At Kevin's Mercy 2: Reclaimed

14. Don't assume

The entire afternoon I took care of Isabelle her needs, her clothes, her hair and even her make up.
That last part made me a bit jealous. Kevin doesn't even let me wear make up.
It felt like it has been ages since I even touched mascara.
And now I had the best of the best to work with, only it wasn't for me.

After Isabelle was all dress up and ready, she took me to the living room where Jasmine was sitting in a different outfit.
She had clearly paid attention to what I had told her about the lace.
The dress she wore was short, the sleeves were long, top to bottom was a pretty patron of black lace that laid on a skin color layer of fabric.
It created the illusion of see through without actually seeing anything.
She wore black high heels under it and I had to say it looked stunning, a little provocative but still stunning.

It just wasn't what I meant when I said Kevin liked lace... he likes lace underwear and slutty lace outfits that barely cover a thing.
The kind of stuff you don't wear in public...
I'm not even sure he would let me wear anything so revealing in public, the times I did see anyone other then Kevin I was always dressed decent.

Jasmine's slightly surprised facial expression when she saw me told me she unlike Isabelle did remember me but she didn't seem to care.
She simply ignored me unless I had to fill up her cup.
Isabelle and Jasmine spend the time talking about Kevin, shopping and some other topics I didn't pay attention to while I tended to their need.

At one point Isabelle got up, she was tired of waiting for Kevin.

"Jazzy he can be here any minute, we should go greet him by the door."

Jasmine gave Isabelle an annoyed glare and remained seated.
I figured she didn't appreciate the nickname, Isabelle however was oblivious to it.
That girl really did not have a social radar.

"Isabelle, go greet him without me. You have missed him for so long, it will give you a moment to catch up. Besides, this will be the first time I see him. I want to make a good impression... and not look too desperate."

The last part she whispered under her breath so Isabelle didn't hear that, but because I was standing so close I heard it anyway.
I doubt with the outfit she's wearing she'll impress Kevin in a good way, he's not the kind of guy that want's a girl to show off her assets to everyone.

"Fine, if that's what you want."

Unfazed Isabelle turned and gestured for me to follow her.

"Come, we'll wait by the door. I want to be the first to greet my dear brother when he returns."

This could become interesting... what will Kevin do if he sees me?
There are still marks on my face from where his dad hit me, he was already pissed about that bruise.
I hope he doesn't blame his sister for what his father did to me, she may be an airhead but she didn't treat me badly.

We left the room and I followed a few steps behind Isabelle while we walked down the long halls.
Suddenly I was grabbed from behind and pulled into one of the rooms we had just past.

"Father?"

I heard Isabelle's surprised voice when she heard my startled yelp before it was muffled by a hand.

"Don't worry your pretty little head about this, sweetheart. Kevin can be here any minute. Go greet your dear brother."

My heart skipped a beat, Kevin is really that close?
That means he made it in time!
Kevin's father stood by the door opening, blocking it while two guys in suits kept me in place.
He stepped in the room when Isabelle walked off and closed the door.
All eyes focused on me and I felt my heart rate spike.
