Mirabella
I was carried by Vincent to the dining room after them bickering that who'll take me.. They literally played rock paper scissors to decide and I never saw someone sulk so much for not winning..
I sat down between dad and Antonio.. Grandpa and grandma sat at the head chairs and on the other side was Dante beside him and Xander then Vincent whle Ezaikel sat beside Antonio.. Thank god I don't have to see him while eating.. The food smelled nice but it made me equally nauseous.. I paled when the covers were removed and saw seafood.. I am dangerously allergic to it and can't even bare being around it.. I felt my nose ich and I sneezed turning away.. I got up and moved back to not trigger more symptoms..
"Don't tell me you're allergic to seafood like Isabella.. "
Dad said and Antonio quickly got up to soothe me..
"Are you allergic baby? "
I nodded and he handed me some tissue..
"Oh my.. I should have asked before telling the cook to make the food!"
Grandma said and I shook my head..
"It's ok grandma.. No one knew about it.. You guys eat, I'll be okay! "
I assured and sneezed again making everyone tensed up.. Grandpa quickly told the maids to remove the food and I could finally breath..
"Come and drink some water.. "
He handed me a separated washed glass from the kitchen and I drank..
"You're severely allergic to seafood.. look at those red cheeks just by the smell of it.. "
Xander said and I nodded my head in embarrassment.. Soon the table was filled with many delicious looking dishes.. The last thing I remember eating is the cupcake and two spoons of soup that grandma made herself.. So I am pretty full..
Dad stacked my plate with bacon, eggs and some pasta.. I took small bites and already felt like puking.... The food tasted amazing but this is my limit..
"Why aren't you eating princess? There's lot more to try.. "
Antonio whispered and nudged at my uninjured hand a bit..
"I can't.. I'm full.. "
He frowned and stared at my plate.. then at me before whispering in my ear..
"If you don't finish up the food and try all, I'll put feeding pipe through your nose and trust me! That won't be pleasing.. "
My eyes widened and I quickly took a big bite of pasta and he smirked in victory..
It's been 6 days and I am frustrated.. At first they didn't bring my phone while coming.. They did buy me a brand new iPhone 16..Second I'm calling Puto everyday but he's not receiving.. I even called the neighbor auntie and it went to voice mail every time.. I threw my phone in the bed and signed.. I recovered pretty fast because Xander and Antonio took care of me very well..They ran every test on me until they were satisfied that I'm pretty healthy but like I said, I did fractured my ribs..
But thank goodness they didn't see my back..Or else I'll have to answer so many questions..I felt very loved and even Ezaikel apologized.. But thinking of Puto made me feel both guilty and sad.. Here I am enjoying with my family while he is lonely and far away.. I can't even contact him..
I got up and walked out of Vincent's room as mine is still being renovated.. I walked in the living room and saw two unknown person with dad and Grandpa.. I froze on my spote when those two noticed and stared at me dead in the eye.. I gulped and bowed a bit to them and approached dad..
"Dad...? "
Dad's back was facing me so he turned around..
"Yes Principessa? "
Both of the unknown man's face soften immediately..
"Is she Mirabella? "
The one with black pushed back hair asked and dad nodded before pulling me on his lap..
"Yes.. My baby.. "
I smiled and surprisingly both of them smiled at me..
"Hi baby.. I'm your uncle Ace! "
The black haired one said smiling.. Oh.. Grandma told me my Uncles name..
"Hello Uncle Ace.. "
I looked at the blonde haired man and he smiled at me..
"Hi Sweetheart.. I'm your Uncle Matteo.. "
His voice was deep but not deep like dad and Dante..
"Hello uncle Matteo.. I am Mirabella Alexander Russo.. Nice to meet you both.. "
They gave my dad a narrowed glace before smiling at me..
"Nice to meet you too Mira.. "
Uncle Ace replied and I smiled back at him.. I looked at him..
"Dad...? "
"Yes Principessa? "
I signed and spoke up..
"Can you tell the police uncle to check on Puto? I'm trying to reach to him for 6 days but no ones answering. "
I said and I felt him tensing up a bit..
"Umm princess.. Maybe he is not with his phone and doing something? "
I frowned...
"No.. The auntie is not picking up as well.. I'm worried dad.. Can we go back to DC? I want to see if he's good or not.. I swear I'll just check up on him and will come back! "
I whined but he hesitated..
"No Mirabella.. We can't.. I'll tell someone to look what's going on.. "
"But dad-"
He glared at me which shut me up immediately..
"I said no right? If you still insist then I'll not take his guardianship.. "
I frowned and got up..
"That's not what we had agreed upon... You said you'll take him in if I come with you right then... "
He leaned back and crossed his arm over his chest..
"What if his guardians don't want to? I'll not drag this matter further for someone who is not even related to me... Honestly, why would I care about him? Who is he to me? "
I could tell the irritation in his voice and it really hurted me. I thought he will be good to me..
"But you promised! "
I said and he frowned..
"Don't you dare to raise your voice at me! I did what it took to get you back.. "
I flinched and took a step back.. Tears filled my eyes and ran down my cheeks...
"Get back to your room and don't roam around.. We'll call you when it's time for dinner.. "
His tone became harsh and I didn't see a bit of remorse for what he did right now..
"You lied... "
I whispered while not moving from my place which seemed to anger him more..
"GO. TO. YOUR. ROOM!! “
He yelled and I flinched before running towards Dante's room.. I regret trusting him.. I thought I finally got the dream father I always wanted but everyone is same and so is he.. He is like Damon too.. I'll never forgive him..
I opened Dante's door and didn't see him as he went out early.. I slipped inside his covers and covered my head with pillow.. I'll never talkl to him.. He is so bad!
Alexander
I fist turned white from clutching hard as I saw Mirabella running away.. I froze as I realized what I did... I did what I was afraid of happening..
The past 6 days went like bulldozer on me as I had to sort both mafia and business.. Though my three sons helped and even Xander and Antonio helped time to time, I was frustrated.. Getting back to New York is still risky and we are thinking to shift to our secret villa..
Peter is still missing and I'm shocked that there is no trace of him anywhere.. Other then that couple who saw George and Michael, they were seen no where.. My frustration was building up and I knew I'll lash out to anyone but I never meant to do it on my principessa.
"Was that necessary Alexander? She asked nicely though.. You could have told her the truth to avoid conflict but you stirred up her trust on you... "
Matteo said and Dad looked at me with dark eyes.. He unexpectedly built an unique bond with Mirabella in a short time.. Mirabella started to trust me too with little glimpse of her past.. But I fucked up..
"Trust is really important in a relationship.. Once broken, it can't be repaired.. "
Ace said and I rubbed my face with my hands..
"I know.. I just.. "
I was at loss of words on what to say.. I heart twisted at the scene of her tears falling and how she flinched.. I am so sorry..
