Third Person POV:

Thirteen years ago:

Chaos occurred in the De Luca household.

It was late in the afternoon. The family was celebrating the triplets birthday. Today was supposed to be the best day until it wasn't.

In the morning

Flashback

Antonio woke up next to his beautiful wife. He gave her a kiss on the forehead and slowly stood up not to wake her up.

He went to the bathroom to wash up. He walked to the triplets room that they share together because they always wanted to be together,he admired their bond.

He opened the door slowly and saw that they were sleeping the same bed cuddling. He smiled softly at that. He walked to the bed and sat down softly. Today was the triplets birthday they were turning three today.

He softly stroked their heads making them stir in their sleep.

"Come on kids wake up", he said."Papa", said Athena." Hi ,Bambina",he said

"Guess who's birthday it is", said Antonio. Those words made the triplets sit up straight.

"It's our bwirtday,it's our bwirtday",screamed Ares. "Yes it is", said Antonio with a smile on his face.

"Come on let's get you guys dressed, so that we can see what your mama made for you for breakfast.

"Ok papa", the triplets said in unison.The triplets got dressed and went on their way downstairs with their father.

"Hi mama",the triplets said in unison. "Hi my babies", said the mother with a smile adorning her face."Come sit I made your favourite",the mother said. "Chocolate pancake",the triplets said in unison.

The triplets ran to the table to eat their food. While eating they heard footsteps coming towards them so they looked up.

"Happy birthday trips", said all their brothers after coming from the stairs."Don't run down the stairs kids", said their mother."Sorry mama", came their reply

The family all went to the table to eat their breakfast. The conversation was flowing on the table, discussing about the activities they are do today for the triplets birthday.

"So kids today we are going to the park t-" the father was cut off by gunshots. The kids were scared but the oldest son Alexander knew what was happening because he knew of his family's other business.

Antonio told Alexander to take the kids to the safe room and he will try to see what was happening.

The kids went running to the safe room when twenty men in black surrounded them and stopped them from going anywhere. Alexander told Elijah to run with everyone and he will stay behind. Elijah was reluctant but eventually left but Xander was being stubborn because he didn't want his older brother to get hurt. The two brothers were holding the triplets hands but before they could let Elijah take them the twenty men started attacking them.

The two boys started doing everything to stop the men from hurting the triplets. While they were fighting the men came from behind them and knocked them out.

The boys fell unconscious and at that moment the men took the scared triplets with them and escaped.

Antonio and Aurora arrived five minutes later and saw Alexander and Xander unconscious on the floor and the triplets nowhere to be found.

He kneeled in front of them and felt for their pulse when he felt one he breathed a sigh of relief. He told Aurora to stay here and wait for guards to come and take them to the doctor.

After he said those words he didn't wait for a response and dashed to the safe room to look for his other kids. He knocked on the door and his kids opened. He ran in and did a head count he saw all of them except for the triplets. "Where are the triplets he asked",he asked. "They were with Alexander and Xander", replied Elijah.

The realisation hit Antonio hard when he realised that the triplets were kidnapped. "Don", he heard one of his man call him. When he turned around he saw one of his most trusted man holding a letter in his hand. "We found this on the dinning room table", the man said.

Antonio took the letter and it said:

Dear De Luca Family

I took your dear triplets as revenge. You will never see them again. I hope you enjoy the miserable life you will live.

You decided to take something dear from me so I took something dear to you.

You will never see them again and that I can promise you.

With lots of hate

V

After reading that Antonio fell to the floor completely heart broken.
