"I'm gonna miss you" Sean said, wiping away a fake tear before hugging me.
I chuckled before hugging him back. "We will meet in a few months." It was true. Sean will be coming to see Enzo in a month or two so that they could discuss how to take down their enemies. Sean also told me that I could not leave and return unless The Boss says so which sucks. But of course, I'll be free to do whatever I want apart from leaving the damn place without his permission.
"I know." He replied, "I'll miss you."
"I'll miss you too." I broke the hug and grabbed my suitcase. I'll be staying with the Italians for at least three to four months. The man from earlier who I learned was named Marco helped me with my suitcases. I then got into the Black SUV before Marco drove away.
I sighed as I rested my head against the headrest. Three to four months.. How am I going to help the Italians and avenge my parents at the same time?
I can't hit pause now. I've reached so far...I'll have a way to work out both at the same time. Vladimir will pay for what he did, I don't care how long it's gonna take me to make him pay but he will and I'll make sure of that.
At this point, I honestly don't care if I die while fighting Vladimir. At least, I'll know that I died fighting. I didn't die as a fucking coward. My parents would be proud of me and Alessio too.
Alessio...my one and only brother who I haven't seen in four years. What is he doing right now? Is he looking for me?
I have so many questions yet have answers to none.
The car stopped, breaking me out of my thoughts. Marco opened the door and got out of the car before opening my door.
Well, Isn't he a gentleman?
I thanked him before grabbing my suitcase and following him inside the mansion.
It was extremely huge and beautiful. From the looks of it, I could tell how luxurious would be inside. Who am I kidding? It's Enzo De Luca we are talking about here.
He's a multi billionaire if not a trillionaire. He owns several clubs, hotels or restaurants around the world so that man is damn rich. Let's not talk about how much money he gets from the mafia itself, making him thrice as rich as he already is.
Like I said, the inside of the mansion was even more beautiful than outside. Everything was beautifully arranged and very clean. There were few men inside the house. Some were watching the TV, some were eating, some were talking and laughing among themselves.
They looked so...free. Like they didn't care about what was happening around them. Is that what the Italian Mafia looks like? I've seen how other mafias worked and they were not like that. The others were more serious and would never laugh or smile atyou. They were always focused on the work they were doing becaus that was how they should be, actually. For instance, the American Mafia's peoplee were really uptight. Sean was a strict and cold leader, he would not let his men to walk around and have fun. They were stritcly ordered to work.
"Lea White?" A voice asked to which I nod. I didn't even bother to look who asked me that, I was too busy looking at everything else.
"My name is Antonio." Whoever said that introduced himself. That's when I took a look at him. He was around one inch taller than me, no big difference. His hairs were black and he had ears piercings as well as nose piercings. His eyes were a dark Grey.
Beside Antonio, stood another man, of the same height as his. He had black hairs, blue eyes. He also had ears piercings as well as nose piercing but also those of his lips.
Both of them smiled warmly at me, making me feel welcomed. I had a feeling that me and those two will get along just fine.
"I'm Blake." The other one introduced with a huge smile, "It's nice to meet you! I have a feeling that we will get along just fine."
Well, you know what they say...
Great minds think alike."Come on, I'll show you your room. Then later, you'll meet the big bad boss cause right now, he isn't here." Antonio said as he carried my suitcase away making both me and Blake follow him.
Antonio and Blake were both very good looking and handsome-if I might add. When they were walking towards the stair, I observed that some people parted away instantly, some even bowed slightly.
"And this is your room!" Blake said excitedly as he opened a door and entered a room, followed my me and Antonio.
The room was beautiful, large and the furnitures were nicely arranged. It was exactly according to my taste.
"Thank you" I smiled gratefully at the two. They smiled back.
"Don't thank us. Thank Arabella. She made sure to arrange your room herself." Blake replied with a shrug.
"Who's Arabella?" I asked, curious and confused at the same time.
"'Our sister." Antonio and Blake replied at the same time. So they were siblings? That explained the similarities.
"Wait- are you guys twins?"
They nodded with a grin, "Sì. We are twins. Antonio is older than me by eight minutes. You see, my mom has popped out four children. Me, Antonio, Arabella and Enzo. Arabella is the oldest but she's married and doesn't want to be any leader. So, Enzo is the Don."
I laughed at his choice of words.
Popped out."Anyway, I'll see you guys later. I am going to unpack." I said, unzipping my suitcase.
They smiled before taking a seat on the bed. "We'll watch and keep you company for a while."
"Yeah we got nothing to do anyway." Antonio added, laying on my bed.
"So, how old are you two?" I asked, placing my clothes in the cupboard. I had a freaking closet back home..."Nineteen" they replied at the same time."What about you?" Blake asked. Curious now, are we?"Twenty." I replied making both of them smile. They don't get tired of smiling do they?"Enzo is twenty two, Arabella is twenty four." Antonio said to which I nodded even though I didn't ask but it's good to know.Enzo was a very respected man. Many people admired him for his work. He took over the Italian Empire when he was only sixteen and made it reach great heights. He made himself known and feared. He was the Mafia King, considering that the Italian Mafia was the most powerful mafia.After unpacking my stuff, I placed the suitcase in a corner of the room before turning to Antonio and Blake who had been talking to me ever since I got here.They're really fun to be with. Almost as fun as Sean. Honestly, both of them are giving me the 'Sean Vibes'."You're fun. I like you." Blake sai
Am I in a what with who?"Run that by me again?""I do not repeat myself." He said, walking away from his table. He went behind me towards the small bar and poured himself a glass of wine before turning back to face me."Well then I didn't hear so I guess, whatever you asked me, won't be answered." I replied, standing up. I walked towards him and grabbed a glass before pouring myself a glass.He was observing my every move. I rested my elbow on the bar with my drink in my hand and turned my head to face him.He clenched his jaw and his grip tightened on the glass he was holding. I guess nobody ever behaved this way with him before.Well, there's a first time for everything."Are you and Sean Blackwood in a relationship?" He repeated, his eyes boring holes into my soul. He was getting angrier with every passing second. I could imagine fumes getting out from his ears.There was no way Sean and I would date. I like him and all but not like that. Besides he was younger than me. He was onl
"So, you stay here?" I asked Arabella as she took a seat next to me. Antonio and Blake also sat with the kids on their laps.She smiled, "Sometimes but now since you're staying here... I might stay here more often. Let's be honest, I've known you for like thirty minutes and I already like you.""So, what's for dinner Esme?" Antonio asked the old woman who approached them with a smile "Lasagna.""My favourite!!" Blake shouted excitedly making Izzy giggle. Just then Enzo entered the room. He sat at the head of the table which just happened to be...across me.They were all talking and laughing amongst themselves while eating their food at the same time. They looked like a family. The only persons who wasn't talking or laughing was Enzo and I. I was eating my food quietly and so was he.There was a man who was sitting across Enzo, facing me. My guess was that he was the underboss then beside the underboss there was a woman. They were sitting pretty close so I guessed that they were togeth
|Alessio's POV|Never have I ever thought that I would meet my sister again and that too, in the same house as the De Luca Family.I didn't waste a second and hugged the life out of her when I recognized her. I was confused when she cut me off and introduced herself as my best friend. However, I played along, understanding that she was trying to cover something.When Lea told me that it was Vladimir who killed our parents and ruined our family, I saw red. All I could think about was ways on how to kill that son of a bitch.It's been years since me and Enzo have been planning to take him down. Vladimir Molotov is the Leader of the Russian Mafia, the second most powerful mafia after the Italians.The Italians and The Russians have been at war for longer than I can remember. But the main reasons why Enzo wanted Vladimir gone was because first, he was a threat and secondly, he killed Enzo's sister.Vladimir is powerful and smart. For us to be able to take him down requires years of planni
"So what's my first mission with you people?" I asked Enzo as I sat down next to him in the huge meeting room.Less than three minutes ago, he asked- wait no- I meant, ordered me, two other guy who I don't know and his siblings except Arabella,, to gather up in the meeting room and here we are.It's been at least three hours since I've came to this mansion and I was bored shitless. I was preparing myself for later. I had to go to the 'Starlight club' and kill Paul Estes."We need to take back our weapons from Travis Lopez," Enzo replied, breaking my thoughts. He placed something on the table. When I took a closer look, only then did I realize that It was actually a blueprint."This is the blueprint of his base here in this country. He stole our shipments, which held our weapons and now we are going to get them back. The plan is simple. We get in, take the weapons, place bombs inside, get outside, blow the place and return here." Enzo explained while everybody listened closely and car
"Where are you going?" I was one step away from the door. I was already dressed up to go to the club to end Paul Estes for good but of course...someone had to notice me and it wasn't just anyone. It's the one and only...Enzo De Luca.I turned around to face him. I was wearing a short dress and my high heels. My hairs were tied into a ponytail and my tattoos were concealed like always. My tattoos consisted of a snake wrapped around a sword. If anyone sees that tattoo, they'll instantly find out who I am because I never concealed them when I go on missions and stuff. Everybody who I haven't killed but attacked only saw my tattoos and definitely told everyone about how it was. It was their only lead on me.His eyes roamed around my body shamelessly. I rolled my eyes before replying, "To meet a friend""I'm coming with you" He replied before walking in my direction, "whether you like it or not.""No you won't be coming with me" I clenched my jaw as I speak, "I am perfectly capable of goi
"What the hell is wrong with you? Are you fucking drunk?" He asked angrily, keeping his voice low."I'm not drunk" I shrugged, "Look, I need you to pretend like you don't know me and don't question."He scoffed, "Why?""What did I say about questioning?" I raised my brows."I don't take orders, White." He replied, standing up, "I fucking give them.""I know" I took a step away from him, "I promise I'll do anything you tell me to do in the upcoming week."I can't believe I've actually said that.He tilted his head to the side. "Are you serious?""Dead" I replied seriously, "I promise.""You'll do whatever I say without asking questions. You'll follow my orders...and call me Don." He smirked."I'll follow all your orders and call you...Don for only a week. Do we have a deal?"He thought for a while before nodding with a smirk, "Fine then. You promised. Break it and I'll have your head.""I'll gladly give it to you if I break it. No questions alright?" I asked and he nodded, "So I just h
The next morning, We were all sitting and having breakfast. Arabella was feeding her kids, Antonio was playing on his phone with Blake and eating their breakfast at the same time while Dominic and Dante were talking to each other. Enzo was speaking to someone over the phone and I was eating my breakfast in peace.Enzo didn't question me about anything as per our deal. I haven't spoken to him ever since last night but that doesn't mean that I'm not gonna respect my part of the deal. I'm a woman of my words.When I say I'll do something, I'll fucking do it."Where were you last night?" Arabella asked, shoving a piece of pancake in Freddy's mouth."Enzo wasn't here either." Blake intervened, "They were both out at the same time and returned at the same time. I checked in the cameras. Lea was covered in blood when she returned. Where were you guys?"""We went on a last minute mission" I replied, trying to sound as casual as possible.Blake nodded, "Whose blood was that?""Ask one more que
|Lea's POV|Today we would return back to Enzo's mansion—where I usually stay. We were all having breakfast when the door flew open and someone walked in.Alessio."The job is done," were the first words he said to Enzo before his eyes fell on me. I ignored him and continued to eat my food, pretending like he wasn't there.He left without saying a word and now he's back, wanting to do what? Hang out and eat ice cream?When our parents died, I spent every single day looking for him but in vain. He was too good at hiding and He didn't bother to look for me, yet I forgave him because I was too darn happy to have found my brother again.It's been what? weeks?...since I last saw him. He didn't even bother to tell me where he was going or for how long."Lea, I'm sorry..." He apologized, knowing that I was mad. I'm bound to be. I was worried—even though I didn't show it but I was.When he said the last words, everybody's heads snapped in his direction like he wasn't used to apologize. I also
I've been training Ryan non-stop for the week. Today is his last day of training because tomorrow he'll be fighting a guy.Ryan was giving his best. He was becoming better and better everyday. I made him wake up at five in the morning and train until eight with breaks in between, of course. Then he would be free until five in the evening then we would resume the training until eight.It was hard but he managed to do it. He made a lot of progress within these days. Nobody asked us any questions because they had no idea what we were doing. Whenever we would go to the gym, it was empty.I also went on three missions this week, with Enzo and the team which consisted of his siblings, Dominic and Dante. Enzo and I barely spoke to each other unless when it's Necessarily.He threw orders and I weirdly started following then without asking questions. I know why though. I dint want to speak to him. I was getting too...comfortable to say the least. I'm not used to getting attached.Sean prolongi
