Chapter 10

I gulped. "Uhh...", I started, my throat dry. They smirked at each other, and started to slowly push me against the wall.

"They're gonna kill me", I thought to myself, desperately looking for a way out. They had all looked so angelic when I had seen them in school... I could now feel their hot breath on my face, and I cowered against the wall.

"Good morning, I see you all met", said a calm voice. I turned my head to the door, to find out my rescuer was my stepmother. "Hey Mrs Chester", said the twins in unision, and gave her a charming smile, very different to the one they had given me.

"Hey Mum", said Harry, and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

I turned around, surprised. Did he just call her Mum?

"Come down for breakfast, everyone", she said, and calmly shut the door. And didn't she see them trying to kill me before?

I glanced at the three boys, who looked as surprised as me. I chuckled at their faces, and they immediately put all their attention on me.

"Who are you?", asked Harry, narrowing his eyes at me.

"I'm-", I started, when I realized I didn't know what to tell them. "I'm your sister", I blurted out. "Well, step-sister" I corrected myself.

"What?", asked Harry. He tried to keep his voice calm, but I noticed the nervousnes in his voice. The twins looked at each other shocked, and exchanged warning glances.

"It's not you, it's not", muttered Harry under his breath. He stared at me, paralyzed, like if I a ghost. He suddenly turned around and ran out of the room.

We stared at the door for a moment.

Taylor was the first to break the silence. "Hey, I know who you are", he said, smiling cheekily.

"Youre clumsy"
