Matteo's Eyes

Chapter 7

Again I didn't edit and prob won't edit most chapters.

I walk quickly out of my last class of the day trying my best to avoid Linus. Between every class, he has tried to walk with me and show me off. Now in most relationships that would be cute but I HATE PDA. With a passion. Like, let me just go *makes throw up noise*. I will only have small gestures of PDA like walking next to each other or a quick small kiss on the cheek before you leave. Other than that don't touch me in public.

"Babe wait!" Ew pet names already. I ignore Linus and keep walking with my head down. I grab into the straps of my bookbag and head straight for the car. "Ivory! Get back here right now before I scream to everyone that-"

"Shut the fuck up," I scream at Linus.

He storms over to me and grabs my wrist tightly. I feel his nails dig into my skin.

"You do not tell me what to do. I am taking you home."

"No, you can't do that. The moment you step foot on our property you will be shot and killed." I stare at him. His blonde hair sticks to his forehead because of the sweat he built up from chasing me. His dull brown eyes stare at me with anger burning in them.

"Fine, then we will go to my house." Fuck.

Linus drags me by the wrist to his car. I quickly text Matteo that I am going to Linus' house. Although I do hesitate, debating letting my dad send the entire mafia to track me down and kill Linus. Not a terrible idea.

I sit in silence in the car. Linus tries to put his hand on my thigh but I smack his hand away. Then he tries to hold my hand and I pull my hand away. I turn up the music and ignore him every time he tries to talk to me.

"Ivory, you're about to meet my parents so please act respectable." Like I owe you anything.

"Why would I do anything for you? I agreed to be your fucking girlfriend I'm not doing anything extra."

"Whatever. You've already met my father anyways."

What the fuck does that mean?

I walk in behind Linus only to be met Marcello and an old woman who has bright blue eyes.

"Nice job Linus." he turns to look at me. "Well, little lady. It seems we meet again."

"Why are you talking like you're some villain in a horrible T.V. show?" I tend to make jokes to hide the fear that trembles within me.

"I won't make the same mistake twice. Give me your phone." I make a run for the door only to see not one, not two, not even three, but four fucking men with guns standing there.

"Wow, you think that you need four men to keep me from running?" I pause and look at the two old people smirking at me thinking they have me caught. "Nope. You need more than that. FUCKERS!" I scream as I run towards a window. I drop my shoulder and turn my head just like Dad taught me. Bang. Ouch. The only thing that broke, was my shoulder. Stupid fucking bulletproof glass.

I hear the old people laugh at me. Fuck. I think I might have hit my head on...

***

I wake up to a room on a bed. Not a cell. That's different since when do prisoners get princess treatment. I look around and find books, a dresser, and a door which I assume leads to a bathroom.

"Marcello? Marcello! I have a question. Can you hear me? Hello!" I shout out to anyone who might hear.

I fall back on the pillows and wait for someone to come. I flinch when I feel a sharp pain shoot through my shoulder. I definitely broke something. Finally, I hear distant footsteps becoming closer and closer.

The doorknob turns and Marcello enters, "What do you want?"

"I have a question."

"Then ask it. And quickly I have business to deal with."

"Well, actually I have a couple. My first question is who is that lady? The second question is why are you kidnapping me and not one of the twins? They're the mafia heirs, not me." I put my hands underneath my legs to stop the shaking. I don't want to show him any fear.

"The lady is your grandmother. And I kidnapped you because your parents would make your siblings get out of a kidnapping like this alone because that's what they are training for. You however are the youngest and not heir to anything so they will come to save you."

"My grandmother is dead."

"No, not your father's mom. Your mom's mother."

"What the fuck. You guys had a child! You know that is like incest or something because you are technically related!" I almost yell at him out of disgust.

"No, no, no. We adopted Linus. I would kill my kid before being related to a child like him."

"It's not too late to kill him," I murmur under my breath.

I hear Marcello chuckle, "Just like your mother but with your father's eyes. You see your mother could hide her emotions and they wouldn't show in her eyes. However, with your father, you could read him like a book just by looking in his eyes. That is the same for you."

"We'll look into my eyes now. You see how much I want to kill you?"

"I have business to take care of. Behave." That gives me an idea.
