My Bloody Revenge novel Chapter 10

"You missed a spot whore."

"Where?"

"Here!" Jenny shouts kicking Lyra in the stomach. "Oh, wait, it was only you."

Cradling her aching side, she closes her eyes tightly to prevent tears from falling down while

hearing Jenny laugh as she walks away. As soon as the pain subsided, she quickly scrubs the

floor and proceeds to the kitchen where she needs to make dinner for the family.

"I think you missed another spot." Jenny says and kicks the bucket making all the water splash

on the floor.

"Good one sis." Ben says as he walks into the kitchen.

"Another spot missed!" Jenny cheers and delivers another kick. "My bad. It was just you, again.

Not easy to be ugly is it."

With both her siblings laughing at her there is not a chance to keep the tears in. Ben is four

years older and supposed to be the big brother who protects but to him, only Jenny is seen as his

sister. Lyra mops up as much water as she can before swiping everything dry with a rag.

"Let's leave the looser alone or else we all starve to death." Ben says and drags Jenny away.

Looking at the clock she washes her hands and quickly shops the vegetables and puts it in a pan

then adds the stuffed chicken, she thankfully prepared yesterday, on top and then in the oven.

Afterwards the potatoes need to be peeled and put on the stove. Next is preparing the gravy.

Time flies away and soon she hears the front door slam shut followed by her parent’s voices.

"We're home!"

She listens as Ben and Jenny are greeted with hugs and kisses. They talk among themselves

about their day but no one pays any attention to her and no matter how used to it she is it still

stings.

"Is the dinner done?"

"Five more minutes on the chicken. Table is already set and everything is there except the

chicken."

a red dress that sat a bit too tight for her taste and it only reached mid-thigh. Uncomfortable

but without any other choice she steps back out and walks into the dining room.

"Now you look like the whore you are." Jenny taunts with crude and boisterous laugh.

"Good choice darling daughter." Tiana praises clapping her hands.

Both Ben and her father only nods or stares without saying anything.

"You should feel grateful that we let you join us this evening." her dad, Mike, says. "If all goes

well everyone will be happy by the end of this evening."

Not following she looks from her dad to her mom, both looking like million-watt lights.

Something is about to happen and if past experience is anything to go by, it won't be pretty.

Hearing the doorbell everyone, including her, walks to the hallway. Mike opens the door and

greets a man who looks to be a few years older. His bland, blue, eyes sweeping over everyone

but halts at the sight of her.
