A'Shyla's Pov

I'm currently sitting on Imaiah's couch downstairs. I knew shit was about to get messy cause i could hear Imaiah and Sarai arguing.

*THUD*

"The fuck was that?!" I yelled up the stairs.

No reply.

I ran up the stairs and barged into Imaiah's room, seeing her on the floor with blood dripping from her mouth.

I felt my fists clench and without saying a word i starting swinging at Sarai, not letting her lay a finger on me.

I punched her right in the jaw and she was on the floor but that didn't stop me from swinging.. i kept throwing punches until i saw blood.

I got off of her and ran straight over to Imaiah.

"Imaiah baby, look at me mama.." I said sounding sad.

"Huh.." She mumbled.

I instantly picked her up, bridal style and ran down the stairs with her, placing her on the couch. I swiftly made my way to the freezer and grabbed a ice pack, placing it on her bruised eye whilst i cleaned the blood.

I was so beyond irritated, my blood was boiling.

"Stay here mai mai, i'll be right back." I stated, placing a kiss on her forehead.

I stormed up the stairs and back into Imaiah's room. I grabbed Sarai by her arm and dragged her out of the room, down the stairs n all the way out of the house, throwing her on the porch.

"Don't ever fucking come back!" I yelled before slamming the door.

I walked back over to Imaiah and stared at her, she still looked so effortlessly beautiful, despite her wounds.

"Come here mama.." I put my arms out to her, waiting for her to make her way to me.

I watched as she slowly walked to me and i picked her up, carrying her back upstairs to her room.

"Can you stay with me tonight..?" She mumbled quietly but i still managed to hear her.

"Of course mama." I sat down on her bed with her on my lap.

She rested her head on my shoulder and snuggled into my neck. She's so pure and soft.. why would someone ever want to hurt her.

"Baby.." She said lowly, sounding tired.

"Hm?" I replied.

I felt her kissing and sucking on my neck. I know she's gon leave some love bites, damn.

"mm.." I moaned slightly.

I heard her giggle and then yawn.

"Bedtime baby, come on." She mumbled, climbing off of me and getting under her covers.

I pouted when she got off of my lap but i climbed into her bed, right next to her. As soon as i laid down.. she climbed on top of me, getting comfortable and laid down.
