Unique POV
Albany, New York🌆

I placed my phone in my pocket watching my adopted mother play with the twins. My father was too busy watching tv and eating some food my mama made him.

Kentrell wanted me to talk about this with my parents. But I didn't know how to confront them.

"Mommy.." I called for her.

"Yes," she answered.

I swallowed a lump thinking about the next thing to say. I can't believe I didn't notice how my fake mama was lighter than me. My sisters were light skinned too. My father was a fair skinned Chinese man. So yeah I mostly had his features but not his skin tone though.

But what I didn't have was Cherie's own. She was beautiful but I never looked like her. I don't hate her anymore. She's the one who was there for me when I was a baby, not Alevtina, my real mother.

I just want to know why she's trying to kill me and why she gave me up.

"I know about Alevtina," I said to her.

Everything got quiet in the room but the twins.

"What did you say?" My father asked, pausing the show he was watching.

"H-how-?" Cherie was going to speak until I cut her off.

"My husband told me," I started to say.

"Wait Israel?" My father asked me coming closer.

"No Kentrell" I showed them my ring and they grasped at it.

"We wanted to tell you ourselves! He had no right to do that!" Tyrus said angrily and I frowned at Cherie for agreeing with him.

"He had every right to say it before you guys did! He's the one that's been killing every Russian man that my real mother sent after me! You guys had no right to say he shouldn't do that. He's the one that's been there for me more than anyone else. It even cost our damn relationship" I shouted at them.

"Can you take the babies to their playroom?" Cherie told the maid. I rolled my eyes watching the maid take the twins away.

"Why is he not here with you so I can punch him my damn self" Tyrus threatens.

"Tyrus, calm down!" Cherie screamed at him.

"I will like to see you try to hit him" I threatened back.

"We all need to talk like adults!" Cherie said to us.

"Just tell me why you guys didn't protect me! Tell me Tyrus why didn't you tell me. Cherie wasn't my real mother. I felt like this was a lie the whole time! How come my sisters knew the truth but me? And the family" I asked them.

"Because we had to hide it so your mother wouldn't find out we kept you alive" Cherie stated making me confused.

"I don't understand," I said, shaking my head.

"Alevtina and I were from two different Mafia families that didn't get along at all. At that time they were beefing like crazy. Me and your mother weren't on speaking terms at all. One night I went to a bar and I saw Alevtina there. I never knew her at all. At that time I was young and stupid and wanted to get some heat off" I listened to my dad already know where he was going with this.
