Some Lines Shouldn’t be Crossed
“Stop it, Hayden. Can’t you see how scared she is of you already?” Harvey said as he tried to calm
Hayden down.
I could tell right away that no amount of effort was going to succeed in calming Hayden down at this
point.
“Why are you so soft when it comes to women?” Hayden snapped.
“Well, naturally because they’re women? If I’m harsh on them, I’ll end up killing them all…” Harvey
replied perhaps a little too honestly.
“How many times do I have to tell you to stay away from her? She’s not your woman,” Hayden retorted
heatedly.
“And she’s yours? How so?” Harvey asked in return as he cocked his head curiously to the side. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“Harvey…” Hayden muttered.
“Sleeping with her, keeping her locked up here, calling her yours...such an easy and irresponsible thing
to say…” Harvey started lecturing his brother.
“Harvey, please…” I whispered pleadingly for Harvey to stock provoking Hayden when I finally found
my voice.
“How I choose to deal with my woman has nothing to do with you. If you’re so free, you should be trying
to wake Amelia up. This all happened because you didn’t push any leash on her. If you kept her locked
up, she wouldn’t be in a coma right now!”
“Hayden…” I whispered his name in shock.
How can he say something like that to his brother?
Suddenly, it felt like the temperate in the room dropped my multiple degrees. There were not one but
two snowstorms in the room now. One look at Harvey and I could tell that he wasn’t the person that he
was before Hayden spoke those words. He was beyond angry and understandably so. Kill me now.
Why am I stuck in between these two brothers.
No, please…I don’t want to see Harvey’s real form. I must have caught a glimpse of how scary he
could be the first time that we met, and I didn’t want to witness anymore of that.
“Some lines shouldn’t be crossed…” Harvey said, and his tone was soft and gentle, yet it sounded so
deadly.
I felt the warmth of Harvey’s hand on my shoulder before I realized that he was standing right behind
me. His touch was gentle like he was handling me with care, but I had no idea what he was thinking
anymore. I could feel Hayden eyes on the hand that Harvey had on my shoulder, and I could tell that he
wasn’t pleased.
“You’re old enough now to understand that, aren’t you?” Harvey asked rhetorically.
“You’re the one who doesn’t understand. I told you to leave her alone. Why did you have to take her
outside?” Hayden hissed through clenched teeth.
“Women should be protected. I wanted to give her freedom…” Harvey said as his hand clenched
slightly on my shoulder.
“At the cost of her life? What a joke…” Hayden retorted.
“I don’t think Malissa likes having a collar around her neck or a leash restraining her or leading her
around…” Harvey said, and his fingers moved to caressed the side of my neck.
Harvey…what are you doing?
“Isn’t that right, Malissa?” Harvey whispered so close to my ear that I could feel the warmth of his
breath against my ear.
“Harvey…” I called his name softly as I struggled to figure out how to deal with the situation.
Why are these two even fighting to begin with? How am I supposed to talk to Hayden when he’s in
such a rotten mood?
What is happening?
My body froze as my heart skipped a beat at the sensation of something warm and wet running along
the side of my neck. What is going on?
It took a moment for reality to sink in. It can’t be, why is Harvey licking my neck like this?
“Malissa…” Harvey whispered my name seductively before his lips started sucking quite loudly on my
neck.
“What the fuck…” Hayden growled.
Slight pain shot through my wrists and then my arms as I was pulled up from the sofa and away from
Harvey. I landed with a thud against Hayden’s hard frame and his arms wrapped around me
protectively.
This is bad…now they’re really going to fight…
“Do I have to explain myself?” Harvey asked casually.
His blue eyes looked at me and then at Hayden as he licked his lips as if to savor the remaining taste
on his lips. Why did Harvey do that? Was he just trying to get back at Hayden for saying those
offensive things against Amelia?
“What games are you playing right now?” Hayden asked, his tone dark.
“Games? Not at all. I’ve thought about this for a while now…” Harvey said as I felt his eyes caressing
the length of my body.
Hayden must have felt the target of his brother’s gaze as well because he pulled me a little roughly
behind him. Why is Harvey looking at me like that?
“Stop what you’re thinking, Harvey,” Hayden warned.
“It’s too late. I’m already done thinking. If Amelia doesn’t wake up, maybe I should just marry Malissa
instead. The old man will probably think that is a good idea as well. We can get married and make
loads of adorable looking babies,” Harvey said before he smiled a charming smile my way.
What on earth is Harvey saying?!
He’s joking, right? He has to be…
“Harvey!” Hayden screamed his brother’s name so loudly that I thought that the walls were going to
collapse all around us.
His scream echoed loudly in the room, and I was shocked. I’ve never heard Hayden scream like that
before.
‘Hayden’s the real crazy one. Push him to the limit and he’ll end up exploding…’
He’s not really planning to push Hayden to the limit, is he?
Harvey, just what are you thinking right now…
“Don’t worry. It doesn’t bother me at all that you’ve slept with Hayden before. It doesn’t make me want
you any less…” Harvey said as his eyes twinkled at me.
That is not the issue here!
The desire in his eyes…is that just an act…or…
