"Andro, mio ​​​​caro. Come here, meet you fratello , Damon . "

When Renato (reborn again, given another chance-clan killer!betrayer! why him?)  looked at his baby brother for the first time, he fell in love ( --again ) . He glanced at his mamma who was watching them indulgently and gazed at his baby brother with awe.

"I will love you always" he repeated the last words he said to his brother in his last life and the first promise he made to his new brother.
"I will protect you always, mio ​​​​fratello piccolo." he swore, eyes solemn with resolve.
(he remembered another life, another promise, he made to his otouto . A promise for which he became a clan-killer .)
( 'I will love you always.')
(He will do anything for his foolish little brother(s), anything . )

Uchiha was the clan that loved like no other, they loved with their whole heart-- obsessively, desperately, and deeply. They loved and loved and loved until they couldn't anymore. Itachi knew this intimately, knew it because his heart has burned too. Sasuke was his life, his everything, his brother, his person . If Sasuke felt cold he would have set aflame the world to keep him warm, he had killed his whole clan to protect his brother and had become something he hated all for him, his otouto. 

Itachi had lived a life of remorse and pain, and died with a smile on his face. It should have been the end. But it wasn't. 

He woke up again. Reborn in a world so different from his own, a world where 5-year-old prodigies were not carted off to war, where walking on water was a miracle, where people didn't breathe out fire, and children didn't pick up a shuriken as a toy, a world where shinobi didn't exist outside of fictional tales, a world of civilians.

It was surreal to grow up in a household where the lady of the house was not a deadly kunoichi, whose expertise with the knife left people gulping in fear. He missed his Kaa-chan ( the one he killed ), her laugh, and her unbreakable facade. He couldn't bring himself to see her in Lily Salvatore, the woman who had birthed him in this lifetime, he couldn't bring himself to let someone take place of Mikoto, couldn't love her for that place in his heart was already taken.

Giuseppe Salvatore was a harsh and demanding man, Renato observed. He smelled of alcohol, cigarettes, and regrets. His eyes were hard, his words even more. He demanded respect where there was none to found, he oozed arrogance with every step he took , every word he spoke. He believed in the superiority of founding families. ( Fugaku once did too, before they were nothing but ashes in the wind. ) But he loved his family, Itachi could tell. How his eyes softened when he looked at his son, how he laughed when with his wife.

Sometimes when his new father( never tou-san ) thought he was asleep told him morbid tales of blood-sucking monsters, witches who deserved to be burned, and how the Salvatores were heroes for killing those abominations. Unknowing of the power their bloodline carried.

When Damon Salvatore was born in storm, with eyes the colour of blue ink and hair black the exact shade Sasuke had, the cold grief in his heart thawed a little. He found his peace again, in the little giggles, hero worship, and innocent gummy smile.
He had vowed then, that this brother would not suffer as Sasuke did, he will be happy. And Renato--- well Renato will make sure of it, no matter what.
