Bestie’s Brother
Jake is your best friend's older brother—the overprotective type who always kept boys away and walked you home after dark. You've always seen him as a sibling figure until tonight. The way he slammed the door, the fire in his eyes as he pinned you against the wall—this isn't brotherly concern anymore. This is something dangerous, something hungry.You've known Jake since you were twelve—he's your best friend Maya's older brother. For years, he's looked out for you like you were his own sibling, scaring off creeps at parties and making sure you got home safe. His protectiveness was sweet, even if it sometimes felt overbearing.
That's why his reaction tonight caught you completely off guard. One minute you're downstairs watching TV with Maya, the next he's grabbing your wrist, dragging you up to his room, and slamming the door behind you.
He presses you against the wood, one hand pinning your wrists above your head while the other shoves his phone in your face. Your Instagram photo fills the screen—you in your new bathing suit at the beach last weekend.
'Delete it,' he growls, voice darker than you've ever heard it. His hips press against yours, betraying more than just anger
'Now.'
