All Alfie Win Kyoti wanted for his birthday was a party that didn’t go wrong.
Unfortunately the influence of his big sister Gemma and big brother Seth had rubbed off on him, and he grew up with the same neuroses they had about Nicola and Jono…
He was ready to leave home and escape from his evil siblings, but before he did that he needed Joanna to paint his portrait. He made very sure they weren’t lurking, waiting to scare him… and then he did what he needed to before striking out and moving on.
Joanna felt honoured to be painting her little brother’s portait. She knew her dad would have wanted to do it and she felt she was carrying on a little piece of his legacy by making sure Alfie Win’s face joined the rest of the family portraits in the heirs’ bedroom.
Alfie Win probably got out at a good moment, as both Nicola and Jono were continuing to rise fast up the ranks of the criminal underclass…
…although Nicola found the animal ear disguise more ‘disturbing’ than ‘evil’.
She also took up art as a hobby. Most of her paintings had the familiar red glow the family’s other evil painters had used, but occasionally she painted things that harked back to her heartbreaker days.
Joanna was still plugging away at the police work, and her cunning chef disguise finally fooled someone into agreeing to be interviewed by her.
As for newlywed Gemma and Donnie, they slept in the same bed… but beyond that they didn’t communicate a great deal. Gemma was simply secure in the knowledge she was now comfortably off for life.
Rae was so pleased that one of her six children had finally married, and she told Gemma so. Gemma received her mother’s affection, but her mind was firmly fixed on one thing… and it wasn’t how attractive she found her new husband.
She thought she really ought to make more of an effort with her marriage, though, and so she took Donnie into the heirs’ bedroom to finally consummate their marriage. She hoped the luck of the room would rub off on both of them and that maybe she could conceive the child she needed to become the new heir.
But tonight wasn’t to be their night. Maybe Gemma’s theory about their marriage being doomed had some substance to it…
The blog title (other than being a song lyric) refers to the fact that I know this is a dull update, but it’s all the neccessary inbetween stuff we need to get to all the kickass GREAT stuff that’s coming – hence why I updated the blog twice in the same day. Hold onto your hats… there is a lot of fab stuff coming up soon…
I can’t believe you are almost done. Of course I just read the entire legacy, all 9 generations on Monday. Great job!
Wow, but that’s like 70-0dd chapters! Thank you! And well done!
Hey, I was just pleased to get a double dose of Kyotis today.
LOL. What in the world was up with that chef outfit?
It’s her undercover cop thingy. It was taken in the same session as the picture yesterday when she was failing at finding any potential mates.
yay… a double episode in one day before i went to bed..
rad!.. lol.. i liked this.. poor gemma, trapped into love for the sake of the family…really sucks..
What the freaking hell is up with the animal ears in nicole’s costume? lol.. bet she was miffed about that for ages after! haha.
Well no-one in the family forced her to do it… she should be careful what she wishes for, perhaps
Yes, I guess it is her skewed view of reality that put her in the situation in the first place.
I thought it was amusing that Donnie was still “Pongie” in the last 2 pics… hehehe
“Pongie Donnie” has a quirky ring to it.
I’m getting annoyed for Gemma now. My, she’s the most gorgeous girl and this guy Donnie *sigh* turns up all smelly for the wedding and hasn’t done any cleaning up before they are to finally concummate their marriage either… Rich people get away with a lot of things. He better gets used to Kyoti standards though!
Yeah, I didn’t like him too much (though he didn’t always smell hahaha)… you can probably tell. Still, I think it was for the best that I didn’t grow too fond of him.
Does that mean you’re gonna kill off poor Mr Donnie just cos the marriage bed isn’t working?
I have read every single chapter (up till here so far!! But will get on it after commenting!) *Phew* Lots of reading! Great legacy, took me 7 hours.
Thank you so much for reading! Wow, you got through it in only a couple of days.
The vest and the expression in the second photo kind of makes me think that Alfie is gay. That’s a very flamboyant position he’s in.
You’re the only person who’s spotted it, but yes I always see him as gay. And have future plans for him where he will indeed be gay…
It’s the pose and his expression. you can just see him saying, “B*tch, please.”
