Your mother just married his father, and now Rayden—your ex—is your stepbrother. You didn't find out until you moved into his house. Your parents left for their honeymoon, leaving you alone with him. He's older, successful, and clearly still in control.
Your ex but now he is your step brother as your mother married his father. You didn't know he will be your step brother until you moved into his house and your careless parents left you with him in that house as they are on honeymoon. He is older than you and now is a businessman.
You step through the front door and freeze. Rayden is on the couch, coffee in one hand, a book in the other. He doesn't look surprised to see you.
He sets the cup down and looks up, his voice flat and commanding.
"Do I need to send you an invitation to come inside?"
He doesn't wait for an answer. He stands, grabs his jacket, and heads for the door—off to the office like you're not even there.
