The De Niro's Mafia Queen

'Shhh...be quiet or you'll wake her up'. What the fuck? I roll in my sleep because of the disturbance. I hope these intruders know that I have a knife under my pillow. The noises fall to a cease so I attempt to fall back asleep. Suddenly I feel ice-cold water pour on me. I pull my knife out from under my pillow and hold it up.

'What the fuck sis. Why do you have that thing'. My eyesight finally clears and I see Axel and a random chick in my room.

'For this exact reason мудак. Why are you here and who is this сука', I say with my knife pointed at the mystery girl.
[Asshole]
[Bitch]

'Babe, are you going to let her talk to me like that. Do something', she says in a squeaky high pitched voice. I almost had to cover my ears.

'Brianna, don't worry. She won't harm you', Axel defends her. This Brianna girl is practically clinging to Axel's arm.

'отвали', I saw while shooing them with my hand.
[Piss off]

They eventually leave and I force myself to get ready for the day. I do my morning routine and get dressed for the day. I chose a white dress shirt, with a cream coloured sweater vest. I put a striped blazer on top and put my Prada boots on.

I make my way downstairs and the first thing I see is an angry Brianna.

'What the fuck is that bitch doing in our house', she screams in that annoyingly high voice.

'She's our sister, Brianna. We're not going to kick her out and this is the De Niro family's house. You are not a De Niro', I hear Lucian say from somewhere in the kitchen.

I walk down the rest of the stairs so I'm in their view. What catches my eye is Brianna's outfit. It's a hot pink dress that I can help but cringe at.

'If you're going to talk about me at least be a little quieter, darling', I say, my Russian accent very evident.

'Don't talk to me like that you Russian whore', she screeches.

I swiftly make my way to her and pin her to the wall with my knife to her neck.

'I don't appreciate being called a whore. Second, who do you think you are to talk to me like that. Don't think that because you've known these boys longer that you're better than me. You shouldn't be worried about me. You should be worried about your bleached head. God forbid you think it looks good. Oh, and please that that horrible dress off. It's hurting my eyes'. With that, I walk to the refrigerator to grab some water. When I get the water bottle and turn around, all eyes are on me.

The brothers look confused while bleach head looks like she shit her pants.

'What', I ask while innocently batting my eyelashes.

'Raven, come with us. Brianna, leave', Vincenzo says.

I follow them to Vince's office and we enter. I take a look around in case I see something that may be important.

'Raven, I know what I'm about to say may sound crazy and it may change your perception of us. Just please don't hate us. As you know we are a very famous family. You do not know what we do for a living but I will tell you since you deserve to know. We are in the Mafia'. There is a pause after he announces this. I think of a way to react shockingly to this.

'What', I say with a wobbly voice.

'Please don't freak out. We aren't going to harm you, princess. Never', Axel says while putting a hand on my shoulder.

'We are in the Italian Mafia. Our family going generations down was in this Mafia', Vincenzo explains and I just play along.

'Well, what is it like being in a Mafia', I question.

'It's not fun. You have loads of responsibility and no time to play around. It's dangerous and we just don't want to drag you into it'.

'Are you guys in any danger', I ask and pretend like I care for their safety.

'Yes, princess. We are in trouble with the Russians. We have been at war for years and years. We are trying to get more men to stop the war and we are constantly trying to find new ways to be one step ahead', Xavier answers after being silent the whole time.

After our 'Family' conversation I tell them I'm going out. They were reluctant to let me leave but I finally managed to convince them. I hop in my black Mercedes and drive to the warehouse.

I arrive at the warehouse and walk straight inside. I make a beeline to Mr. Corbin's office.

'Hello, my child', Mr. Corbin says when I enter. He's smoking a cigar and looks relaxed as ever.

'Hi, Mr. Corbin. I really fucking regret doing this. These boys are making my a life living hell', I say with a groan as I sit down in the chair.

'Suck it up. You got any information for me', he says disregarding my complaints.

'No, absolutely nothing. They don't talk. All they said was that they're finding more men and trying to be one step ahead. They didn't say how though'.

'That's not good', he says then puts the cigar back in his mouth.

'Yea no shit'.

I leave the warehouse to head back home. I missed lunch but that's fine, Mr. Corbin gave me some candy.

I park in the garage and get out the car. I walk inside and all the boys are in the living room. I see 5 boys but if I remember correctly, I only have 4 brothers. They all look at me and I lock eyes with the new boy.

'Hey, sis. This is our friend Alessandro'.
