do if I did.

　　He sat back and took me in as he kept his hands on my legs. It was like he was trying to read me and I hated it.

　　"Stay with me."

　　"No." I was putting my foot down on this one.

　　"I don't feel comfortable with that."

　　"You don't feel comfortable with me? Your husband!" He hissed grabbing onto my waist making me think fast.

　　"Please Colton...we aren't married yet I don't think it would be a good idea." He seemed to calm down a little from that.

　　"How about this. Tomorrow night you stay with me? By then you'll be one step closer to mine." 

　　Tomorrow night...what wa- 

　　I covered my mouth as I remembered we were to be engaged tomorrow and there was nothing I could do about it. That made the tears fall more.

　　"You need you rest for tomorrow. Why don't I take you home then." He sat me up and got up carrying me in his arms. I was so weak that I couldn't even fight him off right now. 

　　He grabbed his keys and walked out a back door down a set of stairs.

　　We went till he clicked his keys and a very nice looking car went off.

　　The car started with a roar and we were off going through the night. 

　　As soon as the car came to a stop outside my house I went to open the door but he grabbed me holding me back.

　　"Don't disrespect me and don't make a fool out of me or there will be consequences. So help me god Ruby if you go to another man tomorrow night that isn't your blood I'll personally snap their necks. Am I clear?" I tried to pull my arm away from him because I didn't like the way he was being with me.

　　Colton put me in the passengers seat and even helped put my seat belt on before going around to get in himself. 

　　"Tomorrow night act like you love me." I didn't want to look to him but he forced me to by pulling my chin.

　　"Yes!" I hissed and he dropped my arm and I ran. I ran so far from him as fast as possible. 

　　Once I got through the doors Kegan was rushing to me.

　　"That son of a bitch didn't hurt you did he?"

　　"No he didn't. Are you ok? Is Eric and Ash fine?"

　　"Jesus Ruby stop worrying about others! For once let someone worry about you."

　　I pushed past him and he followed knowing he pissed me off.

　　"Ru-"

　　"There was a fucking gun to you tonight Kegan. I know that's normal to you and all because your taking over for dad but." I turned around before going into the kitchen to look at him.

　　"When I saw him put that gun to you and my friends I lost it." 

　　"And how do you think I felt seeing my baby sister being held to a monster?" I smiled a sad smile and patted his face a little before I walked into the kitchen. I grabbed a water and some medicine because my head was already staring to hurt me.

　　"Don't worry big brother. I'm only business remember." I shrugged walking past him to get to the stairs. 

　　Once in my right I felt my body wanting to collapse in on me. I got myself out of the dress and pulled on a big baggy t-shirt that I had gotten from Eric once when I slept over his house. It still smelt like him to.

　　I grabbed my phone and texted him and Ash to make sure they got home safely and that everything was ok with them. I didn't wait for a response before I was out like a light. 

　　I sat here looking at myself in my vanity mirror. My makeup was all done and fresh just like my hair. I should look happy and be smiling because I'm going to be getting engaged. Every part of me wanted to scream. 

　　How was I going to to this? My mom was so good with handling being the wife to a mafia man. I don't think I could handle it like her. Hell before I came back I was liking not having to worry about being killed. 

　　No one knew where I was or ever cared. I'm not a threat to anyone but I could be used as a way to hurt my dad. Which is why he made sure I was protected even when not at school. 

　　"Look at my little girl." My mother was behind me with a bright smile on her face.
