The Broken Angel & Her Overprotective Brothers

The Silence that had taken over the study room was too much for the poor Mr. Kim to handle.

He just regretted for staying in the room when the boss summoned the Second Young Master early in the morning.

He should have known that him staying behind would only lead to such a situation where his master appeared to be in the mood of killing someone.

Of course, he would not kill his younger brother which meant that Mr. Kim was the only person left in the study to become the victim.

He gulped down his saliva as he watched his boss suddenly standing up from his chair as he glared at Master Rylan.

"What are you talking about? What kind of mark, Rylan?" Kaiden asked his brother as he closed his hands into tight fists.

His heart was about to pop out of his chest in fear of hearing Rylan's reply. 

He had called his brother so early in the morning to tell him not to worry about the council meeting anymore.

He even had a punishment prepared for him. Even though he saved him from the punishment of the council, but since he actually dared to break such an important rule, it was necessary to punish him.

However, he never guessed that in return for his happy news, Rylan would dump a bucket of icy cold water on him.

Kaiden was lost so deep in his thoughts that he did not hear Rylan calling out his name.

"Bro, are you even paying attention to me?" Rylan growled at his brother as he marched closer to his study desk.

Kaiden shook his head once to get a grip on himself before he adjusted his focus on his brother.

"Go on. What were you saying?" He asked as he found his eyes lingering on Rylan's hands to see if he could find any kind of mark.

Rylan just shook his head as he folded up his right sleeve and showed his wrist to his brother.

The moment Kaiden's eyes landed on the design of the mark, he felt his mind and soul relaxing.

It was not a soul mark. The girl still belonged to him. He did not misinterpret his feelings towards her.

Kaiden convinced his soul to calm down as he looked at the mark on Rylan's wrist. It was a guardian mark.

Since his soul was no longer trying to kill him in panic, Kaiden was once again back to his usual cold attitude.

"Are you sure it's her?" He asked as he stopped his fingers from tracing the E pattern that was covering almost all of the mark.

"Of course! I'm damn sure that it's her. It was because of this mark and its constant pestering that I went to the Star Xander Mall yesterday. As if it was telling me that she's going to be in danger. It was even aching the previous night." Rylan immediately replied.

Kaiden was silent as he kept staring at the mark. In reality, he too was taken aback by these revelations.

At first, he thought that he was the only one who had ended up entangled with the Alessandro Princess but now, even Rylan was involved in the mess.

"Why her?" Rylan asked out in frustration as he pulled his sleeve down and covered his mark.

"What do you mean?" Kaiden asked his brother with one of his eyebrows raised high.

"I mean, why her? She's a mortal!" Rylan said with an exasperated tone as he shook his head lightly.

"You mean, she's an Alessandro." Kaiden corrected his brother's statement.

"Yeah, that! She's an Alessandro. Even though our families are no longer blood enemies but that does not mean that we can ever be on one side. Then why do I have to become her guardian spirit?" Rylan asked as he took a seat on one of the chairs sitting in front of the study table.

It was like the Moon Goddess was playing a game with them, a game where they could barely do anything out of the order.

Otherwise, how could both of them end up in a tangled mess with the girl who belonged to their competitor's family?

While one of them had become her guardian spirit, the other one knew that his entanglement with the girl was too deep to be defined in words.

He was her mate!

"So..."

Leo passed a glance towards all of his brothers before returning his attention to his little sister.

He was not sure whether he wanted to laugh at his sister's stupidity or if he should cry for her.

"So in short, all this happened because you thought that the man with silver hair was Rylan?" Crist asked her with uncertainty coating his voice.

When Emily slowly nodded her head in affirmation, she definitely was not expecting her brothers to suddenly burst out into a laughing fit.

A frown appeared on her face as she stared at them, waiting for someone to tell her exactly what made them laugh like that.

"Oh, my....." Leo could not control his laughing and he was almost on the verge of crying because of laughing so hard.

"You are really something, sis," Crist told her as he patted her shoulder lightly while trying his best to not laugh anymore.

However, one look at his baby sister's face and he again lost it. Almost falling from his seat as he buried his face behind Daniel into the cushions.

Emily was no longer staring at them. Now her stare had changed into fiery glares.

She turned her face to look at her eldest brother who was busy on his laptop. He had been in the living room the entire time as she told them everything that happened the previous night.

Not once did he showed any signs that he was listening to her story. If not for the fact that his fingers stopped typing the moment she mentioned the part where one of the attackers planted her against the tree, she would have assumed that he really was not paying attention to her.

But the reality was that he just needed something to distract himself as she told them about everything that happened the previous night.

Daniel noticed the unhappiness that was clearly visible on his sister's face and he immediately asked his brothers to calm down.

Even though he was not as strict and cold as Domenic but his brothers still not dared to take his word lightly and slowly, they all regained control over their laughing.
