Ella POV:

"I'm sorry Ella, but it's been ten months now. We can't keep waiting for a miracle to happen when we know that nothing is going to happen" Alessandro said.

"No, b-but..." I stuttered.

"We're leaving in an hour, you're welcome to join us" he said, as he stood up and left.

I was left alone in Dante's office, with my hands trembling in disbelief of what Alessandro had just told me. Dante, couldn't possibly be dying today, could he? NO! I refuse to believe that the guy who saved me and loved me, is going to die. He can't die, not yet. We still had so many things to do together, and now we won't be able to do any of them, because he's about to die. O-oh my god, how is this even real?

I collected my thoughts and headed down to our bedroom and walked into the bathroom to take a shower. I had to distract myself with something, anything. I can't think about Dante- NO! Don't think about it Ella, just don't! Save yourself the pain and sorrow. Dante's gone... Tears started rolling down my face as I stood in the shower, with my trembling hand over my mouth in disbelief about what is about to happen in about an hour. I dried my tears away and stepped out of the shower and changed into my clothes. I put my hair in a bun and made my way to the main lounge, to see everyone already waiting for me.

"Are you coming boss?" a man asked me.

"Mhm, I want to say my last goodbye..." I said, fighting back tears.

"Let's go" Alessandro said, grabbing a hold of Camilla's hand.

Camilla, Alessandro, and I drove together to the hospital. And in about an hour we made it to the hospital. Everyone was already waiting for us at the main entrance of the hospital, many crying and some just standing silently as we walked up to them. We all walked to Dante's room and waited outside his room for the doctor to come.

"Are you ready?" the doctor asked.

"N-no, but let's just go..." I stuttered as we walked into his room.

Dante was silently sleeping on the bed as we all surrounded him. I stepped next to him and held his hand in mine.

"Dante, the first day that I met you and you introduced yourself to me, I thought you were crazy that you made me marry you, I thought that my life couldn't get any worse. But my life got flipped upside down, with you in it, you changed me for the better, you made me want to live. You showed me what family really means and that family doesn't have to be by blood but can be by loyalty as well. You made me so happy, that I cannot even begin to explain it, I love you so much and promise to love you forever, till my last breath. I love you, toi idiot..." I said, as a single tear rolled down my cheek. (you idiot)

"Are you all ready for me to pull the plug?" the doctor asked.

We all nodded in response.

"Three...two...o-" Camilla suddenly stopped him.

"STOP!" Camilla yelled.

"W-what?" the doctor asked.

"Look, his pulse is b-back!" Camilla pointed out.

"O-oh my god, h-he's awake" the doctor said.

"B-but..." I stuttered.

"W-what the h-hell?" Dante stuttered, adjusting his eyes to the bright light.

"Y-you're alive..." I stuttered, hugging him tightly.

"I'm finally awake!?" he said, hugging me back.

"How is this possible, you were- you were going to die" I mumbled as tears rolled down my cheeks.

"It is possible for someone to wake up from a coma, we were lucky enough to have not pulled the plug immediately and that Camilla saw the pulse" the doctor said.

"I thought I was going to lose you, toi idiot" I mumbled, kissing him. (you idiot)

"I promised you that I was going to be okay, didn't I?" he said, smiling at me.

"I love you so much" I said.

"I know I heard everything you said" he said, with a smile.

"When can he leave the hospital?" I asked.

"We need to keep him for about a month or so, to see if everything is fine and to see if he forgot to do anything, like walking, eating, drinking, etc" the doctor replied.

"That's good, I'm just glad you're okay" I said, with a smile.

"Boss, should we leave you alone?" a man asked.

"Camilla and Alessandro can stay; the rest may leave" I replied.

"Of course, see you home boss" the man said as they all left except for Camilla and Alessandro.

"Boss?" Dante asked, with a playful smirk.

"Yeah, someone had to take over the mafia while you were taking a short nap of ten months" I said, throwing him back a smirk.

"Mhm, well I'm awake now, so are you still the boss?" he asked.

"Till you leave this place and regain your strength then yes" I said.

"I like this bossy part of you, how about you keep this for the bedroom" he said, with a smirk.

"Oh lord" Camilla said, rolling her eyes.

"And there ladies and gentlemen is the Dante we all know" Alessandro said as we all laughed in response.

~~~

"Boss, do we have any missions this morning?" a man asked me as I entered the main lounge.

"No, I'm going to go visit Dante actually" I replied, grabbing the car keys.

"No need cara mia" a voice said, stepping through the front door. (My darling)

I quickly turned around and ran up to hug him and he caught me in his arms.

"You're home!" I yelled in excitement.

"Ehi, anche tu mi sei mancato, cara mia" Dante said, kissing my forehead. (hey, I missed you too, my darling)

"I have no clue what you just said but sure" I said, with a grin.

"Dante, you're back!" Alessandro and Camilla yelled.

"Hey you two" Dante said, hugging them.

"Ehi signore" the men said all together. (hey sir)

"What happened to boss?" he asked.

"That's because I'm the boss" I smirked.

"Hmm, I forgot about that, boss" he said, with a chuckle.

"I think we should catch up on what happened whilst you were asleep" I said, grabbing his hand.

"Lead the way boss" he said.

I lead us to our bedroom and locked the door behind us.

"Why'd you bring me here and lock the door?" he asked.

"I missed you too much" I said, pressing my lips against his.

"Well, I missed you too" he mumbled.

"The first time I wasn't ready, but now I am" I said, looking up at him, in his ocean blue eyes.

"Are you sure?" he asked.

I simply nodded as he picked me up in his arms and walked us to the bed.

* * * *

"Good morning you two" Camilla said.

"Good morning" I said, sitting down at the table next to Dante.

"How's your first month back home Dante?" Alessandro asked Dante.

"Good" Dante replied, smirking at me.

"Mhm, what's for breakfast?" I asked, trying to contain my cheeks from turning red.

"Pancakes" Camilla replied as Dante's phone started ringing.

"Ciao?" Dante answered. (hello)

"Who is it babe?" I asked as I saw his eyes widen in shock.

"Come cazzo è scappato?" Dante yelled. (How the fuck did he escape?)

"Babe, what's wrong?" I asked worriedly.

"Cazzo trovalo!" Dante shouted as he hung up. (Fucking find him!)

"Who escaped?" Camilla asked Dante.

"Escaped? What is going on?" I asked, turning to Dante with a glare.

"Marco escaped!" Dante yelled.

"W-what? No, that's impossible" I stuttered.

"Well it is, I need to go" Dante said suddenly standing up.

"Go where?" I asked.

"To talk to Adrian on how we're going to get him back, we can't just let him run free, not after all the shit he did to us!" Dante yelled.

"I'm coming!" I snapped, standing up.

"No, you're not" Dante said with a sharp tone, pointing at me to stay here.

"Yes, I am, remember I'm the boss, not you!" I said.

"Fine, let's go!" he said, as we walked out to the garage.

We got in the car and Dante drove so fast I thought I was going to vomit.

"Dante, slow down, I'm going to be sick!" I said, holding my stomach.

"I'm sorry babe, it's just that I can't believe that he escaped" Dante said, placing his hand on my thigh.

"It's fine, we'll catch him, I promise" I said, giving a reassuring smile as we pulled up to Adrian's mansion.

"Let's go" Dante said, taking my hand in his.

"Ah Mr and Mrs Romano," a man said. "Come on in. Adrian's in his office"

"Thank you" Dante said, as he led us to Adrian's office.

"Adrian, we need to talk!" Dante yelled.

"Yes, I know. This is all my fault, I'm sorry. I should've kept more men on him or something, I'm sorry" Adrian said, with his head hung low.

"SORRY!? You think sorry is going to fix this!?" Dante yelled, heading towards him with fury in his eyes.

"Dante calm down!" I said, grabbing his arm before he did something he'd regret.

"I'll calm down when this asshole pays for the mistake he did!" Dante shouted ripping my hand off of him.

"Dante, please listen to me" Adrian said, raising his hands in defense.

"DANTE ROMANO!" I yelled, even louder than he was yelling.

"Stop it! You're giving me a headache; can we just talk about this like normal people and try and get him back!" I said, walking towards the two men.

"I'm sorry, I just can't believe he escaped!" Dante said.

"Well neither can I but yelling at each other won't get us anywhere. So, if we could just sit down and talk then maybe we can actually discuss of how we'll find him" I said.

"She's right you know, maybe that's why she's the better boss" Adrian said with a chuckle.

"Hmm, come on let's sit down and start talking" I said.

"So we know that he was being kept here with you, how many men did you have on him?" Dante asked.

"Five, and they were all best trained at fighting, so I have no clue how he escaped" Adrian replied.

"He didn't have any weapons, so that made it even more impossible, wait- What if he didn't escape?" I said.

"What do you mean?" Dante asked me.

"We all know that he can't just fight five men with no weapons at all, so what if someone was helping him, what if he paid someone, or someone wasn't actually in your mafia and was pretending to be so he could get Marco out" I said.

"The lets' go and talk to the five men!" Adrian said abruptly standing up from his seat.

"Let's go" Dante and I said at the same time.

"Follow me" he said as we followed him.

We walked down the corridor and made a left at the end. There was an old looking door and Adrian scanned his palm and the door slowly creaked open to reveal a spiral staircase going down, into absolute darkness. Adrian walked in first then me and then Dante. The stairs were so old that they creaked with every step we took, and the smell was even worse, it smelled like ashes, like something was being burned wherever we were going. We continued going down the stairs when we finally made it, it was a huge room with doors all around it that probably lead to prison rooms or where they kept their prisoners to torture them. There was a table and thee sofas around it in the middle of the room with five men sitting down and drinking on the sofa. These were probably some of the men that looked after the men that are kept down here, I almost feel bad for people who are kept down here, it's dark and scary and the smell this place has is disgusting. As we walked in the men turned to look at us and the room from noisy and talkative turned silent in a split second.

"Stand up all of you!" Adrian shouted.

"босс" all the men said. (Boss)

"What does that mean?" I whispered into Dante's ear.

"I don't know but I'm guessing it means boss" he whispered back.

"No one move! These two are Dante and Ella Romano, the leaders of the most powerful mafia, you treat them with respect!" Adrian shouted and they all nodded in response except for one. He had blonde hair and a long blonde beard that was braided and tattoos covering his neck and arms.

"You, why didn't you nod?" I asked walking towards him.

"Because I don't show respect to women who hold power" he replied sharply with no emotions.

"Do you not show respect to your boss either? Fils de pute!" I yelled. I grabbed his arm pulling him towards me and swiftly turned him around and twisted his arm. Everyone just stared in shock. (son of a bitch)

"Ow, what the hell is wrong with you?" he yelled in pain.

"Ella what are you doing?" Dante asked.

"We have our guy, this guy is the one who helped Marco escaped" I said, turning towards them, still holding the guy from his arms, and slowly twisting them further so he doesn't try and escape.

"How do you know that?" Adrian asked.

"Because when I was kidnapped, this guy was the one who kidnapped Camilla and I. Did you seriously think I forgot you?" I yelled.

"So, you remember me?" he said with a smirk.

"Yes, and I want to know where Marco is, NOW!" I yelled.

"And why would I tell you?" he asked, with a chuckle. "You're just a girl, what are you going to do, throw your heels at me?"

"Throw him in a room," I said to one of the men. "He's about to regret his whole fucking existence"

"Ella-" Adrian said.

I threw him a death glare and followed the men and Dante and Adrian followed right behind me.

"Have you ever tortured anyone before?" Adrian asked me.

"Course I have, what do you think happened to those men who dropped dead?" I asked, with a smirk.

"You're scary now" Dante said, crossing his arms with a grin.

"Hmm, well I was the boss of the most powerful and feared mafia for ten months now eleven if still am the boss, I don't know" I said as the man was tied to a chair.

"Course you are you're actually making my job a whole lot easier" Dante said.

"Well enough talking, more torturing" I said, with a smirk.

"If you think I'm going to tell you anything you're wrong, you can kill me for all I care" the man said.

"What's your name?" I asked, crossing my arms as Adrian placed weapons on a small table next to me.

"His name is Dimitri" Adrian said.

"Thank you. Now Dimitri what am I going to have to do for you to speak?" I asked.

"Kiss my ass" he said.

I quickly slapped him.

"That's the best you got girl?" he asked.

"It's Ella to you, you connard!" I yelled punching him in the face, making his nose bleed.

"It's actually Mrs Romano" Dante said, with a smirk.

"Did you like marry him for his money, you slut" Dimitri said.

"What the fuck did you call me!" I yelled, grabbing a knife, and pressing it against his neck. "Talk right now or I'll slit your throat you asshole!"

"Whoah, woah" he said, narrowing his eyes at the knife.

"Where did Marco go?" I shouted.

"I-I don't know, I really don't, he just said something about fleeing Italy" he said.

"He left Italy, how the fuck are we going to find him now?" I shouted.

"I don't know" Adrian huffed.

"Well I do know where he would go but I'm not sure if he did go there or not" Dimitri said.

"Well, tell us, I don't have all day!" I said.

"Let's make a deal, I tell you and you do something for me" he said.

"Okay fine, what?" I asked.

"I'll tell you if you have sex with me" he said.

"What the fuck!? N-" before I could even finish my reply Dante grabbed him from the collar of his shirt and started punching him non-stop in the face.

"Dante, calm down!" Adrian shouted, pulling him away from Dimitri, which now had bruises and blood all over his face.

"I'll fucking beat you to death, figlio di puttana" Dante yelled. (son of a bitch)

"Dante calm down!" I said. "Now tell us where Marco went!"

"I told you if you want your answer, you'll have to sleep with me" he said.

"Is sex all you men seem to think about?" I yelled.

"No, but it's what you girls are for" Dimitri said.

"Okay, that's it!" I snapped.

I grabbed the knife and jabbed it through his hand, and through the chair.

"OW!" he screamed.

"Now will I have to stab the other one as well or will you actually tell me where Marco would go?" I asked.

"Fine, fine I'll tell you! New York" he said.

"See was that so hard?" I asked, pulling the knife out. Blood. A lot of it, gushed out of his hand.

"OW! Help me at least!" he yelled.

"No," I said. "Actually I'll do something better for you"

I grabbed another knife and held it to his neck.

"Wait, let's talk about this" he said.

"No need" I said, slitting his neck open.

I put the knife on the table and grabbed a cloth on my way out to clean my bloody hands.

"So, who's going to New York?" a man asked as we walked outside.

"No one is" I replied.

"What?" Adrian asked.

"Let's be honest here Adrian, New York is a huge state, and we would never find him like that, so other than we go and waste our time if he isn't even there, how about we send Camilla and Alessandro? They can also see it as a holiday and some alone time for themselves and they can look for Marco there while we're here trying to talk to other men who worked for him before to see if they know anything about where he could have went" I explained.

"No, I'm not sending my sister and Alessandro on a holiday all by themselves!" Dante said, glaring at me.

"Oh come on, it's just for a few weeks" I said.

"Ella is right if we go there, we could just be wasting our time but if we send Camilla and Alessandro, we can cover more ground with them there and us here asking men about Marco" Adrian agreed with me.

"Fine, but only because this is work and business" Dante said.

"Thank you, now we should get going" I said.

"Of course, thank you for the help Ella" Adrian said, giving me a smile.

"What? Do I not exist anymore?" Dante asked.

"You did nothing but get jealous over what Dimitri said" Adrian said.

"Yeah, well if your wife just got harassed you would beat the shit out of him as well," Dante said, grabbing my hand. "We're leaving, goodbye"

~~~

"So, all we have to do is ask them, I'm sure they won't say no" I said, as we both walked into the main lounge.

"I still don't really like this plan" Dante said.

"Yeah, well it's the best shot we have at finding him" I said.

"Hey, you guys are back," Alessandro said. "So, what happened?"

"Where's Camilla?" I asked.

"She's talking with her mother" Alessandro replied.

"Mum's still here, what the fuck is she still doing here!?" Dante yelled, as Camilla and his mum came downstairs.

"Maybe because you were in the hospital in a coma, and I was worried" his mum said, as they walked over to us. There were some men in the room drinking and listening to our conversation in silence.

"Okay, okay, can we please stop yelling!" I shouted and they quickly shut up.

"What did you want?" Camilla asked.

"We need you and Alessandro to go to New York on a mission to find Marco," I replied. "And you can see this as a holiday because you'll be going alone, just the two of you"

"Oh, that's fine with me" Camilla said, with a huge grin.

"Yeah, we could do that" Alessandro agreed.

"Good, so you leave tomorrow morning, and you have to report back if you find anything about Marco, got it?" I asked.

"Got it, boss" Camilla said.

"You know I could get used to you being the boss" Dante said, with a smirk growing on his face.

"Well you could just take back the title anytime you want" I said, kissing him.

"Well, I'll go get packing" Camilla said.

"And you get the fuck out!" Dante yelled, pointing at his mother.

"But why?" his mum asked.

"Because this is my home, so my rules and I say you fucking leave right now and never return!" Dante yelled.

"But why do you want mum to leave?" Camilla asked.

"Yeah, why?" I asked, agreeing with Camilla.

"Because I heard your conversation with my mother when I was in a coma, about the fact that you had no other choice but to leave us with father! You did have a choice, we always have a choice, you just chose the wrong fucking choice! You shouldn't have left us with that monster, so yes dear mother, you made the wrong choice, you left us, now I'm going to leave you. You said that running away was your best option, so now you're going to do what you're best at, running away" Dante yelled with fury in his eyes.

"B-but son, listen to me..." his mum stuttered.

"Get. The. Fuck. Out." Dante shouted.

"Dante please, I want to be here for you and Ella, for your children, I want to be their grandmother, please Dante" she begged.

"I will never allow you to see my future children, now GET OUT!" he yelled, and this time she ran out with tears in her eyes.

"Dante-" I said.

"Leave me alone Ella, I'm not in the mood to talk" he said, walking off, clenching his fists.

"Is he going to be, okay?" I asked.

"Leave him alone Ella" Alessandro said as he walked away with Camilla.

"Go to your rooms, all of you!" I yelled to the men, and they quickly nodded and left to their rooms.

I breathed out and walked over to the sofa and sat down. I felt so useless, I wanted to help Dante, but he made it very clear that he doesn't want to talk to anyone right now. I tossed my head back in frustration and grabbed a glass and poured myself some wine. I took a sip when suddenly a guy sat down next to me.

"Who the hell are you?" I asked, drying my eyes from any tears that might have rolled down my cheeks.

"My name is AJ and I'm looking for the boss, because I'd like to join this mafia" he replied.

"Well, you're looking at the boss right now" I said, taking another sip from my wine.

"The boss is a girl?" he asked.

"Yeah, so?" I asked.

"No reason," he replied. "I just thought the boss was Dante Romano. Um I was thinking of talking to you about joining the mafia"

"Dante's my husband and at the moment I'm the boss, but if you'd like to talk to him, I wouldn't really suggest it right now" I said, standing up.

"Um, that's fine, show me the way to your office, Mrs. Romano" he said.

"Follow me" I said, walking to my office.

We walked to my office in silence, only our steps could be heard. I slowly turned the doorknob and walked into my office, to see someone sitting in the office chair.

"Babe, what are you doing in here?" I asked, walking towards him.

"Who the hell is he?" Dante yelled standing up.

"Calm down, this is AJ, he's thinking of joining our mafia and I led him to my office to talk and found you here. Now you tell me what you're doing here" I said.

"This is my office cara mia" he said, with a smirk. (my darling)

"Are you drunk?" I asked, looking at the empty, opened bottle on his desk.

"No" he said.

"Go to bed" I said.

"Sure, but only if you come with me" he said, grabbing my hand.

"I have work to do, now go" I said, pulling my hand back.

"Oh come on babe, forget this guy, let's go and have fun" he said.

I slapped him, "Dante, BED. NOW!" I yelled, pushing him.

"Fine, you're no fun" he said, finally leaving the office.

"Um, I'm sorry about him, take a seat" I said, sitting down in my chair and he sat across from me.

"So, I would really like to start working as one of your men, if you would want to that is" he said.

"Right, and what do you think would make you a good man to my mafia" I said, looking him straight in the eyes.

"I, uh, I can hack any device in a short amount of time" he stuttered.

"Are you nervous?" I asked.

"Yeah, well your mafia is the most powerful mafia ever so yeah, kind of" he said.

"Never admit to anything, a very important rule in the mafia" I said.

"Oh um, I'm sorry" he said.

"And please don't ever apologise" I said, rolling my eyes.

"Right" he nodded.

"You got the job, now leave" I said.

"W-what?" I asked.

"You got the job, now leave before I change my mind" I said.

"Right, thank you" he said, leaving the room.

"Please tell me you didn't just tell him he got the job without testing his ability" Alessandro said, walking in.

"I have a headache, and you're making it worse" I said.

"Mhm, why did you just recruit him?" he asked.

"He looked like he had potential and I couldn't put up with talking to someone anymore with the headache I have at the moment" I said, typing something on the computer.

"Ella are you pregnant?" he asked, making me widen my eyes and look at him.

"What the fuck, are you insane, no!" I said.

"Don't fucking lie to me!" he shouted.

"Fine, yes I am, just don't tell Dante" I said.

"What? But you have to" he said.

"I know, I just still haven't figured out how yet" I said.

"Well I'm wishing you the best of luck, now I need to go make sure that Camilla went to bed and isn't actually up watching some stupid series on Netflix" Alessandro said with a chuckle.

"OK, good night and good luck for tomorrow morning" I said as he left the office.

As soon as Alessandro left my office I went back to work, I signed a few documents and replied to some emails. I looked over to my phone to check the time and it was now midnight, which meant that I have been working for way too long. I closed my laptop and grabbed my phone and made my way to the bedroom. The whole mansion was dead silent and the only thing I could hear were my heels on the hard wooden floors.

I finally made it to the bedroom, and I opened the door to see Dante still in his suit fast asleep, he was hugging the pillow with his arms and his legs intertwined in the sheets. I made my way to the bed and turned him around, and to my surprise he didn't open his eyes, how tired was he? Oh right he was drunk as fuck. I proceeded to unbutton his shirt and pulled it off to see something I have never seen before, tattooed on his upper left side of his chest, directly on his heart. It was my name in cursive, when did he tattoo my name? I slowly traced my fingers over it, to feel his heartbeat, beating evenly. I quickly pulled my hand away and threw his shirt on a chair. I walked to the wardrobe to change into my pyjamas. I walked out to see him still sleeping peacefully. I made my way to the bed and covered both of us with the sheets and hugged him from behind and fell asleep.

~~~

I woke up the next morning to see that I was alone on the bed, which meant that Dante had already woken up before me and left. I rubbed my eyes from the lack of sleep I was getting. I got out of bed and was trying to decided what to do for today, but first I had to change. I saw that Dante's white buttoned shirt was still on the chair from where I left it the last night. I grabbed it and put it on and put on shorts and walked downstairs to the kitchen to eat something. I still can't get the tattoo out of my head, when did he get it, and why? I quickly was brought back to reality when I bumped into someone in the main lounge. Wait, how did I get here? Wasn't I going to the kitchen?

I looked up at the person I bumped into to see my father staring down at me, with eyes so dark that even the night feared them. I could see that Dante and Alessandro were there standing beside my father. I smiled at Dante and looked back at my father's eyes, and took a step back, to keep a distance between us.

"Papa?" I said in a French accent.

"Hi there El" he said, with a smile.

"What are you uh doing here?" I asked.

"I wanted to see you" he replied.

"I uh don't want to talk to you" I said, about to walk away when he grabbed me from my arm and stopped me from walking any further.

"Please I just want to fix our relationship" he said, as I turned to face the three men again.

"Fix it? You had a lifetime to do that, and you didn't, so what makes you think I'll actually listen to you now?" I asked, gulping the lump in my throat.

"I know, that's why I want to talk" he said, letting go of my arm.

"Well I don't want to, so just leave my life FOREVER!" I screamed, making the three men flinch.

"Please Ella, I just want to see how you're holding up" he said.

"Baby ready to go?" Camilla asked, running downstairs.

"Yeah, just a sec" Alessandro replied.

"Oh Mr. Avril, I didn't know you were here" Camilla said.

"Nice to meet you, you must be Dante's younger sister, right?" my dad asked her.

"Yes, that's right. Well it was really nice meeting you, but Alessandro and I really need to get going now" Camilla said, with a smile.

"Oh that's fine" my dad said.

"Why?" I asked abruptly.

"What?" my dad asked.

"Why do you treat others with kindness and me, your own daughter, you neglect me and hate me!" I yelled, fighting tears.

"I'm trying to change and that's why I'm here, because I want to talk to you and fix things between us because I want to change" he said.

"CHANGE!? Change my ass!" I yelled, slapping him across the face, leaving a red mark of my hand on his face.

"I'm sorry Ella, I really am" he said, rubbing his face.

"It doesn't work like that dad, you don't just come back marching into my life thinking I'll forgive you" I said, my voice breaking and tears forming in my eyes.

"Ella please just listen to what I have to say" my dad pleaded.

"Yeah, we're going to go before we miss our flight" Alessandro said, grabbing Camilla's hand.

"Yeah, bye girl, I love you" Camilla said, hugging me tightly.

"I'm going to miss you so much" I said, pulling away from her.

"Well not as much as I'll miss you" she said.

"Bye Dante and please don't kill anyone while we're gone" Alessandro said, heading out the door with Camilla's hand in his as Dante rolled his eyes at his remark.

"The door is open, so you can just leave" I said, looking at my dad, crossing my arms over my chest.

"Ella please, just let me talk" he said raising his voice. Dante grabbed him from the back of his neck and pulled him.

"I said you could talk to her, I never said you could raise your voice at her!" Dante snapped, letting my father go, making my father almost topple to the ground.

"I'm sorry. Listen Ella I just want to talk to you" my dad said.

"Well I do-" I was saying as I was cut off throwing up on the floor.

"Babe, are you okay?" Dante asked grabbing my hair with one hand and my arm with the other.

"I didn't think this is how I would come to tell you" I said, raising my head from the floor.

"Tell me what?" Dante asked.
