Lissy Romano

I woke up in the middle of the night because my phone dinged. Dinged like super loudly.

I took my phone from my nightstand and when I looked at my phone the text message I received was so unexpected...

This is your godfather. I'm waiting for you outside the gates. Come quickly, Elizabeth. Don't tell anyone.

I furrowed my eyebrows and I sat up. I didn't understand why would my godfather text me at night? And why would he call me by my full name? He called me Betty and only Betty.

It doesn't make any sense. And I didn't want to leave my house to go to him like that. The reason I don't want to do something like that is because my brothers already have a hard time trusting me.

I stood up and put on Gio's hoodie, because it was cold in here. And I took my phone with me, I have to show it to Vincenzo.

I made my way to Vincenzo's bedroom and knocked on his door. When he didn't answer I opened the door and then I saw that he wasn't in his bed.

I walked downstairs, Jax was walking behind me. I was still in my pajama shorts and my legs were freezing. I don't know why it's so cold in here.

I made my way to Vincenzo's office and I knocked on the door. After a second I heard his deep, but soothing voice. "Who's there?" he asked confused

"It's me. Lissy." I said loudly so he would hear me

"Lissy? Come inside." he said confused and I opened the doors

"Why are you up? Why aren't you asleep?" he asked and I bit my lower lip awkwardly

"I didn't want to disturb you. I woke up, because I got this text message." I said and his face expression turned from confused to curious, Jax started to bark

"Shush, Jax. Everyone is sleeping." I said as I looked at him

"Show me that message." he said and I handed him my phone, after he looked at it, concern and anger washed over his face

"Go to your room, baby." he said and my eyebrows knitted together

"But..." I started and he cut me off

"Come here." he said and I walked up to him

"Thank you for showing me. It was really smart, baby. I will keep your phone tonight. Go to sleep, okay?" he asked and I nodded my head quickly

He kissed my cheek and I walked upstairs, Jax walked behind me. I didn't understand what was happening, but I didn't want to go to my room. I didn't want to be alone right now.

So I walked into Giovanni's room instead. He was sleeping so peacefully and I felt really shitty that I had to wake him up, but I still did it.

"Gio. Gio...wake up." I said quietly, Jax licked Gio's face and he opened his eyes immediately

"Lissy?" he asked as he saw me, he rubbed his eyes afterwards

"Can I sleep here tonight?" I asked as I looked at him with hope

"Sure, sweetheart. What happened?" he asked softly
