Chapter 1: The beginning
"Ria!"
The sound of my father's voice echoed through the halls as he made his way through the house, I sat up and stretched as he tried to enter my room failing miserably because my door just so happened to be locked. I scratched my head and opened the door.
" What did I say about locked doors" I stared at the brown-skinned sweaty man standing at my door and shrugged my shoulders " sorry you didn't come home last night so I locked my door in case of safety," I told him honestly.
" about that-" he paused, running his hand through his curly hair he had let out of the man-bun " I was with Lanna and before you say anything about her not existing and me just being a lonely creep, you're meeting her today" He placed his both hands on his hips.
I quirked an eyebrow making my piercing stand up " meeting your somehow real girlfriend?" I asked sarcastically, turning around to collect my clothes for the day as he nodded to my words. "you want me? your mixed, brown almost dark-skinned daughter to meet your high-class white-Asian girlfriend?" I asked scanning my closet judging my clothes.
I wasn't even prepared for this, I didn't have any type of high-classed anything to even seem close to presentable " trust me she'll love you just be yourself and be comfortable, dress how you want just don't show too much skin and behave so I don't have to beat your ass" he warned me, venom leaking from his last few words.
Granted being an only child meant he'd have to 'protect me and prepare me for the outer world' but he was also still okay with me being punished like a regular child. He believed in whooping kids with belts, brooms, or cords.
I pulled out a black button-up with ripped jegging's and black timberlands, it didn't break my comfort but it also gave off a good vibe.
I grabbed my undergarments and my soap with my back scrubber and my washcloth " where are the dry towels pops?" I asked after setting everything up in the bathroom " in the closet across from your room where it always goes" he said trying to seem witty.
" don't gotta act like a bitch" I mumbled to myself.
" I HEARD THAT" he yelled from downstairs " YOU GOT AN HOUR THEN WE'RE LEAVING"
I huffed and turned the water on after facing the shower head toward the wall " she better be cute"

We pulled up to a small art cafe like building " are we going to grab a coffee? if so can we get donuts and hot Cheetos?" I asked and he shook his head " we're here to meet her not get fat" he rolled his eyes as he exited the car.
"I'm not fat I got Lil tummy but for the most part I'm just thick with three c's " I snapped my fingers in the air after getting out of the car " just like ya mama no titties just ass" he laughed and I paused to stare at him.
" you did not just talk body about my mama" I stood with my head tilted to the side " knowing her deadbeat ass could NEVA pull this off" I snapped my fingers again and he glanced at me with a smile proving my point.
"I can't stand you" he laughed at me as I walked into the cafe " so! where's she at?" I asked standing up straight while scanning the area.
I stopped my gaze looking at a family of three, The mother was gorgeous she had slit eyes, wavy hair, and shiny yet pale peach skin. While her daughter had brown straight hair and bangs looking just like her but more white and the husband DAMN he was fine.
Tattoos danced up his arms and somewhere on his neck while he looked like a white fuckboy his face and his eyes screamed Asian all over them, If only my dad could pull a family like that.
" there she is," he said making his way to the table with the people I just drooled at " them? you're in a three-way?" I whisper yelled and he looked at me like I was the devil dressed in bright red flames walking into church. " anyway, Lanna Meet my daughter Azariah" he introduced and she shook my hand standing up.
I wasn't paying attention before but hot damn, she had a solid C-cup chest, wearing a crop sweater top exposing a lot of stomach with high-waisted skinny blue jeans that hugged perfectly and she was thick. " pleasure to meet you, this is my son Le-sean and my daughter Kristiana" she introduced and I glanced at them both before looking at my dad.
" don't hit me and I mean this with no disrespect but how did you score such a hot girlfriend? and why ain't you tell me she had kids" I crossed my arms and he stared at me with his mouth agape " it was supposed to be a surprise and I have mentioned her kids at least once or twice" he tried to reason and I shook my head clarifying that he did indeed not mention them at all to me in the past year.
" well, what if we discuss this more at a better place plus we have news" Lanna chipped in with a smile that could knock anyone off their feet, she was drop-dead gorgeous " with all due respect ion do dinners plus I got places to be so I'll see you at home," Le-sean said while getting up to leave and tucking his phone away. He went to walk away but Lanna piped in before he could get anywhere near away from the table.
" You know I don't get down that way at all so sit yo ass back down and stop being disrespectful or you'll spend the week with your father" she glared and he scoffed before taking his seat " ha-ha" Kristiana mocked him and he looked at her making her stop " shut it roach you're just laughing because you sit up her ass every day without a life"
She opened her mouth staring at him shocked " not true! I have friends" she whined and he laughed " Mr. snuggles doesn't count" he said propping his legs on the table and she crossed her arms.
Lanna and my father pinched the bridge of their nose as they listened to them bicker back and forth " anyways, Ria you're the second oldest and hopefully, stuff changes in the future and you can cure that mess" Lanna said and her son looked at her before chuckling " you're saying that like we're gonna live together" he laughed it off before stopping and staring at her as she held no expression not finding it funny.
" you're serious? I am not living with that" he gestured to me and I scoffed " first lesson homeboy, not everybody wants you and secondly I'd rather die, pop's you can not possibly want that" I turned to my father pointing to the boy who licked his lips " we are actually engaged and it's the plan"
I clicked my tongue and turned around " let me know when you got sense, this isn't going to last for damn sure, it's temporary we were fine without them and we always will be " I snapped as I left them to go sit in the car, I knew I had no right to say what I said but it was true, I didn't need another mom incident. I stopped walking to my car when I saw Lesean walking toward my direction " what?"
He stopped and motioned for me to follow him " hell no" I opened the car door and he slammed it shut " your dad wants me to take you home so just come get in my car so you don't have to sit here until their done" he crossed his arms leaning against the car " I'm not letting you take me home, I don't need you stalking me"
He grabbed my wrist and pulled me along to the car two ways down in the parking lot before shoving me into the door " make this easier on yourself, I don't like coming off as aggressive" he flared his nose trying to indicate he was annoyed " yeah well I don't ride with fuck boys" I mocked him before trying to leave, he wrapped his hands around my throat and slammed me back into the car door. I wasn't short though, I stood a good 5'7 but for him, he stood a good 6'0-6'2.
"I'm not playing cat and mouse with you just get in the damn Jeep" he got close to me and I stared up at him, my legs began to feel like jelly. I reached for the door handle as he let go of my throat ' what the fuck' I thought to myself as I entered the car.
I sat down and stared at him as he started the car, for someone so fine he was an asshole " take a picture it'll last longer" he glanced at me and I rolled my eyes turning away from him to look out the tinted windows.
He gave off that fuckboy vibe but from the way he just acted he might not be one " if you weren't my mom's boyfriends daughter, I would've left your ass but I'm not gonna disappoint her and I refuse to hear her mouth," he said as we drove off.
" where do you live?" he asked and I scoffed " drop me off at the park I can walk by myself" I sighed and he shook his head " stop being a brat and just tell me where you live," he said, side glancing me and I shook my head " we're just going to have to be driving for some time cause I'm not telling you where I live" I replied and he bit his lip.
He drove toward the direction of my house and my eyes widened, this man might actually know where I stay " you're going the wrong way" I inquired, slightly more panicked than I wanted it to be. He looked at me and shook his head " judging by your voice, I know I'm not so just tell me baby girl" he said becoming a little flirty.
I clicked my tongue and crossed my arms staring out the window, I inhaled sharply at the feeling of his hand grasping my thigh "excuse me? move" I pointed at his hand " you're making this harder than it has to be " he replied " you're not getting my address" I denied again and his hand moved higher towards my heat as he applied more pressure in his grip causing me to jerk back.
"would you rather me continue and we take this to my house or you just quit the act and let me know where you live?" he asked and I shook my head " neither"
I would be lying if I wasn't feeling him right now but my father raised me better, I let out a small sigh as his hand made it's way higher and closer before his finger grazed the soft material against my clothed vagina " if I didn't know any better, I'd have thought you wanted to take this to my house" he said as he hit a turn and tugged at the waistband of my jeans...
" 6100 Cromwell circle" I panicked stopping his hand from touching my aroused body, he smirked as he pulled his hand out of my pants
" that's all it took? haha," he drove further ahead before entering the culdesac and pulling up to my mother's house.
Don't get me wrong we aren't on good terms but I did have to collect my belongings she still kept when I was ten. We used to have split custody up until I was about fourteen years of age.
I exited the car and entered the house locking the door while watching him drive off " Why're you here?" my mom's new husband asked and I walked past him heading upstairs " getting my shit, why the fuck are you here?" I asked, giving him the bird.
" I live here it's my house I married her and I'd appreciate if you cut the disrespect before I cut it for you" he threatened as I put my stuff in my old Hulk Suitcase " you can't touch me," I said as I zipped it shut " my dad would beat your ass" I sniffled as I stood up and stared at the muscle pig standing in the doorway " Move Devin," I said as I stood in front of him
"I don't know who the fuck you think you're talking to and until you learn some respect you can't come back so go put that shit back and leave" he points to the closet and I scoffed " if you don't get the fuck-" he cut me off, his palm coming into contact with my right cheek, " I SAID PUT IT BACK" he yelled as my head flew to the side. I clenched my fist and slapped him back. His head turned to the right and he started laughing " you leaving one way or another" he muttered before grabbing my hair and dragging me out the room " bitch!" I screamed as I started swinging, punching, and kicking at him yet he wouldn't let go of my precious hair.
He started pulling me harder and pushing me around before we made it to the stairs, he let me go so I took the opportunity to lunge at him but he kicked me making my body tumble down the first flight of 13 stairs. When I landed in the small hallway I laid there holding my stomach where his foot made contact " f-fuck" I groaned, my voice coming out horse. I'd gotten into a lot of fights but never with someone this strong and I mean granted he's grown an ass man but damn!
He walked down grabbing my hair and dragging me down the last 10 " get out " he said dropping me at the couch " No means of being rude but I dropped someone off I don't mean to intrude but-" I looked up to see Le-Sean inside the house with the door open and some guy with him " what the fuck?" he asked glancing between us before walking toward us, my mom's husband stood in front of me and held his hand out " you aren't welcome here, she can make it back to her daddies house by herself " he glared at Le-Sean.
Le-Sean looked down before cracking his neck " who are you to tell me what to do? give me my step sister and we can go without a problem" He said as his friend stood next to him " just go home I can catch a cab" I whispered as I stood up slightly bent over holding my stomach, it hurt too much to stand up fully and all I wanted was to go home and have my dad take care of me.
" Nah see that ain't how this works, you were sent to come home with me not to whoever this bitch is and I'm not taking any chances of you getting your ass beat by this piece of shit," he said as he went to grab me.
My mom's husband shoved Le-Sean and went to swing but whoever the other guy was, had pulled out a taser and stuck him in the neck " get her stuff I got him" he told Le-Sean as he started to beat the hell out of Devin " Thanks Raymond"
I watched as Le-Sean walked upstairs and came back with my suitcase " I'm guessing it's yours?" he asked and I nodded grabbing it and using it as a walker " I also grabbed this" he held out a music box, that was a gift I gave my mom when I was 8 she swore she loved it but stopped using it some years back it just sat in my old room till now.
" WHAT THE FUCK" we all looked toward the door as my mom walked in, she had on a tank-top with black ripped jeans and her hair was up showing her freckles and elf-like ears. She wasn't ginger nor an amazon princess but she looked the part " no es lo que piensas mamá " ( it's not what it looks like mom)"
I bit my lip as she walked in to examine me " Te lastimó?" ( he hurt you ) she asked and I nodded " why are here? I thought I told you not to be here unless I was here" she asked again and I shrugged " I just wanted my stuff and things got carried away" I told her honestly and she shook her " Te lo habr��a traído, no es Seguro en estas partes" (( I would have brought it to you it's not safe in these parts )) I frowned and looked down, she was the one who told me to get my shit the last time I was here and she barely can remember my address " mom I'm eighteen almost nineteen I can do it myself plus you're always busy"
" not to ruin your little chat but your dad texted me and asked where we're at, he also asked if we could be home soon," Sean asked and my mom faced him but froze before snatching the box "get her there safe but don't touch anything here nor do you ever come back I appreciate the effort but leave my daughter alone Sean I know what you do and I know how your family gets down," she said and rushed us out so she could help her husband.
Once in the car and motion, I cleared my throat " How do you know my mother?" I asked and he sighed
" long story"
