Chapter 13 Zane I was feeling quite irritated . 47 % & Addison is way hopeless than I could have anticipated . When Gregg said she still wasn't over her ex , i never could have imagined it was this bad . This was making me very annoyed , cause it means making her fall for me might be way harder than I predicted . The fact that she still seeks out his approval was proof enough of that . Anger flooded my insides towards Marco . Fuck ass Marco , who still loves Addison , but is content to have her at his side as his friend till whenever it gets convenient for him to finally let her into his life . It's too fucking bad for him that I was already in the process of putting a halt to that plan of his . When we had been at the beach , he had spent half the time glaring at me , then the remaining half , he spent it checking out Addison in the ridiculously revealing bikini I had her wear today . I was certain Addison was completely unaware of Marco's eyes on her throughout the whole time we spent at the beach , which was a good thing . She didn't need to know that Marco still liked her , cause I plan to make her fall for me after all . She just needs to keep believing that we're both working towards getting Marco to notice her . Most of the guys who had their own girlfriends present had subtly checked Addison out down at the beach , and that had clearly angered Marco , which was why he told her he was disappointed she wore something that revealing . If only he knew how I plan to make Addison fall for me and completely get over him . That's something that's gonna utterly break Marco , and it's exactly what I'm aiming for . I stared down at Addison still in my arms , her lips looking real kissable right now , and I was mildly looking forward to when we'd get an excuse to kiss again , just so I can draw those cute sounds from her throat . As soon as we stepped outside the house , to where a fire was burning and everyone were already seated around it , the guys hooted on noticing us and I gently settled Addison down , making sure that my hands lingered on her waist , and at once , I felt Marco glaring daggers at me . " Remember our plan tonight ? " I murmured against her car , enjoying the way she shivered against me . " Yeah ." She nodded , then we were sitting side by side , right in front of Marco and Aisha , who instantly 1/5 11:48 Wed , 3 Sept A Chapter 13 glared at Addison. K47 % L When my eyes met with Marco , he was scowling at me , hatred filing his eyes . I rolled my eyes and ignored him , choosing to wrap my arm around Addison and tug her close to me . " Now , the games can finally get started ! " One of the guys whose name I don't remember , yelled out as he handed out drinks to Addison and myself . I I usually refrain from physical contact except when necessary , but now , I have been doing a lot of that with this woman since last night , cause I'm hoping all of this would make her fall for me even faster . The faster she falls for me , the faster Marco would call off this ridiculous wedding in order to chase after her , which would automatically leave my inheritance safe till i successfully win the twisted game being wielded against me by my family . " Now , we'll start off with truth or dare ! " The same guy who I'd be assuming is hosting tonight's game , announced and everyone hooted , holding their beers in the air . " You've played this game before , right ? " I murmured quietly to Addison who scoffed , then she elbowed me hard . " Of course I have , I know how it works . " She snapped in a quiet voice and I resisted the urge to laugh . Whenever she gets annoyed , she managed to look even more adorable to me . " You're suffocating her ," Marco bit out , pointing to Addison , who shook her head then leaned it against my shoulder . " I'm okay , Marco . " She assured him with a warm smile on , and I liked the look of rage on Marco's face as he glared at me . I liked Addison's response just now , and I fully approved of it . Perhaps her head is really back in the game . My phone chose that moment to ring , and I excused myself to go answer it , cause it was from my grandfather . " Hey , gramps . " I mumbled into the phone once I was at a far distance from the gathering . My grandfather , the father of my father , was the only one on my side right now . The rest of my family has turned against me , and because of what ? Only because of a stupid fucking lie . Everything my father owns , is from my grandfather , which is why now , my grandfather is behind me successfully getting my inheritance back , cause he initially willed everything over to me after my 215 11:48 Wed , 3 Sept A Chapter 13 father tried to deceive and betray him . 餐 347 % & " How are you ? You getting along with your brother just fine ? " He asked and I rolled my eyes . My poor grandfather thought I was really here to nicely speak to Marco and convince him to step down from what rightfully belongs to me . " Of course , gramps . " I murmured . " And you ? How are you ? Are the meds helping today ? " He was presently sick , and has been sick for the past few years . After he fell sick , he was unable to handle his investments and riches himself . That's the point my father began to steal his investments , and when he noticed , he pushed my father away , pulled me closer , and fully trusted me with everything he had . He then willed everything to me , but my father managed to get his hand on the will , had it altered , and moved the inheritance to Marco instead . Cause if it all goes to Marco , they'd share the inheritance equally , so that was my father's Safest bet . He'd have willed the inheritance to himself after getting a hold of the will , instead of Marco , but there's only so much altering that could be done to the will , so he had to settle with using Marco to get everything from me . After a few more exchanges between myself and my grandfather , the call came to an end and I returned back to the gathering around the fire . As I got closer , some of their conversations started reaching me . " Admit it , you might be in a relationship with his brother , but you're still not over Marco . " One of the guys was saying to Addison , then they were all laughing and urging her to admit it . I could see Addison's face darken with color all the way from here , and I shook . my head . It was truly pathetic that literally everyone are able to easily see through her , and more pathetic that they've all clearly witnessed her so love sick over Marco , which is why they love to tease her about it , and I feel a little sorry for her , for falling for someone as horrible as Marco . " I'm really not , guys ! Please stop bringing it up , it's getting annoying ! " Addison finally gritted out in response . At least she was able to speak back . If not , her pathetic - ness would be so much worst . Besides , I still couldn't understand how she's unable to move on from a relationship that happened . five years ago . " Oh , yeah ? Okay . I dare you to go over to him and kiss Marco right now . " One of the guys said , and the rest of the guys were instantly on board . Most of the girls present laughed , but I noticed that Aisha and a few of her friends weren't present any longer . When Addison remained silent instead of instantly shutting down that ridiculous dare and reminding 3/5 48 wed , Chapter 13 @ 47 % them that she has a boyfriend , I decided to head back to the gathering right now before she does something stupid like actually going over to kiss him . I wouldn't put it past her , knowing how love sick she is , she might be unable to fight against the urge to do that . As soon as I sat beside Addison and draped a hand over her shoulder , she flushed as our gazes met , and I just know she'd have really gone over if I hadn't arrived right now . " She can't do that , cause her boyfriend is here beside her . If she's to kiss anyone , it should obviously be me ." Lannounced , and the boys groaned while some laughed , and others nodded , " Uh , y- yeah . " Addison mumbled , unable to meet my gaze , and I snorted . I'd have to have a talk with her again once we're alone . She really was a love sick fool . " You're ruining all the fun ! " Marco snapped , and my gaze snapped up to him as he continued . " Of course , I never expected Addison to actually do the dare since she's such a prude . " He snapped and everyone laughed . Beside me , I felt Addison stiffen and recoil into herself . " You have a fiancee , brother . You definitely shouldn't have agreed to the dare in the first place , your should have shot it down . " I pointed out calmly , and the silence that settled over us was quite heavy , till Marco spluttered . " It was just a harmless dare , and everyone are adults and matured here , so it doesn't mean anything . and me having a fiancee doesn't have anything to do with this . And like I said , I didn't shut the dare down cause I just knew she wouldn't agree to do it cause she's always been a boring prude since I've known her . If I knew she was gonna do it , of course I'd have shut it down cause she's literally my friend and nothing more , so why would I ever wanna kiss her even as a dare ? " He snapped again . Addison stiffened even more beside me , and I hated that his words always managed to affect her this much . I just know she's already second guessing her entire existence right now . Truly , I feel very sorry for her that she fell in love with my brother . Anyone else would have been better than him . Now , this is where I come into the picture ; I'll uplift her and make her feel better , then in no time , she'd have fully fallen for me before she even realizes it . " Well , she's not a prude . She just didn't do the stupid dare cause unlike others , she's loyal to me . " I breathed out , and everyone focused on me again . I could feel Marco glaring daggers at me as I turned to face Addison and took her chip in my hand so she was facing me Her eyes were a little glassy , like she had been on the verge of tears , which she slowly blinked away as she stared up at me . I stared at her for a moment longer before closing the distance us and taking her mouth in a searing kiss . 4/5 11:48 Wed , 3 Sept A Chapter 13 3.47 % & She whimpered , a tiny sound which i muffled and drank down as I sucked her bottom lip into my mouth . She had lied when she claimed my kisses made her feel nothing . I could feel her tremble against me right now , and I could see her nipples harden through her shirt right now . How cutely she'd respond if I twerk one of those buds , or lap at them with my tongue ... I was about to deepen the kiss when the guys began to groan about us getting a room , then I gently broke the kiss , my eyes instantly locking with Marco's furious ones . 11:48 Wed , 3 Sept 1 DA Chapter 14 Chapter 14 Zane Discover our latest featured short drama reel.
