The Broken Angel & Her Overprotective Brothers - Chapter 53

“Is she alright now?”

Leo was the first one who asked the question out loud the moment Simon exited Emily’s room.

Since he shouted the question, he received multiple glares from his brothers which made him cringe.

However, he immediately returned his focus to Simon as he waited for his older brother to answer his question.

A soft sigh slipped through the only black-haired Alessandro Young Master as he settled down on the sofa beside Mark.

The living room was filled with silence for the next several minutes as the others waited for Simon to answer the question that was drilling holes in each one of them.

“She doesn’t want to be left alone and neither does she want to sleep. Sam is with her.” Simon finally replied.

His words only ended up increasing the worry of the brothers for their baby sister.

“It’s already past seven o’clock and the chef is on vacation. Mark, Crist, and Leo, all three of you come and help me in preparing the dinner. Sorellina must be feeling hungry.” Daniel ordered as he stood up from his seat.

The protests that were about to ring throughout the living room instantly died the moment Daniel mentioned Emily.

Even Leo eagerly moved towards the kitchen in order to help Daniel in preparing the dinner for his little sister.

And just like that, the heaviness that had taken over the entire Alessandro Mansion slowly started slipping away.

Domenic and Simon disappeared inside the office that was located on the third and almost forbidden floor of the mansion.

“Are you alright?” Shane asked as he looked at his best friend with worry.

He still remembered the moment when he watched the sharp dagger disappearing through the cotton blouse that Emily was wearing and then the sudden burst of redness that painted the blouse.

He almost thought that Rylan was going to kill her but miraculously, the very next second he pulled out the dagger and healed the wound.

But in the meanwhile, two things went wrong. The first bad thing was that due to the pain and panic, Emily lost her consciousness, and the second bad thing that happened was that the bodyguards of the Alessandro Family were already moving towards them.

This only left them one option and that was to disappear from that place as soon as possible so that the bodyguards could not catch them.

He also remembered the unwillingness that he saw on Rylan’s face they were running away, leaving an unconscious girl behind.

Currently, both of them were sitting in the living room of the small wooden cabin that was built near the stream that flowed through the forest where the Sullivan Mansion was located.

They were the only occupants of the cabin and the silence that was present not only in the cabin but also in their surroundings, made Shane even more worried.

It was like every single creature living around the cabin was aware of the bad mood of the Second Young Master and they were smartly escaping from his wrath.

“I’m alright. I want to stay here for a few more hours. Leave me alone.” Rylan replied as he settled down in his seat and let his body relax a little.

Even then the tension was clearly visible in his tight muscles and even though Shane wanted to talk to him about all that happened at the Star Xander Mall, he could not find the courage to do so.

In the end, he chose to be smart, and after giving a quick nod to his friend, he stood up from the sofa and left the room.

As Rylan sat there in silence he slowly rolled up the sleeve of his right hand.

A portion of his right wrist was looking red and a little blue while a kind of newly carved tattoo was visible on that irritated skin.

It was a unique design or probably a symbol with a circle inside a triangle that had wings on it and in the very center of the circle was the letter E.

His breathing and heartbeat increased as the realization dawned on him. The meaning behind the newly formed mark on his wrist registered in his mind.

It was like destiny and fate were playing a game with him. The one person who was supposed to be his new prey and the person who could become the solution to many of their problems had now become the person whom he could no longer stand to hurt.

The mere thought of hurting her sent chills and immense pain throughout his body.

Hurting her was the last thing that he wanted to do. Rather, the need to keep her safe and protected all the time started taking a deep root inside him.

The mark on his wrist was the proof that he was now bound to another person by their fates and just like his mark, that other person too would have received a similar mark.

These marks were the symbol of a new beginning for both of them. A beginning that would bring many happy and beautiful moments.

However, no matter how pure and powerful this mark and its future was, the darkness was already ready to destroy everything.

As Emily stared at the weird tattoo that was visible on the front part of her left shoulder, she once again pinched herself to make sure that she was no longer dreaming.

It was not like she was encountering such unbelieving situations for the first time in her life.

In her short life of seventeen years, she had already witnessed a lot of things that could not be considered possible or normal by society and the entire world.

But still, seeing the impossible things happening to her for the past few days was making her question herself and her sanity.

First, her bruise healed miraculously in just a short period. Second, even though she was pretty sure that she felt the dagger piercing her belly, there was no wound or any blood visible on her belly. The only thing that made her believe in herself was the cut in her blouse that indicated that something sharp had cut through it.

And right now, she was starting at the third miracle – the tattoo.
