Mated To My Obsessive Stepbrother

KASMINE
Why the hell was I letting this get to me?
I had no right to feel this way-no right to feel... jealous. Offended. Hurt.
Gods, I was being so stupid.
I clenched my fists, pressing my nails into my palins, anything to ground myself before my emotions spiraled into something I couldn't control. I wasn't supposed to care. Not about Kester. Not about what or who he did behind closed doors.
And yet, the image of him of her was burned into my mind, playing in an endless, torturous loop.
I hadn't seen Kester all day. Hell, he hadn't even stepped out of his damn room this morning. He'd told the driver and his guards to take me to the office.
I never meant to knock on his door. I swear I didn't.
But anger was a reckless thing. It had a way of moving my body before my mind could catch up. I was too angry, too shaken, too in need of something close to an explanation that I didn't even know when my knuckles were rapping against the heavy wood of his door, pretending so fucking badly that I only wanted to check if we were leaving for the office together.
Lies.
But, to my utter dismay, June was the one who answered the door. She was in a different nightie from the one I had seen her in last night.
I didn't need to be told what that meant.
Kester had ruined the other one. Torn it apart. Probably while he was deep inside her.
My stomach twisted violently, but I swallowed it down, forcing my expression into something indifferent. Unbothered. But all I could see was the image of her on her knees, her lips wrapped around his cock while he....
Stop.
I forced myself to breathe. Forced my lips into a polite, meaningless smile.
“Is Kester inside?" I asked, my voice perfectly even as if I wasn't seconds away from breaking my own damm neck just to make the agony stop.
And what did she say? "Oh, Kasmine, Kester is a bit too tired this morning. He says you should go ahead of him."
My heart almost stopped at her words. My knees nearly buckled. I barely held my balance, biting the inside of my cheek so hard I swore I tasted blood.
Too tired.
Too tired to even get out of bed?
Kester never missed work. Never. Not for anything. Not for anyone.
-But today?
Today, he was "too tired."
Chapter 45
Because of her.
Because he'd spent the entire night fucking her senseless.
The bastard. The shameless bastardl
It was past 2 pm already, and he was still not here. Still probably fucking June. Asshole.
Yet He had the audacity to pretend with me, spin his pretty little lies, and act as if I meant something to him. Only a fool would take Kester's words seriously. And maybe just maybe I was the biggest fool of all.
