Viola

Chapter 14

"Fuck красотка, that hurt." (babe- Russian) I hear a slightly accented voice say near my ear

I look behind me in shock, tears clouding my vision, before remembering that I have to do something. 

"STOP!" I yell out as loud as possible. Every head turns to me as fighting immediately comes to a halt. "не обижай их они семья" (Don't hurt them, they're family) I shout out. All of the masked men nod raising their hands in surrender as they make contact with me and the tall man standing behind me.

My family looks at me, concerned but confused looks on their face, their guards still up. I remember that they didn't know I'm multi-lingual.

I try to calm them down "I know you're confused, just give me one second okay?" I ask. They slightly nod, probably noticing the most likely prominent tears sliding down my face. I quickly spin around and jump into the arms of the man standing behind me.

He catches me as I put my face in his neck and he places his in mine. 

"I missed you, baby," he whispers into my hair.

"I missed you too Lex" I respond hugging him tighter. 

Finally, I make eye contact with Lex and I smacked him on the chest.

"What was that for?" he asked me shocked. I hear a few stifled chuckles from behind me. 

"Did you have to break the windows?" I asked. He looks down. "I've been looking for you all over. I couldn't find any tracks for you for months, since that day, I looked everywhere." He stops slightly. "Then my men found intel that you were in the hospital, but by the time I found a way to get to you, you were here. I thought you were in trouble." 

I smile at him slightly before whispering "It's okay, I'm okay." he nods before looking up. His eyes widen. He pulls me back to make eye contact with him. "You found them?" I nod excitedly turning to see my very confused-looking family.

Before I can say anything I hear a shriek. Footsteps are heard running through the mansion with the heavy footfalls of the guards following. 

"ALEXI" I hear a frantic voice yell. "HELPPP" Lex chuckles but makes no move to help. Dad looks at me, I nod giggling telling him it's okay and there's no threat. The boys sigh frustrated and give me a look putting down the weapons that they've once again pulled out.

As he enters the room papa puts a hand up to tell the guards it's okay. The guards following him start to slow down noticing that there's no threat but he takes no notice as he runs like a chicken without a head straight into a side table. Not being able to contain my laughter, I let out a string of giggles. I hear Lex also chuckling loudly. After a minute he shoots up. 

"AH, brother you found her," he yells shooting up off of the floor running to us. He snatches me into his arms. 

"Violaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" he shouts dramatically

"Genadiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii" I reply just as dramatically, giggling loudly as he spins us around. 

"How is my sister-in-law?" He asks I blush slightly looking down.

Suddenly I hear a shout "What the hell? Sister in law?" I turn to see that Enzo was the source of the yelling. I'm snatched out of Gen's grip. 

Before I know it I'm sitting on someone's lap on the couch. 

I try to turn to check on Lex and Gen but I'm stopped by Papa squatting in front of me. 

"Viola, look at me, why the hell were you hugging Alexi and Gennadi Evanoff and why did he call you his sister-in-law?" He looks like he's about to pass out.
