Kahlan: rebirth of a mafia goddess

Ryan Bruce

Evan kept looking at his brother's face in a daze, Ryan couldn't help getting annoyed "what?" he coldly asked still frowning. This punk is getting more gutsy these days, daring to interrupt his phone call. "uh?! what...oh yes!  yes I wanted to show you the beautiful girl I just saw. what do you think bro? pretty right?" After speaking the environment decreased in temperature. uhuh! he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, his heart sank and he didn't dare to look at his brother's face. shit! what was I thinking talking about a woman to this demon. "seems like you have a lot of free time lately huh" Ryan was emitting a dangerous aura making Evan swallow hard. "hahaha! bro what are you talking about" he raised his hand to playfully hit his brother's shoulder but seeing his sharp gaze he froze awkwardly bringing down his hand. "bro! I'm serious, I have a lot of things to do. Grandfather! Grandfather has been forcing me to handle company issues and father, shit! I don't even want to talk about mother. please don't add to my stress" Evan begged almost falling to lick his brother's shoes. His brother was the one person he didn't dare to offend. He can offend anyone even his grandfather the fearsome Xander Bruce and get away with it but his brother was a demon he didn't dare! He remembered suffering in one of their factions with hellish trainings that almost took his life after he sent a woman to his brother's room. "Okay then, since you have a lot of time to look at pretty women, I will have mother send you on blind dates" Argh! Evan pulled his hair, he knew this unforgiving brother will never let him off, he can already imagine himself in boring blind dates listening to the proud remarks of those so called socialites about themselves and then his mom will force him to marry one. Then he will die an old bored man "no no bro please! I can't get married now. I have not enjoyed my life. I'm still twenty" he cried grabbing his brother's arm. He really wanted to cry now! his cuteness anyone would fall for was not working on his brother. "get lost" Ryan spat emotionlessly, shaking off Evan's hands from his arm. At the same time, he glanced at the girl Evan pointed at. Amazement flashed across his eyes and then it became coldly emotionless again. Evan gave up and accepted his fate, looking at the girl once again he sighed. "Bro do you think everything is right with that little girl" something wasn't right, the girl's eyes was swollen it was obvious she has been crying and since she's at the airport it meant she was probably leaving the country but where was her family, they are supposed to send her off right? just a bunch of guards watching her as she is sitting with a downcast expression, she looked so pathetic. "it's none of our business, let's go" They both stood up walking away, Ryan turned back to take a last look at  the girl and then continued walking on. If someone had told him that his fate will be intertwined with the little woman's and that he was going to fall head over heels for that same woman, he would never believe it but of course that would happen later.
