Valentina met up with her brothers she had wanted to see them before she disappeared without a trace. It only seemed right she started here with them after all. "I'll meet you guys later."

"See you at home, Val."

"See ya. Love you, guys." She turned and walked off knowing everything was about to change. 

--

She pulled up to the meeting spot, getting off her bike and walking to the bridge where Emilio was waiting for her.

Emilio was still confused about the nature of what was going on. He showed up with no further information of what was happening. "How can I be of service?"

Valentina took a breath this wasn't easy to explain but it had to be done or else. "I need you to help me disappear."

"Why?" Emilio asked crossing his arms over his chest. He wasn't an idiot she was the newest member of the Moretti-Romano family her disappearing would cause a lot of pain and war. Which wasn't going to be good for anyone.

"To protect my unborn niece or nephew." Valentina admitted. When it came to family she was going to do whatever it took to keep them safe. 

Emilio dropped his arms now all his attention on her. He knew his cousin was literally having a baby with Valentina's brother. "Whose threatening Sofia?"

"Can you do it or not?" Valentina needed to know before she could say anything else. There was a lot riding on this after all. 

"I can." Emilio confirmed. He told her he would help when she needed it and he had meant it.

"Good." Valentina nodded letting out a breath. She was happy that was another piece of the puzzle she didn't have to worry about. 

"You lose your tail." Emilio asked. 

Valentina nodded. "Yeah, they don't know where i am."

"Good. First thing first: bike over the bridge." Emilio stated. If he was going to make sure that she disappeared off the face of the planet the first thing that had to be done was making sure they thought she died.

"What?" Valentina asked confused. 

Emilio smirked he knew as violent as she was and as bad of a family as she was from yet the thought of that left her confused. "To do this right, you need them to worry about you; bike over the bridge. They'll file you as missing, and they'll start to look for you, but they won't find you cause we're going to make sure of it." 

"Alright, you do it."

Emilio nodded before taking the bike and pushing it into the water. Before turning back towards her now it was time for them to get to work. "Let's get you out of here."

"Where are you going to take me?" Valentina asked. She knew she needed to make sure that she couldn't be found.

"My place." Emilio answered. A place where they wouldn't come looking for them at. 

"Don't you live with your parents?" Valentina asked. He was a highschooler after all. 

"Yeah, and other times i live in my aunt's old condo." His aunt who was also Sofia's mother. And she didn't want anything to do with that place and wouldn't come there for any reason. 

"Alright."

--

Emilio opened the door for Valentina letting her walk inside. Before following her in. Valentina turned back towards him confused. "Where are we?"

"My aunt's old Condo. She left it to Sofia and me, but my little cousin wanted nothing to do with this place after the death of her mother. She signed it over to me." Emilio explained. He knew because of that Sofia would never come here looking for any reason cause this place holds to many memories for her. 

"And this is where you're going to hide me out," Valentina confirmed. She was happy it was close to where her family was so she could still keep an eye on them. 

"No, but first we need to talk about how this is going to work." Emilio wanted one thing and he would make sure this thing went down without any mistakes. That everything happened right and that she stayed out of sight. "One condition." 

"Of course. " Valentina sighed; she knew that he was going to want something from her and she wanted to get that out of the way first. "What's your condition?"

He wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her against him. He had an eye on her for a while, and if he had the chance to get her he was going to take it. "You are mine."

"Me, that's all." Valentina asked, surprised. She was suren he was going to ask for nearly anything else. 

"That's all." Emilio answered looking down at her.

"Deal." Valentina nodded.

"Now, wanna explain why my cousin is being threatened?" Emilio had promised to take care of his cousin and part of that was making sure she was safe and that nothing happened to her.

"Everyone thought my dad was dead when he was in the coma. Only people who knew the truth were my mom and my uncle Damien." And of course her selfish mom had made plans from the grave in case Elena ever got the chance to get her. And now she had to deal with those consequences. "My mom wanted to make sure that even if anything happened to her, Elena wouldn't ever get me."

"A last fuck you from the grave. Got it. How does Sofia tie into this?" He got that Alyssa wanted to make sure that nothing went wrong, but it didn't explain this. 

"She left custody of me to my ex-stepfather. He would have been able to trade me to them for lots of money. And now because they figured out a way, he's pissed. So he found the only one he could use to hurt me." Because obviously she wasn't worried about her brothers mother father or cousins because they could all protect herself. But Sofia and her unborn niece or nephew now that was something they could use. 

"Sofia and the baby."

"He said he could get the doctor to easily slip her an abortion pill. My brother and Sofia are so attached to this baby already i couldn't let it happen." Valentina explained. She loved her brother to much to try and let them get away with this. 

"Alright."

"So how do i disappear again?" Valentina could tell he had an idea  and she was going to need to be in on it.

"First you need a makeover."  Emilio said letting go of her waist.

"Why?" Valentina asked confused.

"Cause it's always easier to hide in plain sight." Emilio explained. And if he hid her in plain sight they could make sure that Sofia was ok.

"Ok."

He grabbed a strand of her hair he knew changing it was going to be a huge part in changing who she was. "How healthy is your hair?"

"Healthy, why?" Valentina asked. 

"Cause we have to do a complete 180. Your hair, your makeup, your outfits if you want to hide in plain sight, then they are all going to have to change."

"Everything." Valentina asked. 

"You have to be completely unrecognizable; your personality needs to change too. Voice so they can't identify you." And if they could then it was going to be a problem for them and become a bigger threat for Sofia. 

"Fine."
