~ One Year Later ~~
It is the night of the twins' first birthday. A lot has happened over the past year. With the twins being born. The German Mafia became more persistent, luckily they were sloppy and desperate and we were able to completely take out the Germans. My boys are my life, but my two girls are my world. Lorenzo and Elizabeth was a blessing in disguise. They are both so happy and have the whole family wrapped around the tiny fingers. Especially Elizabeth with my father. That man is the scariest person I have ever known and every time he is with Elizabeth he lights up. Recently I have been going through the contract with the English trying to find a loophole. I am currently in my office trying to find something when my Mia Cara walks in as beautiful as ever. She comes and sits on my lap.
"My love is late, let's go to bed."
"Of course Mia Cara, I am just trying to find something for our daughter and the English I'm sorry I lost track of time."
"Is it really the worst thing if this contract goes through? We know the Grey's and they are raising a great son. Do I want my daughter to be married off, no. However, we just need to make sure that the man she marries will love and protect her. There are arranged marriages everyday in this life. I may not have been born in the mafia but I have learned and seen this life we just need to be open and honest with our daughter."
"I know, I am just stressed. I do not want my baby girl to be married and grown up."
"Yes my love, but she is one today, live in the present and do not worry about the future because I know with my whole heart you will protect our family no matter what."
I see as my husband's shoulder relaxes that I have won. At Least for now because these Giovanni men are stubborn as hell especially when it comes to the Giovanni women.
As we get up and walk out of the office we start to hear Lorenzo crying which is odd because he rarely ever cries. We look at each other and start watching the younger twins' room. As we get closer and closer the hairs on the back of my neck stand up and I start to feel that something is wrong.
My husband opens the door and grabs our son and he starts to calm down. I go over to our daughter's crib and what I see is something I never thought I would go through.
................... Numb
..................... All I feel is numb.
I hear nothing except for silence and see nothing except my daughter's empty crib and blood. I slowly hear my husband voice shouting and ordering people around.
Then next thing I know everything goes black.
