Chapter Twenty-One

I sat cross legged playing a card game with my brother, Stryker, on my bed.

I never thought in a million years that I could possibly bond with him, considering that nobody trusted him.. but to my surprise Leo allowed him to stay in the House.

I have not been speaking to Leo much since he had my brother beaten up by Theo.. which was now well over a week ago. I knew it was for intel on whether he was trustworthy but it hurt my heart too much.

‘Your turn’. Stryker chuckled, throwing a hand in his hair, enjoying the bonding moment.

He paused and then frowned at the door, which meant he could smell someone.. Leo.

I gulped, as a light tap on the door echoed in the room.

‘Scar? I need to talk with your brother’. Leo added, sounding odd.

‘One sec’. Stryker muttered quietly, but stopped when I gave him a look of concern.
