Mia, her dad and her brothers arrived at the airport and boarded their jet. Domenico, Larenzo, and Arturo took the seats closest to the front. Mia sat on the sofa. Evan and Justin took seats on the other sofa.
"When we get to New York, we will go to the estate and discuss what's next." Domenico told them. "We will talk as a family and then I will call the commission."
"What is the commission?" Mia asked them.
"That's not your business." Domenico said to her.
"Fine, whatever but dad, I expect you to keep up your end of our deal. Do not do anything to the Cena's."
"Mia, what happened when they had you?" Justin asked.
"They just showed me videos of what you do. What you all do. I saw all of my brothers killing people. I saw my father killing people. I know you ordered people killed. I know that Wade and his family do the same. No one is who I thought."
"Mia, you don't understand. I was trying to protect you from this." Domenico said. "Damn, the Cenas for this."
"It's not their fault. They just showed me the truth."
"They also made you fall for a Cena. I won't allow that."
"Dad, I love John and he is who I want to be with. I don't love Wade and I know that I never did. He and you manipulated me into that engagement and into loving him."
"Mia, I can't and I won't allow you to marry a Cena."
"I'm not talking about this with you anymore." She said turning to the face the window.
Domenico sighed. The Cenas had turned his daughter against him. He never wanted Mia to know anything about the business. He knew Wade was cheating with the stripper but he and Ben had an agreement. He would talk to Ben and Wade and let them know if they wanted to combine their families, Wade would have to break it off with the stripper and be faithful to Mia.
Justin moved to sit by Mia. He wanted to talk to her just the two of them. "Mia, I'm sorry you found out everything."
"How can you be okay with killing people?"
"It's not easy but I do what needs to be done."
"Justin, please make sure dad doesn't hurt John and his family."
"I will keep an eye out, I promise." Justin looked and saw that no one was paying attention. He wanted to know exactly how close his sister and John had gotten. "Mia, how close did you and John get?"
"If I tell you, will you tell dad?" She whispered.
"No. Whatever you tell me is just between us." He said softly.
"I love him more than anything."
"Mia, how close did you get?"
"I slept with him more than once."
"Mia, you were supposed to wait until marriage. Your wedding night."
"Justin, do you honestly think I didn't sleep with Wade when we got engaged?"
"What?"
"When Wade and I got engaged, he convinced me to sleep with him. He said since we were getting married, it was fine."
Justin held his anger. Wade had manipulated her all through their relationship. "So, you decided it was okay to be with John?"
"Yes. I love him and I don't want anyone else but him. What I experienced with him, I have never felt before. I know that Wade and I were not in love. I never felt for him what I feel for John. The excitement of having a life together, the joy of sharing our interests and all the thoughts we have. The passion of being in his arms and the passion we have between us. I'm going to be with him." Justin looked at his sister and smiled. He could tell that she was in love with John and that made him happy. He knew that even if her father objected, he had to help her be with John.
"Don't worry, it will all work out." He said as he hugged her. "Mia, you know we never told you what we were doing to protect you."
"I'm not a child Justin. I could have handled it. And I am a member of this family. That should have counted for something." Justin sighed. He knew she was right. Mia had been in danger her whole life and she hadn't even known it. He knew his sister and he knew that she would have been able to handle it. "Look, whatever you did, you're still my brother. And I love you."
John sat in the seat on the plane and stared out the window. He'd had to let her go. For her own sake. But he didn't know if he could stomach the thought of her marrying Wade. Wade and his family had taken so much from them already. And now he had taken Mia from him too. Randy sat in the seat next to his wife and looked back at John. He was sad for him. But they had done what they'd been sent to do. They'd shown Mia the truth about her family and her future husband's. Even as the words ran through his head, Randy had cringed. Mia wasn't Wade's. She was John's and he had to talk to his father to figure out a way to keep it that way.
"John, we will find some way for you and Mia to be together. She wants that." Randy said to him.
"Randy, I love her. I do. I'm willing to let her go to keep her safe. I don't want Wade or his brothers or father to hurt her. I don't think her father would hurt her but I don't know about Wade and his family."
"John, Don Romano will let no one hurt his daughter including Wade and his family. I have a feeling her brothers, Justin and Evan, will help Mia in anyway. And I think we can get them to help you see her."
"I want to see her. I want to more than see her. I want to build a life with her. I want to be her husband. I can't let her marry Wade but I can't let her be hurt."
"John, Mia loves you that is very obvious. I believe she will do whatever she has to to be with you. Even defy her father." Randy looked at his wife who was sleeping peacefully and then back to his brother. "Don Romano won't hurt her and he won't let anyone else hurt her. Believe that."
John nodded and turned his attention back to the window. He had to find a way to see her when they got back to New York. He had to know she was okay.
Mia's plane arrived in New York and a car took them to the family compound on Long Island. Mia was excited slightly to be back home but she wanted to be with John. She got out of the car when the bodyguard opened the door. Her mother came out to meet them.
"Oh, Mia, you're safe." Rosa said hugging her daughter. "I was so worried about you."
"I'm fine mama. I was always fine." Mia replied.
"Where were you?"
"Let's talk about that later." Domenico said walking up. "Everyone in the house. Boys, family meeting time."
Mia sighed as they all headed in the house. She knew this meeting was probably about John and the fact that he and his family kidnapped her. She had been raking her brains to find a way to stop what might come and she was certain she had it. She would go to the commission herself and talk with them.
All the boys took a seat in the office while their father sat at his desk. Mia made her way to the secret passage that her brothers had shown her years ago. She could hear what they were saying.
"I want us as a family to talk about what will happen to The Cenas. They kidnapped Mia and they have to pay.
"Dad, you promised her you wouldn't do anything." Justin said to him.
"They can't get away with taking her. They broke the agreement and they have to pay. The commission will meet and make the decision about their fate. I can't change it." Domenico said. He knew the commission would side with him and the Cenas would likely be taken out.
"Dad, please don't let the commission do anything. You told Mia that you wouldn't hurt the Cenas." Evan added hoping like Justin to stop their father from hurting them.
"This is how it will be. The commission will meet this afternoon and decide the fate of the Cenas no exceptions boys." Domenico said them. "Now, this meeting is over. We will head to the commission."
Mia knew she had to stop what might happen. She would follow her dad and brothers to the commission meeting and she would tell the commission that John and his family didn't kidnap her. She would swear that she went willingly with them. She would explain that she was in love with John and Not Wade. She left that day because she didn't want to marry Wade. She would do whatever to make sure John and his family were safe.
