Filed To Story: Mated To Big Brother-in-law
Tears streamed out of Sophia’s eyes. She slowly wiped her tears so that her mother could not see them or that tears could not fall on her mother’s clothes.
“Your brother is already in a good position. So after seeing you with your mate, I can die in peace.”
She sat up and embraced her mother. “Please, don’t say that. You know how much Brother and I love you, Mom. We can’t live without you. If something happens to you, what will happen to us?”
Her mother smiled while caressing her back. “You know your mom is a heart patient. Anything can happen at any time.”
Even though she bit her bottom lip in an attempt to stop her sobbing, Sophia was unable to do so.
She went to her bedroom after she had finished her conversation with her mother.
Because she was unable to fall asleep the night before, she slept through the entire day.
When she finally opened her eyes, it was already late in the evening. Her mother told her to eat something. She had her meals while using her phone.
She saw that all the photos of her and Bryan from last night’s party had been taken down. She felt relaxed. She did not want other people to have a misunderstanding of her. She did not like what they were saying about her.
She got a call from Sara. Sara asked her about how the night was. It was impossible for Sophia to explain to her what took place after she and Bryan left the party.
She could not just tell her friend what her mate was thinking about her.
It was not love but lust, which he only felt for her.
“I had to return home early, and we could not talk much.” Sophia lied to Sara.
She could hear a tone of disappointment from Sara. “Oh no! I thought I would hear your delightful tone, but it turned out you two could not even confess to each other.”
“Y-Yeah.”
“Don’t worry. I have observed how that man looks at you. I must say he is eager to devour you.”
Sophia lowered her head as she looked at her hand. She had nothing to say.
When you were thinking about someone who loved you and wanted to do something for you, it was a different thing. On the other hand, for the man who was only interested in touching her without any feelings towards her, it seemed as though she was considering selling her body to him.
“Sara, how is your relationship with Nolan? You never thought that he would be your mate, right?” Sophia asked.
After a little pause, Sara replied, “Well, you are right. But the mate bond is something we can’t deny, even if we want. It pulls us closer. And the fact is, mates are really possessive about each other. So when Nolan found me as his mate, he could not just control himself. In fact, he still can’t control himself whenever I’m around him,” Sara said with a laugh.
While Sara was uttering those words, Sophia could not help but imagine that she was flushing.
“And let me tell you, Sophia. When you get close to Alpha, you will realize the magic of this bond.”
Sophia let out a long breath. “I don’t think everything will run like we want, Sara. Maybe I should keep myself away from him. My status is nothing in front of him.”
Sara was shocked for a few seconds after hearing Sophia, but then she replied.
“This mate bond is absolutely insane. It is comparable to an addiction. No matter how hard you try to avoid your mate, you will never be able to be apart from him.”
It was the weekend.
For Sophia, the past two days had been awful. She locked herself in her room and cried alone.
She wanted the old Bryan back. She yearned for that Bryan, who had given her a gentle kiss while she was riding in his car, who had taken care of her when she was going home alone at night, and who had complimented her on how beautiful she looked in his gifted dress.
Why did everything change in one night? What was the reason that all of her hopes were dashed in the blink of an eye?
As she examined her face in the mirror, she rubbed her dark circles under her eyes. Her face was getting worse as a result of her lack of sleep at night, and she did not like how it was getting worse.
“Sophia.”
She heard her mother’s voice coming from downstairs.
“Come to have breakfast, darling.”
Her mother shouted to let her know that breakfast was ready.
She responded in a loud voice after opening the door.
“I’m coming, Mom.”
She freshened up hurriedly and went to the closet to change her clothes.
Her eyes fell on a black suit jacket. She slowly lifted her hand and touched the soft jacket.
She pulled it close to her nose and sniffed the scent on it.
It was Bryan’s coat that he wrapped around her before leaving her in front of her home.
She could not figure out why he had changed so suddenly or if that was how he had always been.
With a hasty movement, she took out a dress for herself and put on it.
She left her room and went downstairs to have breakfast with her mother.
“Are you not going somewhere today?” her mother inquired.
Sophia stopped chewing, and she gave her mother a glance. “Where, Mom?”
“It’s the weekend. I thought you planned to go somewhere.”
The expression on Sophia’s face changed. She did not want to go anywhere. She was not feeling good. She was heartbroken.
“No, Mom.”
“Why are you feeling so down, my sweetheart? Are you missing your brother?”
She looked at her mother and replied, “How is he, Mom?”
Right at that moment, her mother’s phone began to ring.
“Oh! My! It’s your brother!” Her mother let out a resounding jolt.
Sophia smiled at her and said, “Please receive the call.”
Her mother was overjoyed to see that her son had called him, and she received the call almost immediately. Despite his busy schedule, he took his time out to just talk to his mother.
“Abraham!”
As Sophia watched her mother talk on the phone, she noticed that she was beaming. It gave her a warm feeling in her heart.
Her mother turned her gaze to Sophia while she was speaking to Abraham. After a few minutes of conversation, she said,
“Yes, your sister is here. Talk to her.”
She handed the phone to Sophia.
Sophia held the phone and put it close to her ear, only to hear her brother’s voice.
“Sophia.”
Her eyes got teary the moment she heard his voice. She stood up from the chair to go back to her room to talk to her brother alone.
She gave her mother a quick glance, who gave her a nod of approval, indicating that she could return to her bedroom.
As soon as Sophia entered her bedroom and shut the door behind her, she began to cry silently.
“Brother, how are you?” she asked with sobs.
“Sophia, are you crying?”
“No, it’s a tear of happiness.”
“I’m totally fine. But I’m mad at you.”
“Why, brother?”
Sophia was perplexed as to why her brother was angry with her.
“Why didn’t you tell me that you joined the Morrison Group?”
Her eyes widened in shock. How did he get to know about it? What she remembered, she told her mother not to tell him about it.
“Who told you that?”
“Whoever told me that doesn’t matter anymore. First, tell me, why didn’t you inform me about it? And why did you go to that company in the first place where Alpha was working? In fact, it’s his own company.”
Sophia was nervous. She knew he would get mad, which was why she forbade her mother not to raise the matter with him.
