Mallory and Sterling stepped aside from the living room and went to Aliza's room. Sterling closed the door behind him. "What was that about?"
"Do you think society will accept you banging your aunt and sisters?"
"No, that's why we're keeping it to ourselves. What does that have to do with you and Aliza getting married?"
"Just think about it for a sec! To the world, Aliza and I will be a couple but inside the walls, you will be our man! Plus, I saw the look on your face when you realised I'm going to be your aunt. Pervert!"
"Hey, it's not my fault that you two decided to play with my kinks!"
"So, you're cool with it!"
"Okay, that I understand but why did you want me to cum inside you and Aliza. By the way, you do realise the risks, right?"
"I checked your ancestry, you have nothing to worry about. By the way, did you know that Hunter has a long-lost son!"
"I know! His name is Drew!"
"I was..."
"Can we get back to the topic?"Sterling cut her off mid-sentence to deal with the issue. He knew that talking about his uncle would only distract him from what was important.
"Mallory, do you really want kids?"
"I'm getting old and so is Aliza! If we're building a family, that's a good start, right? Aliza and I want kids and we would like you to be our baby's father."
"You do realise if that were to happen my kid is going to be my niece or nephew."
"I know! That's so messed up which makes it perfect." Mallory formed a malicious smile. "I'll be one of you!" Surprisingly, it turned Sterling on. Our hero tended to get excited by anything from an attractive girl.
"So, what's next? Are you going to plan a big wedding?"
"Yes and the after party will lead to an orgy so don't worry!" Mallory pinched his cheek. "Oh my sweet nephew, I'm going to have so much fun with you!"
Sterling thought for a second. Then an idea hit his head. If Aliza and Mallory could pull it off why can't the other girls? That will give them an excuse. The outside world would question the relationship status of his family members. There's no way he's revealing the polygamy and incestuous aspects of his relationship with them. "Hey, Mallory, what do you think about this?" Sterling rubbed his hands and turned his attention towards the living room where the girls were discussing except Aliza and Ophelia. "What if Brenna married Eva and Catherine married Amber?"
"Are you trying to turn your whole family into lesbians?"
"Technically, they already are! Well, I don't know about Amber though. I could convince her to pretend."
"I came up with a perfect excuse and you're here trying to share it with the others?" Mallory pouted. "You better make it work young man! Come to think of it, where is your grandfather? I haven't asked him for permission to propose to Aliza!"
"You care about those?"
"I don't give a shit! Weirdly, he's absent most of the time." Mallory started walking away.
_____________________
A week passed by, and Sterling used this time to spend time with each of his girls. He even went on dates with Rebecca, Amber and Eva on separate occasions. Everything went perfectly for the Johnson's household. The constructions ended as planned with the help of more construction crew members assisting with the new development. One of the crew members named Seth knocked on Sterling's door. Sterling opened it. "Seth, are you guys leaving already?"
"We packed our things but there's something I want to show you before we leave," Seth said, asking him to follow him outside where the wastes were piled up. Seth removed a cover to reveal some transparent wires. "You know what these are?" Seth asked Sterling.
"Optical fibres!" Sterling knelt on the ground and picked up the edge of a wire. "Connected with micro cam!" All the hidden cameras from the wall had been extracted during the renovations. Sterling specifically asked the workers to keep an eye out for any kind of spying gadgets. So, they removed them from the house for Sterling.
"We cleared up the whole house. All the eyes are here but we couldn't pinpoint the exact location of the source. Even with the help of your detective friend, we couldn't find it."
"So, there are people out there still with the hold of private footage of my family!" Sterling sighed. "Thanks for helping me out guys!"
"You don't have to thank us! We all had fun and your family is lovely!" Seth placed his hand on Sterling's shoulder. "Just deal with whoever is messing with these wires! Your family deserves some peace!" Seth started walking away.
"Tell your husband I said hi!" Sterling was looking at the wires. Brenna joined him.
"Are those?"
"Yes!"
"So, we're not being watched from now on!"
"Unless he gets here to plant some more, I don't think so. Except for the security cameras outside the walls and the doorsteps, we don't have any cameras!" Sterling got up and placed his hand on his big sister's hip pulling her closer. "You look amazing today, Bren!"
"Enough with the compliments! I'm not in the mood for sex today!"
"That doesn't seem like you!"
"I don't know why, I have had this bad intuition ever since I woke up!" Brenna felt a little relieved because they got rid of the cameras but something was bothering her.
"If it makes you feel any better, why don't you go meet Lisa with Catherine?" Ever since Lisa and Brenna patched things up, they've been closer and closer. Every time Brenna went to visit Lisa and her unborn child, she came back with a bright smile. So, it made sense to Sterling that visiting Lisa could help Brenna and eventually lead her to have sex with him that day.
"OK, I'll go check with Catherine. By the way, you should stop cumming inside her for a while."
"Is it not safe? You know we can still manage in case she gets pregnant, right?"
"How are you going to tell Mom? You haven't made any progress with her."
"Why do you want me to fuck her so bad?"
"Because Eva put the idea of mom-daughter threesome inside my head!" Brenna covered her face ashamed of what she had just spilt. Then she glanced at the wires. "What are you going to do with those?"
"Optical fibres can be used for other things! I'm going to work on it in my new lab!"
"Fuck...I haven't checked my study room!" Brenna removed herself from her brother's arms and ran inside.

Eva and Sterling were at a mall. Eva was trying on new clothes as Sterling watched her. "...makes my butt huge!" Eva realised that Sterling was concerned about something. "Babe, why are you sulking? You are not in much of a mood today! Is something wrong?"
"No,... It's just!" Sterling got up from his chair and went up close towards Eva grabbing her hands in his. "Did you think about what I said?"
"I'm too young to get married...and I will have trouble with my parents if I marry Brenna."
"I'm not saying you should do it right now. Maybe after your studies or after you get a stable job. I still don't understand why your parents wouldn't like the idea of Brenna marrying you?"
"Didn't Brenna tell you about the transparent bikini incident?"
"She did and it is embarrassing for your dad. But can he just move past that? By the time you get to exchange rings, he would have already forgotten about it."
"That does make sense. But she wants kids and I don't so...not happening!"
"This again..!" Sterling pushed her hands down and went back to his seat frustrated.
"I don't know why you're so obsessed with me having kids. You already have one on the way and Mallory agreed to have one with you. Isn't that enough for you?" Eva yelled at Sterling. Some customers at the shop heard her but they didn't understand enough to care.
"It's not about kids. It's about how you want to be open with. I talked to your mom, Eva! She told me you wanted kids but every time I bring up the topic you just toss it away. It makes me feel like you want it but not with me!" Eva understood why he was obsessed with the subject. Unknowingly she made her man feel unwanted.
"Oh, I didn't know I made you feel that way. It has nothing to do with you. I'm just...terrible with kids." Eva shrugged looking away.
Eva looked around the shop. Everyone was minding their business so she thought she could open up to Sterling. At least, that's what she thought. A tall woman approached them before Eva could talk. "David? No, you must be his son! Sterling, right?" The woman walked past Eva and cupped Sterling's face. "Oh, look at you all grown up!" Without Sterling could understand what was going on the woman kissed him on his lips.
"Ma'am, what are you doing to my boyfriend?" Eva pulled her away. The woman stumbled on her feet finally gaining balance.
"Oh, boyfriend? You must be his girlfriend." The woman pulled Eva into a kiss. Eva didn't fight back at all. Normally, Sterling wouldn't feel jealous of a scene like this but this time it was different. "You two look cute together!" The woman pulled away from the kiss. "It feels so good to see a familiar face, kid! Would you mind telling Ophelia that I will drop by this evening at your place?"
"I will but..." before Sterling could make a complete sentence the woman kissed him again and left the shop. Sterling blinked twice before getting back to reality. He quickly went to hug Eva. "Please don't leave me! I don't know who that woman is."
"Huh...Sterling, did you forget that you're a polyamorous pervert?"
"I do. But aren't you mad at me!"
"She kissed me too. Great kisser by the way! I think she's one of those overly affectionate people who greet others with a kiss, whoever she is!" Brenna looked at the entrance where that woman was leaving with multiple bags. "And who is she?"
"I don't know!"
"Really? She seems to know you!"
"She thought I was my dad at first. Maybe she's a family friend that I don't know of."
"Look at you calling your father dad without stammering!"
"Cut me some slack, you adorable puppy!" Sterling patted her head.

That evening Sterling was talking to Lucia through a call. He was in the living room sharing the details about his new relationships and the hidden wires. Sterling felt so relieved to be able to talk freely without tipping off a certain rotten meathead about his allies. That's when Sterling got another call. "Hey, Lucky, Jon is calling?"
[Put him on conference call! I want to hear what he has to say too!] Sterling attended his call and added both calls into a conference call.
"Jon, Lucia is on the other line!"
[Huh...Well, this changes things!]
[Change what? Is it about my father? Do you have any leads?] Lucia asked eagerly.
[Lucia, I want you to take a deep breath. This is going to be a hard pill to swallow!]
"Lucky, are you sure about this? I can talk to him alone and then deliver to you that wouldn't..."
[Sterling, I know you mean well but this is my choice! Wilson, hit me with the truth!]
[Lucia, you don't have a father...anymore.]
Both cousins were confused. Jonathan continued. [Drew is not a man anymore. Sterling, your uncle Drew is an aunt Drew. She is a trans woman.]
[...]
"Lucky, say something! Are you alright?"
[Does she have a dick?]
"That's what you're worried about? Are you serious?"
[I don't know Lucia. According to my source, she put a pause on her bottom surgery two months ago.] The doorbell rang. From the kitchen, Ophelia asked Sterling to check the door. Sterling got up from the couch and walked towards the door. He guessed that it could be the hot woman he met at the mall. His dirty mind was already imagining whether the woman was interested in him or not in a sexual way but the voice of Jonathan interrupted him.[Sterling, I just sent you her picture! Be careful! She could be as dangerous as Hunter.]
[I'm hanging up too, cous! I need to think!] They both hung up the call as Sterling checked his phone. The picture started loading on his WhatsApp. The doorbell rang again, so Sterling opened the door to see the woman he had met at the mall.
"Hi, Sterling!"
"Hi! I'm really sorry! I don't want to be rude but back at the mall, I didn't know who you were..." The photo finished loading as Sterling had a clear view of the one who used to be his uncle and fathered Lucia. It was the same face as the one standing in front of him at the door. "...you're Drew?"
"You're adorable, my sweet nephew!" Drew pulled Sterling into a hug. "I'm going to have so much fun with you!"
Author's note: Hello everyone, Jinton here! Just to clarify some things. Drew here has a dick and later on in the story, she will no longer need it. By the power of fanfic magic, I can do whatever I want with this preexisting character so don't worry. Drew will join the harem as a woman with a vagina and I have some surprise that involves her. Hint is Tiff's project. Have a nice day everyone.
One more thing, recently I read some comments bashing the upcoming NTR volume. Again, I choose to write this way to be closer to the original's way of handling bad endings. This is my way of processing the what-ifs I have in my mind. I don't expect my readers to stay for that volume if they don't like NTR. That's why I decided to release the NTR volume at once after the complete release of the Harem volume so that sharing route fans don't have to wait. That's not the only reason. NTR volume will talk about dealing with hardcore stuff (morality-wise) so be warned.
So, any comments that say NTR wrong, why write it etc will be removed from now on. I am not forcing anyone to read something they don't like. If you don't like NTR, you don't have to read it. You may stop reading after the harem route. I wish you all a wonderful day.
