To Hate My Stepbrother

Ava’s POV

Scurrying out of the office as soon as I could, I could hear my heart thumping as I approached the penthouse and it wasn’t until I got in did I feel safe.

“Mason.” I cried as I made my way to him and hugged him while he stroked my hair lightly in a bid to calm me down.

“You’re fine,” he hushed and I sniffled as I snuggled more into his arms that he seemed like I wanted to get inside him, “what’s the matter?” He asked when I’ve finally calmed down.

Having my seat while Mason poured me a glass of water, I explained everything that happened back at the office to him and told him how Chad had pestered and almost hit me.

“I’m gonna kill him.” He seethed as he left his seat and picked up his coat. I knew that Mason would do anything to him but I couldn’t risk him doing that yet.

“No, please no,” I stopped him and he turned to look at me in disbelief with one eyebrow raised, “if you do that you’re going to ruin our perfectly good chance at nabbing him.” I explained and his breathing slowed down.

“And we don’t want that to happen,” I muttered as I got closer to him, “just move me from that department to my previous one or to the research department since we already know the truth.” I explained with a sigh.

“I just don’t want to be anywhere around him so please do anything to take me away from him.” I added and Mason nodded in agreement to my suggestions.

“Okay, that sounds like a good idea,” he smiled and I kissed him, “I’ll have you moved but for now you have to have a relaxing bath and a long sleep. You’ve earned it.” He kissed me again as he pulled off my coat.

“You know I would enjoy it more if you get in there with me.” I bit my lower lip because I knew how crazy that gets him.

“I would too but you really need to relax,” he kissed me again as he led me to our room, “tomorrow, we’ll go out and have fun.” He promised with a smile that I returned.

“I was about to say that you’re no fun but I’m glad that you are.” I laughed as Mason went into the bathroom to help me run my bath.

Pulling my clothes off, I let out a sigh as I made my way to the bathroom to see Mason already soaked in the bubble bath he’d run for me.

Laughing, I joined him and we both soaked in it in each other’s arms before finally deciding to go to bed.

“Goodnight Sweetheart.” He kissed my hair as he pulled me closer into him. I felt safe in his arms and whenever I’m cuddled with him I feel like no harm can come to me.

Smiling, I closed my eyes and gave into the arching urge to rest after a long day at the office today.

Groaning, I winced when the sunlight peered into the room and affected my eyes. I buried my face in the pillow for a while before finally getting the strength to stand up.

Looking around, Mason wasn’t on the bed with me and he also wasn’t anywhere around the house, “Good Morning.” Khalid’s cheerful voice greeted me when I got downstairs.

I was about to go sit with him when the doorbell rang and I went to answer it but there was no one at the door. I turned to leave but my eyes caught the big box on the doorstep.

Carrying it, it felt heavy but I knew it was mine because it had my name on the tiny note on it. I looked at the back of the paper and I couldn’t hold back my smile when I saw that it was from Mason.

Hurriedly, I took it to the bedroom to check the content and I was in awe when I saw the beautiful purple gown. I never really liked the purple color but the dress was really gorgeous and there were also a black wedge heels to match.

Quickly, my feet padded to the bathroom and I started getting ready, I looked at the mirror and felt like a Disney Princess.

The doorbell rang again and when I walked down the stairs Khalid and Mason were standing in the doorway, “Whoa.” They both let out at the same time.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“You’re beautiful.” Mason kissed me when I got to him and soon we were out of the house and in the car. We dropped Khalid off at his friend’s house.

I felt a little bit bad for having to drop Khalid off just to have fun but Michael’s mother assured me that she was going to take care of him and I needed some time off to have fun.

We got to a really exquisite restaurant and I couldn’t help the gasp that escaped my lips. Mason took my hands and we both made our way to our reserved table.

I could feel the fleet of eyes on me and somehow I felt uncomfortable but Mason is with me, “you’re too beautiful I just have to show you off.” He whispered and I smiled as we got to our table.

The server came to take our order and I couldn’t hide my amusement when Mason threatened to fire him because he was flirting with me and he’d even asked that our waiter should be changed.

“No one gawks at what’s mine.” He told me and I laughed as we both ate our food silently. We soon finished eating and decided to take a walk hand in hand.

We got to a bench and sat down there as we gazed at the beautiful flowers. I was engrossed with staring at them when Mason pulled my face away and kissed me softly.

“I really can’t wait to get you naked and fuck you so hard.” He whispered into my ear and that sent spirals pulsating pleasure through me.
