THE THIRD SON by Dyan Layne Release Blitz Release Date: April 20, 2023 Genre: New Adult Romance Tropes: Western romance, stepbrothers, slow-burn, high-heat

Home is just a place, right?

Arien Brogan had plans. In Denver. The only place she’d ever call home.

Then her mom met Matthew Brooks, and Arien’s plans were no longer her own.

So here she was, on a ranch in Wyoming, with her two new stepbrothers.

She’d never met cowboys like them before.

Kellan, the sullen one.

Tanner, the sweet one.

What did they want from her?

There was something strange about this town, their ways, and everyone in it.

Everything that comes in threes is perfect.

Where in the hell was she?

She wasn’t staying anyway. Come summer, she’d be gone.

But if plans can change, then dreams can too.

Because home is more than a place.

It’s a feeling.

「Use whatever is at hand, be it friend or foe.」

for the-third-son; for being an outstanding rper and a really big sweetheart. thank you for writing the commoner!tamaki drabble. it was pot on and beautifully written.

Kyoya's reaction to being pushed into the pool: "Tamaki... You'd better start running now, because when I catch you I'm dragging you to my tailor personally, in your swimsuit... And you will pay to replace this suit." He ripped his useless glasses off and pulled himself up onto the pool side, ready to chase down the moronic blond.

Tamaki smiled guilty, “oh um i just remembered  i have to go” He laughed a little as he ran  as fast as he could, he was trying to have a little fun with Kyoya but he should have known better.

[haruhiofthehostclub-blog]

Caught in a Storm // the-third-son

Haruhi gave a fearful glance up at the sky as she stepped off of the train. The clouds that had barely been there when she'd left school earlier had thickened and darkened to a dark grey. She shifted the bag on her shoulder slightly and quickened her step, more than a little eager to get home. She'd overheard someone on the train talking about how a storm was on its way that was supposed to last the rest of the day and all through the night. 

A part of her mind berated her for not asking one of the Host Club members to just drive her home. It would have been faster and she wouldn't have to worry about being caught outside in a storm. Of course, Haruhi would rather have teeth pulled rather than tell anyone her problems or asking for anything for herself. Despite knowing that any one of the club members would have gladly gone out of their way to help her, she still couldn't bring herself to inconvience them in any way. 

She wasn't the only one rushing to get inside before the storm. All around her, people rushed to get to their various destinations or to hail a cab while the sky darkened above them. Someone occasionally knocked into her, but she barely noticed. Another fearful glance upwards told her that it looked as if it were about to rain at any moment.

As if on cue, the rain began to start. It wasn't small, like it normally seemed to be. When the rain started, it was as if someone had opened up a damn. The water poured, almost instantly soaking anyone who stood out in it. Haruhi began to run, but it was too late. Lightening cut across the sky, followed very closely by a loud CRACK. 

Without thinking, Haruhi dove into the nearest building for refuge. It was cold and dark, probably one of the condemned apartment buildings about four blocks from where she lived. She curled up in the corner, scrabbling for her phone. Without even glancing at the screen, she hit the button so that the phone would call the person that she'd spoken to most recently on it. She held her breath, hoping that someone would answer.

the-third-son said: ((I know the feeling OTL))

AND I STILL HAVE LIKE 5 EPISODES LEFT. I'M SO AFRAID RIGHT NOW

[darknavy-blue]

{OKAY. I'M DYING.}

the-third-son started following you

A KYOUYA? REALLY? OMYABUOASAUSGAUSGAYHISFATYSCSS DAMN IT! I LOVE KYOUYA SO MUCH! HE'S SUCH A BADASS AND .... MY FEELS

OMG

OMG

I CAN'T

EVEN

OMG.

[kageousamamegane]

the-third-son asked:

((Yeah, thanks for making me take Kyoya to my 7th grade class.  Awesomesauce.  I loved your drabble for the one I sent you.  I hope this lives up to it.  I don't think it will because I have no idea what to do.

Oh, and since I'm writing this in my point of view, there will probably be cursing because I curse in my head.  It's a bad habit I'm trying to break.))

"Ms. W, who's he?" One of my students asked, pointing towards the adult male sitting at my desk.  Kyoya Ootori had his fingers flipping through all of my papers, seemingly oblivious to the fact that he had an entire class of twelve to thirteen year olds staring at him.

"Just pretend that he isn't here, Arturo."  I addressed the inquisitive boy, catching the glint of eyeglasses out of the corner of my eye.  Fucking Shadow King decided that a Friday afternoon would be the best time to come visit me at work?  Really?

"Please take out your interactive notebooks and your Holt Handbook from underneath your desk."  I walked over to the document camera, flipping open the period six interactive notebook to the title page, writing 'adverbs' next to page seventeen on the table of contents, "When you have finished gathering your materials, please write 'adverbs' next to page seventeen on your table of contents.  Your silent signal to me that you are finished doing this is that your pencils will be down on your desks."

While the students were shuffling through the book baskets underneath their desks and their backpacks, I walked over to Kyoya, grinding my teeth as I leaned over and whispered to him, one eye watching him while the other monitored class behavior "Why are you here?"

"To make your life hell.  Why else?"  I was about ready to knock his fucking glasses off of his smug face, but doing so would probably result in an uproar from my students.

"It is fine if you are here, but I don't want you going through my things, especially my gradebook, and I don't want you interrupting my lesson.  If anything, make yourself useful."

"And how do I do that?"

"Oh, I don't know.  Maybe grade the stack of papers that your elbow is currently crushing!"  I snarled quietly at him before standing up and walking towards the document camera, turning the page in the interactive journal to page seventeen, "Yes, Jennifer, do you have a question?"

"Are you two dating?"  I watched with lackluster as the bastard had the gall to smile and let go a small chortle at the girls question. 

"Not whatsoever." I said bluntly, drawing a line about an inch away from the left edge of the paper.  Shaking off my irritation at Kyoya's disturbing a normally engaged and attentive class, I grinned at my students and scanned the classroom to make sure all of them were ready to proceed, "We are going to be taking Cornell notes about adverbs, so if you would please set your page up for Cornell notes and title the top of your page 'Cornell Notes: Adverbs' please."

I watched as my students busied themselves writing, hoping that there would be no more disturbances until the lesson was over.

"Alright.  So, what do you think our first question for our notes is going to be?  One. Two. Three."

"What are adverbs?" The entire class chorused.  I heaved a small, nearly undetectable sigh of relief, hoping that this response meant that I had all of them on track.

"Very good."  I said, writing as I was speaking, "An adverb is a word that is used to modify or describe a verb."

*bang*

My heart seized as I looked towards the side of the room.

"Mr. Ootori.  Could you explain to me what you think you are doing?"  I crossed my arms and glared directly at the Shadow King.  The students began whispering, but this time they were making fun of the disruptive adult in the room.  Oh, how the tables turn, Kyoya Ootori.

"You told me to grade papers, so I am looking for a colored pen."

"Ms. W keeps all her grading pens in the coffee cup on the desk.  It's right in front of you."  Samuel, the boy in the seat next to my desk chair, said with a condescending tone in his voice.  Usually that tone used against an adult would earn him a minute after class, but not today.

"Thank you for helping, Mr. Ootori solve his problem Samuel.  Mr. Ootori, I hope you don't mind me making an example of you for student behavior.  Students, what do we do when we need to solve a problem?  Jasmine?"

"If it is a Ms. W problem then we raise our hands and ask politely."

"Brilliant Jasmine.  Cody, what if it isn't a Ms. W problem?"

"We figure out how to solve it ourselves."

"Class, is finding a pen a Ms. W problem?"

"NO!" The entire class chorused, thirty-eight pairs of eyes focused on Kyoya Ootori.

"Thank you, Mr. Ootori, for being such a good example of poor classroom behavior.  Now, can I continue with my lesson on adverbs, or do you need help with something else?"  The sound of my chuckling student was like music to my ears as I pushed up my glasses at Kyoya, a smirk on my lips.

"No."

"You're supposed to say 'no, ma'am,'" Ivan added, correcting Kyoya's lack of manners.  He looked me in the eyes, glaring through his glasses at me.

"That is a very polite way to address an adult, especially a teacher, isn't it Ivan?"  Ivan nodded, and the rest of the class agreed.

That's right, Kyoya Ootori, this is my fucking classroom.  I am Queen of my classroom. 

"Well?"  I said, folding my arms yet again and beginning the I'm-waiting-teacher-foot-tap.

"No, I do not need help...ma'am."

"Thank you.  Alright, let us get back to adverbs.  I am going to say the question, and you are going to all say the definition.  Ready?  'What is an..."
