Tangled Obsession novel Chapter 27

FLORINA'S POV

I could feel myself freezing in my place when I saw them.

Vincenzo was sitting quietly on the chair while crossing his legs and Sebastian was sitting across vincenzo relaxed, he has taken off his coat which was resting on his chair.

Adrenaline rushed in my body when they both looked at me at the same time, the grey and amber eyes. So beautiful yet so dangerous. I couldn't read them, they were looking calm but Angry at the same time. I should run, that's the first thought in my mind but it's of no use, they have caught me.

I shouldn't have trust Maria...

I waited for them to do something, to say something but they didn't. Why Sebastian isn't lashing out on me, he should right?. I am sure I have given him enough reasons. I don't know what to expect from vincenzo, he is always so calm and unpredictable. They just stared at me which is making me more anxious.

"Good morning everyone..."

I looked at the person who greeted everyone with joyful voice.

My eyebrows automatically scrunched together when I saw the same lady from other night, entering the dinning hall like she owns the house. Who is she, from the aura she looks quite important.

She gave me small smile while I just stood there confused.

"Hello, I am Catherine..."

Well that's not helping much, should I ask her who is she to them. Will it be rude?

Catherine towered over me as she waited for my reply. She is tall and with the High heels she is wearing I had to look up to meet her gaze.

"Florina..."

"Hmm... I know, you have made yourself known... Quite a Beauty I must say..."

She gave me smirk and I swear it's not good at all. I could tell she doesn't like me, well I don't care either. Who is she anyway?.

I am a friendly person but I don't like people like Catherine who started taunting me for no reason, I don't think she has a reason to do that.

Catherine looked at Sebastian and vincenzo and smiled, this time her smile was genuine like she has found a treasure.

She went towards them and kissed vincenzo's cheek and he greeted her back too with mad look, he almost looked cute with sulking face.

Shut up Florina... He is not cute.

She also kissed Sebastian's cheek but he stayed silent, he neither stopped her nor payed attention.

"Why are you standing there florina... Come sit..."

Catherine said as she sat down on the chair.

I walked towards the table and sat down leaving two chairs between me and vincenzo. Don't blame me I am maintaining a safe distance, god knows when they loose it and shoot me dead.

"So florina... How was your night. I hope you slept well..."

She asked with smile but why I can't find any sweetness in that. It feels like she trying to judge me, I could see suspicion in her eyes very clearly.

Why would she care if I slept well or not___

Wait! Is this her house. Oh my god! Is she Maria's mother. It means she is Sebastian's stepmother...

"Yes I slept well... Thank you..."

I forced a smile.

Catherine nodded and tried to say something or start a conversation but vincenzo interrupted her saying something in Italian.

I wish I could understand that, I am loosing so much information.

Catherine glared at vincenzo and he seemed like he doesn't give a fuck while Sebastian was glaring at the food.

What's the fuck is exactly going on.

As much I know vincenzo and Sebastian are the enemies and they shouldn't be in one house. Not at the dinning table at least. And why Sebastian's stepmother behaving like she knows vincenzo better. This is really very confusing.

Catherine and vincenzo exchanged few words in Italian and she sighed in defeat.

"Fine... We will talk in my office..."

"Sebastian why aren't you eating anything son... Please eat, i have specially prepared everything for you..."

She said sweetly just like my mother used to talk to me. At least by her tone I don't think she treats Sebastian different from her own child.

But when Catherine talked to Sebastian vincenzo scoffed and glared at Sebastian while Sebastian just Smirked. What the hell is their problem. Sebastian didn't said anything to Catherine, not even a smile but started eating and her face filled with happiness. She also filled vincenzo's Plate with food.

"I think you should eat too... You must be tired of running all the night..."

Vincenzo said looking straight in my eyes and that's it, all my hunger flew out of the window. He is mocking me.

"I a_am not hungry..."

Stop with stuttering florina, for God sake.

I have to find Maria, what she was thinking god knows. I want my answers.

I tried to stand up but__

"Sit the fuck down..."
