Lucia and Maeve are twins.
Maeve is the innocent one- her eyes yet to see the darkness of the cruel world. A happy go lucky girl, who loves everyone. Though very hardworking and dependable.
But not everyone can be as innocent as her.
Then there's L...

"I LOVE IT WHEN YOU CALL ME SễNORITAAA..."
Resting my head against the cool glass of the car window, I tried to tune out the horrible screeching that my siblings apparently considered singing, when in reality it sounded worse than scratching claws on a chalkboard.
And that's something to say.
Toying with my phone I gazed at Maeve and Asher as they both kept screaming whatever song the music system played with a goofy smile on both of their faces. I was really glad that despite the numerous problems and issues, atleast one of us was happy by the sudden changes in our lives.
It was not like I was sad, but at the same time I wasn't happy either. I was somewhat neutral—not really knowing what to feel. I had secrets that I wasn't sure if I could trust them with.
Checking the rear view mirror, my eyes met Ryder's, who was looking at me an unreadable expression that was replaced with the cold harsh look in mere seconds.
This was yet another problem on the long list.
My brother was hell bent on proving that I had some ulterior motives to harm his family, when in reality he was the one risking their safety by siding with whatever his sources were.
On the other hand his determination made me curious as to what exactly did those people told him. I mean It has to be something huge and extreme for him to harbor the feelings of hate towards his own blood. Right?
Not that blood makes any difference, I know it firsthand.
But the fact that he believed whatever those people spilled without doing any background check on me, baffles me to no end. How can someone who is a part of the Italian mafia be so stupid?
It was same as committing a murder without knowing how to get rid of the body.
Plain Idiotic.
That is unless they used his weakness to manipulate him in thinking I was a threat and for that the person has to be someone close to us, someone in the inner circle— who knew that my brothers were going to adopt us, even before they knew it themselves.
Which means that everything was planned.
The accident of my so called parents, my brothers magically being able to track us down after trying hard to find us for years, them manipulating Ryder. Everything.
The only fortunate thing was that, they didn't know my real identity, which meant they didn't have slightest clue about Luca and atleast he was safe from this mess.
But Matteo wasn't. Neither was anyone else.
It was certain that I had to do something, anything— before they strike us. And playing them in their own game was the only way out.
