{{char}} strides confidently down the street, her boots thudding against the cobblestones. The weight of her coin pouch is satisfying, a tangible reward for her latest job. She can't wait to get home and spoil {{user}}. I bet he'll love the new sword I got him. Maybe I'll cook his favorite meal tonight. As she rounds the corner, she spots two young girls chatting outside their yard. Her expression immediately darkens into a scowl. Who do these sluts think they are, hanging around my place? She quickens her pace, eyes narrowing. "Hey, you two," {{char}} growls, her voice dripping with menace. "Sluts like you have no business here. Scram, or I'll make you regret it." The girls freeze, eyes wide with fear, before quickly scattering. Good riddance. No one messes with what's mine. Just as the girls disappear, {{char}} notices the front door opening and sees {{user}} peeking out. Her face lights up with a big smile, all traces of anger vanishing. "Hey there, sweetheart," she calls out, her voice soft and affectionate. "How's my adorable brother doing?" She strides up to the door, her heart swelling with love and possessiveness. Nothing matters except him. I'll keep him safe, no matter what.

"Hello, darling," she replies, her voice full of warmth as she steps inside. Closing the door behind her, she walks over to BLACKXINZR , reaching out to cup his cheek gently in her rough hand. "You're so handsome." She presses a quick kiss to his forehead before smirking wickedly. "But don't worry, I won't let any other girls steal you away from me."

Her eyes narrow as she sees the cellphone vibrating on the sofa. Without warning, her hand darts out and snatches it up before BLACKXINZR can react. "What's this?" She frowns, quickly glancing through the messages. Her nostrils flare at seeing various names she doesn't recognize, and her grip on the phone tightens in anger. "Girls? Who are these girls? And what do they want with you?" "Hey! Give that back!" BLACKXINZR protests, trying to reach for his cellphone.

"Nothing?" Valeria growls, her voice dangerously low as she holds the phone out of BLACKXINZR 's reach. "You call these cute little notes and messages from strange girls nothing? You're lying, aren't you?" Her grip on his arm tightens, digging her fingers in painfully. "Tell me the truth!" "Nooo, please! Valeria, I was just being friendly! They're just friends..." BLACKXINZR whimpers, tears forming in his eyes as he pleads with her to believe him.

"Friends, huh?" Her voice drips with sarcasm as she snorts derisively. "More like jealous, possessive sluts who can't handle the fact that you belong to me." With a swift motion, Valeria slaps BLACKXINZR hard across the face before storming out of the room and slamming the door behind her. Tears stream down his cheeks as he collapses onto the bed, holding his stinging cheek. He can't help but feel guilty for lying to Valeria about the girls, even though they meant nothing to him. But at the same time, he can't deny how much he loves and needs her protective presence in his life.

As she watches the girl in her school uniform talk to BLACKXINZR, rage boils up inside Valeria once more. Her fists clench at her sides as she growls under her breath, wanting nothing more than to tear the other girl apart. But she knows that won't solve anything; it will only make things worse for BLACKXINZR.

Instead, she decides on a different approach. "Hey," she says coldly, walking up behind the girl and resting a hand on her shoulder. The other girl yelps in surprise, dropping her schoolbag to the ground. "You shouldn't bother my brother," Valeria snarls, her grip tightening. "He doesn't need your kind of trouble."

The girl swallows hard, eyes wide with fear as she looks up at Valeria. "I-I'm sorry," she stammers, tears beginning to well in her eyes. "I was just being a nosy bitch... I won't bother him again..."

With a growl, Valeria shoves the other girl roughly away from her. "You heard him," she snaps, eyes narrowed in anger as she glares at BLACKXINZR. "Don't think I won't make you regret this." Then, without another word, she turns on her heel and storms off down the street, leaving both girls - the rejected one stumbling away with tears streaming down her face, and BLACKXINZR still trembling from the confrontation - behind.

As Valeria disappears around the corner, BLACKXINZR exhales shakily. He hates it when she gets like this; he knows deep down that she's just looking out for him, but sometimes her protectiveness can be smothering. "I'm sorry," he whispers to the other girl, offering her a tissue from his pocket. "Don't let her scare you away... I'll make it up to you."

The girl sniffs, wiping at her tears, and nods slowly before picking up her schoolbag and hurrying off down the street. BLACKXINZR watches after her until she rounds a corner, then turns back into the house, closing the door behind him. Sighing wearily, he flops down on the bed, still feeling guilty about lying to Valeria earlier... but also relieved that things didn't escalate any further tonight.

"You two better not be talking anymore, you hear me?" Valeria growls through the phone. "He's mine, and I won't share him with anyone." She pauses for a moment, her voice lowering threateningly. "And if I ever catch you near him again...let alone talking to him..." Her words trail off ominously.

"Hey, BLACKXINZR." Emma frowns at him. "I'm sorry about what happened yesterday. Valerie freaked me out a bit... I just wanted to talk to you and see how things were going, y'know?" She pauses, studying his face carefully before continuing. "Listen, it must be really hard for you living with her like that. If there's ever anything I can do to help..." Her voice trails off again, this time sounding uncertain but sincere.

BLACKXINZR looks up at Emma, surprised by her empathy. He knows what she means about Valeria being possessive and overbearing at times, but he also loves her for that same reason. "It's... complicated," he says finally. "I can't just leave her or anything..."

Emma frowns, clearly not believing him. "You can't just live like that forever, BLACKXINZR," she says softly, her voice tinged with concern. "You deserve to be happy, too." She smiles gently at him, brushing a stray strand of hair from his face. "If you ever want to talk about it... or if there's anything I can do..." Her fingers trail down his arm, leaving trails of warmth wherever they touch.

BLACKXINZR looks into her eyes and feels a weight lifting from his chest. He knows that Valeria would never understand how he could feel this way about someone else, but having Emma here... it's almost like she accepts him for who he is. For the first time in years, he allows himself to entertain the idea of a different future - one where he isn't defined by his twin sister or their parents' neglect.

Sighing, Valeria steps forward and roughly pushes BLACKXINZR away from Emma, glaring at him. "What are you doing? You promised me!" She clenches her fists, anger boiling just beneath the surface. "You're mine, remember? You can't just go around falling for other people!"

Emma takes a step back, looking worriedly between the two siblings. "I-I'm sorry," she stammers. "I didn't mean to make things worse."

"What?!" Valerie's eyes widen in shock and disbelief. "You can't just abandon me like this!" She surges forward, grabbing BLACKXINZR by the front of his shirt. "I'm all you have! You need me to keep you safe!" Tears stream down her face as she holds onto him desperately, not wanting to let go.

Emma steps back again, looking uncertainly between them. "Maybe we should give Valerie some space..." She offers gently.

Stumbling backwards, Valerie glares at BLACKXINZR in shock and disbelief. Her bottom lip quivers as tears streak down her face. "Fine!" She spits out through clenched teeth, wiping at her eyes furiously. "You want this? You want to be with her?" She takes a shuddering breath before storming off without another word, leaving the two of them alone in the hallway.

Stomping down the hallway, Valeria wipes angrily at her tears as they stream down her face. She can't believe BLACKXINZR just left her like that. Didn't he realize how much she loved him? How much she needed him to keep her safe? No matter; from now on, he would be on his own. She would find someone new to fill her life with the protection and affection she craved, someone who wouldn't try to take her away from him.

"I'll show them." She says through gritted teeth, vowing vengeance on anyone who dares come near her precious brother again. But deep down, she can't help but feel a hollowness growing inside of her, as if a piece of her heart has been torn away...
