Adaliah

Chapter Nine

Third-person pov:

It's been five days since Adaliah has been staying with the Diaz brothers. She knows they are not just normal people roaming around the streets. She is well aware that they are dangerous people just like the one who visited her mother at that place but one thing she is sure about is that As long as she keeps them all under her control, she is safe.

She isn't a weak girl who will run away after seeing the blood on their clothes and things. She needs to be strong and dangerous to live in this world and they are the only ones who can give her the power.

Diaz brothers think they are helping a girl who lost her mother but they aren't aware that Adaliah is just using them right for power. She wants this power to save all the people at the prostitute's house. And she will do it one day.

Adaliah isn't just a normal toddler, she is much more than that. If her real identity comes out, she will be the most powerful weapon to kill the Diaz brothers and the world's most dangerous Mafia empire in seconds.

But Will Adaliah really hurt the Diaz brothers?

(Who is Adalah? 🤔)
-------------------------------------

Adaliah is lying in Ezra's room wide awake as she couldn't sleep because of the nightmares of her mother being scared and crying for help. She couldn't sleep more than an hour or two for the last three days. She is mostly exhausted all day. She doesn't play or do anything just lays down upside down on the couch alone and watches movies most of the day.

Ezra was busy with his book launch things so he wasn't home rather than late at night. Vito is dealing with some things at the office so he also left work early and came back late. Klaus is working on a case so he is mostly out even at night and Vincente is launching a new work project so he also has parties and stuff every single day and only comes back around midnight or something.

Nyx is taking a few weeks off from his work so he is at home taking care of the little butterfly. He doesn't call her that in front of her but yes he internally accepted her as His little butterfly. Nyx doesn't pay much attention to her rather than feeding her from time to time.

But does he know that a kid needs good food and attention all the time to grow healthy? Adaliah wasn't affected by the way she wasn't getting all the attention, she was used to being on her own for weeks but she didn't know what this time she was feeling like, something was hurting her heart.

Diaz's brothers aren't ignoring her intentionally but still, it kind of hurts her tiny heart not getting all the attention. Adaliah sighed loudly and slowly slid herself away from Ezra's warm and comforting arms which were giving her warmth and love on this cold chilly night.

Adaliah covered Ezra with the blanket properly they winced at the empty feeling of her hands so she slid a pillow into his arms and mine cuddled it close sniffling the pillow. When he sniffed her smell on the pillow, he calmed down instantly and fell asleep once again.

Adaliah smiled unknowingly at him and wore the unicorn slippers she got with Vito on her shopping trip. She is wearing a pair of shirt shorts (night suit) with a sin chan print and her hair is tied in a braid mess as she keeps twisting and turning around on the bed when she can't sleep.

She walked out of the room remembering Vito's words: "Whenever I feel upset or can't sleep I go to the terrace and watch stars in the sky near our pool. It gives me a kind of peace and helps me fall asleep soon"

Adaliah nodded to herself and walked towards the stairs going to the terrace rubbing her arms to find some kind of warmth on this chilly night. She reached the terrace and walked towards the poolside which Vito showed when he gave the house tour. She stopped near the pool edge looking up in the dark sky shining with stars.
