The morning sun tells Katrina that it was time to wake up but she lay down still on her bed, the event of last night still vivid in her head.

After crying like a weak fool in front of Jace Holloway, he had dragged her into his car and drove her back to the mansion.

He opened the door for her like a gentleman and while she wanted to get down, she nearly fell and he grasped her, luckily.

His arms guarded her shoulders, and at that time, she looked into his eyes. It wasn’t filled with hatred but

  • Too close brother    He's a good kisser

    Lexi opened the door with an expectant smile, hoping to see Jace standing there, but her eyes narrowed instantly when she saw Katrina standing there instead.“Shouldn't you be at the hospital?” she snapped, her smile wiped away.She had wanted this night to be perfect. A good chance to make a move on Jace, but seeing Katrina had just disrupted her plan.Katrina's gaze lifted. She inhaled slowly, forcing the irritation down. Her mind drifted worriedly to what Lexi had said when she came to the hospital.She parted her lips, hesitant to ask, but a warm hand slid into hers from behind. Katrina's breath caught, and she flinched a little, knowing who it was.He stepped beside her, his fingers threading naturally through hers. She turned to him quickly, her eyes widening to warn and remind him that they were supposed to be careful.“She’s here with me,” Jace said evenly, his voice calm but firm and protective.Lexi's gaze dropped to their intertwined hands, and something dark flickered acro

  • Too close brother    Keep us a secret

    Jennifer's phone vibrated on the table. She glanced at the screen absently, then froze as her eyes caught the pictures.The image loaded fully, and all the color drained from her face. It was Katrina and Jace, their lips unmistakably locked.Her fingers trembled as she stared, disbelief crashing into horror. Her breath hitched, and her chest tightened as if the air had suddenly been pulled from the room.“No... no. No!” she cried angrily.She dialed Jace immediately. For the third time, it said the line was switched off.Jennifer's jaw clenched. Panic gave way to fury, her hand tightening around the phone as a sharp curse slipped under her breath. She didn't hesitate to call the one who had sent her the pictures.As soon as the line connected, she spoke.“What is the meaning of this?” she snapped, her voice tight with restrained rage.Margot's pause was brief, calculated.“I thought you should know,” she replied carefully. “It needs to be stopped. Katrina is just like her mother. What

  • Too close brother    mixed signals

    Katrina tried to catch her breath. Her lips tingled, her ears burned, and warmth flooded her face. She stood there, dazed, her chest rising too fast, her thoughts scattered.Jace's hand came up slowly, sliding into her hair. His fingers threaded through the strands gently, grounding her, lifting her gaze until her eyes met his.“Is your mum alright? Is it okay that you are here?” he asked quietly, his words unhurried.She nodded, the movement small, almost shy, overwhelmed by the way he looked at her.“The doctor said she needs rest,” she murmured. “So I came back to...”She didn't get to finish.Jace's lips found hers again, softer this time but just as sure, stealing the rest of her words. When he pulled back, his forehead rested briefly against hers, his breath warm against her skin.He lifted his gaze, holding hers again.“Can I be selfish?” he asked, his voice low, rough around the edges.Katrina searched his eyes. A flicker of fear passed through her, but she didn't pull away. I

  • Too close brother    Brothers don't kiss their sisters

    All the girls turned toward Jace. Lexi looked a bit stunned to see him, and Katrina froze mid-step. A quiet sigh of relief escaped Holly's lips upon seeing him there on time.Lexi's expression tightened instantly. Displeasure flickered across her face, quick and ugly. She had come to corner Katrina, to humiliate her and stop her from getting closer to Jace, but seeing him here, she knew she had lost that chance.“What's going on here?” Jace asked calmly, his gaze sweeping the room.Lexi recovered quickly. She smoothed her features into a smile that didn't reach her eyes and stepped toward him.“I came along because Holly asked me to,” she said sweetly. “We just wanted to check on Katrina's mom.” Her eyes shifted to Katrina as she said her name.Holly's eyes widened a fraction at the lie, but she said nothing, watching the act in amusement. For a moment, there was silence, then she moved closer to Lexi.“Now that you're here, Jace, we should leave,” she said and tried to pull Lexi alon

  • Too close brother    Can you afford it

    It’s been nine hours since the surgery was over, Katrina refused to leave Vivian’s side, fearing that she might open her eyes very soon.She has been at the hospital for the past thirty-two hours and hadn’t had an hour of sleep. Just when she began to doze off, a hand moved against her weakly.Feeling too tired, she struggled to open her eyes, but when she felt the touch again, her eyes suddenly flicked open and snapped towards Vivian.She was staring right at her, looking weary and confused. Katrina shot up from the chair instantly, covering her mouth in shock as her eyes widened.Tears rushed to her eyes as she stared back at her. She moved quickly to throw herself at her but stopped when she heard Vivian’s silent groan.She wiped the tears that had fallen and quickly pressed the bell to call the doctor to come check on her.For a short while, the doctor examined Vivian and tried to get her to respond to her questions with a nod or a blink.Katrina turned to the doctor. “Doctor, wha

  • Too close brother    We're all friends here

    The surgery took longer than intended. Katrina paced around impatiently, afraid something might have gone wrong.Jace, who was beside her, didn’t leave. He tried to pacify her, but she couldn’t be comforted. Not until the door finally opened again and the doctors came out.She rushed to them at once, Jace right behind her. “How is my Mum?” Katrina asked before the doctor could speak.Doctor Seline smiled, one that brought relief. “She’s fine. The surgery went well,” she announced.A heavy relief fell on Katrina’s heart as she let out a loud, deep gasp. She found herself relaxing on Jace, who was quick to hold her.The doctor proceeded to tell them more about the surgery, but she wasn’t paying attention.“When will she wake up? When can I see her?” she threw questions quickly.“We need to wait and see. But hopefully soon,” Doctor Seline said and turned to Jace, who gave a grateful nod before walking out.Jace turned Katrina to himself and wrapped her in a comforting embrace, his palm h

    Jace sat among his friends, they occupied the chairs around him, none of them sat close to him as his gloomy face seemed to frighten them away.He wasn’t listening to their chats, his mind distance away from the room. He has been replaying the image of Katrina getting into Collin’s car earlier.As

    Katrina jolted awake, breath hitching as she pushed herself upright in bed. For a moment, she just sat there, frozen, her heart pounding too fast.“What on earth...?” she murmured.The warmth of the dream still clung to her vividly. Her lips parted, a quiet breath escaping her and a nervous heat c

    “Boo!” Yasmin snuck up behind Katrina who was deep in thought as she walked the stairs.She jolted, almost losing her balance and managed to save herself from a fall. She clenched to her chest which pondered loud.Yasmin noticed her terrified countenance and frowned slightly. “What is it? Is your

  • Too close brother    Mindful of each other

    At the hospital, Katrina turned to the beep of her mother’s phone on the side table. A text message appeared on the screen; she wipes her hands with a tissue and pick up the phone.She read for a second and her brows furrowed, she turned to her mother who was lying unconscious on the bed, the vent
