"RUBY!"
Mother slammed down on my thighs.
I jumped up in alert, practically startled.
"Owwww." I whined as I itched my thigh.
"I have been calling you for over five times now. Where is your mind?" Mother snapped at me disapprovingly.
I itched the back of my neck.
How did she expect me to tell her that us owing father's debt was better trouble than I had now put us in.
And more so, Aiden, as I had gotten around to knowing what his name was, had not uttered a single word.
He hadn't even sent the guards to arrest me yet.
It was currently the early hours in the morning.
The sun was out and the birds were singing so beautiful.
I would sit and watch them, but not today.
Definitely not today.
I had caused chaos for my entire family and the arrogant bastard wasn't tormenting by not letting me know his next move.
"I'm sorry. I was just thinking about dad.." I lied.
She sighed and looked at me.
We were in our own little bedroom.
