The Truth of Ace

Eight

Ace Rossi

"She's pregnant" I couldn't believe it, I needed a confirmation. But this time as Myles looked at me, he seemed to be facing an inner conflict in his head. Seeming to be holding back in a way unsure of what to say after ending the line

"Myles?" He just stayed silent staring at me

"Ace..." the door flung open with Stefano charging in, the look on his face seemed despicable in a way

I looked back to Myles, I'd never seen fear in his eyes. But now as I look at him, I've never seen him more afraid. He had sweat across his forehead "Myles?"

"I sorted your problem son" I turned back to him as he went over to the leather couch in the corner tossing his gray jacket to the side staring back at me, I felt the tension in the air

"What problem?" Instead of avoiding him as usual I took a seat across from him "I have a job to do dad, I'd like it if you'd find other retirement plans than just harassing your son" he scoffed

"Your fiancé problem"

"How'd she take it? What's her name Cyrus?" He glared at me, but I honestly couldn't care less about this other girl and whatever her name was

"No that girl Madeline, I handled it" with that I froze from just the tone of his voice it hinted harm as he just stared at me cold

'that girl' his words began to echo, she wasn't just some girl, she was the only girl that mattered "What do you mean handled it?" He didn't give any response, just sat still with the same expression leaving me disgusted and now anxious

"What did you do to my wife" he stared at me a proud with a smile growing onto his lips

"I did what needed to be done, but a shame about the baby Ace" with that I threw the glass I had in hand smashing it against his skull followed by his blood trickling beside it as he hissed in pain as I stood over him "I'm not going to ask you again Stefano, what did you do to my wife" he chuckled

A shell of a man underneath me. He meant nothing to me, he was nothing, as I looked into his eyes there was no soul, it was just the devil that sat across from me

As I stepped closer his head tilted up towards me

"I killed her"

I couldn't process his words fully as they left his mouth. I shook my head profusely backing away as I felt my heart rip inside my chest. I felt a pain that was indescribable as my ears began to ring, he sat there across from me smiling

"You wouldn't" he stared at me coldly

"You needed her out of your life Ace-" my hand molded into his face as I brought my knee to his stomach, endlessly punching till he stop groaning in pain and til my hands were bloody and bruised

He killed her

The one love of my life, he killed her. I began to scream, I screamed as my lungs began to hurt

I felt two arms wrap around me, Della's

I shoved her off me and lunged towards him kicking his face in once more leaving him slightly conscious wiping the smirk off
