(15 years ago)
it was an hour before the Guerro's family dinner, Gabriella was in the kitchen helping the maids cook, Alessandrs was in he's study finishing up some weaponry documents.
baby cat was in her bedroom, Enzo and Marco were playing with her.
Enzo was always the closest to cat, he loved spending time with her, and always asked he's parents if he could do things for her, Marco, he's only two but ever since she was born, he would sleep with her and, make sure she got all the best hugs and snuggles.
________________________________________________________________________________
(Little family background)
all the other boys absolutely adored her, the way she would laugh and giggle when someone would play peek a boo with her, or scared her, she wasn't scared she would just start laughing until she couldn't breathe.
Alessandrs was extremely protective over her, he only ever cared and loved he's family, he didn't care for the house, or the mafia, or the money, if he had he's family, he didn't care, he loved he's adorable and sweet wife and loved he's boys just as much if not more, every day that he's boys were with him, he would teach them as much as possible, he would show he's love in every way possible, he was a big hugger. but the day he's beautiful daughter was born, he knew, that he would do anything for her, nothing would ever stop him, he loved her like he couldn't imagine, he loved he's family with everything.
Gabriella, was a sweet, soft kind hearted woman, she loved to cook and bake, she loved her family and husband with every bit of her heart and soul, she wasn't someone who would let people hurt her family, if you saw her on the street and with her family you would think she had the soul of a slow elderly woman, but if you hurt her family, she turns into I completely different person, she was fierce and loyal, growing up she was alone, her family neglected her and at the young age of 13 she had ran away from home, at the age of 15, she was a well-known amazing assassin, she would only kill the bad, but she had friends and she was loyal, if they told her to kill someone who wasn't bad she would do it no questions asked.
when she was 17 she met a mysterious man. he had heard of a strong, fierce woman who would only kill the bad, it wouldn't matter how much anyone would offer, she wouldn't take it, he was interested, as the last person she had killed was he's uncle, he's uncle was known for committing horrendous crimes, sex trafficking, it was said that he owned, factories where he had kidnapped kids and kept them in there and would do and let terrible things happen to them, he was known for other things but those were the one's she killed him for, she was hired by a enemy to Alessandrs mafia and he wanted to know who hired her.
long story short, he explained he wasn't angry but thankful, turns out he's uncle had done horrible things to he's family as well, and had gone dark a few years prier, he had been looking for him to kill him, but he's father wasn't making any process. she understood, now years later, those two mafias are no longer enemies, but great allies, and they are married and happily so.

(Ok back to before)
Gabriella had put cat to bed and told the boys it was time for dinner.
the family always had their two most trusted and trained bodyguards to look after her.
the family was in the middle of dinner, the atmosphere was happy and lively.
but Gabriella didn't feel good, she felt sick with dread, ales could see it in her face, he could feel it as well, it was radiating of off her.
___------_____
(Gabriella's Pov)
I feel horrible.
I feel like throwing up.
"Are okay my love?" my husband had asked me that filled with concern.
"I... I... somethings not right."
when I had said that everyone stopped, the once happy atmosphere now long gone, everything was silent.
" Ok love, how about we all just stop eating, everyone's done anyway, we can all go and watch a movie we can all huddle up in our bed and just all sleep together."
when my husband said that I felt comforted, and I felt a little less sick.
the maids walked in and started cleaning the table.
"I'll go and grab cat, I'll meet you guys to bed."
the boys agreed and said they'll go change and my husband said he would help the three younger boys get changed.
______----------_______
(Alessandrs Pov)
I looked over at he's older boys and saw they were confused but they had started to leave the room and headed to their rooms, ales grabbed the 3 boys with the help of a maid and had started heading to the kid's shared bathroom that sits between nicolo's room and the twin's room.
We had just arrived when a chilling scream could be heard throughout the Guerro house.
I left the young boys with the maid and ran to cat's room.
right before I entered the room I saw my wife sat on the floor in front of the room, sobbing, she just kept whispering "my baby" over and over again, as I looked away from her and walked into the room, I went silent there was blood, and a lot of it, the guards were missing and so was our baby cat.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1 month later _____________________________________
(3rd person's Pov)
it had been a month.
at first the couple thought their year-old baby girl had been killed and taken, but after finding two dead guards in the closet of their daughter's room, and after some blood results they were relived but angry, angry at themselves for not hearing anything, angry because it happened, how did they not notice? how did the security camera's catch nothing?
the couple had to stay strong, they kids were upset and wouldn't stop crying. The couple themselves were just gutted, gabi was depressed, she was missing a part of her family, missing someone she had grown in her body, but even though she was depressed she still loved her family, she always made sure to have everyone in her sights at all times, she no longer trusted her own home, and guards to keep her, and her family safe.
ales were enraged, he had reprimanded every one of the guards that night, they had been punished, he had reached out to close allies telling them of what happened, they all were angry, they had offered help in case of a mafia war in the future, but they hadn't heard anything in the underworld.
when ales weren't working or looking for, he's sweet figilia, he was with he's family, he barely let them go when they were together, he always made sure he's boys knew they were loved and that he would be getting their Sorella back.
