. " "No, she didn't.
Hey, Sweethearts! While wait for Lucy and Ralph's chapter that I'll be releasing this evening, which will be the last bonus chapter that'll close SIN entirely; I just want to let you know that Arabella's story is out!! I know some of you wanted to see her development, and now you have it. Her book is out, and it's titled CRAVE. You can go under my author's icon to see it or simply search for it. CRAVE is a new journey, so it'll be needing all of your support. There are only three chapters available now, so do add to your library, spare some votes for the new one and do leave a review on your thoughts of her story. They'll all be well appreciated. Once again, I'll thank you guys for sticking with SIN to the end. I hope you'll give Arabella the same support you give her brother:-) Thank you, and see you soon again.
DAVE. ✓THREE MONTHS AGO. ASHLEY'S WEDDING. ~ "Hey, I thought Ashley said you weren't in town. " I turn to see Lucy approaching me and I smile at her as she stands in front of me. "I wasn't, but I am now. " "Just for the wedding?" She teases and I laugh, "I couldn't afford to miss it now, could I?" "Definitely not. " She agrees and we both laugh before I open my arms and she gives me a tight hug before she pulls away. "It's nice to see you again, Dave. " "You too, Lucinda. You have..." I trail off, my eyes moving down her body before I meet her gaze again. "You're looking more beautiful. " "When have I ever not?" She replies cockily and I shake my head before I turn my head from her, taking a sip of the drink. "I'll talk to you later, yeah? I need to be on my way. " "See you later. " I say with a raise of the glass and she smiles before she starts to walk away. A sigh leaves my lips as I look around the room filled with people who are here to celebrate the big day of Sincl
VINCENT. My chest falls as I stride inside the house, and shut the door behind me. "And why do you have a frown on your face?" I flinch a bit at the sudden sound and relax when I look to my side to see Heather leaning against the wall with her hands crossed to her chest and a tiny smile on her face. Her blonde hair is pulled in a messy bun, and she's in one of those transparent lace with her bra and her lace panties peeking out from beneath. "Hey, angel. " I smile at her, and she strolls to my front, locking her hands around my neck while I use my free hand around her waist. She kisses the side of my face before she pulls back and whispers, "Hey. ""How long have you been waiting there?" I ask her, referring to her little hide and seek, and she says, "Since I heard the sound of your car. What's wrong? Why did you have a frown on?""Just a stressful day at work. Things didn't exactly go as we thought they would. " I tell her and she looks down at her other hand. She grabs my suitcas
ASHLEY. "Are you nervous?" Heather chuckles as she places a hand on my shoulder and I shake my head despite my trembling hands fisted in my gown. "You do look nervous, " she says playfully. "More happy than nervous?"Lillian turns to me this time with her six-year-old daughter placed on her hip. She's dressed in a simple gown that stays fitted to her body and brings out her perfect features. The woman is still looking as beautiful as ever. "I can remember your words from years ago, Ashley. You promised you'll be more happy than nervous when your big day comes. " I did say that. I said that because I wasn't the one dressed in a heavy gown with a groom waiting to finally lay the final claim on his bride. But now that I am, it'll be a lie to say I'm not nervous. I'm fucking nervous, but that also equals happiness. This is really happening: I'm getting married to that man. After years full of ups and downs, fights and amends, learning and understanding each other better – we're gettin
SIX YEARS AND A FEW MONTHS LATER. √WASHINGTON. DC. ASHLEY. "So you're back and the first person you thought to meet is your man?" Lucy's loud whining voice echoes through my ears, and a chuckle leaves my mouth as I move the phone away a bit before glueing it back to my ear. "I remember you doing the same thing months ago, backstabber. " I remind her of her playful betrayal as I walk inside the company. A company that's managed by Vincent, Sinclair along with one other friend of theirs. It's been three years since they graduated college, and decided to pursue the world of business and exchange side by side, and I'm so fucking proud of how far those men have come, and how fast they continue to grow. When Sinclair first told me about the idea, I was shocked because I wasn't expecting him to go along that line. I would have never imagined Sinclair to go with business despi
SINCLAIR. "What are you getting her?" I ask Vincent as he looks through the set of chocolates on the top rows. He looks back at me and furrows his brows, "Isn't that obvious?" "Just chocolates?" I raise my brows and he sighs, dropping the chocolate box with other things he bought before turning back to me. "Okay, what's it? Don't fucking tell me it's nothing because I know it's fucking something. You've been acting this way since we came in. " "I don't know, man, " I tell him and sigh when he narrows his eyes at me. "I just don't know what to get Little Greene. " "I told you not to call her that name around me. " He frowns and I chuckle. "You should have gotten used to it by now. She's the little one, isn't she?" He rolls his eyes and moves to the other end, and I follow behind him closely, my eyes moving across the set of gifts on the rows but nothing comes close
ASHLEY. A smile remains on my face as I stare at mine and Sinclair's last message. ME: I'm not sure I'll be able to make it. Lectures are hard on me these days. I'm so sorry, babe, you know how much I wish I could be there truly. SINCLAIR: I understand, Little Greene. My first wish was from you so that's alright. At the end of his message is a smiley face. Though I know he can put up with me not showing up on his day because of school, I also know he isn't okay like he claims to be. It's been two months since we last saw each other. Two months since we left Washington. Two months since that heartening night in the snow that's come to become one of my favourite moments with the man I love. Two months since I got an advance proposal from Sinclair Leovough, as weird as that sounds. "You honestly are a tease, " Lucy
