" Uncle." never knew this five-letter word will feel so heavy on my lips, that uttering it will take every inch of strength from my body. " Why?"

I asked him as he stands in front of me, along with the stranger, who now I know is my enemy and the doctor.

I am reaping what I sowed, I shouldn't have come here without guards or informing Stefano, I made a big mistake, a mistake that is going to cost me more than I am ready to lose.
