Riley Matthews Novels & Stories

Mom lets out a soft chuckle at Alex's protective instincts before becoming serious once more. "Well, his name is Noah Matthews," she begins. "He's an English Literature teacher at New Trier Township High School. I met him a month ago when his nephew was admitted to our hospital's urgent care after having an allergic reaction." She intertwines her fingers, her voice gradually growing quieter. "He asked me out for coffee that same evening. One thing led to another, we went on a few more dates, and now," she sighs, "here we are..." Mom trails off, briefly glancing down at her still interlocked fingers.

At thirteen, Lucas is wondering if it is compulsory to pray to the deities. Today was supposedly the day that they were supposed to go to the city, but for the first time in six years, Lucas declined to come with.

Her chest rose and fell in slow, satisfied breaths, nipples still tight and flushed. Riley stepped in. Her eyes widened, pupils dilating. Her lips parted on a sharp inhale. She stood rigid for a heartbeat…shoulders tense, fingers flexing at her sides…then her gaze dragged down Scarlett’s glistening body, lingering on the creamy mess between her spread legs.

He paused, inhaling the cool night air, feeling its crispness fill his lungs and awaken the very essence of him. The moon goddess had blessed him with a gift he had never anticipated—a mate, Niylah. And with that blessing, he had discovered not just love but a profound truth about himself.

The pair of linen dolphin shorts of the same color loosely swayed as she moved towards him. "Please leave, let us meet tomorrow during the Annual meeting of the Wushi-Chin Cooperation Funds Mr Chandler Chin." Retrieving the gun placed on top of the dark sheeted bed, he stood up, inches apart from her. She felt a bit short when she looked up to meet his eyes. "Hila-" He was interrupted by her narrowed eyes that basically said 'Call me that again and your family won't have to worry about your succession'

'' I scolded Jane, only to make her smile and baby Liam giggle. "So cute," I said, watching Liam yawing in his mother's arms. "Watching you makes me wanna have a baby, but then I change my mind, seeing all the hard work you and Brandon have to put in to raise these two devils." "I hate you, Rachel," Marlin said, from behind me, crossing her arms around her chest. "No you don't," I said, tickling her, making her laugh. "See you love me,"

Walking behind them I’m met with the three foxes, and I see Rai. Rai? Who the hell is Rai? I am now completely confused over who the heck these are, but from what I feel she can see me, as she is smiling in my direction the one called mother also looks the same way, it’s there Rai speaks in authority. “Mind your eyes were they are needed not to where they desire, and speak your recalling favor to us now.” “My son’s are they in danger? Have I truly placed them in danger?” The mother asks devastated.

The guilt will never end until I make this right. "Lily…" I begin, thinking carefully of what I’m going to say. "It's true that Chloe and I were together before you came. And I’m sorry you had to find out this way. But I promise you that what she and I had wasn't real, it was a toxic relationship that I had a hard time getting out of.
