My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 64: MEMORY LANE
BLAZE’S POV"Hi, Lily and Cicely," Hunter said, letting the two ladies in with a massive smile.I glanced up at them, pausing the crazy tap dance his fingers were doing on the laptop. Now, why did the ladies decide to come over today? Last I checked, it was Maverick who always invited them over. Well, I guessed that with my progress with Lily, she was a family member now, and I would be seeing a lot of them from now on. "Hey babe," I said as Lily walked up and wrapped her arms around my neck. She smelt like vanilla, her honey-blond hair soft on my skin. "To what do I owe this honor?" I put forth and watched her giggle.“Well, Cicely wanted us to come over and spend time with you guys. Plus, I missed you.” She answered."Yup, that's right," Axel's girlfriend butted in. "This house must be pretty boring without a female in it. You know, all you guys do is sit in front of your systems and ignore each other all day. How do you even survive?""By doing exactly what you said," I muttere
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 65: CAUGHT IN FEELINGS
BLAZE’S POV"Hmm, this isn't half bad," Axel grunted, biting into the pancake he was holding. Ultimately, the family activity was over, and the girls finally let us out of the kitchen. It was a laughable sight, seeing us in aprons with flour on our hands. I wondered what the servants were thinking."Half bad?" Lily yelled, her eyebrows arched. "It would have been perfect if you boys didn't join us.""Oh please, spare us next time," I countered, and laughter filled the air."Anyways, thanks for this, Cicely," I gestured to her, and she nodded."Leaving already?" Lily asked the second I rose.I nodded, startled that she rose too. "I'm just going to sit in the parlor,""I'll come with you." She responded, shrugging. I pulled my lips apart to say something, anything, but there was no reason to tell her to stay back.You might as well start getting used to her clinginess."What are you thinking about, Blaze?" Lily asked as she lay on the couch beside me, her head resting on my thighs. I le
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 66: I THINK I LOVE HER
AUTHOR’S POVThe air felt suffocating, and the mood of the whole hall was off. Hunter looked around, and of course, everyone was dressed in black. He had on a black suit too, and he sat between his brothers, trying not to let the tears slip. Because they weren't crying, even though he was sure they wanted to, and he could be strong like them. They were the only ones he had to look up to now, both of them successful men, and if he couldn't even follow in the tiniest of their footsteps, then there was no way his life would be as good as theirs."You good, bro?" Axel whispered, leaning closer to him. He had been watching him through the corner of his eyes, and his lower lip kept trembling. He didn't want him to start bawling right here.Hunter nodded, a tense look on his face. "I'll be fine."He looked up as Blaze rose, right in the front seat of the gathering, and left with a stone-cold expression on his face."Is it just me, or does he look angry?" Axel asked as Blaze disappeared thro
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 67: STIGMATIZED
KATIE’S POV"I promise you, it's not going to be a distraction," I assured, flattening my palms on the table and leaning closer to the woman sitting opposite me. Luckily, I wasn't getting morning sickness except for the dizziness and sleepiness.She lifted a hand, fingers brushing aside her ginger hair from her eyes. "I'm sorry, miss, we can't have you here."I grit my teeth, feeling desperate. This was the second college I had applied to, and she told me the same thing. What does my pregnancy have to do with my studies anyway? "The baby isn't due till months to come. By then, I must have covered a lot of ground. I swear I can fit into your school schedule.""It's not just that, Miss Tessa." She took a deep breath, preparing to explain what I already knew she would say."Very soon, the pregnancy will start showing, and then what? You'll need to be skipping class for checkups, and we don't allow that here. The maximum amount of days you can skip class in a session is a week, and tru
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 68: THE CONFUSION
KATIE’S POV"There must be a huge mix-up", I muttered, tapping on my email. I sent a complaint to the help email address on the portal, hoping I would be replied to quickly. I needed this to go on with my search for a college.I still had two more on my list to check out, and they couldn't just reject me. Whatever I had done wrong was not enough for karma to be this cruel.As I arranged my documents to keep them back, my eyes caught a number and name I had scribbled down sometime before.It was labelled 'Mallory', and the name rang a bell. I gasped; she was a friend of mine back then. Perhaps she would be able to do me a little favour. I dialled it in at once, hoping that she would pick up. She did, and I gasped in relief."Mallory, good afternoon," I said."Afternoon...""You're speaking with Katie..." My voice trailed off when I realised I had said my real name out loud. My eyes scanned the area around me; it wasn't empty like I would have preferred. But no one was paying any atten
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 69: FEELINGS
HUNTER’S POV"Do I need to go today?" I asked, crossing my fingers behind me, hoping they would let me skip school today. I had already played the grieving brother card on them to skip school yesterday and the day before. I was sure it wouldn't work to keep me home today."Are you running from a bunch of teens?" Blaze asked in between a bite of pretzel. The way he said it made me sound like a coward, probably because that was what he thought I was at the moment."That's not what the Griffins do, Hunt", he continued, tapping his fingers forcefully on the table for emphasis. "We face things head on, and we do not rub from people."Easy for him to say. He wasn't the one going to be in a class whole of nosy people. And thanks to him, my situation just got worse. They now had the speech he gave to defend himself to torture me with. I bet they didn't think my family was that messed up. If they had sympathised with me before, they would probably be rolling on the floor on my behalf now. And
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 70: THE MONSTER IN ME
HUNTER’S POV"Hey, Coach Jordan,” I called, walking into the open office. I waved at Mason; he'd accompanied me here, and it was a huge relief to focus on his chatter instead of bearing the prying eyes that followed me. He would have come with me into the office, but he told me he felt this would be a private discussion.The burly man looked up from what he was writing, blond hair falling over his eyes as he did so. He flashed me a smile. "Hunter boy" I grinned at the nickname he gave the members of the baseball team. He always added 'boy' to our names, and I found it annoying until I found out that he only referred to his prize team members that way."How're you holding up?" He asked I shrugged. "I'm okay."He raised an eyebrow. "How okay? Because you missed two days at school, this must be hard for you."Great, I could imagine that this was what I would be getting from most of the teachers today. I moved forward and placed my hands on the chair opposite him. "I'm fine. Mason said
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 71: THE DEAD ISN’T HOLY
BLAZE’S POVI took a sip of the wine set before me, staring at the door. It had been an hour now, more time than I would have expected the lawyer to waste. "What's taking the lawyer so long?" I asked, turning towards Axel.My brother shrugged, placing his hands on the dining table. This wasn't really a meal, just something to keep us occupied till the man came. And yet, Axel had asked for a second round of the sausages that the cooks had brought."Think someone hijacked him on the way?" I tried again. Maybe Axel hadn't really gone to get a lawyer that morning. Perhaps he just wanted to waste my time. I hoped that was not the case, though; I had things to attend to at work and this time I was spending here put a lot of things at stake. I was only here because hearing what Dad's will said was important, and as much as I would have loved to listen to it from Axel, I needed to know what it contained first-hand.Axel let out a small laugh. "You're not that lucky, Blaze. We're going to he
