Alessia's POV.

A sharp intake of a breath makes me look down.

"Munchkin why didn't you say something sooner?" Nono asks shocked.

"I wanted...I wanted to go to school and I just-... I'm sorry" I stop talking not knowing what to say.

"Oh munchkin" Nono smiles sadly.

Nono starts talking as he cleans my wounds, "You don't have to hide things from me baby. I will never judge you or forbid you from doing anything unless it regards your well-being and safety. In this case...well yeah I'd probably make you stay home for a few days but that's just because you would need to heal both mentally and physically. But just because you want to go to school doesn't mean that you can hide something like this from us.-" he stars but I cut him off.

"But I didn't want to be home with Dominic." I whisper softly tearing up.

He sighs softly as he finishes up and helps me put my clothes back on.

He brings me into a hug while he kisses my head, "I know munchkin but you still should have told me- we could have figured something out. But it's in the past now so we're not gonna dwell on it. But...in the future-"

"I know- I will Nono" I whisper softly as he picks me up and he walks to the living room.

We all sit down on the couch and watch movies for the rest of the night.

I wake up smiling in Nono's arms, looking up I see Nono looking down at me.

"Good morning" I smile softly

"Good morning munchkin, how did you sleep?" He asks me softly.

"Good-" I mumble, "you?" I ask.

"Very well" he answers while he strokes my back.

"Nono?" I ask nervously

"Yeah"

"What are we going to do?" I ask him.

"Don't you worry your little head about that munchkin"

"But-" I start but a look from Nono shuts me up.

------------ Two days later

Noah's POV.

We've been at this hotel for a few days and against all odds Dominic actually noticed our dissapearence.

He's been texting us and asking where we are and why we left. He doesn't have a fucking clue on what he did wrong.

After another restless night of contemplation and not knowing what to do, we all except for Alessia gather around the table in silence.

I sigh deeply, breaking the silence. "We need to confront him. We can't keep ignoring him, he'll come after us or take Alessia. We can't go on like this."

My brothers nod in agreement, their concerned gazes fixed on me.

"Alright," I say.

"Let's go talk to him today, before this escalates any further."

Leo is staying in the hotel with Alessia and Asher since they still need to recover from their wounds.

When we arrive at Enzo's house we get inside where we find Dominic and Enzo on the couch in the living room.

Hearing the commotion they both turn around to look at us.

Dominic's expression turns cold and distant.
