Mafia Princess

Chapter 28

Adrianna's POV:

I glance around my room, it's been a few days and I am healing nicely. My family is trying to talk to me about what happened but I am ignoring them to the best of my ability. My father hasn't even apologized yet.

I glance at the photo of me with Sarah, Dan, and Charlie and my mind goes back to that day.

"Hi dad" I smile up at Dan as he sits on my bed.

"Hey baby, how are you feeling today: he asks as I sit up slightly more. I recently just got back from a mission when I found a baby boy, he looked about 3 years old and the moment I bent down to ask if he was ok he clung to me.

"I'm ok, is he?" He nearly got shot upon leaving the burning building yet my body shielded him and I got shot instead. Right in the shoulder.

Dan nods his head and leaves my room after making sure for the millionth time that I am ok. A soft pitter-patter of feet starts getting louder as they reach my room and a cute head pops around the door.

"Hi, Anna" he speaks up and a cute voice as he walks towards my bed trying to climb up. I giggle slightly and lift him up to my lap ignoring the pain that shoots up my arm as I tuck him in my bed with me.

"Hi Charlie, how are you?" I ask, after getting him out I found out his parents dropped him there, there was no way in hell I was giving him back to them so Sarah and Dan adopted him. He seems to love it here and he certainly loves me, even if he's only been here 2 days.

"I'm gwood, can we pwease go to the pawk," he asks attempting a full sentence, his voice and puppy eyes make me instantly nod my head, and he runs out the room probably to go tell Dan.

I have just made a name for myself with Nico and Jay, we are known as the devil's triplets. No one knows who we are but they fear us. It's been a year since we got out and we are now all 14. It's coming up to my 15th birthday and part of me is happy, a happiness that I have rarely felt in my life. They aren't as close with Dan as I am but they see him as a father figure. Currently however they wanted a little break so they went to explore the mountains.

I change and go downstairs to see a smiling Sarah next to a bouncing Charlie, he can hardly contain his excitement.

We made it to the park and started running around playing IT before we went to get some food, a picnic Sarah made. We were all sitting and laughing like a family should and someone took a photo.

They gave it to us and I loved it. My family.

I am brought out of my thoughts as I look down now seeing I have dialed his number. I press call with a shaky hand and bring the phone to my ear.

He answers almost immediately and part of me wants to cry, cry my heart out about how it's all my fault. How guilty I am but I can't, his voice stops me.

"I got footage of it, baby it's not your fault and I still love you" many emotions are in his voice and break me slightly hearing the hurt, the sadness.

"I promise I will come to see you soon, I love you so much Dan" I listen to his reply, and even though this is a solemn call a slight smile appears on my face.

"No one will know, I can sneak out"

Aiden's POV:

I make my way over to the Costello household as I want to see my beautiful girlfriend. She has changed me for the better even if she doesn't know it.

I walk in and greet her family, she seems to be on rocky terms with them and I understand why. She explained slightly what happened when she was there but I could tell she left a lot out, she was keeping something from me. From all of us.

I made my way up the stairs heading for her room when I stopped, I could hear her voice on the other side. She sounded happy, well, happier than she had been recent.

"I love you so much Dan" I froze at that, part of me wasn't going to eavesdrop on them but I wanted to know who she was talking to.

"No one will know, I can sneak out" she spoke again. After hearing no guy's voice in her room I only had one conclusion, she was cheating.

My anger rose in me as I made my way out of the house ignoring the shout of everyone and went straight to the club closest to me. Luckily it was one I owned so I got in with no problems.

I went towards the bar and ordered a few shots allowing them to sink in making my mind slightly fuzzy to remove the memory. I kept drinking until a girl approached me.

"Hey handsome" her voice was horrible and at this point, all I wanted was to go home to the girl I loved and kiss her but the memory of her telling some fucker she would sneak out and loved him made me hate her.

Part of me wants to let her explain why she is cheating if she's been in love with me but the other part just wants to forget her so that's what I decide to do.

The alcohol is taking over my body so I grab the girl's hand in front of me and drag her out of the club towards my apartment.
