Cousin X Cousin Novels & Stories

“Why are you scowling at an adorable picture of my baby cousin?” “Isn’t Dahlia technically your second cousin? Or is it cousin once removed?” “Cousin once removed.” She threw her dirty sock at me. “Don’t avoid the question.” “I wasn’t scowling at your baby cousin once removed,” I corrected as I slid the phone into the back pocket of my jeans. “I was scowling at Bennett bragging that he gets to hang out with an adorable infant while I have to go research answers that probably don’t exist and fall further into existential dread as our life crumbles before our eyes.”

“But she said she didn't have any siblings.” Ma'am Safira paused for a moment. “Cousin,” said Ma'am Safira suddenly. “I mean Axton is Xania's cousin that she treats as her older brother so they're that close.” The two got what she mean. “Ah. I thought he’s her boyfriend,” Ma'am Jacky said as Vince wished his Auntie hadn't spoken. “It's impossible for that to happen,” Ma'am Safira said. “I know right. Isn't it Vince?” Ma'am Jacky teased her nephew.

Thankfully, it wasn't the kind of relationship that they had in mind. "Is he your step-brother?" asked Aurora tentatively. "But uncle didn't marry again, right?" "What are you thinking about?" chuckled Vivienne at Aurora's words. "If we speak strictly, he is my distant cousin. But since I have the closest relationship with him, he is like my brother. So rather than calling him cousin, I call him brother. I don't see a difference anyway." "Oh," responded Aurora in understanding. "Then shall we go for dinner? We can continue to chat while eating."

She stopped the car and invited me inside the café while getting out of the car. "Leila is your mother and my baby sister, while Pandora and Francis are Chad's parents." Explaining, Layla walked behind me while I take the seat. "You mean, Pandora is your sister-in-law and my aunt, While Francis is your brother and my uncle." I mocked her. How can they be normal? Affair with a cousin is heinous for me. Because I consider my cousin to be a sort of sibling and in my case, Chad is my first cousin. We share few genes. We are genetically linked. Maybe I am over-reacting about the situation, but To me, Chad is like my brother.

“Wait?! Osiston? As in Warrior Osiston, is your cousin and my uncle cousin or whatever?” I feel like my brain is turning to mush with all the new information. “I may need a map for the family tree we have going right now and you have only told me about like five people.”

What was this guy's problem? "Sorry, but who are you?" I countered. He cracked a smile and said, "I'm Dustin. I'm Hunter's step-cousin. So, what can I do for you?" I was taken aback. I wasn't expecting to meet another one of Hunter's family members. "Step cousin? What does that even mean?" I asked. Dustin chuckled as if my confusion entertained him. "It means our families got mixed up in a complicated way." I nodded. It wasn't nearly as complicated as Hunter and I's relationship right now. "Yeah, I guess so. Is Hunter here, though?"

The moment the door clicked shut behind them her mother turned, eyes bright and far too knowing. “He looks at you the same way he did when you were nineteen and thought no one noticed.” Anna opened the wardrobe like the clothes inside needed rearranging. “He’s my cousin, Mum.” “Distant.” Her mother sat on the edge of the bed, smoothing the duvet. “And you’re not fooling anyone with that tone.”

Graham made a few notes in her notebook, giving Mom and Dad a glowing review. "Thank you for your time," she said before she and Ms. Porter stood up to leave. All of a sudden, Izzy choked out a sob and said, "Ms. Graham, can you please talk to my younger cousin, Melanie, for me? She always treats me like I'm her enemy. I just want us to get along peacefully." Ms. Graham frowned at Mom and Dad. Mom's smile stiffened, and she quickly explained, "Children always compete for attention. It's just normal—"

Xavier did not want to see me? "Xavier, she... Who is it?" I asked coldly. Xavier then turned his gaze to me, his face very calm, "Bonnie, my cousin." Cousin? A blood relative? I relaxed a little bit, but I was still wary and said, "Are you related beyond three generations?" Xavier didn' t say anything, but the Bonnie next to him said, "We have a common great-grandfather, not very close in blood, but we are very close. Xavier and I have been in constant contact since we were kids, and Xavier has always taken care of me."

Quin lifts a slender shoulder. “I just want her to settle in before Aunt Reyna goes on the attack.” His hand brushes the small of my back, and my wolf is mollified by his touch. Aunt… “Are you guys related?” “Cousins,” they say in unison. We start walking back toward the clearing, and Quin gives us a quick goodbye, saying she’ll stop by to see me later. “Glad to see you moving more freely around the pack,” Kade says once we’re alone.
