Filed To Story: Mated To Big Brother-in-law
“You have no choice except to listen to my command. I could have asked for it that day. But I was not interested in you at that time. But…” he paused.
He lowered his head to look at her face and wrapped his hand around her waist, then continued,
“Since you caught my attention, I don’t have the mind to let you go.”
She broke into tears once again. She did not know when she was falling so deeply for him.
His words were good to hear until she learned the truth.
But now, everything has changed.
She started to feel disgusted with herself. Why does no man understand women’s hearts? Why are they always after lust?
The man who she used to think was the best person in the world cheated on her because he was sleeping with another girl. And now, she felt that her true love wanted to sleep with her without any commitment, as if she were his sex slave.
“You are free to take some time. There’s no hurry,” he said, moving his head closer to her.
She lifted her hands and pushed him harshly into his chest.
It was an unexpected push, which caused him to retrieve a step.
He glared at her in anger. No one had ever behaved like that with him.
“You will never get me. I will never be with you,” she said with a furious face.
She had lost her mind. She couldn’t take it anymore. The pain in her heart rose to her head.
Bryan clenched his jaw as he had lost his temper. He did not expect her to react like that. He thought she would agree with it. How could she forget her commitment to him? She told him that she would do anything; now, where was her loyalty to it? Should he have made her sign a contract at that time before allowing her brother to get back into the gamma’s position?
He experienced a sense of betrayal. He did not like losing in any manner, shape, or form.
“Don’t make me mad at you. You know I can do anything to get what I want.”
His warning did not affect Sophia. It was possible that she turned insane in that situation. Nothing could shatter her more.
She turned around and walked out of the place.
As she made her way through the reception area, the wait staff gave her a sideways glance. The fact that she was crying made them look taken aback.
She wiped her tears as she walked past them. She left the restaurant and looked at the street.
The entire street was completely dark. It was only the dim yellow lights of the restaurant’s gate that were able to give a glimpse of the route to take.
She started to walk down the street while sobbing. She felt that she had no way to go. It was as if every door was shut for her. Her own mate broke her heart. Her mental state was a complete disaster.
He gave her pain that could never be healed.
One by one, every memory was reflected in her mind.
How could she misunderstand his intention? He was no different than other men who looked at her with nasty eyes.
From the very beginning, he only felt lust for her. It was never love.
The way he healed her, the way he showed care for her by asking for meals, the way he took care of her safety by dropping her home at night, the way he kissed her, the way he tried to get close to her all of these things meant nothing?
Like a child who was lost in the middle of the road, she was crying while walking without any direction.
“Why is it that fate continues to test my patience? Where did I go wrong? Why me?” she asked herself.
Due to the fact that she could not walk properly, her heels were making a cracking sound on the ground.
The sound of a horn could be heard coming from behind. However, she was so preoccupied with her own thoughts that she could not hear it.
A car paced to her side and stopped beside her.
She halted her steps and slowly turned her head, only to find Bryan getting out of the car.
Seeing that it was Bryan, she started to walk again.
“Sophia, get in the car,” he said while trying to grab her hand.
She yanked his hand and yelled at him,
“Don’t touch me.”
With a stern look on his face, he grasped her waist and pulled her closer to him.
“I will, and you can’t stop me.”
In her anger, she made an attempt to push him. “Leave me. I’m not a bitch who men can touch at any time.”
He grabbed the back of her neck and made her look at him.
His eyes turned red as he replied to her remarks.
“Forget about other men. I’ll make sure you’ll just be my bitch.”
Sophia stared at Bryan. Why was he doing this to her?
Every second that went by, her heart was becoming more and more icy. During that very moment, she was unable to comprehend what actions to take.
As soon as Bryan noticed that she was staring at him without making any sound, he spoke in a calm tone.
“Come with me. I’ll drop you home.”
“I don’t want to go with you. I can go alone. You don’t have to worry about me,” she muttered, looking away from his face.
His grip on her waist tightened, which caused her to hiss.
“This place is far away from your house. You won’t get a lift here, either. If other wolves notice you, they will tear you apart. Is that better than going with me?”
Sophia was a little shocked by his statement. However, she shook her head.
“I still don’t want to.”
He glared at her as he did not like what she had said. He pulled her to his car and opened the door, then pushed her inside the passenger seat. The loudness with which he shut the door caused her to flinch.
He returned to the driver’s seat. He was about to start the car but turned to her.
It was as if she had lost her mind as she stared at the road. To ensure that she was wearing her seatbelt, he moved closer to her. As soon as he extended his hand to the belt that was located next to her waist, she shoved him swiftly.
“Don’t touch me.”
Her response stunned him. All this time, he was trying to calm down in front of her. He did not like it, but for her, he was behaving with patience. However, right after how she had reacted, he lost his calm.
He grabbed her hands and locked them on the window glass with one hand.
Sophia was frightened by his actions. Both of her eyes widened as she gazed at him.
“I can’t tolerate more nonsense of yours,” he said, grabbing the belt and locking it.
She glanced at the belt and realized that he was only trying to do that. But his following sentence almost halted her breathing.
“If I want, I can take you right here. Don’t make me do something that you will regret later. Right now, I only want to drop you home. Stay quiet, and let me drive calmly.”
She let out a shaky breath when he released her hands and moved back.
After exhaling deeply, Bryan started the car.
Sophia leaned her back against the seat and turned to the window so that she could avoid looking at him.
She did not make any sound, just like he said. She became silent. Her eyes were fixed on the outside world.
The darkness implied her inner situation. The darkness of the night sky mirrored the blankness of her heart. The hopes that she had built up in her heart were dashed in a single night.
When she looked out the window, she could see drunk men going along the road while laughing with each other. It dawned on her that Bryan was actually right. But didn’t he also have the same intention that those men would have after seeing her alone?
Her eyes fell on the woods when the car passed the forest, which was headed in another direction.
She stared at the trees. Because of the closed window, she could not feel the fresh air. Though she wanted to have some, she had no strength to roll down the window.
The tears were streaming down her face as she leaned her head against the edge of the seat.
Life betrayed her in a way where there was no way to go.
During the whole ride, Bryan did not say anything to her. She also shut her mouth, trying her best to avoid him completely. There was death silence in the car.
Bryan stopped the car in front of her house. She did not realize that they had reached her home, so she remained unmoved.
