✯\\Lost in the Woods\\✯

twenty nine

"Nice room." I said and she rolled her eyes

I sighed and stood by the door. Nowhere was I going near her.

"Why don't you like me?" I asked"I didn't do anything to you so why don't you like me?"

She sighed and sat on her bed.

" If it wasn't for you, I would have gotten Nick long time ago." She said

I frowned my eyebrows and she rolled her eyes.

"It's not like you would get it." She said" After all you were playing with two boys."

"What do you mean?"

"Don't act dumb. I know there was another boy in your life while you had Nick." She said

"I didn't cheat, after all I truly had feelings for Nick but you know..." I said

The two of us kept quiet and the room was filled with silence.

"Want to get some ice-cream?" She asking as she broke the silence

Why the sudden change.

"Why are you acting nice now?" I asked while raising my eyebrow up

"Do you want it or not?" She asked, annoyed

"Yeah I guess." I replied

She rolled her eyes before standing up.

"Come on." She said while gesturing me to follow her and we ended up in the kitchen

"Geez,you are quiet naive." Nikita said while taking a spoonful of her ice cream

I shrugged my shoulders and continued eating my ice cream.

This was the first time I could talk to her properly without her threatening me.

She wasn't so bad after all.

"I can't believe I used to find you annoying instead you are just so dumb." She said

That's offensive.

"Im not dumb." I said"it's not my fault I was homeschool or something like that."

"It's nice to know the two of you are getting to know each other." Samson said as he walked in her room

"At least knock." Nikita said

Samson playfully rolled his eyes and said" Your boyfriend is here."

"I almost totally forgot about the dinner." She said

Samson chuckled and said" Wait till dad finds out you are dating."

Nikita playfully hit his chest and said" That's why I invite him over so I could introduce him."

"See Josephine tonight will be entertaining." He said

Nikita rolled her eyes and said" You two are boring I'm going to Nick" and she left afterwards.

Samson looked at me and shrugged his shoulders.

" Wanna meet the rest of the boys?" He asked

"Not really." I said as I remembered Luca. That boy would kill me if he had the chance to.

"Come on. Im sure they would be happy to see you and plus you part of the family now that means we should all get to know each other." He said with a playful grin

I sighed in defeat and said" Okay."

Meeting all of the Woods brothers was something I thought I never would do. Most of them were nice but expect for Luca, Alaric and for some reasons Julian who I didn't really know and it was my first time ever talking to him.

Apollo's pov
Somewhere in a warehouse

"Is that him?" My father Lorenzo asked

"Yes." I answered

He stared at the man in front of him who was tied up in a chair and blood dripping down from head to toe.

"Did you get any information?" He asked

"He didn't spill anything." I said" he was too loyal."

My father sighed and glared at me.

"Do I have to do everything myself to get a job done." He said

"Maybe we should just ask the little girl." I said" instead of wasting time we can get information from her."

"Why didn't you do that earlier?" He asked me coldly

I straighten my tie and looked somewhere else.

"I didn't want to scare her." I said

He sighed in annoyance and said" Come on before Veronica comes to get her."

Josephine's pov

From unknown✉️
Meet me at
school.
Seen

I stared at the message and looked at Nikita and Nick.

Who was that?

I don't remember giving anyone my number expect for Sunwoo. Maybe it could be Cherry or Letho.

Sunwoo must have gaven one of them my number.

I checked the time and sighed in relief. I still had time to meet up with who ever messaged me.

I left and headed to school.

On my way to school I couldn't help but wonder who was the person who messaged me.

Apollo's pov

"Where's Josephine?" I asked my little sister Nikita

She looked around and shrugged her shoulders.

" I don't know." She said

I sighed then walked upstairs to where the rest were. Probably she was hanging out with the boys but once I got there, there was no sign of her.

"Why does she have to disappear when I need her."I said to no one in particular

Later that night there was still no sign of her and things were getting serious.

"How could you guys be so careless!" Veronica yelled out"I knew I shouldn't have trusted you guys with her."

"It's not like we are at fault." Alaric said

Veronica sent him a death glare and he kept quiet.

"I should get married soon so I can get rid of this surname." She said harshly with vernon

"QUIET!" Our father yelled out

Everyone in the room kept quiet and stared at our frustrated father.

"The sooner you stop fighting we can search for her." He said"and don't ever disrespect your surname."

Veronica clicked her tongue and walked away.

She was the only one who could disrespect him, after all she had a reason to.
