^^^^ Burkley's old rusty car that he used^^^^


Esmerelda- Antoinette's POV:

"Well Well Well. If it isn't the Sicilian Mafia Queen and the Italian Mafia Queen." Kayden wasn't lying. Orabella was the queen of the Sicilian Mafia making Alessandro their heir and Alessandra the mafia princess of the Sicilian mafia. How could my two best friends, who were also my niece and nephew, keep such a big secret from me. At least to say I am furious. My brothers didn't even think it was important to tell me they were the Italian Mafia. Lorenzo being the leader. When I finally started trusting these people they broke my trust. Antonio probably doesn't even know he is the heir of the Italian Mafia. My own father hid this from me. I am debating whether or not to save these liars from the hands of the Irish Mafia's second in command. Alexander, Sylvester, and Ryder-Blake probably don't even know the second in command of the Irish Mafia was still alive. I looked to Kayden who was on my side giving me signals of whether or not he should shoot the enemies in the head. I shook my head no. We were outnumbered. The only way we have a chance of surviving is if I give something more valuable to the Enemies. Me. I was the only thing more valuable and I'm sure the Irish knew that.

"Kayden you are going to take Victoria and Orabella to safety. Use the font exit. Victoria and Orabella are in the Mafia and know how to fight, you three will be able to take out the Irish in a single blow." I whisper to him.

"Well, what about you. Even if I have met you I think it would be a little irresponsible of me to leave you here in the hands of these dangerous men. I barely think your yo-yo is gonna do you any good this time." he whispered back. I mean his statements are not wrong but it's better to lose one life than many.

"Just trust me. I'm gonna give you the signal when you have to take Victoria and Orabella and destroy this place. Understand?" I ask him. He hesitates but nonetheless, he nods. My brothers and the Sicilian mafia probably know about this mission and expect that Victoria and Orabella are not in trouble. Clearly, they have miscalculated exactly how many people would be ready to take their girls down. I was about to reveal myself but waited 10 seconds to hear more of the conversation between the enemies and the queens of the mafias.

"It's over Burkley. We know you're the one stealing the Italian and Sicilian Mafia's data." Orabella said venomously. Burkely so that was the Irish Mafia's second in command's name. I heard a chuckle come from Burkley.

"Oh, how you are the wrong b*tch. You are outnumbered. I have men up top on the ground floor prepared to attack anytime. 10 men surrounding you and 20 people guarding the area. You really think you can beat me." Burkley says with evil humor. Victoria spits in his face. Dang Victoria!

"How dare you dirty wh*ore. Men shoot them." Burkley ordered. Before hell would break loose and any bullets could be fired I revealed myself.

"Stop right there. Leave my sister and sister-in-law alone." I say with determination. He chuckles.

"Oh wow, who do we have here? Midget." He says. He probably doesn't even know who I am. Luckily my identity won't be revealed then.

"The name Esmerelda. Aren't you and the rest of the Irish dead? Last time I checked you were bombed. It was all over the news. I'm pretty sure you best buddy the Irish leader toast and dead." I say with a smirk.

"Glad to see you've done your homework little girl. Oh, and I am no longer the Irish second in command as you think. This is my own gang. I started it when I found out our good-for-nothing Mafia leader died as well as his men in the bombing. Don't even associate me with that Useless b*stard." He spits in my face. All the guns were pointing at me. Everybody was so busy looking at me that it was the perfect distraction. I send a small hand signal to Kayden to get the girls from the back and destroy this place. From the corner of my eye, I see Kayden's movements. I sigh in relief knowing he got the signal. Just a little more distraction and they will be safe. Hopefully, I won't die in the process.

"Look. Why have some bloodshed when we can discuss this like normal civilized people?" I say hoping to calm everybody's nerves.

"Ha. Civilized people. I don't know if you know this little girl but in the mafia, civilization does not exist. It's either you live or you die. Now if you'll excuse me with your pathetic attempt of stopping me I need to go back to killing those mafia wh*res." He said. He turned to look where Orabella and Victoria were but they were gone. He turned to me and his eyes turned dark.

"You dumb little sl*t. How dare you." He bites. He comes closer to me step by step. All the guns were ready to pull the trigger on me. Their attention was grabbed when we heard guns upstairs. Hopefully, the grunts were coming from the enemy and not Kayden, Orabella, and Victoria. I prayed for them.

"Get them!" Burkley yelled at his men. They immediately went to rush but everybody stopped when they witnessed the impossible. A medium-sized heavy metal cylinder was dropped in our room. I saw the tool had a symbol of Kayden's gang on it. Black venom. I sighed in relief knowing that Kayden was following what I told him to destroy this place. He dropped a grenade bomb that would burst in less than 30 seconds. I smirked. I looked at Burkley. Even if I knew I was going to die. I would die as a hero.

"You b*tch. I refuse to die. You're coming with me." He said angrily. Before I could get out of his grasps he took his strong tattooed thick arms and wrapped them around me. He covered my mouth. I struggled to escape his grasp. I knew his grip on me was like a vice. I wouldn't be able to do anything. I tried kicking him in the shins but he saw it coming and slapped me in the face instead. Memories of my step-father clouded my mind. I started breathing heavily and knew I was having a panic attack. I wouldn't be able to stop him. My panic attack was making me weak. Burkley took me and dragged me outside of the premises. I looked back to see the casino. I stared at it for five more seconds before it erupted in flames. The casino was no more and the people inside as well. I heard the familiar roaring of Kayden's engine. It triggered me to escape my panic attack. My breath had calmed down. I smiled to myself knowing that Orababella, Victoria, and Kayden had escaped.

I was brought out of thought when Burkley opened an old rusty car and shoved me painfully inside the back seat. I bumped my head with full force on the opposite door. I cried in pain. Burkley came and slapped me again.

"Make a noise and I will kill you." He threatened before taking his gun out. He cocked the trigger and shot me on the leg. I cried profusely. I had never been shot before. I can cross that off my non-existent bucket list. I cradled myself in the corner trying to apply pressure to the gun wound. My frail body couldn't give up on me. I wouldn't let it. I didn't die in the bombing. Maybe if I try a little harder I might not die at the hands of my enemy. I refuse to allow Burkley to kill me. My wound wasn't oozing blood too much. The bullet was still in my body, probably stuck between my bleeding arteries. Burkley started his rusty car and drove off far from the city. I prayed to God hoping someone would find me. I just chuckled to myself knowing no one would find me. Victoria and Orabella will probably tell my brothers but they won't be able to find me. We would be far from the burnt casino so there would be no evidence as to where I might be. They know that Burkley was an ex-member of the Irish Mafia but they probably don't know the fact that he started his own gang. Victoria, Orabella, and Kayden left long before that. Tears invaded my eyes as the idea of death was coming closer than ever. If I wanted to survive I would need to make sure I escaped and make sure Burkley and his gang died. Burkley has information on the Italians and Sicilians. That is dangerous information. If I wanted to escape I would have to get the flash drives with the mafia information, I am assuming at this point the info is probably on a flash drive. I would then have to kill Burkley and his gang. I refuse to let the enemy win. This is what my godfather trained me for.
