All Chapters of Caged with Four Step Brothers : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

The villa felt eerily quiet after last night’s confusion emotions. Mia sat on her bed, staring at the sunlight filtering through the curtains. Her heart was still racing from the overwhelming feelings she had experienced with her stepbrothers. Each one of them had stirred something inside her, something she wasn’t ready to face.Her mother’s happiness depended on her keeping things normal. I can’t ruin this for her, Mia thought, biting her bottom lip. She sighed and ran her fingers through her hair. She needed space, a way to clear her mind and distance herself from the brothers.The sound of muffled voices outside her room caught her attention. Peeking out, she saw Victor talking to Aiden, Liam, and Zander. “The rival packs are moving faster than we thought,” Victor said, his tone serious. “We need to handle this now.”“We can’t leave her alone,” Aiden protested, glancing toward her closed door.“She’ll be fine,” Victor said firmly. “We’ll be back before she even notices.”Mia’s hear

Mia stood in the middle of the living room, her heart pounding. Aiden, Liam, Zander, and Matthew surrounded her, their expressions a mixture of concern and frustration. She had expected them to be angry, but the intensity of their emotions left her speechless. The air between them felt thick, every second stretching painfully.“Mia,” Aiden finally spoke, his voice firm but calm, “why did you leave without telling us?”“I needed space,” Mia replied, trying to steady her voice. “I needed time to think.”“Think about what?” Zander demanded, stepping closer. His tone was sharper, more direct, and his piercing gaze made her feel exposed.Liam placed a hand on Zander’s shoulder, as if to calm him. “Mia, we’re not trying to control you. We just want to understand why you felt the need to run away.”Mia looked down, unable to meet their eyes. How could she explain the storm of emotions inside her? She couldn’t tell them about the way her heart raced whenever they were near, or how their touch

David sat on the wooden bench, his hands clasped tightly as he stared at the empty pathway in front of him. The soft rustling of leaves in the gentle breeze filled the air, but his heart was pounding too loudly to let him focus on the serene surroundings. She was coming. Mia. The girl who had been his quiet muse for years, the one who had unknowingly stolen his heart the moment he laid eyes on her back in university.The confession he had made to her earlier had been a mix of courage and desperation. Seeing her after so long, he couldn’t hold it back anymore. And now, she had agreed to meet him here, alone. He told himself it meant something that she cared enough to hear him out.When he finally spotted her approaching, David’s breath caught in his throat. Mia always had this effortless glow about her. She wore a simple dress, her hair flowing loosely, and yet she looked like she belonged to another world. But there was something in her cautious steps, the way she glanced around as th

Mia stepped into the spacious living room, the soft glow of the evening light filtering through the tall windows. Her heart thumped loudly as she glanced around, only to find Zander lounging on the couch, his dark eyes fixed on her. Aiden was leaning against the doorway, his arms crossed, a faint smirk playing on his lips.“Mia,” Zander greeted, his voice low and smooth. The way he said her name sent a shiver down her spine.She swallowed hard, trying to maintain her composure. "Zander. Aiden. I thought you’d be busy."Zander’s smile deepened, and he patted the space on the couch beside him. "Come sit with us. We’ve been waiting for you."Mia hesitated. There was something in his gaze, something intense and almost predatory. She glanced at Aiden, who hadn’t taken his eyes off her since she walked in.“Don’t make him ask twice,” Aiden said, his tone teasing but firm.She walked slowly toward the couch, feeling the heat of their stares on her. Her body betrayed her, every nerve ending t

Mia woke up in the middle of the night, gasping for air. The dream was still vivid in her mind, her father’s face, his kind yet stern voice. He had looked at her with both love and sadness, saying, “You must do what’s right, Mia. Remember who you are.” His words lingered in her heart, heavy like a stone. She sat on the edge of her bed, staring into the darkness, her chest tight with guilt and confusion.She couldn’t keep living like this feeling torn between what her heart wanted and what her conscience screamed was wrong. Her feelings for her stepbrothers weren’t something she had planned or wanted, yet they consumed her, leaving her feeling lost. And then there was her mother, who had finally found happiness with Victor. Could Mia risk destroying that happiness?“I need to leave,” Mia whispered to herself, the words barely audible. Her voice cracked as tears slid down her cheeks. She wiped them quickly, determined to hold herself together. Grabbing a small bag, she started packing
