The morning light clashed with the dining room light as they both cast a golden glow on the mahogany table. Rory sat stiffly in his chair. He played around with his food. The air smelled of freshly brewed coffee, buttered toast with shredded chicken, and grilled vegetables.

But the delicious smell did nothing to the painful knot tied in his stomach. He had gone from excited to depressed in a matter of minutes.

His brain had taken a long time to process what had happened inside the bathroom. He

  • Knots of Kinship   Chapter 120-

    Rory blinked at her like she had just grown three heads and a horn.“Huh?” “Are you deaf or something?” She answered.The insult was unnecessary, but given that it was Amelia, Harvey’s girlfriend, he ignored it. He didn’t know if Christy would accept. She hates Amelia, and though she wants to get revenge against her, it doesn’t mean she would be comfortable being in the same room with her.“I don’t think she would—”Amelia jumped closer to him, grabbing his hands in hers and smiling at him.“You will message her, right? I have tickets to this all-you-can-eat, and there is also an after-event. You both should come.”“I really don’t know if she can; she’s quite busy now and—”“You don’t want him to know what you do with your daddy’s underwear.”The playful smile fell off her face as she glared at him. There were only a VERY few people who could turn her down and ignore her opinion, and she wasn’t about to add a faggot to that mix just yet. Not even ever.“Don’t fuck around with me, d

  • Knots of Kinship   Chapter 119-Good girl

    Idiotic question: If he didn’t want to withdraw his son, he wouldn’t be in contact with him. He ignored him, making a mental note to decide if he would fire his dumbass or not. He was genuinely starting to sound stupid and also very annoying.He kept his ears peeled for Rory. Placing his phone back on the side table, he walked into the bathroom. Rory was all dressed, combing his hair and styling it up. His muscles flexed as he sighed. Nicholas thought he was having problems with his hair, but then he spoke up.“I thought we already decided on the dress yesterday?”‘Yeah, we did… but who wears a dress to a concert?’“Did she say it was a concert?”‘You told me about tickets.’“I don’t remember what I even said.” He answered with a shrug.Christy sighed. ‘What are you wearing? I haven’t seen it.’“Well, you are looking at it right now.”There was a pause from Christy before she gasped, looking at him, visibly upset and also appalled. ‘What do you mean? Who the heck are you going with l

  • Knots of Kinship   Chapter 118-Thoughts and Plans

    Nicholas flipped through papers on his desk, but his mind wasn’t there. These thoughts kept drifting back to the morning when Rory confessed to Christy about what he felt towards him.It was never his intention to eavesdrop on their conversation; he was merely coming downstairs, and he happened to hear Christine’s question, and curiosity got the better of him, which made him stop to listen.He didn’t know why he was hesitant to acknowledge any feelings towards him. Was he confused? Nicholas hummed, staring at the paper in front of him with a blank look. Of course there was nothing he felt for his mother.Mostly because of her dry, nonchalant attitude towards his disappearance. Nicholas had noticed she had barely acknowledged him, only berating him as to why he left without saying a word to anyone.He had been with them for a long time to know that wasn’t out of concern.Therefore, Nicholas knew the marriage between him and Heidi was over, and he wasn’t looking for a do-over.He was su

  • Knots of Kinship   Chapter 115—Not so much of a rich kid

    Rory sighed as Christy lay on his bed. Amelia had called using Harvey’s phone. She was just checking in to see if they were still coming. She spoke as if they had even given her a choice on what they wanted or not.But he answered simply. He didn’t want her ‘knight in shining armor’ to fuck him up before or even after the date. All he prayed and hoped for was that this day would end well and he could come back into Nicholas’s arms.However, right now, he had bigger problems. Quite a humongous problem that really should be an issue, but it is.Amelia still won’t let him wear what he wishes.It was just a simple double date.It had to be casual. And in her defense—he could believe he was defending her—she wasn’t exactly telling him to wear a trip suit. But, regardless, it was starting to annoy him when he would bring out a shirt and she would reject it.“Are you really a rich kid?” She asked from behind him.“What?” He tilted his head for a minute before going back to rummaging in his c

    Rory blinked, looking down at her outstretched hand.“You want my number?”“Yes… or social handle?” She tilted her head to the side, her loose white hair moving with her actions. “Or you don’t want to give me? It’s fine, though; we can do it the medieval way. Send birds and letters.”Grinning fooli

    ~Amelia’s bedroom.~Unraveling her hair from the towel, the blonde and blue hair fell down her back. Her olive green eyes trailed over to her boyfriend who laid carelessly over their shared bed. She said nothing to him as she fiddled with both his phone and her phone.Then his phone rang, forcing a

    Rory went to her back and gave a slight push. She held herself with her umbrella as she let herself feel the wind hit against her skin. They were like this for a few minutes. The music from the party was long lost due to their distance from the building.“As I was saying,”Rory slowed his push to l

    Isabella watched with twinkling eyes while Heidi looked at her with confusion. “Why did you do that? You should not have said anything and just let it slide.”Isa humphs like a little kid, looking away from the men to Heidi. “What? I told him he should keep his distaste for Rory at home. It didn’t
