  Miliana Pov~

I picked the phone ringing on my bed with a smile creeping onto my face. "Hello." I answered. "Hello love." His husky deep voice reverberated through the phone and making me warm inside. "I miss having you wrapped around me Mili." He said. I felt the blush creep onto my cheeks "I know I miss you too Niccoli. But I have to stay here until everything is settled with the counsel." I said with a sigh, most likely trying to convince myself. (Niccoli= Gianna and Yana Older Brother AKA Miliana secret boyfriend 😊)

"Babe you know I told you a million times that I can help if you let me. All we have to do is tell everyone. Raf already knows. I don't understand all the secrecy." He said urgently with a dissatisfied sigh. I looked down at the tile and huffed outloud "I know. I guess i'm just scared. After everything that's happened I finally found someone who loves me more than anything else in the world. And I guess I didn't want to share with anyone as yet. I- I wanted to be selfish." I said laying back against my bed. 

I heard his breathing through the phone as my words I guess were seeping in to his head. But his breathing gave me a sense of calm in a weird way. I missed it, i really missed him. "I understand Mil but I think it's time. If you wait any longer your brothers are not going to be happy." He said matter of factly. "I know." i whined which made him chuckle through the phone. "I'll talk to them." I murmured. "You can do this love. I have to go, Mafia business calls. Love you." He said. "Love you." I whispered back and hung up the phone. 

I bit my lip as the nervousness seeped into me like a flood. My heartbeat against my chest and I couldn't help it, I don't know why I was so nervous. I'm a grown women and my brothers can't tell me who I can and can't date. I'm not a little teenager or one of their kids they have to understand and listen to me. I nodded in confidence and sat up with conviction coursing through me. "I can do this." I murmured and got up and walked out of my room on the search for my brothers. I need to get this over with before I chickened out. 

As I walked down the stairs in search for anyone I heard a faint voice yelling. As I got closer to the living room the voices got louder. Walking in I saw Ales , Kalani and Isabella and Antonio screaming their heads of at eachother. All the parents were in the room as well arguing with eachother. Adriano, Matteo, Gio, Yana, Leena and Gia. 

I stood their quiet and dumbfounded listening to the chaos erupting in the room.

"You need to stop cheating and admit that I won!" Antonio yelled arrogantly at the girls. "Oh are you kidding me you cheat at everything. We all know you didn't win so give it up punk." Ales yelled back. 

"Don't call your cousin a punk." Gia yelled at her daughter with her hands on her hips. "But he's being totally unreasonable!" Kalani said. "I don't care. And what is this I hear about you guys leaving the house without telling any of us." Gia yelled severely pissed off.

"We didn't really leave!" Isabelle yelled. "I don't care you know you can't leave the property. Where did you think you were going anyway?" Matteo said sternly, arms crossed. "For a walk." Antonio said shrugging his shoulders. "You are in deep shit. Upstairs now." Giovanni said pointing to his son and the stairs. Antonio's shoulders sagged and he reluctantly left the room.
