Union Of Death (Secrets of The Famiglia Part 2)

He has never mentioned it, but why would he? Seeing her even from the screen makes her more than just a dream, and it calms my raging heart that she has at least one parent like me still there. My father is truly something.

“Guilia, Aliyana it’s freezing outside, get in.” Filippo shouts from the door and I hand my sister back her phone, feeling like my entire world has just twisted on its axis.

“Let’s enjoy our evening.” I whisper as my sister holds me and we walk back together. These two days with Guilia has really shown me that I can trust her, and that she isn’t at all what I thought she was, there is more to her than just my father’s daughter and Leonardo’s words about her fire comes to light and so does the reason I spent an hour doing my hair this morning.

We are all sitting around talking about Leonardo and Guilia, Filippo is exchanging embarrassing stories with Marco and Deno about the two. Camilla laughs carefree next to Marco, who has his hand on his own leg and hers on his. He hasn’t acknowledged me once, and in a way, I am glad, because I don’t think I can take it if he did.

“What the fuck?” Whatever Xander is saying over the phone has all the men on alert and even Camilla looking worried.

Guilia and I share confused looks, when Marco gets up and leaves the room. I take that moment to signal Guilia to follow me.

Marco’s shouts are heard from the kitchen side, yelling at Xander as my sister and I steer ourselves to the library.

We get inside, “Shut the door for minute I want to see something.” I pull my phone up and look at googles, how to section I saved earlier that day on my browser. I go to the desk and feel around it for something that screams hidden compartment.
