Chapter 1

Sitting in the police station waiting for my brother to pick me up is nerve racking. Thinking of many possibilities. When I returned home there were cops at my house who informed me about my step-father's 'sudden demise'. After the DNA test by the child protective services I happen to have not one not two but 6 brothers.
'Your brother is here sweetheart', Mrs. Black announced as my heart rate picked and immediately Willow leapt on me licking trying to calm me down.
I have Willow for almost 1½ years now as my therapist adviced me have Willow as my emotional support dog.
'Come here Maya', Mrs. Black called as I walked out Willow right behind me.

'Maya this is Alexander Romanoff your brother', she introduced as I looked at him. He was quite build up, tall almost 6'1" or so.
'Hello Alexander', I nodded
'Maya. How are you?', he asked.
'I am fine', I nodded
'If you could complete the necessary documents sir', Mrs Black asked
'Yes', he nodded
'Maya, you too please', she said as I followed her.
'Name?', one of the officer asked
'Maya Romanoff', Alexander said
'Carter... It's Maya Carter', I said
'You are a Romanoff', Alexander said in a serious time.
'According to the California State Law I get to choose the whether I like to change or keep my name as it is', I said as I officer nodded
(* I have no knowledge of California's law*)
'You are right Ms. Carter', he nodded.

After finishing all the papers we were good to go.
'We can go to get your things', Alexander said
'No need, I will get it shipped. I have few clothes for time being', I said without looking at him.
Without another word we drove to the airport after check-in and everything we boarded a private jet.
'Why do you have an EMA?', he asked
'My therapist advised and his name is Willow', I said
'Okay', he said.
It was a long 3 hours flight. Luckily Alexander did not speak anything which I am happy about. I don't like to speak much.
'Maya, we are here?', he announced
'Okay', I nodded as I picked my bag and Willow's leash.
'Let me', Alexander did taking my bag.

The drive to the house was 30 minutes long. Parking the car we got out and it was the huge mansion.

'Let's go in. Everyone is waiting for you', he said
Walking in, the place had a modern touch. I liked it to be honest.
'Boys come here', Alexander called as the footsteps were heard.
'Meet your little sister Maya', he introduced.
'Finally you are back', one of the boy smiled as he came forward to hug me but I took a step back.
'I am not comfortable', I said as a look of hurt is flashed through his eyes but he quickly covers it and smile
'Hi! I am Jasper the second youngest, the best and the most fun sibling', he smiled as I nodded
'I am Zayn, this dimwits twin', the guy who was tall, lean, with piercing grey eyes smiled
'I am George', the third guy said
'Hi! I am Liam and this is Emmett', one of the guy said.
'Nice meeting you all', I said
'Who is this?', Jasper smiled bending down to pet Willow as he immediately stood in front of me and growled
'He is my ESA and don't pet him', I said softly petting Willow.
'And his name is Willow', I said as they nodded
'Can you please show me my room. I am quite tired', I said.
'Yah! I will show it to you', Jasper volunteered.
Walking upstairs with Willow behind me I looked trying to remember the way.
'This is your room', he said pointing o the room.
'Thank you and do you have a gym here?', I asked
'Ya, it's 2nd floor, third door from left', he said
'Thanks and please don't bother with dinner', I said as I walked in locking my room.
The room was according to my liking simple yet modern.

'I am going for a shower, stay here', I said as he barked in response.
Walking in the bathroom I took a long warm shower for sore muscles. Changing into a set of loungewear I walked out.

After drying my hair and my skin routine.I sat down on the bed with my laptop while willow head was on my lap. After working for an hour as I was about to go to sleep a knock stopped me on my way.
'Enter', I called
'Hey! Alexander called you down', Emmett said.
'You go ahead, I'll be there in a moment', I said as he nodded and went away.
Putting my laptop on charge I walked out with Willow.
'You need me Alexander?', I asked
'Please have a seat Maya', he said pointing to the chair beside him.
'Why are you not having dinner?', he asked
'I donot eat after 7:00 pm, it's unhealthy', I said.
'Fair enough', he said nodding
'Okay, so now as you are staying here there are few rules you have to follow. First, you have to respect everyone, second keep good grades in school though I have not got your school records yet, third no boyfriend and fourth no going on third floor. Any questions', he asked
'Yes, first if you want respect, I expect that you all respect me and my boundaries as well. Third how about girlfriend and I am good with third floor', I said as his face changed looked amused
'You like girls?', he asked with a look of horror in his face.
'By girlfriend I mean "girl" "friends"', I said putting each words clearly
'Ya, ya offcourse you can have girlfriends', he nodded.
'I am okay with rest of the rules', I said
'Okay, when will your stuff be here?', Alexander asked
'By tomorrow morning I guess', I said
'Thats alright. You will go shopping with Zayn and Jasper for school', he said and right on cue my phone rang.
'Your boyfriend?', Emmett smirked
Putting the call on speaker I spoke, 'Hello' without breaking my eye contact with Emmett.
'Am I speaking to Ms. Maya Carter?', a masculine voice asked
'Speaking', I said
'I am Father Joseph from Holy Cross Church, I wanted to thank you personally for your kind donation for community lunch', he said
'I am glad I could help you father, let me know if you need any help', I said as Emmett face turned red.
'Thank you child. Praise the lord', he wished disconnecting the call.
'Good night everyone', I wished as I walked back.
