“Huh?” I cried out as I sat up, my heart flying into my throat. My siblings instantly noticed the panicked expression on my face snd narrowed their eyes at me.

“Why do you sound that way? Don’t tell me you already broke up with your boyfriend.” Hugo drawled, his eyes watching me like a hawk.

“And don’t tell me that’s because of that Marco dude. That fucking bastard.” Raven added in a sharp voice and I wondered how I’d ever get to tell them about Marco once we officially get together. They clearly hated him so much, way more than Gregg did and that’s saying a lot.

“I… well…” I began but trailed off, unsure of how to respond. Memories of our last call flashed through my mind, whereby I told them I had a boyfriend cause I wanted them to stop being worried about me while I was at Marco’s wedding. They had asked to meet him and I had agreed, but right now that Zane and I were done with that pretense, I was at a loss of what to say.

“Addison? Please don’t tell me you dumped the poor dude because of your love sickness for that asshole, especially now that he’s already married.” Tristan spoke again, his gaze narrowed and I exhaled slowly. I badly wanted to tell them that Marco was also in love with me like I was in love with him, and that he ended his wedding because of me!

But I forced myself to hold those words in. There’s all freak out if I start saying that right now.

And telling them that I broke up with my supposed boyfriend was gonna make them start to worry and fuss over me once again and I didn’t want that at all. I guess that I still have to keep the lie up with them till further notice. I could easily tell them I lied about having a boyfriend later, I was sure they’d forgive me after a bit. As the youngest, they all have a soft spot for me, so I have nothing to be worried about.

“You’ve all got it wrong. I’m still with my boyfriend and we’re very kind.” I breathed out and made sure to grin as well. They didn’t instantly buy it and all narrowed their eyes at me.

“Are you lying to us right now?” Raven demanded, clearly the most suspicious of them all.

Hugo pointed out this time. “Is this boyfriend a living being or an imaginary one?” He added and
