Say My Name

My whole life.
My whole life has been a lie.
I believed that this sick woman was my actual mother.

I.......I have a Mother out there.
"Veronica?"
She said placing a hand on my knee.
I looked at it, then slapped it away.
She lied to me. SHE LIED TO ME.
I got up, grabbed her by the neck and bashed her against the wall.
"YOU. YOU FUCKING TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME. YOU RUINED MY LIFE. GAVE MY INNOCENCE AWAY. I WILL KILL YOU".

She started scratching my hands, but I didn't care. I just wanted to choke this woman to death.
"P-p-plea-se".

I felt a strong grip yank me away. She fell to the floor coughing.
"What the hell let go of me"
I shouted but whoever it was ignored me.

"Veronica"
I took a deep breath and calmed down.
I turned around and hugged him really tight.
"Hunter. Get this woman away from me, before I kill her".

He cupped my face, "Go to the room, I'll sort this out"
I hesitated for a moment but eventually went up the stairs. I saw Theo and Antonio standing there.
"Gentlemen, This isn't a social event. You each have your own jobs. Go do them".

"Sorry, we heard shouting so we decided to stay together if something happened".

"Everything's fine. Go back to work. Or go back to bed. I really don't care".
They both nodded and left.

I went into the room and collapsed on the bed.
Gosh, how Come Hunter got the comfier bed.
She's not my mother.
I have a Mother out there.
Who fucking left me.

Hunter came in and set next to me.
"I put her in a guest room".

WHAT. I sat upright staring at him in confusion.
"WHY— why is she still here"

He rolled his eyes making me feel stupid.
"You really want her to leave without asking any questions on your biological Mother"
He's right.
"Give it till tomorrow, ask her when you've calmed down"

"Wait. How do you know she's not my biological Mother".
His eyes widened.
"Mmmm maybe. Or I could have. *sigh* i was eavesdropping"
I mentally rolled my eyes at him.
I looked at him. If it wasn't for him, then. Then I wouldn't have a fucking scar on my shoulder.
This man.
Do I 'love' him.
I don't 'love'.

"Staring is rude love"
I punched his arm and laid in the bed, hiding my self in the covers.
I have a lot of questions to get through.
******************

"VERONICA. WAKE UPPPP".
I jumped, and my eyes shot open.
I vision adjusted and I saw Hunter laughing.
"Hunter what the hell".
I said pushing my hair out the way.
"Sorry babe. You just looked really peaceful"
He said still laughing.
"I'm gonna get you so bad"
I say getting up and punching him on his naked chest.

"Your moth- sorry that woman is awake, she's downstairs, I put her away from your Mafia because they want to kill her".
I laughed at the thought of that.
"I'll be down in 10 minutes"
He left the room and I went into the bathroom.
I looked in the mirror, I don't even look like her, just her telling me I'm not her actual daughter.
I felt. So many different emotions.

I felt......sad.
I rolled my eyes and cleaned myself up.
I went downstairs to see a angry Christopher.
"What"
I say grabbing a apple.
"What. That's all you have to say. I found out from someone else what happened. And that she's here".
He said standing directly in front of me.
"Aww, you look sexy when your angry"
I say pinching his cheeks and laughing.
He rolled his eyes and walked away.
Ok, now I need to find her.

I go into the room and see her sitting there uncomfortably. Like I care.
"The only reason your alive is because of Hunter. You better give me the truth, because trust me. Hunter won't be here to save you this time"
She nodded, knowing what to do.
I took a chair and sat in front of her.
"Why, Why Lie this entire time. Why not tell me the truth?"

"I was told not to. By your Father-"
Before she continued I had a question.
"Is he my real Father".
I say.
I don't know what I want her answer to be.
"He is. I'm going to tell you everything.
Me and your Father met at a club. We both fell in love and I decided to move out and go live with him. It had been 1 year in our relationship, I was surprised he still didn't propose but I didn't care. I loved him.
One day me and him were watching Tv together when there was a knock on the door.
He opened it and there stood your Mother. Your Father questioned what she was doing here. She was pregnant. By him"

You could see the pain in her eyes. But I don't care. All I want is answers.
"Then what. I don't have time for your acting".

"She was pregnant by your Father. Me and him got into a argument. And the woman told us she was going to abort the baby. But your Father didn't want that. So he lied to her. He said that them two would raise a family. So she kept it. Gave birth.
Then he took the baby. He stole her and Your Mother never even got a chance to hold you.
He hated you, the only reason he kept you was so he could ruin your life just like you ruined his".

I squeezed my hand tight making my nails dig into my skin forming a crescent moon.
"Who was she?"
I question looking at her in the eyes.
"I-i don't know her name. B-but she's dead".
She didn't look me in the eyes. She kept her head down.
She's fucking lying. Well now she is useless to me. I have to go to someone else.
"I told you the consequences of lying. But don't worry. I won't do it......CHRISTOPHER"
He came in with a devilish grin on his face.

"Kill this woman. Outside. This rug is worth more than her"
He nodded with a smile on his face.
"N-no Veronica. Please. I-I'm s-sorry"
She begged but Christopher dragged her away.

I need to find out who she is. And I know exactly who to go to.

I went into the basement, going to the last door. The door no one ever wants to be in.
I swung open the door.
He was tied to a chair with a small knife in his leg.

He had a sinister look on his face. I'm done being scared of him.

"Father".
