The mafia princess return Chapter 25 . Leon's pov I had been able to have a few hours with sleep but got woken up by a knock on the This better be important I'm thinking to myself. I went to open the door and when I saw it was Ken I was alarmed right away. "I'm sorry to wake you up Don but Talia need you" Ken whispered. door. I nodded and got out the door walking down to her bedroom quickly with Ken next to me. I got into her bedroom and Ken closed the door behind us. I saw Talia sitting sideways on Alan's lap and crying so hard. I got over there and lifted her up and hold her close to my chest and she quickly put her arms around my neck and legs around my waist and hold me tightly. "What happened?" I asked in a low voice looking at the two men in the room that is supposed to keep mia bambina safe from any harm. Ken and Alan both took a deep breathe and Talia kept crying harder on my shoulder. They both look at her with a sad look on their face then Alan took a deep breathe. "Talia woke up from a nightmare, and then wanted to go down and get a glass of water." He started. "Then Dante came in high and drunk, we were on our way to stand next to Talia but she motioned for us to stay put so we did. Ken explained. *Then Dante said and I quote 'Why the fuck did you have to come back here? Life was better without a needy brat like you! You are not wanted here Talia, you should just go back to the wonderful life with the whore of your mother. You think we need a useless bitch like you here? I can break you with one hand if I wanted to! You are just a burden and liability to us. It's your fault we lost our mother all those years ago! If it hadn't been for you our mother would still be here!' After that we run up to her and Ken told Dante that he don't know her story so he should shut up Alan explained. "On up way up to her room I wiped a tear and saw she still had makeup on , so when we got up here Alan walked into her bathroom to get a wet cloth to clean the makeup off. But she ended to do it herself and dropped the blanket she had over her shoulder so we could see all her scars and bruises." Ken explained. "I cupped her cheek and asked how someone could do this to a person like her and she broke down crying and now we are here" Alan finished explained. I were beyond furious at what Dante have said even if she don't have this messed up past it's still not a way to talk to his baby sister! I noticed Talia have fallen asleep in my arms so I walk over to her bed lay her down but she won't let go of me. I nod to Alan and Kevin and they walk out the door to stand guard and I lay down with Talia in my arms, then I also drift off to sleep. I woke up around 8 o'clock and carefully go out of the bed and go back to my bedroom to get ready for the day. It's sunday so it's just gonna be a day at home but still I took a shower, and get dressed in a three piece armani suit. When I'm done I walk down to the living room. For now it were only me, dad, David and Aaron here so I told them everything that happened with Dante. They know about what she have been through now, I just didn't say anything about the bruises and scars since Aaron don't know about that. "How can he say something so messed up to Talia? " Aaron asked shocked. "It's not her fault Bianca decided to leave! " Dad said disappointed. "I truly have no words, she must have been so heartbroken hearing that shit' David said so sad. 1/2 Chapter 25. "She cried herself to sleep and didn't want to let me go until this morning" I told them and they all nodded sad in understanding. Then Talia and her four guards walked into the living room and she sat down on dad's lap and I could see how proud and happy that made him. The rest of us just smiled, same with the guards. "How did you sleep bambina?" Dad asked her with a small smile on his face and she just shrugged her shoulders. We all know she didn't have the best sleep . Then Theo, Dante and Nico walked in and we all got up to go to the dining room. Dad carried Talia bridal style and placed her on his lap sideways at the table, guess he don't want to let her go right now. Miranda came in with our lunch and today it were egg , bacon, sausage, hash browns. When she placed Talias plate she gave Miranda her smile and a deep bow with her head. "Oh sweetheart you are making me blush every time you do that." Miranda giggled and Talia smiled at her warmly. And dad kissed Talia's forehead then we started to eat. During the breakfast I looked over at Dante who looked over at Talia with a blank expression on his face. "Dante, my office after breakfast!" I said in a very stern voice. First he looked at me in shock then he sent a very angry look Talia's way but she keep her look at her plate. Everyone other then Nico looked at Dante with an angry look on their face. We finished our breakfast and when I stood up, Dante stood up as well. And me followed me to my office. I held the door open for him to walk in and he sat down in one of the couches in the room. I closed the door then I sat down behind my desk, I took a deep breathe then I looked at Dante with a stern look which he quickly tried to look away from. He don't like me giving him that. "Dante, tell me, why are you treating Talia this way? And you know she is not to be blamed for why our mother left!" I said in a stern disappointed tone. I saw he took a nervous swallow then he looked at me. "She lived with our mother when we couldn't, we have been here training to be strong enough to live in this mafia life every single day since! Now this fragile little girl is walking in here and have everyone wrapped around her fingers. It's not okay. we have been living a hard life when she have been living a normal life like any other kids!" He said, or more shouted.
