Carter's POV

"Well, I'm waiting." I say to them as I sit there, glaring in their direction. I still couldn't comprehend the fact that they were in the mafia, and by the way that 'Hulk' follows their orders I'm assuming that they run the mafia. Gawd how could I have been so stupid. They lied to me, even after I told them everything about myself, they still lied. I hated that I loved them. Yes, I'm in love with them. People always say that you can't possibly love someone so quick and easily, but I did. My love for them is strong and I know that it won't go away.

As I look at all of them, no one moves, they don't even breath.

"If no one tells me the truth right now, I will leave..." I trail off, still waiting. It looks like they want to speak but they won't. My heart breaks as I realise they can't be honest with me.

I let out a sigh and run my hand over my face, trying to keep my tears at bay. I look up one last time, just too see if one will at least speak but they're all looking in another direction. They can't even look me in the eye.

"Fine." I say and stand up. I grab my things and head for the door. I see they're all watching me, but no one makes a move to stop me. I clench my teeth and open the door, but it's suddenly slammed closed. I gasp and look up at Alessio, he stares down at me with pain in his eyes.

"You can't leave as well. Please Carter, don't leave me, us."

"Then tell me the truth Alessio. I've been completely honest with all of you, but you can't tell me this? Why should I stay when you all don't trust me enough to tell me this. Were you ever going to tell me!" I scream at them all with tears streaming down my face. They all look down in shame, answering my question. I shake my head in disappointment and try to open the door again but Alessio is blocking the way.

"Move Alessio."

"I was eight when it all started-"

"Alessio you don't have to do this-"

"Yes I do, Romeo! I was eight when it all started. My father had left my mother, sister and I. She couldn't afford to feed us often so I took matters into my own hands. I joined a gang and began to deal drugs. She, found out about it all and yelled at me, telling me that I was no longer her son. She kicked me out the house and told me to never come back. I was ten years old. I lived on the street, still dealing drugs to get by. At that point I loathed my mother, and never tried to return home. Then when I was fourteen I met Romeo. He took me in and then I met everyone else. They became my family and eventually my lovers. They never abandoned me, we were all doing so well, until I found out that my mother had died two years before I joined Romeo and the guys. I went looking for my sister and found out that she was taken away to a family I never knew existed. No matter how hard I tried to find her, I just couldn't. I lost my mother and sister and it was all my fault." By the time he's finished he has tears falling down his face. He turns away from me, ashamed of what happened, as if it was his fault. My heart clenches in pain and I wrap my arms around Alessio's waist. He gasps in shock and turns around. I smile up at him.

"Thank you." I whisper and lean up, kissing him softly. He smiles into the kiss and takes the lead, dominating my mouth. His tongue slides along my bottom lip, asking for entrance. I open my mouth happily and he slips his tongue inside my mouth. I moan at the taste of him, as his tongue explores my mouth. A cough interrupts our make out. I blush as I look at everyone else.

I yelp in surprise when Alessio picks me up and sits us both down on the single couch. We look at the rest of them, waiting for them to speak.

"I was kidnapped as kid. I was only five when I was taken away. I served for a few years in a slave trade, but no one ever bought me because I would always cause the most trouble and no one wanted a slave like that. Then when I was twelve Romeo found me and took me in. I was the first one he found and I will always be grateful to him." I climb off Alessio's lap and walk over to Stefano quickly. I sit down in his lap and hug him to me tightly. He also has tears falling down his handsome face. I frown and wipe away his tears, not wanting the men I love to cry. I peck his lips softly and he pulls me into his embrace tightly.

"Well me and Luca come from the same place. We were young and stupid and we got involved in a gang. We sold drugs but we ticked off the wrong person. They sent people out to kill us so we were on the run most of our lives. At sixteen we ran into Stefano, and he brought us to Romeo. There we explained everything to Romeo and he took us in with open arms. Our parents no longer wanted us, so we lived with him and everyone else. We'd probably be dead if it weren't for them." I did the same thing, I got up and went over to comfort them two. They held me tightly, as if I was going to disappear. I wasn't leaving them. I don't think I ever could. I heard someone clear their throats. I looked over and it was Romeo.

"My father was the Mafia Boss, he still is but I'm next in line. Kind of like an illegal royal family. I also didn't have the easiest childhood. My father expected a lot from me. I had to the epitome of perfection. If I ever did something wrong I was punished. Father's favourite punishment was to whip me. After a while I became use to it. He may not be as strict now as he was before but I know that if I ever did something bad, he would still punish me. When I met all of them, I finally felt like I had a family. I loved them all equally, and even if they wanted to leave I was never gonna let them go."

By the end of his speech I was already in his lap, him hugging me tightly while the rest came over and embraced each other. I felt slightly bad for 'Hulk', he had to watch this but he didn't seem to mind. I'm glad I fell in love with these men.

Knock Knock

I pull away from Romeo and stare at the door. Who could that be?

"Oh um, I may have forgotten to mention that my sister is coming over. A couple years back she ran away from home to go looking for me. She had apparently been doing research and found me." I smiled and stood up. I walk to the door and opened it slowly. My smile immediately changed from happy to shocked.

"Ah there's my baby sis-"

"Carter?"

"Alex?"
