ADRIANA'S POV:

"Are you guys the Italian Mafia?" I said in a serious tone.

They all looked at me with shock on their faces not expecting me to be so straightforward.

The first one to speak up was Armando, my dad, "What are you talking about where is this coming from?" He said in a slightly higher-pitched voice.

I looked at him with a serious kind of annoyed face as my eyes dark, "Don't lie to me or this won't end well for any of us and I won't go home with you." I said looking him straight in the eyes as all the boys and my Mother look at me in complete shock.

My dad turned around looking at all of them as they all nodded like they were talking through their eyes.

"Sit down we need to all have a talk."

I sat up in the hospital bed as they all sat around me staring at me.

"We don't want you to fear us or think bad of us but-" He started to say os I interrupted him, "I never said I was afraid of you guys I was abused by my Aunt for fourteen years and locked in a basement I think I can take you guys being in the Mafia," I said surprising my dad a little.

Little did they know I had my own gang which I was the leader of and knew all about the business.

I looked at all of them to see My dad clenching his fists turning his knuckles white, My mom on the verge of tears, and my brothers looking like they are gonna beat the fuck out of someone.

"We're all sorry about what happened to you and we all promise that we will keep you safe and you won't be in danger anymore. and yes we are in the Italian Mafia but we don't want you to worry or be afraid we won't put you in the middle of that business." He said holding my hand.

I smile at all of them saying, " I'm okay you guys being in the Mafia on one condition."

"Yes, anything."

"I don't wanna be in an arranged marriage and please don't pressure me to tell you anything about what I've been through I'll open up eventually but for right now I'm not ready.\

Still holding my hand he gives me a small smile, "First of all there will be no arranged marriages cause you will never be married and Second of all we all understand and won't pressure you or make you feel uncomfortable."

"Thank you," I said grateful and relieved I don't have to talk about my past just yet.

We sat there all in comfortable silence for about thirty minutes and then I finally spoke up. "So when am I going home?"


--- 2 DAYS LATER---

I finally got out of that hospital which I was relieved about cause everything was so white and it smelled like medicine.

We were all currently in the car driving to the house I lived in for most of my life to get all my stuff and get the hell out of there.

All my brothers and my mom were asleep as my dad was driving to the dreadful house. Alessandro was sitting on my right side sound asleep as I was laying on his shoulder and he was laying his head on top of mine. I felt a special connection with him than the others. Don't get me wrong I love all my brothers but I just felt like I understood him better from getting to know them better those two other days in the hospital. I spent all my time getting to know them better I started to grow more comfortable with all of them. 

1 Hour Later:

I woke up to the sound of Alessandro shaking me and trying to wake me up. When I opened my eyes I saw the dreadful house that I was a prisoner in for fourteen years covered in caution tape and police cars in every corner.
