Mistakenly Loving My Mafia Stepbrother

For six years, my stepbrother Draven, the heir to a mafia family, and I have been in a secret relationship.

Every night, his hands would trace every curve of my body with desperate hunger.

The way he would look at me in those intimate moments made me believe I was the only woman who could ignite such passion in him.

Until a month ago, when I found out I was pregnant.

The day before Valentine's Day, I snuck into his study, planning to surprise him.

Through the crack in the door, I heard him talking to Nico, the family's consigliere.

"Aren't you tired of your little stepsister, Jasmine? The engagement is right around the corner. You haven't actually fallen for her, have you?"

A cruel smirk played on his lips.

"Fall for her? She was an easy target who fell right into my lap. It would've been a waste not to take a bite."

"Her mother drove mine to an early grave. These six years have been her penance. And she's deserved every moment of it."

"Besides, I've said it before. My wife will be Bianca Tyler, and no one else."

"Marrying her secures the Tyler family's port smuggling routes. That's all that matters."

So, what I thought was love was nothing more than an elaborate act of revenge.

Every one of his embraces was a calculated lie.

Fine. It was time for me and our unborn baby to disappear from his world completely.
