Sienna Galeon
Remember I said I can be so petty? Scratch that, I can be so much worse.
Especially when they put me in a guest room and telling them to leave me alone. They did and here I am baracading the door with furniture and chairs for the night.
Then lay down in bed miserable.
Until someone knocks on the door and tries to come in. The door jams closed everytime that person opens it just the slightest. Ha.
"Miss Galeon? It's me Erica. I'm here to bring you your clothes for tonight."
This girl. "I'm fine with being naked. Go away!" I shout flipping the bird to the baracaded door.
"Miss...you must know something and I can't say it through this door." Erica says.
Grumbling under my breath I get up and move the stuff before opening the door with anger, "I don't freaking care! Go!" I shoo her away.
But she doesn't budge, "I over heard Master Nicolai in the hallway with his men. You must let me in."
Unsettled I hesitate before opening the door and inviting her in. Once closing the door she admits to me, "there will be dinner tonight and I over heard them talking about something so awful--"
"Just tell me." I interupt her.
Erica gulps, "you are to be escorted by one of his men to dinner tonight. My warning to you is to don't drink the wine. It's poisioned."
What? No...
Nicolai may be a stone cold killer but he would never do such a thing.
Yeah, Sienna, until he killed an innocent man in front of you.
My heart stutters, "he--he's wanting to poison me?"
Was I ever to be alive past any point in my life with this man?
Why me? Why must life hit me with such a life of unloved, unwanting, and misery? My Papa is actually not my blood nor Mama, the ones who raised me. He killed my brother Devon Maritto. Greta...oh Greta she must have known too.
A lie. A life full of lies.
And I'm still living in one, "Nico wants to kill me?" I say more to myself.
Now I can see marrying him didn't matter nor his words from earlier.
A trickster.
As Uncle Oral had warned me...that I was a dead girl.
Erica didn't look as saddened by this news but frowns nonetheless, "be ready in five. A man will escort you to dinner."
Then she leaves closing the door behind her.
Leaving me here in a deafening silence.
Not but a minute later when I check the mirror fixing my mascara smudges to under my eyes a loud knock brings me to attention. I walk over to the bedroom door and open it, seeing an unfamiliar man standing in front of me with a motionless face.
I didn't say anything as he turns and leave down the hall for me to follow him. We make our way pass many rooms and then a laundry room until we pass through the kitchen and into the dinning room.
Nico is already sat at the head of the table in his wheelchair while the twins are no where to be seen. Nobody but him and me staring at one another, trapping each other's gaze before I break the lifeline of it and take a seat away from him--on the other end of the table.
I can see he didn't like that but he says nothing as servers serve our plates and fill our glasses with water.
No wine in sight to my relief. Maybe Erica was shitting on me trying to scare me for some reason.
We eat in silence.
I couldn't help but look up to see his face but advert my gaze when I realize he already had his eyes on me. The heat from his gaze burns me inside out.
"Look at me, Sienna." He orders me across the table.
I refuse.
Because as soon as he said that a glass of wine some how appeared by my glass of water.
No.
I finally tear my gaze from the wine and look straight into him, betrayal and so much emotions swirling upon my eyes. Nicos eyebrows furrow when he see my face, "Sienna?"
He must wanted to get rid of me since the beginning as revenge for Edmond. Using me as a pawn. Well what happens if I take a sip of this wine and just leave this world in peace. I already have a life I wasn't meant to have. To marry, to have kids, to have that puppy I wanted. To have sex for gods sake.
If he wanted me gone, so be it. I wouldn't have to be so heart broken anymore.
I pick up the wine glass, "I shouldn't have fallen for you. But I couldn't resist you." Swirling the glass of red before touching my lip to the edge of the rim, "I fell in love with you and now I'm seeing how such of an idiot I am." I murmur.
Nicolais eyes widen and mouth parts, "what?"
Tipping my head back I knock back all the wine to the back of my throat, tasting something odd about it in the after taste, but finished it and place the empty glass down onto the table.
"Who gave you wine? What the fuck!" Nico shouts into the kitchen from afar when his gaze turns back to me, "Sienna--"
I cough out loud cutting him off.
And then I cough and cough and cough feeling something burning in my throat and nostrils--like I was drowning.
Abruptly standing up and knocking my chair back I claw at my throat as some type of liquid foams out of my mouth--
I'm choking. He in fact poisoned it. I guess he gets what he wants as he always does.
If I wasn't choking to death I'd have been surprised when I see Nicolai spring out of his wheelchair and lunge for me as my body gives out and almost lands to the floor.
"Sienna! Baby, what the fuck?!" He shouts in outrage, "you," he points at someone, "call the doctor, now!"
My vision blurs while feeling arms wrap around my body and lifts me up, "don't you fucking croak on me now. Sienna! Open those damn eyes!"
"You...wanted me gone..." I breath out in a choking panic before my eyes and body settles into arms of someone who is running.
No, it couldn't be Nico running...he would hurt himself again.
Why should I care? I'm literally dying right now because of him.
Darkness almost takes me when voices approach and leave.
"Killing you is the last thing I want." The voice says in hoarseness, though I must be dreaming those words.
Because this is exactly what the voice wanted. Or the wine wouldn't have been tainted and tampered with.
Darkness comes in and the last thing on my mind was if I was ever going to see a big brother I never got the chance to meeting.
