The Hybrid Daughter

I never imagined life could turn and twist the way it has over the last decade. I was overjoyed from day one when my mother officially accepted my new stepfather Hunter. However, I kept oh having this nagging feeling that something was off, there was a secret neither were telling me. There were days where he would disappear, and mom never hinted where he had gone. He always came back, and that made me happy. Mom would look worried when he would come back, I tried asking her but, she said "You would not understand, this is adult business beyond comprehension". As if that would keep my curiosity at bay?! She should know that I have always been a curious mind, this is why I had grand dreams of attending Cambridge to become a Journalist. I enjoyed a thrilling hunt for news. As the years passed, I had never seen my mother so happy. Also, as the years passed, I was starting to feel different from my friends, I did not know what is happening to me. It felt like someth

That class felt like it was the longest class of my bloody life. I am so thankful that the week passed by quickly. Finally, my torture in the room is over and I do not have to deal with that fucking teacher anymore. All of the looks, he gave me, the caresses on my hand when he would hand me my submitted work. I still cannot forget the way he spoke my name, and how he would watch my every turn. I remember one time while passing him in the hall, I swear I felt his hands caress the side of my thigh, just above my knee which was covered by my skirt. It sent shivers down my spine, and not in a good way! I remember my last day of class what he said. "So, Ms. Fawns it is finally the summer" I sighed "Yes, it is, why did you ask me to stay after? Did I do something wrong?" he smiled "Not at all, I just wanted to see you before you left for the year, I will miss being able to have in my class since you will be in college next year," he said with a frown. I did not miss the way he sai

We got home a little after six in the evening, dad and I met mom in the dining hall. She was chewing on her thumb, and we wondered what was happening. She never did this unless she was anxious. "Luci, what is wrong?" Hunter asked. She did not seem to notice us standing there, she straightened up when her gaze fell on us, and a pleasant smile displayed on her face "Oh, I did not hear you get home, nothing is wrong, I was just worried about where you were" Hunter and I stare at her "Did you not see the note that I left you?" I ask her, I know I left one on her desk. She seems to widen her eyes briefly, I must have missed it. Hunter and I feel a little dubious, she is obviously lying but, neither of us questions her. Hunter wraps his arms around her, "actually, I took Molly out for the day" her eyes widen "Why?" I do not understand her reaction. "I received my award letter from the school, I won Valedictorian" Mom runs to me, and gives me a big hug. "Congratulations Ba

We are all standing in the lobby in awkward silence, each not knowing what to say. Whoever this man is, he looks really pissed off at my mother. The way she looking at him is a mixture of shock, slight longing, and worry. I am standing here on my Graduation day trying to comprehend my surroundings when the man in question glares viciously at my mother as he speaks.My mother has dear caught in the headlights look "What did we do wrong, Luci?" My mother's mouth gapes like a fish out of water. "What did we do wrong? where did we go wrong? We have not heard from you in Twenty Years!" my mother is pale as a ghost. He continues reprimanding her "Now, I find out that I have a brilliant Granddaughter who is graduating top of her class and you had no thought to even tell us! Let alone that you are in a serious relationship with an important person! who happens to own one of the companies I WORK FOR!!!!" I stare in shock, I am meeting my Grandfather. She quietly asks "How did you

I stand in these woods, just outside my stepfather's house, and look into the eyes of the most beautiful man I have ever seen. His name is David Lennox. I met him two weeks ago at Cambridge University, I never thought I would see him again so soon! He is so breathtaking, and God his scent is addicting! He stands there across from me, so addicting my inner self is doing a happy dance, while I drink him in, 6'3 dark auburn hair, with stormy grey eyes. Like two pools that I could just fall into and never escape from. He is drinking me in while I am staring at him. I know to some people this would seem a bit awkward if someone were to walk by but, I do not care. As happy as I am to see him, I cannot understand why he is here, and how he found me? My inner voice tells me that he was the addicting scent we noticed in London but, that is hours away from Liverpool.As we stare at each other briefly, a smile plays on his face. His eyes trail up and down my body. I fe
