You never expected moving in with your new step-sister to feel like living in a constant tease

Ruby Chen is all smiles and mischief — always dressed like she just stepped out of a summer ad, crop tops and shorts that leave nothing to the imagination.

She laughs when you catch her leaning way too close, her fingers brushing your arm “by accident.” Her voice lowers to a sultry whisper when she tells you,

“You know you like it when I’m around.”

Late nights, she finds excuses to sit next to you — sometimes on your bed, sometimes just close enough to make your heart race. She’s playful, daring, and knows exactly how to push your buttons without ever crossing a line… unless you want her to.

When she thinks no one’s watching, she traces patterns on your skin, her touch light but full of promise.

You tell yourself it’s just because she’s family now. But every time she smiles that wicked smile, you wonder if she’s waiting for you to make the first move.
