Diana's Pov

"What did you- do," I stammered my hand flying to my mouth in shock and horror as I stared at the body slumped on the floor. Odysseus drew out a shuddering breath his eyes widened with tears of shame and a broken expression as he peered to father's body.

"He was going to kill you if I hadn't done anything to stop him- I-" His lower lip jutted out trembling, his hands going to his ears as though to stop the demons from taking over completely.

"He- was a bad person right? He- deserved it." I blinked away a tear and sniffed. "And, you couldn't think of anything else!?"

He barked off a broken chuckle. "He had his fucking hands wrapped around your neck, my mind stopped, my vision blurred, I tried to think but you were losing air, so I had to act! This- is bad, bad, men are going to be suspicious about his death, they're going to come for me." He paced driving his fingers into his blond locks.

Realization slammed into me, Odysseus had protected me. "You- did it to protect me, you protected me."

"He was a monster Diana, you were right-" he froze midway and nodded solemnly. "Yeah, I protected you from him. I killed him to protect you, you're my sister. You were right he betrayed us because of him both of us suffered, he deserved to die!" He bellowed the vein in his neck pulsing.

"What do- we do now," I questioned forcing my myself to breath.

"Shut up, shut up!"

"Let me think!" He thundered slashing a hand in the air. "Odysseus, it's okay you protected me, it was either him or me and you chose me."

"We need a story-" I came up with an idea. "-he committed suicide."

He scoffed. "By stabbing himself?"

"Or- maybe he was assassinated. You're safe because men like you have a lot of enemies who want them dead right?" I suggested.

"Fuck! No, you know what I don't regret killing him! He turned me into a monster made me look like a bad guy when he was the villain! I need to disappear."

I blinked. "What?"

"How do you expect me to continue my rule over the mafia after killing father! I may be The Black Raven but I never wanted this life! I was forced into it, father threatened to take away everything from me if I didn't join the organization I would be living on the streets, and I'd rather be a somebody than be a nobody, it was too late to turn back after I killed Savio, so, the only option left for me was to accept my reality but I can't do this anymore." He cried slamming a hand on his mouth, my heart squeezed for him as I neared him.

"Wha kind of a sick monster kills their own father! Fuck, I-" I engulfed him a hug, blood rushing through my veins, Odysseus cried on my shoulder hugging me back. We only had each other, he had done everything to protect me and himself. I got it, he wasn't the villain he was forced into one. "I just wanted his love and affection towards me so I became a monster just so he could appreciate me, observe what I did for him, I did everything he ever told me to- I miss my mother. Why did my mother leave me alone in this world, everyone who believes in me dies!" He choked out.
