this popping in to check on us and unnerving us is making us lose ourtrain of thought and momentum. We have a schedule to keep, Sir, and we willdeliver on the date. Do we have an understanding that you will leave us to it?Or…” he tapped the nuzzle of the gun against Langley’s wrinkly skin.

          “Okay, okay,” Langley said. “I’ll call myguys off and leave you guys alone for the rest of the time. But one week is allyou have.”

          “No more, no less,” Thomas said.

          Langley actually smiled at that and said,“You know, for a Science Genius, you’ve got big balls.”

          Thomas said, “I know. I’m well-hung.”

          Langley laughed for a while, before lookingat Thomas closely. “That is definitely something we have in common.”  He said,“You have my word we’ll leave for now and leave you guys to solving the rest ofthe puzzles. But we will be back, and I will find out who the hell is my son.”

          Langley walked out of the room with the restof his men following to and through the front door, just as Sutton got up fromthe floor.

          They filed past him glaring at him as theywent.

          “Hey, why are they leaving?” he asked,walking into the library.

          We all looked at Thomas, who had grownbraver since he decided to screw that provision about keeping away from havingromantic relations with me to fucking me senseless.

          “So, what’s next, Mr. Sloane?” Thomas asked.“What’s the next puzzle?”

          “Well,” Sloane said, sitting back down inhis chair and taking a sip of his coffee. “Glad we can move on.”

          “You’d think?” Ash exclaimed, running hishands through his hair.

 

Epilogue

Kaley

“Hold on,” Sloane said, taking out a piece of paper.He looked at me, Thomas and Ash.

Then shook his head.

“What?” Ash asked.

“Something’s changed,” Sloane said.

“What happened?” Seb asked.

“Someone violated the provision in the will. The ruleabout not having romantic relations with Ms. Kaley,” Sloane said.

My heart dropped. How could Sloane have found outabout what happened between Thomas and me? And Ash and me?

Shoot. What could he do about it?

I saw Thomas’ face turn pale and Ash looking sick.

“I’m afraid we’ll have to look into it,” Sloane said.“Then act accordingly.”

Oh no!

“What would happen?” I asked. “I’m so sorry the ruleswere violated, but…sometimes we just can’t help how we feel, and…”

“Kaley,” Sloane said. “We will look into it, and see.”

“Now what?” Seb asked.

“Part 3,” Sloane said.

“Family is more than blood and genes, but loyalty,bonds, and unity. Now that you know within the family, not every one of myheirs have my blood. Find out who. And decide what it means to be ‘family’.”

 

Seb, Ash, and Thomas looked at each other. Their faceswere a mixed palette of confusion, anger, sadness, and bewilderment.

Mr. Keystone was turning out to be crueler than Ithought. But then again, I couldn’t believe Mrs. Keystone had an affair withthat Langley fellow. A mobster of all things. And one of my Keystone boys was aproduct of that union. No matter what, I loved all of my boys. More than ever.And I would do anything to protect them. Even when I believe Mr. Keystone hadyet to unleash the biggest secrets of all.

Again, what role was I to play in all this? That hadyet to be revealed, and now… with Langley involved and who knows what…this gameis getting more and more deadlier.

Kaley, Seb, Thomas, and Ash’sstory will continue in Book 5 of The House Series.
