Letting go

Chapter 21

Ch. 21 / 105 Feb 19, 2026

Christian

I have to admit watching Molly put Amy back in her place was fucking funny, she wiped the floor with her and didn't back down regardless of what she said. I also hate to admit that seeing Molly like that was fucking hot and a major turn-on.

I've been nothing but an ass to her since she arrived here but still, she had my back; more importantly, she had my kid's back, and I can't forget that. Fuck she's even following Amy off the farm to make sure she leaves and already I know this is going to mess with my head even more.

"That was fucking hot!" Jack suddenly blurts out while all my brothers quickly agree including Tom.

"Molly has the biggest heart I know but she's also a tiger when she needs to be and she doesn't take kindly to anyone hurting her friends or someone she loves."

"So let me get this straight... You have been nothing but a dick to her since she arrived and yet she still had your back just now?" Jack looks straight at me as he asks me the one question that I wish he wouldn't.

"Yep!" is the only word that I manage to get out.

"That's really all you have to say?" Tom's pissed at me and I dont blame him.

"What do you want me to say?" I run my hands through my hair in frustration hating the looks that I'm getting from my brothers because I know that they are right to do it.

"That you're a fucking moran!" Callum grunts out.

"She's hiding something I know she is and until I find out what it is I can't trust her but that being said it doesn't mean that I'm not grateful to her for what she has just done!"

"So that's why you're being a dick to her, you think she's hiding something?" Tom sounds pissed and yet I can't help but feel that his tone seems off.

"I know she is, things dont add up!" Tom goes to shout at me some more but he's stopped by the sound of the door opening and Molly coming inside.

"You ok baby girl?" The smile she gives Tom is absolutely beautiful and causes something inside of me to stir. Fuck I need to get myself straight, I need to get myself laid!

"I'm good sweetie, she's gone I watched her walk right through the lane. I'm gonna grab a shower." She heads for the stairs and soon disappears out of sight and only when Tom calls my name do I realize that I was staring like fuck.

He walks up to me giving me a hurt look that I hate to see on his face before he bends down to talk quietly. "I'm not gonna have this discussion with Molly in the house, She's already having a bad day and she doesn't deserve your bollacks but this isn't over!"

Fuck he's pissed at me and honestly, I can see his point but I'm right, I know I am. He walks off towards the stairs and heads up them I assume to catch up with Molly.

"Chris, what Amy said about her cheating on you?" Callum looks worried and concerned and I appreciate it but I hate that she told them all that. I didn't tell anyone because I was embarrassed about it. For a long time, I've felt like it must have been my fault, maybe I couldn't keep her happy enough in bed I dont know but even if it's not my fault it still leaves a shit feeling inside me.

I nod my head struggling to get any words out but they know what I'm saying and I hate the looks of pity that I am getting. Jack doesn't seem all that surprised but in all honestly, I suspect that he's already been thinking that it's been going on.

"She's nothing but a bitch and she never deserved you and she certainly doesn't deserve those beautiful kids either and when I see her I'm going to tear her eyes out the fucking bitch!" I turn my head to the sound of Tom's voice. I thought he was upstairs.

"I may be pissed at the way you're treating Molly but your my brother and no matter what I have your back in this we all do and that bitch is going down and she aint getting anywhere near those kids either, I'll run away to china with them if I need to!"

As always Tom's witty humor brings a smile to my face and makes both Jack and Callum laugh. "I love you, Tom, I really do!" I say.

"I mean it Christian there's nothing I won't do for those kids!"

"That goes for all of us!" Callum quickly gets out while Jack nods his agreeance.

"I know and I love you all for it. Speaking of the kids I have a social worker coming here at 6 to check that it's ok for the kids to stay here while they investigate the claims against Amy so if any of you want to help me make sure everything's good here then I'd be grateful!"

"What time is it now? Jack asks as he looks down at his watch. "Shit, it's 5.45 we'd better get on with it!"

"I've got to head to the bar for my shift I'm closing tonight but if there's anything that she wants you to do after she's been then I'll help you get it sorted tomorrow ok brother?"

"Thank you, Callum." He nods as he heads upstairs to get ready for his shift and at the same time, Molly appears in the kitchen looking fresh from her shower and fucking hot in small shorts and a tight tee shirt. what the fuck is wrong with me?

"Ok Christian and Jack, you two take upstairs, and I'll do down here." Tom quickly chirps out, his military training flowing out of him.

"What's going on?" Molly asks him with her goddam angel voice.

"Someone from social services is calling in less than 15 minutes to check the house to see if it's ok for the kids to stay here while the investigation is underway, It's standard procedure but still we don't want anything to go amiss."

"Where do you want me?" She doesn't even hesitate in asking what she can do and it doesn't help me with trying to hold on to my hatred towards her.

"Livingroom please Molly dolly!" She gives him a cheeky smile and gets straight to work. Tom does the same while Jack and I head upstairs.

As I head for the stairs I find myself watching Molly as she bends over and starts picking up some toys that are on the rug causing my cock to twice. Fuck!

I shake my head and get my attention back on to the job at hand. I'm just having a stupid moment that's all. I've still not gotten laid so that's not helping and I'm grateful to her for what she did earlier, I'm just mixing up my feelings toward her that's all.

I'm still sure that she's hiding something from me and I still dont trust her but I do know that the longer she's here the stronger this strange feeling inside my stomach grows and as much as I push it aside, I'm not sure how much longer I can keep ignoring it and I hate it because I know I'm right and I know that whatever she's hiding I'm not going to like.
