The Mafia's Ballerinas

Chapter Twenty nine

Angel's POV

Dinner was over and they were getting ready to leave . " It was nice finally  meeting you , Angel " Rosa hugs me lovingly into her arms smiling widely pulling back " Likewise " I give her a genuine smile she was the only person who made me feel welcome tonight .

" See you soon" Antonio firmly shook my hand " of course " . Marcus said goodbye to Lucas and the girls then comes to me , a smirk on his face " Goodnight " he raised my hand to his lips and kisses it slightly . I shivered in disgust quickly pulling my hand away . Lucas was too busy talking to his father to notice . 

Leona walked up to Lucas " hum goodnight Lucas " she smiled slightly but it soon disappear when Lucas gives  her a blank face . She sighed then kiss the girls foreheads  then stares  at me but only  walked pass me not even saying anything .

When they were all gone Lucas turned to me " Are you alright ? You know ,after all this . I know my family can be a handful " He smiled sheepishly at me " I'm alright  ." He guide me to the living room couch and pulled me to him . I snuggled him .

" May I ask you something ? " I lift my head off his chest and placed I on his shoulder looking at him " Of course . Anything you want " I smiled at his words " What's the issue between your sister and you ? " I asked the question that had been on my mind . He face goes blank  " It's nothing you need to worry about ." He dismissed

I sighed feeling a bit sad . " Hey ," he lift my chin to look at him " It's really not important " he reassured " I just want to know . I know it's none of my business , but  it's concern you " " Alright " he quickly kissed my lips softly .

" Leona was supposed to take my father's place in the Mafia , but she was removed , she didn't exactly have a good life back then  " I frowned " what do you mean ?"

He shook his head his eyes filling with disappointment " At that time she started going to clubs everyday doing all those ungodly stuff " he sighed and continued

" When we all became to see this we all forbid it . Leona liked her freedom . My parents protected us until we were old enough to go out alone , but Leona saw this as a chance to live that life . I begged her to stop I was worried about her , but she never once let listened , and because of that , we drifted apart . " I urged him to continue

" And that's when she met  Nicolai , her boyfriend . I already knew he was bad news from the moment I layed my eyes on him . I know that we shouldn't juge people based on their looks , but he just gave me bad vibes . I confronted her she got mad and we had a huge fight which made her move away from us the next day with him . She didn't tell anybody where she was and she was gone for a whole two years until a year ago ."

" What hurts me more  is that she wasn't there when I needed her the most " I lifted my head from his shoulder and stared in confusion I wanted to ask him what he met but I refrained to , but he saw the confusion on my face and elaborate .

" Leona and I were really close but with the incidence we were not anymore . When the girls ' mother left , it chartered me and I really needed her there   I reached out to her but she never answered you know , until a year ago  then started acting like she cared " he rolled his eyes my eyes softened .

" Leona cares for you especially for the girls "  I place my hand on his trying to reassure him . The love in her eyes when she interacted with them was so evident " Maybe she had good reasons for not contacting you " He rolled his " Who ? Nicolai ?" He scoffed and I stayed quiet . He took my silence as a yes and slowly rise from his laying position . " What did he do , Angel ?"

His voice turned deep and scary has  he said it I slowly gulped " I'm not sure Lucas , but it's just a hunch ." I gently stroked circles on  on his chest in hopes to calm him down . " Tell me your hunch then "
