I named this she's their life, as they can't live without her, literally. If something happens to her, they will die.

As much as I love Romance more than anything, I don't want romance in this book. This book is purely of brothers and sister.

Enjoy

****

I look at mom and dad in shock.

H---how?

They are smiling at me.

"We all love you, so much baby. We can't imagine being apart from you and for the past twelve years we were all living like this, cherishing your each and every memory, love you babygirl" mom says with tears in her eyes. My eyes glisten too.

I never felt so loved, protected in my whole life. I hug her tight. Her warm embrace giving me content and peace. Like it always does.

I felt someone hugging me from behind. I realise it's dad. He kisses my back head.

So everyone joins and it becomes a group hug.

"Okk, too suffocating" I say not able to breath.

We all break the hug, chuckling. I smile.

This is family.

My family.

"Ok, so let's get to show you the house" Oliver says.

This is my chance.

"If you don't mind, can Jayden show me the house?" I ask. Jayden looks me me with nothing on his face.

"I don't want to" he says, but dad glares at him. He reluctantly agrees.

"Fine" he says.

As we both move, Jaxon also start to come with us. I stop at look at him.

"You too, coming?" I ask. He nods.

"I can't leave you alone" he says and I shrug. Ok.

I just want to talk to Jayden.

As we walk, they both gives me the tour.

(Kitchen)

(Theatre room)

(Bar)

(Playing rooms)

All the while I was screaming and jumping.

It will be so much fun playing here.

Jayden was standing there on his phone. All the while, Jaxon was giving me the tour.

Now we all move to the first floor.

"Why there is a lounge on first floor?" I ask.

Jaxon shrugs. "I don't know. It is here since I was born. I never really asked".

There are so many playing room, I might faint.

Now we move to second floor.

It has gym.

And when we enter library I gasp. This is what I always wanted.

I will so enjoy reading this.

Second floor also has TV set.

I can watch this anytime.

Then Jaxon explained me everyone's room. While Jayden was standing there with bored expression.

"Mom and dad, Marco, the first pair of Twins and Caleb has rooms on the ground floor".

I nod.

He continue.

"Second pair of Twins, Dylan, Ethan, Gabriel, me and Jayden, on first floor. We both share room" he says. (And means that they share room.)

"Levi, Monday and you, Oliver and Samuel, Lincoln are on second floor."

"Third floor is kind of prohibited, for you, it has Marco's office and few guests room"he says and I frown.

Why prohibited?

I would never sneak there. If it's prohibited then it's fine by me. I'm not a brat.

As my house tour overs. I glance at Jayden who is on his phone, ready to leave.

No, I will solve this matter now.

"Do you hate me?" I ask him. He is surprised for a minute, glancing from his phone. He rolls his eyes.

"No" he again goes back to his phone.

"Then why are you behaving like this? I understand, it must be difficult for you to accept me. But I accept you. Please give me a chance, don't hate me" I say, but he is on his phone.

I get irritated.

To dustbin his phone.

I snatch his phone and now I have my attention.

I never want to hate Mona, never. In fact, I love her the most. When I saw her. I just wanted to hug her and protect her from the world. But I can't do that, she is weak and I hate weak.

As she talks with me, I try to ignore her but I'm failing miserably, suddenly phone is snatched is from my hand. I look to see Mona.

Suddenly irritation and anger courses through my body.

How dare she?

"Give me my phone, back." I say in a threatening voice. But she is standing still.

"No, you have to talk to me, First" she says, her voice is full of determination.

I'm getting irritated my the second.

"Give me"

"No, tell me what is wrong with you?" She asks.

That's it. No one dares to question me.

I snap.

"What's wrong with me? What is with you? Why you came back? After all these years now I have learned to live without you, now you are back. And this is not it, you don't even know, how to even protect yourself. Am I right? You just look weak. The world out there is cruel. Dad has business and with business comes enemies. If someone tries to take us away from you. What will you do? You can't always be dependent on us. Can you? You never should have come back. It would have been easier" I roar and then I immediately regret all of it.

I thought Mona will cry or something, but instead she has a smile gracing her face.

"You know" she starts softly.

"I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth. But it was not forever. I was taken away. You think, I have not seen the world. I know the world is cruel. What do you think, at the age of 5, the people at orphanage were pampering me? No, when I was 5 years old. I was left on road. I used to be with people who used to sell food. I was there, making patties or some kind of food, I used to burn myself. I have seen manipulative people from a very small age. From the age where a child should learn words, I was sent to learn to see people.

I was 8 years old, I was walking and suddenly a man came from behind and smashed his hand on my mouth. I was scared, crying. He had his knife on my throat, threatening me to give him money, I didn't had any, my mind was a blur, all my thinking was to get away from there as soon as possible. So I did, what I had to do, I fought him. With all my strength and will power I fought and ran away from there.

For the past 12 years of my life, I have Burned myself in front of fire, just to prove people, that I'm worthy of something.

You think I'm all happy now I'm here, no, somewhere in afraid too, what if you all are taken away from me? What if I wake up one day and I get to know that this was all a dream? What if I go back to my old life, where I had less clothes, no friends to share anything, where I have to survive in my own, I don't even know the meaning of Penis. I might look weak, Jayden. But I'm not. I have seen a world, which a child should not or never see.

If you want I can go away from here, but you and me, both know that neither you will be able to endure the pain nor me. I will always try to protect myself, I have been doing this till now. But now I want to rely, I want to dependent on my brothers, who I know loves me so much and I love them too, which includes you too, Jayden. I know no matter what, you will protect me. For once in my life I want to feel love. Hate me all you want, but from my side you will get nothing but love" Mona says all the way smiling, she then walks away.

She left me shocked and surprised. She is so young yet she spoken so maturely.

A hand comes to my shoulder and I realise it's Jaxon.

"You can't judge, Jayden. I know you love her and you worry for her. I also know you will make this right." He says smiling.

I was about to say something. When all my brothers come.

"We heard everything" Marco says.

"I just want that bastard who tried to harm, our Mona" Henry says.

"Language" Samuel scolds him.

Henry rolls his eyes.

Sometimes I wonder who is younger!

"I will talk to her" Oliver says.

"No, this is something very crucial and delicate matter, I will handle this" Marco says.

And no one disobeys him.

He looks me.

I understand what he wants to say.

I walk away, to my room with one thing on my mind, Mona.

I sigh seeing the retrieving figure of my younger brother.

"Don't worry Marco, he will be alright" Jaxon says.

I nod, going towards my room.

I'm so happy that Mona is back now. That's why today I had taken a holiday, to be with her. It's not even lunch time and the drama has started to create.

I'm mad on Jayden. But somewhere he is right. We being in Mafia, being lots of danger, we might not always be there to protect her.

But I know this myc that I will protect her with my whole being. Even if it means for me to die. I will do it happily. I can't be without her. We all need her like oxygen.

She has just been for a day now but she has already started to affect us, in a good way.

I take a deep breath and walk toward Mona's room which is in the second floor.

Sometimes I wish for a elevator or escalator here, but no luck, till now.

As I reach her room, I knock.

I don't hear anything, after a minute I again knock.

No response.

I open the door to see it's empty.

I searched for here everywhere, but she is no where.

As I step into the ground floor. I'm greeted by my brother's voices and I move toward them.

Then panic in my body, is rising, by the minute.

Where is she, now?

Please god, let her be okay.

Just now, we have found her.

As I reach them, they all look at me in sync.

"Where is Mona?" I ask.
