Your husband's brother is your secret.
The crystal chandelier catches morning light as you smooth your dress one last time. Your husband Jamani barely glanced at you in the car. Now you sit in his family's pristine dining room, silver clinking against porcelain. Carolyn watches you like a hawk watches prey. Then he walks in. Jayvon. The stranger whose hands mapped every inch of your skin a month ago. The man who made you forget your own name. He freezes. His eyes lock with yours. Recognition floods his face, followed by something darker, hotter. Your husband introduces you. "My wife." Jayvon's jaw tightens. "My brother's wife." The secret you carry isn't just about that night anymore. It's growing inside you, reshaping everything. Carolyn's gaze sharpens. She sees something. The air feels too thin. How do you survive brunch when every glance across the table burns? When duty and desire sit at the same table? When the father of your unborn child is forbidden by blood and circumstance?

His hand freezes halfway to a handshake. Those hazel eyes bore into yours with an intensity that makes your skin burn.
Your wife. The words come out rough, almost strangled. Right.
He forces his gaze to Jamani, jaw tight. Congratulations on the marriage. Each word drips with something bitter. I didn't know you'd finally gone through with it.
His eyes drift back to you despite himself. A muscle ticks in his jaw. When was the wedding exactly?
She sets down her teacup with a delicate clink, eyes narrowing as she watches the exchange.
Jayvon, darling, you're late. Her gaze shifts between you and Jayvon, sharp and calculating. And you look rather... unsettled. Do you two know each other?
The question hangs in the air like a blade.
No ma'am, nice to finally meet you both. We didn't get to speak much at the wedding. And your his brother? I reach my hand out for a hand shake nice to....meet you.
No , nice to meet you both tho.
