Chapter 27: Austin.
Boarding school, Austin attended boarding school far from home in a different city. It was still very much close to his brother's new home. Thirteen year old Austin had recently started secondary, he felt proud for having been accepted into the prestigious school that Joshua Gallagher had told him about. He had been told that all the Gallagher brothers went there and that William would as well. A prestigious all boys boarding school in the outskirts east England. Austin did not wish to be separated from his bestfriend, he made sure he convinced his parents to take him there although they never approved of the Gallagher's. They found Joshua Gallagher's opinion invalid but still opened up to the idea to make their son happy.
With the boarding school being close to the new home his brother had recently bought with his wife. Austin would visit often on weekends or whenever his trunk had been finished off all the snacks. He would go with William at times, have dinner there, run back to their boarding house. Henry at twenty-four had made his parents proud by marrying a young beautiful woman named Stella Ward. She had always been nice to Austin and William, infact very nice to Austin.
Austin's mother had her first child Henry but from there after she suffered miscarriages and many other burdens. After eleven years of trying she had been blessed with twins being Austin and Bertha. The huge age gap had never been a problem, Austin was very close to his brother, he admired his brother and wanted to be like him in every way.
Whenever Austin visited, Henry was never home. Austin did not mind he liked his sister in-law. It started with small gestures, how she hugged him whenever congratulating him on acing a test. How she laid her hand on his thigh. Austin had always been tall and strong built even at age thirteen, he resembled sixteen. Naive he fell in her trap. Stella made it clear that she was not quite fond of William, whenever Austin came over... William couldn't.
It was no surprise that Austin and William as teens often made a banter about how they found Stella beautiful and attractive. With being secluded in an all boys school whenever they did visit and they saw Stella, they admired her. The way she carried herself, she was the main woman figure they saw often.
Stella would walk around in a towel or thin lace garments. She'd come into the guest room, as if Austin was a child, she'd wish him a good night and caress him uncomfortably. She would compliment constantly.
"All the girls must be swooning over a handsome gent like yourself..."
"Not at all." Austin replied a little nervous.
It finally got to a point where she'd give Austin a view of what he as a horny teenage boy thought was a remarkable body. She'd call him to hand her a towel while she was laid in the bathtub. She'd grope him every chance she got, he would get hard almost immediately with all this being new to him. As much as he felt uncomfortable he still got hard. All these changes were happening to him and he didn't know how to handle it all. She took his innocence away when she'd slip her fingers down his pants and massage him until he came in what seemed like a second.
Later avoiding her and making the visits minimum. A part of him was curious so he returned. He felt guilty at first until it became a norm. Years went by and all he knew was her body and pleasing her. He fell in love with her throughout all those years. They managed to keep everything under wraps. So many ups and downs had gone by including unwanted pregnancies and illegal abortions. At seventeen, he did not care for the nine year age gap. He wanted to be with her. Austin told her to leave his brother. He was willing to sacrifice losing his family and everything all so they could be together. He was almost done with secondary school.
She refused.
Ofcourse she did.
After so many almost getting caught attempts they got in the act. Stella cried wolf as always. Henry was viciously angry, he beat Austin and called the police. They arrested him for manhandling a woman against her will. Stella later dropped the charges as per request of Austin's parents. Henry felt as though his parents were supporting his little brother and not him and his wife. He moved away and cut them off. Austin was a mess, in this moment he thought he loved her. Even with all the anger he felt that he'd forgive her because he loves her. As the years went by he realized he did not love her, he only gave in because she was all he had ever known. He was a vulnerable little boy. He blamed himself for being a horny arse and allowing it to happen ongoing for years. He blamed himself for enjoying every second of it. He was embarrassed, speaking out would not make him man enough. Everyone would only ever see him as the weakling. One night as he researched through court documents and trials ever heard of for male rape. He found very very few close to nothing. He decided to study law, this gave him an outlet as if he was doing himself justice. Over the years he only wanted to cause others the pain that he felt. The damage he endured.
It took him a long time to forget her. She was so vivid in his mind that he could only cum apart to the thought of her. While with other women he thought of her. He craved her and needed her. He hated himself for needing her. It took him a long while to get over his addiction. He had been with her since thirteen, it was hard for him to ever be with another. Merrigold had been the first woman who had made him feel. Made him forget her face and her touch. She had such a huge effect on him, for a second he forgot Stella existed. He had told himself that he'd never depend or allow himself to be infatuated with a woman giving them the power to destroy him from within.
He dreamt of strangling Stella to her death. Austin remember how whenever he said no, she'd still touch him and make him involuntarily cum. The guilt that came after was unbearable. He remembered how all the other boys were infatuated by a woman's body and talked about it every second of the day as for him. Nothing excited him, he already knew it all. The biology classes when all his mates would be shocked with the new profound facts at fourteen, he found himself bored. He wished he had their innocence. He wished he knew nothing of it. Austin wished he could also get excited when pictures of drawn boobs were passed around the boarding house bunk.
He felt indifferent to it all.
Eventually everything.
