Daddy's home
Tw: mentions of domestic abuse and violence
As hard as it may be to talk about, it is imperative to find help in situations like these. It may seem difficult but seeking the help you require is much more important.
Bella's POV
Alessio Romano.
Not only was this man extremely unwanted in my home, but was also very much unwelcome after everything he put me through.
Most people considered our relationship to be a strong one, filled with understanding and unconditional love as father and daughter. And how hard i tried to maintain that image is beyond what i would like to disclose.
But what they didn't see was the years of suffering and abuse i suffered from this bloodthirsty, inhuman being before me.
From the ages of 9 till 17, i was left in the hands of the person i once deemed as the epitome of 'never judge a book by its cover'. With its cover being a brutal murderer who was head of one of the strongest mafias in the world. But it's content being a sweet man who cared deeply for his wife and only daughter.
We were once a happy family, fulled to the brim with riches and luxury. However that changed the moment my mother decided to leave, and i soon realised that i very much should have payed attention to the cover, as its insides were false.
From that day, 12 years ago, a fire burned so deep inside of me. My hatred for my mother only grew as it did for Alessio.
From the very moment my mother stepped out of that house, the brutal creature revealed itself to me, in the most diabolical ways known to man. It's a wonder i live to recall it all. And deep down i wish i don't.
"My sweet girl, how lovely it is to see you again." Alessio's voice is course and unnerving.
I restrain myself from marching up to him and dragging him out by his ear, "Where have you been, I thought you were dead?" Would have preferred him to be dead as well.
He steps closer to me, only slightly but it sets me off trail, "Now, is that any way to treat your father, fetch me some food I've had a very tiring day."
The fire inside me burns, threatening to explode as i assert angrily, "How dare you walk into my house and demand something from me after everything you put me through."
However it seems my father has had enough as well, he shouts, 'That is no way to speak to your father. I am the reason you are alive therefore you will respect me, especially in my house."
"This is not your house, it is mine. You are not the reason i am alive. My mother is the reason i am alive and i despise her just as much as i do you." I shout back at him, my fury is hardly contained and i fear i may use it for the wrong reasons.
Alessio takes a deep breath and sighs, "Regardless, i am here now and ready to take charge again," he then moves and points to Kevin, one of the guards, and says, "now fetch the Valentino from the basement, we have matter to discuss. All of us." Giving me a pointed look.
Kevin leaves to unlock the basement door and i watch as he descends the steps down.
My breath turns uneven as i shake my head, "No, you can't just take charge again after being gone for years."
Alessio moves to me and puts his hand on my shoulder before i slap it away, "Yes i can, and i will. No further discussion on that matter will take place."
As I'm about to shout back Kevin returns with Leo trailing behind him with a smirk on his face. However the smirk quickly fades and turns into shock when his eyes land on my father.
Leo looks towards me for answers but i ignore him, that's when father interrupts, "Now time for business, since i am back in charge it's time i told you two about an arrangement me and your father made." He speaks to Leo.
We both look at each other on disbelief, our families have been rivals for decades, in no universe would an arrangement be expected.
"You are to be wed, and work together as a couple." Father broadcasted.
My face drops, no way was i going to marry this piece of shit, i was supposed to use him to prove my power not have me power dimmed by his side.
"No." I'm clearly not the only one who thinks this arrangement is silly since Leo objects as well.
"Yes and that is final. Leo I'm sure you would want to make your late father proud, and you can do so by sticking to this arrangement." Alessio asserts.
Leo says nothing back, huffing loudly before charging out the house. I make no effort to follow him, still shocked over the situation.
