We have been driving for an hour, it's started to rain.

I love the rain.

We get to a park.

He turns off the car and looks at me.

I don't dare look at him.

But something is compelling me to.

"He is here." Is all I say.

I can see him nodding in his peripheral.


He knew.

He knew, he let me walk into a potential trap.

"Why is he here" I ask.

But deep down I don't know who I am talking about.

I don't think he knows either.

He is the prince of the underworld.

He knows all of the option.

He doesn't need to know who I am talking about.


He knew.


"I am sorry." Is all he said.

The tear dopped down my face.

Noah.

He sold my identity, almost killing me.

My brothers.

The top mafia in the world, my old rivals.

Dom.

My worst nightmare, my abuser.


Joe.

My father figure, the potential brains behind my abuse.

He knows this all.

"You didn't help me."

"You let me walk into the trap."

"You broke your promise."

"You could have helped me."

I'm crying at this point.

"Why didn't you help me."


"I needed you, where were you."


"Stop."


The words came out of his mouth this time.


"I couldn't, they, they, I just couldn't."


I thought he would make me feel better.


It's to quiet.


My brain is working too hard.

He broke his promise.

He hurt me.

It clicked.

"Why did you want to meet with me."

He is with them.

"I'm sorry."

That is all he said.

Over.

And over.

"I'm sorry."

That is all he said.


"you're the brains."


I interrupted his apologies.


He never did his own dirty work.


"What do I need to do now,"


That is all I asked.


"Date me again."


I was confused.

I would have dated him without the abuse and knowledge.



"They won't touch you anymore, dom will be dead, joe and maya too."


All of this for a relationship.


That I no longer want.


There is an ulterior motive.


"What are the strings."


"No strings, we go to the same school, our families are friends, we have dated before."


"And if I don't"


"It will double."


"Why are you doing this to me."


He didn't speak.


I have two options.

Two bad options.

"fine"

"I will have then dead by tomorrow night."


"Can I kill them."


That is all I ask.
He nodded and turned the car back on.


Driving back to my house.


In the rain.


I no longer like rain.
