Yours Forever, Dragonfly.

Part 15

Brandon

I'm sitting in Owen's living room with the rest of my brothers waiting for him and the small woman. She's gorgeous, but I really don't see why most of the guys are so out of sorts because of her. The girl is just a pretty face and honestly, after the whole Kayli debacle I could care less about forming any type of a relationship with a women.

Although, I do have to admit when she cut off Owen and took charge, I was a bit turned on. Looking over I see they both of them walking back into the room. She has a cute blush on her face while Owen surprisingly has a small smirk on his.

I look around at my brothers and see that each of them have all their focus on her, even my twin Corey. This surprises me because I am pretty sure he is gay, which I have no problem with, I just don't understand what he finds so transfixing about her. She sits down next to North and starts to address us, "Hello all, sorry for the interruption before, I would like to introduce myself before I tell you about what happened yesterday. My name is S."

Everyone just stares at her and she begins to fidget. These idiots are making her uncomfortable, I sigh and begin making the introductions. "Hi there, I am Brandon and these are my brothers Corey, Marc, Nathan. I believe you have already met the rest." she looks at me with gratitude and an adorable blush. 

That finally shakes the rest of the group and they begin talking to her. She gives them a big smile which transforms her whole face and now I see why all these men are falling all over themselves to make her happy. Seeing her engaged and excited soothes a bit of my already beaten and battered soul. This didn't make sense, I never felt this way before, and I know I sound like a dumb kid with a crush. Believe me I am cringing at myself right now, muting my inner dialogue I turn my attention to S.

"So, uh, I am just going to get straight to the point and pick up where Owen stopped at. I was in the kitchen getting some lemonade for my guests when my attention shifted to the gift I had received. Not thinking anything of it. I opened it and.." she begins to look a little green and I see some of my brothers about to say something but she just shakes her head and takes a deep breath. "When I opened the gift the first thing I saw was the blood and I realized that it was a bird that had been mutilated with all of its organs taken out."

I see North grab her hand and she gives him a soft sad smile, a complete opposite of the radiant smile she had granted us before. I look over and see Corey looking pale, nudging him slightly he looks at me and I give him a questioning look. He takes a deep breath and asks S, "was the wrapping black and red? A black ribbon?" everyone looks over at him with various expressions, some with curiosity and others in shock.

Owen is the first to speak up, "how do you know that Mr. Corey?" , my twin begins to fidget and then says "I was looking through some of the case files and read a statement given by one of the victim's roommates saying that a week before she went missing that her roommate had received a gift. It had red wrapping and a black bow. The gift contained a dead bird..." he ends quietly and I can feel the blood draining from my face. I look over at everyone else and they all finally realize what this means for S. She is the next victim.

"What's wrong? Why is everyone looking like someone is going to die?" S asks in a confused voice. That questions seemed to jolt everyone out of their thoughts and Gabriel grabs S in a tight embrace. "This is fucking bullshit! Nothing is happening to my Trouble. We better come up with a plan super mother fucking fast because I am about to freak the fuck out." S looks confused but hugs Gabe and gives us a pleading look.
