The Dark Witch's Daughter

What if i don't want all eyes on me?

As soon as I got home I decided to make spaghetti with meat sauce, garlic bread, salad, and chocolate cake. Thankfully we always have icecream, to put with the cake. I hope I have enough food for everyone.
When my Tia gets home I run to my room to get out something nice to wear then jump in the shower. I get out in record time, run to my room and get ready. I just finished doing my hair in soft ringlets about to run my fingers through them when Roman texts me letting me know they are on the way.
I finish then head out to the living room, I'm so nervous I start playing with the ivy on my wristband.
My Tia comes over to me, "you look beautiful mija calm down." I see she has changed into simple but nice dark wash jeans and a flowery blouse.
We hear a knock and we head for the door. I open it to find my mate with his parents. He looks very handsome with his black jeans and dark green button down shirt. Smiling I welcome them in our home. We make our way to the dining table where the food has been placed. It's only after sitting I realized that my Tia has been working with his mom at the public library. "Its a pleasure to meet you Mr. and Mrs. Lunas, my name is Ivy Littlewood and I'm Roman's mate."
"Yes he's told us a little about you, its wonderful to meet you as well. Roman has told us that you said you have something serious you want to discuss can I ask what that might be sweetie?" His mother asks.
My Tia clears her throat, "actually Nickie I'm more equipped to this part of the night I hope you don't mind."
A perplexed look crosses their faces but nod for my Tia to continue. Roman sensing my apperehention takes my hand rubbing my knuckles with his thumb. I give him a thankful smile hoping that he doesn't freak out.  "First I think we should eat though or our food will get cold," my Tia smiles.  After we finish eating my Tia begins, "as you all know Ivy is my niece, I have raised her since she was two. What we thought best to tell you tonight, you know sooner rather than later is who her birth mother and unfortunately my sister is. Her name was Belladonna."
As soon as she said the name there was some Growls coming from Roman and his Father. He loosened his hold on me, so naturally I thought "this is it hes going to reject me" so I started to retrieve my hand. Before I could really move it away though he tightened his grip again causing me to look at him.
He looks at me and smiles, "I only loosened my grip so I didn't hurt your hand not to let you go."
Tears filled my eyes and I laughed, without thinking I leaned into him kissing him on the lips. Pulling back fast I could feel the heat in my cheeks. I think I caught him off guard cuz he looks a but dazed then he laughs, "I've been wanting to kiss you since I met you, how did you beat me to the punch?"
"Because you're a gentleman," I say with a sweet smile.
His parents laugh and my Tia smiles. Then she continues once again, "we were worried you would hold it against us. My sister, I'm ashamed even calling her that, has more or less been disowned by us both."
"Even though she is family by blood? I mean I know more than most what a piece of work she is but, she trails off. Wait dont tell me, she didn't, she turns to me then back to my Tia with a horrified face, please tell me what I'm thinking is wrong!?" Roman's mom asks.
When my Tia's eyes water, Roman's mom comes to me and hugs me. "I'm sorry, I know you don't know me but I feel I must hold you, I'm so sorry I know what it was like to be at her mercy." I return her hug.
Roman finally catching on and snarls, I turn to him and hold him with blinding speed. He buried his face in my neck breathing in my sent. His mom goes to her seat and tells me I can always call her if I need to talk about it.
"I don't remember much," I tell her, "I was still small but she left a mark on me that doesn't go away, it was done with some kind of magic brander, then I take off my wristband for them to see. Roman and his dad's eyes turn black so I go to cover it again, but Roman took my wrist to examine it closer, "I can't believe that bitch did this to you."
My Tia tells them the rest having to stop periodically so I can calm Roman. By the time she finishes with how I finally came out of my coma, yeah I was in a coma for six months after my tia took me from Belladonna. It's almost eleven thirty. His mother has tear stains on her face, she feels some how responsible for not saving me. My Tia tells her that she took me from her two weeks before she was taken the second time and I was being held in a different spot that she had been in.
I get up and hug her, "I would never blame you," I tell her.
To lighten the mood I say, "it's a good thing we ate before this conversation," I smile. Roman hugs me from behind placing a kiss the base of me neck.
"Leave it to you to make us smile again," he sounds tired.
Roman's dad then lays a bit of a bomb on me that I should have expected but after everything I totally forgot. "So when will you be moving in?"
My only thought was "Huh?"
