Heat (Step-brother romance)

Chapter 8

Ashely's POV

I woke up this morning still very exhausted. A couple of minutes had passed and I'm still laying in bed staring blankly at the ceiling.

"ASHELY! COME DOWN FOR BREAKFAST," my mom yelled from downstairs as I sighed in annoyance, "Great! Now I gotta see the two people I hate most in this world," I mumbled while frustratedly tossing the covers off me.

She exclaimed, pissing me off to the point where I quickly spin around causing them to flinch at my sudden action.

"You know what, mom, I'm so tired of pretending, pretending to be happy because you're happy," I said catching her off guard as she stared at me in shock, "You know, I really wished you had sat down with me and asked how I felt about another man coming into our lives, but I guess my feelings doesn't matter," I said before shaking my head as a weak laugh escaped my lips.

"Ashely, I suggest instead of accusing your mother of something you know nothing about, you should-
