Matt
Every timeI brushed against Raven, it sent a surge of desire right through me to my cock. What had she done to me? I felt like a teenager discovering sex for the first time. It was all I could think about. Fucking Raven.
Of course, I had a healthy sex drive. Who didn’t love sex? But this was so much more than that. Ineededher. And that was fucking terrifying.
The bond we’d formed seemed to click into place when we finally gave in. Okay, when she finally gave in. I’d wanted to fuck her since the first moment I saw her. That hair, those lips. Her curves were those of a goddess. And damn, she was just as good in the sack as I hoped. Actually, she was better.
I could hardly focus on the conversation during lunch. But I suppose that wasn’t so new. I tried to zone out whatever my mother said when she was around. She was old fashioned and had zero filter. Half of what she said when I did listen didn’t affect me.
Zach was the smarter one. We both knew it. He picked everything up first. From reading to magic. He was wicked smart. I was smart, too, but not the same kind of smart.
I was pretty sure my mom’s will was only in his name. And that was fine with me. That meant I wouldn’t have to deal with the money hungry relatives or the lawyers after she passed. I’d go live in a hut somewhere and let Zach deal with the fallout.
“Matthew,” my mother called my name and I looked at her, plugging myself back into the conversation.
“Sorry, what was that?” I asked.
She pursed her lips and gave me her signature disappointed look. It didn’t scare me the same way it had when I was a kid. “I asked you, when is your next meeting with your parole officer?”
“Oh, tomorrow,” I said.
“I get to skip that one,” Raven said. “Good behavior and all.”
“Keep rubbing it in,” I said.
“I’m still mad at you for taking the fall like that, but I guess when it comes with me only having to see Officer M once a month, I’m glad you did,” she said.
I smiled. It was the first time she’d really seemed to appreciate my admission of guilt. While she’d thanked me, her words always seemed to be followed by comments that I shouldn’t have done it. I wanted her to appreciate what I did. Besides, it wasn’t that big of a deal.
So what if I have to meet with a creepy PO once a week? I’d be out of here by June and I was sure my mom would find a way to end my meetings once I graduated.
“Well, I’d like to have a conversation with Dr. Green about all of this before I leave,” she said.
“I’m not sure what good that will do,” I said. “They’re pretty excited that they get to corner an Obscure.”
“Nobody corners us, ever,” she said. “You played them. And you should be proud of that.”
I wasn’t sure how to respond to that. Being part of such a well-connected family meant that we got away with things. Even when we shouldn’t. It was something that used to bother me more. As I got older, I learned that with wealth came certain privileges. It was a matter of telling myself that eventually, I’d have to pay for what I’d been given.
I was hoping Raven could help me with that. Seeing her reaction to the things that were handed to me made me start to question things again. It made me want to be a better person.
My mother set her napkin on her plate and Jenny swooped in to take the dishes away.
“The food was delicious,” Raven said. “Thank you for inviting me. And thank you for the box of memories. It means the world to me.”
“I’m glad you like it dear,” she said, in that false mothering tone she used when she was trying to impress people.
I had to fight not to frown at her. She was my mom, but we’d mostly been raised by the staff at the various houses we were dragged to as kids.
Our father had been more involved in our lives but he passed two years ago. It still hurt.
“I’d like a tour,” my mom announced. “Which of my sons will escort me around the school?”
“It can’t have changed all that much,” I said.
She lifted an eyebrow. “Well then, I think I know who will be giving me that tour.”
