Dark Places (ONGOING)

Torture and Chicken Alfredo

*Evangelos pov*

"What the fuck have you done to her?!"
The girl I now know as Zelda yelled at me. I look at her confused and then back at Octavia.

"No one has done anything to me, I'm hung over," Octavia said tiredly before Zelda could respond Octavia's phone started ringing.

She answered and put it on speaker, I guess so she's comfortable or maybe so the twins could hear.

"When are you coming to pick him up" was the first thing the woman said.

Octavia mumbled "shit" before she responded "I'm on my way now to pick him up I should be there in 30 minutes. I expect him to be well, if not you know the price" Octavia replied coldly.

Who is he? and why is she so protective of him?

Does she already have a boyfriend? She wouldn't have done anything if she did, right?

I'm pulled out of my thoughts when I heard her order the twins to go get him and come back here.

I think I'm jealous. Whatever I'll know who it is when they get back. Why bring him here?
——————————————

After about an hour and a half, Octavia and I are still in the same position, me playing with her hair while she is laying on my lap with a blanket wrapped around her. I'm scrolling through emails before I heard Octavia practically yell "My baby" she sounded so happy.

It made my chest tighten but I looked up anyway. Instead of seeing some other man like I thought it would be. I see a big, beautiful brown and white Siberian Husky.

The dog is jumping around in front of us licking Octavia's cheek. When he noticed me all hell broke loose.

The dog started growling viciously at me. Octavia moved to get up and I let her, she started speaking sternly in Russian

"Драко, перестань рычать, он нам нравится" I looked at her while she was speaking and she looks hot speaking different languages. (Russian translation- Draco, Stop growling, We like him")

I understood what she said as I know a few languages. I think I felt my heart flutter when she said she likes me.

The dog, Draco walked up to me and started to sniff me. I just let him. When he backed away he saw Killian and looked at Octavia for confirming if he was okay.

Octavia nodded, and Draco walked towards Killian, the latter looking scared. Draco sniffed him too and walked back toward Octavia.

Octavia had already laid back down in my lap and I think Draco was jealous. He jumped onto the couch and laid right on top of Octavia, she let out a breathless laugh but she didn't move him.

I stare at Octavia for a while when she suddenly looks up at me. I stare into her eyes which are beautiful but look so broken. I can tell she was about to fall asleep again so I looked at the clock. It read 12:32 pm.

I sighed and pulled her on my lap so she wrapped her legs around my waist and her arms around my neck. Draco looked mad at me for taking her.

I stood up to walk back to my room with the dog following me. Oliver looked confused "Where are you taking her?" his question came out edgy.

I understand why though, he cares for her.
"I'm taking her to bed, she's tired and didn't sleep much last night" It sounded innocent to the twins until Elliot scoffed making us look at him.

Elliot smirked and the twins knew exactly what he meant.

Zelda had a big ass grin on her face and Oliver looked horrified.
I heard Octavia laugh tiredly. I was about to walk away again when I heard Oliver "I told the Romanos we wanted to stay with our friend one more night since we just had so much fun," he said sarcastically and continued,

"The sperm donor said it's fine but we have to be at school and come straight home or there will be consequences." he sounded annoyed by the time he was done talking.

Octavia lifted her head and with the most wicked smirk she said "What's he gonna do, beat me?" I stared at her with wide eyes and Killian started choking on his water.

The twins just started laughing before Oliver said "You know Papa will slaughter their entire family." I didn't know if I should say anything so I remained quiet until Octavia laid back down on my shoulder and Draco nudged my foot.

When I got to the top of the stairs I looked back down "Your welcome to stay here, Killian will take you to a guest room." I spoke to the twins, I knew they wouldn't leave Octavia anyway.

I made my way into my room, leaving the door cracked open in case one of them needed something. I laid her down before taking my shirt and sweatpants off leaving me in boxers.

I laid down beside her but she moved closer to me and laid my head on her chest. She wrapped her arms around my shoulders, playing with my hair.

After a few minutes she fell asleep, I had my hand under her shirt tracing a tattoo on her side. I fell asleep right after her.

I woke up when someone pushed my door open, the light from the hallway coming in, I realized I was laying on top of Octavia, I had my arms wrapped around her tightly. I didn't know if I was hurting her so I let go.

Draco was laying on the other side of Octavia, he looked up at the door as soon as I did, and then he laid back down unfazed.

I looked towards the door, I see Oliver looking at me weirdly. I felt like I should talk to him, I slowly unwrap myself from her arms, put sweatpants on, and leave closing the door.

Oliver was at the door waiting for me to come out. I led us to the kitchen and got a glass of water. "Do you want anything to eat or drink?" I asked Oliver, they got here early this morning and it's already almost 5:00 pm. Oliver accepted my offer and I started making Chicken Alfredo.

Oliver slightly smiled when he saw it but I didn't question it. I know he was about to ask a question so I just stayed quiet.

"What do you want from her?" Oliver asked tiredly. "I don't want anything from her" I stated confidently. I don't want anything but her attention.

"I just don't understand, she's 17. Hell all 3 of us are and you're in your 20's. I don't want her to get hurt more than she already is. I know it's inevitable but it doesn't mean I can't try to protect her." Oliver stated in a serious and stern voice, making sure I understand his underlying threat.

I said something I didn't mean to say out loud "I'm falling in love with her, I barely know her but everything about her makes me care about her even more." while I'm rambling scared of his reaction, he is smiling.

"Hurt her and I will make sure you fall completely, 6 feet underground," Oliver stated seriously.

Out of nowhere, Zelda walked in laughing about how Oliver was cringy. Zelda saw the Chicken Alfredo and grinned at Oliver.

I was about to ask why they smiled at the Chicken Alfredo when Killian walked in followed by a grumbling Octavia who is drowning in my clothes. She is so adorable.

She looked mad, I'm guessing Killian woke her up to eat. As soon as she saw the Chicken Alfredo she started grinning like a madman.

I looked at the twins and they responded with "Torturing people and Chicken Alfredo can make her the happiest girl in the world" Oliver said like it was normal.

Octavia came to get the plate I had already made her. She grinned at me and gave me a quick kiss on the cheek. I looked surprised because well, I haven't seen her this happy the entire time she's been here.

We all sat down at the kitchen table talking and laughing like we'd known each other for an entire lifetime.

Octavia's phone started ringing, she looked at her phone and her face went completely void of emotions.

She answered the phone, putting it on speaker, and spoke coldly "Speak"
