The Long Lost Mafia Princess

Chapter 21

I curdled up in a ball tears keep falling and falling like a waterfall.

Some tried to touch me, but I really don't want to be touched right now. They're going to leave me.

Someone grabbed my face making me look up in...Blake's eyes.

"I love you and I'm not going to leave you. You're okay now. Everything is going to be okay. "

I just kept crying harder not only from being scared that they are going to leave but for everything the abuse, the sexual harassment, the friends I lost.....everything.

Blake picked me up and sat me on his lap, where I am now cuddled into his chest crying my heart out.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry" I cried harder.

"Shhh you're okay, you're okay now. I've got you" Blake kept saying while rubbing my back reassuringly

Eventually my crying turned into hiccups.

And then before I knew it I fell asleep.

Blake's POV .

My Angelo fell asleep after a while. I held her close to me, I never knew it would be so comforting for me to hug my little Angelo.

I really pist though, I'm going to hunt his little friends down and make them wish they were never born.

I buried my face in her hair, still stroking her back.

I hate the fact that she's been through all of this, but I'm going to help her, I want to help her, I'm going to be there for her.

I love her.

I'm going to be there for her, always.

I'm going to try to help her, especially with the self harm.

Since the talk I had with dad after my mental breakdown in front of the whole family, I decided to open up more and to try to stop with my self harm.

I already found some tricks on the internet to help me with stopping and they've helped up to now, so maybe I can tell them to Val.

Now that I've been more open, I don't feel the need as much for the self harm as I used to.

But I never really knew how bad of an addiction I had too it until now, it's hard to stop really hard.

It's like my body is craving the pain almost, it's an addiction. It really is.

But I'm going to end it, my addiction, I mean. It's going to be hard but I can do it.

And in the mean time I'm going to help Val too.

With that last thought, I hold Val tighter, while a little smile crept on my face, and I fell asleep too.

Arsenio POV.

I'm pist of, I really am. I'm going to find their stupid little friends and make them pay.

Now that Val fell asleep in the arms of my son Blake, I'm going to make an urgent phone call too Marcus. One of the best mafia members we have (one of the highest ranked) also my best friend from childhood.

I stepped out of the room and dialled his number.

Arsenio-A , Marcus-M (phone call)

M- Arsenio man, how's it going. And how's your daughter, is she settled in yet?

A- Well, it's going well but there's a problem, a big one.

M- explain

A- Those fuckers that took Valentina have been starving and abusing her her whole life. They are dead I know, but their friends who helped beating her are still alive, so find them and bring them too me.

M- I will capo, I definitely will. But promise me I'll get a chance of torturing them too. I'm going to make those fuckers pay.

A- I promise Marcus.

M- goodbye

A- goodbye and tell your wife and kid that I said hi

M- I will men, I will. Say the same to yours

A- I wil, addio

M- addio

(Capo-boss, addio-goodbye)

After the call, I went back inside to now see Blake sleeping too. I smiled at the sight.

I grabbed a blanket and covered them both.

I give Valentina a kiss on the head, then did the same too Blake.

"I love you both so so much, sweet dreams."

I sat back in my chair and looked at the others.

"Guys, now that we know what happened, their friends are going to pay. And about Val....don't mention it. Don't fight in front of her, don't yell. And don't give her pitiful looks she hates that. Try to help her how you can, distract her, help with panic attacks, maybe sleep with one of you guys at night so she doesn't get nightmares . I'll see if she wants a psychiatrist to talk too but I'm not going to force her. Then the whole family is coming this Saturday, to meet Val and stuff so prepare for that. Now choose what you want to do, maybe get something to eat or sleep maybe homework or stuff. I'm going to work on my laptop for now."

A chorus of agreements came from the others, some left to get some food, some went on their phone,....

I grabbed my laptop and tried to get her discharged. Maybe she can come home and since Elijah is a doctor he can clean her wounds and stuff. That could work. All I know is that Val isn't going to stay here alone. She will be scared and alone, just no.

————

It was a few hours later and I did some work and figured out with the hospital how Val can stay home.

Blake and Valentina woke up a few minutes ago, they are now eating some fries, so I decided to tell her the news.

"Principessa, I have good news."

She looked at me while the others did too.

"You can go home tomorrow and then Elijah can clean your wounds and check up on you. Elijah is okay with it, I already talked to him about it so that's all okay. Is that okay for you?"

"Yes that's good. Thanks dad and Elijah."

"Your welcome principessa"

"It's a pleasure sorellina."

Everyone went back to what they were doing, I smiled at the sight.

I really love my family.
