Mattia pov

"tell him i wanted to talk to him" i heard a voice say to my guard, i recognize it, jackson's. i rolled my eyes as i saw my guard approach me and i already knew he came to tell me jackson wanted to talk to me

"let him come in" i said to my guard who nodded and left again, he came back with jackson "make this quick, i don't have all day" i said to jackson as soon as he entered the room, jackson nodded walking up to the chair that was in front of me

"i need your help" he said taking his seat

i narrowed my eyes

"con cosa?" i said connecting my fingers together (translation: with what?)

"i killed liam.." he quickly said, my eyes widen, liam was such a powerful man especially his family, they'll do anything for their son. this isn't good

"che cozzo ti prende?" i yelled at him (translation: what the fuck is wrong with you?)

"non è questo il mio punto" he said making me frown (translation: that isn't my point)

"i can't help you out with this. your crazy" i said grabbing my papers from the corner of my desk, i went back to signing them as jackson groaned

"your my ally, your supposed to help me out" jackson said running a hand through this hair, i looked back up at him

"yes but not with that" i said arguing back

"all you have to do is say you saw sebastain with liam and then liam was found dead" jackson said making me laugh, what kind of friend was jackson? putting the blame on his friend who had nothing to do with anything

"your cruel" i laughed even more

"i'm serious" jackson said as i stopped laughing. i still didn't want to be involved with jackson's dirty work, who knew what he was up to.

"i'm not helping you out" i said truthfully, jackson looked taken back but then got up

"fine, i don't need your help" jackson said collecting his things "but just keep in mind, i know your little secret" jackson said making me snap my head up, he had a smirk, gosh i wish to smack that smirk off of his face

"what are you talking about?" i asked getting up as well

"i know you and natalia were forced to get married, there's really no love there. i wonder if the other mafias knows that." jackson said as his smirk grew bigger

"and what will you do?" i said crossing my arms up to my chest

"nothing, for now. but that isn't all i know" jackson said making me narrowed my eyes and get confused even more

"is this another threat?" i said to jackson who laughed and shook his head

"if that's what you want to call it" jackson said walking up to the door, his hand was on the knob as he turned back around to look at me "i saw you that night" jackson started smirking again

"what?" i said

"i saw you the night natalia's brother died, you had a knife in your hand as he died right in your hands" jackson said in a lower voice but made sure i was able to hear

"that never happened" i said shaking my head

"natalia doesn't know that tho" jackson laughed, but there was no way she will believe him "let's not forget how you also know about yours and hers parents background, but you won't say anything because you fell for natalia and you don't want to separate from her" jackson said with a shrug

how much does this guy know?
