Sofia's POV:I forced Ace to bring Parker home with us. A Mafia base is no place to keep a child. I came into my room to get changed when I saw a note just laying on Ace's bed but on the pillow I sleep on. I approached it cautiously, because who knows who wrote it.I slowly opened it, hoping for the best. I think I had an idea of who it was from.Dear Sofia,It is your brother Stefano, the new leader of the Diaz Mafia. I'm writing this to thank you for sending our brother's body home to us. I am deeply upset about his death but you had your reasons. I warned him not to do anything stupid and so did the other brothers since we knew this was a war we could not win, even if we tried. Ace's men are simply too skilled and Ace himself, is the epitome of power. Raul broke into your house, with the intention to kill, it only seems fair that you had to defend yourself against him .Raul let the power go to his head. He chose power over family, he chose you over your happiness. If being with Ac

A couple of weeks later, I was sitting in our bedroom.I was bored and Ace was at work. I lay on my bed contemplating something that had been playing on my mind. I wanted a child; I really wanted a child. We had to give Parker to the state and he got put into a foster home. Parker was glued to my hip for the 2 weeks that he was with us and I adored it. It gave me a sense of purpose, a sense of being needed by someone who wasn't Ace.Ace paid the police to put Parker in a good home but that didn't make it any easier to give him up. And ever since, I've wanted a child. But I wasn't sure how to approach Ace about it. I know him better than anyone yet I'm still very scared to tell him I want a child right now, especially since I'm only 17 and he's 18 going 19 next month. Maybe he'll say yeah but make me wait a bit longer.So I phoned the person I trust. Ice.He came up to the room after I called him, telling him to come up to me. "Sofia what is it? I swear to god, if you want me to paint

"Should I go up to him?" I asked Ice with a worried tone. "You heard the man Sofia, he said two hours" Ice voiced warningly before searching through the fridge and cabinets for food. "Ooh cookies" He grinned, grabbing the packet and placing them on the table. As I took a cookie, Ice's phone rang."Yeah, it's Ice, what's up?" He muttered into the phone while picking up a cookie. I watched the colour drain from Ice's face, making him look like a ghost. The cookie dropped from his hand to the floor as he listened to the person on the phone. "You're fucking joking" Ice spat into the phone. His tone changed from shocked to angry in seconds. "Fucking dumbass recruits" Ice hurler his phone across the room in a fit of anger.I was afraid to say anything so I just there, staring at Ice with widened eyes. "What happened?" I finally chirped up after Ice took a few breaths."You know those stupid little recruits we were training" Ice snarled while clenching his fists. "They stole two million wort

I couldn't believe he just made that comment. He does want kids but the question is when ?. I know he isn't ready just yet, but maybe when we're in our 20's.Ace's birthday is coming up soon and he will be 19. He doesn't know that I know, Ice had to tell me. Apparently he doesn't like his birthday being celebrated because each year was just going to be a repeat of the previous one.Honestly, I have no idea what to get him or what to give to him. I know that he doesn't like people so I was thinking about keeping it strictly friends and I'm hoping to get Dante to come from California. Their friendship has really improved since Dante left; maybe Ace realised how much he actually depended on him.He lay his head on my shoulder as I undid his tie. I helped him take off his flashy black suit jacket along with his insanely white shirt. I slowly unbuttoned the shirt while he stared in awe at me. His blue eyes were big and bright even though it was dark in the room and although I could still s

"What should we do then?" I asked Ice, clearly stressing out due to my lack of idea's for Ace's birthday."Ace has always wanted to get away from the Mafia but he's never really had the chance since he's the leader of one so I was thinking that you could take him on a holiday. I'll handle things with the Mafia over here until he gets back or else he can put someone else in charge, I don't mind, either way he'll enjoy being away, especially if it's with you" Ice explained.It wasn't a bad idea. I know that Ace can be very stressed out sometimes due to it so maybe sometime away will let him destress for a little bit."You decide where you guys go but you also have to decide what present you're going to get him because of course, I can't do that for you" he grinned at me before shoving me slightly. "What was that for?" I glared at him. "I don't know, I'm in a playful mood" Ice walked out.Ice was becoming the brother I always wanted. Yeah, he's annoying and really irrational sometimes bu

It was 10:30 pm by the time we reached Mc Donalds and I was like a giddy little kid who had just been given chocolate for the first time."What do you want?" Ace questioned as he rolled down the window and rested his arm against the brim of the car's window frame. "Chicken nuggets" I mumbled while I stared down at my feet. He ordered the food and collected it from the drive thru. I held the food as he pulled into a pretty empty parking lot.Ace got out of the car and gave me a mischievous smile before climbing onto the car bumper. I didn't even question what he was doing, instead I just watched. I saw him walk up his car until I could only hear his heavy footsteps on the car roof.It was the middle of May now so it was decently warm outside; It was probably the reason why he wanted to eat outside at almost 11pm.I opened the car door and stood outside, breathing in the fresh air. I felt like I hadn't been outside in years.I climbed onto the car with the Mc Donald's in one hand and Ac

A week had passed and it was the day of Ace's birthday. He really left for work without telling me that it was his birthday?. I understand that he probably hates his birthday but couldn't he at least of told me?.I began to pack our stuff and Ice came in to help. We talked for awhile after two hours, we finally finished. "Why did that take us so long?" I uttered, lying on top of my suitcase. "I have no idea but I'm never offering to help you again" he replied, flopping on Ace's bed. I giggled at him before also climbing onto the bed.Ice sighed as if he wanted to say something. "What?" I glanced at him worriedly. "I want cookies" he mumbled a smile appearing on his face. "What- I thought something was actually wrong" I playfully punched him. "Ok ok, seriously, I think I'm going to miss you and Ace" he almost whispered as if he was ashamed of saying it. He obviously saw my face light up and blushed slightly as he rolled over so that I couldn't see his face anymore."I'll miss you too I

We had gotten back to the hotel room after swimming for awhile in the pool."I was going to punch the lifeguard" Ace grumbled as he dried his hair with a towel because he had just finished his shower. "Why?" I questioned from the bathroom as I used the hair dryer because I had also had a shower. I turned off the hair dryer and headed from the bed. I sat cross legged with a baggy jumper to keep me warm. "The fucking lifeguard's eyes were glued to your body the entire time, I wanted to scoop them out of his head" he muttered, before coming over and sitting next to me on the bed."Now what?" He asked.I thought to myself for a moment. It's 8 pm, that's late enough."Sit here and wait" I demanded as I walked back into the bathroom.I came out 5 minutes later, wearing a new set of lingerie that I had bought especially for Ace. It black and red with a lace material. I could also show him his birthday present now.Ace's eyes instantly darkened with lust as I opened the bathroom door, reveali

Ace rose from his office chair for the first time in days, and put on his iconic black suit. I've never witnessed a man wear a suit so much.He did his hair and buttoned up his shirt.I stood in-front of him."What are you doing?" I asked, acting like he was crazy."What do you mean, 'what am I doing?'" He widened his eyes at me."Why are you getting all dressed up?" I asked, pretending it was obvious."Because I want to look good," he responded blankly, blinking a few times. He was so clueless, it hurt to watch."Are you joking? Do you not know women at all?" I questioned him, starting to unbutton the top of his shirt. I ruffled his hair and his heartbroken appearance was falling back into place. Ace stared at me, his expression was emotionless. I couldn't help but laugh at him because I knew he was annoyed that undid everything he had done."Tell me you're joking, I'm not going to see her like this." Ace threw a tantrum."Ace, I'm telling you, she'll see it all over your face, that

What the fuck had happened?I hadn't been asleep for that long, had I?Where's Sofia?Where's Ace?Those questions kept playing in my mind, like a record player on repeat, as I drove Dante to the hospital. He was clutching his arm, which was bending the wrong way. I was worried; for him, for us, for everyone. There were cracks in our friendships and they were beginning to show."I can't believe he did this," Dante spat, clearly attempting to distract himself from his arm."What the fuck happened?" I snapped suddenly, which seemed out of the blue for Dante but I still hadn't been told anything about what had happened. I was still in the dark and he wasn't shedding any light on the situation."I was just in the living room, until I heard Sofia and Ace arguing from the kitchen. I hadn't really ever heard them argue before so I stood up from the couch, and all of a sudden, Sofia storms through the living room, not even looking at me. She heads for the hallway and leaves.The girl just lef

I was in my room with Dante, watching a movie. He had expressed that he was beginning to dislike Sofia because she was taking up so much of Ace's attention. More like she wasn't giving Dante any. I blocked out his rambling by focusing on the tv. "Are you even listening?" Dante sneered. "Yea, yea, we don't like Sofia, I get it," I mumbled, stuffing more popcorn into my mouth. "You don't understand." He sighed. "I do," I said, my attention turning back to the tv as a really intense moment happened in the movie. I could hear his voice in the back of my mind, but I wasn't concerned. Dante wouldn't hurt a fly and he certainly wouldn't hurt Sofia. Plus I'm sure Ace would murder him if he tried. I hadn't spoken to Sofia since the day I found her in my room. I hadn't saw her and I didn't know if it would be awkward. I kind of disliked her but it wasn't hatred anymore. I had given up on hating the girl for no reason; but just as I let my vendetta go, Dante begins his. This girl couldn't ca

"What pitstop?", Dante asked, unbuttoning his suit jacket and taking it off. "It's just a quick one", I reassured him. We climbed into the Porsche and drove away from the murder scene, knowing we'd never have to face the consequences of our actions. It was strange; being able to murder someone and not end up in prison. Even if police came knocking on Ace's door, he'd either pay them off or they'd go missing. Ace made his message loud and clear to the government. If they didn't let Ace go about his business, there would be war, and he would win. "Do you ever think about the things we do?" Dante muttered, as if he was thinking out loud. "Sometimes." I replied quickly, watching the trees go by through the window. "Do you think we're bad people, do you think karma exists?", he questioned, his concentration on the road yet his mind was somewhere else entirely. "No, i think we're just morally fucked." I answered, glancing over at him. "Yea, definitely fucked alright. I doubt any of u

"I'm not here to fight you Alex, as much as I'd like to. I've brought you here, to tell you I need Leonardo back. After all he is your brother. Well....half brother" he stated, and I swear I could've been sick. He didn't look anything like me and that's when it hit me. Yes, he didn't look anything like me, but he looked like Avery. The same dark hair and eyes. They couldn't have been brothers. Leonardo couldn't have been more of his brother than me.It couldn't of been possible. He was only his apprentice. Surely he wouldn't leave his son..... oh my god.I was so confused. Leonardo didn't have the same second name as Avery and I; then I felt like someone had stabbed me in the chest, I couldn't breathe. Anderson was my mothers surname. Not my fathers. I never knew it wasn't his, but the look on her face said everything. I never got the name Accardi because he didn't want us to be associated with him. I had lived my whole life never knowing my fathers name. I was going to be violently s

We walked through the empty apartments, choosing to take the stairs over the sketchy elevator. I'd rather not get stuck and die in an old elevator. There was so many flights of stairs and Dante was already sweating by the second one. The paint on the walls had peeled so it was a patchy mess. The stairs themselves were dirty, as if a cleaner had not been here in months. I didn't dare to touch the handrails.As we trudged our way up the stairs, a man who was clearly a drug addict passed by us, throwing us a glare. Dante took it to heart."Why did he look at us like that? I'm offended." He muttered, slightly out of breath."Dante only people that struggle live here, and I'm sorry but we don't struggle anymore because of Ace, you came here in a suit for godsake!" I rambled, which only made Dante more defensive."What's wrong with my suit? I like my suit, thank you very fucking much!" He argued, rolling his eyes like a child."I like the fucking suit Dante, but I'm just saying, these peopl

I had been busy the last few days with mafia related business, so I hadn't been home much; but I was today."Why do you eat so fucking loud?" Ace grumbled to Dante who was eating my cookies in his office. He was slouched in the chair and looked miserable for some reason."What is your problem, bitch?" Dante asked, spewing cookie crumbs everywhere. The palm of my hand slapped my forehead. These two were idiots, I'm living with idiots."Would the both of you just shut up?" I hissed."Fuck you Ice," Dante sneered."Fuck you Dante," I spat, scowling at him."Yeah, fuck you Dante." Ace glared at him."I'm leaving, fuck this," Dante snapped, suddenly becoming angry. I didn't think he was joking, but Ace carried on with the joke."You're a pussy." Ace rolled his eyes."I'm a pussy?" Dante sneered, turning back around and walking towards Ace."You heard me," Ace said, with a big smirk across his face."I'm the fucking pussy," Dante shouted, sounding as if he was in disbelief. "Says the one wh

I hadn't left my room in days, Dante had tried to bribe me out with food but little did he know, I'd rather not eat anyway.I had fallen deep into depression, deeper than I had ever gone before. Breathing was difficult. I stared at the blank wall, trying to process my thoughts. I had nothing left anymore, no revenge, no purpose.Until I heard a knock at my door."Ice, you might want to see this!" I heard Dante say urgently, he was behind the door."I don't" I rejected his proposal."Is this you?" He asked, and it caught my attention. What was he talking about?I climbed to my feet with a groan and unlocked my door, opening it to reveal Dante. He held a golden locket in his hand, which dangled gently."It's a locket?" I rolled my eyes about to shut my door again."No look," he pleaded before I turned back to him.I watched as his chunky finger pressed the smallest button on the side of the locket. It opened to reveal a picture of Avery and I as kids. My eyes widened with disbelief as I

My fist pounded against Ace's door as I stood outside furious."Ace, open the fucking door!" I yelled, Dante still sitting in the car from shock.I saw a silhouette of a figure approaching the door and unlocking it. I swung the door open and it revealed Ace."What the fuck were you thinking?" I shouted, waving my arms in the air with panic. "You could've gotten yourself killed"."That would've been so tragic" Ace smirked, as we made our way down his hallway towards his kitchen."I'm being fucking serious, you could've gotten yourself killed. Look at Dante, I had to drag him from the ball, he's so traumatised. I had to kill some innocent girl and you get to walk away?", my face becoming twisted with disgust. "How is that fair?"."None of it is fair Ice, you fucking idiot, I'm the mafia boss so I decided what I can or can't do. Keep yelling at me, it won't change the outcome!" He sneered back, his pride so unbelievably high."You ruined yourself, do you realise that?" I spat, "ruined".
