Scharline stood in front of the mirror, bathed in the dim light of the room.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74nfW6jMP1
She was wearing a gray, cropped tank top—its loose fabric barely clinging to her shoulders, brushing lightly against her skin. The material hugged her body just enough to hint at her shape, revealing more than it concealed. Her red-and-white checkered pajama bottoms had slipped slightly below her waist, the elastic band resting lower, accentuating the curve of her hips and the slender line of her waist. Every contour of her body moved with a natural, soft harmony.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJP2JDY99m
As she raised her hands above her head and gently clasped her wrists, the elegant and supple lines of her figure became even more pronounced. When her shoulders stretched, faint shadows of her muscles surfaced beneath her skin in delicate traces. A few strands of blonde hair cascaded down the side of her neck, highlighting the sharp angles of her face. Her lips were slightly parted, her gaze fixed directly on the mirror.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjw0A3d9Rj8
There was a question lingering in this moment.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoheOTmsbwM
Lately… things had been changing.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXq6dWqcIU
She examined her reflection more closely.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kv2sbuthX
Lisa’s words from that night still echoed in her mind: "If you don’t know how to use your mind, at least learn how to use your body."
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUU2Wm6wYO
Those words felt like a challenge. She wasn’t sure whether to believe in herself or in what others told her. But the uncertainty within her had already begun unraveling.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTwntvctVL
Her eyes narrowed slightly.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOfnHwKqoW
If Braun was interested in her, could she turn it into an advantage? And what about Ethan?
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVmYH5QHtz
He had always been there. Yet he acted as if he never noticed.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsNE7LoLSj
Scharline took a deep breath, lowering her hands to her waist with deliberate slowness. Her fingers traced the elastic band of her pajama bottoms, pulling it up slightly before letting it go. It wasn’t just a movement—it was the outward expression of a thought, testing how far she was willing to go.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpt756NWILO
She turned back to her reflection.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3qQw5Eh3S
She was no longer the innocent girl they thought she was.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZQZipgSAW
They looked at her and assumed they saw one person, but… another woman was awakening inside.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUAADAe1Za
Finally, with a faint smile, she whispered to her reflection: "Maybe it’s time."
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFj1HcSZ6q
Breaking Point
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyLkBitPlv
Scharline remained still in front of the mirror. Her expression was unreadable—neither satisfaction nor hesitation… just an unshaped, undefined feeling stirring within her. A challenge, the strange thrill of self-discovery, and perhaps the seductive confidence that came with taking control.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeU92vS8It
She inhaled slowly, her chest rising and falling.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MIMvzequi
The mirror didn’t just show a reflection—it felt as though someone was watching her.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlDz83prZm
Raising a hand, she ran her long fingers through her hair, sliding from the roots down to the silky strands that framed her neck. She paused there, feeling the warmth of her skin against her fingertips. Her awareness of her body was sharper than usual.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhOrhRQ0Ko
She studied her reflection more intently. The curves, the posture of her body, the slight slope of her shoulders, the narrowness of her waist… It felt as though she was looking at herself from a distance.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdpsnuCGFY
Lately, she had noticed. The way people looked at her. The way their eyes lingered on her.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJlRnBctUq
And more importantly, the power she had over it.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywHK9CS0V4
But how should she use that power? As a tool? Or as a weapon?
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0nCQfIWzW
She murmured to herself, without resisting the thought:
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfpr2EQvJ4
"Why not?"
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gOb2mwETq
The idea burned like a spark in her mind.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaq64g5fw1
Without a second of hesitation, Scharline reached for her phone. Her fingers glided across the screen, opening the camera. She scanned her reflection through the lens, adjusting her expression—more alluring, more inviting.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi50k9Hhuvr
She controlled the depth in her eyes, the curve of her lips, the poise of her shoulders.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7HEccprZX
First picture… second… third…
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOHXo9txME
With each shot, she studied how the light touched her skin, how it defined the contours of her body.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHYu02ro5Z
But the last one… She made it bolder.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lgR8T7aYY
Taking a deep breath, she looked at the screen. For a moment, she hesitated. But something inside her urged her to take it one step further.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0cOk43cTZ
She began typing a message to Lisa.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2KbZBnBvv
🖤 "Save me a spot as a future model, Lisa."
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zOv6M0Ah1
She attached the photos and pressed send.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtMRmHwKPN
For a few seconds, she held the phone in her hand, closing her eyes. Pressing send felt like crossing an invisible boundary.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqciyjn6fIv
Just seconds later…
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4Ep74E7JF
💋 "Girl, you were born to be a star!"
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZN4IbOg6c
Lisa’s message came with a flood of laughing emojis.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CVnDjNwG2
Scharline reread the message before turning off her phone.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sggBcSeDh
She knew Lisa meant it as a joke. But the words left a question lingering in her mind.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41HbPo6l3e
Maybe Lisa was right. Maybe an entirely new path was unfolding for Scharline.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZl9VFpwWq3
She looked at her reflection in the mirror once more.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8g4SFwjIe
And this time, she didn’t see uncertainty… She smiled with a clear sense of determination.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2wXAds31Z
As a faint smile played on her lips, her fingers reached for the hem of her gray tank top. The fabric lifted in a slow, delicate motion, slipping over her head and onto the floor. Her half-loosened pajama bottoms clung loosely to her hips. As she raised her arms again, the dim light cast shadows over her toned muscles.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnDs2ARu43
She paused. Her skin was still warm from the heat gathered in her room overnight. But now… she knew all those thoughts would wash away under the water.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoPkDWSnzp
Taking a deep breath, she stepped out of the room, her bare feet meeting the cold floor, sending a shiver through her body. She moved towards the bathroom, a strange sense of calm settling inside her. She pushed the door open, stepping into the soft contrast between the cold tiles and the misty warmth of the shower glass.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoVkcog4x2
She turned on the faucet.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblxugidlg0
As the first drops hit the ceramic surface, her fingers undid the thin straps, letting her pajamas slide to the floor. She stepped into the shower, the warmth of the water touching her toes before enveloping her in a soothing embrace.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ692nGXMzaa
She tilted her head back, closing her eyes as the water caressed every inch of her skin. Her wet hair clung to her back as her mind emptied for a brief moment.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXWcxU575g
Wrapped in steam, she picked up her phone, its bright screen reflecting in her eyes. Her fingertips were still wet, droplets trailing down as she touched the screen. The phone was slippery in her damp hands, but the message holding her attention was Braun’s.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhckhh2qJ9S
"Good morning, did you sleep well?"
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDl08trchS
Braun…
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8n28C862zy
As she stared at the glowing words, conflicting thoughts surfaced.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLibLo1KAe
Braun’s intentions were clear. He always moved like a hunter—casual, arrogant, and confident in what he wanted.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvepUAyi4mq
But Scharline?
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMf9sGcE0I
For her, Braun was something uncertain. One moment, he intrigued her. The next, he repelled her. Some days, she enjoyed the way his gaze lingered on her. Other days, she despised seeing through his games.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSux3e4Fkg
This strange push and pull made everything feel unbalanced.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIyBBJ8v0Y
Her fingers hovered over the keyboard. Should she play along or remain indifferent?
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkSi5MMCRw
Finally, with the hint of a smirk, she typed:
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYHnvg0sT0
"Not bad. But don’t expect me to say I was dreaming of you."
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfJfqaufFG
She pressed send, feeling as though she had both drawn him in and set a boundary.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnf8svXbwHM
Placing her phone down on the counter, she took another deep breath and turned back to the shower.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uZBthpoUy
The water was still running, steam wrapping around the bathroom. She stepped forward, the warmth of the tiles seeping into her feet. As the hot drops cascaded over her shoulders, she tilted her head back and closed her eyes.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUMotkj4SG
Braun’s message echoed somewhere in her mind, but she pushed it away.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bf7haLR8A
Soap slipped through her fingers as she ran her hands along her arms, then over her shoulders. With the warm water heightening her senses, every drop melted tension from her muscles.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiEoPiFmMd
Opening her eyes again, she barely recognized her reflection in the misty glass.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wGgSpid2m
She knew what Braun was thinking. His intentions were obvious.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGjD5dMC8F
But Scharline…
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMauUQGnns
She wasn’t sure where she stood in this game.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPJV26H2GG
Running her fingers through her wet hair, she took another deep breath as the water cascaded down her neck and shoulders like a delicate veil.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMs4THyoDYV
For now, there was no need to think.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmC6aAkjm1
For now, she just wanted to enjoy the warmth of the water.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTscsVg6fDL
Beyond the Steam
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniVvtcoONZ
After spending several minutes under the warm water, Scharline reached for the faucet and turned it off. Dense steam filled the bathroom, completely fogging up the mirrors. She took a deep breath and wiped away the condensation with her hand, but her reflection still appeared hazy.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCduHPVyhRt
Slowly, she picked up her robe and wrapped it around her body. The fabric clung to her damp skin, still warm from the shower. The soft, loose texture of the white robe hugged her moist body, its upper part slightly open and the ties loosely knotted, leaving the tops of her breasts and her neck delicately exposed. Strands of her wet hair draped over her shoulders. A few droplets of water trickled down from her neck, disappearing into the hollow of her chest.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBeZNMfs7d
She didn’t tie the belt tightly. Leaving the robe slightly loose, she noticed how it barely concealed her figure—but she didn’t care. Her body was still relaxed from the heat, her mind pleasantly foggy.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihN5nCzzS9
When she opened the door, a wave of warm air spilled out of the bathroom.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AuwtdC5VU
The cool air of the hallway hit her skin instantly, sending a shiver down her spine. The soles of her feet tingled against the chilly floor.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sU4IekKLr
Just as she was about to head to her room…
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvZmXv4iSg
The sound of a door opening.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYswUqiQ62
She turned her head and saw Tom stepping out of his room.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5J2qXwt1f
Tom emerged from his room wearing only a pair of boxers, his erection evident beneath the fabric, pressing against it noticeably. He looked like he had just woken up—his hair tousled, his expression groggy as he shuffled toward the bathroom. In the dim lighting of the hallway, his lean, toned muscles stood out sharply, a testament to his transformation from boyhood to manhood over the years.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqrGmTbcOZ
When he saw Scharline, he froze for a moment. His eyes lingered on her for a few seconds, taking her in. Her loosely tied robe, its upper part slightly parted, the damp strands of hair clinging to her skin… His sister Scharline’s provocative beauty, even if unintentional, intensified his arousal, making his erection more pronounced beneath the boxers. It was an involuntary reaction, a pull he couldn’t control as his gaze traced her form.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqod43cHFF
Scharline, however, seemed oddly at ease during those moments. Even if she noticed Tom’s evident arousal, she acted as though she hadn’t, maintaining an air of calm indifference. With a serene smile, she said, "Good morning. Are you taking a shower?" Her voice was natural and casual, as if this were just an ordinary morning encounter in the hallway.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uy3vYcSF9
Tom swallowed hard, caught off guard. "Yeah… Good morning," he replied, his voice slightly shaky. He forced his eyes away from her, glancing down at the floor, though his mind remained fixated on her skin and the exquisite details of her chest visible beneath the robe. "I’m… heading to the shower," he added quickly, eager to end the brief exchange. He turned and stepped into the bathroom, closing the door behind him.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZEUNenHfN
Scharline continued toward her room without looking back, her expression still calm and composed. Tom, now alone in the bathroom, paused for a moment. He slipped off his boxers, letting them fall to the floor, and glanced down at his hardened erection. His fingers brushed against it, then began to stroke slowly. Closing his eyes, he pictured Scharline—her skin beneath the loosely tied robe, the delicate contours of her breasts. His breathing quickened as he lost himself in the fantasy, torn between guilt and desire.
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qCU4UHbjg
Scharline, back in her room, closed the door and faced the mirror. Her robe remained loose, droplets of water still clinging to her skin. But the only thing on her mind…
46Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAvN3IJIss
Was the way Tom had looked at her.
