Jane decided to wave the card at him. “Yeah that card can fund the expenses of your entire family if you want”
He sighed and nodded slowly.
“You will not back out of the deal, right?”
Hope glimmered in his eyes despite the threat he felt of following the most fearsome alpha heir.
“Here” Jane pulled out a pen and paper and scribbled my number on it.
“She is the lady boss here with the card so that’s her number.” She even called herself from my phone and held the screen in front of him.
“The phone number matches with what I gave you. Now, can we please hurry up?”
The driver still didn’t seem very convinced with the very risky idea yet he slowly looked at the slightly faded photo of his granddaughter and finally nodded.
“Okay. But if anyone asks, I was kidnapped by you two.”
Relief washed over me as he finally turned the car in the manor’s direction and began driving.
We sat in the back seat in anxious silence, my nerves a jumbled knot.
We reached the mansion and the driver parked the car under the shade of a large tree, hiding us well yet giving us a clear view of the mansion gates.
“Okay, now we wait until Sienna tells us which car to follow,” Jane said and began chatting with the driver.
I looked at my phone that had no messages or calls from him. Connor had just disappeared from the mansion after coldly announcing that the session was over for tonight.
I looked down at the ridiculous dress I was wearing and imagined his face when he would see me. It was a risky outfit for sure and had far more skin on display as opposed to the matching outfits we wore before.
Jane had spent quite a lot of time dolling me up with makeup and thankfully, the bite marks had faded a lot too so just a dab of foundation and they disappeared from my skin.
What didn’t disappear though was the memory that rose in my head when my fingers brushed against those marks idly.
My dress had ridden up but I kept tugging it down. Jane kept slapping my hand away and telling me to stop fidgeting like a guilty person.
Time crawled and my nerves frayed. I half listened to Jane’s conversation with the driver closed my eyes and fallen asleep when Jane suddenly shrieked.
“Sienna! Get up!”

The Wrong Brother’s Temptation
She shook me hard by grabbing both my shoulders at once. “Look” She pointed in the front.
linked furiously. “What?”
“Is that him?”
A sleek, polished car purred out of the mansion gates. It was not the one Connor usually drove and not even the one I saw him arrive in this morning.
My stomach dropped at the thought that he was pulling no stops to impress someone and was whipping/ out one special car after another for this mystery woman.
I tried to keep my face neutral because I knew that Jane was already watching me sideways.
I had seen that car in his garage. It was him.
I only nodded at her and she slapped the old man’s shoulder a few times.
“That’s our target, come on, get moving”
The still baffled old man nodded hastily and turned the ignition on. He still didn’t know why we were following Connor and I doubted Jane had given him a reasonable answer.
“Jane, we aren’t in a crime thriller. Can you please relax?”
“No but I like this thrill and excitement for you.”
The driver kept eyeing us weirdly from the rear view mirror.
“But just dont throw a fit if you see him being touchy feely with this mystery woman.”
“Lower your voice!” I whispered angrily at her but the driver heard it and seemed to relax a little.
“Oh so miss here thinks her man is cheating on her?”
“Not really” I replied in the same breath as Jane muttered. “Something like that”
“Jane!” I stomped my foot on her but she only winced and gave me a wounded look.
“What you want to tell him about the fake da…”
I widened my eyes in alarm and placed my hand on her mouth to stop her from spilling the beans.
The old man’s entire demeanor changed instantly and he began tapping on the steering wheel, humming some tune to himself.
“I don’t keep up with the lives of rich people and gossip but if you catch him with another woman, beat the shit out of him”
“What?”
We both stopped squabbling for a second and stared at him and his unexpected piece of advice.
“Love brings jealousy and possessiveness so its always imperative for both the man and the wor

repeatedly show each other that they hold the topmost position in each other’s lives. Only that can make your partner feel safe and comfortable with friends of the opposite gender.”
“Brilliant piece of advice” Jane nodded her head, shooting me a side eye.
There was no love in between us, just… hot sex and…yeah just that.
“Tell your man tonight that he is the king of your heart and see him melt right in front of you”
“Yeah I have a feeling she loves having him on top of her” she muttered under her breath but not low enough that I didn’t hear it.
JANE!!”
I slapped her shoulder that earned me a chuckle from her.
“Focus on the task at hand”
She nodded. “Yeah, Mr driver, please maintain a safe distance. We don’t want to be seen”
We kept following Connor as traffic thickened around us.
At one point the sleek car slipped through a light and we nearly lost it.
Jane shouted loud enough to burst my eardrums and the driver slammed the brakes hard, the car making
a loud screeching sound before it bumped into a minivan in front of us.
