William

I step into the bathroom and turn on the shower, standing naked under the hot water. I needed the water to wash it away, the thoughts of him. I needed the heat to replace the one that was burning me from the inside. But no matter how hot the spray was, it failed to wash him away. My mind keeps going back to Elias time and time again.

That cheeky boy.

I hate him.

God, I hate him so much. I hate the way he looks at me...with those heavy, unblinking eyes that pin me in place and always bac

    EliasA four a.m. flight. A fucking four a.m. flight,that’s what William had ordered me to book.Now we were high in the air. I was sleepy, cranky, and starving with zero appetite, with still an hour left before we reached our destination. He had insisted that I booked economy because there was no need for first class.There is always a need for first class but I wasn’t about to argue over that.Beside me, William was typing away furiously on his laptop beside me. God, I hated his work habits.We were flying out for a client, not strictly as representatives of the primary firm, but because the client had specifically requested William, even offering to cater to every single expense just to get him in the room.“Stop shuffling so much,” William mumbled, his eyes never leaving the bright screen.“Easy for you to say. You’re used to being up at odd hours.”“If you had carried a book like I suggested, you’d have something to keep your mind occupied.”I snort. “Right. Because waking up ear

    LiamThe room seemed to tilt on its axis. Air left my lungs leaving me suffocating while struggling to wrap my head in what i hoped wasn't real.He’s alive.“Liam?” Cathy asked, setting her pizza crust down. “You look like you’re about to throw up.”I glance at him, horror still written on my face then turn to mom when her voice came up.“He was here last week, Liam,” Mom informed. “He brought Tiana a toy. He’s trying so hard to fix things. He promised me he was getting a large payout from his old business partner’s estate... said an associate named Claire was going to settle it for him.”“I...” I pulled violently at my collar, my mind racing so hard it made me dizzy.I reached out and grabbed onto the edge of the counter, but that wasn't enough to steady the violent sway of the room. I laid my upper body flat against the cold table. Nope, still not enough. Slowly, my knees buckled, and I lowered myself all the way to the floor, lying flat on my back on the kitchen tile.Both my mothe

    Liam“Why do you look so shocked?” Cathy asked, wiping her hands on a napkin.“Um... I just found out I have another sister,” I stammered, rubbing the back of my neck. “And the name of the father sounds familiar,too familiar and I’m desperately hoping it’s not who I think it is.”She stares at me like I was blubbering complete nonsense.This was bad. Real bad.“You might want to sit down before you collapse,” she said, gesturing toward the living room.I followed her to the couch, my limbs feeling heavy and numb. Cathy grabbed a wet wipe, cleaned her fingers, and reached for the pizza box on the table. She pulled out a warm slice and held it out to me.“No, I’m... I’m not hungry,” I murmured, waving it away. If I eat right now I may just puke.She raises an eyebrow at me but didn't press. “I know it’s shocking, but is it that shocking?”I shake my head, desperately needing to steer my mind away from the sudden horror. “How’s school?” I asked, abruptly changing the subject.“All the sa

    LiamI got to the top of the landing just in time to see my mother push open her bedroom door.The high-pitched, frantic crying echoed off the walls. I stepped up behind her, my heart hammering against my ribs so hard it was suffocating.Standing beside a faded wooden crib, my mother was leaning over, whispering frantic, breathless apologies as she lifted a small, squirming bundle wrapped in a faded pink blanket into her arms.I stood paralyzed in the doorway, staring at the baby.“Mom...” My voice came out choked, barely a whisper. “Whose baby is that?”She bounced the child gently against her chest, patting its back while keeping her eyes locked onto the far corner of the room, refusing to meet my gaze. “She’s... she was sleeping. You slammed the front door, Liam. I told you-”“Mom!” I stepped further into the room, my stomach dropping into a cold, bottomless abyss. “Whose baby is this?! Was Cathy pregnant?! Did she-”“No!” my mother snapped, finally looking at me, her face pale an

    LiamI hated traveling, so all my life I had avoided unnecessary journeys.But this situation called for it, and even though I was excited to see my family...no , I wasn't. So that was two things pissing me off right out of the gate.Three, if I included the weather. The low-hanging gray clouds made it clear that it was going to rain very soon.The taxi driver’s agonizingly slow pace was just proof that I wouldn't be home anytime soon and that increased my agitation.'Perfect.' I think, shifting uncomfortably in the seat. 'Just what I needed.'“I’m sure your family has missed you so much,” the driver said, cutting through the quiet.I groaned internally, reminding myself exactly why I had left this miserable small town in the first place. Everyone was in everyone else’s business, and I despised it. That’s why, when I finally moved away, I cut off all contact with everyone and made my mother swear on her life not to give my phone number out to a single soul.I let out a heavy sigh and

    Elias“I would like to make some changes,” Mother speaks, her voice cutting through the cutlery clutter in the dining room.Ever since the last time I ‘tried to cook’, according to her, she has been obsessed with forcing us to share meals together at least three times a week.I dreaded each night and I hated every second of it. Half of it involved an analysis of my behaviour, where I'm at in life and where I should be. Dinner would end with me irritated, mom giving me the look of disappointment and William just being there,looking hot and pissing me off.William and I both look up at her, waiting. She pats her lips delicately with her cloth napkin and places it beside her plate.“You all know the cleaning staff has been coming in four times a week, more when needed. I would like for them to move in permanently. We have separate quarters, and plenty of extra rooms in the main house if anyone needs to occupy them.”My face instantly drops.What the fuck?“I’m sorry? I didn't know our st

    ElliasI sat in the very last row, the mahogany bench feeling like a church pew at a funeral I wasn’t allowed to mourn. All my muscles were tense. A part of me was thrilled my mother was walking into this. Another part was scared because the man will be around every single day.I could successfully

    Ellias3 months laterSharp, rhythmic rapping against my bedroom door dragged me out of a dreamless, heavy sleep."Elias. Wake up. The first of the town cars are pulling into the drive."My mother’s voice was as crisp as the morning air, devoid of the tremor I’d been carrying in my own voice for nin

    Elias.The energy between us was thick with anticipation. I walked slowly, with steady steps. My heart thumped in my chest. Excitement, fear, nervousness….“You know how the rooms are divided?”He nods.“Ill need you to take the lead here.”He steps forward and moves to the left. The couples segment

    ElliasThe air at pure leather was heavy with the musk of arousal and the smell of alcohol. I leaned back in my seat watching the beautiful scene that was happening before me.The dominant was doing a wonderful job with the ropes, carefully trying them around his submissive.
