The Mafia Family

Chapter 42

Juliette's POV

Heading over to Victor's house is going to be hard. Facing him after what he did, but I had to play the grieving widow that I am to make sure Renny, Flynn and Elijah head inside with Maverick. I'm here to see Victor and as my godfather should comfort me. He was surprised to see me but I gave him a hug which he accepted it. We head inside and the corner of my right eye, I wicked for them to enter.

"She's in. Let's go."

"Red be careful."

"She'll be OK. Come on."

The two headed into his office, Juliette sat by the window as Victor sighed and turned around. "I'm sorry for you're husband, Juliette. I never had the chance to speak with you after I heard."

"I was grieving and I hadn't talked to anyone. I haven't left the room in a week. It's been hard."

"I can understand. Losing the man you love and your father in law. Alexander is with his son now."

Elijah and Flynn beat the men that stand in they're way of getting the kids. Renny went to find Rocky and Dash and end up finding Joey!

"Joey! Joey baby are you OK? Joey!" Joey was asleep and quickly opened the door and went to him. "Joey! Are you alright? Joey! I'm here baby. I'm here. Joey!" Renny held him close, kissing his head, "I'm here. I'm here baby. Joey." Joey slowly opened his eyes and lifted his head to see Renny. "Who are you?"

"You're... Angel. I'm you're Angel, baby."

"You're pretty." Renny held him close, the child she gave up all those years ago in now in her arms.

Dash and Rocky was surprised to see Elijah and Flynn for them. Rocky went back to the wall and turned her back, not wanting to see them.

"What are you doing here?"

"What do you think? We're here for you guys. We're going home."

"Home? Really?"

"No we're not. Home is where we belong in the first place! In District 40."

"Wrong Rocky. Home is with us. As a family."

Rocky turned around to face Elijah, Elijah was smiling and held out his hand for her. "Come on, Rock. Let's get Juliette and we'll be on our way to be a family." Victor's men was brought out and surrounded them. Elijah pulled Dash and Rocky closer to him, "I won't them hurt you! Not without a fight."
Rocky looked up and saw determination, is he really protecting her? No. He's not doing that to make her feel better. She saw Dash holding on to Elijah, he believes, but not her. Rocky doesn't believe them. She doesn't. She need to see it in Juliette as well!

Juliette stared at the photo of Victor and Joseph, close friends and yet, he betray him. He betrayed the family.

"When I look at you, I see Charlotte. You remind me of her in so many ways."

"My father always told me that. I remind her so much of her and I like that. Victor..."

"Juliette, I know it's too soon but with Elijah gone, you need someone to care for you and love you as the woman you are."

"What are you saying?"

"There's something you should know. If it wasn't Elijah that would marry you, if he was not the man or lost his chance, your father agreed to let me marry you."

"What? No. Your my..."

"Godfather? Yes I am but it wasn't signed to be your godfather. You see, if your father didn't want Elijah then he would ask me for your hand. Now that's gone, let me take care of you."
