To Hate My Stepbrother

Ava’s POV

It was finally the weekend and I still had three more days to spend with Mason. I enjoyed the three days with him and in the space of those days I was able to see another side of him.

I got to see more beautiful sides to him, I got to really get to know and connect with him on different levels. Those were the reasons that made me fall in love with him when we were younger.

Being with him was so beautiful and whenever he was around nothing else mattered to me, nothing else usually matters as long as I have Mason.

He was different from all of the other guys I’d met, he was different from Xander that bailed on me when he kissed me, he was also different from my husband who treated women like they were nothing.

Mason knew how to treat a woman with so much love, he makes me feel heard, seen, he makes me feel amazing and that was all I ever wanted.

Although he hadn’t told me he loves me yet and it bothers me because sometimes I just really want to hear those words from him. I wanted him to confess and tell me just how much he loves and can’t live without me.

I’d decided to let it go and now let it bother me since he was doing a good job showing it to me. For now, all I’ll do is just enjoy the happiness and have fun and worry about the L word later.

We enjoyed each other’s company and I was going through my email when I saw Nicole had dropped a message from me.

‘Get your ass to San Francisco as soon as you can, it’s really urgent.’

I read her mail out loud and I wondered what could be so urgent that she couldn’t have called me but had decided to send a mail to me.

It’s the weekend and Nicole was supposed to be with her husband and baby in Los Angeles but I couldn’t wrap my head around why she’d request a meet up in San Francisco.

Did she have a fight with Ryan and elope with the baby?

It began to bother me, I really needed to know that my best friend was okay with her husband and child.

“Do you think she had a fight with him?” I asked in confusion as I explained the mail I got from Nicole to Mason and he was just as confused as I was.

“Didn’t you say they were cool and everything is going fine?” He asked and I nodded affirmatively as I packed my bags and got ready to leave.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’ll go with you.” He offered as he started packing his bags too so he could leave with me but I refused and stopped him.

“I’m not a child, I can take care of myself,” I stated as I kissed him, “you should stay back and enjoy the rest of your vacation because it’s no longer a business trip.” I joked and kissed him again.

Mason wasted no time in booking a flight for me and I hurriedly boarded, I couldn’t wait to get to San Francisco and it didn’t take long for us to land.

I didn’t even bother dropping off my bags at Mason’s place and I’d instead headed straight to the address Nicole sent to me.

I got there and I was met with a shock that wasn’t really a shock, here I was worrying about my best friend when she’s leaving her life to the fullest and eating like a pig.

“What the hell? You scared me,” I yelled and hit her head as soon as I got there, she laughed before standing to face me.

“Aren’t you supposed to say hi first?” She said amidst laughter and we both hugged each other long enough.

I was just glad she was fine and nothing had happened to her.

“What’s going on?” I asked, setting my back down and sitting with her at the table, “what’s the emergency?” I added and she shrugged.

“I just wanted to see my best friend before going back to LA to see my husband and child.” She answered and I yelled at her as I tossed the cheese at her.

“I just left Mason in the city because of this?!” I yelled again, “I had three more fucking days to enjoy myself and you had to ruin it for this!” I added in a fake cry.

“Now I won’t be able to see him for three days because of you, why’d you do this to me Nicole?” I asked.

I lifted my gaze to see her eyebrows raised and I knew what was next, she definitely would want the entire details of what’s going on.

“What do you mean Mason and the city?” She asked, looking confused and I had no choice than to tell her everything that went down between Mason and I.

“Well, I got a job and wanted to stop living with my mum so I’d thought I was going to get an apartment but Mason had a penthouse and…”

“A penthouse? He’s that rich?” Nicole cut me off mid sentence and I nodded positively while she shrieked in excitement for me.

Finally getting her to keep quiet, I explained everything to her from the moment I started living with him and how we became close to his nice and gentle gesture to how I followed him out of the country on a business trip which eventually became a vacation that she ruined.

“He’s huge and fucking good in bed.” I finished as I explained the sex part to her and Nicole screamed her lungs out to the extent that everyone stared at us like we were crazy.

“Why on earth were you keeping something as huge as this away from me?” She asked, pouting and I laughed as we both stood to go have a drink together.
