Chapter Thirty Seven | Oversized Rose Colored Glasses

Saturday Afternoon
What does one wear to meet their girlfriend’s concealed lover on a beach? I asked Nixx dryly while accessing an array of options neatly tucked away in three white drawers. We’re so used to living out of a suitcase as it is on account of traveling for work; Bringing myself to unpack the same night I flew in turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
This room has the perfect amount of storage and space for me to move around in as I pace around with music sheets until late at night, visualizing a very rewarding end to this tiresome year; For all involved. Everyone is finally starting to improve at the concert hall—I’m just trying to speed up their progression as a whole. It’ll all be worth it, I hope. Either way I’ll be compensated but I do what I do to make beautiful music come to life.
That’s the ultimate payout.

❋ Erin ❋ I couldn’t stop thinking about it; Like a nagging migraine working it’s way to the focal front of my brain. My relationship—every word, promise, and action—was a lie. I’m on my way to Jesse’s private residence; A high rise apartment he never told me about. I always assumed he was whisking me away for romantic vacations elsewhere—as if some coffee shop manager were that special to a big shot executive. During our breakfast date earlier in the week, I asked Jesse what he thought about kids over Eggs Benedict and freshly squeezed orange juice; Seeing as he has a couple and all. Figured this could be a good chance for him to let me know, right? Expectations suck ass. “Oh uhhh, I’m too busy for them.” He muttered with what sounded like a nervous chuckle. That alone turned me off to anything else he had to say. I acted like everything was on the up and up as we ate, until it was nearly time to get going. Then after pretending to go to the restroom, I slipped away and called Sa

° Nixx ♫ Six hours later Where the hell is Sawyer? Blythe asked in surprise. Didn’t she say 5:30? I stole another glance around before taking a long swallow of alcohol from an expensive crystal glass. Not here, and yes she did. We’re leaving if she doesn’t show soon; We’ll just have to pick this up another time. Blythe insisted we wear her navy blue pants suit, but it’s getting hot as hell in here. Could be nerves, but it’s probably just Florida and their obsession with keeping fine dining establishments as sweltering as their summers. I shrugged out of the jacket, revealing our white satin long sleeve. It was buttoned just above our cleavage area if we had any to speak of, and rolled up at the elbows. What other time, Nixx!? This is it! We’re staying. Blythe argued firmly. If I walk away now you know we’ll both be walking away from Sawyer. I’m not ready to do that yet. Fine. I sighed in irritation and lifted the glass back to my lips. I’m on my second whiskey straight, and st
The Butterfly Knot Chapter Forty | The Butterfly Knot
Author’s note: My last memo (on Chapter Thirty-Nine) didn’t post for some reason, so I’d like to add it here. The last two installments (Chapter Forty and Epilogue) of ‘The Butterfly Knot’ will be told from the third person to adequately cover all of my characters’ feelings, thoughts, ECT. They will also be a bit longer, as the last few chapters in my novels traditionally are. So sit back and please, leave a comment or review if you’re so inclined at the end! *** ✎ Third Person POV ➳ Jesse Giusti was well beyond furious at this point. He impulsively showed up at Erin’s apartment complex fifteen minutes ago with a plan; Confront his former side piece after she oh so eloquently left that damn trash bag chalk full of unfaithful endeavors for his distraught wife, Adela, to find. That led to a detailed email search and seemingly endless interrogation session that lasted late into the prior evening. Through mindless screaming and tears of anguish, Adele left with their school aged
The Butterfly Knot Epilogue
✎ Third Person POV ➳ Four months later, Hayes Concert Hall “Good evening! Here’s your program; Enjoy the show. Hello! Take a program ma’am, yep, follow the lights down that hall over there—” An enthusiastic young usher in his early twenties was handing out gorgeous black concert pamphlets written in elegant white cursive text faster than he could speak, thrilled to share everyone’s excited anticipation. Several sentiments of thanks were passed back and forth. Hayes’ grand entrance room was the only brightly lit space in the building. A soft, classical ballad hummed from every hidden overhead speaker—welcoming one and all into it’s timeless essence. Sawyer was next in line, and she plucked a program with two fingers and a thin smile. Purchasing a onyx pantsuit for this occasion, the fashion obsessed snow white blonde stood out from the crowd with stunning gold jewelry and the right pair of ivory pointy toed kitten heels. She wore Blythe’s collar proudly while out and about, always
The Butterfly Knot A Word From The Author
Thank you ALL for hanging in there while I finished “The Butterfly Knot.” What a hell ride it has been, let me tell you. I remember when I first started writing this novel. My life was so much different back in September of 2020. I was involved in a poly triad, and realized I didn’t fit into their equation. I’m one of the original partners, and ended my seven year relationship so my EXs could be together. This book was supposed to be dedicated to them; Thus I’ve changed the ending at least 89 times. It’s taken me almost two years to publish this novel, making it my longest project to date. I started it September of 2020, and finished writing the Epilogue May of 2022. That said, I still feel polyamorous relationships are every bit as valid as monogamous ones. Honesty is your best policy, as Sawyer learned the hard way. ‘The Butterfly Knot’ wrote itself. Ironically enough a book that should have included intimate details about my own experience in a triad aren’t found in the script.
The Butterfly Knot Chapter One/Prologue:
Prologue:I lit another cigarette shakily before going back to fumbling with Sawyer’s new iPhone 11, opening the sketchy text message that just came through apprehensively. The shower had been going for a hot minute, so I knew it was only a matter of time before she caught me red handed unless I got a move on. I inhaled deeply and immediately regretted my choice as I practically coughed up half a lung.Fuck, I couldn't make this a habit unless I wanted to throw away all of the progress I've made training out on the water.SMS:Yeah, I should have a free weekend coming up here soon. Wanna catch a flick while I’m in town? I’ve been dying to see that new action film they’ve been advertising like crazy on TV. Let me know baby XO.My mouth went dry as I let out an incredulous snort.Baby!?Who the fuckisthis bitch? My ey
The Butterfly Knot Chapter Two | Don't Mess With The Whistle
❀ Kate ❀ We REALLY need a bigger mirror up here. I squinted at myself critically into the compact glass square above my dingy locker, rubbing a generous amount of 60 SPF sunscreen into my neck and chest vigorously. Joyner Lucas' "Broke and Stupid" was playing on the small back radio we were allowed to have while working, and I bobbed my head slightly to the chill beat as I finished up. Not bothering to fix my newly cut hair into it's usual low ponytail, I studied the chestnut strands brush against my shoulder blades while adjusting the navy blue and fire engine red racer back one piece suit I wore. It was an alright day; I didn't hate what I saw in the mirror for once. There! Ready, set, glow. “Enjoy your lunch, Kater Tot. Hey, could you grab me a bag of gummy worms from the concession stand if you’re headed that way? The sour ones.” Tristan Blankenship, my current on duty supervisor, asked absently from where he

◦◦ Sawyer ◦◦ Three hours later “This chick must’ve been a mermaid in her last life.” I mumbled to myself softly as I watched thatgorgeouslifeguard swiftly emerge from the sparkling water for the millionth time since we bumped elbows; Regaining her composure briefly before trotting around the beach with this ridiculously adorable, carefree smile. Her bronzed skin glimmered and shone in the sun shamelessly. She stood out from everyone else without even having to try. Dark strands were plastered around her oval face and long neck, as the remainder of her wet wavy hair danced behind in the wind. She looked like she just stepped out of one of those oldSports Illustratedmagazines I used to catch my dad reading in secret as a kid. Not in a bad way, though. She had something those sleazy broads didn’t;Class. That hottie’s fuckinglegs
