Ryder
I still can't believe Genie McConnell is going to be my Stepsister. Out of any other girls with tities and a nice ass, it's going to be her. Since when did dad start seeing another woman. Hell, he's never seen anyone since mom left. All however was just a nice pussy to satisfy his urges. But seeing Genie mom with him, I'm pretty sure it must be serious.
It's been a week since my dad and Sophia announced their engagement and I'm still fuming. I don't understand why I'm angry. First, why does he have to throw that news at us without any warning. From the horrified look on Genie's face I'm sure it came as a surprise. Secondly, he hasn't been around ever since. I know he has a busy schedule but fuvk, he's settling down in a few months now with a soon to be Stepsister and a wife for Christ sake. I know he came in late last night anyways.
Throughout this week, I did something. Haven't done since the first time I set my eyes on her, I let her be. I avoided and stayed clear of her way. I even warned Juan not to be near her which earned me some suspicious looks from him, how in the world am I supposed to tell him Genie is going to be my Stepsister and will be moving in today. The only reason why I'm still in this house by four in the afternoon. Well, Courtesy of dad. Speaking of which, I heard some noise outside and looked outside to find a van outside with Sophia and Genie standing before it.
"Ryder, would you come and assist us?" I heard my dad's grunt voice as he was trying to lift a box.
"It's 2022 dad, we're not that poor not to afford a moving company service" I throw back.
His bright eyes shine, giving me a silent message.
"Okay, fine"
"Hi, Ryder, it's so nice to see you again" Sophia's voice sounded behind me and I turned.
"Nice to see you too" I smiled.
Holy fuck! Where did that come from? Nice to see you? I wasn't expecting that.
“Nice to see you,” Genie said in a sing-song voice under her breath as Sophia and my father headed inside, and I marched over to her.
"What did you just say rocks?"
"Don't call me that" she fired back and for the first time I noticed what she's putting on. What the fuck is she on? My eyes trailer her long legs to her tights. She has on a bum shot and a silly tank top that does nothing to cover her stomach. Part of me wants to at her to go inside and change while the other continue to stare. It took all of me to avert my eyes before she caught me ogling her body.
"It's just funny you acting like a nice kid when in front of our parents when we both know you aren't" she paused. "You know I could put up with all of your bullshit. I'm at school but try to act nicer to my mom and me" she rushed her words then walked away before I could say anything.
"Are you kids okay?" my father called out. "Ryder, Genie room I going to be the one next to yours"
“What?” I replied. “There’s tons of other rooms she can have. The one on the ground floor is spacious and has a nice private balcony she’d probably like.”
He pressed his lips into a thin line. “I’m well aware of the layout of my own house, Ryder. I just think it would benefit you two to be close. You can
spend more time together and get to know each other.”
That's one thing about James Saint, he never takes no for an answer.
“We already know each other. We fucking attend the same school”
“Not as siblings. She’s going to be next door to you, and that’s final.”
He marched back inside and I rolled my eyes. From the look on Genie's face, I could tell she wasn’t too happy about it either. I gave her a death glare, she fucking caused this.
Fuck all of this!
I went inside my room and didn't come out again.
Genie
I took a huge step over the parking strip while I followed my mom. All of our things are boxed up and some furniture my mom thinks she'd like to keep have been sent here earlier. So we only have a few things to pack, meaning we don't need moving services.
"James got it all covered" was my mom's reply when I asked her.
I stared at the house before me, hugged and at least three times the size of my old one. It stood at the extreme of the street with woods surrounding it. I suddenly like it here as I inhale the fresh morning breath and listen to the chirps of birds. I never knew James could like an environment like this. Heck even Ryder.
We followed the path to the front door, all mahogany and paneled just the way the rich would like it. All this while I try to steady my breath. Not only am I moving into a new environment which I like, surprisingly, I'm going to be living with the only boy who makes my blood boil.
Without entering I knew it had a nice layout. The garage alone is twice the size of my front yard in my former house. I can see my sports car there already and I smile. Don't judge me, I like my former house and it's not on the poor side of the city but it's but this big. It only has three bedrooms and a tiny place to fit my mom's ranger over and my new sports car.
"Sophia! Genie!" James' voice jerked me out of my train of thoughts.
"You made it early, I wasn't expecting you for another hour" he smiled and hugged me after my mom.
"Genie has a couple of things to set up in her room and it can take all day" my mom answered while James nodded. I doubt he understands how organized I can be with arrangements.
It was when we started unpacking that I realised who was missing. I mean my heart has been racing a Marathon since I know I'll be coming here so there's no way I won't notice his absence.
Where's Ryder?
Ryder, would you come and assist us?" I heard James grunt voice as he was trying to lift a box.
It was as if he could hear me or did I say that out Loud?? I hope I haven't.
I looked up only to meet the cold stare of Ryder. He stood there in shorts with one of his hands in his pocket. I looked away.
"It's 2022 dad, we're not that poor not to afford a moving company service" he fired back.
Whatever James said to him next I didn't hear but I know he later agreed.
That is new. Ryder never does anything against his will. No one in my school can make him do nothing. With all of his mischievous acts he never gets detention. Why? His father makes generous donations to the school. One fun fact about having a rich dad.
"Hi, Ryder, it's so nice to see you again" Mom had a huge smile on her face as she moved to hug Ryder
"Nice to see you too" he smiled back. For some reason I want to believe he is sincere but I know better. He only manipulates people to believe he is nice but underneath that is a monster.
“Nice to see you,” I sang a song mimicking his earlier gesture as soon as my mom went inside. I couldn't keep that to myself.
"What did you just say rocks?" He gave me the usual death glare and I looked backed. Looked directly into his eyes.
"Don't call me that" Don't call me that I said becoming angry. Me knows I hate that name and he uses it to torment me any chance he gets. "It's just funny you acting like a nice kid when in front of our parents when we both know you aren't" I paused. "You know I could put up with all of your bullshits I'm school but try to act nicer to my mom and me"
I didn't hear what James said to Ryder. All I know is that he looked angry and he passed by me and went inside. Such an angry bird. I'm pleased he left because I can finally focus on unpacking. It took us another two hours to get the boxes in each room. If I think the front of the house is beautiful, the interior is definitely gorgeous. And my room…
If I could use one word to describe it, I would say it's perfect and probably too spacious. The walls were a pale robin’s egg blue, and the furniture was mostly white and French-inspired. I opened the window and the sight before me was breathtaking. It is directly facing the pool and a part of the back yard. But that isn't what I like, I like the serenity and the songs of the birds I could hear from afar. I closed my eyes and let the sun hit my face.
"I like the view, it's beautiful" I said when I finally opened my eyes. I turned back to James.
"Do you like it?"
I looked around once again. "It's fine" It's twice the size of my bedroom at home and has a nice view. The paintings on the wall look old but it is still okay.
"I'll leave you to unpack or you need my help?" He asked
"Of course not. I can handle the rest myself"
He nodded and started to walk away when I called him.
"James?" He turned.
"Thank you for…. Everything" I fumbled with words. He gave me a reassuring smile. "You're family now, Genie"
With that he makes his way out of my room not forgetting to shut the door behind him.
****
That night, Ryder didn't come down for dinner. I tried not to think he's behind closed doors. James said he's in but I doubt if that is true. Actually I've tried to see if he's in during my frequent trips to my bedroom since he is right next to mine. The room is quiet and the light is flipped on. An old disco song sounded in the background and I recognized it…….. Another new thing to discover, I never knew Ryder could like that tract. It's actually my favourite.
On my way up to bed, I couldn’t help stopping to stare at Ryder's closed bedroom door once more. The music had stopped, it had one that I didn't recognize. I wondered what he could be doing. Disappointed that I didn't see his face, I went inside my room.
Later my mom came in and I offered her a quick good night and then rolled over to face the wall, burying my head in my comforter as she closed the door behind her. I do hear people say it's very difficult to fall asleep easily in a foreign bed and I can see the reason why because right now, despite the fatigue, overcoming every inch of my body is too much to handle. I've spent hours arraigning, packing and unpacking my new room. I roll back over and press a hand to my forehead. It takes me a good hour of tossing and turning and testing my will to live before I do finally fall asleep. After what seems like five minutes later, that peaceful sleep was interrupted with a loud banging against my bedroom window.
Reluctantly, I got up and opened the blinds only to find a drunken Ryder leaning against the wall.
What? I squinted to see if it's actually him but that's only ridiculous. I thought he was in all along, well we all did. How did he get out? Who's been playing the music… it didn't take me seconds before I put two and two together. Of course, it's Ryder Saint.
"What do you want?" I whispered and yelled a bit angry. He interrupted me when I just managed to fall asleep.
It takes him a while before he help himself up and locate my voice
"Open the door" he slurred and staggered backwards.
"Just open the door" he says again in the same slurring voice.
I quickly grabbed the nearest paint my hands could find because I actually like sleeping in my panties and tank top. It was when I reached the foot of the stairs I asked myself what I was doing. This is Ryder for the love of God. Carefully, I opened the door for him to come in.
"What took you so long?" He barks as he barges past me. He reeked of alcohol and cigarettes.
Even a drunk Ryder is still an asshole
I closed the door and pulled its lock. "Didn't know you were checking the time"
"How much do you drink?" I followed him as he took uneven steps. He didn't answer so I asked again.
"How many bottles did you drink?"
"None of your fucking business Rocks" was his reply.
"Do you need water or something?" He tried to climb the steps but stumbled and I tried to help him up.
"Don't fucking touch me" he paused. "Don't lay your fucking hands on me"
"You know what Ryder, Fuck you!" I've had enough of his stupid tantrums. I left him there not caring if he makes it up or he passes out there. Ryder will surely be Ryder. Whether he is drunk or not. I ripped off my pants when I got back in.
Some minutes later, I heard his door open then close. He did make it up eventually. It took me another four minutes before I finally fell asleep.
Too much for a first night.
I shut my eyes as soon as I opened them. Wtf! Why is it so bright in here? What happened? My room is usually dark. When my eyes finally get used to the light I realised it's not my room after all. Where am I? Like a flash, I recollect the events of yesterday. Our arrival and then at night, a drunk Ryder. The window, my face went in that direction spontaneously and I realised it's still open. Little wonder it's all bright in here. I stared at the ceiling for a while while I listened to the low…. Coming from Ryder's room. He must really love that band. After a while, I decided to get out of bed and put on some clothes as I was done doing this, I heard my door close behind me and I looked up to see the race of the person I so dread. Arrgggh Will I ever get used to seeing his face each day now that we live together? I don't think so. Stepping away from the mirror, "Have you ever heard the word 'privacy' before?" I studied his face, he looks okay, his hair is a little dishevel
He is leaning against the closed door obviously blocking my way out. How did he get in here? I didn't hear him climb the stairs let alone come in. "What are you doing here?" His voice is calm."No..noth…nothing" I stammered and quickly god the camera behind my back but it was too late as he already saw it."Oh!" His eyes widened In recognition as he took in the scene before him "Give it to me" he extended his palms out towards me. I start to bypass him but it's of no use as he had already shut the door. I stood incredibly close to him as I inhaled the smell of freshness from him. I've never been this close to him. Never. It has always been him intimidating me and me running away. But that had stopped. I made that clear weeks ago that he couldn't triumph over my weakness again. Plus, I've already decided that I'll stop being a victim to his unjust war. I tightened my trip around it "No" I said firmly. He can do what he likes all I care. He takes a step closer and I take one back. "
*****I opened my eyes. My hair sticks to the side of my face with sweat.Heat smothers my body and my breasts tighten against the towel.That’s not all.Oh. God.My hand rests between my legs and I’m… wet.I jerk my hand free as if I was caught stealing.I remember last night after an early dinner with mom, dad and Ryder I came in here to study but I ended up falling asleep. heard a muffled sound coming through the wall from Ryder’s bedroom. It must be what woke me up from while at the brink of getting a good orgasm. I listened carefully and It sounded like someone crying in pain, but as I cocked my ear towards it, I realized it was a woman moaning with pleasure.God, he was such a vulgar man-whore. He's watching the blues. Omg. I tried to picture him stroking himself while watching and insert my fingers where it aches me between my legs. The lady starts moaning faster and I follow the Rhythm with my fingers in an effort to finish what I have been dreaming about but my hands don't s
One fact I disagree with is that I'm obsessed with my stepbrother. Ex bully but now my stepbrother. The transition is overwhelming and unbelievable. The guy who I had vowed to hate and get away from. The one who makes me feel insecure of myself. The one whose voice makes my blood boil. Just like the dew disappears with the morning light, all of this magnimonity was replaced with a feeling I can't place my hands on. Ryder is more than I had earlier pictures of him. Of course he is a badass guy who still pisses me off anytime he wants but beneath him is something more. Ryder and I never spoke of the sexual tension between us even though it ran through my mind each time especially the movie we both shared in his room. I was pretty sure it didn’t mean anything to him, that he was just trying to lose me even though the sensations I experienced were the same as if we were in the movie. The past few weeks have been less dramatic. He's been busy with practice so I see less of him at home.
We stare at each other, both of our eyes wide. Like we just woke up from a century's worth of sleep and realizing the change in the world. We were surprised at what just happened. I can't read the expression on Ryder's face. I can't tell if he regrets what just happened or it's just part of what to expect. "I'm just going to leave," I mutter. I stand up and straighten my blouse, stepping away from him. It didn't take me any second before I exited his room, not glancing back to spare him a look. I leaned against my door the moment I'm in my room and closed the door behind me. I stood there blinking for forever and staring into eternity. I placed my hands over my chest to stop my racing heart. There is no logical explanation for what just happened. I just freaking kissed my stepbrother. The guy who weeks ago is the last person I ever wished to come across. The guy who infuriates and makes my blood boil. The guy I seriously wish to get away from. The guy who never dated girls. The guy
I was in a calculus class when I heard my phone chimed. I was relieved I could get my eyes away from Mr Allen and his boring lectures. Infact, I have been dying to get off this seat for a long time. So when I got a message, I became happy. I reached between the pocket of my sweater and pulled out my phone. It's a message from Ryder. Why is he texting me in school? The few weeks since I've known Ryder now, he only texts when he has anything naughty to say or to disturb me. Something within me tells me something is wrong somewhere. I mean, he never texts in school at least. Before I could find out what the message entailed, I heard the demanding yet ugly voice of Mr Allen calling me. "Miss, McConnell, are you still with us?" I look up to find his eyes boring into mine like he has been staring at me a long time ago. I broke the contact and looked around to find all the double pairs of eyes lingering on my body. "Ye..yes" I stuttered. "Good" he says before turning to the board to co
"I know all of this is fucked up because you're my fucking step sister. I shouldn't want you or fell attracted to you but I can't help it Genie" His eyes are no longer gentle. "I know you don't feel the same way but I need to get the words out now" "Why?" My voice is a little quiver. "Why what?" He asked "Why are you telling me all of this now?" I repeat. I'm confused and feeling sick right now. "Why did you have to tell me all these Ryder?" "Because that's the way I feel" his voice is calm. "I thought you hated me" He laughs. "You believed that?" "I've never been myself around you Genie. You turns me on so fucking badly that I hated you. I hated the fact that you get to me and makes me feel in the way I've never felt before" I'm stunned into silence by the new revelation. The guy who had made my life a complete hell is actually attracted to me. "Since when?" I couldn't help but ask the one question that has been on mind since he started all of these. Did he woke up tod
Lexi. Her face was wild and filled with shock. Like she has just walked in on her boyfriend with another girl in bed. This isn't far anyway. Her best friend is making out with her hot step brother."Lexi, wait I can…" I tried to explain but she didn't wait for that as she turned and started running down the staircase. I sit down on the floor, tears gathering to my eyelids. My face is filled with embittered agony and tears that threaten to fall. I can't lose her too. Everyone here hates me already and now that things have started to get better, I got into this with Lexi. She was the only one who stood by my corner when the whole school was against me. She fought for me and stayed with me. Ryder couched beside me and wrapped his arms around me. "Hey, it's okay," He said, pulling me up with him. I couldn't even bear looking him in the eyes. The butterflies that I felt in my stomach earlier were all gone bad replaced with regret. I shouldn't have done that. I picture my mum telling m
