Blood & Pain: My Mafia Stepbrother

chapter 8 Mia

Mia p.o.v.

I was laying in my bed when I hear voices from outside. The bodyguards are talking to someone maybe he was roman I can't hear them properly. When Roman ran away from me again I got so angry, I don't know why but he is very weird.

Why is he acting like that, one second he was talking to me another second he just ran away. Is he bipolar? I was too irritated by him that is why I decided to talk to those handsome bodyguards to get him out of my head.

I was hoping that maybe I can make some friends. I know it sounds desperate but seriously I want some good friends. I called my old friends but they all are ignoring me and honestly, I am not surprised. Those people were my friends just because I used to do their homework and assignment and in return, they invited me to those silly parties so that I don't look like a complete nerd and be saved from bullies.

I talked to those bodyguards at least one of them was friendly his name is Aston. He might be in his early thirties and he is so funny. The other bodyguard looks so hot but he is so arrogant If Aston wasn't there, I'd be sure to get embarrassed.

Roman is asking about other bodyguards who should be under my window. Why there is so much security I am going to ask about this tomorrow. I think he is going to come inside. I closed my eyes so that he thinks that I am sleeping because I am not in the mood for his bipolar behavior.

I heard the door closing but still, there is no sound of footsteps. I feel his eyes on my body maybe I am just imagining...

I remembered that I did not wear a blanket and I lay with my back to the door he can see my body clearly and think about this a shiver ran through my body. I am wearing shorts and a tank top which barely covers anything. I wear them because they are so comfortable if I knew that he is going to come into my room while I am sleeping I must have slept with a blanket.

I still don't hear any sound and the feeling of his eyes on my body is still there. Is he looking at me or I am just imagining? After about a minute or two there was the sound of the window opening. He must be checking those bodyguards.

My heart is beating so fast like it is going to come outside from my mouth. It's like I am in some kind of horror movie. I felt someone standing in front of my bed. Should I open my eyes to see? But what if he is still there and staring at me? I feel his eyes on me which gave me a tingling feeling between my thighs. He is seeing me almost naked. Why am I not covering myself?

So many possibilities are coming to my mind what if he started kissing on my thighs and then to my stomach and then... f**k thinking about this give shivers to my body...

And what if he is not even there?

My inner voice scolds me. I decided to open my eyes but then I feel a blanket on my body. Maybe he thought I am feeling cold. He was just acting like a caring brother and here I am thinking those dirty things.

I have to stop myself before I do something and get rejected. There is something wrong with my mind. I take a deep sigh and wrap the blanket tightly, maybe now I can sleep...

••••••••••••••••

"Mia, wake up honey," my mother said with her fake caring voice.

"Yeah just one more minute"

"No, hurry up you are going to your brother's house to meet his fiance"

What the f**k. He has a girlfriend. Whatever I don't care. Right? He is my brother after all it's not like he is ever going to be attracted to me anyway.

"Roman has a girlfriend you never told me about this," I asked my mother

"No, not roman your other brother. Remember I told you about Reiner's adopted son Dane." My mother told me. Honestly, I don't remember any Dane. Maybe she told me once but I didn't pay any attention.

"Okay, will you give me an hour to get dressed or did you want me to go like this. I can go right now if you want" I tell her while raising my one eyebrow.

"No..your hair looks like a bird's nest and your body stings please mia I am begging you don't do this here. Reiner has a reputation. Go get dressed and wear a dress, not your old baggy clothes" my mom ordered me and went out of my room.

I hate her. Reiner has a reputation. f**k Reiner. She is afraid I go outside without getting dressed properly because I used to do this. One day I show up at my father's business party wearing a sweatshirt and my favorite strawberry pajama shorts because I don't want to go and get dressed and my mother was forcing me. I had a fever at that time but who cares right? But my father didn't say anything he introduce me to everyone without getting ashamed he even fought with my mother when he know that had a fever and still my mother forced me.

I shook my head and stood up. It is not the time to think about old times. Anyway, I have to listen to mother bullshit just for one more year then I will be free.

I go to the bathroom and brush my teeth. After a quick shower, I go to my closet to find a dress. I don't want to wear a dress but I have to due to my mother's order. There are so many dresses. They all are so beautiful. I pick a white short dress which is sleeveless and with a deep neck. It is too short for my liking but what can I do I don't have a choice because other dresses are more revealing than this one.

After getting ready I applied some mascara and my peach lipgloss. There are so much lipstick and makeup given by Reiner but I am not gonna use it because I don't know how to do makeup, I don't want to look like a raccoon.

I didn't blow dry my hair because I like them little wet it gave them a wavy curl which looks beautiful. I see myself in the mirror and I am shocked that I am looking beautiful. Deep in my heart, I know that I am dressing to impress someone but I don't want to think about this. I can't...

I go downstairs to the kitchen. Everyone is already sitting at the dining table. Reiner is sitting near my mother and roman is sitting in the head seat. That seat should be Reiner because he is in charge obviously but who am I to judge?

Roman is sitting in the main seat and doing something on his mobile when I enter the room. My mother see me or I say see my dress and smiled. Roman see me just for one second and then he started eating. What the serious f**k is this. He didn't even see me clearly, not even a good morning, little sis??? Whatever it is, it's not like I am dressed for him right... I take a deep breath and sit opposite my mother and Reiner.

"Good morning mia, did you sleep well?" Reiner asked with his weird smile. This man looks more dangerous when he smiles.

"Good morning and yes I had a good sleep. And thanks for the cello I love it but you don't have to do this"

"It's no problem your mother told me how much you love to play. If you want anything else just free to ask it's your home too"

I want to shout and fight with Reiner but he is so nice to me that I can't do that. Why does he have to be so nice? He is acting in no way that someone like him can be so nice. I read so many articles about him that how arrogant he is. Why is he being nice to me?

" I am getting late for work. You all enjoy your meal" Roman said and stand up.

He didn't even finish his breakfast. I see him and he is already staring at me. Our eyes meet just for a second but he turns away. What happens to him looks like someone wakes up on the wrong side of the bed...

"You are not going anywhere. You and mia are going to Dane's house for the weekend. He wants to meet his sister. And did you forget that from Monday you are starting your new job?" Reiner said to him.

He is talking normally but there is a warning in his tone or it's just me who is imagining things.

Roman didn't say anything just nod. I see him his jaw is clenched and he is staring at Reiner. He looks angry but still hot. f**k what am I thinking...

"Finish your breakfast and come outside am waiting in my car," Roman said to me while staring at me.

What is with him today...I see him but his eyes are not in my face. He is staring at my cleavage but just for a second. Am I imagining again? After ordering me like a dog he went away.

So a weekend with Roman... Looks like I can find out that I am imagining or he is attracted to me too.
