The Daughter They Wish Was Never Born
The Moretti Don who never bowed to anyone, the father who had always been so stern and unfeeling.
"Let him in," I finally said.
He raised me. I couldn't be completely heartless.
Ten minutes later, a soaked Don Moretti was brought to my office.
"Alessia..." his voice was broken. "My daughter..."
"I am not your daughter." I kept my back to him, staring out the window. "Your daughter is dead. She died in that cell."
"No, you're alive! I know I was wrong, but you are my blood..."
"I am Alessia O'Connell." I turned, my eyes devoid of warmth. "And you are my enemy."
