Chasing Our Stepsister

What do you do when the man from a one night stand turns out to be your stepbrother? Do you forget that incredible night or…do you commit the same sin again and again? For Jade Evans, caught amidst her mother's new marriage and the turmoil it brings, an alcohol-fueled encounter on the hills leads to a shocking revelation- the stranger she shared an unforgettable night with is none other than her soon-to-be stepbrother. But that's not it- the man she encounters on the wedding day isn't the one she spent that passionate night with. Instead, he's someone closely associated with him. Now that all three of them have to stay under the same roof, surely, nothing can go wrong...right? *** "Remember when you said you'd drink me all up?" I projected my thoughts into his mind, interrupting his stream of thoughts. His body seemed to freeze, his eyes snapping in my direction. "What? Surprised?" I casually brought a piece of toast to my mouth, taking a bite. His jaw clenched visibly, clearly rattled as he lowered the glass without taking a sip, unfastening the first few buttons of his black shirt. Fuck! I wanted to see him just as exposed as that night. As for Chase, he didn't spare me a word. "I've got to admit, Stepbrother," I chuckled inwardly, confident he could hear my thoughts, "You're quite skilled at playing the 'clueless' act. If I hadn't seen your face so clearly, I might've believed that you're not Chase-" "Devon, where's Chase, by the way?" Frank's voice abruptly interrupted, causing me to freeze in place, my eyes shooting towards him. Did he just say... Chase? No way. I must've misheard.

CHAPTER 53 First Day, New Rules

  Jade

  "Well, I- " I hesitated, the words refusing to leave my lips. Would it be ungrateful to refuse the offer because of my ego? Damn it, I didn't know. Maybe it was a yes? Or perhaps a no. Hell, why did I even care? Argh! I was too confusing to myself.

  "Fine, I will join the company," Mya ended up taking over the reins of my mind, and I blurted out the words, instantly regretting them.

  Why the fuck did she do that?!

  This damn wolf...

  Before I could engage in an argument with my inner beast, Frank's voice broke through.

  "Great!" He beamed. "You can start at the office tomorrow. Chase and Devon will walk you through your responsibilities and start the handover process. You've made an excellent choice, Jade. I'm really pleased that you agreed."

  "Thank you, honey," Mom chimed in, her joy evident in her eyes.

  Damn it... I didn't know why I was running out of reasons to argue with Mya for coercing me into this.
