Alexandra's Pov
Everyone was acting really strange since l woke up from the hospital and you know what's weirder is that dad visited me in and he looked happy and all his actions seemed totally not like him
My brothers barely look at me the eye and they always find an excuse to leave just as soon as they come in and that is not like them either
Mom on the other hand rarely leaves my said it's like she's become obsessed with me because she's always there wherever l go
I've also had strange visitors whom mom introduced as her old friends and l like their daughters Valerie and Valencia are so cool to be around they are just like me from the coolest clothes, to the coolest shoes ,the newest trend and not to forget the celebrity scoop and gossip l love those girls no one would really think they are older than me
The girls may not come from a rich family like mine but they totally get me and l them but mom is not very fond them but l really don't care what she thinks
My cousins and grandparents came to visit me a few days ago and said that they were happy that l was okay l mean did they actually think l believed that they care for me
I haven't got the chance to ask about the girl whom l was with that day but anyway she probably died which serves her right for bumping into me and talking back at me
I just hope mom hasn't told dad the truth about me not being his daughter because l will make sure she regrets it if she does
I obviously won't kill myself but she doesn't know that and anyway it's pretty fun seeing her beg for me not to kill myself which l will never do l am not that stupid but l guess mom is
Maybe the hospital did some blood tests and proved that l am not dad's daughter which would prove my brothers and mom's strange behaviour but that wouldn't explain why dad visited me or why the rest of the family visited me as well something was definitely fishy but l am still not sure what it is
Apparently both my kidneys were danadam due to the accident so l had to have a kidney transplant which was a success by the way but when l asked mom how l got the kidney so soon because l thought they were waiting lists for all these things but my transplant seemed to happen in a matter of days, mom gave me a lecture about how l should be grateful and stuff so l dropped it and figured that since dad was not an ordinary man he must have done something to make sure l got the kidney first
For some strange reason dad is always in the hospital these days though he hardly comes to my room l always hear the nurses talking about him whenever he comes ,l wonder who is so important to him that he always visits but never bothers to even say hi to me
I was in my thoughts when l heard the door close indicating that someone had entered my room and l noticed that oerspewas Xavier
"Can we talk Alexa"he said and l obviously knew what he wanted to talk about
"I have nothing to talk about with you "l said glaring at him
"Ohh come on Alexa there's no one here l just need to know why you accused me of such a heinous crime ,you were like my sister Alexa l would have never tried to hurt you nomatter how drunk l was" he said as l noticed his eyes were glassy
"You don't remember that night Xavier then how can you say that you could never hurt me when you did" l said faking a hurt expression
"I don't believe you Alexa ,l can never do such a thing to any woman and worse to my sister" he said and by now a few tears had escaped him and was really impressive to see a grown man beg me to prove his innocence which by the way l was never going to do
"But you will never know for sure now will you Xavier ,you will always live with the guilt that you may have tried to molest your own sister ,the stigma will follow you everwherev you go"l told him taunting him
Knowing my cousin he has probably never slept peaceful since that night because the guilt is killing him but l couldn't care less what happens to him my motive that night was a success and that's all that matters to me
"You think you've won don't you" he said as he wiped his tears
"Your brothers that you are so proud of will give you the biggest surprise of your life and the De Luca surname that you are so proud to tell to the world will be taken away from you and most of all you will watch someone else enjoy what you've yearned for the most Your father's love he said as he stomped out of the room but l was left confused by what he said good thing is l don't believe in his lies
I tried to sleep and ignore Xavier's work
I was sleeping when l heard the nurses speaking softly
"The De Luca princess went missing from the hospital so Mr De Luca has put the whole hospital on down " one of them said but l kept pretending
"Ins'nt she the De princess " the other said who l am guessing was paintings at me
"Not biologically"l couldn't believe my ears so when they said that
They all know
Alexandra's PovI've always planned everything in my life to avoid suprises but for the first time in my life l have received the biggest shock in my lifeI have so many unanswered questions about about this girl that is rumoured about being the De Luca princess and mostly who she is and why didn't anyone tell me about herCould she be the reason why dad is constantly in the hospital or why my brothers are barely looking me in the eye and mom's strange behaviourI can't let this happen l was born to be the only girl in the De Luca family and whose daughter could she be dad's ,uncle Massimo ,uncle Lorenzo or uncle Bernado's but the last time l checked none of my aunt's were pregnant and my uncles wouldn't cheat on their wives and that would mean that dad cheatedI cannot lose this name that l've worked so hard to keep and no girl will ever be able to replace me , l've always had what l wanted except my father's love and l won't let some
Rosabella's PovI woke up in a car and l was on the back seat while in the front seemed to be a man and l woman initially l was confused of how l got here but now l understandMy mother did this to me ,my biological mother gave me away without any second thought, she chose her other daughter over me but why did l expect anything less who would ever choose a broken , skinny and ugly girl like me over anyoneI was a fool to think that maybe if l found my biological father then he love me after all if the woman who gave birth to me didn't want me then how could my father want meThe good thing about all this is that l know that the man and woman who abused me all my life are not related to me ,the people who ruined me and destroyed my whole life are just strangers who were paid to keep me and l don't blame them for not liking me ,they probably didn't know what their real daughter was going through then how could they treat me fairlyI silently cried
Matteo's PovI so badly wanted to know what was going through her mind ,l could see the pain her eyes and l just wanted to take it all awayMy only daughter didn't deserve to be in pain or to see how cruel this world actually is ,she deserved to sheltered all her life and l was going to make everyone who dared to touch my princess pay for every unshed tear that l see in her eyes but firsty l needed to keep her safe because it's pretty clear that someone is trying to mess with me by taking my daughter out of the hospital and l am going to make sure they know the consequences of messing with a De LucaI drove Bella to one of my apartments because l couldn't take her home without knowing who took her in the first place as it was pretty clear who ever did knew pretty well who she was so l needed to know who among the people who knew backstabbed me and whyBella was quiet the whole time but l just wanted her to talk to meWe entered the apar
Matteo's PovI couldn't believe it out of all people to betray me it had to be my wife , l know we haven't gotten along in years but for her to punish me like this and most importantly to give away my little girl despite knowing how much l wanted a daughter, l've always had a problem in trusting people and especially in my line of work you learn that no one can be trusted but part of me trusted Selena even though l questioned Alexandra's birth l didn't even for a minute think that Selena would even do such a thing.I am not a good person , l am a ruthless murderer but if there is something that is valued the in the Mafia it's Family and loyalty. Rosabella sobbed as l put her in my lap while she told me what Selena said and did to her , in my heart l swore that l won't let anyone hurt my daughter anymore not even her own mother but l need to find out what exactly happened the day Alexandra and Bella were born because it's getting more and more confusing which means that
My dad, my father was that really possible l yearned to hear someone address me as their , for someone to accept me and this man who clearly had it all is telling me that he is my father and that he is glad to meet me but in the back of my mind l know that soon he will leave me and hate me like they all do because no one can ever want someone as damaged and broken as me"What am l supposed to say" l said looking at him with tears rolling down my cheek"Nothing princess l just want you to know that you that you have a family that loves you and cares for you Bella ""l could see hat he clearly meant what he was saying so l did what l always imagined l would do if this day ever came l hugged my dad and he embraced me like he couldn't believe l was here "l love you so much little one and from today no one will ever hurt you again" he saidI finally had a protector l wasn't alone anymore and it's the best feeling in the world knowing that you have someone who lo
Alexa's PovIt's been 4 days since l was discharged from the hospital and one week since anyone ever saw Papa though he calls to check on them and sometimes ask about my health even though l just wish he'd call me and ask me directlyI went home with the De Luca family because obviously and l told the Rossi's that l want absolutely nothing to do with them l mean obviously they can't provide me with the life that the De Luca's canOn the other hand l've been pretending to to be depressed since l found out about us being exchanged at birth so that my brothers feel sorry for me and it's totally working because they are always around meI actually pretend to not eat until they feed me or l make sure my eyes always look red and swollen so they think am always crying and they reassure me that they will always be my brothers blood or notAs for the their biological sister she's been missing since a week ago and it's probably the reason why Papa has gone A
Matteo's Pov"What is he talking about mom" Leo said as they all turned to Selena for an answer"I did it for our family" she said sobbing and no matter how much l felt sorry for her l couldn't let her tears get to me because she hurt my daughter and that is one thing l can never forgive"What did you do mother" Elonzo asked menacingly and honestly l was a proud father this is what l've always taught him to never forgive betrayal he could see it in his mother's eyes that she did something unforgivable"I-l l wanted to protect her Two " l missed hearing her call me by that nickname but now that sink has sailed because all l see when l look at her is the pain my daughter went through for 13 years even though Bella hasn't told me about the abuse l am her father l know everything"Protecting her by giving her away to someone you hadly know " l said raising my voice because l really don't have time for her nonsense l promised my daughter that l would wa
Rosabella's Pov I've heard that you can't miss what you never had in the first place but when l look at my dad l miss every memory and moments we could have had together had we not been separated This whole week with my dad has been truly amazing even though l struggle with the nightmares of my past but everytime l wake up he is right next to me soothing and comforting me My dad is a man of a few words but actions show just how much he loves and cares for me and for that l'll always be grateful I never thought l would ever say this but l'm seriously bored all l ever do is wake up, eat , watch tv , take a nap , eat, watch tv ,watch dad work then dinner and finally dad and l spend a few hours before we go to bed together then he tucks me in and the same happens the next day Dad says once he sorts everything out l'll be able to go to school and also get to know my family and l can't wait , my last meeting with my brothers wasn't exact
