บททั้งหมดของ Craving Him, My Step-Brother : บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

IVANA'S POV I was done dressing up in less than five minutes and without wasting much time, I rushed downstairs and only slowed down when I got to the sitting room.No one must suspect me, if I had to leave the clan.Luckily, Mom was in the sitting room, watching her favourite telenovela.With a smile on my face, I joined her and started. “Mom, I'm craving some bobba tea. Can I go get one in the cafe downtown?” Her gaze drawled from the telenovela series she was watching to me. “You can't, Ivana. Have you forgotten what happened when you left the mall for the same bobba tea, last time?”I exhaled. It wasn't going to be easy.“I know, but Felix and Mark can come with me for protection. Can't I just get what I'm craving for?” I frowned, my patience already running low. “I can't go to college. Yes, I accepted that. I can't go for my therapy sessions, also, I accepted that. But now that I'm craving for bobba tea, still, I can't get it?”Mom sighed and brought her hands closer to mine, h

RUSLAN'S POV This meeting was bound to happen. I knew for sure and I just couldn't wait to see the angry look on Lorenzo’s scarred face.He touched my family and I touched his clan. It was bound to happen at some point.“Where are we heading to, Bratva?” The driver asked, dragging my attention towards him.“The devil priesthood.” I replied point-blank, returning my gaze to my phone.I have been busy lately that I barely return to the clan.With one of my strongest men in the clan, I had nothing to worry about.The driver started the car and drove off with Nicko at the owner's corner alongside the driver.Moments later, it came to an halt in front of a gigantic mansion with ‘Devil Priesthood’ boldly written at the top of the building.I alighted from the car and so did Nicko, but he didn't go in with me. He had no reason to.I entered into the building and took the elevator to the highest floor where the meeting was taken place.Standing by the door which led to the meeting, I was hea

IVANA'S POV As I made my way to Ruslan's home office, all eyes were on me, but no one dared to stop Ruslan. Despite the pity glances they all sent my way, not even Igor, the retired Bratva could save my ass this time. Pushing the door open, I stepped inside with him behind me. I stood by the door, but just a small push from him sent me rushing to the middle of the home office and the door slammed shut behind me. My heart hammered in my chest as I darted out my tongue and swiped it over my dry lips. Shit! Ive gotten my ass into trouble and now? There was no escape for me or whatsoever. With my head hung low, I focused my gaze on the floor, making it seem like the most interesting thing ever, whereas that wasn't the case. I was damn scared to look at my step-brother straight in the eyes. With my ears standing at alert, I could hear his footsteps drawing closer from behind and I could feel his gaze boring holes into my back. “Sunshine, you disregarded me, disrespected

RUSLAN’S POV Did I just kiss my step-sister? Yes.Was I in the right state of mind? No, I certainly wasn't.Hell, she is ten years younger than me, yet, I almost bend her over my office desk and fuck her to oblivion.Ivana Alex is my step-sister, even if we weren't related by blood, but that didn't stop me from cupping her soft boobs, fondling with her ass cheeks, kissing and fisting on her lips like a goddamn feast.I hate that I couldn't control myself after I heard from Felix that she almost got raped.My sense of reasoning was left at the Devil priesthood, because I was sure as fuck it didn't follow me back to the Clan.If it had, I wouldn't have pushed my step-sister to the wall and kissed her like she was my next breath and without her, I won't survive.“Fuck you Ruslan. Fuck you!” I slammed my laptop shut and raked my hand into my already disheveled hair.Dealing with other preys wasn't that hard to assert my dominance on them, but when it came to a certain person, it seemed h

IVANA'S POV Stepping into the college arena with Aria beside me, a smile curled up on my lips.Closing my eyes, I inhaled softly, letting the soft breeze slam against my flushed cheeks.“What are you doing, Ivana? Students are watching.” Aria tapped my shoulder as she whisper-yelled at me, her eyes shut in embarrassment.I wasn't a bit embarrassed because it has been two fucking weeks since I last came to college, and it was all because of my step-brother.It felt good to be a free bird after a long time of being confined in one place.“Let them watch for all I bloody care, Aria.” I said, my eyes still tightly shut. “Do you know how it feels to be a free bird once again? God! It feels so fucking good.”This time, Aria didn't whisper-yell at me, instead, a laugh rumbled out her chest, blaring into my ears. “You're funny, Ivana. Why are you behaving like you've not stepped out for a year?”Peeling my eyes open, I turned sharply towards Aria who flinched a little as she had not expected
