His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies

Marvin

Elena:I miss you❤

Marvin:I miss me too.

Elena: -_-

I couldn’t help but laugh at my screen. Ever since making things official, Elena made it a habit to text me every second-but I didn’t mind.

“I’m leaving San Diego.” Tiago cleared his throat. I locked my phone and looked at my brother, but for some reason, he didn’t seem to be joking.

“What do you mean, you’re leaving?”

“I just…” Tiago lowered his head, regret written all over his face. “I can’t believe I almost hurt Elena-and it made me realize that I do need help.”

He needed help, there was absolutely no question about that, and I was glad he could realize it. At first, I was against it, but what he had done to Elena was unacceptable.

I needed him to get better, and the only way for that to happen was to get help. The only downside was that it had turned out dad and Victor had won this battle.

“Mom agreed to send me to the Armando’s.”

“Mom did that?” I spoke, shocked. The woman who did not want to get him any help ended up sending him to one of the most disciplined families in the business.

The Armando’s were longtime friends and a well-respected family. They had one of the best products on the markets and lived in a mansion on their big farm. I hadn’t seen them in a long time and had no desire

Even as an adult, the strict ways of Ana Sofia and Dante Armando had the power to scare many. Discipline was exactly what Tiago needed.

“Good luck.” I chuckled, thinking about the Armando’s and their stone-hard children.

“I know they’re hard, but they’re just what I need.” Tiago closed his eyes. “I think I’ve lost my mind, Marvin.”

At least he’s self-aware.

“I think you have every right to.” I comforted him. Even though there were absolutely no excuses for his behavior, I could not ignore that losing Anya was not easy for him.

It made me think of Elena, and it made me realize how strong my brother had been. Just the thought of something happening to Elena made me crumble.

“For how long will you be gone for?”

Tiago sighed. “Hopefully long enough so that I don’t have to face our new brother.”

I could sense that Lucas played a huge part in Tiago’s decision. He was running away from his problems, and given the opportunity, I would’ve followed him.

“Don’t remind me.” I rolled my eyes. Lucas staying here was not a good idea, and I had yet to determine whether I felt worse for my dad or my new brother.

“Marvin, can you promise me something?”

“Anything.”

“Can you please promise me that you’ll not let anyone touch what’s yours?” Tiago pleaded.”Can you promise me that you’ll not let anyone touch the family business?”

He was starting to sound a whole lot like my mom. Yes, there were people who we could not trust—but not everyone was out to kill us.

“Since when did you become so ambitious?”

Tiago looked at me with a paled expression. That’s because….” He muttered. “I…..”

“Tiago, you can tell me anything.”

Tiago shook his head. “It’s nothing.”
