"Here take my phone and call Antonio" He said and threw his phone to me which I caught with ease. I went through his contacts and saw a contact that said 'Antonio' and clicked on it. After two rings he finally answered

"Emilio have you gotten her?. Is she okay?, How'd...." He kept asking questions upon questions

"Jesus shut the fuck up. Some men are after us and we need your help. I don't wanna die young!" I yelled at him. Things could go really badly right now, I forget to bring a gun with me and the only thing I have here is a stupid dagger which I doubt would do anything

"Hold on Gabriella, I'm sending my men over, they'll protect you..."

"Yeah yeah just hurry up" I said hurriedly and cut the call

"He's sending his men over. Drive faster, we need to loose them. Take a left" I said and Emilio gave me a look as if I were crazy

"I don't think so..." He trailed off

"Men I said take a goddamn left, I know what I'm doing. Trust me" I said in frustration and he finally took a left

"Great now in the next turn take a right. Gotta play with their heads" I said

"Huh?..." He asked in confusion and I rolled my eyes

"Take a right, then at the other turn a left. By this time they would have already probably realized what you're tryna do so they'd expect you to take a right turn after the left but you turn left again" I said and I saw realization dawn on him, he finally seemed to understand what I was talking about and did what I said and we lost them

"Smart...no need to stress your pretty little head anymore. Backup will handle them" He said and we made our way to the airport got on the plane and took off

I felt sleepy but I couldn't sleep. There's no way I'm sleeping on a plane with a guy I barely know when I don't even have a weapon with me

"Get some rest bambina. I can see how tired you are" he said and I shook my head

"Don't worry I'm good" I said plainly

Throughout the plane ride, he kept trying to make small talks with me but I just gave him one word answers. He probably understood that I wasn't in the mood and left me alone

I took out my phone and saw dozens of calls from Enzo and I sighed. He's gonna be so mad, eh I'll talk to him when I'm off the plane

____________________ We finally got off the plane and walked to a black car that was already waiting for us. Seeing the car I could already make up that they're rich rich

The car:



The drive was long and suffocating. How will they treat me?. I don't usually care about this kinda shit but something in me wants them to like me. Will they torture me like him?. Emilio seemed to notice my distress as he held my hand

"You're do great. They already love you bambina there's nothing to worry about" he tried reassuring me and I just nodded

After sometime we arrived at an estate. Damn it was soo big and then we suddenly stopped at the center, infront of a big mansion

"You guys live in an estate?!" I asked as I gawked at the beautiful house

"This estate is ours, we own pretty much this entire city" he said nonchalantly like it was nothing. Hello owning an entire city is everything but nothing!

The house:



"Woah" I exclaimed still gawking at the mansion. It was so huge, I kinda felt bad that while I was suffering and living in a barely stable house, they lived here, in so much luxury. But I know it's not their faults tho

"This is your home now too bambina. We won't let anyone take you away from us again" Emilio somehow read my mind. He rang the doorbell and hid me behind him.

He went in and after two minutes, he came back out and motioned for me to come in. When I got in I could barely keep myself together, the house is freakin beautiful!

"Who's she?. A whore?" I heard someone say, drifting my attention to the other people in the room.

Eight pairs of eyes stared at me curiously and my eyes widened. Holy shit I've got nine brothers!. Damn mom you sure popped alot

"No she isn't a whore and watch your language!" Emilio said with tightly clenched jaws

"Guys look...she looks just like padre (father)" Another guy that looked slightly younger than Emilio said

"Wait does that mean that Padre (father) screwed another woman?" The one who looked to be the youngest blurted out and was immediately slapped across the head by another guy who glared at him

"Shut up. How is that possible?. It isn't right?" The same guy said somewhat confused

"Oh my God do you guys have any brains. She is standing right infront of you, you idioti (idiots)" Emilio said exasperatedly

"Well how are we supposed to know who she is if you don't tell us!" Another guy snapped

"Enough. This is your sister, Gabriella De'Luca" Emilio said and all of them stilled in their places, eyes wide open

"Liar!" One yelled out suddenly

"Open your goddamn eyes you idiot. She looks just like padre (father). Of course she is our bambina" one of them screeched and pulled me into a hug. Making me stiffen, I hate physical contact

"Sorry I'm just really excited to see you again. I'm Leonardo" he said with a smile and I forced one into my face. He seems nice enough...

"Okay enough of that. Time for introductions" An intimidating voice said and I turned to the owner of the voice. He looked like he's the oldest

"I'm Antonio, your eldest brother" he said and I nearly choked on my own spit. Antonio...the one I talked to over the phone. Oh shit I'm dead

"I'm Alessandro, your second oldest brother. It's nice to have you back bambina" The one standing close to Antonio said with half a smile and I nodded

"I'm Domenico and I'm extremely happy that you're back bambina" Another guy said with a warm smile and I nodded

"You already know me I'm Emilio" Emilio said

"Stephano" the guy who called me a whore said with a sneer, looking at me in a condescending manner.

"What a bastard we're gonna have a problem with this one" my inner voice said and I hummed in agreement

"Xander" another guy basically growled at me

"Do I have to whip someone's ass?" My inner voice said again

"No" I said sternly, it's not like I care about what they think about me

"I'm Xavier, I'm this idiots twin" A guy who looked identical to Xander said with a big smile and hugged me again, making me want to recoil. I get that he's just being nice but you can introduce yourself without touching

"Hey I'm Matteo, you're really beautiful bambina" Another one who seemed to be a year or two older than me said with a bright smile showing his dimples. Okay this one's cute

"Can I go now?. I don't like this shit, first that bitch Emilia took her away from us and now she dumped her on us again with her stupid death..."

I didn't let stephano finish what he had to say before giving him a punch in his face. I heard a very satisfying crack from his nose and it immediately began bleeding. The nerve of that bastard!
