BRANDON SALVATORE
"You okay?" I hear him ask and open my eyes, cleaning my tears. I don't cry because it hurt, I cry because Annie wasn't in her room, I cry because I want to kill him, and I would. I Inhale deeply and look up.
"I'm fine."
"Good, cause we have someone to meet," he say and take my hand, pulling me up. "You need a bath? You looked like you just had one."
I nod, I needed another. "I'll take another."
"I'm waiting for you here, don't act funny."
I nod and make to walk towards Annie's bathroom but I can't, it hurts alot. I glare back at him, his eyes are still on my face, body, the hole he just fucked. I was completely open, vulnerable, this wasn't me. I was Brandon Salvatore and no one messes with me, not even some Killian Mendoza.
"Need help?" He ask, he must have noticed me struggling.
"I'm fine," I say and hasten my step towards the bathroom. I shut the door close and let the water cascade down my body. This didn't happen, I wasn't just fucked by Killian Mendoza. I Inhale deeply when I hear a knock.
"Come out!" He orders.
I ignore him, I already locked the door, he won't be able to get in. The knocks came two more times and then silence. I continue my wash, he was an asshole to think I'd just open the door.
Suddenly, the door beaks open and Killian walks in. "What the-" my words are barely out when he pushes me against the wall, pinning me to it while the shower rains down on us. "When I say open, you fucking open!"
I try to control my racing heart, I wasn't supposed to be intimidated by my fellow man but what was at stake, everything. "I'll be out in a bit," I say calmly.
"The time for that has passed," he move backwards, he was equally naked. "Now wash, I'll watch you, and anywhere which is so sore for you to wash, I'll help you do it."
I gulp and I don't know why I do it. "I'm done washing."
"Are you sure? I'm thinking you need my help."
"I said I'm done!" I snap and his smile fades away. "Sorry," I whisper. Not apologizing because I want to, but because I need to make it out of here alive.
"Wash, let me watch you."
I nod, this was the height of this, an embarrassing moment of my life, this wasn't me but I couldn't fight, I needed to see Annie again.
I wash my body quietly and of course he watched, I hate him but I didn't want to fight him now, I need to live, to ensure Annie was safe.
After washing, I walked out and he follows. We both get dressed and he takes my hand leading me out. As I step out of the house, I see our servants, guards on the ground, father too and Annie but Annie wasn't kneeling, Alessandro was holding her and her eyes were red, more like she had been crying her eyes out.
"From my observation, I know I'm holding Anita Salvatore, but she's my bait. Where is Brandon Salvatore, the murderer of my sister," Alessandro says.
My world goes dark, did he just call me a murderer. That was I lie, I didn't kill Amaya, why would I? I look around, where was Kingpin, bastard was gone, what was I going to do? How would I get my family out of this mess.
"I'll count to three for Brandon to show up, else I'll kill his sister. Three, two.."
I couldn't watch it, I couldn't stand it, I made to stand but a hand press my shoulder, sending me back down on my kneel. I look up to find Killian. "I didn't let you live just for my cousin to kill you Brandon."
What? He knew I was Brandon. This was insane, what else did he know.
"You cannot show yourself now, if you do, Alessandro will surely kill you, and I don't want you dead now, it's too soon. I've fantasized alot to do with you in my head, I don't want them to just be memories."
The sound of gunshots snaps me out of my daze and I look to find my father on the ground, in his pool of blood, Alessandro killed him.
