The Mafia Bride (Katrina and Silas)

Chapter 13

Katina's POV

It had been a few days since Silas kissed me and lifted the ban preventing the from moving around the house.

A few days of him ignoring my existence and walking past ine like I meant nothing to him.

Well, maybe I did mean nothing. He had said that over and over to my face.

But for some reason, his ignoring me made me feel angry. Like how dare he ignore me?

My feelings for Silas had changed from hatred to slight annoyance and lust and all it took was a single kiss for that to happen.

But it didn't help that I was asked to ignore the best kiss of my life which also happens to be my first kiss

And it also didn't happen that he kept walking past me and ignoring my existence in the hallways and wherever we saw.

There was this invisible barrier between us and it was put up by him.

"Fuck it!" I cussed out loud, pulling my pillow over my face and screaming.

All I've been doing was thinking about Silas because there wasn't anything else to do.

I could walk around the house and I was allowed into the library and the game room.

But that got boring after a while.

I wonder what my father would think when he found out that I was attracted to a man who was more than twice my age and who also happened to be my uncle and his arch-enemy.

I had no idea what my father could have done to make his brother-in-law hate him, but 1 figured it happened after the death of my aunt

The rest of Silas' family was not okay with me walking amongst them, and they didn't hide that

I didn't miss the constant jabs and insults they sent my way, and it was quite obvious that they hated my father just as much as Silas did.

Silas didn't stop them from talking, but I knew he had something to do with the fact they hadn't hit me before.

I wanted to scream and tell them that I wasn't my father and whatever he did to them wasn't my fault

But I couldn't

My father always tried to make life hell for me, and he seemed to be doing that right now too.

Someone knocked on my door and it was pushed open a few seconds later.

I pushed the pillow away from my face, watching the guard who walked into my room.

He looked around my room before his eyes fell on me. His face held no emotions, his eyes a soulless dark pit.
