Amber's P.O.V We all exit the car and make our way into the house. The feeling of relief and comfort washes over me just as I step into the living room. It was currently 3:00 am so I assume Jo and everyone will leave tomorrow, along with his family. I wish everyone a good night before trudging up to my room, having Jo, Nina, and Mia follow. I mentally roll my eyes seeing as though we just got home and I want to lay in my bed...alone. But, I was too tired to bitch about it so I just decide to brush it off. "Um, I'm going to sleep in my bed but one of you can sleep on the other side. Or if you want, you guys could make a pallet." I suggest. "Yeah okay, I call the bedside." Jo says as she lays her body down and instantly drifts herself off to sleep. I desperately wanted to do the same but I knew I couldn't, I had to help everyone find their sleeping arrangements. "Sooooooo, pallets?" I ask as
Amber's P.O.V "So you approve? You're letting me and Jack continue what we have?" I ask, somewhat still in shock "If that's what you two want. You can't distance yourself, from the one you love." Dave says as he picks up a bottle of water before placing it between his lips, taking two large swigs. "So, are you going to stay?" My mother asks, looking at David with desperation and hope filled in her eyes. "No, I already proposed." He says with no trace of sympathy or emotion. Wow?How heartless can you be?Propose to another woman immediately after divorcing your wife?!He's acting just like how Jack used to...a heartless asshole. Now I see where he gets it from. "So you're just going to marry that woman over my mom? Andrea sleeps around with almost everyone, how do you expect her mother to be any different? Where do you think she gets it from?" I ask trying to defend my mother seeing
1 year later*Amber is graduating high school and Jack has already been in college for a year. * - "Jack, oh my god this campus is so beautiful! If I get in, we could be going to the same school, same college parties, we might even be roommates." I say as I stare at the building in awe. "I'd like that." He whispers as his lips connect to my neck. "Hey, there's this party at the frat house tonight, you should come." He says, causing me to roll my eyes. "Jack…you know I don't do that shit anymore." I say as we begin walking back to his dorm room. "Come on, you’re at UCLA. You have to experience at least one party babe." He pushes as we continue walking. I groan out in annoyance before finally giving in and agreeing on going. "How am I supposed to dress? Like average? Sexy? Or the type of shit that I used to wear to parties?" I ask as we start walking up t
*Welcome to Exploit, book 2 of the step brother series! You have now entered into the sequel, where things will start to take a dramatic twist. This portion is a bit of a slow burner so please, buckle up your seatbelt and please stay along for the ride. For my twisted readers… I promise it’ll be worth it.*~ Trigger Warning~This portion of the book is for mature audiences only. This book is about an abusive relationship. Mentally, and physically. I really wanted to make the reader feel as though they are Amber and experience this with her while being able to see all sides of things. This story will increase and decrease in intensity in some parts, so please read with caution, especially near the end.My hope is to really open the mind of the reader, and take them down a very dark path. That's my goal here, so again please proceed with caution; mature audiences only. Also, I really do not want you guys to think I am romanticizing abuse in any way shape, or form at all. I am only wri
Amber's P.O.V I can't believe he's really making me go and change right now. How fucking embarrassing is that?! The first thing he says to me is that I need to change. What about "hey baby how was your day" or "I'm glad you made it here safe". no, I didn't get any of that. More anger begins to fill my being as I step onto the elevator and press the 3rd floor. I sit there soaking in my own irritation awaiting for the doors to reopen. My mind starts to become clouded with different thoughts, as I sat on the elevator in silence. The doors soon reopened, revealing the entrance to level 3 before having me step out and begin my journey back to my room. What did he mean by "I don't want a repeat of high school" What was that meant to imply? What was he really trying to say with that statement? I shake my intruding thoughts from my head as I reach my dorm, seeing as the door was creaked open. My eyebrows furrow together in confusion as I look over at my new hom
Ambers P.O.V My eyes fixated on her being as I let out an amused laugh. "Yeah, good luck with that." I stated. As I spoke those words Violet looked as if this was a challenge for her in which she was determined to conquer, causing me to chuckle. My eyes began to wonder around the area in which I was in. I immediately spot Jack, seeing him pull out his already prerolled blunt before bringing it to his lips and lighting the end. Yeah, That's where I'm going. "So, tell me about the situation with you and Jack. I've heard his version a hunred times but now I want to hear yours." Violet spoke up before I could. I immediately broke eye contact with her and instead fixated my eyes on the bottle sitting in front of me. This is so incredibly uncomfortable, I really don't want to talk about my private life to people I literally just met. It's even more unsettling that they already know about it. "Ummm, it's not
Amber's P.O.V I stare up at Jack silently with a blank expression on my face, awaiting for him to say something. "So, you walked all the way here by yourself? You just somehow remembered your way around town? " Jack spoke up with anger still clear in his expression. "Yeah, that's pretty much how it went." I reply, making sure to strip my voice of all emotions "Give me your phone." He states, placing his hand in front of me in order to retrieve the device I look up at him with irritation clear in my eyes before handing him my phone. He snatches it out of my hand before unlocking it and going through all of my private information. What the fuck does he really think he's going to find? After watching Jack navigate his way through my phone for approximately two minutes, he then hands me my phone before speaking. "Get up, let's go." He stated dryly. My eyebrow
Amber's P.O.V I make my way downstairs to Jack's car before opening the passenger's door and hopping in. "Hey, baby." I spoke as I fastened myself in my seatbelt "Hey" he replied as he began to drive away from my dorm and off the campus "How'd you sleep last night?" I questioned in attempt to make some type of conversation. The lingering tension between us was extremely awkward as I could tell he was still upset about last night. "After that shit you decided to pull last night, I barely slept at all honestly. I've just been up all night thinking" he spoke as he clenched his jaw while focusing his eyes on the road in front of him. "What were you thinking about?" I questioned out of curiosity "Just a lot of shit to be honest." He blandly stated. This is what Gianna means by we need to work on our communication. If we can just talk to each other abou
