After five minutes of waiting, I decided to check on him. I waved a hand to the dogs, wanting to reassure them it was okay and telling them to stay out of it simultaneously. Carefully I climbed the stairs, listening for any sounds but was only met with silence. So he’s off the phone. Hesitantly I slowly opened the bedroom door. I wanted to give Clay time to tell me to go away. But when he didn’t, I stepped into the bedroom, frowning as I saw him sitting at the end of the bed, hunched over with his face in his hands. My heart broke seeing him like this. It was worse than this morning when he threw his mother out and sat on the floor against the door. “Clay… you don’t have to tell me. I just… I wanted to make sure you were okay. If you need space, I’ll leave. I can do that if you want someone to be silent with you. If you want to talk, I’ll listen.” I offered, walking closer slowly, not wanting to spook him. I yelped as his arms suddenly wrapped around my waist, and I was pulled into

I should feel like a shit-tier human being right now. I fucked Xenia to escape all the shit my mother unloaded on me. Who the hell does that? Who uses another person to escape reality? Me apparently. I’m the kind of loser asshole that uses a woman for sex to forget all his pain temporarily.She didn’t say no or make me stop, but that doesn’t make it any less of a douche move. Not to mention I just told her about my biggest secret with the new information about what my mother did. I have expressed more emotions around Xenia in the last twenty-four hours than I have anyone that’s not in my immediate family.My mother…no, Sophia lost all privileges to be called mother isn’t an immediate family in my book, and after that phone call, s

I have met more members of Clay’s family in a week than I had guys I’ve dated for months. And I honestly can’t say which was the worst meeting. Makayla caught me in a state of undress in her living room with Clay. His parents met me at the hospital when he had been drugged, and Sophia accused me of doing it. And now his sister has seen me naked, straddling him. I mean, it’s good that she hadn’t shown up earlier or a few minutes later because I’d been even more embarrassed. This is the second time one of his relatives has walked in on us during an intimate moment. This time it was more of an emotionally intimate moment. But given that his cock was stirring, we were on our way to round two. As fun as a second round sounded, even my pussy had to admit she needed a break. So maybe it’s for the best that we got interrupted. As we came downstairs, I recognized his brother-in-law from the pictures Clay showed me the other night at the bar. I can’t see the twins from here, but I know there i

I should be more worried about what my sister is saying to Xenia and what’s taking them so long. And if Don hadn’t decided to distract me by handing Nik and Leo to me, I would be. But honestly, it’s hard to think about anything else when I’m holding them. Leo had stopped fussing and, like her brother, was currently drooling against my shoulder, fast asleep. It reminded me of holding my cousins’ kids, especially Aiko and Saki, whom I held like this. Though they were smaller than my niece and nephew, the Nikolaidis gene wasn’t as strong as my cousins’ kids. I know most people would be worried about letting me hold something as delicate as a baby. Hell, my hand is bigger than most newborns’ heads. But being big doesn’t mean I’m not gentle. “You’re good with them. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised at this point. They’ve always settled down in your arms since you first held them.” Don commented as he portioned out dinner to four plates. “It’s a gift. Forrest called me the baby whisperer.”

“I knew I didn’t like that woman when she first showed up at my house.” Don shook his head. “I’m sorry, Clay. I can’t and don’t want to imagine your pain.” He frowned, looking from my sister holding their son to me holding their daughter. “And I’m sure it’s a pain that won’t just go away. But maybe with some therapy, you’ll work past it. And I can say when your post haunts you and the pain your blood inflicted on you hurts so bad you want to cut yourself off from the world, having someone at your side always makes it better.” Don nodded in Xenia’s direction. Xenia blushed a little. “I… that’s implying there is more to us than there probably is.” She shook her head. It hurt hearing that. I can’t exactly fault Xenia for it. It’s not like either of us has said what this is. Sure we’ve shared our secret pains, but that doesn’t mean we are something more than two hurt people finding an escape in sex together. “So true, Don.” Reese nodded. “And Xenia, everyone at this table knows you two

If you’d told me two weeks ago that the guy I fell into a pond with would be my boyfriend and that I’d be moving in with him, I’d say you were nuts. I’d have thought it as believable as having to go to court later to give testimony against my now former neighbor. Yet here I am, taping shut the last box of my belongings. My family decided they ALL had to drive up from Jersey to help. It’s not like I had much stuff or was taking any furniture. Do you know that saying that too many cooks in the kitchen will burn the soup? Too many Rosarios in a tiny apartment cause headaches for all. I need some extra strength Tylenol after this. Clay is lucky he had to work this morning, so he is missing out on the headache. Though it’s probably good, he isn’t here. There wouldn’t be enough room for anyone else to come in and out of the apartment with boxes, as he’d take up half the space. Shit, maybe he should have come. Then I’d have a reason to tell my family just to let us handle it. Instead, I hav

I wasn’t sure what worried me the most about today. Meeting Xenia’s family, her moving in with me, or having to go to court. All had me on edge for different reasons. Each had pros and cons. Meeting her family was concerning because I’d never been introduced to a girl’s family. Meeting family meant being involved, and I didn't get involved in the years between Yenifer and Xenia. I wasn’t raised without manners. I know how to act around people. Even if Sophia hadn’t been a tyrant about such etiquette growing up, dad and mamãe wouldn’t have let me grow up as a disrespectful shithead. But I wasn’t sure how her family would feel about me dating her or us moving in together already. Which was another thing. Having Xenia move in was a HUGE step. Outside of family, I have never lived with someone else. Sure, Xenia has been staying here since the Trevor incident. And her moving in was an out-of-left-field thought. I knew she didn’t want to keep living in that closet apartment even if Trevor

My stomach churned, just having to remember that night. I had wanted to stand up and shout that Trevor was a delusional asshole when he claimed I was his girlfriend and that attacking me was part of consensual role play. I don’t know what triggered his mental breakdown, but neither of those is true. And I have no rape fantasies. I won’t knock anyone that does because to each their own but fuck no, that shit isn’t for me. Having to get on the stand was nerve-wracking. Even more so when I had to go into details about what happened that night, the only reason I could get through it was by looking at Clay. I got through Mrs. Durvo’s questioning, but now the part I dreaded. Trevor gets to ask me questions. “Xenia…” Trevor smiled that smarmy smile that made me sick to my stomach. “May I call you that?” He asked. “No,” I answered adamantly. I could tell it riled him, but he smoothed his ill-fitting suit jacket down as he stood. “Very well, Miss Rosario. Is it not true that we’ve gone on d
