Stealing My Sister's Fiancee XL : Blood on the Floor, Heat on My Skin
The ticking of a clock echoed in the dark room. It was slow initially, then faster and louder as if counting down to something dreadful. I stood in the middle of a long, unfamiliar hallway—its walls dull gray, its floor made of old wooden planks that creaked beneath my steps. The dim light from a flickering chandelier illuminated the path ahead, casting long shadows that seemed to move at the edge of my vision. I didn’t know why I was here. I didn’t know where I was supposed to go. But my feet kept moving forward, even though something inside me screamed to turn back and run. Then I saw it. A drop of blood. Dripping from the ceiling. Landing on the back of my hand. I swallowed hard and slowly lifted my face. Someone was there. Hanging from the ceiling. I held my breath. Dylan. His eyes were empty, his lips parted like trying to say something, but no sound came out. Blood dripped from the gaping wound on his neck, falling slowly, forming a crimson pool on the wooden floor

I don’t know who moved first. All I know is that one second, we were staring at each other in silence, and the next, his lips were pressing against mine again.This time, there was no gentleness. No pause. No space to think.Aaric kissed me in a way that was completely demanding and dominating, taking everything he could from me. His lips moved over mine with a rhythm that made me lose my balance.His hand gripped my neck tighter than before, leaving me no choice but to respond. I let out a quiet moan between our kisses, and it only made him wilder.My hands, which had only been gripping his sweater, slid up his shoulders, pulling him closer. I could feel the tension in his muscles beneath my fingers, the heat of his body seeping through the fabric between us.Aaric deepened the kiss. His lips parted slightly, his tongue sweeping over my lower lip before slipping inside, demanding access that I gave him without hesitation.Heat. Everything felt like heat.His tongue met mine, playing

The morning was still too quiet when I opened my eyes. The air in the room felt warm, mingled with the scent of wood, sea salt, and something deeper—more familiar. Aaric. I didn't need to turn around to know he was still there. His strong arm wrapped tightly around my waist, his warm body pressed against my back, and his steady breath brushed against my nape in an almost hypnotic rhythm. I bit my lip, suppressing the anxiety that began to well up in my chest. This shouldn't have happened. I took a deep breath, letting my eyes drift to the large glass window that faced the sea. The sun was still halfway up the horizon, casting a golden shimmer that danced slowly on the calm waves. The beach in the morning always gave me a sense of peace. Or at least, it usually did. But not this morning. This morning, I woke up naked, trapped in the embrace of a man who shouldn't be here. A man I once loved. A man who was now not just dangerous—but also... Mellan's fiancé. My chest grew

I scrubbed my face harder than I should have, as if I could wipe away something more than just the remnants of makeup on my skin. But no matter how many cotton pads I used, no matter how cold the micellar water felt against my skin, the guilt still clung to my chest—thick, sticky, disgusting.I tossed the last cotton pad into the trash with unnecessary force and let out a long sigh.Behind me, Amira—my makeup artist—observed with narrowed eyes before crossing her arms. “You just looked at yourself in the mirror like you wanted to punch your own reflection.”I turned to her, forcing a small smile. “Just tired.”Amira clicked her tongue. “You always say that.”I didn’t respond. I knew that if I said anything more, my voice would sound too fragile for someone who had just finished a major photoshoot and received praise from the entire crew.I pressed my temples, trying to push away the lingering headache creeping beneath my skull.“I’m done here, right?” I finally asked, my voice soundin

The restaurant is located on the beach, with dimly lit lamps reflecting softly off the sea's surface. The night air carried the salty scent of the ocean, mingling with the fragrant spices of the dishes served on the white linen-covered tables.I sat back in my chair, still trying to digest how we had gotten to this place. I knew Aaric never half-assed anything, but this restaurant—with its strict guest list, waiters who moved almost silently, and exclusive, suffocating atmosphere—was completely beyond my expectations.And even more astonishingly, when we walked in, no one stopped us. No one asked for a reservation. No one dared to speak before Aaric stepped through the door.Instead, the restaurant manager himself greeted us, opening the way with a slight bow of the head as if Aaric were someone more influential than the place's owner.I don't know if that made me more impressed... or more horrified.As we arrived at the table, I prepared to pull out my own chair, but Aaric had alread

I stood in Aaric’s living room, my heart racing as I looked at the evidence I found in my hands.A photograph. Caitlyn. She grinned, her arms wrapped around Aaric's neck. Aaric's face looked relaxed, almost smiling."What is this?" I asked, my voice flat. I tossed the photo onto the table in front of him.He looked up from his phone, his brow furrowed. "It's just Caitlyn. It's nothing.""Nothing?" I chuckled, a sound that almost resembled a mockery. I raised my hand, revealing another object I had just found in his bathroom trash can. A used condom. "And this? Also, nothing?"He stood up slowly, his eyes alternately staring at the photo and the condom. "Maya, are you serious? You're rummaging through my trash now?""I don't need to search if you don't keep this stuff like someone who wants to get caught!" I crossed my arms, my body burning with the emotions I had been holding in."Look, that picture isn't what it looks like," he said, looking at me directly. "Caitlyn pulled me in for

PresentMy breath caught in my throat, like I had just drowned, and finally reached the surface. The yellow light from the bed lamp slapped me back into reality. My spacious room—the messy gray sheets, the AC running, and the cold air piercing my sweat-soaked skin.I hugged my chest, trying to soothe the rumbling that felt like it was hollowing out my ribs.That dream again. The same dream. That night, Dylan had blood on his neck.I covered my face with both hands, but that didn't erase it. The images still lingered in my mind's eye. Five years had passed, and this dream still crushed me every night, bringing me back to when everything stopped.Where my heart broke. Where I lost My Brother.I woke up fully, cold sweat beading on my neck and back.Jumping out of bed, I dragged my body to the kitchen. The light above the dining table burns dimly, creating long shadows on the walls of my deserted apartment. I opened the refrigerator, grabbed a bottle of cold water, and poured it into a g

The Los Angeles twilight sky turns dark as our car pulls up in front of an elite beachside club. Blue neon lights flickering in the shape of Ecliptica reflected in the puddles on the sidewalk.Heavy bass echoed before the car door opened, welcoming us to another world of noise and escapism.Megan grasped my arm gently as I got out of the car. "Are you sure this is a good idea?" I could catch the concern in her tone.I didn't answer. I pulled my black coat tighter around my body before walking to the entrance. Ashley followed behind since she looked at me worriedly while hugging her small bag.A doorman in a black suit gave us one look and recognized Megan. He opened the rope without saying anything, letting us inside. Once through the heavy doors, it was like we had entered another dimension—deafening music, flashing strobe lights, and a crowd dancing in the dark like living shadows. The smell of cocktails and expensive perfume mingled in the air.I took off my coat and handed it to A

"Seriously, I don't understand how you can do a scene like that without losing your mind," Ashley said she he picked up a bottle of water and handed it to me.I accepted it wearily, unscrewed the cap, and gulped it down immediately. After that long scene, my throat felt dry."I'm just separating myself from reality," I mumbled.Ashley raised one eyebrow. "Seperating?"I sighed, trying to find the right words. "When I'm on camera, I'm not Maya. I'm the character I'm playing. I feel what she feels. It's the only way I can do it well."Ashley gave me a long look before nodding. "That explains why I almost cried watching your acting."I chuckled, though my shoulders felt tense. "Don't cry on set, Ash. It'll ruin your makeup.""Okay." She snorted as she grabbed a sandwich from the catering table. "I'll cry after we get the Oscar."I shook my head, grabbed a sandwich, and walked towards the break area. Some crew members were still busy talking to each other, but I could feel the occasional

The air around me changed as soon as I entered the studio lobby. There was the usual bustle, the crew passing by, the sounds of conversation ringing out in the corners of the room, and the scent of coffee from the small outlet in the corner mixing the air with its distinctive fragrance.But among all that, there was something I couldn't ignore.I could feel the gaze that followed my steps, not from the people here or the coworkers who already knew me but from figures that might not be visible.The people Aaric had put in place.My heart beats faster, not from fear but the new realization pressing into my chest. I wasn't just an actress at work today. I'm someone who must be watched.Someone who was in danger.I sighed and resumed my steps. I can't let this affect me. Not today.By the time I reached the locker room, Megan was waiting for me with her arms crossed."Are you okay?" she asked, her eyes sweeping over my face like she’s searching for signs of something wrong.I nodded, tryi
Stealing My Sister's Fiancee XXXVII : Stay Where I Can See You
My fingers gripped Aaric's sweater tightly, my body still feeling limp even as I tried to control my ragged breathing.Horror crept along my spine, the air was getting thinner.Aaric remained silent.His firm hand was still on my back, holding me up. But I could feel his body stiffening, his jaw hardening as he reread the writing on the paper.Then, without warning, he crumpled the paper in his hands and threw it into the fireplace in the corner of the room. The flames immediately devoured the paper, leaving black ash flying.I was still trapped in my fear when Aaric turned around, picked up the box containing the dead bird, and carried it outside.I stared at him with my breath still in my throat. "What are you doing?" I whispered.Aaric didn't answer. He opened the back door and tossed the box into a large trash can, closing it with a loud bang that made me flinch.When he came back inside, his face was full of eerie calm."Who knew you lived here?" he asked, his voice deep, sharp.
Stealing My Sister's Fiancee XXXVI : Wings Clipped, Heart Beating
I lay still, sinking into the softness of the mattress, eyes still closed.But my mind wasn't really asleep. I was still caught in the whirlpool of my own thoughts. Samuel, Dylan, the blood on the floor of Dylan’s bedroom, all of it spinning in my head like a shadow that refused to fade.Then, the sound came.The sound of the door opening slowly, its hinges squeaking softly amidst the silence.I didn't move.I could sense his presence even before he stepped inside.Aaric.His steps were quiet, steady, almost silent on the wooden floor.My heart beat a little faster, but I kept my eyes closed, my breathing as flat as possible like I were asleep.The mattress sinks slightly on one side.I feel the warmth of his body so close, closer than it should be.Then, something soft touches my cheek.A caress.His rough yet warm fingers glided slowly along my face, tracing my jawline gently, almost like a caress someone would do with feeling.His breathing was slow, almost inaudible.I refrained f
