Mafia’s Sick Princess Novel – I am eighteen years old. My parents abandoned me because of illness. I don’t want to blame them, but now they tell me that I am not actually their child, and I have five brothers! “Um… thank you again for meeting me sir.” I could see his smile falter when I said sir. I didn’t really know what else to call him. “It’s no problem at all, I’m very glad I came. I didn’t realize someone had used my … um… donation to have a child. I was never able to have a daughter of my own so the fact the I’ve found you… is … well a blessing to say the least.” Said my bio-dad as he looked at me with excitement. “He has 5 boys.” Said the young man. “5 kids?” I almost yelled then covered my mouth and looked around hoping no one was staring. He laughed at my expression causing my face to turn red. “6, actually now that I’ve found you.” said my bio-dad. I couldn’t help but smile because he acknowledged me as his kid now too. “So, I have 5 half-brothers?” They both nodded in unison. “And I’d love for you to meet them.” he said it more like a question. I looked at him stunned. “Um … where are they?” I asked.
Allie (Pov) The day I dreaded had arrived. It was my 18th birthday which meant I had to leave my home because I was a burden to my parents. They constantly told me my sickness was too much for them to handle. I couldn’t blame them; It was too much for me to handle as well. I prepared myself for a year, I saved money by working at MacDonalds and tried my best not to touch anyone because if they had a cold and I caught it, it could cause me to flare up, which meant another hospital trip. I walked on the sidewalk with no direction in mind. Eventually I found myself sitting on a bench looking at kids playing in the park with their parents. The parents chased after their kids with such love in their eyes it reminded me of when my parents looked at me like that until I got sick. After hours had passed, I decided to go to a convince store and buy some food. I walked a block and found a store. Once inside the store I looked for snacks, when I found the one I wanted, I went to go stand in line, when out of nowhere 2 armed men entered the store.
An hour past after they had taken my blood. The officer made a few calls then came to me with half a smile. “So, I found a relative. He’s your biological father and he says if it’s alright with you, he’d love to bring you to his home.” “My name is Allie, it’s nice to meet you sir. Thank you for taking the time …” Before I could finish, he pulled me into a hug. I never felt so much love and compassion from a hug. “Papa, you’ll scare her.” said the young man behind him. “Right, sorry Principessa.” Said my bio-father as he let me go slowly. “It’s … Okay.” I said not really knowing what to say. “Come we have lots to talk about.” said my bio dad. They led me to a car and sat down next to me as the chauffeur started driving. “Al caffe piu vicinio per favore. (To the nearest cafe please.)” Said my bio-dad to the driver. My dad was all smiles on the way to the cafe.
Once we arrived, I kept my eyes on them. My bio-dad got out of the car first then I came out then the young guy. We went inside the cafe, and I dragged my backpack inside with me. We sat down next to a window, and I placed my pack next to me. “Um… thank you again for meeting me sir.” I could see his smile falter when I said sir. I didn’t really know what else to call him. “It’s no problem at all, I’m very glad I came. I didn’t realize someone had used my … um… donation to have a child. I was never able to have a daughter of my own so the fact the I’ve found you… is … well a blessing to say the least.” Said my bio-dad as he looked at me with excitement. “He has 5 boys.” Said the young man. “5 kids?” I almost yelled then covered my mouth and looked around hoping no one was staring. He laughed at my expression causing my face to turn red.
“6, actually now that I’ve found you.” said my bio-dad. I couldn’t help but smile because he acknowledged me as his kid now too. “So, I have 5 half-brothers?” They both nodded in unison. “And I’d love for you to meet them.” he said it more like a question. I looked at him stunned. “Um … where are they?” I asked. My dad raised his hand, and a waiter came and grabbed our orders. “So, um … there in Italy. would you like to move in with us. At least see how you feel about us then we can bring you back if you don’t want to stay.” Said the young man quickly. My bio- dad looked at me so hopeful as if waiting for my answer. If he only knew I had nowhere else to go, that his option seemed like my only option. “Yes, I’ll go with you to Italy.” “You will? Yes! Don’t worry I’ll sort everything out with your parents and …” “NO!” I said a little bit too quickly. They looked at each other in concern then back at me. “I mean my parents aren’t around anymore for you to ask them.” I said as I tried to correct my tone. “Oh, I’m so sorry for your loss … I didn’t realize … ” he paused for a moment. “Oh, and after we eat, we’ll head straight to Italy on our jet.” said my dad as he quickly changed the topic.
Allie’s(pov) I was shocked, to say the least. When I saw the plane we were going to go on, I couldn’t help but freeze in place. “Come on Principessa there is a lot more to see.” Said the young man who’s name I still didn’t know. I followed him to the private jet and inside the jet were comfortable chairs that I quickly went to sit on. I placed my bag in front of me and looked out the window. “Get some rest on the trip if you can it’s a long flight from the US to Italy.” Said the young man. “I’m sorry I haven’t asked sooner but what’s your name?” “My… name, right I’m Giorgio your third oldest brother. Oh, and I’m 20 years old.” “I’m 18 years old, just turned 18 actually,” I said as I looked away. “It’s nice to officially meet you.” He said as he laughed a bit. I couldn’t help but laugh as well. My bio dad came on the plane last and someone shut the door behind him. I put my seat back and lifted my legs. I drifted off to sleep before I realized it. After what seems to me like a few minutes that had gone by, I woke up only to realize that we had just arrived in Italy. My bio dad and brother were talking on the phone in Italian. The plane had already landed and the door was already open. I sat up and stretched a bit.
I could feel the tightness in my fingers like I did every morning and decided to stretch my fingers. “Hey Principessa, good morning sorry I didn’t wake you.” Said my bio dad as he ended his call and came near me. “It’s all right. It felt like it was time to wake up anyway.” I said as I stood and grabbed my bag. I tried not to wince at the pain in my fingers as I tried to bend them but couldn’t. I made sure not to show my discomfort as my bio dad and brother left the plane. I followed them to a car that looked really expensive. “Sir… you have a very nice car,” I said to my bio dad. He looked sad once more for a split second then placed a hand on my shoulder. “You don’t have to call me sir, you can call me Flavio or you know in the future when you feel comfortable you can call me Papa or dad. Whatever makes you comfortable.” He said then opened the car door for me to get in. I stood there shocked by his words for a moment then I didn’t make eye contact with him as I got in the car. My bio dad got in as did my brother. The chauffeur drove the car away from the airport. I looked out the window and noticed the sun was starting to rise. It was possibly 6:00 a.m. already. We drove through the streets in silence, none of us knew what to say.
30 to 40 minutes passed and we drove into a neighborhood that looked to be for the rich. We arrived at a gate that seemed to look almost golden. A man stood guard and approached the window of the car. The chauffeur Lowered its window and my dad showed his face to the guard, which immediately made the man go straight to the gate and unlock it. We drove up to the house and I could tell they were super rich. “All right we are here. Let’s go inside everyone.” Said my bio dad as he got out and went to talk to the chauffeur. “Come on, you can go in first.” Said Giorgio. He went to the door and unlocked it. “Go on in I’ll be right behind you. I forgot to ask Dad something.” He said that he walked away. I turned and faced the door while holding my bag in front of me. I opened the door and stepped in. To my left, I saw two young men chasing each other down some stairs. I couldn’t move out of the way quick enough and one guy knocked me down to the ground.
One of the guys landed on top of me while the other ran away with a computer in his hand. “Hey, get off of me!” I said as I looked at him with annoyance. “American? Who are you and why are you here?” Said the young guy with such a menacing tone that made me want to crawl away. He placed a hand behind his back and the other on my wrist. “I really hope I’m not related to you,” I said as I stared at him. “What are you talking… ” Before he could finish his sentence, two strong arms lifted him away from me and threw him to the ground. “Get off of our sister.” Said a man that looked older than Giorgio but very similar to me. “Hi Principessa, I’m your oldest brother Armando. Please forgive Piero he seems to not have looked at the group message.” Said Armando as he helped me back to my feet. I nodded as I dusted myself off and ignored the pain that was now on my back.
I grabbed my backpack and held it in front of me relieved that my fingers no longer hurt from morning inflammation. My bio dad came through the door and smiled as he looked at me. ” I see you met some of your brothers. Where is everyone else?” He directed his question to Armando. “Upstairs.” “They should have been eating breakfast by now.” “It’s really early, they usually sleep in, you know the usual,” said Giorgio as he walked up next to our bio dad. “Right, well not today they don’t.” Said my bio dad as he marched upstairs. I was left to stare at my 3 brother’s as Piero just glared at me. “Come with me there is breakfast waiting.” Said Armando as he led the way to a dining table filled with food.
