But I don't think that's what he needs, Leone will need a lot of time with himself that his brothers won't be able to give him.

I stop thinking about all that because now I can only think about my revenge, I made her pay, I made her fear and I dominated her with a simple look without having to create a great torture plan so that she would end up surrendering to me, no, she already She was begging for all the pain to stop since her daughter Soraya fell to the floor by my own hand.

When I get home and enter the door I see that they are already going down the big stairs, rubbing shoulders and trying to ask for explanations. Leone is wearing black glasses, but I can see the swelling on her face. When they reach the bottom of the stairs I approach them, detailing the color of each one's eyes.

Two pairs of eyes lighter than the other pair.

Two different shades of hair from the other two little heads.

And regardless of that, they are brothers, two of them may come from different mothers, but they are still brothers who love each other and for one of them I just killed today. Which, I would do over and over again for all of them if necessary because they have protected me, above all, they have taught me how to challenge myself until I become stronger than I thought I was capable of.

—The matter is resolved, Helena and Fabian are here, since yesterday I sent them to investigate with Tamara and Guillermo, in fact, they came to Calabria to plot something —I inform them—. Trixi's death was Helena's fault, you shouldn't worry because I took care of that.

The eyes of the four review the blood on my face, my neck, my hands and my raincoat that one of the maids takes away from me so I can take it to wash, I turn to see Leone who is covering her mouth to keep her moans covered. in pain in his mouth.

—It was a plan on my part, I didn't want them to intervene because Helena owed me from the situation in David's apartment—they nod. Although I haven't learned much, I know that I had to charge them...

-How did you do it?

Leone asks with a broken voice, I see that in his eyes there is that doubt like that time he and Dom held Fabian to hurt him. I was the one who was so interested in knowing the extent of the Marino brothers' cruelty and now he is the one who is interested.

"Killing his daughter." Everyone's eyes widen in surprise. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, it was time for her to go. And I made her pay the same way.

-Thank you.

For the first time, Leone comes out to cover me with his arms so we can melt into a hug full of comfort and gratitude. He doesn't need to say it in words, because I knew he would be thanking me with that simple detail. David, for his part, urges me with his smile. When we take off, Salvatore extends his hand in search of mine. I give it to him, caring little that my fingers are covered in blood.

The two of us go up each step at the same time until we reach our room, I leave my bag on the bed, I turn around and catching my hips in his hands is when he looks me straight in the eyes.

—I have always thought that your eyes are like molten gold, they shine without stopping, they attract attention without hesitation and everyone would like to be praising or admiring that color of eyes, principessa.

-Really? —He moves his face nodding—. Do they look... pretty to you?

—No, I think they are beautiful. —He places a kiss on the tip of my nose that I find quite tender—. And what you did today surprises me, because at some point when they just brought you home I saw many ways to make you part of this the hard way, I thought many things about it to force you to belong - he runs his thumb over my cheek - and I don't It was until I realized the truth. I was never going to be able to because you know how to lead, you know how to carry out each situation like a true leader, lady, boss and queen. Because you alone realized what belongings, I should never have thought about how to make you part of this because sooner or later you were going to claim what you wanted to obtain.

—My position, I wanted an empire.

—And here you have it, principessa. —He leans his forehead against mine, holding both sides of my face in his hands—. Thank you for doing what you did today, I know it's not the best, I know it's not something you're used to, but it feels good to know that you did it without needing to give you an order because you don't need them. You're my lady.

—And being your lady, you're never going to order me to do something I don't want, right?

"Only if your life is in danger, love," he kisses the top of my head and then walks away, sits on the bed, opens his legs and puts me between them. Go to the bathroom for the first aid kit and I'll heal those knuckles, principessa, since you're so brave, someone must take care of you.

—And that person can only be you.

—Exactly, go ahead.

Shaking my hips and styling my legs I get to the bathroom so I can take out what he asked for, I extend it to him when I return to him, he puts me between his legs and allows me to sit on his lap while he heals and cleans my hands. When I have him so close to me I talk to him about what I was thinking on the way.

—At some point I want to confront the problems I have with my family, I want to talk to them and know what terms are best to meet — I let him know while rubbing the alcohol over the exposed skin. I don't want to continue receiving letters, photos, when the reality is that they are fine without me and I without them. I don't want to rush things, but I don't want you to think that I'm always going to come back with that mature thought when there are still feelings in me that bother me, that hurt me.

-Do you want me to accompany you?

—Of course I want to, I think that without your security and support I would not have been able to face any of the situations that have arisen in my life lately.

He bandages my fingers that are most sore, fills them with ointment and gives me a delicious massage that makes me forget the pain in the muscles of my hands.

—I wouldn't have achieved many things without your help either, love, so I'm in. I will go with you, I will be by your side listening and I will be supporting you in the decision you choose, I would never judge you so you can feel calm if you want me to go.
