The Gang Leader's Daughter

Chapter 1

"You're weak! Ugly! No one loves you other than me!" He shouted.

I whimpered. I was now silently crying.

"You stupid bitch! You can never look to any other man. You understand me?"

"Y-yes, I-I understand"

He slapped me again. Harder this time. He gripped my hair hard that it made me scream.

He then whispered to my ear:

"You are MINE. And MINE only"

I nodded.

I can't do anything, I'm stuck with him forever.

I wake up panting and sweats rolled down from my forehead again from another nightmare.

It's almost been 3 years since Jacob abused me. He was my boyfriend for 3 and a half years and I still cannot believe how much I loved the man. I mean, yes, my feelings for him were true but he got possessive over me until it got worse and worser.

I am now a matured and strong-willed woman. I left behind the weak and vulnerable me who just agrees to be beaten for some stupid reasons.

I opened my door and it's still dark on the hallways. I entered my room again and closed it then checked my digital clock.

3:24 A.M.

I groaned thinking it's still early and I wanted to rest but unfortunately my body resisted me from sleeping.

I shut my eyes for a few minutes but then gave up. I head towards my walk-in closet then changed into my workout clothes.

After a 2 good hours of working out and practiced throwing knives at the dummy targets. I reached my limit and decided to take a shower. I turned towards a corner and saw my older brother talking with someone via phone.

"Yeah yeah whatever... yes I promise to tell them as soon as I have the guts ok? Okay... take care..."

"Who was that?"

"SHI-" He visibly jumped an inch up in the air. He turned then let out a breath relieved that it was just me. Hmmm, I wonder why...

I gave him a questioning look. Referring to the phone.

"I uhmm.. that, uhhh, nothing... I mean No One!" He stuttered. He chuckled nervously.

Shocked. I didn't once see my brother like this. Nervous, Confused, and... I can't quite point out the other one.

I tilted my head then crossed my arms.

"Hmph! No One huh? Come on, Max tell me" I whined then followed by my best selling puppy face added with my bottom lip sticking out.

My brother groaned knowing he can't stand me with a cute face like this.

"It's Cleo, she's been telling me to man up and tell you *points at me* and the whole gang that she and me are..." He scratched the back of his neck.

Roselyn Cleo Martinez, his girlfriend from senior year high school up until now, is also known as the 'Lady of the Shadows'

"Are...?" I urged him to continue.

"Engaged" He looked down but I saw the gleam and happiness that screams from his deep blue eyes.

We almost had the same eye color but mine we're much lighter like the sky up above.

My jaw dropped when I finally registered what he had said.

"Finally!" I threw my arms up around his neck and pulled him in a hug.

He hugged back and looked at me. Smiling.

"You really do Love her, don't you?" I teased.

He blushed.

"God! What kind of question is that? Yes! Of course I do, would I be marrying her if I'm not head over heels for her?" He says in a 'duh' tone.

"Yep! Oookay...Got that. And in three..."

"Wait, what're you do--"

"Two..."

"H-hey!"

"And one"

"It's Cleo, she's been telling me to man up and tell you and the whole gang that she and me are..."

"Are...?"

"Engaged"

"Finally!"

"You really do Love her, don't you?"

"God! What kind of question is that? Yes! Of course I do, would I be marrying her if I'm not head over heels for her?"

Yup! I got all of those recorded on my phone and transported it to the main speaker, and now it is now echoing all throughout the estate.

I winked then giggled at my brother whose jaw is dropped.

"Y-you..." my brother stuttered. Again.

"Yep! I did a good job didn't I?" I grinned.

He raised his hand like he was about to slap me.

I covered my head and whimpered. But the slap never came.

Instead, I felt my brother crushed me in a bear hug. I patted his back then relaxed a bit.

I should've known that my family wouldn't hit me or do anything that'll hurt me because they know what I have been through.

"T-t-thank Y-you!" He cried on my shoulder.

"Anything for my big bro" I gave him a warm smile then patted his back.

"Congrats Max" I added.

"I really appreciate what you have just done Saph"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah whatever now! Scatter or go to father so that the two of you can finally discuss about this matter."

"Yeah, right, on it. See you later sis" he then pecked my cheek.

I laughed at him. I entered my room then proceeded to my bed. I saw a red envelope with my name on it lying between my 2 throw pillows.

I opened it and read the 3 italicized words.

Missed me Sunshine?

My face ran out of blood. I was screaming. I can't breath.

I know exactly who sent me this letter.

Jacob.

Just thinking about his name made me faint. I was getting dizzy then just in a mere second I blacked out.
