Beauty doesn't mean Kindness p4

... Sometimes Earlier...

"You seem worried sugar?" Muriel asked, "We're missing some people for lunch...I was hoping At least Ned would sit with us." Thorn noted.

"Maybe not everyone is a fan of pasta." Lady Orange said, "Not me though!" Rapunzel said happily grabbing her fork.

"How about we go look for the others?" Muriel asked.

"I don't think that's a good idea." Garrick said, "Hmm? why?" Henrietta asked.

"Because Yuri and Mom are busy, obviously...You can't make them come to eat unless they're business free.

I can't believe my mate is someone as workaholic as my mother...." Jade answered unsurprised and kind of disappointed, "And I don't think Fau is gonna be back just yet, so my brother won't be eating Until his boyfriend does..and since Yur and Taci went after Fau, well that explains why they're not here yet.

And for Grey... Faunus did say that Grey isn't a fan of family gathering, so let's leave him alone." she added.

"Speaking of Faunus... where is Fernando?" Muriel asked.

"That's a good question...where is Freddie?" Garrick mumbled.

"He's probably off somewhere in the house, Angry because we refused to explain why his brother was in tears?" Henrietta said while glaring at Lady Orange.

"I think that Faunus is more than capable to explain what happened himself...in the end, he started it." Lady Orange replied.

Surprised and angry, "Are you serious?" Matilda asked.

"Well, Orange gurl is kinda right! You guys are being too much." Rapunzel said smiling, making Garrick roll his eyes at her.

"Why the hell would you side with her?!" Matilda almost yelled.

"Why not? I like her! and we have similarities...for example, we're both Omega women, we had kids with the same Alpha and we're unwelcomed by those kids despite having good intentions for them!" Rapunzel said While Lady Orange hid her smirk.

"You... Damn..." Before Matilda could say anything, "Don't fight, not while I'm eating." Jade spoke-up.

Seeing Garrick nod at her after that statement Jade made, Matilda swallowed her anger and held back.

"Don't worry Jadie, I won't cause problems!" Rapunzel said smiling but Jade glared at her and said, "Life has taught me so many lessons, and one of them is to be grateful for every meal you can get.

And I would love for that every meal to be one that's peaceful."

Hearing that Lady Orange nodded, and Rapunzel's smile faded, "Thanks for the food Thorn, It's really good." Jade added.

Happy, "I'm honored and you're welcome." Thorn replied, "I wish Ned would come appreciate this peaceful meal with me!" Garrick joked.

"I can make that wish come true! though you still have to pay me...I suggest you choose paying by doing tasks!" Rapunzel said making Matilda scoff at her.

"No thanks, Rapunzel." Garrick replied.

"To have a mate...sounds like a beautiful thing Garrick." Lady Orange said smiling.

"Thank god you don't have one!" Thorn said Annoyed, it was enough to wipe lady Orange's smile off her face.

To Thorn and almost everyone, This lunch was nothing short of an awkward situation, and with Few people missing from the table, the ones having lunch were just trying to find reasons to be at each others throats.

To make matters even more awkward, since the dinning table is quite big, Lady Orange was sitting between Rapunzel and Socorro on one side, while Garrick, Henrietta and Matilda sat on the other side.

Socorro tried to have an eye-contact with Matilda, but Matilda refused to meet her gaze, Ever since what happened between Lady Orange and Faunus, Matilda was giving Socorro the cold shoulder.

"I may have not acquired a mate, but as I mentioned before I was married and quite in love...though we had our separate daily lives and to be honest, I think that if I was more involved in my spouse's life, Maybe that weasel Lucas would have not wrecked my home." Lady Orange replied.

"If your marriage was really tight, Lucas wouldn't managed to wreck it so easily." Thorn replied.

"THORN!" Muriel scolded him.

"You guys, please...Can we change the subject?" Garrick asked.

Feeling the tense atmosphere, "Rickie is right...So, how is the food? I hope it is to everyone's likings." Muriel asked smiling nervously.

"It's Fuckin delicious!" Jade said as she began filling herself a second plate while Thorn smiled at her.

Laughing, "Already done with your first plate? You never change do you Jade? at the academy I have to watch over my food or else she'll eat it when I'm not looking." Garrick said earning few chuckles.

"Don't blame it on me! you left your food unwatched!" Jade said smirking.

"Back at the Police academy I had a buddy whose literal nickname is 'The Vacuum cleaner'! the guy doesn't just eat, he inhales food!

And the funny part, he was the skinniest person in the room, I was four times his size back then." Henrietta said chuckling.

"I'm gonna start calling Jade Vacuum cleaner too!"Garrick replied and Jade started laughing.

"Btw, Garrick why Are you not eating sweetheart?" Muriel asked worriedly.

"I don't really feel like eating when Ned hasn't... I'm not gonna lie, The food looks and smells amazing! but I have no appetite." Garrick said while smiling at Thorn who smiled back.

"I get it, I would lose appetite too if Muriel skipped food as regularly as Ned does.

I'm surprised Ned's actually got some muscle on him, he barely eats!" Thorn replied.

Sighing, "Neddie does eat...but odd foods at odd hours." Muriel said.

Suddenly Out of nowhere and In a taunting tone, Matilda decided to say "Ned is so lucky he has my baby brother as his mate.

Garrick is so caring, I'm jealous."

Everyone kind of stopped and stared with confusion at Matilda, She was now exchanging weird looks with Socorro and it didn't sit right with anyone.

"Matilda, is there something wrong?" Lady Orange asked, making Henrietta smirk in a bad way, "Yeah, you." Henrietta replied to lady Orange.

"Amen." Thorn said almost chuckling earning himself a glare from Muriel.

"I was asking Matilda not you Henrietta, but I appreciate you wasting the last two words in your vocabulary on me." Lady Orange replied.

it was an unexpected reply that made Rapunzel who was drinking water, choke from laughing.

"Holy shit! *Coughing* haha! She got you Henri-baby!" Rapunzel said.

Ignoring Rapunzel, "What I meant, is that This is between A girl and her girlfriend, why are you talking in place of Socorro?" Henrietta asked lady Orange.

Suddenly, Socorro stood-up.

"Dear, is everything alright?" Lady Orange asked her surprised.

"Matilda, can I talk to you for a moment? outside." Socorro asked, "Oh so you can talk on your own now?"Matilda replied sarcastically.

"This isn't how you normally act Matilda and I'm worried...so please, come with me." Socorro said.

Sighing, "Shit, Fine... whatever." Matilda replied getting up, and quickly enough the two left the room.

"Let's hope no murder happens...I really like both girls." Thorn whispered jokingly to Muriel.

Raising an eyebrow, "Really sugar..." Muriel replied disappointed.

...Meanwhile...

"What was that remark you made inside?!" Socorro asked angrily as soon as they made it somewhere away from earshot.

"...'Socorro stop it you're hurting me!'..." Matilda replied.

Socorro was confused, "You told me to tell you these words if I ever felt hurt by you, well I am hurt Socorro!" Matilda explained.

Sighing, "Pumpkin...I..." Socorro said.

"Please, no more excuses!" Matilda replied before she broke down in tears.

Socorro got surprised and she quickly tried to wrap Matilda in a hug, but Matilda pushed her away.

"Don't..."

"Matilda, what's wrong?!"

"You, Lady Orange...EVERYTHING?! *Sniffling* why are doing this to me? do you find joy in making me lose my mind?!"

"Matilda I don't understand you."

"When did you?! EVER?!" Matilda's words Feel like a hammer against Socorro's heart.

"Tell me what I did wrong, I'll fix it right away!" Socorro asked desperately.

Swallowing, "What are you planning with Lady Orange? be honest with me I know you're planning something." Matilda asked while desperately trying to dry her eyes.

"Would you promise to forgive me, if you hear the truth?" Socorro asked back.

As she glanced at Socorro's charming reddish-brown eyes, Matilda wondered in her mind how this beautiful creature in front of her is as equally cruel as her beauty.

"Yeah, I promise...but only If you promise me, no more dealing with lady Orange." she said.

Sighing, "I promise you, no more Lady Orange...if that's really what you want." Socorro said hesitantly.

"I'm sure i don't want her in my life." Matilda replied.

...Few minutes later...

Both Socorro and Matilda went back inside the living room, Socorro has explained everything about Her deal with Lady Orange, and it seemed the two girlfriends were back on good terms since they came back into the Living room holding hands.

"Is everything good sis?" Garrick asked, "Yeah..." Matilda smiled weakly before Socorro let go of her hand.

And in a weird turn of event, Socorro goes back to her seat, only to grab her plate and placed it in front of the empty seat next to Matilda.

Since she was sitting next to lady Orange before she left, Lady Orange's face showed she felt offended by what Socorro just did, but she didn't utter a word against it, even when Henrietta smirked mockingly at her.

But unfortunately, Rapunzel decided to speak, "You know Coco honey, it's rude what you just did!" She said before giggling.

Garrick could see that things will only get worse around here with Rapunzel, his mother was trying to start a fight.

He didn't want to interfere so he chose to escape.

So taking a deep breath, Garrick stood up and said, "I'll go look for Ned." and left.

When Garrick was gone, Rapunzel stood up as well, "Going somewhere?" Henrietta asked.

"Duh! I'm done eating... I'll go sit somewhere else." Rapunzel replied grinning at her before she walked away.

"Good riddance." Matilda mumbled.

...Few minutes later...

After Garrick told them to go eat something, Jasper and Faunus came into the dinning room And both of them frowned at Lady Orange when they passed her.

The couple sat together on Henrietta's side, and Socorro decided to help them by filling Their plates, "Thanks Sweetie." Faunus said.

"Are you alright btw?" Matilda whispered to Faunus who nodded at her.

"I'm glad you're back Faunus." Thorn said, "Thank you, and for the food...smells amazing btw." Faunus replied.

"Faunus About earlier..." Lady Orange spoke up grabbing everyone's attention, "I apologize for the fight." She added.

"This double-faced whore." Matilda mumbled, "Apology not accepted." Faunus calmly replied and took a bite of his food.

Shocked, "Are you joking dear?!" Lady Orange asked, but suddenly "You know for a pretty bitch, your heart is ugly." Faunus said smirking.

Jasper eyed him with surprise and smirked as well.

"EXCUSE ME?!"

Everyone has stopped eating as Lady Orange slammed her hands on the table and stood-up angrily, "Did the truth hurt?" Faunus Asked.

"Faunus you know I have nothing against you!" Lady Orange said.

"Then you should." Faunus replied eating another bite.

"ENOUGH! I HAVE HAD IT WITH ALL OF YOU!" Lady Orange screamed making Faunus stand-up while slamming the table as well.

"If you cannot speak in a low tone then remain silent!" Faunus said.

"You are a failure...You have Dishonored your family's name, both you and your brother, Faunus." Lady Orange said making Faunus's eyes go wide open.

"HEY?! What did you just say?!" Jasper stood-up glaring at her, but before Lady Orange could say anything new, She was attacked by A bunch of magical chains that wrapped themselves around her neck and wrists, Faunus's Magical chains.

"UGh?! ... RELEASE ME THIS INSTANCE!" She screamed.

"Fau Hun, let us calm down!" Muriel said cautiously.

"NO!" Faunus yelled and yanked the chains, dragging Lady Orange across the table in the process.
