All Chapters of My Heartless Stepbrother : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

MEGHANI leaned into his hand, then jolted back when I realized what I was doing. Again, I was acting like a lovesick puppy just because he was touching me. No, I couldn't let him sway me this much. I smacked his hand off my face."I can do better? And how would you know? Since when are you an expert on my relationships? I have tolerated everything you've said and done so far, but you are going too far. You can't treat Chase like this. You don't even know him!" I said. It was time I defended Chase. Adrian wasn't even giving him a fair chance."What would you like me to do, Maggie? Take him on a fishing trip and spend quality time?" Adrian scoffed.Always jumping to the extreme, this one."No. I am not asking you to be his buddy. But you could at least try to get to know him. For my sake. You still care about me, don't you?" I looked at him expectantly. No matter how hard he tries to push me away, I won't back down.Adrian sighed. "Yeah, look, I do care about you. I am willing to toler

ADRIAN So this is really happening. I am going to now have to compete against Maggie's wimpy boyfriend? Great... so now I have to make sure he does not win. It's not that I was worried or anything. I've been playing beach volleyball since I was a child, so this rich asshole doesn't stand a chance so even if he had played before, he didn't have years of practice like I did. Chase didn't seem very sporty either. I couldn't underestimate him, though. I wouldn't make an arrogant mistake like that, so I decided to take this game seriously. It started out as a friendly game. Maggie played a few rounds and decided to sit out for the rest of the game. But since I won against Chase twice, he kept wanting a re-match. "Don't be a sore loser, Chase. You lost, so just go home," I barked after a while. I was all sweaty and irritable. "Just one more game," Chase insisted. "Chase, come on. I want to go back home already," Maggie complained from the sideline. "Yeah, come get your man, Maggie.

ADRIAN"Why do you care so much about what Chase had to say to me?" Tiffany asked.I'd been ignoring her since Chase slunk off; he'd left immediately after Luke took Maggie back to our parents' house. We were cleaning up some from the party. Most people didn't want to stick around after Luke exited, which said a lot about how great Luke was as a host."I don't," I snapped, "I made it all up because I'm jealous, right? Possessive or some shit?"Tiffany snapped right back at me, "Don't be an asshole, Adrian. It's not like it's a big deal he hit on me. I never would have taken him up on any offer he had to make."I looked over at her, where she was stacking shot glasses onto a tray. Her face was flushed, and she did look pretty pissed. I could almost believe I'd misinterpreted what Chase had said to her, only I knew I hadn't.Tiffany smiled when she saw me looking, putting the tray on a side table to come over and touch my arm. She said, "I don't want him. I want you. I think I've made t

MEGHANHad that really just happened? I put my hands to my face to try to cool my cheeks. The burning was for sure real. I wasn't imagining how hot my cheeks were or how hot I was all over. My body felt too hot with my skin being too tight and I wondered if maybe that was a little like how Adrian felt right now. "Stop it! Stop thinking about it," I told myself. Guys were always trying new ways to get it in. Adrian was playing with me. He was either trying to convince me to have sex with him or just trying to embarrass me to get back at me for---everything.'Everything' was a lot; I wanted to know if it would ever go away or if it would be there between the two of us for the rest of our lives. I didn't want running away to Boston to be the final mistake I got to make with Adrian. The longer I was home, the more I realized I wanted to try things again with him even if he was a jerk. Adrian was sort of like MY jerk so I was willing to deal with his moodiness, his sarcasm, his wise

MEGHANTen points for Adrian and zero points for me.He made me feel humiliated and helpless once again, and this time I paved the way for him. I practically threw myself at his mercy and all because he talked dirty to me over the phone.Why did I do it?Was I really desperate for his attention that much?I sighed as I looked at my phone after Adrian hung up on me abruptly. I sort of saw it coming, but it still hurt when he dismissed me like that.I closed my eyes and lay back as my body still felt the aftershock of my orgasm. I didn't care if he did that to get back at me because what I felt for him was genuine.I shouldn't feel ashamed of my feelings. Why should I? This wasn't the first time he called me a pervert and a slut. If you think it would drive me away, he's wrong. I can handle him.Adrian can hate me all he wants, but I decided I was not giving up on him.I looked back at my phone and sighed. Six missed calls from Chase. He had been calling me nonstop, even though I told h
