Chapter 13

Owen

I spent the rest of the night between Tanith’s legs, making up for lost time. I had months to make up for—hell, even years. She had been right there at Pembroke all that time, and I hadn’t even known. If I had . . .

Fuck, if I had, then everything would be different.

At dawn, I crept back to my room, leaving her all melted and sleepy, and took a quick shower before grabbing a couple hours of sleep. I wanted to be fresh and ready to go on the offensive with Tanith before she left. My mother couldn’t know we were fooling around, obviously, but there were so many places in this house where we could sneak off and hide. She would never be the wiser.

But maybe she should be the wiser?

I ignored the thought. While it didn’t matter if my mother knew or not, it was easier for everyone—Tanith included—if she didn’t, so there was no need to make things harder on ourselves. I wasn’t that worried about it anyway.

My mother didn’t matter. Proving to Tanith that we were meant to spend the months before graduation fucking constantly mattered.

But I must have done something right karmically because when I woke up and went down to breakfast, only Tanith and the two other interns were there. No parents or Felix in sight.

“Ms. Preston sends her apologies, but something came up at the Gotham offices,” the housekeeper was telling the interns as I walked in. “She and Mr. Montgomery had to go into the city first thing.”

“A magazine emergency on New Year’s Day?” I asked doubtfully, sitting down next to Tanith and helping myself to a platter of fresh fruit. There hadn’t been any Preston emails in my inbox or texts from my mother demanding my help, so it couldn’t be that important. Then again, my mother wasn’t much for holidays, or rest, in general.

My guess was any excuse to leave the quiet and isolation of Bay House behind and go back to the crowded energy of the city was good enough for her. And, of course, my father went with her—over twenty years of marriage hadn’t made him any less besotted with her—and he hated any amount of time they were apart, no matter how short.

Normally, it was vaguely gross to me—who wanted to think about their dad constantly wanting to shag their mum? But sitting next to Tanith at the breakfast table and having to fight off the urge to tackle her to the floor and mount her was making me reconsider. Maybe my dad had the right idea following my mum around whenever she traveled.

“Where’s Felix?” I asked the housekeeper, letting my fingers trail over Tanith’s knee under the table. She was wearing a short gray dress with colorful tights and a long, trendy scarf. The kind of scarf I could tie her wrists together with later . . .

The housekeeper’s reply interrupted my reverie. “The young Mr. Montgomery left last night during the party. It was your parents’ understanding that he went back to the Manhattan house.
