Chapter Six

Annabelle

The Ritz one of the main hotels here in California and here i was smack dab in some penthouse waiting for the Don to the Italian mafia get out of his shower. He let me at least call so they would know that i was at least alright and thankfully for me Jose informed me that Rose and even Emily and Juianna were there safe and sound but that Reaper was angry. Which i understood for he did not wish me to be here locked away but i owed it to this man to speak face to face with him even if it was this last time. I sat down ignoring the ache and burn to my gut, even the itchiness from where the cut was healing, half an hour later the Don Came out and smiled his hair damp and his body covered in a thick black robe. His son coming out behind him clearly he was the one that told him of my presence here which did not bother me since Giovanni was nearly the same age as me if not my twin practically. Giovanni huffed and shoved past me to the door anger clear on his face and for whatever reason it was towards me hence the shove to my shoulder. It caused me to flinch but i said nothing.

"Careful Giovanni!" Costa yelled.

"Its fine just a flesh wound no big deal..."

The Don glared at Giovanni and motioned for him to leave.

"Don Costa while i appreciate you worrying for me it is not needed, we made it clear once i was done paying you and this last job for you that we had a clean slate nothing more. I do not owe you anything after all my years of service now if you could please explain to me why exactly it is i am here i a sure this misunderstanding will be cleared."

He looked to me for a long moment his eyes taking me in as he gave a small smile and leaned forward and gave my head a light kiss, a gesture he did from the moment i turned 17 and had done my first mission. He did it he said because he was proud of me, that i had excuted the mission as if it were done by my father. Not exactly anyone wanted to hear but it was not anything new to me, i was a person who fought and killed for a living now so the words did not phase me like they would a normal person anymore in fact it sounded more like simple conversation. Looking to him my brows pushed together as he handed me a letter, a old wrinkled envelope and moved away from me. Starring at it curiously i unfolded the letter and looked to the letter inside as i read over it.

Leon A. Costa probability to DNA taken from Annabella Marie Dragna 99.9 probablity.

Reading over the line over and over i swallowed the lump in my throat as i starred at the paper my hands shaking. I was his daughter, he was my father. The man i dedicated 10 years of my life to, the man who i thought was so humble to take me and my sister in when he did not need to was my father. I let the letter slip from my hands as i looked to him, the tears i had never shed for anyone, my mother, my father, the people i killed, the lives i took, the life i led, the sister i felt i abandoned, none of it had me cry nothing had ever broken me until this simple piece of paper.

Glaring at him i charged at him and pinned his ass to the ground, my hands raising to punch him in the jaw, the anger i was feeling was so much i just wanted to hurt him. To let him feel the ripping and burn that was in my chest, i caught him off guard and shoved him into the dining table causing the vase and few glasses to fall on the floor. I punched him directly in the jaw, my eyes blurred with tears and my hands shaking. He blocked me easily and flipped me off onto the ground, my hands grabbing a shard of glass not caring that it cut into my palm, i hadn't noticed that there was three guards pointing there guns at me telling me to drop it. I held it tighter my eyes on the Don as i breathed heavy i didn't care if they shot me or even killed me.

"Put it down Bambina."

"Fuck you! My name is Viper, not Belle or Bambina or any other fucking name you think you know me by or should call me."

"Put it down or i will have them shoot you Viper."

He said in anger but seriousness, his hands raised and the men they cocked there guns to show he meant it. Turning to the men i glared and then looked to the Don.

"By the time i go down, i will take piece of you with me!"

"Sister!" Giovanni said pushing past the guards his eyes wide as he kept his palms raised up to show he meant no harm.

"Please put it down."

My hand trembled as i looked to him, my shoulders shock as i sobbed and let the glass fall my head bowed as i cried softly, my hands covering my face as i cried, my knees on the ground as i sobbed.

"Its not true....your lying to me. I know you are and i wont fucking fall for it."

"He is not lying he tested us too and its true your our sister."

He was telling the truth, i knew he was and it killed me even more just hearing it, the tears fell as i felt his arms around me suddenly, he rocked me and held onto me as he spoke to his father but i could not understand it because my mind was going to fast to even comprehend. I wanted Reaper, I wanted Jose, my sisters Emily and Rose, i wanted my real family not this i couldn't handle this right now.

Don lifted me and carried me into a room, i remember he lay me in bed and apologized to me over and over but that he had never planned to tell me but with me leaving and wanting to give up that life he needed for me to know and this was the only way he knew how to tell me. I didn't say anything to him because honestly what could i say the man i thought was my father wasn't and the one i saw as a parental figure was. I just wanted everything to stop my mind could not catch up with it anymore and i am sure it was clear on my face because after that he said nothing and left me to my thoughts.
