When the door of the Church was opened, a woman with long hair and a white dress appeared, noticing the lump or more correctly telling her that she was pregnant. Shes looking at here here at the altar where Eliot and I were standing while. I saw the pain that could be seen in her two eyes and she slowly walked closer to us.

If I describe her appearance, I can say that she looks like a Barbie doll because of her whiteness and innocent looks. When she got close to us, she stopped in the middle not far from us because it looked like it was only four walks.

"H-Hubby ...... w-what's ... the meaning of this" she said softly and stuttering as he looked back and forth with the two of us I saw her tears dripping while holding his one hand in her stomach bulged. I looked at Eliot and d*mn. I just saw that expression that you can see with concern. I moved away from him a little.

“Eliot what is happening right now! Do you know this girl? ” I asked him sharply and confusedly. But I didn't get an answer from him and he just approached the pregnant woman.

"B-baby d*mn stop crying okay it's not good with our baby" he worriedly said to the pregnant woman. It was as if a few needles had pierced me. What I witnessed today in the day of our wedding.

"Eliot can you explain this to me because I'm confused. It's our wedding day today but this is what's happening !!" I told him.

"CAN YOU F*CKING SHUT UP!" He shouted at me with all his might So I jumped a little and gradually dripped My tears I also see The people who are already looking confusily to us.

"Oh my God! We are in the Church, don't cuss here, fear God ”The Priest panickly said but I ignored him.

"So you're shouting me just for that woman!" I said to him.

“Stop it Iris! Let's just talk later, I'll take her home first ”I was hurt when he mentioned my name because he hasn't called me by my first name yet because we always call each other Honey.

"Let's go home baby" He said gently to the woman while he's escorting the woman and they slowly walked to leave the Church.

"H-honey .... Y-your leaving me here?" I said softly and I knew he heard that. So he stopped but he also continued to walk.

"I Swear when you leave in this Church. That means you don't nothing to go back to." when I said that he stopped and looked at me.

"Plaese Iris not now" he said with pleasing eyes.

"When you go with the woman that just means that you prefer her" I said while My tears slowly pour on my cheeks.

"F*CK IT IRIS WHY DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND THE WORD LET'S TALK LATER !!!" He shouted So I can't speak because this is the first time he shouted at me during our time together.

I was just stunned by the absence and let them go. I was sitting on the cement of the Church and wept because of what had happened.

“Oh My God !! Daughter, are you okay? ”My aunt approached me but my mind was blank and I just cried.

"Husshh now Iris, my son we'll surely pay for this" aunt agnes said and she hugged me I was dumb but I cried and didn't even listened to other various comments. Because of too much crying I lost consciousness.

“Oh gosshhh Rex help us she collapse !!” I even heard my aunt shout at her husband which is uncle Rex but I couldn't hear anything because my brain was blank.

AN AGE GAP, FORCED PROXIMITY, BLACK FLAG ROMANCE

Vincenzo Valentini is a man who sees the world as a business counter and human beings as merchandise.

The owner of an empire built upon corpses and submission, he is the reflection of pure perversity.

When fate places Andrew Thompson, the son of his greatest rival, into his hands, the plan was simple: use him, break him, and discard him like a toy that has lost its appeal.

What Vincenzo did not expect was that, beneath the youthful skin and the appearance of innocence, Andrew hid the same abyss as he did.

Vincenzo never wanted redemption. He never wanted someone to save him from his own darkness. He was seeking a mirror. And in Andrew, he found the partner who, upon seeing his blood-stained hands, does not recoil in terror, but trembles with desire.

In this perverse game, the "little toy" proves to be the perfect executioner. The mafia leader found someone who not only accepts his cruel side but cultivates it, feeding the monster Vincenzo has always been.

Where there should have been fear, lust emerged. Where there should have been hatred, a perverse loyalty was born. Andrew Thompson is the dark reflection of Vincenzo, the soldier the underworld did not see coming, and the man who proved that, for some, paradise only makes sense if it is in the middle of chaos.

Vincenzo opened the doors to his empire, but Andrew was the only one capable of invading his heart.

They are not heroes. They are hell on earth.

Falling for my boyfriend's Navy brother.

"What is wrong with me?

Why does being near him make my skin feel too tight, like I’m wearing a sweater two sizes too small?

It’s just newness, I tell myself firmly.

He’s my boyfirend’s brother.

This is Tyler’s family.

I’m not going to let one cold stare undo that.

**

As a ballet dancer, My life looks perfect—scholarship, starring role, sweet boyfriend Tyler. Until Tyler shows his true colors and his older brother, Asher, comes home.

Asher is a Navy veteran with battle scars and zero patience. He calls me "princess" like it's an insult. I can't stand him.

When My ankle injury forces her to recover at the family lake house, I‘m stuck with both brothers. What starts as mutual hatred slowly turns into something forbidden.

I'm falling for my boyfriend's brother.

**

I hate girls like her.

Entitled.

Delicate.

And still—

Still.

The image of her standing in the doorway, clutching her cardigan tighter around her narrow shoulders, trying to smile through the awkwardness, won’t leave me.

Neither does the memory of Tyler. Leaving her here without a second thought.

I shouldn’t care.

I don’t care.

It’s not my problem if Tyler’s an idiot.

It’s not my business if some spoiled little princess has to walk home in the dark.

I’m not here to rescue anyone.

Especially not her.

Especially not someone like her.

She’s not my problem.

And I’ll make damn sure she never becomes one.

But when my eyes fell on her lips, I wanted her to be mine.
