The Latin Brotherhood

Chapter 5

When we came back to the house , I ran straight back to my room and locked the door. I took the so called piece of clothing and took a shower to get rid of all the smells on my body. The cold water hit my body and finally my muscles relaxed . I stayed there for a long time , mourning my past life , the life they stole from me . I closed my eyes trying to remember what life was like when I had my parents , but couldn't recall many memories from my childhood , the only memory that I recalled better than the others was the one right before the car fall of the cliff . I also could remember the feeling of the boy's arms around me . I never got his name , or maybe they told me and I don't remember , after all I don't remember anything much from those days I spend in the kind family's home . After some time , the bathroom seemed foggy and my had lighter so I went out .

- Ah ! ,- the scream came out of me before I thought about it . Inside of my room , in my bed was the devil himself . Gabriel looked more casual than ever , wearing just a black shirt and jeans , which sculpted his body perfectly . I looked at his face , as beautiful as ever , but he was already looking at me , and when our eyes met a smirk broke on his face , and he got up . Gabriel must have been more than 6 feet because he towered over me , without any difficulty . Gabriel's brown eyes locked with mine , and his smirk grew bigger . He wasn't as tall as Noel , but he had more muscles than Noel .Now that I think about it , their change was obvious , Noel belonged in an article for hot , powerful man , Gabriel belonged in a wanted poster , though I was sure that he would be the criminal you would make up excuses for . He lifted his hand and touched my neck with his knuckles ,and then he paused .

- What happened ? ,- his eyes seemed to darken with anger

- What do you mean ?

- What happened to your neck , Red ? ,- his voice dark and stern ,- Who did this to you ?,- he turned me around to look at the mirror . He was behind me still gripping my neck , all dressed in black , tattoos on his arm and neck ,while I had only a little white towel on that I was scared would fall . We were opposites , but that didn't mean I wanted him any less . I finally looked at my neck , which just as I suspected had finger marks , as red as my hair covering it , fucking Lorenzo .

- Tell me Red , who dared to touch you ? Who dared to mark your skin , who touched what is mine ? ,- he said "main" as if it was venom that would poison the man that touched me , as if it was a shield from the whole world .

- Oh, this ?! Its just an accident , really . I was doing my job , things happen .

- Not these type of thing , Red . ,- He turned me again , so I was facing him , and started walking me to the bed . He pushed me so that I was laying down and hovered over me . ,- Tell me , was it that bastard ? Was it Lorenzo ?

- I... - my silence seemed to be the answer he needed .

- I'll take care of it ,- his hands were on my hips now , and his face so close to mine . I looked down at his lips , something about his hands was so familiar , so comforting , and his lips perfect for mine . Gabriel gave me a little smirk , so close to a smile , and came closer to me . ,- You drive me mad , woman ! What am I supposed to do with you ?

- I ... I don't know. What do you think ? ,- he gave me a breathless smile

- You don't want to know what I think about Red , never , especially when I am with you . That is a less you want to go to hell with me . ,- I looked at his eyes again , what the hell is wrong with me ? Wake up Zoe !

- I'm going to hell anyways .,- something in me changed , well hell , I mean if I die , I don't want to die with regrets , and so I lifted my hand and touched his cheek . Our faces were closer than ever now , and I lifted my head a little so that now our noses were touching , just a little left and ... he pulled away .

- Get dressed so that we can go downstairs . I will tell Olga to get you something for your neck . , - he went to the door and opened , but then turned around ,- You look hot as fuck flushed and half naked, Red !

~~~~~~~~~~

Olga was a middle aged woman , probably in her fifties , who helped me take care of the marks . She took me down to the kitchen after , so that we could talk some more as she cooked . I did feel bad about distracting her , but truth be told she had been in the family for quite some time and she was the nicest . I was sitting in one of the stools when Gabrielle and Noel came in .

- Mm , that smells delicious Olga ,- Noel's voice was calm and relaxed , he too not in his usual suit . How have you been darling? ,- this time he addressed me.

- Good, thank you ! ,- his flirtatious gaze ran a marathon on my body . I was dressed in shorts and a tank top , nothing to much , but as usal man took everything as a message for their dicks .

- Hope you have prepared for the princess .

- Who ?

- Vanessa , the princess of this land is coming over for dinner . ,- he had an amused look but also a hint of annoyance .

- Oh, can't wait ! ,- I gave him a smile back , and then turned my had at the direction of the door . Gabriel was standing there looking casual , arms clothes , hair messed up , and an angry look , that something in me suspected, it wasn't meaningless .
