Her Secrets

62

And so I told him.

Everything.

How I recovered a deleted footage of Elizabeth and Luigi talking about Thea. How she told him how much close Alessio and Thea had gotten. But Elizabeth never planned anything with Luigi— she was only giving him information. Because she knew that once Luigi'd be freed, he'd go after Thea for what Alessio did to him and that was exactly what that old bitch wanted.

I told Sean how Elizabeth bribed a few men to free Luigi which they did without telling him who helped him thus keeping her safe. Of course.

Alessio never wondered how the fuck Luigi managed to free himself which now that I think of it, was pretty stupid. How could he not?

I also told Sean that I knew of what Elizabeth was planning. I knew she was making Thea a target and so I knew that she had to get her out of there before Elizabeth did anything.

So... weeks before Elizabeth freed Luigi, I was taking my revenge— like always on those who wronged me in the past. There was this girl— Matteo's daughter. She and I were what one would call friends once. But she betrayed me. She was a backstabbing bitch. Her father knew that I was the one killing some of his men to he made her befriend me so she could kill me but of course, I was smarter.

I never fully trusted her.

And I was not the sanest person out there.

She knew what was coming for her once I told her that I knew everything when we were 'hanging out' as 'friends'.

I gave her a choice.

Either she'd be tortured and kill by me and she was scared since she knew I was truly going to do it— or she'd get a plastic surgery done and act as someone else for a few hours.

Or...

I'd kill her Fiance although I was not going to actually do it. I also told her that I would tell Matteo about him knowing full well that he would kill the fiance himself. She loved her fiance— that Brent guy and didn't want to lose him so she did as she was told. I did take a picture of her face before she underwent that plastic surgery so I would be able to send to Matteo to piss him off— of course I did after editing the picture a little. I was good at that.

After the surgery, she didn't look exactly like Thea, there were some very remarkable differences but I knew it was going to work because Alessio would be too busy worrying for her safety to take a good look at her face. I tried my best to make her look like Thea though.

Anyway, after that, I sent Thea a message through some fake number and told her to meet me at some park. I wasn't sure she'd show up but she did. I told her not to tell Alessio or anyone. I knew she'd try to find things about me before coming because she was not exactly dumb. And when she came without anyone following her or with her, I knew she found out some interesting stuff.

I then told her every single thing— about Luigi, Elizabeth, what they were planning, Matteo's daughter... literally everything.

She was hesitant at first. She didn't want to let someone else just walk into death like that but I assured her that Matteo's daughter was going to be okay.

I did promise her that she'd return home safe.

But she didnt. How was I supposed to know that she was dumb— 

I told her to keep going no natter what or her fiance would die— she had to keep up with the acting even if she happened to die and I was glad when she did although it was kind of sad as well. I didn't mean for her to die. But well... she was not the best person out there. She was involved in some really bad shit which included child trafficking so her death was kinda well deserved.

I don't know what I would've done had she not keep up with the acting. It's crazy what people are willing to do for the people they love— and completely stupid as well.

I convinced Thea to come and stay with me for a while until I find a way to reveal Elizabeth's true face since that old bitch was working in cahoots with the other mafias the whole time, giving them information about Alessio's mafia. Alessio had the Spanish, the French and the Mexican to deal with. If they were to find out that Thea was still alive, god knew what they'd do. So I made sure to keep it hidden.

I was going to take down them one by one then finally, she'd be free. Because Thea was not just anybody. That woman was one of the most important person in the criminal organisation. Her death was useful to me. I needed her to die so that the other mafias would lay off Alessio for she was the only reason they were after him; each for different reasons.

Matteo and Joseph needed her signature to finalise an alliance between his mafia and the Mexican otherwise the alliance would've never been truly valid since she was the true leader of the mafia although it was almost extinct. But they found a way to validate it nonetheless. I didn't know Luigi had a son.

Anyway, Luigi wanted to kill her for what Alessio did to him and also because he had always hated her.

Elizabeth wanted her dead to ruin Alessio's happiness.

"I didn't know what to do so I did the only thing I could think of at that time. I couldn't tell Alessio... I had a feeling that he wouldn't believe me over his mother," I spoke up, breaking the silence that settled between me and Sean, "and I don't really care what happened— all I know is that I saved your sister and my brother... and possibly everyone else."

Although they did go through heartbreak over Thea's death but that's alright. They'll get over it soon.

"So... my sister is alive?" Sean asked, hope clear in his eyes. I nodded, "yeah, she is very much alive."

A/N

I really hope that made sense. If I didn't please tell me, I'll have to think of a whole other reason. I just wanted Thea to be alive because I have plans for her for the fourth book and it's gonna be interesting as hell so yeah.
