*Willow*“Did I do something wrong?” Orlando asked. “What do you mean?”“You didn’t call or text me this weekend at all.”“Oh…things were really chaotic at the mansion.” I said. “You sure that was it?”“Meaning?”“Look Joy mentioned to me that you told her you spent the night at my place on Friday. Obviously that wasn’t the case.” Orlando sighed. “Are you…seeing other guys?”“Orlando, come on. We’re not exclusive, babe.”“Because you don’t want to be. I do. I thought you said you liked me.”“I do!” I insisted. “But you’re fucking other guys? How many? I can handle it.”“Look, it was one guy…it meant nothing okay? It was just the heat of the moment and I didn’t want Joy to find out so I told her I was with you. I’m really sorry.”“Are you gonna keep seeing him?” Orlando questioned.“I don’t know. But I promise it’s not serious.” I said. “It was just sex.”Orlando leaned in close. “I want more than sex, Willow. I want you a-and I know I don’t seem serious or anything like that, but I

*Willow*“Wait what?” I asked. “This is what I’ve been trying to tell you but you’ve been so busy with your boyfriend.”“So you actually want to find your biological parents? Why are you keeping that a secret? I mean do Skyler and Avery know?”“No…how can I tell them? I’m their entire world. I-I was their miracle. They would be so devastated if they found out I wanted to find out where I come from.”I guess that was pretty true.“There’s other people you could talk to,” I said. “I mean Grayson was adopted and so was EJ. Why not go to them?”“I’m scared they’ll tell my parents,” Levi sighed. “I just…this was something I thought I had to do on my own. I wanted to meet them before even telling the family just in case things went wrong…you know like Grayson’s dad.”Apparently when Grayson met his father, he didn’t want him at all. That might have had something to do with Grayson being a thirty year old man when that happened. His father already had a whole life without him. What if the

*Nathaniel*Making Willow mad was no longer fun to me.She wouldn’t breathe in my direction the next morning. “Good morning,” I said hopefully.“Is it Nathaniel? A good morning? It’s a pretty shitty morning to me.” Willow snapped. Oh yeah, she was really pissed. “Sorry I said anything.”“You should be. Shut the fuck up.”“Woah, Willow!” Scarlett exclaimed. “Can we not curse in the morning?”“Can your brother not be such a fucking prick?!” Willow grabbed her mug and stalked out. “What did you do to her now?”“I was an asshole.” I muttered. “It’s just a habit.”“Maybe break that habit. Never forget that she’s Bianca Monroe’s daughter.”“And what does that mean?” “That she can hold a nasty grudge,” Grayson came up behind Scarlett and kissed her cheek. “Just like her sister can.”“Oh really?” Scarlett asked. “What I mean is I love you dearly, baby. Everyday with you is a beautiful dream.”“That’s what I thought. See you just have to be nice to Monroe girls and your life will be much

*Willow*“Oh Willow, that’s good,” Nathaniel whispered. “Wait, right there…yeah that’s perfect baby. A little more pressure…yeah that’s it. Oh fuck that feel so good.”I giggled as I looked down at him. We were watching a movie in my room. He was laying on top of me with his head on my lap and I decided to give him a little scalp massage. He really liked it. “How do you make an innocent little massage sound so sexual?” I asked. “I don’t know, you turn me on a lot.” Nathaniel murmured. “But it does feel really good.”“Glad to hear it. I want you to feel good, baby.”Nathaniel's head snapped up to look at me. “Oh my god.”“What?” I asked. “You called me baby.”“Okay.”“Y-you never have before. Anything like that. You never call me pet names.”“I call you daddy.” I laughed. “It’s not the same,” He said. “Nathaniel, come on, I definitely have called you babe or something. Like during sex.”“No, I’ve called you that, but you’ve never said it to me…until now.”“Well, what’s the big de

*Willow*“So can you get away this weekend?” Levi whispered. “Katherine wants us over for dinner.”“I don’t think I can, Levi.” I winced. “Willow, come on, I need you.”“You should spend time with them on your own, Levi, they’re your family.”“I know, but I get nervous. I feel safe when you’re there.”“That’s really sweet, but I really can’t. Maybe it’s time you tell Joy.”“No! I-I can’t. This is just between you and me.”“I understand, Levi, but the guy I’m seeing…we have plans.”“Orlando will understand right?” Levi asked.“I’m not seeing Orlando.”“Oh…so this new guy you’re seeing, is it serious?” “Um…not sure. But I already agreed to do something with him.”“Not all weekend right?”“I guess we’re not doing anything solid on Sunday night.” I sighed. “That works, Will. Thank you so much! I’m so close to finding out who my dad is!” He kissed my cheek before hurrying back to his room, surely to call Katherine.I made sure the coast was clear before going into Nathaniel’s room and l
