"I've missed you, sis." Alessio whispered. It's been three minutes since we're like that and none of us still hadn't parted away. I guessed he missed me as much as I missed him.

Arabella cleared her throat, making both me and Alessio stare at her. "What?"

"Won't you tell us how you two know each other?" Arabella asked, crossing her arms as she leaned in the chair comfortably.

Alessio smiled before wrapping his arms around my shoulders. "This is my s-"

I cut him off instantly, not wanting him to blow my cover and everything else, "I was his best friend...we are meeting each other again after four years."

Alessio shot me a confused look. I silently pleaded him to play along and I was thankful when he did.

"Right...she's my best friend and we were really close." He replied with a smile, "I can't wait to catch up with you. How about right now yeah? Let's go to your room."

I nodded, knowing that he needed an explanation. However, I was glad that he understood what I was trying to tell him. I walked away with him following me behind.

As soon as entered after me, he closed the door and leaned against it with his arms crossed.

"Explain."

"They can't know that my real name is Azalea Romano and not Lea White. I don't work for the American mafia and all. I'm just here to do Sean a favour because the other assassins didn't want to come here as Enzo scared them and some did not want to leave their families- stupid assassins. Sean did not want to send them here unwillingly. Linda, the girl, who was supposed to come here- well her mother fell sick so she couldn't come so...here I am.." I explained.

"So you don't work for the American Mafia?" He asked to which I Shook my head, "That's right, I don't."

"You're an assassin though..right?" He asked to which I scoffed before smirking, "I'm not any assassin, brother. I'm the best of the bests. I'm the assassin." I stressed one the word 'the'.

Alessio's eyes widened when he heard what I said. I wouldn't blame him though. I never hid anything from Alessio, he was my brother and I knew that I could trust him.

"You're The assassin? The deadly?" He asked, unable to believe what he just heard.

I nodded. I was waiting for him to snap at me or tell me that what I do isn't good but on the contrary, he smiled brightly at me.

"I'm proud of you." He said, "My sister is the best assassin in the world. I can't be prouder."

"My brother is the best sniper in the world. I can't be prouder." I mimicked making him laugh.

"So, why are you taking down those men?" He asked, referring to Logan, Daniel and Lewis.

I sighed before replying, "They were involved in mom and dad's death."

"What?"

I nodded, "I was there. I saw it all...I saw them- I saw him."

|Third person's POV|

"Aren't you happy to see me again Liz?" Vladimir asked as he Bent down to Lea's mother and grabbed her chin in between his fingers.

"Fuck you!" Elizabeth spit in his face.

"What? now...? Alright, baby, alright." Vladimir replied with a smirk as he began to remove his pants.

Lea's mother, Elizabeth's eyes widened when Vladimir removed his pants as well as his boxers, standing there with only his shirt on in front of Lea mother. All his men turned around, their back facing Vladimir.

Her mother started crying as she stared at her husband's dead body. He was shot in between the eyes. Lea was hiding behind a huge pillar and was watching everything silently.

What could she possibly do? She was only sixteen-

It was a good thing that nobody knew that The Romanos had children. Everything was very well hidden because Lea's and Alessio's father knew that their family would be in danger one day and he didn't want to get his kids involved.

"Suck, baby." Vladimir said as he shoved his Dick inside Elizabeth's mouth, forcing her to take him. He placed a hand on the back of her head and forced her. Vladimir was a disgusting man- another thing he was renowned for apart from being a child trafficker.

Elizabeth sobbed and choked but couldn't do anything. She was struggling but Vladimir was strong. He held her in place.

Azalea cried silently. She placed her hand over her mouth to prevent herself from screaming. Her mom's eyes fell on her and soften.

She blinked twice, silently telling her to run away so she did. Azalea run away silently, not letting anyone know that she was there. Azalea took a look at the faces of the people present there. She removed her phone and took a photo of the men who were there and promised that she would kill them one by one.

She blamed herself for everything. She ran like a coward and she hated herself for it. But then again there wasn't much that she could have done.

She was one against around eight men who were very highly trained.

She then ran away. She had no idea where she was going. All she knew was that she needed to get away from that place. Then she met Sean who gave her a whole new life.
