Lara
I've been watching a new show on Netflix on the couch with Storm for a while now. My babies on the coffee table in front of me.
Dove knows me best.
I hear the door open and my head snaps up. I see a gaurd walking to Dominic.
"Don. They spanish have arrived." He says.
"Let them in."
"Yes Don." He replies as he bows his head and leaves.
I hear people enter the house and conversation ensue but I truly can't be bothered to care at the moment. After my episode ends and the next one is about to begin I get interrupted.
"Lara." I hear Dominic call softly as I hear the door open again.
"Yes?" I respond.
"There's someone you'd wanna meet." He says.
I get up off the couch with Storm and head over to where everyone is. I hear an audible gasp from the man in front of me. Dove is looking between me and the man who gasped. He goes to approach me and Storm immediately stands in front of me. Daring the man to take a step closer.
The man chuckles. "It seems she's stolen your dog from you Ace."
"Storm." I call and he looks up at me.
"It's okay" I assure him and he retakes his stand by my side.
"Bullet." I say acknowledging the man next to him.
"Mateo Garcia?" I question and he nods.
"You're a hard man to gain information on." I chuckle.
"You looked into me? How?" He asks.
Bullet is quick to speak up.
"She is the one by many names brother. I just never thought the woman I know as Nyx could be my niece." He tells him slightly shaking.
"My daughter. I thought there would never be a day I see you. You look exactly like your mother. You have her beautiful eyes. " Mateo chokes out.
"Lara Nova Sage." I tell him and he looks at me.
"My actual name is Lara Nova Sage." I say as he begins to tear up.
"I know my soul. Lara and Nova were the two names we were torn between so she said the name she loved would be your first name and the one I loved would be the middle. We'd switch if we ever had another child." He chuckles.
"She's Dove indigo meadows. My best friend. I don't go anywhere without her." I say as he looks to Dove who's next to me.
"But onto the actual topic of the evening if i'm your daughter, why was I abandoned?" I question.
"You weren't abandoned my love. Not even in the slightest. At least not by us. You were only a few months old, your mother wanted to take you shopping with her and you always had this little bear that had her name on it. She loved shopping for you, she constantly wanted to dress you up in cute little outfits. She'd even interrupt meeting just to show me you in your newest dress that made my heart melt. Everyone loved you and Maria but there was always someone who didn't. When Maria and you had finished shopping she came outside to her guards dead. She began to run, she didn't want anything to happen to you. She kept running. She called me and told me what happened and I told her I'd be there as soon as I could but she insisted that couldn't happen. They were looking for her, hunting her nearly. She told me she loved me and she was sorry and then she tossed her phone which I found. The Italian mafia Don at the time was obsessed with Maria, she knew if he had found you with her that you'd be killed my soul. He wanted nothing that shared mine and Maria's blood to walk this earth. With no trace of you or Maria I issued a search. Country wide, but my wife was especially talented at spying and staying hidden." He sighs.
"Which is how I ended up in foster care in America with nothing but that bear?" I question.
"I assume so Dear. I assume so. I still cannot find even a trace to Maria to this day. I wouldn't have been able to find you if they didn't." He says.
"We didn't find her." Dom says with a chuckle.
"Then what happened?" He questions.
"Do you really want to know old man?" I ask with a brow raised.
"Please no..." Bullet says laughing.
"One night stand with pretty boy right here. Then I stole his gun cause I thought it was pretty. Then noticed it was made by Bullet and gave him a call. He explained who he made it for. I thought that was that till I saved Octavia after murdering Lewis Romano. Then Dante and Zeke. Now here we are." I shrug my shoulders.
"You? Him? Wait not important we'll get to that later you're going after the Romanos?" He raises his brow.
"They kidnapped me and Dove. Tortured us for years. Sparing the details that They will fill you in on later. So now I collect heads and names." I sigh.
Before I know it the Don of the Spanish mafia is hugging me. A man that is so feared that even Dominic himself doesn't want problems with. The original King of the underworld and He's crying. Whispering to me he's sorry and that he's proud of me. I tensed at first at the action of someone hugging me but I relaxed. Nearly immediately I relaxed.
He gets up as Dove comes over to me smiling happily.
"One thing though." I tell him
"Anything my soul." He responds
"If i'm your daughter, So is she. I don't go anywhere without her. I don't do anything without her knowing. If you can't accept that you can't accept me." I say.
"That's all? Well then I guess we have two Garcia's now." He says with a smile as Dove gasps and hugs me.
As if I would ever leave her.
"Now what are all of those on the table and surrounding the room?" He asks and Bullet chuckles.
"Those are what makes her feel safest. Surrounded by loaded guns. Hers are all fully custom to her liking that I created. Her favorites are the two AK's I assume that are on the living room table where she was." Bullet answers.
"You would be correct." I smile at him.
"You requested all of these?" My father asks with wide eyes.
It's crazy that I actually have a father. Even crazier that he's a Don himself.
"Yep and Bullet delivers. As probably the only person in the underworld he's loyal to I guess I get special treatment." I laugh.
"That you do my Dear Nyx. That you do and now that you're my Niece anything you want is yours." He laughs with me.
"What I want is new intel on the Italians." I say.
"If I know anything about them then Maria if she's been captured will still be alive. Especially if they are as obsessed with her as they were with me." I mutter lowly.
Both Dons, My uncle, Dexter and Dove tense at my words. Dove knows exactly what I mean. She was there. She witnessed it, We'd patch eachothers wounds the best we could. Silently promising to never leave the other. Even in death the other would follow.
She knows what I mean by Maria, my supposed mother being alive. They'd beat me half to death and leave me to heal for a little just to beat me again. They were obsessed with the fact that one day they'd break me. Each wanting to be the one to do it.
To break me was a game. A game they'd never fucking win.
