Stefas pov

The rest of the day I was still in Alvars room and we talked. I've never talked with someone else this much but Luna. She was always my only best friend and family.
But it makes so much fun to talk with Alvar. He doesn't seem like it, but he's kinda funny and has the same likes as me.
He told me stories about his brothers and I always burst out laughing because they were so funny. They all look like killer machines but actually they all sounds clumsy and funny.

But my mind was still by Luna. When I saw her at the table, I was relieved that she was okay. She actually looks happy.
But she always looks happy and smiles though, so that doesn't mean much.

I sat down opposite of her, because the seats next to her were taken.
Alvar sits down next to me.

Slowly the rest of the family joined in.

First Nathanael.
When he entered the room I felt his gaze on me.
He probably checks if I'm okay after he dragged and locked me in that room.

After him, Lauriel and Alejandro came in. Lauriel hold her husband by his arm and Alejandro was opening the button of his suit jacket. They look so powerful.

They sit down next each other.

When Alejandro sat down, I suddenly could see a red spot on his white shirt.
It's...blood.
Lauriel noticed it at the same time as me. Then she coughs and taps him on his arm.

First he looks inquiringly at her but then he let his gaze wander to Luna and me and realizes it too.
Quickly he closes his jacket again.

Oh okay! Blood on clothes is normal while eating dinner! Note down! Yeay.

When the maids served our foods, everyone silently began to eat.

Why is nobody talking?
Last dinner they tried to have a conversation with us, but now?
Are they scared?
Right, they didn't see us after that accident where I flipped out.

They don't want to let us go, but they also feel bad for forcing us.
Because...they love us..

I don't know why but suddenly I feel myself getting hyped up.
I will just... give it a try! They are not good people, they are killers, and they eat with blood on their clothes...but...they still try really hard for us and I realize that I like that. This shows that we really are important for them.
If they are so desperate for us staying here, than it must be real that they always searched for us! Why else would they try so hard for us to love them?

So I stopped eating and stand up.

Everyone else stop eating too.

,,My name is Stefanie Erienne Vastello, and I'm glad to meet you all. ,,Mother, Father"
I look them both in the eyes and give them a small bow.
,,Please be nice to us"

I sit down.

Nobody speaks.

Suddenly I hear a fork fall to the ground.
Exactly like me, last dinner.

It was my Dad's.
His face was full of shock.
I think I just made the most powerful man on earth speechless.

,,My daughters...they are back.. They were clinging on their dad when they were kids. And now..." He speaks more likely to himself then to us.

He raises himself and clears his voice.
Then he speaks up with his normal rough dark voice.

,,It's a honor for Alejandro Vastello, to meet Stefanie Erienne Vastello and Luna Estelle Vastello."
He bows too. Like I did.

Then also my mother stands up.
,,It's a honor for Lauriel Vastello, to be the mother of Stefanie Vastello and Luna Vastello."
She bows too.

Then suddenly everyone was standing up and bowing in front of me and Luna.

I was like ice. I couldn't move.
The whole Italian mafia, the most powerful people in this country, are bowing in front of us.

I look to Luna and her eyes were opened widely and she was also looking at me perplexed.

Maybe it really wasn't that bad to give them a chance to be a family...
