I enter the room and let out a sigh. I really need to tell him. I took a shower and waited for him. He was with Christian, discussing business.

A few minutes later he entered and gave me a heart warming smile which I responded with a small smile.

"What's wrong?" He asked approaching me. "I need to tell you something." I said. "Remember that day I told you that story about my parents?" I asked and he hummed. "I lied." I closed my eyes. "I didn't want to recall the... the." I said hesitantly.

"You can tell me." He squeezed my hands lightly in reassurance. "I know why the Americans are after me." I said. He sat next to me and then pulled me close to him.

"I am all ears." He said, my heart filled with joy.

"Viktor valente Scott is my father." I started snuggling closer to him." He killed my Grandfather, Noah Valente Scott. My Grandmother, Sandra Maxine Scott, my Uncle, Sandro François Scott, and my aunt, Lucrezia Eliza Scott." I started and he held me tight.

"I would practically beg my parents to spend my holidays at my uncle's house, my grandparents would always be there as well as my uncle's university best friend, Spain's mafia don, they all spoiled me so much but also taught me how to be kind and caring while my parents just cared about themselves and my siblings. The only person who cared for me in that house was my older brother, my parents and sister used to judge me because of how skinny I was, though I was not that skinny as you remember, I had a good amount of flesh but they still judge me to project their own insecurities on their body on me."

"Ben would always cheer me up and motivate me which I am eternally grateful for. Ben is my brother, do you still remember him." I asked he nodded his head up and down as a yes

"I was 18 years old when it happened, I told my parents what career I wanted to pursue, in that evening, I was clueless about my favourite family member's death, and you... you dumped me. They were beyond angry. I called uncle Sebastian , uncle Sandro's best friend, i told him what had happened and he was angry, he invaded the house and took me, he protected me as if I was his own."

"He told me about the money and properties my grandparents left me and V made me invest and start a real estate company." He put his hand on my chin and made me look at him. "You never told me you had a company." He said. "Well you never asked me if I had one." I said.

"Anyways, uncle Sebastian told me about my parents death. After I graduated university I told him that I did not need bodyguards because my parents didn't even bother to look for me and he accepted." I ended the said reality of my life.

"Are you mad I didn't tell you earlier?" I asked him.

"Why would I be? You went through a lot and I feel happy you told me." He said.

"The only other person I told was V." I said proudly.

"You are really the best of friends aren't you." He said. "Yeah we are, we always look after each other, actually she always looks after me. I was a mess at university." I confess.

"I need to take a shower." He said and went to take a shower, when he came back we did our night prayer and went to sleep.

I really hope you enjoy this book. I actually have this idea in class and quickly wrote it down.🥲

In my defense we were not having lessons cause the teacher was letting us study for our pre test 😁
