Ferocious Sister

"So did you enjoy the show tonight?" Mark asked Alex as he drove us to Houston, Texas. We decided to head straight there once the show was over since Mark didn't want to stay in a hotel. I agreed, not really wanting to remain in the same state as my brother.

Alex nodded as he yawned, "I sure did. I just wish I didn't have to see the monster from my dreams."

I glanced at Mark for a moment and then and turned around in my seat so I could face Alex.

"Are you talking about Maven?" I asked.

"Yes." He said. "Sissy…I'm scared of him."

I sighed, "Is it because of your nightmares?"

He nodded slowly and I glanced at Mark who cleared his throat. "Alex you know I won't let anything happen to you or your sister right?"

"I know, but seeing him makes me remember the bad things he did and said to me."

I blinked several times, "What things honey?"

He yawned and stretched out his arms. "I can't tell you Leah."

"Why not? Don't you trust me?" I asked.

"I do…but he told me not to say anything."

Mark tensed up in his seat, "Who told you that? Maven?"

"Yes."

I sighed as anger started growing within my heart. "Don't worry about him Alex. He won't hurt you and we won't let him ok?"

"Ok sissy." He said before dozing off.

I shook my head and turned back around, staring out the window. I was beyond pissed with Maven at this point and couldn't wait to speak to him again. Mark seemed angry too. He reached over to me and took my hand into his own, squeezing it gently. I looked at him and smiled softly just before he lifted my hand and kissed it. Wow…way to turn me on.

We pulled up to his house around 3am. He gladly carried Alex into the house, not worrying about the bags in the trunk.

"I'll get them in the morning." He said as I followed him up onto the porch. I didn't even realize how big his house was until we got inside.

"Wow…you didn't tell me you lived in a castle." I said sarcastically as I looked at the large house.

He laughed, "Very funny…I'll give you a tour later if you want."

I smiled, "Sure…but I was thinking we should take a tour to that bedroom of yours."

"Oh man, what have I created?" he asked as we climbed the steps.

I giggled and followed him up to a room that was similar to the one Alex had back in Florida, only this one was arranged differently. I watched from the door as Mark gently placed my sleeping brother in the bed. He took off his shoes without waking him and was even nice enough to put pajamas on him. I got lost watching him be so fatherly. It was almost like he was in a more calm state of mind.

When he got Alex all tucked in, he came towards me and gently kissed me on the lips.

"He's a heavy sleeper." He said.

I nodded, "yes he is…"

He moved some of my hair from my face and looked at me suspiciously. "Are you ok?"

"Yeah, I just…well...watching you take care of him like that kind of made me see in you a different way." I said.

He smiled, "You mean like, seeing me as the father of your first child?"

I blushed and nodded slightly. "Yeah. I think you would make a great father."

He glanced back at Alex before gently shutting his door. "Well, I know you'll make a great mother. Alex is a swell kid and anyone would be glad to have him as their own."

I sighed, "I know…I just hate that Maven screwed with his mind like that. If that bastard threatens him again there will be some freaking problems."

"Shh…it's alright." He said as he pulled me in for a hug. "I won't let anything happen to you or Alex. I promise."

I smiled into his chest, "Thanks Taker."

"No problem Le Le." He said with a smirk.

I giggled and kissed him on the lips. He chuckled and took my hands, "Come on..what do you say we heat things up a bit?"

"Right now?" I asked.

He stopped walking and placed my hand on his hard erection. "Yes right now."

I laughed and licked my lips before following him into the bedroom. We ended up making love for at least two hours before falling asleep. Early that next morning, my eyes popped open the sound of Alex screaming for me.

I hopped out of bed, tossed on a long shirt from Mark's drawer and then dashed to his room. When I got there he was kicking and screaming with fresh tears falling from his eyes.

"No big brother! Don't hurt her! Please! Sissy!"

I instantly went to his side and started shaking him gently until he opened his eyes. He wrapped his arms around my neck and cried into my chest. I rubbed his head and cried too feeling terrible that he was once again having nightmares. As I rocked him in my arms, Mark came around the corner.

I glanced up at him before waving him over to me. He came into the room and sat down next to me, rubbing Alex's back.

My poor brother didn't speak for nearly that entire day. I was so infuriated by his pain, that I got on the phone and called Maven.

"What hell do you want Leah?" he said when he answered the phone.

I gritted my teeth, "You listen to me….I don't know what the hell you put in Alex's mind about our parent's death…but I'm warning you. If you threaten this little boy in any way shape or form again…I will make sure you pay!"

He laughed, "oh please Leah. Do you really think you can overpower me? Our parents sure thought they did and now look at me. I'm the greatest entertainer alive!"

"Maven…I don't care if you're the richest man alive. Try me and watch what happens…bitch!" with that I slammed the phone down on the receiver and then turned to leave the room. No one on this planet was going to hurt my little brother…and that included Maven.
