Breakfast is its usual all-out family affair and not surprisingly, Riley has slotted in seamlessly. Everyone seems to like her and she seems happy enough to be here. It’s weird, with Taylor she was already part of this world before I could invite her in, but with Riley I’m the link that has brought her here. I can see her tracking every person here, wondering who they truly are, and what their place is in my family, and how they relate to me, something I often do myself.

I wish I didn’t feel so comfortable having her here, wish she was rude, or ignorant, and I could tell them that I’ll never bring her around again, but I already know my wishes will never come true. So here she sits, by my side, surrounded by the most important people in my life, barring our little sister.

“So, Riley,” Logan clears his throat and stares at her, getting almost everyone else’s attention as he says her name. “Do you have a boyfriend?”

I can practically feel her squirm under everyone's attention, and I know Elle has turned her stare onto me completely as Riley answers quickly, “Yes,” she pauses, probably thinking about whatever went down last night. “No, I don’t know, it’s complicated.”

Logan nods like he really cares, but I see the teasing tilt of his lips, it’s one that dances across my own face from time to time. “It always is when there is a Rebel involved.”

Riley fidgets and I place my hand on her thigh again under the table and squeeze as I talk, hoping to reassure her, “Don’t meddle in someone else's affairs, when you don’t even have your own in order, little Royton.”

Logan smiles. “My affairs are always in order thank you,” He quips back in delight, and I see Lily roll her eyes at him, more than used to his bullshit.

“Oh yeah? Then maybe you should tell Donovan and your boyfriend to stop staring at one another across the table.” It’s a cheap shot, but I know Riley doesn’t want all the attention on her.

I see Linc’s jaw tighten from here, but as usual the ever unaffected Asher Donovan doesn’t so much as blink as he smiles our way, “My apologies, Riley, Conrad seems to have forgotten his table manners this morning.”

A savage grin crosses my mouth, “It’s almost like they were beaten out of me, Donovan.” I emphasize the name I know he hates so much as I flex the wrist that was broken earlier this year. His eyes darken at the reminder of what his brother and his men did to me. Not just the crash but the fucking beating I took after.

It’s a low blow and I know it, Asher took a fucking bullet to save Elle’s life and that is something none of us will ever forget, but I will also never forget who he shares his DNA with. What they did and who they did it to. If that makes me an asshole, then so be it.
