All Chapters of BROTHER'S HOT BEST FRIEND IS MY MATE: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Scarlett's Point of ViewI stomped off, leaving Sienna and Damien behind. Forgive him? Not yet. Maybe never. Even if someone said sorry, the hurt they caused was still there. I kept hearing Damien's voice and hearing him beg for a second chance. But those memories—his mean laugh and how he humiliated me— it felt like a second skin. Could people really change? Could he change? As I walked away, my heart and mind were at war in silence. Each step felt heavier than the last.Lost in my thoughts, I ran into someone as I was walking in rage. Someone. My breath hitched as I took a step back and said, "Sorry,".The man and his friends didn't brush it off, though. Instead, they came closer, and their eyes locked on mine. I got a chill up my spine. My legs felt like they were frozen when I tried to move away.One of them sneered, his eyes staying where they shouldn't during the whole thing. On my breast. "Hey sweetheart, why don't you stay the night with us?"Fear rushed through me and mad

Scarlet POV"Please, Alex, don't do this," I begged as I looked at the leather straps that were connected to the bedposts. My voice was shaking. The thought of being tied down hurt my wrists, but what scared me more was the fire in Alex's eyes—a wild, unquenchable storm I had never seen before. I couldn't find the Alex I knew—the one who held me so carefully.It wasn't an answer. It was worse for me to hear him than to hear him shout. As he grabbed my wrists, his hold was strong but not painful. My heart was racing. I got a chill when the cold cuffs hit my wrists and held me in place. The click was like a hammer hitting a rock, and it made my breath catch."You let that bastard touch you." He leaned close to me and his low growl shook the air. His hot breath was against my ear. "You let him kiss you."The accusation cut me like a knife. My eyes filled with tears as shame and fear mixed. "It wasn't my choice, Alex," I sobbed, my voice breaking. I was grabbed by Damian.He took a quick

SCARLETT’S POVI don't know how long I stood there and looked at Sienna, but it seemed like forever. Every word she spoke hit me like a slap in the face, and I got more and more angry as time went on. As I tried to stay calm, my hands curled into fists at my sides. It was getting harder as the minute went on.“Are you really so shameless?” I shot back in anger. I could feel Sienna's anger coming from her, like she was about to pounce on me at any moment. Her eyes were red with rage. She looked at me with a glare that said it all: her arms crossed over her chest."Oh, please stop your shit. And tell me what's going on between you and Alex?" She snapped. Her voice was full of irritation. "Why did he leave with you? Are you playing a new game?"The bile was rising in my throat. What a jerk she was. I was the one who set me up in the most embarrassing way, but she was the one who thought I needed to explain myself. It wasn't funny.I tried to stay cool by taking a deep breath, but all I

Scarlett’s pov What Sienna had said kept going through my mind. It broke my heart that Sienna had been with Alex. Her messed up hair, smudge lipstick, braless, these things only made me doubt about their relationship was more than I knew. I don't know how to explain it. I had to ask him, but the thought of it made my blood boil.I wanted to ignore it and act like it didn't hurt. It did, though. It felt like my heart was slowly being torn apart all the way through. Alex was meant to be. Even when things were hard, I had always thought that. But after hearing that and seeing how my sister looked at me when she told me, I couldn't get rid of the doubt and jealousy that was eating away at me.Was Sienna telling me truth?"Was he two timing with me?" I said something to myself. I didn't want to ask him, though. Not yet. I wasn't when I was so mad.The day went on and on, and I didn't want to go see him at work. I told myself I didn't need to see him, but I really did. I really wanted to t

Scarlet’s POVAs I ran up the stairs to my house, my heart was beating fast. Alex was right behind me. Just having him there was a small relief in the middle of my fear. One thing I wasn't used to hearing from my brother was a worried tone in his voice over the phone. It made my nerves tense.I stopped moving when I opened the front door. The living room looked like something else. The cushions were cut open, and the stuffing came out like guts. The coffee table fell over, and glass pieces were all over the floor. Some frames were completely broken, and pictures were hung on the walls upside down."Where the hell did this happen?" Alex said something and stepped in front of me.Ryan, my brother, came out of the kitchen with a pale face. He didn't look like he had slept in days. His shirt was rumpled and his hair was a mess. He would never normally let himself look so messy."What's going on, Ryan?" I begged, and my voice shook.He was clearly upset as he ran his hand through his hair.
