CRYSTAL POV
------------------------------------
It has been a week now since the down fall of the Russian Mafia, I feel so giddy and the time lonely. I alone has been in these building for the whole weeks, heck I don't want to.
I feel so lonely, the whole building was so big for me to handle.
And at times like these, i see the movie from Netflix.
But then there was something that was strange about these things that I do, because most of these things feels so familiar.
Like I have done these things before.
There was a time I saw a hot a huge flash from my memories.
And they were no good memories. They are so stinking. I did not want to go back to that life.
I was treated like a freeking maid, when here I am a queen, at least that was how the Klaus' men sees me.
Klaus always come home around 10pm and at that time I am always on the couch doing my daily routine, ofcourse watching movie.
My best show Is Friends. Which of course, Logan introduced to me.
The show is so funny, and so engaging.
I never miss any of this.
So whenever everybody left. I am always left alone seeing the show. Today, after Klaus kissed me good morning and a good bye kiss.
Logan begged Klaus to allow him stay with me so he won't visit his bar to work and make Grayson do the work for him. And in exchange, Klaus would pay with his body?.
"Excuse me, your body?". I asked almist like a jealous wife, I remember one of those TV shows where the female gets overly jealous over her man. And they end up breaking apart.
I do not want that for me and Klaus. So I always try to hold my feelings of jealousy whenever Logan acts all flirty towards Klaus.
The gy is a very good person. So young, handsome and petite.
And so innocent for the world he finds himself in. Just like me.
So I have grown to like him too kind of.
Logan always makes sure every one around him feel among. Since Arianna left for the states, I was and here we are in Italy, in Klaus' father home.
I am always face timing her around 9am while she teaches me how to do these morning treatment. Skin care routine ofcourse, I usually eat h her do her thing and now I am sure I can do it without her guidance.
And now, my skin is not pale anymore, they look so beautifully tonned and shinny.
The same to my now shiny.
"Morning gorgeous! Well, queen, I am so elated to spend the day with you alone." Logan replied my question about Klaus paying with his body. I am about to reply when he cuts me off.
"Well, I am not gonna suck man's dick, I am only gonna make him pay with his body by drawing tatoos on them. All these tattoos on his body, I made them". Logan chimes, his natural long blond hair bouncing has he held my forearm like a kid
I smile, giving Klaus a pleading look.
"You know, . For someone who claims to be manly, Logan you are so female. You like to act like a bitch."
Klaus says to Logan, giving him a funny look. We all laugh, except Logan ofcourse, who happens to be holding his own laughter.
"Okay, I get that I am a fucking bitch. But I get to spend the night with the queen isn't it?." Logan replied. Earning a chuckle from Klaus.
"Does anyone have to do something?. If you don't mind, can I steal Klaus?".
I ask sheepishly. "Sure Queen. He is all yours." GRAYSON VELENO joked.
I and Klaus proceed to our room, he locked the door from behind and stares at me with a look of contempt.
His eye brow raised, in a questioningly manner.
"Hey, you okay?". He voiced when I did not say anything at first.
His fingers stroking my cheeks softly.
"Well, yes I am not fine". I begin, staring at the worried Klaus when he heard my first statement. I cut him off before he can say anything.
"No. I mean, not in a way you should be worried for. But yeah, I am not okay. I am beginning to regain my memories. I am seeing these things about me been a maid to my family? I mean you said my mother died. But I am been a maid to her. And I am not young In my memory. It is so confusing, there are a lot of things I need to know about me". I say, now I am the one that is worried. And I am not Clam. I feel curio, I need to find out about me.
"Well, do not think that way, I really need you to calm down okay?. Well, I recommend that you do stress the process. It would only hurt you." He cups my cheek, assuring me.
"So, is that only what you can remember?". His eyes scanning me, I can see the look. Guilt!.
Like he is guilty if something.

NICKLAUS POV
--------------------------------
Never have I ever been these scared in my life. I feel like if she ever regain her memories, I am in for shit. A whole lot of it. She is going to hate me. She is going to make me pay for it. I have done a fucked up things to her. And she does not need to know about it. Because I never knew she would be the one. I never knew her mother, Bloom, had a daughter. And her daughter who happenned to be a world renowned assassin during her time. Who the same was my teacher, my mentor.
I learnt a lot of things from her. She was also like a mother to me.
She had died because of me. Well, because of my father.
At least that is what I had been told. But I knew better, my father made me order the hit because he wants me to feel guilty.
To my father, guilt makes you a man.
And to show me what is like to be a king, a king that can be able to rule these empire, and because in the process of training to be a king, I must loose my loved ones.
I accepted these. Because he said, to be a king, he had to order the hit on my mother.
And I did the same to Bloom, Someone who I saw like my mother after my own mother was killed by my own father's order.
I heard he was been too cowardly, he could not kill her with his own bare hands, so he made his friend, Pekhan, who happens to die by own hands to kill my mother.
That part was not really clear. Father made sure to keep his slate clean.
Even I his son, van not seem to understand the reason behind the killings. Knowing there is something else behind his process of killing Crystal's mother and my own mother, I grew hungry and curious.
So I took over his empire. Searching for answers.
I still feel guilty for ordering the hit on Crystal mother.
And I did not want Crystal to find out about these. She must not regain her memories.
I would be fucked if she does know I killed her mother.
The only reason I took her in my empire is because I am after Marcel, her father.
And I made her queen of my empire, because I want her, because I already fall for her.
And I am going to die by her hands of it means to keep these empire.
I would not kill her like my father had done my mother.
Yes! My empire is at risk, so if anything happens to me. I have Grayson Veleno.
Alejandro, Logan, Damien, Dominic and my family.
These empire would never crumble if it is been destroyed from the inside.
I am beginning to understand my father's reasons.
The only thing Vincenzo os scared of his own mind.
He has control over everything. He has brought greatness, and made mighty men fall at the foot of his empire.
The only that will make him crumble is his own mind. That was why he made me king before he looses his mind.
That is why he made me king before destroys his own empire by himself.
Vincenzo is the strongest man I have ever seen. He does not dear anyone, anything. Living or dead.
The only thing he is scared of is his own mind.
When one looses their mond, they tend to do destroy their empire.
Now I understand why he was not the one who trained me.
He thought he was a monster.
So he did not want me to turn into him.
That was why he hired Bloom, he had it all planned out already.
And it sure is a coincidence that I brought her daughter into these empire. That was why my father is so much against the idea of me falling for a woman.
He didn't want me to loose myself to my own mind just like he had done.
"One's mind destroys one." Vincenzo usually tells me, whenever I ask why he had to kill my mother and couldn't father up to be the one to train me. Rather than making me grow to love another woman. For training.
And now the same thing is about to happen to me. Like it happened to my father. I am about to loose myself to these woman, to these empire.
Stating into Crystal Gerardo innocent eyes, she makes me feel guilty.
Her innocent eyes mekes me feel guilty.
I am her mother's killer.
Because my father made me do it.
But in my world, there is not excuse for murder, murder is murder.
But Will Crystal understand these?.
I killed her mother afterall.
"I need you to know that whatever happens, Whatever memories you regain. You need to trust me okay?". I asked hurriedly.
I cannot end it like my father. I am going to have Faith in us.
