A long time ago there were 3 brothers, Rozario, Santiago and Valentino. Their last name is unknown but the fact that they were related is, well, even then this was kept a secret from the world.
All 3 brothers wanted the same thing: Power, wealth an...

Leo's Pov:
Dinner started slowly. No one spoke, only the random murmuring coming from Aria who was still decidedly asleep.
Theere was also the odd scraping of the knives and forks against the plates. No one spoke a word, which was fine with me, however Aiden Rousseau just had to do the opposite of everything I wanted.
"So," He began "I've been wanting to ask. Now what exactly brings you here? In such a hurry might I add?"
He quirked an eyebrow up at both Chase and I. I could feel Chase's eyes on me. He wanted me to take the bait and start talking. Though seeing as he hasn't spoken to me once the whole day, he was going to have to talk to me to get me to talk.
That was how it was going to work.
So we both remained silent. Almost like a silent war between us. refused to talk and he refused to ask me to explain.
"Well. Thank you so so much for your answers." Aiden sarcastically sighed and speared through another carrot.
I noticed that Aiden didn't seem to eat much, in fact he rather reminded me of Cardan. I felt flicker of pity for him but I knew that for someone like Aiden, he treated sympathy like a taunt. So I pushed the feeling down. at least for now he didn't deserve that.
"If you tell me why you were in the graveyard with my sister then I'll tell you why we are here." Chase finally broke out.
Aiden darkly chuckled. "Now what have I told you about calling Aria your sister?"
"You don't think that I don't blame myself for this?" Chase slammed his fork down on the table.
"No, No I do not think that you fucking blame yourself for this. Because I can see it. You think that if you come in now and act like her older brother she's going to forgive you, well your fucking right, but that is because that's who she is. Aria forgives easily." Aiden scoffed.
"Bullshit." Chase spat "Your doing the exact same thing, pretending like you fucking care for her, from what I've heard you haven't even seen her in 4-5 years. You didn't even tell us that Aria was going to be sold of to your older brother when she turned 18."
"Sold when she was 18?" Aiden's gaze flickered from me to Chase. "Is that what she told you?"
I could feel Chase get cold around me, hell even I felt my heart falter a little.
"What the fuck do you mean Aiden." I hollowly let out.
"The contract that was made-" He stopped talking shaking his head looking at both of us, his face wracked with fury.
"What. What was it." Chase's breathing quickened.
"The contract meant that Aria was Adrien's property forever. There was no age restrictions. It meant that Aria was his." Aiden clenched his jaw.
