Sweet Revenge

CHAPTER 10

Antonio Black •pov

We are now at her funeral. Ivy's funeral, it's been a week and now is the day we will bury her. It's hard, it's so damn hard for us to accept the fact that she's no longer here. She's our light in this dark world. She keeps us happy even though we don't deserve any of it. And now she's gone...forever.

The priest is now standing at the front giving some small speeches. The funeral filled with all Mafias who respected her, she doesn't have a family anymore rather than us. This funeral is for her, she deserves a lot, she deserves the world. But it seems like fate didn't gave her a chance to have it, her life is tragic. I know it because I witnessed it, I know how she cry every night because of her past. Her nightmares, I knew it all.

"Now we are all here to give Ivy Black her final day here in earth. I would give the time for her family to give some speech." The priest said then Khalil goes first. Standing at the front as he held the microphone shakily, trying not to cry.

"Uhhm, Ivy. She's a wonderful woman, I respected her so much. Even though everyone knows that she's a Monster she's still our angel. My angel. She saved me before and I hated myself for not doing anything for her. But I know anywhere she is right now, she's in peace. I hope she's happy now. I love you so much Ivy." Said by Khalil walking towards back in his seat then he sat back again.

Everyone gave speech including Richie, Clark, Anderson and James and some of the Mafias that are close to her. Before me, Matteo stood at the front as he started his speech. "Ivy Black, Muffin, My muffin I still can remember how we met. We were kids when I met her at the park. I really thought that's our first and last meeting but fate gave us a chance to meet again. But after all, fate hate me too much that they took a precious woman like her. I love you Ivy." Said Matteo, I knew it from the start that he likes Ivy but I ain't sure if she does also. But when I saw them sleeping, I felt something unfamiliar. I felt someone stab me, more painful than a true stab of a sharp knife. After his speech I am now the last one.

"Ivy Black, my friend and also my love one. I love her so much more than a bestfriend. I hate myself for not telling her that. I hate myself for not saving her. But after all, everything she wanted is now done. Everything is worth the sacrifices she has done did, Leo King is already dead. We will always remember her. Long life for Black Empire!" I said shouting the last sentence as I raised my hands.

"Long life for Black Empire!" They all shouted. And now it's time. Getting the vase where she's now at, only her ashes. Her valuable stuffs is the one to get buried. Since she died from the explosion as also, cremation is the only way we can cherish her even though she's not here anymore.

Holding her as we go back to the house. I enter the house and I gently put her at the shelf where her ginormous picture is hanging, we wouldn't forget her, never. This spot will always remind us of her. Ivy Black, the Mafia Queen.

~~~

It's been a month since she's gone, I always go to her room every night and go to her balcony where we always stare at the moon and stars while we both laugh at our own jokes. How I love to see her smiles and hear her giggles once again. I release a heavy sigh as I run my hand through my hair. I am now the one who holds the Black Empire, I am now the Mafia King. But how could I be happy if there's no one to be my queen. I am just doing it for her since the thing she says will always be in me. "Antonio would be the one will continue this Mafia." She trusted me so much just to give me everything she worked hard for, and I promised that I'll do my best just to give Black Empire a leadership it deserves.

Though to be honest I can't, Ivy is one in a million. There's no more Ivy in this world, she's the best leader I know and I can't be like her. I doubt myself for something that I didn't know how she had done, that if I mess up she will surely not be happy for trusting me on this. But since Matteo and the boys are there with me, everything is pretty handled.

"Sir someone wanted to talk with you." A guard came.

"Who? I said don't disturb me right?" I said raising my voice, I already knew why Ivy got anger issues and I think I'm having it too.

"It's about Ms. Ivy Black, he said." The guard said as I furrow my brows. About Ivy? I nod my head as a signal to him to come in. An old man almost in his 40's, his hair are almost bald. Gesturing him to sit down as he did so.

"So why are you here? And what is it about Ivy?" I said as calmly as I could but failed.

"Uhhmm, I am Ms. Ivy Black's investigator." He started. I don't remember hiring someone to investigate something.

But if Ivy is the one who gets an investigator before, I am supposed to be the one who will know it first. But no, I don't know a single damn thing.

"I am Ronaldo Gutierrez. She hired me for how many months now, she asked me to find the one who killed her parents and know there's information. But sadly she died and she didn't have to know the information I get. I am sorry since it took me a lot of time to. So maybe I think you wanted the information." He said giving me a folder.

"You can go now." I said as he quickly leaves the room. Opening the folder and I saw some information.

Aurora belle McKay a.k.a Ivy Black

Birth date: August 17, 1996

Ethnicity: American-Filipino

Gender: Female

George Anderson McKay [Father]
Dead
Isabella Mae Mckay [Mother]
Dead

I read the whole folder, the first pages is filled by her true identity. Ivy Black is Aurora Belle Mckay, she has a beautiful name, it's so innocent. Then something came, the murderer who killed her parents, her biological parents. Rather than getting revenge on the Kings, this is the first reason why she came here, in the mafia. To get revenge for her parents who got murdered. And since that she's no longer here, I'll be the one who will kill them for her.

For my Ivy...

For my Aurora.
