UNEDITED
Selenia woke up to the sunrise beaming on her face, she was wrapped in a cocoon of warmth while she watched the dust particles float through the sunlight.
Her brows furrowed as she remember the previous night. She wasn't sure how she felt...
A/N: hey y'all please lmk if you notice any plot holes or contradictions in my book. Sometimes I forget shit. Also, if I never elaborate on anything leading all to be confused. Lmk🤍
A crowd formed eager to watch two famous almost mythical assassins, face off.
Elio was amongst those who gathered but unlike the excited crowd, he was pissed. He thought this was the last thing Selenia needed to be doing right now.
Selenia shouldn't be entertaining her family's sick games. They're toying with her trauma and Elio wouldn't have it.
"Selenia enough. This isn't needed." Elio said loudly over the crowd.
"They used to do this all the time. It's no big deal." Viktor chimed in from beside Elio.
Elio just scowled at the old man, irritated Selenia ignored him.
The fight was getting intense, at first they were waiting for the other to make the first move, then it was slow calculated attacks that got blocked strategically. However, now it looked like some type of beautiful dance.
The siblings moved in synch with each other, almost like they knew the other's move. Advancing, blocking, ducking, attacking, all in harmony with the other opposing moves.
The crowd couldn't keep up with their swiftness, having a hard time seeing whereSelenia's body began and Igor's ended.
It was a sight to see. A beautiful duet. Like watching the best of the best go head to head, it was captivating.
Selenia ducked under Igor's legs, as they were spread wide for a stable stance, she grabbed his legs from behind and flipped herself onto his back, her arms coming around Igor's neck, effectively cutting off his air supply. This took the fight to the ground, Igor on top of Selenia. Selenia wrapped around his back like a koala choking him out.
Igor failed miserably at trying to his sister off of him.
Viktor looked down at his children with a pleased smile.
"Finish it Selenia." He ordered.
"Don't Selenia. Don't play their stupid games." Elio countered.
In this position, Selenia could, let go, make him lose consciousness, or kill him. Selenia had a feeling Viktor meant she should kill her brother. She knew him, that's what he would want. Kill the weak. Show no mercy.
"Милосердие — это то, что вы даете тем, кто этого не заслуживает." Viktor said, just loud enough for Selenia to hear.
(Mercy is something you give to those who don't deserve it)
Elio had no idea what Viktor said to Selenia but he could see her arms tightening around Igor's neck.
"Selenia, are you going to kill in the name of your father again? Do you want to give him that satisfaction?" Elio questioned. He didn't care if he insulted or pissed off the Russian psycho next to him. What could he do anyway? They were in his house, surrounded by his Mafia, who were devoted to him.
Something flashed in Selenia's eyes at Elio's words. In one swift motion, she pushed herself out from under Igor, bringing one arm up with her, and bending it with all her strength at an odd angle until a snap was heard and Igor's arm permanently stayed bent the wrong way at the elbow after she released it.
The crowd stood stunned, some grimacing at the oddly bent arm. Igor lay on the floor still screaming in agony until he eventually passed out from the pain.
Selenia was breathing heavily glaring down at her brother. She seemed to have snapped out of whatever daze she was in. She stomped towards the exit of the gym, obviously pissed off still. The crowd parted for her and hushed whispers could be heard.
"Do I pay you all to stand around?! Go back to work!" Elio scowled at the group.
Viktor took one last look at his son, a disapproving look on his face before he turned around and walked away. Elio sighed irritated that he would have to be the one to take the poor boy to the infirmary. He didn't like ordering people to do tasks he could do himself.
~~~~~~~~
Selenia was a raging storm blowing through the halls headed towards her(Elios) room. However, her movement was halted by the man who blocked her path.
Dressed in his usual black suit, hands in his pockets Leisurely, stood Vincent.
A fake look of concern was painted over his face.
"Are you alright Selenia? I saw what happened in the gym. I can't believe your father made you do that again" he frowned down at her as he approached her.
Selenia scowled up at him-
"Don't pretend like you fucking care. You don't care about anything but yourself!" she yelled. She was not in the mood for him and his stupid games.
"I do care about you Selenia, I always have. I know you haven't forgotten what we shared" He said, now only inches away from Selenia who refused to back away and stand her ground.
"You're a psychopath, all you ever do is lie. Leave me alone" She pushed him causing him to stumble a bit. She walked around him, still trying to make it to her room. Vincent grabbed her arm before she was too far away, and pulled her impossibly close.
"When you need me I'll be here, Querido" he whispered while tucking some baby hairs that escaped her braid behind her ear.
Selenia stood a little shocked and disarmed by his behavior. After a second too long she stumbled away from him and continued her journey. Vincent watched her go with a smirk before he continued in the opposite direction.
But of course, the encounter hadn't gone unnoticed. A fuming Elio stood around the corner having heard and seen it all.
Red, that's all he saw. He was out for blood. He wanted to tear Vincent limb by limb, make him cry, and beg for death, which he wouldn't give him.
And Selenia, his heartache that she listened to a word that man had said. That she let him get so close, let him touch her. He knew she could have easily gotten away from Vinc, even kill him if she wanted to. But she didn't. She let it happen.
Sense Elio couldn't kill Vincent yet, he decided to visit Selenia.
His anger built up on his way to her, he was practically shaking in jealousy and possessiveness. She was his. And he'd make sure to remind her of that
