*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
Amber's P.O.V "You look so fucking sexy with me dripping out of you like that." Jack moaned as he bit his lip while looking down at the mess he just created in awe. I look up at him through my long lashes before bringing my left hand down to my heat. I swirl my fingers in the sticky substance, collecting as much as I can before bringing my fingers to my mouth and slowly sucking the juices off- making sure to never break eye contact with him. "Thank you." I stated before slowly hopping off of the counter top in which I was sitting on. "Why did you just do that? Are you trying to get yourself fucked again?" Jack's deep voice asked as he looked down at me with temptation. "No, I just wanted to savor the moment." I shrugged as I began to put back on my black sweatpants. "Keep playing games with me and see where that gets you." Jack warned as he fixed himself in his clothing before relighting the backwood an
Amber's P.O.V We arrive at my dorm before parking the car and making our way upstairs to the 3rd floor. I immediately pull out my keys, unlocking the door to grant us access to my space. As we walk into the room, I notice Gianna sitting on her bed with her eyes focused down on her phone screen with music playing through her speakers. "Hey, Gianna!" I greeted as we walked further into the room. Gianna's eyes diverged from her phone screen before landing on the two of us. Her eyebrows furrowed together in confusion as she looked up at us before speaking "Hey? You're back already? I feel like you just left." She spoke out "Yeah me and Jack are about to go tour campus and then get some lunch, so I wanted to come change into some real clothes." I paused before speaking again. "Oh yeah. This is jack by the way." I said introducing her to him before making my way over to my closet. "Nice to meet you, I
‘I’m a girl. I should do as I like.’Amber's P.O.V Gianna applies one last layer of her dark lip stainer before turning around on her chair to face me. "Okay! I finally finished, are you ready to go?" She questioned as she grabbed her lip stainer, eyeliner and phone before stuffing it into her black bag. "Yeah!" I agreed as I made my way over to her. We make our way out of our dorm and down the hall to the first floor, before reaching the outside. We begin our journey down the hill, toward the main campus, conversing with one another in the process. "Okay, so this is the furthest I got with Jack, So from here I'm not sure where we should go." I explained as we sat in the same field I just abandoned moments ago. "Oh wow, look at all these statues. It says here we're in Murphy's Sculpture Garden. How beautiful!" Gianna spoke out as she read the sign sitting in fron
Jack’s P.O.V Smoke flies throughout the dark and rotted room as we ascend from the safe, having our vision be momentarily blinded. I quickly turn off my flashlight before switching on the laser sight to my gun as we cautiously go to make our escape. As we maneuver our way throughout the burnt structure the loud sound of bullets flying seems to cease, allowing the space to grow eerily silent. The addictive feeling of adrenaline rushing through my bloodstream sends my senses into a heightened state as Zac and I continue to sweep each space in which we walk into. “Rocco, copi?” Zac whispers into the radio attached to his vest as we bring ourselves into a secluded area of the barely standing estate.(Rocco, do you copy?) Static fills the space, having us both curse silently as Rocco was our emergency escape plan. Zac releases a frustrated breath of air as he turns his radio off once again, having him go to raise his gun in the process. As Zac
Jack's P.O.V "I swear I'm going to slit Luca's fucking throat if there's nothing here." Zac spits, as he shuffles in his seat, seemingly tense. I look outside my passengers side window at the dark plot of land, seeing the semi burnt and demolished property. Zac cracks his neck, trying to cope with all of the adrenaline pumping through his bloodstream as he continues to eye down the abandoned estate. "Did he ever say who sent him to collect information?" I question out. Before Zac can answer he is interrupted by the sound of his radio going off, allowing us to hear the static voice of his family's men on the other side. "Clear." Zac immediately takes action, having him quickly jump out of the car with angry footsteps as I go to reload my gun. I quickly hop out of the SUV before going to stand beside Zac, mimicking his pace. "He gave me a fake name. I looked into them, they don't ex
Gianna's P.O.V I sit in complete boredom as I stare down at the professor as she continues her long summoner about physics, no longer finding interest in her words. My eyes slowly find their way over to the empty seat beside me, having a sense of sadness fill my being as I look over at where Amber once used to sit. I feel like such a failure. The sound of the professor dismissing the class snaps me out of my thoughts, having me quickly go to collect my belongings before exiting the classroom. As I make my way through the crowded halls I decide to pull out my phone in order to text Heidi. Queen Heidi👑🥰To Queen Heidi👑🥰: Hey babes! Can I come over? I need to talk to you. Not delivered Frustration immediately wells its way into my chest as I watch my text fail to send due to its lack of service. What the fuck?!!! Why are all of my texts and calls still not going throu
Amber's P.O.V My eyes slowly open to reveal the same godforsaken cell that I've been kept in for what feels like weeks now. It's always the same. Wake up, cry, eat, sleep, repeat.It never changes. A part of me is grateful that I've been placed here because I no longer have to deal with the nonsense of the guards or any of these psychopathic people. But the other part of me is petrified as I know that I'm just here to await my inevitable demise. Slowly, I sit myself up against the hard mattress, feeling my entire body ache as I go to rub my stomach that was now holding my unborn child. A small tear begins to form as I continue to think about all of the terrible outcomes that will take place once I give birth. "I'm so sorry I can't protect you." I whisper to myself, hoping that my child would miraculously be able to hear me. "Mommy loves you very much. Don't ever forget that." I cry, feeling myself become overtaken with e
Giannas P.O.VThe bright sunlight spills into our hotel suite, causing me to slowly awaken. My eyes flutter open, having me look across the room to see that the other queen sized bed was empty and no longer being occupied by Jovana's sleeping form. I slowly rise from my spot on the bed before bringing myself into the living room area of this huge suite. As I walk over to the sofa, I notice Jovana already seated as she scrolls through different shows to watch on the huge flat screen tv. "Goodmorning." I greet as I sit myself down on the opposite end of the couch. "Finally, you're awake!" She says as she turns the tv off, now giving up on what to watch. "I was thinking that maybe we should visit that beach club that our Uber driver from yesterday was talking about. I looked up the empress hotel and their parties look out of this world." She says somewhat excitedly. I nod my head at her words having me look down at m
VDA: These are not real nightclubs in Las Vegas.Gianna's P.O.V "Please fasten your seatbelts. We will begin our descend shortly and welcome to fabulous Las Vegas." The flight attendant says over the loud intercom. A small wave of excitement begins to overtake me as I secure myself within my designated seat.I'm going to find you Amber.No matter what it takes. "Fucking finally! I feel like we've been on this plane forever now!" Heidi whines, causing me to roll my eyes at her dramatics. "It's only been an hour." Jovana states before I have the opportunity to do so myself. "An hour too long. I'd much rather have flown first class." Heidi continues to complain as the plane begins to slowly lose its altitude. "Heidi, we already went over this. If we fly first class then we-" I start to begin before being cut off. "Then we risk being caught by my fath
A Few Hours Later Amber's P.O.V I sit on the hard bed springs for what felt like hours, having hot tears burn my cheeks as I continue to stare blankly at the other side of the room. Why am I here? How long will they keep me here? Why would Jack let this happen to me? Why is this happening to me? Does he actually enjoy having me here? Will Toro actually help me get out of this place? Will I ever get my freedom back? If I never would've went to that party , would this still be happening to me? If I would've listened to Jovana and stayed home that night, would I still be here? Would everything be different if I never would've went to the police? Would I still be here if I never would've missed Jack ? I hate myself. How did I end up in this situation? How will I get out of this situation? I bring my hands up to my forehead, feeling the heavy chains on my wrist as I attempt to massage out the feverish headache in which I was feeling. Harsh hiccups rack my
Amber's P.O.V An involuntary yelp escapes me as Toro's rough hands wrap around my arm. He pulls my body to his side rather aggressively before bringing me towards the only door in this cursed room. My body continues to tremble as he leads me down the narrow halls; having more tears blur my vision as thoughts about what I just witnessed continue to cloud my mind. "Please just let me go! I-I p-promise I don't know a-anything! I told Zac everything I know! Please... you have to b-believe me." I say, begging with the man for dear life as he continues to take me to the unknown. Toro says nothing in response, not even sparing me a single glance as he continue to drag me down the hall towards the elevator in which I originally came from. Uncontrollable sobs continue to escape me as images of Violets blood spilling into the carpet continue to haunt me.I can't believe she's dead. I can't believe Zac just killed her right in front of me
Gianna's P.O.V It's been nearly two months since ambers disappearance and no one seems to know anything. The police have been absolutely no fucking help in this and Xion claims to not have any information that could possibly help me find her. I just don't understand how this could've happened. I've searched the entire internet for information on Zac and his family but I can never find anything useful.The internet makes it seem as if his family are charitable saints that own legitimate businesses and donate to children's hospitals. It's all bullshit! A loud groan escapes my lips as I slam my computer shut in frustration. I push my body off of my bed's frame before going over to my purse and quickly retrieving my dab pen. I inhale a deep breath of smoke before exhaling and releasing all of the built up tension within me. As I stand in the corner of the space my eyes wander over to ambers old side of the room, making me think back to the conversation
