Chapter 1

My stepbrother and I are the main characters in a step-siblings romance novel.

After realizing this, I avoided him like the plague to stop these inappropriate feelings.

However, he pinned me against the kitchen counter, biting my neck, and growled, "You can only love me."

The day Jack brought his girlfriend home, I had a ridiculous dream.

In the dream, I was the female lead in a step-siblings romance novel, and my stepbrother Jack was the male lead.

Jack's girlfriend, Emily, was the antagonist in this story.

In the book, Jack had liked me since childhood, and a strong sense of guilt haunted him throughout his adolescence.

He had sneaked into my room countless times to kiss the corner of my mouth while I was asleep, and had woken up sweating profusely in the middle of the night, calling out my name.

To let go of these abnormal feelings, Jack agreed to date Emily, who had a crush on him for six years.

At this point in the story, I woke up from my dream.

Frightened by the absurd scenes in my dream, it took me a while to calm down.

Jack liking me? How could that be possible?

I recalled Jack's cold attitude towards me in daily life and shook my head slightly.

But even so, I still felt uncomfortable.

When I was young and naive, I did have a crush on Jack.

I remember being encouraged by my best friend to knock on his door late at night, only to see the impatience and disgust in his eyes when he saw me.

So, those secrets were gradually buried deep in my heart, rotting away.
