: Confession
Grey stared at the plane until it was out of sight. It felt like a pair of him had disappeared and as if he
wouldn't see it again. Well, Grey had always battled with love and the relationship with Caramel was his
first best one. It felt bad that he was losing it because of who he was. And no way could change. There
was no way he would run from his responsibilities, from his existence.
His phone rang suddenly, jerking him out of his thoughts.
"Hello, Alfred."
"Hi, Grey. Leo wants to speak with you and all the elders. I think we should meet at my house as fast
as possible," he suggested.
Grey squeezed his forehead in concentration. "Why? What does he want to say?"
Alfred sighed. "I think you should be there to hear him out. It’s not something I should say but I think it
has to do with something from the past," he hinted.
"Has he remembered anything?"
"Well, yes."
Grey groaned. "And why do I need to hear him out? It's all clear that he killed my father and also shot
me. He tried to kill me, what other explanation does he want to make? He would just make me want to
kill him." He spoke through his clenched teeth.
"Grey, please. I want you to just listen to him. Let’s see what he’s on with. Please, Hercules," he
beseeched softly.
Grey thought about it quickly. "Alright, I will be there soon."
Leo had sweaty hands before the elders would arrive. He could stop thinking if his decision was the
best. He knew what the result would be but he doesn't care anymore.
He would die nonetheless. What if Hercules discovers he was a spy? He would definitely kill him.
The door opened and Alfred walked inside. "Are you ok, Leo?"
Leo looked up at him and nodded briefly. "Yes, I'm fine. I just need to get this out of my head as soon
as possible because danger looms ahead," he hinted.
Alfred nodded briefly and pulled off his suit jacket. The door opened again and there of the elders
walked inside; Jayden, Luciano, and Gregory.
‘What's this all about?" Gregory demanded.
"Well," Alfred nodded once. "Let's wait for Hercules."
Leo couldn't say a word, instead, he had his head bent in fierce concentration as if he was praying for
redemption or fortifying himself for what was about to come.
The door opened again and Aphrodite stepped inside. She hesitated before he moved to sit. "Is this
supposed to be a scary meeting? No greetings? No smiling?"
"It's very urgent and dangerous, Aphrodite," Luciano hinted.
Aphrodite sighed and crossed her long legs. "Ok, guess I only have to be patient."
"I'm impatient," Gregory groaned.
"Come on, Gregory!" Alfred called suddenly.
Gregory shrugged slightly. "What? I have works to do."
‘We all have but this is equally important," Alfred informed him.
The door opened suddenly and Grey stepped inside, followed quickly by Charles. He hesitated as he
looked at the elders before he moved to sit.
"I hope this is worth it," Grey muttered.
‘What the fuck is going on here? What are you going to say, father? Remind us about the fact that you
were the one that killed Grey's father?" Charles yelled in annoyance.
"Calm down, Charles. Let's hear him out," Aphrodite voiced out.
Charles glared at Leo before he moved to sit. "Fine!"
Alfred sighed and looked at Leo. "We are all set now. You can start talking," he gave him the initiative.
Leo didn’t respond for some minutes, his head still bent. Then he slowly looked up.
"To begin with, I didn’t forget anything. In fact, I didn't suffer from memory loss, to begin with."
Grey huffed.
"So, you were pretending?"
Leo nodded briefly. "Yes because I didn't want to explain but I think it's the right time I do."
Grey scoffed. "Ok, we are all ears."
Leo regarded Grey for a moment. "Charles was at gunpoint," he shook his head slowly. "Giovanni had
him at gunpoint."
Charles sat up. "What? When?"
‘Ten years ago. I was at home when I had a phone call. It was from Giovanni and he told me he had
Charles at gunpoint. I was supposed to do what he wants or Charles would die instantly."
At this point, no one could say a word. They all were getting so interested in what he was saying. They
all were curious as to what Leo was going to say.
"I-," Leo hesitated. "The deal was simple. I was supposed to kill Rio and Grey to save Charles."
"What!" It was Luciano that yelled while some were even too shocked to say a word.
"And you did it?" It was a rhetorical question from Charles. "I mean you were willing to offer two lives
for my sake?"
Leo held Charles's gaze. "I couldn't let you die. Also, Giovanni was going to have someone else kill
Grey and Charles if I don't kill Rio and Grey. And I saw it as an opportunity to save Grey," he looked
over at Grey whose expression was blank.
‘Wait, you saved me?" Grey couldn't believe it. No, he couldn't believe the fact that the man that killed
his father was the one that rescued him.
Leo nodded briefly. "I shot you and took you to the orphanage," he revealed.
Grey stood immediately. His head was reeling. "Wait, I'm still not getting this. You mean it was Giovanni
that made you kill my father?"
"This is a mess!" Aphrodite muttered. "Giovanni has been the enemy all these while?"
"But you shouldn't have!" Charles yelled, he was crying. "You shouldn't have done that!"
Alfred looked at Leo for a moment. ‘Why didn't you tell me anything? Why didn't you tell Rio? If you
had, we would have sorted it out."
The tears streamed down Leo’s face in regret. "I had just a few hours.
There was no time to talk."
"But that didn't justify anything!" Charles yelled.
"I know," Leo sucked in a breath. ‘There's more," he said suddenly and everyone turned their attention
to him again. "Giovanni knows who the real Hercules is."
