Leaning down gently against the back of her chair, an innocent looking girl, pouted her rose pink lips as she tried her best to look pitiful. It had always worked with other people, where she just had to pout and blink her thin, long lashes and make them look at those pretty big baby blue eyes, but for some reason it always seemed to irk her father, but since she didn't care she'll just do it anyway.
"If awards were to be given to the most well behaved, it did had been me, what's your problem? I just didn't spend the night here yesterday. And besides unlike Gwen I didn't murder a fetus" Octavia said as she stabbed another piece of pork meat without any change in her facial expression. The most prominent part of her that her father loved most times and at other times like now, wished she never had.
"What ?! Dad ? You won't say anything? she's doing it again." A beautiful red haired girl on the table snapped dropping her cutlery, seemingly the only one affected by Octavia's unfiltered words, as no one among the five other girls dared to say anything, they know better and they weren't Gwen either.
"Octavia thought we had an agreement" The dark haired man at the head of the table, her father, said as he looked at Octavia through his squared glasses. He just wanted to have a peaceful dinner with his seven daughters, even though they were from different mothers, they were all able to to behave and give him a quiet lunch like he demanded. But Octavia was certainly the only one he could not control, even though she acted submissive it was something that still puzzled him. The more he thought about it the more irritated he became.
"Oh that?, you forgot to keep your part, what else can I do if not remind you."
"I would have loved to punish you b..."
"...but you still remember what happened last time you did" Octavia said lazily, her ocean blue eyes not leaving the bowl of chicken soup in front of her.
"Octavia please, let's just have a peaceful lunch ."
"Yeah I think so too since we should save the troubles for the the eighth daughter we're about to welcome"
"What ?! I thought this was all of us dad?"
"Apparently you thought wrong" Octavia said offering her an answer as their father didn't seem to have one, since he was busy trying to clean the mess he just caused by spewing the drink he was just about to gulp from his mouth.
"Dad? "
"Tell me she's just joking around"
"You all know better than think so"
A handsome boy of about 13 years of old said as he appeared out of nowhere, sat down before picking up one of the wine glass with his tattooed hand.
"Roman, your father talked about you not having any more tattoos"
"And last time I checked you weren't his dad, just his father's brother"
"Octavia?"
"Yes dad?"
"no more words from you, please, at least not till after we're done with our meal." He added the last part as Octavia raised a perfectly carved eyebrow at him, asking if he really thought she could do that.
"Octavia?"
"Well no more tattoo talks then?"
"Fine , we have an agreement"
" Love you sis" Roman blew Octavia a kiss, he loved to think she had a crush on him even though they were cousins and she was older than him.
"Hmmph, we still have a lot to talk about dad, we are having another sister and it isn't funny." the elegant girl who had been quiet for long finally spoke as she flipped her hair, unlike the others, she had just few servings in her plates.
"Don't be so insecure Tess, seems like you've forgotten you're no longer the most beautiful one since Octavia returned, for all I care the new girl could be the ugliest of us, not like any of us it's not good looking. Besides your mode......"
Octavia tuned out listening to her sisters, not like she wouldn't enjoy the conversation that would follow after. She just had more important things on her mind, like the masked boy she saw yesterday night at Deva high.
*The previous night*
"we meet again sweet heart" An lee said, Totally ignoring the white top splattered in dark crimson and the beautiful long slender hands, wrapped skillfully around two curved Daggers, each proving how loyal they were to their owner. All he wanted to see were those shining blue eyes and the once long jet black hair now cut short, that fluttered in the wind. He tilted his head slightly as he smirked at the stunning blue eyed girl glaring at him for delaying her.
"Again? Then I think I might want to eliminate you."
"Best humor i've heard in a while"
