《My Brothers Best Friend》Chapter 31 // Gentlemanly Behaviour
Advertisement
Annabelle's POV:
I woke up to a door being closed. I rolled around and realised I had fallen asleep with Carter talking about sweet nothings. The sink began running and in no time Carter came out of the bathroom. He was shirtless which instantly took my breath away as he ruffled the hair on his head and flexed his muscles, he then yawned sexily as he looked over at me. A smile lit up on his face as he realised I was awake and crawled into bed next to me, "morning baby" he said with a smirk, I rolled my eyes as I pushed him away from me, "morning to you too". I sat up and stretched, I looked over at Carter who seemed way too involved in his phone. I jumped on top of him and knocked the phone out of his hand, "I like where this is going" he said winking at me, I scrunched up my nose and rolled off of him, "just wanted to remind you that you have company".
"Damn" he said as quietly as a whisper, I turned over to him with a raised eyebrow and confused expression, "the way you scrunch your nose like that is irresistible" he said flicking my nose. I laughed and rolled onto my bum, "I need to get ready" and I heard him sigh little "do we have to?"
"Yes"
"We could just stay right here"
"Or we could get dressed"
"you're no fun Walters"
"more nicknames?"
"you betcha"
And with that I threw my head into my hands, "what's up" he asked stroking my back, I sighed and turned to him, "I have to get my things from my room". He sat up instantly and said almost too seriously "I'll come". I shook my head and stood up, I didn't think that was best for anyone right now. "Too bad" he said cockily, I raised my eyebrow at his as he said, "I didn't ask if I could come I told you I'm coming" and with that he threw a shirt on and met me at the door. 'There goes my shirtless hunk' I thought to myself and I saw a huge grin grow on his face. "What?" I asked inquisitively, he raised an eyebrow and said, "my shirtless hunk" and I felt my feet freeze. My mouth opened in shock as I asked the question I already knew the answer to, "did I say that out loud?" he wrapped his arm around my shoulders and cockily said, "you betcha baby".

I walked to the door and paused a little I turned back and expected Carter to be leaning on a wall just watching or had even gone back but he was still behind me which put a little smile on my face. I knocked twice gently kind of hoping that no-one would answer but then the door opened. It was Matt shirtless but still in his boxers. I furrowed my eyebrows at him and spoke coldly, "I need to get my stuff" I barged past him, he tried to grab my arms but I saw Carter stand in between us with a raised eyebrow. "Annabelle I'm sorry" he said regretfully, I just rolled my eyes and went to pack up my stuff. I walked past the bed and saw Elizabeth silently asleep in it so I just threw my bits in the bag and with another saddened look from Matt I walked out. I let out a shaky sigh as I felt tears brim my eyes and I put my bags down as the door closed to wipe away any formed tears. Carter gave me a quick hug from behind and then picked up my stuff, I went to tell him not to but he beat me to it, "hush, what kind of gentleman would I be if I didn't carry your stuff?". I smiled at him as we walked to the room.

War of Seasons
Dorothea Atlin is the young, apathetic leader of the neutral territory of Sirpo, a chilly land hovering above the continuously warring factions of Sacer and Ghuria, whose devastating magics have ravaged their people and lands time and time again. Following a shocking attack and a cruel deception, Dorothea grows her conscience and takes up arms, using her self-destructive ability to manipulate the flow of time to ensure Sacer’s victory. Her growing understanding of war and the two factions is guided by Iree Nobelis, the determined and enthralling commander of Sacer’s forces, Ariana Kingfisher, a steely swordswoman of mixed Ghurian and Sacerian descent, and Rhys Tamlin, a kind but haunted soldier who goes to challenge Dorothea’s self-imposed celibacy and join her on a mutual journey of healing from the tragic legacies of the Atlin family and wars between the nations. Meanwhile, Dorothea’s only friend and deserter from the Sacerian military, Shark Olyen, returns to their homeland to face the family that disowned them and finds more than they bargained for in meeting Cerid Creed, a noble whose duty to his people clashes with his desires in romance and in life, much like Shark’s did long before. As their developing or preexisting loves and differing convictions on how to achieve peace create rifts between these major players, Dorothea experiences a personal revolution that leads her to fight for what she believes is right, no matter the cost. A slow-burn story that takes time setting up the psychology and motivations of characters for explosive payoff later down the line. Cover by Ben Arisson, who is also a wonderful author on this website!
