Chapter 24: Betrayal

The Unseen PainWords: 8755

Kaira's POV:

I hold Sio's head in my both hands and pecked his lips before pulling, and all I know was those soft sweet pink lips which will come in my sleep. He blinked thinking what happened. Suddenly his arm wrapped around my waist and I was flipped on the couch with him over me.

" This time, you won't ignore me."

" I won't."

" It wasn't a question, sweetheart but an order."

He kissed me passionately.

Our tongues collided with each other. His demanding entrance in my mouth but mine not letting him enter. His hand touched my inner thigh making me moan which give his tongue the access to enter my mouth. And I could feel him smirk. His tongue roaming around my mouth like declaring his territory.

I tapped his shoulder to indicate I was out of breath and he pulled.

I looked at him as my chest collided with his when it rised. A crimson colour hovered my cheeks.

I heard a chuckle, the most beautiful one.

" You are cute. I never thought the great Leonessa like this."

" You know-"

" Yes. The moment I laid my eyes on you."

" But I wore lens."

" My eyes can betray me but not my heart. It only beats like that around you, the minute I hold you in my arms, I knew it was you."

He tugs my hair strand behind my ear and kisses behind my ear.

He caressed my cheeks with his thumb, looking deep in my eyes.

It's been two days, and there is no progress.

Still we are not able to find who did what.

" The guy is too clever, he didn't left any clue." Alessio said.

" True."

" This can't be done by computer, we need to atleast one clue. According to you, who can do this. " He pulled me in his lap.

" I don't know. My dad had a hundred of enemies at that time and now it have only multiplied. It could be anyone."

" But your mom won't work for anyone. She has everything, money, power, a loving husband. God knows why she did all that?"

" Wait! Instead of finding dad's history, let's find my mother's. I am sure, the reason would be in that only." He nodded and started typing on the computer with me still in his lap.

Our both eyes widened when we saw the information.

" Holy shit!"

" I can't believe this."

" My mother loved a person named Matteo Rossi, Bruno's dad." I stood up from his lap and fisted my hair in my head.

" Now everything makes sense. Do you know how Matteo's wife died?" I looked at Sio.

" She saved Aria from a car but died herself. She was a very kind lady."

I remember Matteo telling me, how much he loved his wife and she died when she was pregnant with a baby girl.

" He thought she died due to Aria and wanted revenge. He knew my mother still loved him, so he approached her, made her fall in his trap and made my mother almost kill Aria." I continued.

" Right, but unfortunately you came in between. So they threw you in an abusive school, and as said your mother used the excuse to meet you, to meet him. Maybe when your mother understood that he was not serious with her and was only using her, she realised her mistake and was going to tell your father but he killed her before that."

" I will fucking kill him!" I started going down.

He hold me by my waist.

" Ira, calm down. If Matteo hates Aira that much we need to stop the agreement between Rossi's and DeLuca's."

" What? which type of agreement?"

" Shut! You don't know. Bruno is going to marry Aira, for now they are signing the papers stating that Aira will marry Bruno once she is 19."

" How dare that fucking Rascal bring my sister in that? And why the fuck my fucker father and brothers agreed to this." I was in full anger and was wanting to get out of Sio's arms and just shove bullets in the head of that rascal.

" Your family didn't agree, it was Aria who forced for these agreement to have a peace treaty."

" God! How can she be so naive that she is fucking sacrificing herself for a peace treaty."

" For right now, calm down, Ira. We need to find a solution more calmly. "

I understood his point, rushing won't help. I have to think nicely.

" Do you know the place where this treaty is going to happen?"

" I can ask my dad." He took out his phone to call him.

" I got the address." He said after talking to his dad.

We both rushed downstairs.

" I will take my car out."

" I have my bike parked outside." He nodded.

I let him sit in front and sat on back while holding his shoulders because he knew the address and was more familiar with Italy.

We came to the location.

" I will park the bike." He went to the bike while I was stood in front of the banquet.

I was going to go in but the guard stopped me.

" Your pass, Miss?"

" I don't need a pass that's my sister's engagement."

" Sorry, Miss but you can't." I was going to go after hitting him but there 4 to 5 gaurds.

So I called Lorenzo, yeah, he didn't knew I had a phone, I had secretly taken everyone's phone number.

" Hello." I heard his voice.

" Lorenzo, I am standing out and these gaurds are not letting me in."

" Wait, what? Kaira? Where are you standing?"

" Just talk to this gaurd, and let me be in. I will tell the reason later." I hand the phone to the gaurd and the guard let me in.

Sio had the pass so that was not a problem.

As soon as, I came in. Lorenzo came in front of me.

" Kaira, how did you-"

" Later, Lorenzo." With that I passed him and I saw Aria and Bruno had already exchanged rings and were going to sign the papers for the treaty.

" STOP!" I shouted and I became everyone's attention.

Aria, who was going to sign the papers stopped and looked at me.

" Who are you and what the-"

I ignored some rascal and made my way to Matteo, who was smirking.

" How are you, Leonessa?" He still thinks he can play with me.

I hold his collar with one hand and put the guns on his skill. Everyone gasped.

" Drop the act, Matteo."

" Kaira, what are you doing?" I heard dad's voice.

Matteo's smirk only increased.

" So you got to know and this fool of a family of yours still didn't. " He said while looking at my family but my eyes were still on him.

" What do you mean by that?" I could hear the anger in Lorenzo's voice.

" See, that's why I call them fool. But you aren't like them, you are far smarter and I knew that the time I looked at you. They did a lot bad to you, why are you still supporting them. Come on my side, I will treat you far better and become the best dad." I punched him really hard.

He chuckled and wiped his blood with his thumb. I put the gun on his head again.

" You are smart but naive. No matter what they do to you, you will still support them."

" What do you-" My family asked.

" What do I mean? Then listen the truth-"

" Don't you dare." My first hand clutched his collar more tightenly and the second one deepened the gun in his head. My eyes still fixed on him daring him to tell the truth but that didn't afraid him instead he smirked.

" The truth is, Kaira was never guilty instead she was the biggest victim among you all. She never tried to kill Aria instead she is the reason Aria is alive, if it wasn't her who come to the room, your wife, Maria might have killed her own daughter."

Everyone gasped and I could feel many eyes on me. Matteo knew what he was doing, breaking them from inside, like he was waiting for years to do this.

" Wanna know more? Kaira was sent to an abusive school, they used to treat her like shit, beat her as bad as possible, didn't give her even food for many days. And that wife of your's in the name of visiting your daughter never went to her, she came to me and spent nights with me. And you believed that shitty wife of yours, who didn't even loved you. Almost all the children who were sent to that school died in 3-4 years, even her that friend, what's the name of her that friend, Tia, right? But you know what's a miracle, your daughter is alive and not only, she is alive, she is Leonessa even though she spent 11 years in that shit hole. And you wanna know how your wife died? Then listen I killed that bitch because she had enough trying to pursue me for marriage when I kept delaying her. She finally got her senses back and understand that I was just using her as my fucking whore and nothing else so she threatened me that she will tell you but before she could reach, book, I killed her."

Bitter memory came in my head when I heard the name of Tia, the reason today, I am alive. When I got to know about her death that was when I realised I had enough of that shit hole and ran. When I used to lay at the corner in blood, she used to do my work even though she was no better. I still remember her smile. She made me realise that my family will never come.

" YOU FUCKING BASTARD, WHY DID YOU DO ALL THIS? WHAT WAS YOUR PROBLEM WITH MY 5 YEAR OLD DAUGHTERS."

" YOUR THAT 5 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER KILLED MY WIFE." This time, Matteo was angry that smirk had gone and now only rage was visible.
