Chapter

Six years of secret love with my brother

The day before Valentine’s, I snuck to his office hoping to surprise him

Instead, I got the shock of my life overhearing a conversation through his halfopen door

Your stepsister, Lorianaren’t you over that game yet? When are you finally dumping her? Waitdon’t tell me you’ve fallen for her?” 

Lorian’s reply drifted through the crack, that smooth, confident tone I used to melt for now turning my 

blood to ice

Fallen? For her?He snorted. Please. She’s just a free toy that fell into my lap. Who turns down something that costs nothing?” 

Jocelyn’s the only one who’ll ever be my wife.” 

The office went quiet before he continued, each word like twisting a knife in 

my 

chest

Her mom destroyed my parentsmarriage. These six years with her daughter? Just my little revenge project. She’s getting exactly what she deserves.” 

So that was it. Everything I thought was love was just his sick payback plan

All those latenight whispers, the promises, the way he’d pull me close when nobody was watchingjust another Oscarworthy performance

Well, if that’s how he wanted to play it, I was out

Don’t worry about me. Focus on planning my wedding with Jocelyn,Lorian’s voice continued, growing colder with each word

As for SylviaI have plenty of ways to make her pay.” 

I froze midstep, my breath caught in my throat

Imagine itfalling in love with your stepbrother, sneaking into his bed night after night, then having that shameful affair exposed at my wedding ceremony. Can she still have to live in the Lancelot family 

after that?” 

I can hardly wait.”

His friend Ewan’s voice softened with concern

Your parents were divorced for three years before her mother remarried your father. You can’t blame Sylvia for that. She was just starting college thenshe knew nothing about the family situation. Don’t you think this is too cruel?” 

A girl’s reputation is everything. You’re playing with fire herethis could destroy her life! She loves you so much. If she finds out you’ve been with her just for revenge, she might-” 

Lorian cut him off impatiently as he casually replied my message with an emoji

I want to destroy her! That’s the whole point!he snapped

Stop giving me that she’s innocentcrap. Was my mom innocent when she was thrown away like garbage? Hell no!” 

Blame her rotten luck for being that woman’s kid. Not my fault she was born trash. She brought this on 

herself!” 

If she had any real selfrespect, she wouldn’t have jumped into bed with me six years ago. The result now was her own choice. She deserves no sympathy.” 

Ewan sighed deeply before asking one final question

Wellbut after six years, I don’t believe you never felt anything. Lorian, I must warn youWhat’s done is done.there’s no turning back.” 

Lorian’s voice turned to ice. Fall in love with my enemy’s daughter? What do you take me for?” 

Looking at her face, so much similar to her mother’s, I feel disgusted even when I kiss her.” 

Just like her whore of a mother, she’s shameless. Ruining her reputation is already merciful on my part.” 

Ewan, seeing no way to change his mind, reluctantly left

Footsteps approached the door

I tried to hide, but the blue roses I’d brought scattered across the floor

Ewan and I locked eyes briefly as he passed. His face filled with pity

Lorian, hearing the commotion, rushed out. He found me kneeling, frantically gathering the fallen flowers, a pathetic sight

His expression flashed with momentary panic before he quickly composed himself, helping me to my feet

Sylvia? What are you doing here? When did you arrive?” 

I smiled even as tears fell unbidden down my cheeks

Just now. I wanted to surprise you, but I’m too clumsy to hold onto the flowers.” 

He smiled indulgently, carelessly tossing the roses aside as he led me into his office

He pinned me against the door, his body pressing into mine. I could feel his desire radiating through my clothes, burning hot against me

But all I felt inside was ice cold

I told you, no gifts needed. Your existence is the best gift to me.” 

Tired alright? Just take a break and I’ll take you home after I finish work.” 

He placed a gentle kiss on my forehead, the gesture as tender and loving as always

But I could no longer feel its warmth

I never knew someone could be such a convincing actor just to get revenge

On the day when my mom decided to marry into the Lancelot family as his second wife, I became instant gossip fodder. At their wedding, everyone whispered me as homewrecker’s daughterbehind my back

I hid in a corner, sobbing my heart out where no one could see me

Then Lorian appeared out of nowhere, like some guardian angel

He stood between me and all those vicious whispers. In that moment, he became my savior person who made me feel like I wasn’t completely alone

– 

the only 

I believed every word. I drowned willingly in his tenderness, never suspecting it was all a calculated 

vengeance

Love is nothing but an illusionmoonlight on water, flowers in a mirror

And he was the one planning to push me into the abyss

While Lorian was busy working, I messaged my mother

Mom, I want to study abroad. Keep it secret.” 

On our drive home, he casually mentioned, Dad’s pressuring me about marriage. I’ve asked a friend to pretend to be my fiancée.”

Don’t worry. You’re the only one I love. She’s agreed to help keep our secret, and I’ll still live at home with you.” 

I stared out the window in silence, nodding slightly as tears fell silently

When we arrived home, while he was in the shower, I unlocked his phone
