II slump against the wall. As I look up I feel a shoe slam against my stomach as I look up
"God look how pathetic he looks"
"Yeah like a fucking beggar holding onto the ugly pendent !"
When I look up I see my whole classroom looking at me on the floor I look past them and I see a petite looking man skin that looked like silk glowing long black hair as he steps in his body moving like a swan
"come on you guy don't bully my brother too much because he is my brother at the end of the day"
As I hear his concern his voice is sugar sweet with a mix of malice, his eyes looking down at me just enough that no one who doesn't know him might hear it. He reaches out his hand as he offers an olive branch to me. I knew if I didn't take it now I would have to deal with a lot more than a few.
I reach out before getting kicked away.
"How dare you even think about laying your filthy hands onto Felix!"
I start to feel over 10 people stomping down onto my body. I curl up into a ball, and they just stomp even harder. They don't stop until I'm a shaking mess then they walk away laughing as Felix looks back and gives me a curl smirk.
I lay there and I pass out when I wake up I'm still in the same place I get up, and I see no one hear, so I steady myself on the wall as I limp home hours pass before I get home as I walk up to the door I hear soft whispering I take a deep breath before opening the door.
When I open the door a glass cup gets sent flying at me but due to my body already in pain I can't dodge as it hits my head, blood dripping down my head as I look at the person who threw it my father.
"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU? WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN YOU MOTHER HAD BEEN WORRIED SICK AND WHY DID HAVE THOSE PEOPLE BULLY YOUR BROTHER?!"
I look and see my mother holding my weeping brother.
"Brother I know you hate me but why did you have to hit me"
"I didn't…"
Before I could say another word my dad stands up and slaps me with his full strength stumble back from the blow as I stare at my father looking at me with pure hatred.
"STOP LYING FELIX TOLD US EVERYTHING WE SHOULD HAVE NEVER BROUGHT YOU BACK! KNELL DOWN RIGHT NOW UNTIL YOUR BROTHER FORGIVES YOU!"
…
"WELL!?"
"...no"
"WHAT?!"
"I SAID NO!"
My dad staggers back shocked that I'm fighting back he grabs his cane and starts hitting me with it.
"YOU UNGRATEFUL BASTED!"
I sit there and take it before having enough and snatching the cane out his hands and throwing to the floor he falls and my mom steps in.
"Everyone calm down please"
"Miss summer please stop always trying to be a peacekeeper you're the only ok person here, but you take Felix side more you might act like the voice of reason, but you're acting just like that son of yours not seen like an enemy"
My mom steps back as she covers her mouth as she starts to cry then Lilly, the sister I knew for 15 years steps in.
"Okay Blake your acting like a child just knell and apologize"
I look at her remembering the girl who would hold me when we were kids when I was sick, and she wouldn't let anyone take care of me but her even taking the blame only when Felix came back making everyone blind to him.
Like a cliché novel, we were switched at birth. I don't know why one of the richest families did not have at least one guard watching or even going to one of their private hospitals that they had for years.
"Lilly once Felix came back you stopped believing me not just you this whole family I truly cared for you, I should have left a long time ago"
Everyone stopped marry stops crying Felix face turns cold Arthur looked like he was going to have a heart attack I leave to my room author starts yelling, but I ignore it as I start packing my id and passport and my personal documents and think I bought it a though wasn't that much.
As I remember the day when my mom would tuck me in when my dad would show me how to golf when my sister would do my hair all gone when Felix arrived when he did he was fine wasn't rude at all.
He really liked me until one day he started to get a little too touchy. He would hold my hand, nothing too strange then hug my arm still normal. It only got weird when he would try to squeeze my tight i would push him off gently.
He would pout, but I would just brush it off until he climbed onto my lap and kissed me. I pushed him off and was mad at him. That's the day I found the 100s of love letters he made for me telling how much he had a crush on me and this was years before he came back.
I was harsh with him telling him we could never be together. I was too harsh when I said it. If I could, I would change what I said to him, but I couldn't. Then he would lie to his parents saying I did things to him like hit or bully him.
My parents didn't believe him at first until he would hurt himself and blame it on me until my parents and Lilly stopped believing me as I thought about Felix who walked in and hugged my neck from behind.
"Oh big brother just give into me and I can make mom and dad love you again just stop being difficult ~"
I look at him with disgust as I push him away he screams and falls back and hits his head on the table Arthur marries and Lilly all rush in they all go to check Felix I click my teeth as I walk out the room I head to the door as I hear Arthur yell.
"STOP RIGHT THAT YOU DARE HURT YOUR BROTHER AND TRY TO LEAVE?!"
I roll my eyes as I go to open the door two bodyguards grab me by the arms and force me to the floor.
"YOU'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE UNTIL YOU APOLOGIZE!"
Marry starts begging for me just to apologize as Lilly holds Felix. I just stay silent as Arthur gets madder and madder than snaps his fingers and calls in their 60-year-old butler James who was great in a lot of things.
Fighting cooking and torture he was a military info man he would force people to give the information he wanted he knew the limits of the human body in and out to how much pain someone could take until they would die.
How to make some feel pain without leaving one scar while doing the most pain
To how much strain until the person would die he looked at me with anger but this time he kept his voice leveled.
"I will ask one more time to get on your knees and apologize or else I will make you feel all of Felix's pain times 100!"
…
I don't respond as he finally snaps as he demands for James to take me to the room. I struggle against the guards, but they drag me into a semi large room like a living room dark and cold as James strips off all my clothes and ties me to a pillar.
He then drenches me with freezing cold water over and over again making my skin sensitive before grabbing a whip before I can say anything. I feel the whip slash across my back and I release a blood-curdling scream.
I look back and see Lilly Arthur and marry standing there as Lilly covers Felix eyes they look at me and walk away except Arthur he stays and says to James.
"Don't kill him just make sure he learns a lesson then take him to our private hospital lock him to the bed, so he doesn't try anything funny we will be back after"
He takes one last look at me before leaving I start to cry thinking how foolish I was to have any hope in this family hours pass I get wiped over 100 times thin needles shoved under my nails my body electrocuted until I convulsed razor blade cutting down my skin to make me feel the pain forcing my fingers into boiling water.
But never too much that it would ever heal wrong with the right medical treatment. All the scars would just after 12 hours of the torment I pass out when I make up. I have an iv drip in my arm as I look around. I see Lilly marry Arthur and Felix sitting around me.
Marry immediately hugs me crying but the only thing I feel is numb Arthur looks at me with a complicated face.
"The doctors say you'll recover in a month or two with some"
Lilly stands up
"Don't apologize to him dad if he just keeled down and apologized to Felix none of this would've happened"
"G-get out…"
Marry looks at me.
"What?"
I make my voice louder.
"I said get out all of you!"
Arthur looks at me disappointed before he can say anything Felix steps in.
"Brother I know you're mad at me, but I shouldn't blame it on mom and dad maybe I should just leave"
Felix gets up and runs away from Arthur Lilly and m, marry runs after him but then marry stops and returns my pendant the James removed that night
"Stay here Blake will come back"
After she said that she left, none of them came back. I stayed in the hospital for two months when I was discharged. I looked at my phone seeing a new post from Lily new post of them at the park. Having fun.
I called a cab to the place I called home as I walked in, maids were cleaning and preparing remembering it was mine and Felix's birthday, but I did not care as I saw my luggage was gone I asked a maid where it was, and she said they put all my stuff back in my room.
I scoffed as I went to my room and I packed again. After I finished it had turned dark. I walked out of my room as I walked into the living room and once I walked down the stairs I saw everyone sitting there smiling and eating.
I tried to avoid them, but Felix saw me and stopped me.
"Blake why did you not wait for us to pick you up we were worried sick"
Everyone stops and looks at me. Marry looked sad. Arthur looked slightly mad and lily annoyed.
"I only came back for my stuff I'm leaving today."
Aurther slammed his fits down onto the table.
"DO YOU EVER STOP WITH THE DRAMA? WE PUNISHED YOU SO WHAT!? IF YOU NEVER HURT FELIX NONE OF THIS WOULD'VE HAPPENED!!!"
I just look at the man I called my father for 18 years. As I walked to the door he stopped me.
"Walk out that door and I will never see as my son again"
I stopped before just leaving because it was near Christmas, so it was snowing hard. As I walked through the snow I was freezing, it felt like little needles poking my skin and I stumbled and tripped over the snow and ice as I walked away from the only home I knew.
I walked for at least 15 min my head start to get dizzy I fall to the floor as I can't even move any more I start to lose consciousness I fell my body get warm so I knew I was going to die but before I full passed out I heard a women's cold voice.
"It's him he has the necklace"
