BryantDon's family has a LOT of drama. It's a good thing they are in Texas, far from where Reese could smack them.

I know that some shady ass shit has gone down in the Frost family. People have wronged their partners. Like how mom broke dad and mamãe in high school with her lies that made mamãe out to be a cheater. And while I guess I can’t be too angry cause, since I wouldn’t have been born without her underhanded tactics, I still don’t like what she did. And some people have also wronged their families. Such as when Emma disowned Eddie for being gay until it suited her needs. On multiple occasions growing up, Emma also interfered in her brother Merrick’s love life to send girls running. His wife was the only one who didn’t run and knocked Emma on her ass. There are others, but Emma tends to be the most significant antagonist in the Frost clan. Of the ways people have wronged each other in my family, no one has ever slept with someone the other was involved with. That’s just fucked up, and even worse to do it on the wedding day in the church! Like there’s a bullet train ticket to hell if I ever

I don’t know what I did to get someone like Reese in my life. Is it karma trying to balance all the shit I dealt with earlier in my life? You know what, I’m not going to question it. Because I know the more I doubt a good thing, the more likely I will lose it. I already thought I had lost her once. I don’t want to do that again. So no questioning any of this. I’m going to roll with it. I’m getting laid and spending time with a goddess. I’m probably dead or in a coma, and this is me dreaming. But with a dream this good, who would want to wake up? Certainly not me. I was a bit slow in getting dressed, but I was distracted. How is a man supposed to focus when a woman like Reese is naked in their bedroom taking her sweet ass, and I mean sweet ass best ass I’ve seen in my life, time drying off and getting dressed. “Are you going to stand there gawking with your towel tenting? Or are you going to get dressed so we can eat? You did promise me food. And as satisfying as sex is, it doesn’t s

I’ve had a permanent smile on my face since leaving Don’s. Not because I left Don’s, I’d preferred to have just stayed. This smile is the one he put there, not just because he fucks like a champ. The sex is excellent. We have intense physical chemistry, no doubt about that. But I honestly enjoy spending time with him. He’s funny, intelligent, and endearing. No man I’ve been involved with ever made me feel I was unique in a good way. Now I need to keep my mother out of this. I’m not too fond of keeping it a secret, but right now, that’s the only choice I have regarding her. At least until I can build a solid case against her. What she’s doing is blackmail—threatening my career and his home to try and keep us apart. She truly is just another detestable Frost. So few of the Frost family turn out decent. Uncle Shaw, Uncle Adam, and their cousin Sebastian are the few Frosts that turned out good. Merrick, Lily, and Josalyn are good people, but they are only Frosts in name as they are Great

I was on cloud nine. I didn’t feel this happy when I was dating Jennifer, and I was going to marry that whore. Things feel different. Things feel better with Reese, even if it’s too early to say something like that. But the spark between us isn’t something that can be ignored. Other than her mother being a mega bitch I can’t find a single fault in Reese. Not that Reese can be held responsible for the reprehensible cunt her mother is. Speaking of reprehensible family, I groaned seeing my brother Jordan’s name on my caller id. I have no reason to answer his call. I know it sounds petty as it was a decade ago, but the fact remains that asshole fucked my bride on our wedding day in the synagogue and NEVER apologized. He never took ownership of his actions. He just acted like he was the innocent party and that I was the one who hurt him. I swiped the decline sending him straight to voicemail. Just seeing his name has started to put a damper on my good mood. I pushed my annoyance vergi

“No, he went downstairs in a huff and is being force-fed chocolates by little Immanuel to cheer his dad up. What happened? Did you get into a fight?” Elaine questioned as I heard my parents’ upstairs guest bathroom door squeak. I’ve told them a million times to oil those hinges.“Well, he can keep sulking. He was being rude to Donald and even stole my phone to call him since he didn’t answer for him or your husband.” Connie explained.“You’re talking to Donald? Can I talk to him?” Elaine sounded strangely excited at the prospect.I’ve never met her or talked to her. She and Jordan only married a little over a year ago and had their son a couple of months ago. I’ve only met Leah because she was with Caleb before I moved. And of my nieces and nephews, I’ve only met my oldest niece Donna as she was once when I moved. I’ve only seen the rest in pictures and talked to on the phone during holidays when mom would put them on to greet me.“Oh sure…” Connie agreed, handing the phone off. I’m no

“Elaine? Where are you going?” Connie called out, and I realized Elaine was taking the phone elsewhere.“JORDAN CHRISTOPHER HUNTER! YOU GET YOUR BUTT OVER HERE RIGHT NOW!”Elaine shouted. I can imagine the scene she’s creating in my parents’ living room with all eyes turning to her.“Elaine? What’s wrong? Are you okay?” I faintly heard Jordan questioning.“I have Donald on the phone. And I now understand why I have never met him, why he hasn’t been home in ten years.” Elaine huffed.“That was a long time ago. It’s on Don for being unwilling to forget and move on.” Jordan sighed.I clenched my jaw because he made it sound like this was all on me. Am I petty for holding a grudge this long? Sure. But what he did is unforgivable, especially when he’s never apologized. “Forget?! Move on!” Elaine scoffed. Ela, please take the children to another room. I don’t wish for innocent ears to hear any of this.” Elaine’s voice became sweet as sugar as she politely ordered my mother around.“Elaine, d

I’d been trying to think of the best way to broach asking Don to the Frost holiday party. Sure showing up with him would piss my mother off and make the point that she can’t control my life. But it feels like a big ask for someone I’ve just started seeing. Which am I seeing him? I mean, we see each other. What I’m questioning is, what are we? Is this casually dating with sex? Or are we officially dating? We’ve had sex more times than we’ve gone out. If we are just casual, would it be appropriate to invite him to the party? If we are dating, would it be too soon and too much to bring him around my family? He’s only been exposed to Darius, Elijah, and Forrest for a basis of what a Frost is like. He’s met my mother too. But one out of four would make her seem like the exception rather than the rule. It could be deemed cruel and unusual punishment to bring a new boyfriend to the Frost holiday party. I’m half Frost and don’t even want to go. My cousins are lucky they can use the kids as

So Reese probably has a point. I don’t want her to think that our relationship is strictly physical. I don’t want to see a day come when we are in the same room, and I don’t feel the urge to touch her. But just because I have that urge doesn’t mean I always need to act on it. As I returned to the sitting room after tossing the condom, I remembered why we were even in the sitting room. Beyond eating the food, I smiled as I walked in to see Reese putting caviar on a latke. I folded my arms, watching her take a bite and the way she did a little happy dance. Absolutely adorable. “I see you like latke with caviar.” I teased, leaning over to dip an everything bagel chip into the whitefish dip. “It was good. Initially, I wasn’t sure, but I can see why your mom would like it.” Reese blushed at being caught eating. “Sorry, I started without you.” “You don’t need to wait for me to start anything.” I assured her. I’m not sure why but she started to laugh.”Why are you laughing?” I asked, sitti

My mother hasn’t spoken to me or anyone at the party since she was forcefully removed. She only speaks to Uncle Shaw at the office when the business requires her to; even then, it’s strictly professional. I don’t think he minds. Of course, now that there was an engagement party, I have formally told the rest of the family that we are engaged and expecting. Both sets of my grandparents are thrilled and look forward to the wedding and meeting new great-grandchildren. No one has officially lived at the estate since Great Aunt Cordelia died. The property went into a trust and is owned by Grandfather and his two brothers. Grandfather insisted that as we’d discussed an outdoor ceremony, we allow him to host the whole event at the Frost Estate. While I don’t want a big formal event, I have to admit the estate has beautiful landscaping, and if the weather doesn’t hold, we can go inside. So it made the perfect venue. Don and I were still going to stick to our more rustic and subdued affair. W

There has been no slowing down just because I discovered I was pregnant with twins or because Don proposed. That is why everything has been moving at super speed around here. There’s a lot to do, and when you think about it not a lot of time to do it. The twins are due September 13th, so we are in a time crunch. And as much as Don and I would love to renovate the house ourselves, we had to concede with twins coming, we were not going to have the time, and it would be unsafe to have the place under construction. So as his gift to us for our engagement and that we are giving him his first grandchildren, Dad took over renovations. While a crew was working on the house, we stayed in my old apartment, so I wouldn’t breathe in the construction dust. Dad covered everything about the house, listening to our input on what we wanted just like he would for any client. He was paying extra special attention because it would be the home his grandchildren are raised in. That is probably why I’ve se

The last couple of months has been busy. All in good ways, of course, but a lot more activity than usual, that’s for sure. Reese made her mind up after her mother made it clear she couldn’t and wouldn’t apologize for her behavior. She resigned, much to the disappointment of many in her family. Thankfully none have held the decision against her. They hold it against Sophia. She’s been doing great working at her dad’s construction company as their in-house lawyer. It may not be a big deal in court cases, but she’s happy, and that is all that matters. The job is more about drawing up contracts and handling any legal hiccups that may arise, so very different from what she was doing. It’s much less stressful for her, and the work environment is much more welcoming. I’m pretty sure I’d get dirty looks if I showed up at the Frost law firm because Reese forgot lunch or her briefcase. While at the Nikolaidis Construction office, I get warm smiles and welcoming greetings as I go to her office.

“I will still never approve of this relationship. But when it implodes, I will be there for your Reese to help you pick up the pieces. I wash my hands of your personal life. But I do ask you to reconsider resigning seriously. Think about your career. I will see you in the office, and I hope you’ve made the right choice.” Mother went into her professional mode, smoothing down her jacket. “Have a good new year.” She tacked on while walking out my door. I don’t know what came over me, but I crumbled to my knees in tears. “How… how can she be so indifferent? To be so heartless to her only daughter.” I sobbed, finding myself pulled into Don’s arms. “It’s her way of protecting herself. It ain’t right, but she does love you, Reese. She’s going about it poorly, but she wants to protect you. Give her time and space. She may come around.” Don tried to reassure me as he stroked my hair as I cried into his chest. Those twenty minutes on my living room floor were the most I’ve cried in a long ti

Yes, I was hiding from my mother. No, I’m not proud of it. I’m twenty-seven and hiding from my mother at my boyfriend’s. The sweet man didn’t call me out on it until he had to. I know he’s right, I have to face her eventually, but more than having to face her, I need clothes. While his clothes are comfy, I can’t wear them to dad’s for a party or work, even if it’s to resign. At least whatever had my stomach angry went away after that tea and toast. Or maybe it was talking things out with Don. Who’s to say? I’m inclined to believe the latter. Knowing he will back me no matter which path I take helps. And it’s sweet of him to want to believe there is a chance my mother will apologize. I, however, am not going to hold my breath. The universe is against me today. First throwing up this morning and now finding my mother pounding on my door like she’s the cops with a warrant. Given her general attitude, I doubt she’s here to apologize for her behavior at the party. She only looks frazzled

It went better than expected for all the fears I’d built up about attending that Frost party. Okay, sure, we had to deal with shit from her mother and ex, but otherwise, it was a good night. Reese’s Frost grandparents had her back, and her grandfather wanted her to be a partner at the firm. We haven’t discussed what she is going to do about it. I haven’t asked because I don’t want to stress her about it. She’s spent the last two nights at my place, bumming around in my clothes since she hasn’t been to her place since I picked her up for the party. While I’m not going to complain about her not wearing undergarments or getting to see her in my clothes, I am worried about her avoiding her place. She hasn’t said it, but I think she’s avoiding going home because she fears her mother will be waiting for her. She needs to feel comfortable and safe at her place of work, and if she can’t feel that way because of her mother, then leaving may be best. I’ve wanted to let her sort her family shit

I’ve always tried to be honest with my grandparents. My grandmother especially seems to have a sixth sense to know when someone is lying to her. I’ve never been too forward in discussing my issues with my mother. She is their only daughter, and I wouldn’t want them to think me talking poorly about her was a reflection on their parenting. I was worried about how they’d react. I didn’t want to disappoint my grandfather by saying I was resigning from the firm. He said they intended to offer me a partner role in the firm. Which before tonight would be a dream come true. I think it’s the dream of every Frost that goes into law someday to be a partner in the family’s firm. I don’t know what I expected to happen, but for Grandfather to drag Mother over and reprimand her was not it. He essentially told her that as a parent and a superior in the firm, she has no say in my personal life. I never knew my grandparents disapproved of Michael. I mean, I never doubted they approved of dad. They are

Formally meeting her mother was as joyful as when the bitch tried busting into my house in the early morning hours after the night Reese and I met. I’m a peaceful man, not known for having a temper, but that woman makes me want to commit violence. And Michael ain’t much better. He reminds me of my brother in his snob moments. Unlike Sophia, I could hit Michael and not feel bad. That Cornelius fella, well, he can take a long walk off a short pier. I don’t like to judge a book by its cover, but the man looked as bland as toast. No toast at least has some character. He’s more like a slice of store-brand white bread. Maybe he has more depth than I’m giving him credit for, and he has a personality outside of formal events like this. I don’t care because fuck that guy. I’m with Reese, and unless she dumps me, that isn’t changing. I was happy when Reese gave the excuse of wanting to see her grandparents for us to get away from her mother, stepfather, and white bread boy. Too bad her mother

At some point tonight, I knew we would have to face my mother and stepfather, more so the former. While you’d think we could blend and hide amongst all the guests, I knew it was inevitable. Unless we found a group of athletes to stand with, I would stand out. It helps that I chose a sparkling red dress. So I guess subconsciously, I wanted to stand out. I wanted people to take notice of us. Because despite that, Don feels inferior, like he needs to do things such as buy a new suit and rent that over-the-top jaguar; I am damn proud to be here with him. Bringing him tonight was my fuck you to my mother and a demonstration to all I decide who I date. Growing up, I struggled with my self-esteem and put so much of my value on her praise. Dad and mamãe have always praised me and encouraged my aspirations, which should be a good thing and was. It made the fact that Mother rarely praised me more noticeable. Now that she’s got us in her sights, the little kid in me is curling up into a ball in
