Dukas p.o.v.

This is worse than i thought!

Yes but remember they killed the woman we love!

"And this is only a payback for what they've done." I mumbled a reply.

"I mean i didn't mean to take the child-"

But think about her parents sins and error towards you? It's a mighty, mighty revenge! Ha! Ha!

"Taking their daughter away was punishable enough. They will go crazy trying to find her?! Ha! But how can we keep her hidden forever.

Give her away! Send her to another part of the word. We'll stay and watch the family go down slowly.

I stopped pacing and took in my surrounding.

"I know what to do!" I muttered in realisation.

"What?"

I swirled around to see Jake standing in the doorway. I grinned.

"Do you want to know what i realised?" I asked him, voice dripping in sarcastic humor.

"That you have another evil personality?" Jake responded cautiously.

I gave him a weird look!

"What? You were talking to yourself for a few minutes when i came in. It's like there was another person in you fighting for control." He exasperated, which immediately ticked me off.

"If i were to have another person inside me, those Salvatore's would be dead by now."

Jake backed off with one of his hand laying on the gun tensely.

I took a deep breath to calm myself down before i do something i would regret later.

"I have a plan." I tried again. Jake made no move to respond and so i continued to fill the gaps.

"My plan is to have the child adopted. We could do out the country adoption. They do that right?"

"Why do you want to put her up for adoption. We need the child to protect ourselves, just in case." Jake added.

"No! We don't need it. We give the child up for adoption and we get fake identification and disguise, to walk freely and at the same time watch the Salvatore crumble into oblivion. Isn't that a great plan? That's a perfect plan!" I sneered.

"10 years in prison really messed up your mind huh?" I heard Jake mutter. I glared before replying with gritted teeth.

"You would be if you were to stand next to the woman you love for a second and then watch her brain get blown off by fucking Salvatore hitman. That bastardo has been after me since i took his bitch Leah under my wings."

I stared at the wall in front of me as the memories of that day ran through my head.

"I didn't even have the chance to hold her one last time as her body laid against the front desk. Her blood splattered everywhere. Those bastards stormed in and dragged my frozen body into a van-

That was the last time i ever saw my woman again." My woman!

"How sure were you it was the Salvatore that assasinated her to get you?" Jake asked.

I slowly turned around. "I just know!"

I directed Jake to make some contacts and it took him days, maybe weeks to receive everything i asked for. New passports and disguises. And i am off to drop the child to the agency with a strictly typed letter to adopt the child overseas. Luckily for me, Jake has a man working in the same agency, so he processed everything after i left the child at their doorstep.

A few days later, we received a letter with only a few words. Words that finally placed my plan into motion.

"Child's been adopted by an old couple from Australia!"

I grinned evilly!

It's finally happening!

"It finally is!" Now i have a full on smirk on my face with one last word running through my head.

"Finally!"
