Her Obsessed Stepbrother

She sternly said, "This is forbidden, Asael…" which made his jaw clench in anger. Her voice echoed the harsh words that shattered his life four years ago, repeating, "This is wrong." "Why is it wrong, Ezrene? Is it because I'm your obsession, our stepbrother?" He growled, pinning her against his muscular frame. "Or is it because our fathers' impending marriage binds us?" "But as far as I recall," he leaned in menacingly, "you willingly let me get so close that you…" His words hung heavy, "You were pregnant with our child, a fact you concealed even from me." "That very child you destroyed with your own hands before I knew of its existence," a devastating pain flashed through his eyes, tearing her apart. He pressed his forehead against hers, his voice laced with venom, "Your father will surely seek retribution, Asael." "You believe I fear him or my own demise?" He asked, cupping her face with gentle yet forceful hands. "If I did, I wouldn't have dared snatch you from your altar, in front of your future husband, our father, and the entire world, bella." "Because we both know, you belong solely to me," he whispered, his lips finding hers. The intensity of his love, however, threatened to crush her spirit, as she found herself entangled in an embrace she couldn't escape – with her own obsessed stepbrother.
