|Sean's POV|

"And when do you plan to do all that?" I asked, staring intently at Lea who shrugged as Alessio asked, adding another question to what I asked, "And what do you plan to tell him, hm?"

"Hey, Enzo, I agree we broke up—" I was cut off by Alessio, "Oh wait, They were never in a relationship to break up in the first place."

"Right" I mumbled before continuing, "I mean, when I left—

I was cut off, yet again by Alessio, "Wait. When I left because you threatened me." Glaring at Alessio, I cleared my throat before continuing, "Look,I know we weren't in a relationship or anything but I hid something from you and I feel like you deserve to know. Happy?" I glared at Alessio who nodded with an innocent smile.

"Yeah but I wouldn't put it like that. I'd say—" he cleared his throat before mimicking Lea's voice, "I didn't like how the thing we did not have between us ended. Anyway, I popped out a kid four years ago and didn't want to tell you because you told me to fuuuuuck off."

"Are you two serious? You guys are over thirty and still behave like god damn kids!" Elizabeth scolded making Alessio and I glance at each other, "We aren't over thirty."

"I'm twenty two" Alessio corrected at the same time as I did, "I'm too. We aren't even close to thirty."

"What he said" Alessio mumbled, frowning at his mother. Elizabeth sighed, "over twenty and you two still behave like children. This is a serious matter."

"Yeah we are talking about Enzo Fucking De Luca here. That dude will have my head if he finds out I've been hiding this from him along with his baby mommy." I said rolling my eyes.

"So we don't tell him that you knew." He mumbled, stating the obvious which only resulted in a glare from me.

"You knew too" I said, looking at me.

"I don't know what you're talking about." He said, frowning. Well, wasn't he a good actor?

"Seriously, Alessio?" Lea raised her brows at him. Alessio nodded, taking a step back, "Yeah I don't see what you're talking about."

"Guys, why are you two overreacting?" Lea asked, frowning. "It's not like Enzo will kill you guys, chillax."

"Yeah speak for yourself" Alessio mumbled, "You, he won't kill, but us? Yeah, he will" he added, "At least, he'll try to."

"I'll tell him that you guys promised not to say anything. And you guys always keep your promises right? You didn't tell anyone." Lea asked making Alessio look on the ground, instantly. "Yeah...yeah we don't break our promises."

"Alright, Who the fuck did you tell, Alessio?" Lea asked, gritting her teeth at Alessio.

"Don't be mad" he scratched the back of his neck, "Only Izzy, Freddy knows. They know that they've got a lil cousin."

"Only Izzy and Freddy?" Elizabeth asked to which he nodded, "Yep. They promised not to tell anyone else."

"Else?" Lea repeated, glaring at Alessio who sighed, "Izzy told Arabella who told Margot while Freddy told Dominic and Dante."

"Who the hell is Margot?" Lea asked, confused.

"He meant Marissa." I corrected and watched as her mouth formed an 'o' in recognition.

"So you're telling me that Dominic Dante, Izzy, Freddy, Arabella and Marissa knows. Six people know and that's all?" Lea said to Alessio who nodded, "The kids were unable to keep the secret but well, they're…kids."

"Yeah like you." I mumbled but that didn't go unheard by Alessio who smacked the back of my head, "You were the one who told Freddy and he was the one who told Dominic and Dante. I knew that kid can't keep his mouth shut that's why I only told Izzy."

"But Izzy told Arabella" I argued. He patted the area where he smacked me earlier, "Yeah, well turns out we were both wrong, bro."

Just then a faint sound of footsteps could be heard. We all snapped our head in the direction of the sound only to see Nick standing there, rubbing his eyes, "What's going on?"

"We were discussing on how to inform your dad about your existence." Alessio replied making Nick frown, confused, "What?"

Lea shot her brother a glare, "Don't mind him. Come here." Nick then walked towards Lea and she picked him up. He rested his head on her shoulder, still sleepy.

"Are you hungry?" Lea asked Nick who shook his head, "I'm sleepy."

"Then sleep. Why'd you wake up?" She asked, softly. It was unbelievable how the once most feared assassin became such a loving and caring mother. She changed completely just for this one boy.

It was fascinating.

"I was about to sleep again but I noticed I was alone. Good night, mommy." He then began closing his eyes and fell into a slumber.

"We'll continue this conversation tomorrow. Okay?" Lea whispered,not wanting to wake up the kid. We all nodded in response. Alessio and I nodded at each other before I bid farewell to Lea and her mother then I left, going to my own house.

I hoped that Enzo would take the news of him having a son well. Who was I kidding? That was Enzo bloody De Luca.

He was gonna throw a fucking tantrum; Alessio's words, not mine.
