PRETTY AS A PICTURE

CHAPTER 13 FIRST KILLS

IZZY'S POV

Waking up the next morning cuddled up to my brother that I had just met was a little weird, however waking up with Max sitting and just staring at us was hella weird. "Good Morning Princess" Max said with a huge smile on his face. "Morning Max" , I shoved Jax he grumbled "F u c k off" I giggled then shoved him harder, he opened his eyes "F u c k Izzy keep still" "I need to go to the bathroom so move your gigantic self" Jax chuckled but moved now wide awake " Good Morning Dad" Jax said as he stretched. I took off to the bathroom did my business and decided to shower while I was in there.

I was done then realized I had no clean clothing so I yelled out to Jax "Yo Jax can I borrow a shirt" he yelled back "You have been my sister only a matter of hours and already your taking my stuff" I stood in the bathroom in my towel chuckling to myself. Jax came in and threw a shirt and a pair of sweats at me. I dressed and joined he and Max at the kitchen counter. "Where's Ma?" I asked "She's gone to collect your clothing to bring here, she'll back in a hour or so" max replied.

"Dad I decided even though Izzy is kind of weird and not cute at all she makes a great pillow so lets keep her" Jax said cheekily, Max laughed with him. "Actually Max I was going to apologize to you for having you think you had to contend with only an i***t son when you had a perfectly good daughter here this whole time". I retorted with a smile. Max started laughing uncontrollably while Jax had me in a head lock messing up my hair. 

The three of us ate breakfast whilst getting to know each other. I found out Jax was my only sibling and his Ma died 4 years ago. In a turn of events it turned out, My Ma was the legal wife, Jax's Ma was the Mistress. Max told me he had gotten Jax's Ma pregnant before marriage and that my Ma didn't know that she or Jax existed. He explained that when he took my Ma it was not forced but planned and the only way he thought he could keep her was by tying her in a marriage so that's what he did. He explained she soon found out about Jax and his Ma and she refused to see Jax suffer as a Mistress's son so she left him to make sure he did right by Jax and his Ma.

"So Izzy I am grateful to your mother she selflessly gave up her own happiness for mine, so last night when you asked if I was going to try kill you or her it was easy to answer No, I owe your ma a debt" he said with a smile. "You asked Jax if he was going to kill you?" Max asked with a chuckle "Yup I just have a gift people meet me and want to kill me" I said shrugging my shoulders. "See dad weird, she's crazy" Jax said chuckling shaking his head. 

My Ma walked in smiling with our bags, Max got up to take them from her, "Thanks Max" she said as she blushed. I hit Jax to get his attention "Dude did she just blush". "yup she sure did" Jax replied smirking. "Ewww  do you think they, you know", "I think they f u c k e d " he said like saying s**t like that was normal. "Dude your talking about our parents, you just traumatized my virgin self" I said jokingly covering my ears.

"Virgin aye" he responded "and proud fucker". Jax and I continued to laugh. Max and Ma sat down stopping Jax and I's banter. " So kids I have cleared my schedule for the next 2 weeks and Jax's for 4, because our time is limited, Ara has agreed to let me purchase a house that you will share with Jax and I when we come here on business or to visit, this way you can stay with this Familia but be apart of mine as well, Don Diego has agreed to have us frequent his territory, but he has stipulated that you are to be housed in this neighborhood to help keep you both safe" 

 "You are not happy with the plans Izzy" Max asked concerned. "I am totally ok I just don't really get along with the Don's kids so living close to them isn't going to be fun". "Okay so today Ara and I will start looking for houses and you and Jax can do what ever" Max said smiling while he sighed with relief.

I decided to take Jax to the Firing range so we got ready and headed out we pulled up in front and made our way inside.

Pops walked out "Jax, Izzy nice to see you 2 getting on and not trying to kill each other" he said with a smile. "To be honest fletch I haven't made my mind up yet" Jax said with a smile. "Hold on Pops you and jax are a little to friendly what's the relationship" I asked suspiciously " I helped train Jax, Izzy so the same Psychological training you went through, I put Jax through because there was no one in his Familia who would teach him out of fear of Max's revenge should anything go wrong, and Jax here was adamite that he go through it, So Max gave him to me"

I began to laugh " so pops totally kicked your a s s for 14 days" . "14 days? it's only 7 Izzy and how is it you got to do this training, if you were with our Familia Dad would never have allowed it". Jax said a little angry." Long story short I was not brought up in a Familia and my Poppa trained me and yes I did 14 days because I am cool like that" I responded with a smile. "any way lets shoot" I said trying to change the subject.

Our day at the range was fun, I totally kicked Jax's a s s in every weapon discipline he was incredible but I was just better. Pops let me go for it, he decided keeping secrets from Max or my brother was only asking for trouble so Pops let me shine. We got back to the Giovani guest house i knew Jax had a lot of questions. We both made our way to the kitchen only to be greeted by Mass and Cyrus, I rolled my eyes when I saw them. Jax greeted Mass, I thought to myself of course they knew each other, then Mass introduced Cyrus. 

I sat listening to their bullshit for a while and then excused myself heading to the shower, before I left Jax stopped me "Izzy do you own anything casual and girly like a dress" he joked "I do and I bet you do too" I said smiling sweetly, Cyrus was trying to hide his laugh while Mass glared. "Little sisters such smart arses" Jax said grinning "Any way smart arse put one on I'm taking you out". "Big brothers so bossy and such arse holes" I said looking at Mass knowing dam well he knew my double meaning.

I went and took a shower and put on a Robe, I was going through my bag trying to find a dress,  Cyrus walked into my room and threw a dress on the bed " Here I had Mother send one over" "Why are you being nice Cyrus?". "I am not being nice I am following Dads orders". "I am not about to go through another 40 lashes for any girl no matter how Hot" he responded "So your ass got beaten, well I can't lie you deserved that s**t". I said giving Cyrus a show as I pulled the dress over my head. Cyrus grabbed me and started to kiss my neck like a man possessed. "Hey! what happened to 'You wouldn't get another 40 lashes' I said as I pushed him  off with my eyebrow raised and my arms crossed over my chest.

"F u c k Izzy you just showed me what I am missing I changed my mind Dad can fucken whip me forever, I am going to have you" he replied as he walked towards me again. just before he approached me the door opened and Jax and Mass walked in. "You ok Izzy" Jax asked looking like he was going to rip Cyrus's head off. "I am sweet good old Cyrus here brought me one of his dresses to wear do you like it" I said twirling. Jax laughed loud "Cyrus I could so see you in that dress the color would suit" Jax joked as he and I continued to laugh. In frustration Cyrus left, but noticed Mass wasn't leaving. F U C K  I thought to myself. 

"So Izzy, Massimo has asked to join us he's bringing his girl, hope you don't mind" Jax asked. "Of course i fucken mind the guy is an a s s hole" I replied. "Izzy be nice, do you always just say what you think" he said chuckling "Yup and if I must I'll put up with him but I can't promise to be nice", Mass was shooting daggers but I was so use to it by now he had no affect on me. I put my hair up into a high ponytail slipped on my combat boots and met Jax, Mass and Chloe who must have just arrived outside.

"Hi Chica" I said with a grin "My name is Chloe" she said in an irritated tone. "I know,  but Chica is better" I replied with a chuckle "Izzy behave" Jax whispered. "Your no fun" I said pouting. "So Where are we going?" I asked "I've hired out the amusement park in town, I always wanted to take a younger sibling and now I can" Jax chuckled. " Dude I am 18 like really?" I responded. Jax just smiled at me "Yes really". We arrived at the park and there were men in black every where, but other than them and the people who worked there the place was empty.

Jax had literally hired the entire park. I was actually excited I had never been to an amusement park before. I made my way over the roller coaster "come on" I said pulling Jax, he laughed at my childish behavior. Chloe didn't like heights so she refused to come on the ride, So I had to sit in between Jax and Mass. When the ride ended we got off "Best fucken thing ever" I yelled.

"Izzy you have never been to an amusement park before have you" Jax asked a little surprised "Nope". Chloe got to pick the next ride and of course she chose the boring carousel, I rolled my eyes as Jax chuckled at me. Chloe and Max shared a love seat while Jax and I ran around on the carousel trying to make it fun, we finally settled on horses side by side and just used the time joking and laughing, actually I was mocking Chloe and he thought I was funny. 

We got off the Carousel and Chloe kept complaining about being hungry, Jax and Mass went to find food and I was left with Chloe. We sat in silence then I heard a commotion the men in black all ran to where it sounded like a fight had broken out, leaving Chloe and I by ourselves. 4 big a s s dudes approached us "Take the one in the yellow she is Massimo's girl and just kill the other" one of the dudes said. They were here to take Chloe obviously cos my dress was sky blue with floral patterns.

I shoved Chloe behind me "What's this, are you going to try fight us baby your feisty I like it" The leader dude asked. "Nah I don't fight P U S S Y's I just kill them" and with that they began to quickly approach us even more pissed off. I pulled my knives out of my boots I let two go they went straight into the throats of the two guys in the front, I turned and threw another two achieving the same result. All for men fell to the ground now choking on their own blood, Chloe was crouched down with her eyes closed and her hands over her ears. I walked over to the dudes I just killed to pull my knives out of there throats, slicing into their throats as I pulled them out to make sure they were dead. 

I wiped my knives on my dress that was already covered in blood then walked over to Chloe trying to calm her down.  Mass and Jax and the men in black showed up looking a little disheveled also covered in blood. Jax looked at the scene in front of him "Izzy did you do this?" he asked I couldn't  help but be sarcastic "Nah it was Chloe" I said as I pointed at her still freaking out on the ground. Jax grinned with pride while Mass took Chloe in his arms trying to sooth her. 

"Who are they?" I asked "The Russians" Jax responded "We don't know what they were after though" Jax responded "They were here to get Chloe, That dead fucker with the scar over there said they were taking her because she was Massimo's girl" I replied. Mass looked at me with a death glare "What that's what he said" I replied wanting to punch Mass's face.

"Chloe is already traumatized you could have fucken waited to tell us" Mass hissed " F U C K up Mass she heard it with her own ears already". I spat. Jax looked at Mass and I "Actually Mass Izzy just saved your girl, You now owe her a debt". We left the amusement park adrenaline still pumping through me. The reality Hit me I had just made my first kills.
