To Hate My Stepbrother

Ava’s POV

I hated the fact that I had to leave Maldives, we got a cab and soon boarded our plane to where our new house was located.

It was a long flight but soon we got to the city and we had to board another cab home. It was going to be my first time in the house and I couldn’t wait to see what surprise was waiting for me.

“Just tell me what the surprise is?” I asked as I held Mason, begging him to give me reasons why he wouldn’t let me come to the house until it was time to move finally.

“If I tell you or show you the picture of the house then where will the surprise be?” He asked and I pouted, I hated to admit it but he was right, it wouldn’t be a surprise anymore if he showed it to me.

The cab pulled over and I could swear that I’d almost passed out when I saw the house. It was not only bigger than where we were staying before, it was even more beautiful and I blinked multiple times so that I’ll be sure that this wasn’t a dream.

“It’s so beautiful.” I gasped as I took steps closer to the house. It looked like a mansion from outside and I loved the fact that the exterior view was so satisfying.

It had a huge garden and there was also a gazebo as I was gawking at the exterior. Mason came to stand in front of me with a wide smile as he brought out a car key.

“That car is yours.” He affirmed and I could hear my heart beating as I took the key from him. It was so surreal and I really can’t believe the fact that Mason was spoiling me this much.

Throwing myself at him, Mason spun me around while I smooched his face with lots of kisses and appreciation.

I was really happy with him and everything.

After a while outside, we made our way in and it was magical, ten times better than the exterior. I felt like I’d just entered the White House because of the color of the paintings on the wall.

It was white with touches of other colours to make it seem like there was a drawing of flowers on the wall, the frames on the walls were also beautiful and I remembered I got a painting of Mona Lisa when we were in Maldives.

“That’ll be for our room.” Mason smiled like he already knew what I was thinking. There was a long sofa and other small ones.

There was also a stuffed animal by the side of one of the sofas and a beautiful table in the middle. Every colour blended and the star designs on the ceilings were so gorgeous and I just knew that they glow in the dark.

It was extremely romantic and just the sight of everything caused me to blink back the tears that threatened to let themselves free as butterflies flapped their wings in my stomach.

Turning to face Mason, I kissed him again in sheer happiness before continuing the rest of the house tour. There was a balcony where I could not only see the outside view but most of the city.

Beautiful was an understatement for what Mason had done with this house. Looking out the window, I didn’t hold back the tears and let them flow freely.

I was so skeptical about moving but now that we’re here in our new house, my house, the feeling was just like a dream and I still couldn’t believe my eyes. I could hear the beating of my heart like it was going to jump out of my chest and I held it to avoid that.

Shuffling through my bag to find my phone, I called Nicole out of happiness and I couldn’t wait to share this with as many people that I know would be so happy for me.

“It’s so beautiful and honestly beautiful doesn’t even describe it well enough.” I said into the phone while Nicole laughed in happiness and listened to all I had to say.

Tears of joy trickled down my cheeks as I told Nicole everything about the house and she also didn’t stop telling me about how she’d already told me that I’ll be happy and she was happy for me.

“Are you crying?” Mason asked, pulling me into him as he kissed me and I shook my head negatively as I sniffled.

He told me he got a call from his secretary so he has to leave for now and we shared a kiss before he left. After Mason had gone, I FaceTimed my mother so I could show her the new house.

“It’s so big and beautiful too.” My mother gasped as I gave her a tour of the new house over our video call and I couldn’t have agreed with her any better.

I showed her the entire house and soon we had to end the call but I promised to call her back as soon as I could. Ending the call, I made dinner for Mason and I before going to the sitting room to wait for Mason to be home.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Yawning, I curled up like a ball on the beautiful couch and I also held the soft cozy pillow on it close to my chest as I closed my eyes to take a nap before Mason got back home.

Smiling, I rolled on the beautiful couch and I was expecting myself to fall to the ground until I opened my eyes and almost jumped out of the bed while Mason laughed at me. I have no idea how I got here.

“How’d I get here?” I asked Mason who was having a lot of fun seeing the fear in my eyes.

“I brought you in here, you fell asleep on the couch.” He responded amidst laughter. Slapping his shoulder gently, we both made our way downstairs to make breakfast together.

We soon finished eating and before I knew what was happening, Mason lifted me off my feet and made his way upstairs.

“You know what would be more fun?” He asked in his seductive voice, “hearing you scream my name in our new house.”
