I went to my gym to clear my head, but I couldn't concentrate so off I went to find lexi, I wanted to set her straight fill the gaps she was unsure of, I wanted to tell her she wasn't working for a mafia member, that's not what I am my family were, well charlottes married to Tom who I gave my fathers mafia to so charlottes a mafia queen but that's absolutely nothing to do me, I have pretty much no idea what goes on apart from the odd drug shipment when it's worth while, she's my employee I shouldn't feel the need to explain myself but I guess I better had.

I headed to her office but she wasn't there, I checked the kitchen not there and coraline said she hadn't seen her, I remembered she loved to read, so I headed to the library.

I noticed the door to my back room was open, how? I thought I'd locked it. So I made my way to that room my blood ran cold when I seen lexi reading everything, I screamed at her to leave get out she's fired, I'm angry I didn't mean it but I think I scared her.

The thing is nobody's seen these newspaper clippings, the mafia bought out All the rights to the media companies for that particular story. I managed to get my hands on this only copy before they printed anymore, so only close friend's and family know what happened.

I don't want lexi to feel sorry for me, now she knows the reason for my recluse behaviour, bad things happen to those who get close. I hate to think about the way my family, my wife my unborn baby were murdered, and yes they were definitely murdered and one day I'll solve who did it and I'll kill them but for now I have no proof, it's been 10 years and I can't let it go, not yet, not ever.

My head won't shut up, it screams for me to have lexi. But it screams that I'm not good enough, the haunting memories of the fire consume me, my head is not a fairy tale it's a dark hole which I jump into head first.
