Getting inside the house as I storm into the basement and go to the my favorite room. Some men are there, picking a gun that I want aiming it at the circle board. Shooting it nonstop, anger rushing through my blood. Why the fuck did I shoot him? What if he dies, what if- I was cut off when I heard my phone rings getting it as the sound of Richie's voice filled my ears. "He's fine now, we're at the fifth floor." I ended the call sliding back my phone and rushing to the fifth floor. Many left and right turns I make until I reach the room.

"Leave us." I said as they all obey and get out of the room. I make my way towards him as he just casually look at me. Taking my seat at the couch beside him. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to shoot you Matteo." I said sincerely about what I did. He's my long lost childhood best friend

My 6 years old self at the park playing alone as my parents watch me. Laughters and giggle filled the whole park. I am just casually running around when I bump into a wall. No, a person. A kid, I say sorry as he help me get up. "Thank you." I murmur walking towards the bench as I sit followed by him.

"What's your name?" I ask, he holds a muffin eating it.

"Matteo." He said, going back to his muffin and eating it again.

"Want some?" He asked as I nod in response, giving me some of his muffin. It's so delicious. We talk and play the whole time, but suddenly the time that we needed to go home. We bid our goodbyes as I walk towards my parents. "Byeeee muffin!!!" I shouted as he turn around and look at me smiling. "Goodbye muffin!!!" He shouted back.

Remembering the time we first and last met makes me smile. "I am fine Aur-." I cut him off, I don't wanna hear what he was going to say. "Ivy Black is my name." I said, he looks so confused. His look makes me laugh for a sec, but fear in his face was visible.

"You're Ivy Black? The Mafia Queen? Black Empire?" He asks making me laugh.

"Yes. Now, take some rest, I'm not done with you yet." I said leaving the room without sparing a glance on him.

Going to the basement at the gym where they're all training. Antonio, Khalil, Clark and Richie. Their gaze shot at me. Antonio walking towards me. "So he's your long lost friend?" He asked as I nod. I go to my room quickly just to change into my proper attire since I needed some work out, I wear a sports bra with matching leggings going back to the gym where they're all still doing their business.

Starting to warm up, I start some stretching then start my workout. I spent working out until I am completely alone at the gym, I didn't even know what time is it now. I feel sore, I got up and go to my room taking a quick shower and change into my sweatpants and tank top.

It's time for dinner I go downstairs, they're still in their usual seats but the difference is beside me is now Antonio and Matteo while beside Antonio is Richie, Clark and Khalil. And beside Matteo is this bastard Anderson and James and some of my men who also live at this house.

My house is quite big, it looks like a castle to be honest. There are plenty of rooms and many more, so some of my men are free to live here with me. I took my seat as usual at the top of the table, they all bow in respect. Dinner is served and we all eat peacefully, though I still see that they're all giving each other death glare but I didn't give it any attention since I am enjoying my delicious food.

Deciding to break the intense silence I decided to speak. "Matteo, who ask you to steal our drugs? Where is it?" I ask looking at him as he does the same.

"It's uhmm K-king, Leo King. They threatened us that they'll make us suffer nor make our gang suffer." He said seeing being anxious. Antonio is right, he is always right.

"I'm right." Antonio said while poking his food.

"Yes, you are."

"Now I'll give you an option Matteo. First is to tell every single thing you know and then be part of us, maybe I can give you more power than you have. Or it's the other way around, you all will die in the most painful way." I said taking a sip from my glass. There are no friends in this world, the most important thing is loyalty. If you do something, make sure you wouldn't regret it. I glance to the three men as they all look at me in horror.

"First option." Matteo and James said in unison.

"Second option." Anderson spoke  The bravery he has to die, he isn't scared I see.

"Oww little boy, you wouldn't like it if I kill you in the most painful way I know." I said shooting death glares at him. If glares could kill maybe he's six feet underground.

"Anderson." Matteo said his gaze not leaving him, they stare at each other for ten seconds like they're having a conversation.

"Okay, it's the option 1." Anderson said, finally he got brains now. This thing would benefit the both of us.  But we all know that they need me more than I do. But still, maybe I am just doing this for Matteo.

"And you little boy, show some respect to me. I can kill you with no hesitation, remember that. You all are now working for me so every step you make, make sure I know it. Every wrong move you make, there's consequences ahead. So if you either want it or not, you will obey everything I say. At least you don't wanna die, right?" I said my voice held authority, as they all nod in response.

We continue eating. When we are done I go straight to my office while they all follow me.

I take a sit to my chair. "Take a sit." I said as they sat on the couch.
Getting the paper from the cabinet getting a pen then signing it.

"Here's the proof that you three are now working for me. 4 of my men are the witnesses." I said as the three sign to the paper, getting the paper and putting it back to where I get it. "Clark, Khalil and Richie, you can leave now. Antonio stay." I said as they all obey and leave the room.

"I know you three don't know me so maybe I should tell you who am I. I am Ivy Black, I am the Leader of Black Empire. All I wanna do is put Kings at hell and I need your cooperation to achieve that. But before that there were things I wanted to remind you all. First is I hate wasting time, my time is too damn precious to be wasted so if I ask something do, do it at time or else you'll come to an consequences.

Second is I hate being disrespected, I am a lady and a true man knows how to respect a lady. Rather than being a lady, I am the Leader, although I know you all are thinking why does a woman have the balls to be a Leader, it's because 'There's more powerful than a rusty dusty man, is a women who want to get revenge'. A Sweet Revenge.

Lastly, do what I said, I don't like being disobey. Antonio is my right hand, he's also my bestfriend so might as well respect him." I said as they all listen carefully to every word I say while Antonio sat at my chair  when I got up from my sit.

"Loyalty, that's the most important thing. Since today you all are working for me, your loyalty is mine. Only mine. Your stuffs will  be here tomorrow, so you can use some of my men's stuff as for now. Your men's Matteo Gambino is now handled by me since you sign that contract, they all will come here as well tomorrow. I hope you all get along." I said, as they all nod in agreement.

"Antonio please bring them to their own room." I said as he nod. I get out of my office and go straight to my room which is just beside it.

Going straight to my bed I felt my eyes falling in a deep slumber.
