Life Works in Mysterious Ways
Sophia Ivanov
Loosing my mother at the age of 16, the only person out of my parents who showered me with love, being left behind with the person who hated me. I always thought it was because I was a girl but he never looked at my baby sister Lucy with the look of disgust on his face. He always had the look of adoration and affection in his eye's whenever he looked at my brother's and Lucy.
At he age of 20, my wedding was ambushed by a mafia, my husband killed in between the crossfire and me being rushed to the hospital.Waking up in that hospital I wasn't the same giddy Sophia. I started training, getting better then my brother's. Papa giving me extra attention then my brother's, taking me on mission's with him. Papa never let my brothers go on mission's. That was our father and daughter time. Killing people in cold blood without any remorse.
Years went past and my older brother Alessandro died. A nother person I held dearly to my heart being ripped away from me. That same year Papa stepped down as the Don of the Russian mafia, handing the responsibility over to me. Taking the Russian mafia to the next level, continuing papa's legacy but ten times better. I was worse then papa was and people feared me more then papa.
I was a Ivanov, this was my destiny but as the years went past, mafia's got fearless because papa got old and they thought papa was still the Don. Mafia's who got bold enough, to threaten my family and my mafia. I took care of them one by one but what I never expected was to find out the truth about my family, about everything I thought I knew my whole life.

Chapter: Responsibility (Chapter 18)Staring out of the window of the private jet, looking at the beautiful sunset. We were on our way back to Italy. We left around 6 o’clock this afternoon and have been in the air for an hour already and will be arriving in about an hour and a half maybe in Rome, since it was 7 o’clock already.Damien was sitting across from, sipping on his glass of scots on the rocks. God damn pussy, can’t drink it without ice because according to him it's too strong and the ice helps a little bit. Laying my head back , resting my eyes from all the exhaustion I felt. The past three days I’ve been busy non stop barely getting any sleep and papa nagging on my head to look after myself. I don’t have time to rest when I’m responsible for the protection and well being of my mafia and their family’s.The past three days here in Italy I couldn’t stop thinking about little one and Angela and when I boarded the private jet there was this thought at the back of my head about them.. Will I be able to completely

Chapter: Podzemel'ye (Dungeon) Three days........three god damn days since Sophia left for Russia and I can't stop thinking about her. She's all I could think of, when I go to sleep, when I wake up and she's even in my goddamn dreams. She's consuming my mind without her even knowing or trying. I couldn't focus on my work because she's all I could think of. I don't know why but seeing her Saturday night in that white button down shirt , knowing it wasn't the one she left in, made me infuriated. Telling us, more to Lucas mama and Elijah that she was leaving for Russia not saying why, just saying it was something she has to take care of but nothing big that they should have to worry about her. Lucas wanted to go with her but she said something in Russian to him that made him back down , deciding he didn't want to go anymore. Seeing her with those men made me want to murder them for just being so close to her, especially the one who couldn't keep his damn eyes off her, more to say her ass. Every time she would walk

Chapter: Omasu And AkiraIt's been two day's since I've returned to Russia and I've been working non stop. Turns out that the people who've done my surgery resigned that same day and disappeared off the face of the earth.Looking at these file's of the three people who were responsible for my surgery. Tracking every single one of them down, bringing them back to Russia. For the past two day's I've send my men out to where two of them were hiding. We are still trying to find the third person's location. Yesterday it was Savastian Baladin, and today we discovered where Valik Petrov was hiding. A few of my men went to get him, leaving 4 o'clock this morning and will be back tonight.Savastian wasn't talking, saying he was sworn to secrecy but he did give us the last person's name who we already had but what he said was that she was the one who did the surgery, removed it, Ulya Mozorov. It was difficult to find her because she changed everything about her, her identity and even how she looks, unfortunately we cou

Chapter: Sexual Relationship The moment Damien and I stepped inside the mansion the atmosphere changed. The laughter died down, everyone becoming serious. All of my men bowing their heads as I walked past them, towards my office. A few quickly scuring away towards their rooms to change into their work attire before I walked past them.Getting to my office I slammed the door shut out of anger, forgetting Damien was behind me."Damn Sophia." Damien groaned, walking in holding his nose."There ain't blood coming out." I scoffed, pacing up and down."God dammit Sophia, sit down you're pacing is making me dizzy." Damien groaned, sitting down on the couch in the corner of the room, laying his head back closing his eyes.Turning around I glared at him, crossing my arms."Sorry." He said lifting his arms up in defence.Sitting down behind my desk, I opened one of the draws taking out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter. Putting one between my lips, I took a long drag, puffing out the smoke. Closing my eyes I layed my head

Chapter: Doctor's Appointment "Miss Sophia." Someone whispered next to me. Knowing who the little voice belongs to I opened my eye's giving him a small smile."Morning little one." I said in a quiet voice, sitting up against the headboard."Morning, miss Sophia." Little one said scooting closer to me."Why are you awake so early little one? It is only 8 o'clock." I said looking at the clock on the desk, across the room."I'm going with pappa today, miss Sophia. He is taking me with him to the company, and then we are going to go buy me new toys and then we're going to the park." Little one said sounding exited. "Sounds fun, but what are you doing here ,isn't your pappa waiting for you? I said ruffling his hair."Miss Sophia is going with us." Little one cheered, standing up jumping on the bed."W-what?" I inquired sounding confused. Where is this suddenly coming from. Why don't I know about this. I have my doctor's appointment today and Angela was supposed to go with me. Why am I going with Octavious and little on

Chapter: Injured Right now we were having dinner. It was was 7 o'clock and almost little one's bedtime. Octavious had this routine for him ,when to wake up, when to go to sleep, when it was screen time, so that he can learn from a young age to respect what his father tell him but today Octavious made an exception for him to watch television whenever he wants because of the play date we had.Little one was in the living room watching cartoons while I was setting the table. "Nonna, ho fame." (Grandma I'm hungry)"Abbiamo quasi finito, Elijah, mancano solo pochi minuti." (It's almost done Elijah, just a few minutes.) Angela said laughing from the kitchen."Elijah, potresti andare a chiamare Leo e Lucas e dire loro di scendere, la cena è pronta." (Elijah would you go call Leo and Lucas and tell them to come down, dinner is ready.) Angela said walking into the living room."Sophia would you help me with plating dinner." Angela said walking back to the kitchen.Helping Angela with plating dinner for everyon

Chapter: Chapter 9I’ve done all the shopping, bought the necessary things we need and clothes and toys for Neveah but then on my way to the De Lucas estate something caught my eye that was in the window of a store I drove by. It was a designer bag that Liyana looked up once on the internet and she couldn’t stop talking about how she wished she had the money to buy one for her because she fell in love with it at first sight . She said that the bag itself was gorgeous and that she just loved the design. I can’t even count how many times she had shown me pictures of that bag. Even if I tried I could never forget how the bag looked. It was printed in my mind. I was going to get her that designer bag and surprise her with it since tomorrow is her birthday. Grabbing my handbag I climbed out of my car and made my way towards the store. Walking into the store an employee walked towards me.“Welcome, is there anything I could help with or is there something ma'am looking for specifically?” The girl said with t

Chapter: Chapter 8It’s been three days since everything happened, what happened to Liyana and Dominic sleeping over. Thank goodness he was gone the morning when we woke up. At least he didn’t leave the stuff just laying on the couch. The blankets were folded neatly, laying on the couch. I haven’t seen or walked into him again and I’m grateful for that. The week felt so long, days felt as if it was going by slowly but it's the weekend finally, saturday. That meant it was time to go grocery shopping and buy a few baby stuff for Neveah as well. Since I can’t go shopping without buying her something new. Whether it was toys or clothes I just had to buy her something. Sometimes Elena would visit us on the weekend and help look after Neveah and spend the weekend with us even sleep over. So yesterday afterwork Elena let me know that she was coming over but I let her know that I wasn’t going to be home. She said that it would be no problem, that she would come over to help with Neveah and Liyana while I went

Chapter: Chapter 7Waking up to the sound of Neveah crying. Getting out of bed, I made my way towards her crib, leaning over to pick her up. Realising she only had half a bottle left when I reached out to grab it to feed her. I forgot to make her bottle’s last night because a certain someone I just wanted to get in my room away from him. Cradling Neveah in my arm, I fed her with the other one and sat down in the rocking chair. It didn’t take long for the bottle to be empty. Neveah’s little eyes were open staring at me, and didn't look like she was going to sleep any time soon. Might as well go make her 2 more bottles for when she wakes up again in the middle of the night because it was only 2 o’clock in the morning. Throwing a nappy over my shoulder in incase a little milk comes out when she burps. Laying Neveah down on the bed for a moment to do the kriss kross baby wrap, to keep her close to me while I am busy. I love this method because it is more convenient for me when I'm at home, then I don’

Chapter: Chapter 6How do I say this in the nicest way possible because no matter what I try to say it comes out the wrong way because of the way I say it even if I try to say it without sounding like I want him to get the f**k out of our apartment. I don’t know how I ended up in this situation with Dominic sitting in the living room with Neveah. When I stepped out of that room all I heard from Liyana was “ Come on Mr.De Luca is waiting for us in the car.” I didn’t have a chance to say anything because I was pulled out of the office where the two brothers stood smiling, waving goodbye. It's been 20 minutes since we got home and I couldn’t find the nicest way without it coming out the wrong way, to tell this giant of a man sitting in our living room to leave because I wasn’t about to let myself feel uncomfortable in my own home. Liyana basically ran to her room when we entered the apartment leaving me alone with this man and to top it off when Neveah saw him she had this adorable smile of hers and mad

Chapter: Chapter 5Making sure that she followed behind Dominic I made my way to this Mason. Getting closer to them I could hear them laughing and talking about Liyana. He was standing with his back facing me and I stopped behind him tapping him on his shoulder. As he turned around I jabbed him in his throat making him fall back.Two guys came running from behind me, bumping into me, rushing to his side helping back up. The girls just stood there staring at me and I took one step closer to them and they ran away without looking back. They helped him up and he lifted his head up looking at me.“Let go of me!” He said pushing the two guys away from his side and charged towards me.He came for me and I didn’t move. He grabbed me by the throat and I head bumped him making his nose bleed. He let go of me and wiped his nose as the blood came out.“F**king bitch.” One of his friends yelled as he came for me.He went for a jab but I ducked , slightly sliding to the side I gave a hook to his side making him stum

Chapter: Chapter 4Arriving at the club you could hear how loud the music was. Parking across the street I switched off the car and climbed out. Running across the street to go straight into the club but was stopped by the bouncer asking for my freaking ID. I didn't have time for this shit my friend needed me and I needed to find her.He let me enter after I showed my ID and as soon as I stepped inside I was engulfed with the smell of cigars, weed and the disgusting smell of alcohol. I hated that smell. In my 27 years of living I never had alcohol touch my lips just because I knew what it could do to you. I knew how it could change the person you are. I've lived through it my 18 years of living with my parents.Taking out my phone I dialled Liyana's number and she answered immediately. All I could hear was soft crying but you couldn't hear the music where she was. It was faint so I knew where she was. Pushing past the people , to get to the bathroom. I couldn’t give a shit if you were grinding on each o
