She Devil | ✔︎

Twenty.

For months I'd been crying myself to sleep every night.

I've been avoiding everyone. especially Kenji, and I've been getting very little sleep.

Today, however, I've had enough. I can't spend the rest of my life languishing and slopping around because I discovered my parents aren't my biological parents.

I'm capable of more than this. I've been through a lot worse, and I always get back up. Never have and never will I stay down.

I take a cold shower wash my hair and get dressed, I walk downstairs to eat breakfast in the dining room I hear loud waves of laughter and sounds.

There are usually not many people here.

When I walk into the dining area, I'm greeted by a lot of people with suspicious smiles on their faces. "Bosswomen! You've finally gotten yourself out of that shithole."Massimo exclaims giving me a tight hug.

"Can you tell me who these people are?" I whisper to him. He chuckles and pulls away "Athena. This is our family. "This is Athena, our Bosswoman, "He gives me a formal introduction.

"Hi?" I say more of a question than a statement, Massimo stifles a laugh and instructs me to sit down and eat so that everyone may introduce themselves.

"Hello, my name is Isabella, and I'm Kenji's older sister. However, you can call me Bella." She gave me a gentle grin. "My name is Athena." I smiled at her with my lips pursed.

"My name is Lorenzo," he says, "but you already knew that." He gives me a smirk. Of course, how could I have forgotten? He snitched after I danced with him.

"Sup, my name is Caterina, and this is my sister Valentina. We can be called Rina and Tina." She winks at Valentina, who is unbothered on her phone.

"Hey, my name is Gaia, and I already know we're going to be great friends," she says, pulling me into a tight hug.

This family and their hugs.

"All right, Gaia, that's it. Let the girl breathe." Kenji speaks As he walks into the dining area with a blonde Barbie attached to his hands. Isabella rolls her eyes when Barbie takes a seat next to her.

"This is Kenji's mother, Eloisa." Massimo introduces her, but before she finishes her meal, she shoots me a dirty look. Bitch.

"And finally, Gerard, that's his father." Massimo seems doubtful this time, and Gerard nods with a blank face before standing up and exiting the room.

He doesn't like me.

"Who is this new girl, Sugar poo?" Barbie bats her eyes and asks Kenji, who looks up at me and says, "She's no one."

I think the fuck not, jerk.

I start eating my food Before the Barbie starts talking again, "Hey you, he said you're nobody, did you understand that? Leave." She is demanding.

"What are you looking at?" she snarls. I continue to stare at her as the rest of the table falls silent due to the tension. "A mistake your mother made,"Massimo starts cheering as I retort.

"You should lose weight because you're overweight. An obese girl is the last thing any man wants." She starts again.

Ignore.

"I'm sure you expose your legs for every guy you come across." She chuckles but no one laughs. "Cherie, that's enough, Leave!" Kenji slams his fist down on the table.

"Call me when you want to fuck," she says as she stands up. and walks around me, pausing to murmur something in my ear.

She snickers before yanking my hair as I clench my hands in an attempt to calm down.

I've had enough.

Watching as the woman takes her pistol from her holster to bear down on me. Catching her mid-way through the motion with my left hand, bringing a heavy fist to meet her face with my right.

The pistol goes off into the wall. I hit her again, and another round fire into the glass. Taking hold of her arm with both hands, unpinning the pistol hand. I break it at her forearm.

She howls in pain letting the pistol drop from her grip. I am done being shot you stupid cunt, I glare at her. Twisting around with her arm still in my iron grip.

I grapple her over my shoulder, feeling hers dislocate as I propel her over mine. She screams in more pain as she travels to the bloodied floor below.

"You psycho bitch!" She sobs loudly. "I've been called worse," I grin. "Like what?" Caterina asks from the table, I glance over at Kenji, who shakes his head no. Her eyes widen as I says, "ea diavolul."
