All Chapters of Bound To My Sister's Husband: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Diana Standing in front of the mirror, I adjusted the folds of my gown. The deep sapphire blue fabric shimmered under the light, and its gold-threaded hem formed beautiful patterns of leaves and vines. The neckline plunged modestly—just enough to command attention without compromising its elegance. A golden belt cinched my waist, accentuating my figure, while an attendant held up the gown's train as I moved. My crown, a circlet of diamonds, rested on my head, complementing the sapphire earrings that dangled from my ears.Asher entered behind me. His presence filled the room like sunlight piercing through shadows. Our eyes met through the reflection in the mirror, and his lips curled into a tender and possessive smile. Stepping closer, his arms wrapped around me, warm and reassuring. As he pulled me close, his breath brushed against my ear. “You’re beautiful,” he whispered intimately.His hand settled on my stomach. The touch sent a warm shiver through me. Our gazes locked in the mi

Diana Jaden's panicked shout cut through the quiet afternoon like a knife. My heart sank as I dropped the basket of clean laundry and rushed toward the sound. My mind raced, imagining the worst, as I found him sprawled on the ground near the garden wall. His face was scrunched up in pain, and his hands clutched his knee, now grazed and bleeding."Jaden!" I exclaimed, kneeling beside him. "What did I tell you about climbing this surface? I warned you, didn't I?"His lips quivered, but he managed to pout. "I thought I was strong enough, Mommy."I sighed, scooping him into my arms despite his protests that he could walk. "Strength isn’t just about climbing walls or being reckless, young man. It's also about listening and staying safe."I carried him back inside; he sniffled, tears smudging my shoulder. His childlike pride broke my heart, but I couldn’t let him get away with thinking bravery was the same as recklessness.Once inside, I set him gently on the couch. "Now, let's take a look

Asher The day began as usual. I decided to invite Eddie to join us for lunch, but a part of him hesitated. Lila’s relationship with Eddie wasn’t what it used to be, and I wasn’t sure if she would be comfortable. Still, I figured it was worth asking.I found her in the kitchen, tying an apron around her waist. The sight of her preparing food always warmed my heart. Her hands moved deftly, cutting vegetables with a precision that was oddly satisfying to watch.I leaned against the counter and spoke. “I was thinking of inviting Eddie for lunch.”Pausing, her knife hovered mid-air. I thought she would refuse for a moment, but then she surprised me.“That’s fine. I'll make something nice.”I raised an eyebrow. “Are you sure? I mean—”She waved a hand dismissively. “It’s okay, darling. Really.”Her agreement put me at ease. “Alright, then. We’ll come after the morning court.”She nodded and got back to chopping.When Eddie and I entered the dining room after court, Lila greeted us warmly.

Diana The room grew more chaotic. Five women, including Tatiana, were seated around me. Their voices blended into one endless symphony of arguments. One was debating the food menu for the Women's Ritual, while another squabbled about the ceremonial outfits. Tatiana had to have the loudest opinion, insisting on something extravagant.I sat there, nodding absently, like a zombie in the middle of a tragedy I couldn’t escape. My head throbbed, not from any real ailment, but from the stupidity of the conversations. They argued about the shade of fabric, the size of the banquet hall, even the sequence of events. Meanwhile, I calculated how long I could last before making up an emergency to escape this misery.“Lila, are you even listening?” Tatiana’s voice pierced through the fog of my thoughts.I plastered on a smile. “Oh, yes, of course. But I think you all have this under control.”Tatiana squinted at me but turned back to the others, and I exhaled softly. Moon Goddess help me, this is

Diana To smooth things over and avoid any suspicion from Asher after skipping the women’s ritual, I would give him what he wanted most.Sex.I knew how much he’d been yearning for us to fully seal our bond, and this would keep him basking in the euphoria of finally being with his wife.I walked to Lila’s wardrobe, feeling a pang of annoyance at the variety of lingerie she owned. How many did she need? I pushed through silk and lace until my fingers brushed against a stunning red set. It was bold, designed to tease without giving away everything. The straps were thin, crisscrossing at the back, and the material flowed like a second skin. I paired it with diamond drop earrings and an anklet, giving the outfit a sensual elegance. After some thought, I added a black robe that tied loosely at the waist, just enough to hint at what lay beneath.Satisfied, I stood before the mirror, adjusting the straps and letting my hair fall in loose waves over my shoulders. I dabbed on a nude lip color
