After making small talk with Riley, both Mia and Riley both entered the Garrisons with an air of effortless confidence. Everyone's eyes snapped towards them, some in envy, most in adoration. The Peaky Blinders were the type of people everyone wanted to date or would be terrified of going near. What the people were curious about most was the new girl, Mia, with her incomparable beauty and unrivalled popularity.
Mia had only been in Small Heath for a couple of days, she had made quite a reputation of herself as she was always down at the orphanage rather it was bringing food or spending time with them making sure that they are well looked after. And if she wasn't at the orphanage she was down at the Garrisons working not like Riley knew as she kept it from him knowing how protective he is over her and wouldn't like her working in a bar full of men who would throw themselves at her.
She glanced around the pub as people drank, smoked and chatted loudly ignoring the looks she receiving from men as she didn't look like most women and was insanely beautiful and knew for a fact she wasn't a whore especially since Riley was her brother but it wasn't like they had a chance with her as soon as they even came close to her Riley could of chased them off the other way and because of who is he he found it amusing how people were terrified and wouldn't think about going against him or the Shelby's.
Mia stopped beside her brother, who leaned his arms on the bar top smirking at the barmaid with a flirtatious look on his face. Grace who didn't seem bothered raised her brows at him not interested in the slightest causing Mia to chuckle under her breathe at the look of surprise on his face as he wasn't quite used to being rejected by women, " what can I get you to drink?" He questioned quickly changing the look of surprise on his face back to a smirk as he looked Grace up and down.
"I'm so not interested" Grace mused as Harry made his way over to them glaring over at the blonde taking over on serving Riley. Mia was amused by the blonde barmaid, who seemed like she didn't care about who is it she was talking to and would just say it as it is which would amuse her even more at the sight of the offended look on her brothers face as Grace didn't give into his charms.
"Now, no need to be hostile" Riley told her as he leaned against the bar, tilting his head to the side as he tried to figure her out. Grace rolled her eyes as she rested her elbows on the bar, " let me guess, your the kind of guy who extorts his power and charm over women because you think you can"Grace spoke as she watched the man every move and knew she got under his skin as he started muttering curses under his breathe.
Riley placed a smile on his face as he turned to face his sister and questioned, " and what would my little sister like to drink. On me" Mia raised her brows as she was about to answer him when suddenly an arm wrapped around her shoulder causing her to smell whiskey radiate off the man and knew exactly who it was John Shelby who had been flirting with the girl ever since he met her mostly because it gets to Riley and gets him riled up.
"Whatever she wants. It's on the house" John spoke, his eyes wandering down to Mia who rolled her eyes with a small smile on her face knowing how flirtatious he can be just to get on her brother nerves. Arthur appeared on the other side of her brother just as drunk as his younger brother causing Riley to clench his jaw hitting both men on the back of their heads at the looks they were sending to his little sister.
