She hated them.
They loved her with everything in them.
The universe truly has a sick way of telling you it's there, doesn't it? From being kidnapped to being abused, that was all Arabella saw in life. It was all she ever knew. They tell you to ke...

Alejandro just picked me up from school. Xander, Luca, and Xavier are detained because those stupid idiotas thought it would be a great idea to mix a bunch of chemicals together to see what happens. And they blew up the science lab. Surprise, surprise. So Alejandro came to bring me home.
"I can't believe those idiots blew up an entire science lab." Alejandro rubs his temple in annoyance.
"Ha. To be honest, I've blown up a science lab before. Grade 8, if I remember correctly." I say truthfully. Alejandro chuckles at me with a playful glare.
"Sooo, ice cream?'' I give him my best puppy dog eyes.
"How do I say no to that face?" He smiles at me. I've cracked the ruthless don with my adorable eyes. I squeal loudly jumping into his arms.
"Anything for my bambina." He chuckles at my enthusiasm. As we were walking to the car I saw a red dot on Alejandro's chest. More specifically his heart. No-
"Alec!'' Before I could push him out of the way I heard a loud gunshot. Alejandro's eyes widen for a second before he falls back. I fell to the ground beside him sobbing. He lays there limp without moving. When I checked his pulse it was non-existing.
"No!" I cry out. I hold him in my arms while crying.
"Tsk tsk. Looks like someone doesn't have her big brother anymore.'' I hear a menacing voice.
"I can't believe his own sister is the reason he's dead. How sad." He mocks. I didn't kill him. I didn't. Right?
"Finally ready to go back home now? Or do you want to be the reason there's no longer any Romano's left." He smirks.
I look back at Alejandro's lifeless eyes. I feel more tears fill my eyes. I won't let anyone else lose their life because of me. I get up, laying one more kiss on his forehead.
"I'll go with you." I whisper.
"Good to have you back Meine Königin."
I wake up taking in a deep breath. As if finally getting my soul back. I have sweat dripping down my body while tears run down my face. That nightmare was embedded into my head.
That was just a nightmare, right?
Now my paranoia won't let me believe that it wasn't real. I get up and sprint down the stairs looking for Alec.
"Alec!" I called out.
Please be okay. Please.
Luckily as I was going down the stairs I saw him looking at me worried. I ran to him not caring if I looked crazy. I ripped off his blazer but he didn't stop me. He simply asked me what was wrong. I check for a heartbeat. Even though I see him in front of me, my mind won't stop me from asking myself, "what if?"
