(Valkov Manner)
Tala stormed up the front steps, muttering about some party and a certain someone. He thrust the door open and stomped in, chucking his bag at the butler that was halfway through a bow.
Tala was nearly up the stairs, when his Mum appeared at the top. A nasty black and blue bruise across her angelic cheek, one that looked like it was just recent.
"Mother."
Tala quickly came up to her. Her placed a hand lightly on her cheek but she flinched away.
"Don't worry I'm fine. But your Father wants to see you."
Tala's face darkened and a murderous look crossed his face.
"Tala, don't! Don't confront him, it will just make him more mad and I don't want him harming you."
"He already has! But he hurts me more, by making me see you like this."
"Tala!"
She called after him as he stormed down the corridor towards his father's study.
Tala flung the doors' open and stormed in. His father who was sitting behind his desk looked up, a dark frown settling on his face.
"How dare you!"
Tala shouted, slamming his fists on the tabletop.
"HOW DARE YOU!"
His father shouted back, but his voice held more depth and sternness.
"Why did you hit Mother!"
"Because that wretch can't hold her tongue."
"You can't call her that!"
Tala received a hard backhand across the face.
"I can see her bastard of a child can't hold his either."
Tala cupped his cheek and glared up at him. Which resulted in a painful wack in the stomach, with his Father's cane.
"Don't give me that look boy!"
His Father growled, returning to sit in his black throne like chair.
Tala pulled himself up off the floor and glared at his Father.
"Now I asked to see you, as I heard some disturbing news."
"What!"
"That you're seeing this slut Ms. Kale, I thought after the day that she came around, that you would leave her."
"I can see who I want!"
Tala snapped, not that he did want to she Riley, just the fact that his Father was trying to control his life.
His Father quickly stood up and strode over to Tala. He glared down at his son.
"You shall see who I wish for you to see."
His voice growled venomously.
"I shall do no such thing!"
Tala braced himself, as a cane hit him hard across the head. He fell to the floor, hitting a chair on his way.
"YOU SHALL HOLD YOUR TONGUE BOY!"
The abuse continued painful attack after another. Tala looked up just as foot connected with his head. Then everything went black.
(Riley's House)
Riley gripped the punching bag as she pulled herself up. She felt weak and drained of energy, her body felt strange, but for some reason up lifted.
Her feet padded across the cold concrete as she walked over to her wardrobe.
Wrenching the door open and pulling out her grey, baggy, ripped sleeved, night top and black tracksuit pants, before slowly walking up her stairs to the bathroom.
She stepped over the drunk, who looked liked he was on his way to bed but never got there. Riley slowly opened the bathroom door and stepped in, instantly coming into view of a tear stained face.
Riley looked at her face; there were wet looking areas over her black tattoo markings. Her eyes were red and puffy.
"Yuck."
Riley growled, turning away from the mirror and closed the door.
She took off her clothes and turned the water on, instantly stepping in. The cold water pelted down on her body 'causing goose bumps to appear. But quickly the water turned hot, steam slowly started to rise.
Her skin began to turn pink as she stook there, looking off into space. The water continued to get hotter until it broke her out of thought.
"Shit."
Riley swore, as she adjusted the water to the right temperature.
A heavy sigh escaped past her lips as she leant her forehead onto the cold white tiles. The water pattering on the floor as she just stood there.
Later
Riley stepped out of the bathroom, dressed in her grey top and tracksuit. Her black hair lay in wet clumps down her back, a towel dividing it from her top.
She slowly walked back down her stairs to her bedroom, her eyes quickly adjusting to the darkness.
Riley walked over to her bag and pulled out a familiar leather book, she walked over to her bed and sat down.
Opening the book to the page, her eyes running over its contents, soaking in the information. She laid back and tried to believe.
(Club Xcape)
Tyomi giggled, as some stranger pulled Ryan out onto the dance stage. A look of help crossed his face as the girl pushed up against him.
"I see that he's got an admirer."
Ashley said, racking a hand causally through his jet-black hair.
"Lucky bugger!"
Tyler grumbled, sliding onto the bar stool next to Ashley.
Turning his back to Tyomi who was behind the table top
"Least she is going to be one more regular."
Tyomi joked.
"Does that mean I can flirt with the girls."
Tyler joked.
Tyomi raised an eyebrow.
"She's flirting with him, not the other way round. So don't think about it…………or that either."
Tyomi stated reading Tyler's facial features.
Ashley chuckled.
"You are so obvious."
Tyler huffed and crossed his arms.
Faith laughed as she walked up to the guys. The looks on all their faces were priceless.
"What did I miss?"
She asked, flicking her raspberry-coloured hair over one shoulder.
"Nothing much, the guys are just jealous."
Faith raised an eyebrow in question.
"Of what."
"Ryan."
Tyler muttered.
"Oh please."
A new, puffed out sounding voice came in.
"That girl is wearing me out, can I take a break."
Ryan breathed, looking over at Tyomi. Tyomi smiled and nodded her head.
"You can hide behind the counter."
She laughed.
Ryan's face brightened up and he jumped over the counter.
Tyomi looked up to see Robert walking over.
"Come on now back to work. Chop, chop."
Tyomi smiled clapping her hands. Everyone groaned but slowly got a move on, Tyler sent Tyomi a smirk before walking off.
"Hey, what's up?"
"Nothing much."
Tyomi smiled.
Robert leant forward and brought his lips to hers for a short kiss.
"Busy."
"Nah it's slow."
"Good, lets blow this joint."
"You can't do that."
"I'm the boss, so I can. Get Faith to take over."
Tyomi blushed and nodded.
"Faith, hey, you're in charge, call if anything's wrong."
Faith nodded and a cheeky smile appeared on her face.
"Have fun."
Tyomi's face became bright red as she nodded in reply. Robert wrapped an arm around her waist as they walked out the doors.
"Look after the joint Conner."
Robert shouted as he slid into the car after closing the door for Tyomi.
Conner smiled and waved, before letting more people in.
(Valkov Manner)
The bright light stung as Tala rolled over. His ribs hurt like hell, not counting some other body parts.
He groaned as the pain started to come to him. He slowly opened his eyes to see his Mother's worried looking face, staring down at him.
He noticed that he was now lying in his bed, the black sheets tucked around him.
"Shit."
He groaned as he lifted his heavy arm to touch his head. Instantly regretting it as more pain occurred.
"I told you not to."
His Mother whispered, dabbing her son's lip lightly with a damp cloth, to take the dried blood away.
"Yeah I know."
He winced as he slowly sat up.
"Well you got a visitor so I'll leave you. I'll have your breakfast sent up to you."
"Kk."
His Mother quickly left, the door shutting behind her, but soon after opened again.
"Hey."
Tala smirked weakly.
"Hey."
Kai replied walking over to the bed, sitting down in the chair. A whining noise from the corridor made Tala smile lightly.
"He can come in."
Kai nodded.
"Dranzer, here boy."
Suddenly a black Doberman pincher, with rusty red chest marks bounded in. Coming to a halt by his master's chair, its pointed ears high up in the air. Kai smirked and rubbed the dog on the head.
Tala winced and took a sharp breath in, as he slowly got out of bed.
"Shouldn't you rest!?!"
"This ain't that bad, you out of all people should know Kai."
A knowing look crossed Kai's face.
Kai's parents had died when he was very young, which forced him to live with his evil Grandfather. Voltaire, who was just as aggressive and abusive, he just never held back.
"So your Dad and Mum is leaving for Tokyo today."
"Yeah for Dad's 'all important' meeting. They will be gone by 12 and away for most of the holidays."
"Do you think you will be able to hold the party today."
Tala, who was now dressed in a pair of black jeans and a causal worn royal blue shirt, gave Kai a look.
"It's not till 6 tonight. That is plenty of time and no bruise is going to stop me from having fun."
Tala winced as he tried to smile.
"Maybe a fractured rib might."
"Fat change."
"You my friend are as thick as steel."
Tala glared at Kai as he walked out the door, shortly followed by Kai with Dranzer by his side.
Tala ate at the island in the kitchen as Kai leant back against a wall.
"What you going to do now?"
Tala shrugged, but instantly regretted it.
"Dunno…. Maybe go into town."
"And do what?"
"Will you stop questioning me!"
Tala growled, glancing at his friend.
"No."
Kai growled back, his tone causing Dranzer to growl to. This caused Tala and Kai to chuckle lightly.
"I'm going to take Dranzer to the park, it's been a while since he's been out and there is some people I would like him to eat."
Kai smirked darkly.
Tala nodded.
"Ok lets go."
Tala grabbed his coat and walked out the doors. Kai called Dranzer and quickly followed after, grabbing his jumper from the hanger.
(Eric's house)
A loud knock on the door caused Eric to moan and pull a pillow over his head.
"Go away."
He groaned.
"Get up you loser."
An older voice shouted back.
"Alex get lost."
The door swung open and a pissed off looking Alex walked in. His brown lightly moused hair flopped down into his pale blue/green eyes.
"Get up before I deck your sorry arse."
Eric moaned and sat up, his eyes half closed as he read the clock. He groaned again.
"It's 10.55 I'm not suppose to wake up til another 2 hours."
"Get dressed."
"Why?"
"Because, I said so, just get dressed."
Alex snapped, impatiently chucking some clothing at his younger brother.
Eric rolled off the bed and stood up, looking at his brother.
"What are you waiting for, get ready."
"I would, if you would leave."
Alex rolled his eyes and left, slamming the door shut behind him.
Eric quickly got changed and combed his hair. He fumbled with the door nob before managing to open in it.
"What is it?"
Eric muttered, seeing his brother standing in the corridor.
"Dad's here to take us shopping."
A dark look settled on Alex's face as he mentioned 'Dad'. Eric became silent and nodded.
"Right, for what now!?!."
"The party this afternoon."
Eric rolled his eyes and followed Alex out the front door.
A black Porsche was parked in the driveway. A tall man with light gold eyes and raw sienna coloured hair stood by the car.
A skeleton slim lady with prune coloured, shoulder blade length hair and teal blue coloured eyes, was hanging on the guy's arm.
"Who now!?!"
Alex muttered walking up to the car.
"Hey guys."
Their Dad smiled, hugging them both lightly.
"Yeah."
They both mumbled.
"Well I would like to introduce you to Lowri."
A bright cheerful smile erupted on her perfect face, revealing a blinding set of teeth.
"I've heard so much about you guys."
Her voiced was laced with a thick Welsh accent, which made her a little hard to understand.
"I'm sure you have."
Alex sniggered, earning him an elbow from Eric.
"Well I hear that there is a party being held tonight at some guys house."
Eric raised an eyebrow, but Alex replied.
"Yeah some guy named Tala, rich poof basically. He's invited nearly the whole yr 11 year and some yr 12's."
Eric frowned and looked at his brother. Why was it he always found out about the parties and he didn't.
"Well maybe you would like some new things for this party, so hop in."
Their Dad walked around the other side of the car and opened and closed the door for Lowri. He then walked back and folded the seat forward for the guys to get in.
"Well, where shall we go?"
"The mall."
Eric stated in a tone that said isn't-it-obvious.
"K."
Their Dad pulled out of the driveway and drove off.
(Riley's House)
Her eyes slowly opened, to be hit with the light that came in from her window.
Riley slowly sat up and looked over to the book that was sitting on her bedside draw. It's pages open to the family photos.
She could not believe or soak in the information that she actually belonged to a family like that. It was beyond her dreams, but to find out they were all murdered. It was hard, even though she didn't grow up with them, she felt she had a connection. It was breaking down her walls that she had placed up to guard her.
Riley could feel tears form in her eyes again, she growled.
Annoyed that all of a sudden she had become weak, but for some reason she couldn't place herself back into total hard mode.
Riley stumbled to her feet and walked over to her desk. The only way she knew how to release her feelings was to fight.
She wrapped her hands in the black cloth and then turned to the familiar punching bag.
She raised her fists into her trademark fighting stance and then attacked. Beating the shit out of the punching bag, causing the roof beam to creak. The bag swung forward and she swivelled elbowing it, sending a high left kick followed closely by a right.
She went on for what seemed ages, venting her feeling out. Punching the bag as tears fogged her eyes.
She screamed and punched the bag one last time, hard. The bag swung back and she grabbed it, standing there, holding onto it for support.
Riley glanced over to the clock, 3.00pm it read. She needed to get out; she needed to clear her head more.
Riley walked over and pulled out a pair of black, big, baggy pants, that had many buckles and straps around the legs. Also a black strapless mid-dift top, with a long sleaved meshy and a long spiked dog collar with back chunky boots for effect.
Riley walked up her stairs and disappeared into the bathroom, for a shower.
(PREVIEW)
Riley walked down the café strip; it was 5.00pm and there were no older teenagers in site. Which was just annoying, 'cause now young kids were running around her.
Riley pushed open the door to a well-known causal café, taking a seat in a booth near the back.
"My shift is over, so come on, you can party with me."
Who is off shift? and will they get Riley to party??? is Riley breaking??? the plot is getting deeper every chapter
Til nex time R&R
