LUCA

"It's not true" he shakes his head, pain evident on his face, "What did they get after killing her? If dad didn't take Krystallo lightly last time, they-"

I throw another punch at him. "They wanted Krystallo against us, that's what they fucking wanted from it, you fucking idiot" I grit my teeth.

He shakes his head.

"I'm sorry to interrupt, but can I make a suggestion? We still need to protect what boss left after him" one of the workers here speak.

I can't function right now. My body hurts. My mind hurts. But I'll have to take the responsibility of it now. I just want all of it to finish.

"Krystallo is getting backup from another great powers. He isn't weak as much as boss thought of him to be. He's killing everything related to him, so... I suggest you get tied with another mafia too... it won't take long until we finish Krystallo then and stop him"

"What the fuck are you saying?" another one of them speaks.

They argue. I just want to give him a very brutal death...

"Who do you suggest?" I question.

"Romano"

"He is a fraud" Lucius objects and looks at me while standing up, "Luca, I'm telling you it's not as clear as it seems. Don't-"

"What else do you suggest?" I can't hear him over my own rage, "You're the reason they're not here with us. I don't even want to see your fucking face"

He shakes his head, "I didn't do anything wrong."

His confident voice hurts my insides. "You don't regret it at all?" disappointment takes over my emotions.

"Why would I... they never loved me as much as they loved you. Did you see that? They never preferred my happiness" his voice raises, "All this time they always objected my decisions!"

I listen intently, my mind racing as I process the information. I can't ever doubt my parents, they loved both of us equally. But it's new to me that he never felt loved. There was a reason why they didn't support his life decisions.

"They objected because your decisions were trash. They wanted you to be better. To do better. And get off the drugs first" I say firmly, "Go away or else I'll kill you too"

"I won't forget it" the look in his eyes is burning me.

It's burning me so much that I feel sweat emerging on my skin, I feel it hard to breath. I wake up with silence around me. I'm in my room. My breathing speed is unusual.

It was a nightmare. But a reality.

I hold my head. He killed Krystallo's niece. Romano killed her. He had planned it all since the very beginning in order to get us under him.

I can't help but feel agony. A very deep agony inside my heart.

On the left side of me, I see Arabella sitting. Her arms hugging her legs as she takes a nap.
