“Gotta own it.” I wink.

“Thank you!” she huffs.

I salute her before taking off out the door. My phone vibrates in my pocket from a new message in my family group chat. With a groan, I unlock my phone and read a new message from my youngest brother.

Rowan

So did you find out if the kid is yours?

Iris would never tell Rowan about my issue, so that only leaves one person.

Declan is officially dead to me. The asshole.

Who said anything about a kid?

Rowan

Declan spilled the news when he called me this morning and gave a speech about condoms and safe sex.

Does anything remain a secret in this family anymore? Ever since my brothers met the loves of their lives, it’s like everyone knows everything about my business.

Dick-lan

I didn’t give you a speech.

Iris

It sounded like one to me.

Rowan

I agree. Rowan was so moved, he ran out to Costco to panic-buy a pack of 1,000 condoms. —Zahra

1,000? You’ll be dead by the time you finish the box.

Rowan sends a middle finger emoji.

Iris

AH! Why isn’t Zahra in this chat yet?

Dick-lan

Because it’s for Kanes only.

Look at Declan acting like a dick again. *pretends to be shocked*

Rowan


A notification pops up letting us all know Zahra, Rowan’s girlfriend and Dreamland-obsessed adult, has been added to the conversation by Iris. If I didn’t feel chronically single before, fifth wheeling in a goddamn group chat would have pushed me over the edge.

Zahra

Hi everyone!!!

She sends another message with a variation of hearts and smiling faces.
