Brandy's POV
I was confused. Denim just forced into a slim fitted dress and dragged me along to a dinner. It was fancy. Something that my parents would have some of their business meetings. Those who walked wore gorgeous ballroom dresses, or wore expensive looking suits.
Christopher stayed with me as we got to the table. Julian disappeared after we got out of the limo. Alexander greeted me with a small handshake and the lady beside gave me hug. She had dark hair and piercing smile.
I learned that she's Christopher mother. As well as Denim and Julian's. She was kind and a sense of humor.
"Come let's sit. I'm starving." Christopher says guiding me towards the table. I sat between Denim and Christopher. None of the said a word. They just glared across the table as another family walked in. A tall man with almost gray hair. A blonde woman, who you can clearly tell had work done. Then a young girl, she didn't look much older than me. Lastly, a tall, muscular guy with blonde hair and bright green eyes. He flashed me a look and then smiled a little as he sat down.
"Alexander! Long time no see." The guy says.
"Aatto. Nice to see you again." Alexander says shaking his hand. "Let me introduce you to my family."
"Of course!"
"You know my wife, Nancy and my three boys, Julian, Denim, and Christopher." He goes on to speak. "And of course, Brandy. We had all boys, so Nancy decided to adopt a girl."
I froze. Am I supposed to pretend to be apart of their family. They all stared at me. "Hi." I said softly.
Christopher chuckled lightly under his breath. "Welcome to the family, baby Sister." He says emphasizing on Sister.
Dinner was okay. I was actually quite bored and wanted to leave. Every so often, Denim would inch his hand up higher up my thigh. I eventually crossed my legs keeping him from getting any closer.
I looked over at Denim who glared over at me. He leaned over and whispered in my ear. "You are playing with fire, young lady."
I removed Denim's hand. "Please. Denim stop it. Not here." I begged quietly.
"I'll remember that you said that." He smirked.
"Denim! Have you met my daughter, Cleonie." Aatto says. "For has long as I could remember, she's always had a small crush on you."
He laughed. "Cleonie, still good looking as always."
"Always have been." She teased.
Cleonie seemed nice. She had a sense of humor that made everyone laugh. I started to enjoy things. Of course, the down side came when dessert came about. Denim became furious more than I've seen in a long time.
"As of today, Denim will soon be engaged to my daughter, Cleonie." Aatto blurts out in excitement.
Denim shot up from his seat pounding his fists on the table. "Father!" Denim shouts.
My heart raced. Denim is getting married? A part of me was scared. I glanced over at Cleonie who just sat there smiling. She stood up and walked over to Denim. She gripped onto his upper and spoke softly. "Denim. Calm down. Aren't you excited?" She exclaims.
"Get away from me, Cleonie." Denim growled.
"Denim be nice to your future wife." Alexander says sternly getting up. He simply crosses his arms glaring across the table. "I will not allow you to make a mockery of this family!"
"I Am Not A Child That You Get Boss Around!" He yelled even more.
I kept my head down listening to everyone argue. Eventually, I just had to leave. I got up when no one was paying attention. I looked back for a minute, but no one saw me. I waited around in the hall for a few minutes, but right before I was about to head back in my phone rang. I picked it up. It was Aaron.
"Hello?"
Denim's POV
Eventually, Alexander, Aatto and I sat done in a private room. No one said a word for the first few minutes.
"Denim" Aatto says. "Think how good business will be. Millions could come your way. Expansion on territory will be a lot bigger for you. Not to mention all the extra alliances you will get from the Russian's maybe even the Italian's."
"Son...sign the agreement." Alexander says sliding a piece of paper across the coffee table.
I crossed my arms. "Aatto, I've always admired your determination, but I will not marry Cleonie."
He pauses. "You are the only one against this." He explains to me. "Think about what you are saying no to."
"I am and I will stick by my word....I always have." I said standing up fixing my tie. "I am not marrying your self-centered, whore daughter."
I left the room in search of Brandy. I was frustrated and angry. I made my way down to the restaurant. I barely got a foot through the door before Cleonie ran over to me. "Denim. My handsome Denim. Where did you and my father go? Did you guys talk about the living arrangements?"
I looked Cleonie up and down. She has a fantastic body, any guy would be an idiot to turn her down, but she's not my Brandy. "Listen Cleonie, I am not marrying you. I'm not interested in you."
She frowned. "But Daddy promised. He said that you will do anything for me."
"Well your 'Daddy' is wrong. Nothing will ever go on between us. Mark my words." I told her.
"Denim." A familiar voice calls out. Blue stood by the bar, with two glasses of alcohol. I walked over to him.
I've been so happy to you and you couldn't even bother to get a bigger glass." I said rolling my eyes.
"You gotta say sober. Your fiancee will not be happy about going home with you piss drunk." Blue says.
"Please shut up the hell up before I rip your tongue out." I sighed slamming the glass down.
"Watch out. The royal highness is coming over." He says softly.
Cleonie walked over to us and stood behind Blue. "Can you get out of my way? You are blocking my view of my future husband."
I completely ignored her. She was obnoxious and I was growing tired of her very quickly. I looked across the room as Brandy stood by herself in the corner fixated on her phone. She didn't even realize how everyone was staring at her. She is the most beautiful girl in the whole room. She stood out and made Cleonie look terrible.
"Why are you staring at her? She's your sister. That's weird." Cleonie snaps stepping in front of me.
I sighed. "Don't you have to put on some more makeup or something?" I said moving her out of my view line of Brandy.
"I mean I have a better idea." She winks. "We can be quick." Cleonie whispers holding onto my hand. "I'm not even wearing any underwear."
I spun Cleonie around holding her by her wrists against the bar. "A strong man. I like that." She says .
"I am not interested in having sex with you. In fact I am disgusted by the thought." I told her. I pushed her away and stormed off towards Brandy. I grabbed onto her arm and dragged her out of the restaurant and brought her outside.
"Denim!" She shrieks.
I can't control myself around her. I pinned her wrists against the wall. I stared down at her small frame. I licked my bottom lips. I smashed my lips onto hers. I cupped her face as I brought up her leg to rest on the side of my waist. Brandy's hands perfectly placed themselves on his chest in attempt to push me back. I held her harder pressing her body against mine as I held her up against the wall.
"...De-nim." She lightly moaned out as I kissed her neck. I wanted her. I needed her. "No, Denim stop!" She exclaims pushing me back. Brandy fixes her dress and tries to catch her breath.
She stared angrily at me. "I've already told you that I will never have sex with you or anything remotely close."
I laughed placing my hand on her back drawing her closer to me. "You are My Girlfriend. So as My Girlfriend, I will do whatever I want. Even if that means fucking you so hard, Princess. We could even make our porn video one day." I teased kissing the top of her head.
"Stay away from me!" Brandy shouts. She pulled herself and ran back inside.
I looked up for a second about to head inside. Aatto's oldest son, Declan, simply stared at me with a cigarette in his hand. He laughed to himself and brushed past me. Opening the door back into the building, he stopped and looked back at me. "You are a pathetic human being, Mr.Lockwood. Can't even treat girl properly. Maybe you should marry my sister. I could teach you a few things." He says.
I lost it. I lunged in and grabbed Declan by the collar of his shirt. "Declan I Promise...If You Don't Stay Out Of My Way....I Will Kill Your Entire Family And Save You For Last!" I yelled slamming against the dollar.
"Tell Miss.Diamond to think about my proposal." He says pushing me off him.
Out of rage, I turned around and punched a hole in the glass door, leaving a huge pile of shattered glass.
If anyone went near my Princess, I'd kill them without thinking.
