{ Andrea's POV }

I stare at the man who forced my existence on to the earth. The man who beat my mother to death. The man who basically killed my nana, and Hector my bodyguard and a man I considered to be my grandfather.

The man who shouldn't even be called a man.
He's staring back at me smirking like he knows my answer already. He's over confident.

"So daughter, what is it going to be?" He asks

Everyone looks at me trying to remain calm.
I pick up my wine glass and take a sip.

"I'd rather not." I say and take another sip

Everyone looks at me in shock.

"So Alastair, what do you say let's die together?"
I ask smartly mocking him

His smirk falls.
Good he didn't expect that.

"Everyone in here will die." He says

"I've lost people before..and I survived...something you should be aware of...and this time if everyone dies then I too will be dead. Meaning I won't even have to miss them. Sounds kind of nice if you ask me." I say and casually take another sip

"You will talk to me."
He says with anger in his voice

I smile and say "But I'm talking to you now."

I watch his eye twitch, and I take another sip of wine. Here's to becoming drunk enough that if I do survive tonight that I won't remember much.

"Have a seat." I tell him

"You aren't in charge here." He says

"Oh I'm sorry am I peeing on your yard? I'll say it politely then... please have a seat Alastair, it's rude for you to just stand there while others are eating, and having their lives threatened." I say

The alcohol is starting to work. Good. When I'm tipsy I tend to become a person who gets a smart attitude quickly. I see Nicolás smirk out of the corner of my eye.

Alastair sits down at the end of the table, while Ander sits at the head of the table.

"What do you wish to talk about?"
Ander asks sarcastically

"I wish to talk to my daughter, she is the only reason I'm here." Alastair says

I know it's aimed to hurt Ander, and seeing as how his fists balled up I'm assuming it at least angered him... Ander is like a loaded gun, and Alastair just took off the safety. One more move and Ander will kill Alastair , killing us all along with him.

"What do you want from me?" I ask Alastair

"I want to talk to you privately." He says

"No." I tell him

"No?" He questions

"If you want to talk to me then at least one other person is going to be in this room with us, the rest can go to the ballroom and wait."
I tell him how it's going to be
