34| The Truth

Allena

I stumble out of Luca's office knowing there's one person I need to talk to: Kal.

Once I figured out France...and possibly Luca wants to kill me, it took me less than five minutes to find the address to Luca's warehouse where Kal was being held.

I moved quietly, but fast, hurrying to my room and grabbing my jacket and slipping on my shoes before making my way downstairs, and grabbing one of Luca's keys.

Getting to the garage is easy, and before I know it I'm speeding out of the driveway, the warehouse typed into the car's GPS system.

I blast the music as loud as it can go, trying to forget the fact that Luca might want to kill me. My brain is telling me to not jump to conclusions. Just because France sent a threat, doesn't mean Luca would by any means want to kill me. But why would France want me dead?

I pull into the warehouse, and don't even think about how the hell I'm going to get in. I just get up and out of the car before making my way towards the doors.

"Ma'am you can't..." a guard starts.

"I need to talk to Kal." I snap. "And you're going to take me to him." The guard chuckles like im an idiot, but I don't move from my position. "My name is Allena Draknos." I mumble. "And you're going to let me inside."

"Just because you're Mr. Romano's bitch..." The guard starts. Angry, i slide off my heel, and quickly press it against his throat.

"I can still shoot you." He mumbles, slightly struggling to breathe.

"Go ahead then." I smile. "We both know Luca will kill you next." He grunts, and i press the heel in further, drawing the slightest bit of blood. "You're going to let me inside, or i will tell Luca how rude you've been acting, is that clear?" I ask, tilting my head. He nods, and nudges open the door.

"Now, show me to Kal."

Five minutes later and Kal and i are sitting face to face, him sitting behind bars and laughing dryly.

"I knew you'd come eventually," He sighs, shaking his head.

"I want you to explain everything to me." I snap.

"Does your little boyfriend know you're here?" Kal asks.

"Obviously not, dumbass." I growl. "Now talk."

He grunts, but starts talking. "Everything was going to be mine." He sighs. "Your father loved me. The two of us were close, and neither of us had time for women, let alone marriage. I was his right hand man. And then he got diagnosed. Cancer. He was dying. He didn't have an heir, so naturally he was going to sign everything over to me. But then, he started spiraling. That's when he met your mother. They got drunk, and nine months later she showed up with you. And just like that, I lost everything."

"My father's company?" I ask. He smirks.

"That...and the Greek mafia." I stumble back, a sick feeling in my stomach. "Your father owned it all. And he was going to give it to me. But the moment you were born, everything changed. It was signed over to you. A baby. A girl." He seethes.
