All Chapters of The Forbidden Step-Brother's Wild Desire: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

My heart was beating uncontrollably. The warmth of Andreas' body had me transfixed. Moreover, the scent of his body mixed with the cologne tickled the tip of my nose with an intoxicating sensation that made my mind lulled by it with an overwhelming sense of comfort."....nessa, Vanessa?" Andreas's voice startled me, and I raised my face to look at him.Andreas looked down at his face, which was still beautiful and mesmerizing even from below. It was truly an extraordinary beauty. He looked at me with worry on his face. "Are you okay? I called you earlier, but you didn't answer me."I gasped again, I immediately looked down then my eyes closed and my lips clenched tightly with a grimace on my face. "Yes. I'm fine." I replied. Since I hadn't heard any sound, it must have been because I was drowning in my crazy instincts.I quickly disentangled myself from Andreas, standing properly while awkwardly tucking my hair behind my ears. There was a hint of regret from me for letting go of his e

"Are you home?" Maria greeted me by coming over and hugging me.I returned the hug, although I was a little confused. I don't know what happened to Maria while we were away, but she looked so happy to see us back together.Maria released her hug from me, her warm face looking up at me as her hand gently rubbed my cheek. "I'm so happy to see you together."I involuntarily froze, raising my eyebrows as what Maria said sounded ambiguous."I knew Andreas would like you. He's always wanted a sister, and now that he has one, he'll be happy." Maria's feelings seemed genuine.I smiled awkwardly at her. It made her look so happy to see us getting along like brother and sister, but it differed from what she knew. Andreas didn't see or think of me as her sister.I felt guilty for Maria. How would Maria feel if she found out that her son had the feelings and attraction of a grown man to his stepdaughter? Would she be able to accept it? How devastated would Maria's happiness be if she found out?"

"Where did I put my hair dryer?" I walked out of the bathroom and approached my dressing table.In front of it, I pulled out the shelf that usually held the hairdryer and vice. I found what I was looking for there, then dried my hair.Earlier, a waiter called me downstairs to have breakfast with the others. But I was just about to shower, and told her that I'd come down later, after all I could explain my reasons for coming down late for breakfast."Maybe they'll eat first if I wait too long." I was sure of that, so I didn't feel the need to rush.I opened my wardrobe and started picking out the clothes I would wear today. But suddenly, my bedroom door just opened at the worst possible time.The towel I was wearing moved down as I reached out my hand to grab my clothes. At the same time, I saw Andreas open my bedroom door.I was silent for a moment, as was Andreas. When I saw his eyes drop down to my chest, I was stunned. "Andreas! What are you doing?!" I shouted quite loudly. Whether

Jaxon's PovI stared at the television screen indistinctly, my eyes blurry as my head was focused on different things.A few days ago, I met Vanessa, but Vanessa looked different from when she became my wife. Vanessa looks beautiful. She looks elegant and classy.Her face was so charming that I couldn't take my eyes off her and was stunned momentarily. Luckily, Catherine didn't notice."However, she must still have feelings for me. She used to love and obey me so much." I muttered under my breath, recalling those memories.Lately, I felt something was missing after meeting Vanessa, but I didn't know exactly what I was missing. I just felt a little empty."Jaxon!" I heard my mom's voice yelling for me, breaking my reverie. "What are you doing?"Before I could go to her, I saw Mom already standing in front of me with her appearance looking a little messy with an apron on her body. She was bent at the waist, staring at me."I was just about to come over to Mom," I argued, but she snorted

"Vanessa, how are you doing?" Dad asked in the middle of our dinner.I took my eyes off my plate and looked at my father. Our dinner was a quiet, friendly affair where we talked about simple things, like today. When he asked again about my progress with some things I had learned."So far, I haven't had any difficulties, dad," I answered with the response closest to my situation. Because to judge the results of my progress is not my part.Andreas was the one who had the freedom to judge because he was guiding me. These few days, I've been putting in a good effort. I worked on various things occasionally while checking every market branch that opened around the city.As Father had requested, I sent in the checking reports at regular intervals. As for Andreas's guidance, I deliberately asked him to send me what I needed to do via email. I reasoned that I was busy outside, and it just so happened that he was also swamped out, so we hadn't seen each other in a few days.Strangely, I felt l
