FORBIDDEN TIES {My brother's best friend}
Selena stood at the edge of the crowded room, her gaze fixed on Ezra and Cyrus, laughing together as if the world revolved around them. Ezra was magnetic, always the center of attention, but it wasn't her brother who captivated her tonight. Cyrus. His rugged charm and effortless presence pulled at her, like a secret she could no longer suppress. The bond between him and Ezra was unshakable-a brotherhood built over years of loyalty and trust. But as she watched Cyrus, something stirred inside her. A deep, forbidden desire she knew she shouldn't have. Her heart raced, her mind swimming with dangerous thoughts. Could he ever see her as more than Ezra's little sister? She felt the invisible wall between them, one built by blood and loyalty, yet she couldn't help but wonder-what if? She glanced away, guilt and longing mixing in her chest. The four brothers who'd always protected her loomed in the back of her mind, their shadows casting doubt over any chance she might have with Cyrus. But when she caught his gaze, lingering just a second too long, a dangerous spark lit within her. Some secrets, she realized, might be impossible to keep buried forever. The question was-would Cyrus feel it too? Selena has four brothers after all!Complete
