Like A Hurricane

CHAPTER SIXTEEN: In Your Dreams!

CHAPTER SIXTEEN

I was in deep shit, I can't help them.

I said I'm willing to help, but if father hears what I did, he will despise me.

I've been loyal since the day he took me under his wing, I stole pockets first, I was still a kid, I did errands, he sent me to school, gave me his name, and gave me a home, and I grew up loyal, and I stole cars for him, sold weed for him, and did my best...I was dirty to the core.

And then, one day, I discovered another side of him, he did some services to his friends...like accepting requests to kill.

The first time I knew it, I was sent to clean a house, and that's when I found Lola, I was nearly 17 years old, and she was three.

Father cleaned her family, and she became the reason to live for me, the center of my life.

And I worked hard to afford her clean money to grew up, and finally, she grew up a sweet young lady.

I think it's time for me to disappear from her life, I am so dirty that I feel ashamed to belong to her clean life.

So, to ensure her security, and help the others, I decided to betray the man who received me under his wing.

The man I called father.

GABRIEL POV

Rei was in shock, he was emotionally confused, he cried and laughed at the same time, and he thanked God repeatedly.

I know he always hated me, the cause of everything, and I am no angel.

I don't blame anyone.

He wanted to stay by his side, but I asked Viktoria to drive him back, and make sure that everything stay secret.

Dimitri refused to answer his phone, so I asked Viktoria to check on him and call me.

I think that he is more at ease with Viktoria than with me.

I decided to call the others for a BBQ, and like that, we can have at least a good time before the action start.

I will ask Viktoria to tell the squad, and I will tell Theo tomorrow so he can tell Tyler too.

I looked at the finished painting in front of me and was satisfied, so I covered it and went to check on Silas before going to sleep.

About nearly  two years ago, the day when it all happened, the day Sophia died and Silas was reported dead, with some miracle, his body got stolen, and his ring and watch with his jacket were switched with an other body, the fire deformed the bodies, Silas was recognized from his ring and watch, so he was declared dead.

But he was saved by none other than Lorenzo, the man though that Silas didn't made it after he brought him to a hospital, so he never checked back, but apparently, the hospital kept it a secret after Lorenzo's first request and since he paid them generously.

Viktoria found out accidentally, so, she brought him here.

To tell the truth, I felt so happy and relieved when Viktoria told me, but once he wakes up, what am I supposed to tell him about Sophia?

I went to my room, the bad was comforting, and I started to think about tomorrow, I have work, and Viktoria also have a work now, what should I do now.

I rolled to the other side, and suddenly remembered someone, so I sent them a text and waited for a reply.

Not a moment passed when my phone vibrated, I opened the text and was satisfied with the answer, so I turned off the lights and called it a night.
