Rules for surviving your brand-new step-uncle:
I broke all three before the cake was cut.
I’m twenty-two.
He’s forty.
He’s my stepmother’s big brother, which makes him the one man on this whole planet I am absolutely not allowed to want.
Shame I’ve spent five years pretending I don’t want a man I’d never even met.
So when he cornered me into displaying my artwork at his corporate headquarters, I did what any emotionally healthy adult would do.
I painted something obscene into every single canvas I shipped him.
He spotted it in under an hour.
He didn’t tell a soul.
He just backed me into a supply room and asked, very politely, what exactly I thought I was doing.
XION
She thinks the hate is convincing.
It isn’t.
I built a company on noticing what everybody else misses, and what I notice is this: she looks at me like I’m the one thing she can’t have, then paints me a filthy joke and dares me to laugh.
She’s twenty-two.
She’s Graham'''s daughter.
She’s my sister’s stepchild.
There’s no equation where this ends cleanly.
I’ve run the numbers.
I’m going to ruin us both anyway.

- Don’t look at him.
Don’t like him.
Definitely don’t find him half-naked at your father’s wedding.
