“Thanks,” I say, trying to squash those bitter thoughts. Tonight is mine. I’m not going to let doubts cloud my mind.

“Scarlett, congratulate your brother,” Jessica orders firmly as Indigo makes a gagging face as Dad turns the camera to the girl – no woman, cosied up in the armchair.

My breath catches at the sight of her side profile. Her red hair covers her face as she reads the book in her hand. She’s in some tiny leather shorts and again with those fishnets… Fuck.

Her legs are tucked up on the chair, crossed as she bounces her foot that hangs in the air lightly, only giving me an even better view of that sexy ass.

“Congrats,” she says in her sexy, melodious voice. Damn, even her voice has changed but... her tone is anything but happy for me.

“Love you too,” I shoot back, making her stick her middle finger up at me. I smirk as Jessica frowns and the camera swings back on Dad and Indigo. Both are already planning some big family trip for us to go on when I get back, but I’m unable to focus, my mind lingering on those sexy thighs.

Yeah, I need to get laid and stop thinking about my sexy-as-hell stepsister.

“Well, I’ll let you guys go. I’m partying with the boys. They’re waiting.” I smirk.

“Oh, and where are you partying?” Dad asks.

Really?

“Probably at a whorehouse or a strip club. Right, Elijah?” her know-it-all voice comes.

Well, she ain’t wrong.

“Jealous, Red?” I taunt her mockingly.

“Of you? Please, I’d be jealous of a piece of turd before I’m jealous of you,” she scoffs.

“Scarlett!” Jessica scolds.

“They’re just messing around, Jess. It’s fine,” Dad consoles his woman.

“Yeah, well, I’m heading inside. See you guys in a couple of days.” I hang up and slip the phone into my pocket before I head back inside, downing the rest of my glass.

Entering the VIP area again, I smirk as I spot that sexy blond step off the stage, and I walk over to her. “Hey beautiful, how much for a private show?”

“Everything’s paid for…” she whispers seductively, placingher hand on my arm as her eyes trail over me appreciatively.

I curl my finger under her chin and lean in.

“Perfect then… how about you go grab a few of your girls and we head to the back?”

“Sounds like a plan, handsome,” she says, biting her glossy lip.

“Make sure they’re petite and curvy. I like my girls with an ass.” I wink at her, watching her saunter off, my dick throbbing in my pants.

Oh yeah… this is the life.

This Family of Mine

Scarlett

Istep out of the shower, wrapping my towel around myself as I stare at the second door in the bathroom. A door that leads into Elijah’s room.

I better start getting into a routine of locking that door. He hasn’t been home for nearly two years thanks to him deciding not to come for the summer holidays and I might have just gotten a little too relaxed.

Originally, when we moved into this home after Dad and Mama got married, Elijah had thrown a fit about us coming into his mom’s place, and I totally got that. We stumbled on this pack and were given a home, and then the Alpha took an interest in Mama. He had recently lost his mate, and he found some solace with her company, but it wasn’t easy for Elijah.

Dad and Mama were two broken souls who became one, but Elijah couldn’t understand that, so a few of the rooms in the house have remained locked as Elijah refused to let anyone invade his mother’s places. Dad loves Mama, but he will always hold a special place in his heart for Elijah’s mother, something that Elijah doesn’t seem to see.
