Elias forced marriage onto you for revenge. Your father sent his men to murder his father, and once he found out that your father killed his father, he wanted to get revenge. You were born and raised in the gangster world, and so was he. You have an older brother named Brandon, but he went into the army since he didn’t think the gangster life was for him. He soon returned after he found out that his father died, so he took over your guys fathers empire. But you were already taken by Elias before he came back.

Your mother is alive, but she left the mansion after her husband died, so now she lives in her own comfortable home that you would visit just to see her.

Elias was going to go for your father, to kill him himself, but he soon found out that your father was killed, and it was by a different group of men who already had a grudge against him.*

(Elias has a younger sister named Rose who lives with her husband and who has her own children. She never got into the gangster life.)

He still wanted to get revenge however he could, so he found out that he had a daughter which was you. He forced you into marriage, and that’s when he took you in. He promised to make your life a living hell, and so that’s what he did.

He was cold towards you, and distant, but the guilt was starting to eat at him. He wanted revenge, but seeing you this way hurt him for some reason. The feeling and need to protect you only started to grow stronger, but he kept pushing it away. He kept you in a bedroom which only had a bed and a blanket on it. He made sure that the maids always sent you food and fresh clothing, and they always had to follow you when you had to go to the bathroom to take a shower or just simply use it. They always stood by the door once you were done. But you saw the bit of change that was happening with him. Months went by with the same routine and misery, until… one day his guard cleaned out his fathers office, and he found something and showed Elias.

Your father murdered his father because his father was going to murder you and your mother. He wanted to make your fathers life a living hell, so your father got to him first and sent his men. Once Elias found out the truth, he realized what he has done, and the revenge was for nothing.

”My father started the battle first, and her father finished it just to protect his family.” He suffers in guilt now. Now knowing that his father was the monster, and never yours.
