i nodded my head towards the paper work that was placed on the table. michel picked it up before walking away and out my office. i laid back on my chair closing my eyes shut slowly

taking over miles mafia was hard work

i don't know how he was able to do all this, he really worded hard and now it's my turn

but isn't that what we both wanted in the beginning? we always wanted to run a mafia together but jack took the place making both me and miles change lifestyle and run away together before he slowly started going back to being part of the mafia then taking over it and now it's mines

i immediately opened my eyes once i felt someone in front of me, and as i thought there was

dylan sat on the chair in front of me as he looked around the office then back at me. he mumbled something under his breath i couldn't hear

"how can i help you?" i asked him before signing a paper and looking up at him once in a while

"are you aware of having to assigned us our missions?" dylan said making me narrowed my eyes and look up at him

"i'm fully aware, i didn't do it for a reason. thought you were able to tell" i said going back to signing more papers and reading over people notes and missions "here" i handed dylan a paper with missions due tomorrow "you should get started on that" i pointed at the paper he hold as he read over it

"ofc ms.gracia" dylan said as he got up with a smirked, i shot my head up

i just took a deep breath

"you can go now" i said. he nodded walking out. i sigh, are people still gonna be calling me that? i looked at the picture frame that sat on my desk, me and miles when we were actually in love, my head on his shoulders

i wanted to destroy it

i flipped over the picture frame so it wasn't facing me

i started typing something on my computer before there was a knock on my door. i groaned throwing my head back before closing my computer

"i'm busy" i said. i wasn't lying, i had work to do and it was getting me tired by now.

"ma'am" i heard one my guard say from the other side of the door. i didn't want to deal with what they were gonna tell me, but that's what i have to do

"what is it? i'm pretty busy ove-" he didn't let me finish

"polibio is downstairs" the guard said making me stand up and walk over to the door and open it. i immediately slapped the guard across the face

"why the fuck did you let him in?" i questioned making the guard think of an answer

"i don't know what i was thinking" he said before stepping aside as i walked towards the stairs. i didn't want to see mattia especially not now. i walked downstairs and looked around the living room

then i saw him

his back towards me as he sat on the couch

i slowly made my way to where he was at, i crossed my arms up to my chest right when he looked towards me and stood up

"did i invite you to come over?" i asked narrowing my eyes

"don't talk to me like that" he said before taking his seat again. i didn't want to talk to him so i didn't take a seat in the couch, i just looked straight at him. he looked up at me "i didn't come here to argue" he answered

"then what do you want?" i asked bitting my bottom lip as he examined me slowly

"i came to pay my respects towards" he stopped himself before chuckling and talking again "your husband" he said. i scoffed before actually laughing

"you never liked miles. what's the real reason?" i asked

mattia nodded looking down at the floor. he knew that wasn't the real reason. somehow he made it seem believable, like he really came to pay his respect for miles. but why now? why days later?

"i need you" he mumbled as i tried to fight a smile. but i didn't need him, right?

"that's all?" i said mocking the same shit he said to me when i tried to talk to him and make things right but he ended up breaking me

"take me back. please. i didn't realized what i lost until now. i can't live without chasing after you or being with you" mattia said getting up and walking up to me "i lied ok. i lied about everything, that i didn't want you, that i used you to kill miles. i fucking lied" he said shaking his head "i'm sorry" he mumbled

i looked at mattia

"i'm sorry too." i said as mattia grew a smile but quickly disappeared once he saw michel approaching us

"what do we have here?" michel asked narrowing his eyes looking from me to mattia and back at me "so you killed my brother so that you could go back to mattia? you really are selfish" michel said shaking his head and giving mattia a dirty look

mattia eyes went back to me in shock

"you killed miles?" mattia said as i shook my head

"stop acting like you guys didn't plan this shit out" michel said laughing and throwing his hands up in the air and walking away, i then noticed he had suitcases with him "i'll be moving away from here" michel said looking around the house "but i'll be back for both of you guys, mark my words" michel said and with that he was out the house

i looked back at mattia

"how do you deal with him?" mattia said to me as i shrugged "i should get going" mattia said after a minute passed of silence

i smiled at him before my eyes catch something on the stairs, dylan? i narrowed my eyes but the figure disappeared

it was probably me seeing things
