Kitten

Ch. 31

- Isadora's POV -

"Stop that." I said sharply to Leo while looking over my shoulder.

'Stop what?" He grinned.

"You know what. Stop or I'll beat you with this spatula." I warn him. I finish flipping a pancake and wave the spatula in his face. He looks at Mirella confused.

"Tell me princess, what did I do? I was just sitting here." He says innocently. He is anything but innocent.

"You were staring at her. Santi doesn't like it when boys stare at her." She stated. He glared and stuck his tongue out at her, making her giggle. I set a plate of pancakes in front of her.

"Exactly. Thank you princess." I kiss her head and go back to the stove. He follows. Leaning on the counter top, he got that look on his face. That look that said he wanted to ask me something inappropriate. "Whatever it is, the answer is no." I warned him.

"I didn't say anything." He said nonchalantly. I roll my eyes and stand on my tip toes to reach the cinnamon on the spice rack above the stove. I feel something hard and warm pressed against my backside. Oh my god! Is he fucking grinding against my ass!? I see Leo's hand grab the bottle and I push him hard away from me.

"Are you kidding me?" I holler and he throws his hands in the air.

"You're short, so I was just trying to help." He tosses the cinnamon at me. I catch it and throw it right back, hitting him in the shoulder. "Real mature."

"Shut up! You know what you did. Did you not learn your lesson the first time? Was the beating you got not substantial enough to be a reminder? There's a reason Rafael says don't touch me. I don't want to be touched."

"I see you give the guys hugs all the time! You let them touch you." He sneers, getting frustrated.

"They wouldn't try to cop a feel like you just did! When they hug me, that's exactly all it is, a hug. If you hugged me, you would try to feel me up somehow." I sneer back.

"A bit of a presumptuous judgement seeing as you don't know me." He took a step closer. I look behind him and see Rafael and his brothers. Oh shit! How long have they been standing there. Rafael was livid.

"Maybe I don't, but Rafael does." I nod, indicating for him to look behind him. When he turns and sees them he breaks out into nervous laughter.

"Did I not say I would break your fucking hand if you touched her?" Rafael asked calmly. He was murdering Leo with his eyes. He took a step forward and Leo panicked. This wasn't Rafael. This was The Shiv.

"You know I like to joke around primo. (Cousin) I meant no harm." He chuckled. One second I see Rafael's hands are empty. I look at the guys who were just as angry, then back at Rafael's hand. He was holding a blade. Rafael took a step towards him and Leo held out his hands to stop him. Rafael pinned him to the wall and stabbed the blade into Leo's hand, going straight through to the wall. "Ahh! Fuck!" He yelled and sucked air through his teeth. Rafael backed away and took another blade out, twirling it in his fingers. Leo tried removing the blade in his hand and Rafael threw the one in his hand at Leo. Landing dangerously close to his head, Leo stopped and put his hand down.

"Try to remove it before I say you can and I'll put another one in your other hand." He growled and took out yet another blade from his pocket. How many blades does he carry on him!?
