Chapter 51 - Darius
Today we were on-site finishing up the inside of a new office building our mother's company had constructed over the spring and summer. “There’s two of my favorite nephews.” Uncle Apollo greeted, pulling us both into a bear hug, one arm crushing each of us against him. Now we aren’t small guys but compared to Uncle Apollo, we are scrawny. “Nice to see you too.” I grunted, trying to breathe.
“Can’t breathe.” Elijah half teased. Uncle Apollo let us go and grinned at us, taking stock of us like he hadn’t just seen us three months ago at the last job we worked together. “Something’s different. What’s changed?” he asked, his eyes narrowing as he inspected us. Elijah and I shared a confused look then looked at our cousins for any help.
Useless as all they did was shrug. “I

The Princes of Ravenwood Chapter 52 - Riko
Dad has been quiet since grandma, and I got back from the mall. Grandpa, of course, had plenty of questions. It was sweet how he was so interested in the most menial things grandma was telling him. He, of course, thought Cassidy sounded like a good friend to have. But, of course, he thinks that. She's a lot like grandma. So after I took everything up to my room to put away the new clothes, I texted the triplets.I opened a can of worms when I sent that picture of the shopping bags and told them about the items I bought in Victoria’s Secrets. Though I have to admit there’s a part of me that wanted them to know. That wants them to fantasize about me. That likes knowing Forrest is right now masturbating thinking about me.I like knowing I have this effect on them. It made things seem fair because they all have this effect on me. So I decide
The Princes of Ravenwood Chapter 53 - Forrest
I haven’t been able to get Riko off my mind since this morning. Not that I was trying all that hard. My distracted mind did cause me to mess up a few times during practice. I didn’t even care that I got my ass chewed out by Coach VanBrocklin for it. All I wanted was to get through the hours that separated me from seeing Riko. Though if I’m this distracted by missing her, I can’t imagine my brothers. If they mess up at the construction site, Uncle Apollo will kick their asses.And ugh, she about killed me telling us about how she went shopping and bought s

Riko was smiling at me, squeezing my hand, a blush forming on her face. She's so damn cute. How can her dad, of all people, not realize how amazing she is? Her grandparents both liked my answer based on the smiles they were giving me. Her dad snorted, but even he couldn’t say I was wrong.Ryōta sighed and adjusted how he was sitting to sit up even straighter. Like that would make him look scary. “That’s all well and good. But do you and your brothers not understand or see that this sort of relationship is wrong? Polygamy is illegal in all fifty stat

“So what are the odds they even watch the movie?” Darius chuckled as he tossed me a controller and booted up Street Fighter. “Do you mean them actually going to the movies? Or do you mean them not paying attention once in the theater?” I chuckled, picking my go-to character Zangief. “Both.” he shrugged as the fight began.Playing fighting games with my brothers while fun can be predictable. We may not read each other’s minds, but we know each other enough to predict what the others will do next. We make a kick-ass team when we do co-op online games. People actually hate when they see our screennames pop up on the opposite team. It makes me wonder if our girl plays video games. On the other hand, she’s proven to be fairly in sync with us so that she could make a good addition to our co-op gaming.“Hmm…
The Princes of Ravenwood Chapter 56 - Darius
I was managing to hold it together. Guess it pays to be the serious one. Makes me more in tune with the Frost side and the innate ability to control my emotions. I need to keep in control right now. I can’t afford to let my emotions rule me. Mom’s too big of a mess right now to drive. I’ve never seen her like this. But then again none of us have ever really been hurt before. Sure we’ve had some cuts and bruises, we are boys that play sports and enjoyed going to construction sites with our uncle. But nothing ever landed us in the hospital. Haven’t ever stepped foot in one before in my life. And now I have to because my youngest brother and girlfriend are there. I don’t even know how serious their conditions are. I just hope it’s only minor and the hospital trip was just a formality to be sure. Please let them be okay. We only just found Riko. I don
The Princes of Ravenwood Chapter 57 - Forrest
I hate this. I hate all of this. I’ve never been in a hospital before. Sure I’ve had injuries here and there over the years, especially playing basketball. But they’ve been minor and could be handled by my team doctor or my primary care doctor. And now the first time I’m in a hospital, and it’s with a broken leg and bruised ribs. But worst of all, Riko is here with me, and I have no idea how she’s doing.“Fuck! This is my fault.” I yelled, shoving away the tray of food some nurse had left me. “Forrest, it isn’t your fault.” Elijah sighed, trying to reassure me. On some level, I know he’s right. But I also know a part of him does blame me. I was the one driving. I was the one that couldn’t get out of the way in time. I put Riko here.And now, not only do I not get my date with he
The Princes of Ravenwood Chapter 58 - Riko
Ugh, my head hurts. It’s like a whole road crew is at work doing double time inside my skull. My whole body aches, and I’m not sure why. I tried to gain my bearings and collect my thoughts. The last thing I remember was driving with Forrest. He was so sweet and understanding. Proving yet again that he and his brothers don’t get jealous, at least not of each other. And then… then headlights.My eyes shot open, the bright fluorescent lights above me making me squint. “FORREST!” I shouted, sitting up despite the pain. “Whoa…. Slow down, Riko.” the familiar voice of my father reached me as his hand rested on my shoulder. “You’re okay. You’re in the hospital. That dumb kid hit another car.” he explained.I furrowed my brow, closing my eyes as I felt dizzy and like I might throw up.
The Princes of Ravenwood Chapter 59 - Elijah
Hearing about Riko’s mom was a lot to take in. No wonder she didn’t talk about it. Darius said she’d dodged his questions about her mom during their date. It all makes sense. Her dad obviously has unresolved issues about his wife’s death, and if he’s never sought help to work through his grief, he certainly didn’t think to take his ten-year-old daughter. I know mental health isn’t always something people think about, and often have some sense of shame about needing help, especially for men. It’s bullshit. Or at least I think it’s bullshit. Needing help is never something to be ashamed of. But I was raised where it was seen as normal, mostly because Aunt Larissa is a psychologist. Maybe I should give her a call, see if she can recommend someone local to suggest Riko and especially her father speak with. I glanced over at Forrest and can practically
