8 : Nightmares

A M E L L I A

TRIGGER WARNING (MENTION OF BLOOD, ABUSE, AND SEXUAL ABUSE)

It's was already night, and I'm late, I should be home by 4, it's already 4:05. Even a minute of being late is a sin in this household, Eve's not home today, I can't escape from them today.

They always bring Eve to her Aunts place, well sometimes Eve doesn't agree, but most of the times she can't say no.

Scared for my life I ran as fast as I could, I reached home at 4:15. Oh heck, I'm dead literally.

I'm thinking twice on going in, but heck, I can't go anywhere.

I slowly opened the door and there, right there in the living room is a furious man looking at the television in front of him as if he is waiting for someone.

He looked in my way and grinned widely when he saw me.

"There you are, what time is it?" He asked looking at me up and down.

"You know, your mother isn't here, that means I can do what ever I want with that body of yours." He said.

"No please, Sir please no." I beg as I kneeled.

He just laughed at me.

"Oh oh, look at that beautiful face of yours. That's why a lot of men want to court you." He said trailing his fingers on my face.

"Please..." I kept on begging him.

"That beautiful body..." He pulled me by the waist. "Perfect, I wonder how would it feel to touch that body of yours without any cloth on it." He said smirking.

"No please!" I shouted still begging when he pushed me into the couch.

He started touching my legs, He tried kissing me. While I just kept on trying to escape.

"Please sir, please no, don't do this please." I beg even more as I kicked.

"Hmm, soft." He said still trailing his hands on my legs.

I kicked him, finally.

"Arghh!" He groaned.

I ran, I tried hiding in my room until she came back. But I failed, he caught me and punched me.

He held me in the hair and started banging my head in the wall nearby. Not satisfied with what he did, he pulled me downstairs still holding me by the hair.

"YOU BITCH! HOW DARE YOU KICK ME?!" He shouted pointing a gun on my forehead.

I shut my mouth, I didn't move, I'm scared.

"Don't you dare move." He said as he started kissing my neck.

But then someone ringed the doorbell.

It's her, my mother. I was thankful yet terrified.

"What did she do now?" She asked as she get inside the house.

"She's late." He answered.

She looked at me seriously.

"Hey, we let you go to school to study not to go around have fun with those jerks of yours." She said slapping me.

She slapped me again and again while he holds me by the hair bot caring if I'm already bleeding.

I couldn't do anything, I just cried and cried.

"Amellia, hey." Someone called.

I looked everywhere just to see no one.

"Amellia, wake up Sorellina. Ell, come on." With that I woke up.

I looked at who woke me up and saw Xandrix sitting there worry evident in his face.

"What is Sorellina? You're crying, is it a nightmare? Do you want to talk about it? You could tell me anything." He said.

I didn't say anything, I just hugged him tight afraid that if I didn't I would lose him.

"Hush now Sorellina, I'm here. It was just a dream, no one will hurt you." He said hugging me back.

He just kept me in his arms as long as long as I'm crying. But once I stopped He made me look at him.

"Are you okay now?" He asked.

I just nodded my head and hugged him again burying my face in his chest.

He sighed then stood up.

"Let's go down and have some breakfast." He said.

I nodded my head agreeing on eating breakfast.

When we reached the dining area a bunch of good morning's were heard.

"Our sweet little Bambina is being Clingy with the grumpiest brother." Ao said laughing.

"Shut up asshole." Xan said.

"Language." I heard Dad restraint him.

"What happened?" Gio asked.

Xan looked at me asking if it's okay to tell them, I nodded my head.

"She had a nightmare." Xan said.

"A nightmare? What is it about?" Alec asked worried when he saw my red face.

My face always turns red after crying so much.

"M-My old home." I said.

"Is it about them?" Alec asked.

I nodded.

His jaw clenched and I could see his knuckles turning white as he holds the fork too tight.

"I-I'm fine! I promise, I mean, you won't let them near me again, right?" I said trying to calm Alec and the others.

We talked about the Mafia and Yakuza, and I understand why they do this, as long as they won't hurt me and Innocent people I'm fine.

"Of course, Bambina."

"Of course, Imōto"

Those words was enough to make me feel safe, I mean, I already feel safe being under their care. I feel like a princess!

"What does my sweet little Sorellina want to eat for breakfast?" Enzo asked.

"Waffles please." I answered.

"Coming right up!" He said running his way to the kitchen.

Xan then put me down in one chair and sat beside me.

"About last night, Figlia. I know you're shocked, but–" Dad started but I cut him off.

"But that's the truth. I know Dad, I'm kinda shocked, yes. But I won't deny that this is kind of interesting for me. And I know you won't hurt me, as long as you don't plan on killing me, I'm fine. And I don't have anyone but you as family now Dad. I don't have time being angry at any of after being taken away from my family for 14 years. I would want to enjoy this time together with all of us, and make happy memories." I said smiling.

Dad smiled at me.

"You don't look like your Mother but, you do talk and think like her." Dad said.

Enzo then came with my waffles and chocolate syrup, yes, I've been eating like a regular human being should. I'm still not used to it but at least I'm making progress, I mean I start eating at least half or less of the food serve for me, Enzo would sometimes just give me what I can eat to not waste any food.

We're now eating peacefully while chatting about random stuff, when the question that's been running in my mind popped in again.

"Dad." I called out.

Dad looked up from his food and looked at me.

"Sì, Mia cara Figlia?" He asked in Italian.

"Dad, sometimes I ask if myself. Is my father making fun of me not knowing Italian or he just doesn't really get it that I can't Understand Italian?" I said sarcastically.

Some laughed, some looked shocked, some just stared at me mouth opened.

"Sorry Mia Figlia. Yes? What do you need my Daughter?" Dad asked chuckling.

"Is it possible for me to go to school again?" I asked.

He looked at me surprised.

"Yes of course Lia, I was just waiting for you to come up to me and say that your comfortable going to school again." He said.

I smiled. He knows huh?

Well, would it be possible that a Former Mafia Don don't know anything? Even having a lot of suitor on my school, I still do get a lot more bullies, mostly from girls telling me I'm weird because of my eyes, and that I'm too pale to even be a human, that I don't even look good. It even got physical.

"Your going in the same school as the twins, Handrix and Hendriz." Dad said.

I smiled and nodded my head.

Hendriz told me something about their school when I asked one time. It's a big school own by our family, it's a school for Highschools and Colleges. The only separation is the buildings, other half of the school have a Red and Black colored building, the highschool's building. The other one is Gold and Black building, the College's building. It's one big building, which is the main office. In the middle of it is where the field, cafeteria, and other stuff are.

Xen showed me some picture of it, and hell does it look beautiful!

Dad told me that he fixed everything, just need to wait until Monday and I'm going to be ready for school!

We're going shopping tomorrow. It's Saturday tomorrow so lets goooo.
