Chapter 1: Introduction
As soon as Brother heard the knock on the door, he felt a rush of excitement coursing through his veins. It had been ten years since he had last seen his little sister, and he couldn't wait to embrace her and catch up on everything she'd been doing in the past decade.
He ran to the door and opened it, ready to give her a big hug. But when he saw her standing there, he was taken aback by how much she had changed.
She was curvier than he remembered, with long blonde hair cascading down her back. Her blue eyes sparkled with mischief, and a playful smile played on her lips.
Little Sister took a step forward and wrapped her arms around her brother, squeezing him tightly. "It's so good to be back home," she said, her voice thick with emotion.
Brother couldn't help but feel a twinge of guilt at the thoughts running through his head. He had always thought of his little sister as just that - his baby sister.
But now that she was standing before him, all grown up and incredibly sexy, he couldn't help but feel attracted to her in ways he never had before. He could still hear her voice in his head, reminding him that she was his sibling, but the physical desire he felt was undeniable.
As they settled into the living room, Little Sister noticed how much the apartment had changed. The furniture was still hand-me-downs, but they now had a worn-in, comfortable feel.
The smell of old books mixed with a hint of dust filled the air, along with the faint scent of cinnamon and coffee coming from the kitchen.
Little Sister took a seat on the couch, looking around the room as if seeing everything for the first time. Brother sat on the chair opposite her, feeling nervous and unsure about how to act around her. He tried to make small talk, asking about her studies and the people she had met at university, but she seemed distracted and distant.
She finally broke the silence, turning to him with a seductive smile. "So, I heard you've been staying here alone for the past few years," she said, her voice low and husky.
Brother nodded, trying to hide his embarrassment at the thought of how lonely he had been without her.
"Yeah, it's been hard at times," he admitted. "But I'm glad you're back. I missed you."
Little Sister leaned forward, placing her hand on Brother's knee. He felt his heart race at the sudden closeness between them.
"I missed you too, big brother," she said, her voice soft and sultry.
"It's been so long, and I've missed you so much."
Brother felt his heart pounding in his chest as he looked into her gorgeous blue eyes. He wanted nothing more than to kiss her, to hold her in his arms and feel her body pressed against his.
But he couldn't. She was his little sister, and he knew it would be wrong to act on his desires.
Little Sister pulled her hand away from his knee, sensing his hesitation.
She stood up, walking over to the window and gazing out at the city skyline. "I understand, big brother," she said softly. "You're just as protective of me now as you were when we were kids."
Brother couldn't bring himself to look at her. He felt guilty for feeling the way he did, for wanting her in a way that went beyond the bounds of brotherly love. He was grateful for her understanding, but he didn't know what to say next.
The only sound in the room was the ticking of the mantel clock.
