Vanessa's POV:

He said he suffered. Does he even know what suffering means? He had everyone with him his mother, his father, his friends whereas me his parents killed my mother and father, I didn't even have a single soul on whom I can rely on. He was the one reason behind all this and now he was asking Why I was behaving strangely. For how long do you think Zain Adams that I will foolishly trust you? The naive and innocent girl who loved you is gone. The day she came to you know that your parents killed her family was the day she changed.

After I took a shower I sit on the couch to read a book. I always loved to read books, I still do. I wanted to be a writer, I dreamt of a normal life, just like any other girl I wanted to be happy with my family and friends. But some things do not go the way you want them to.

My thoughts were interrupted when I heard some noise from the corridor. I put my book down and open the door of my room to see that there's no one outside. It's past midnight everyone might be sleeping by now. But when I walk past my study I hear some noise again. Dean might be sleeping by now and other than him nobody has the keys of my study. I open the door and walk towards the light switch. But to my surprise, the moment I switch the light on someone kicks me and switch it off again. I jerk back but regain my balance. The moonlight coming from window was the only source of light. I sense that there's someone behind me so I dodge and kick. The person falls with a loud thud and hisses in pain. I go back to switch on the light but someone pulls my hand and twist it earning a punch from me in the gut. Now that the light is on I can see clearly, there are three of them with their faces covered with masks, one clutching his stomach I think he was the one whom I kicked. Two of them attack again but I dodge and punch one of them. Opening the drawer of my table I pull out a gun and point it towards them.

"Before I make a hole in your head, tell me who you are and how the hell you got in?" There's no way in hell they can get inside the mansion.

One of them takes a step forward and I shoot just an inch away from where his leg was, startled he takes a step back.

"Calm down girl you will kill us."

"Yeah, she still has some anger issues." Familiar voices. They are finally here.

I shoot once more towards the floor before dropping the gun and smiling.

"Are you crazy? Why did you shoot when you know it's us." Kian replied.

"It's because you didn't tell me that you were coming and sneaked in without my permission," I replied suppressing a giggle.

"It's not funny young lady," Jasper said removing his mask and coming forward to hug me. I hug him back but then two more idiots join us squeezing me like a lemon.

"Ahhh, leave me," I said while wiggling to get out of their grip but it's too tight.

But they just chuckle. After some time they leave me, and after that, I ask.

"But how did you come inside?"

"We came in from there," Cole said pointing towards the shelf behind me.

"Oh, I was waiting for you all to come to use that secret door," I replied. Now it all makes sense. They came here from the secret passage which is connected to the secret underground basement. Dean or anyone else does not know about it. Kian said we should have a secret place because we are mafias. And he is so stubborn that we had to agree with him.

"So, how was your day?" Cole questioned while sitting on the couch.

"It was ok," I answered remembering the things that happened today, it was just okay, I don't want to think about it again.

"Details princess," Kian winks. I sigh.

"Nothing, He tried his best to show that he still cares for me and loves me but I am not gonna get fooled by him again guys," I answered but I none of them reacted, they just frowned.

"Guys, we discussed this thing before I came back here, that I am not gonna trust him and that was the end of the discussion," I said because I don't want to discuss all this right now.

"Ok fine, Guys I am tired we should sleep," Jasper replied.

"Your rooms might not be cleaned because of your foolish idea to come without telling me. Only Dean knows your identity in this house, your rooms are on the 3rd floor and you will be here as guards," I order as I turn towards my desk and pull out the keys of their rooms. I throw the keys towards Cole and he catches it.

"Yes ma'am, but I still don't understand why do you want us to be here as-" Kian tried to say but Cole cuts him off.

"Not again Kian, she already told you the reason three times, Now let's go," Cole said as he puts his arm around Kian's shoulder dragging him out and giving me a quick smile. I smile back.

"Everything will be alright princess, you are not alone in this, go to sleep now it's already late," Jasper said hugging me once again.

"Yes," I answer with a sigh. He kissed my forehead just like he used to do every night for the past 4 years, it gives me a reassurance that I am not alone in this he is always here for me.

My uncle shifted to France for his graduation, all these years when my father grew this empire, he never let my uncle come here because of his safety reasons. Both of them found the woman they loved and got married together. My aunt gave birth to Jasper and after a year my mother gave birth to me. We both didn't grow up together. We only met on some special occasions. But then when I was 14 Jasper came here to get trained and work with dad. I still remember when I first saw him. When he came here he was shy and nerdy but the training started he changed. And before I knew this skinny boy was converted into a strong and muscled hunk, He looked like a Greek god with green eyes, light brown hairs and a million-dollar smile, with dimples. I hate his fucking dimples, they make him look, cute, hot, sexy at the same time. We enjoyed a lot together, we started sharing our secrets, we started understanding each other. When he had to go back to France because of my uncle's health issue, I cried like a 9-year-old, whose teddy was snatched away from her. The teddy who used to listen to her without questioning her stupidity. After my uncle's death, my father told him to come here but he said he will complete his studies in France.

After that incident shattered me, Jasper was there to help me come out of my nightmares but with two more persons, Kian and Cole.

I met them in France, Jasper told me that they are his companions in his gang. Both of them looked quite a decent but then Kian opened his mouth and from that moment I knew that he is quite a crack.

Cole had always been quite serious when it comes to working. He is "I don't give a fuck" kind of person. He never argues about anything, whereas there is not a single day when Kian had not tried to piss me off. He is a dumbo but he never let me cry, he tried every shittiest joke he had to make me laugh. 

I never really knew how I got this close with these two strangers but one thing that I know is that these three persons are my family.
