Julianna pov:
We finally made it home.
"Can you help me sneak her in I don't want to over whelm her the first day here" I ask gio as a guard helps get her things.
"Of course lets go" he says as he puts his hand on my lower back.
We open the door making sure no one is in sight.
We spot Elijah and call him over.
"Where is everyone" I ask Elijah.
"The kitchen or out why?" Elijah asks.
I come out from behind gio with reina asleep in my arms.
"Oh my god" Elijah went wide eyed.
"She looks just like you Julianna" he says from what he can see with her eyes closed.
"Thank you, I want to fully introduce her to everyone tomorrow so if you can please set up a fake meeting in the living room with just Gio's close people and all of mine" I ask.
"Of course can't wait to meet her" Elijah says and goes to make the meeting.
I lay her in my bed for tonight just so she doesn't wake up scared.
"Uh thank you for everything you've done so far for me to get her" I say to Giovanni.
"Julianna, as much as we hated each other , we are gonna be living together for awhile tell uh everything is over and we signed an alliance not to kill each other's people I want us to start over" Giovanni says.
"You want us to be friends?" I ask.
"At least try, I don't wanna argue in-front of your daughter and I'd like us to get along" he says.
"Me too" I say back.
"I'm looking forward to this new friendship of ours love , see you tomorrow" gio says and then shuts my door.
Next day
Why is the sun so damn bright.
Wait.
I don't feel her next to me.
I jump up from my sleep and look next to me to see reina missing.
Fuck.
I bring her home and she gets kidnapped.
I grab my gun from under my pillow and head downstairs to look for her.
No one is up.
Wait I hear laughter.
I look in the kitchen to see reina giggling at Giovanni as he dropped a pancake on his head.
I watch them for a little longer as they make food.
My heart literally feels like it's melting.
This is adorable.
I sent my gun down gently and I sneak a picture but it made a noise damn it.
"Morning Julianna" gio says with a smile.
"Mama" reina says running into my arms.
"Morning baby, morning Giovanni" I smile back.
This feels weird.
Being nice and not arguing with him.
"Gio dropped a pankcake when he t-tried to flip it over" she giggles making me smile big.
"I know I saw" I say looking at him.
"Here's your food princess reina, and yours bossy" he says handing us pankcake and bacon.
"I'm not bossy" I roll my eyes playfully.
"It smells good in here wha-"
Well looks like they are gonna meet sooner than I wanted, there's goes the fake meeting.
Reggie has his jaw open and eyes wide open.
"Holy shit" he says looking at reina and then at me and then at gio.
Wait he doesn't think
Oh god.
"Okay I know you guys flirt a lot and there is sexual tension but was the hate an act?" Reggie says pointing at gio and reina.
"NO" I yell.
"And language around the kid man" Giovanni points at him.
Awe.
NO.
"Aye what's with the not so whispering holy shit" kim says.
"Oh for god sakes" I sigh.
"Can you guys go get the rest of the gang and Elijah please" I ask and they do.
5 mins later.
"So you wanna explain why I see a mini Julianna and Giovanni" Cassidy says.
"Okay first off I'm not the dad" gio says.
"Then why does she have your deep blue eyes and dimples" Red asks.
I look at reina and then gio.
Damn they do look alike.
But he isn't the father.
"I don't know it's actually kinda creepy, anyway this is my daughter reina, the her me and Maeve sometimes speak of but never said the name" I say.
"Wait so you knew about her?" Violet asks Maeve.
"Yes" she says.
"That's auntie Mae Mae" reina smiles.
"Awww" the girls and guys besides red say.
Red looks pissed.
For what?
"And that's uncle Eli" she says pouting to Elijah.
I look at gio because she hasn't even met him yet.
"They we're playing dolls this morning" he whispers to me and I nod.
Cute.
"YOU ALSO KNEW?" The girls yelled at Elijah.
"Uh yea so did Giovanni" Elijah says back.
"What the fuck Julianna your damn enemy knew first too?" Kim says.
"He found out two weeks ago when I asked him if I could bring her home" I say.
"Is that why your room is the same hallway as his now?" Leo asks.
"Yes"
"And your okay with this" Reggie asks gio.
"Yea why wouldn't I be" gio asks.
"Well for one I thought you two hated each other and two mafias are after us" violet says.
"We are trying to get along so there isn't any fighting or violence infront of reina and even with two mafias after us we got extra guards and more weapons coming for you guys to sell and Julianna hasn't seen her in two years" Giovanni explains.
My cheeks feel hot.
Why? All he did was explain why he was okay with this.
I look at the girls to see them smiling at us.
I give them a what look and the just look at me, gio , and reina then back at me.
Ohhhhh.
I flip them off from the side so reina doesn't see.
"Cute anyways hi I'm auntie cass, and this is auntie Kim and vi" Cassidy says pointing to her and the girls.
"And I'm uncle Reggie or uncle reg, and they are uncle Leo and red" Reggie says.
"Why is your name r-red" she asks.
He looks uncomfortable.
"Uh sweetie his favorite color is red so we call him red but his name is Raiden" I say to her and she just nods.
"W-well I'm Reina Amara Hernandez, and I-I'm four years o-old" she says with her head up and hands on her hips.
That's my girl.
I look over at Giovanni to see him smile a little.
"Well she is Definitely a mini Julianna for sure" Cassidy says.
"Oh yea the attitude and Evil glare for sure" Leo chuckles.
"Mama can me , you , and G-Gio go outside to the garden?" She asks.
"Of course little devil lets go, I'll see you guys later" I say to them and head to the garden with reina and Giovanni.
I'm happy.
Now please let this last.
