Kill or be killed

Why did you come?

(Veronica's POV:)

Hunter kept his hand around my waist while he led me to the door.
When we got to the front he let go to lock the car while I pushed open the doors.
It hurts even to move my arms. Everything bloody hurts.
I stepped inside and my eyes landed on two people.

Hunter came inside lightly bumping into me.
"Veronica what's wro-".
He said but pausing when he saw them. Yeah. Sanchez is here....with my mother.
"Sanchez?".

He came. He actually came. "Hunter can you Leave us".
I say staring at Sanchez. He nodded and went upstairs along with Ace.

I slowly walked towards them, trying not to make a face because of the pain.
"Sanchez......Rose. What are you doing here?".

Please don't tell me he told her.
"I-i can't believe its you. Valentina, my daughter".

Obviously he told her. I mean why wouldn't he he's Sanchez.
Hold on.
She said Valentina. How the fuck does she know.
"How do y-".
Before I could finish she interpreted me.
"You don't know how long I've been waiting to see you . I thought it would never happen".
She said hugging me tight. This hurts. Really hurts.

Eventually she let go and cupped my face.
"My daughter. My sweet innocent girl. Who got destroyed by her Father".

What do I say. She's standing right in front of me.
I went all the way to London to go see her. I wasn't ready. So I came back. Got kidnapped and nearly died. What a great start.

Though. She does genuinely look happy to see me. Which doesn't sound right from what my father told me.
"I need answers. From both of you".

She gave me a small smile and went and sat down.
"I want to talk to you individually. Sanchez".
I gestured for him to follow me out.
We got in the hallway and he looked nervous.

"Why did you bring her here?"

He ran a hand through his messy hair and let out a sigh.
"She's your mother. You deserve to know her. You travelled all the way to London just to see her, but you got scared. I know you Veronica. You didn't want to let her in because your afraid you'll hurt her".

He's right. I am afraid. "Sanchez. You do know that I care about your life more. I promised I would always protect you. I failed really badly. But know that I was out of your life for a while, you seemed ok".
He smiled at me and came a little closer.

"What are you going to do with her?".
He questioned.
"Honestly I don't know. I want to know everything from her. My father gave me some info-".
Before I could finish he interrupted me.

"Hold on. Your Father is still alive. As in the father that literally tried to kill you and me. The father who worked with Hunter, who you are weirdly enough with....that father".
Jeez since when did he care if he was dead or not.

"Anyway...there's one I just can't shake off.
My other 'mother' who wasn't actually my mother, just comes out of nowhere telling me about my real mother. So I got to my father and he tells me everything. So he couldn't have done anything because he's locked up.
I go to England. Which is quite big. I end up in the place as you. In the whole world".

He knotted his brows understandably what I said.
"Your right it's weird. But maybe it's not that important".

If only he knew how important it was.

"I'm gonna go talk to my...mother. Wait here".

I went into the room feeling brave. She left me. I need answers.
I went and sat next to her and she had a huge smile on her face.
