CHAPTER 12

A HARD LUMP twists my stomach, making me sick as I think of Mother and Howard McNaughton together. So that was the reason he did what he did, and the way he did it. It was all about Mother. He intended to not only ruin Father, but to hurt Mother in the worst possible way. No wonder Keary hates his father; he really is a monster.

“I don’t want to talk about any of this right now.” I’ve had enough. I want to puke all over my parents’ floor, but instead I run to my room, slam the door, and pull my hair back as I retch into the toilet. The memories flood my mind: Therese pleasing Keary, the lecherous look that Keary’s father gave me at the clubhouse, and Giselle’s face as she was moaning—the agony and ecstasy wrenching the loveliness of her features. I heave out all the contents of my stomach and inhale a huge gulp of air, finally feeling purged of malice.

I’m so cold now. An uncontrollable shiver grips my body like an epileptic. I want to chew down on a thick strap of leather to keep from biting my tongue. My fist clenches and I beat the toilet seat like it’s a disobedient child. Pain shoots up through my arm and I realize I’ve been hitting the seat so hard that my hand and wrist are bruised up and red.

It’s all so wrong and so twisted. Mother and Keary’s father, a couple? Father fucking that slut from the office—she gave me chocolate for Christ’s sake. And because of all this stupidity I’ve had to endure years of Mother and Father’s fighting, and Mother screwing and sucking every young thing that came along? Why don’t they all just grow up and act like civilized adults? I feel like I’m living inside the world of Planet of the Apes.

If there’s one good thing to come of the collapse of Father’s business, it’s that maybe they’ll both sober up. I’m not paying a penny for any more alcohol to fuel their messed up lives. What I will do, with all my mental power, is to try and put Harris House and our family on solid ground. I swear it on my life.

I take a deep breath and lift myself up, determined not to fail, and instantly think of Keary. The text he sent. Shit. I scramble over to my nightstand and grab my phone and quickly tap out a response. Situation seriously messed up. When can I see you? Sighing, I toss the phone onto the bed and lean back, staring at the ceiling.

A moment later my phone buzzes and a thrill races through me. He’s been waiting for me. I grab the phone and read his text. I’m here in town. How about now? Can you get away or do you need a lift? I want to kiss him. I quickly text him back. Need lift, servants and driver all gone. Parents a wreck. Meet u at the gate? Only then do I think about the fact that my mobility is shot with our driver gone.
