- Roxanne's POV -

It was the next day. I was to meet up with Mattheo at the base to talk about his plan to stop the alliance between both of our mafias from happening. We both didn't want it to happen. At least I didn't because I was going to be forced to marry Taylor, and I rather be killed than marry him.

When I got to the base I went to Mattheo's office. I knocked on his door.

"Come in" I heard him say as I opened the door and walked in closing it behind me.

"Take a seat," he says as I do so. He looked like he was busy looking at some documents.

"So, what are you working on?" I asked as he looks up at me from what he was doing.

"Just finishing up something for our supplement, but I'm almost done," he said. I nodded. I don't know if it was me but ever since we said the three words it has been kind of off and wowed lately if you know what I mean.

"The plan is to make a deal with Russians," He says as I look up at him. The Russians were crazy.

"Why the hell would we make a deal with the Russians when there trying to kill us?" I asked him.

"That's the thing. I'm going to make them a deal they can't refuse." He says leaning back in his chair.

"And what is that?" I asked kind of concerned at what he was going to do. But I was willing to do anything other than marrying.

"Kill Taylor," Mattheo says as I look at him as if he was crazy.

"Mattheo, you're not going to kill your brother are you crazy!" I whisper yelled at him. Although I hated him giving him to the Russians so that they can kill him was a horrible idea.

"Why not, do you want to marry him?" He said raising a brow at me as I scoffed.

"Of course I don't but this can all go very wrong and more people can get hurt," I say leaning up in my chair.

"I told you it was dangerous and you agreed," he said leaning up in his chair so he could be closer to me.

I knew he hated his brother but killing him was another level of hate. I looked into his green eyes as they darkened.

"Fine." I agreed as he smirked at my reply.

"We'll be meeting up at their base in two days," he said as I nodded. I had a bad feeling about this but maybe this way we could also find out who the mole was.

After the so call 'meeting', I decided to take Camila out just to hang out. I feel like we've been so caught up with the Russians and now stopping the alliance from happening that I haven't really had time for Camila.

Every once in and while we'd talk about how we wished to live a normal life just for one day. We never had the chance to experience it since we grew up in this whole Mafia thing.

I mean don't get wrong I love it, because without it I don't know what I would be. But It would be nice to know how it feels.

Before I could leave the base I heard someone call my name. I turned around to see Taylor with a smile on his face walking towards me. I roll my eyes and cross my arms.

"What do you want?" I say in a rude way as his smile quickly faded.

"Look I know we don't know each other and our fathers are planning for us to get married in a couple of months but I really want to get to know you better." He says rubbing the back of his neck and looking down in another direction.

I look over behind him to see Mattheo standing right outside of his office looking straight at me. I could tell he was pissed.

"Roxanne?" Taylor says as I look back at him. For a moment I felt bad for Taylor. He seemed like a great guy but he kind of lost his chance when he lied to me about Mattheo.

"Look Taylor, I have somewhere to be. Maybe we can talk about this another time." I say putting my hand on his shoulder glancing over at Mattheo as he was still staring.

"Oh, that's ok-" He says before I interrupted him.

"Goodbye now," I say with a fake smile and walk away. I had a feeling this whole plan wasn't good to end up well, and my gut is always right.

Camila and I decided we'd go watch a movie at the movie theaters. She has been non-stop talking about a movie called 'Cruella'.

We drove to the movies in my car. When we got there we bought some candy, popcorn, and drinks before the movie started.

After we got our food we went to the theater room and sat in our seats. We got there just in time as the beginning started to play.

Halfway through the movie, there was a group of teenagers behind us who wouldn't stop talking and kicking my seat. I tried to stay calm knowing that if I got from my chair it would a whole show.

"Can you move your big head I can't see" One guy said behind me.

"Fottuti adolescenti. That's it!" I say getting out of my chair and turning around giving all of them a dead in the eyes look.

(Translation: Fucking teenagers)

"Roxanne!" I heard Camila whisper yell at me as Ignored it. I gave these dumb asses a chance but they ruined it.

"If one of you say another word or just even a noise I will kill all of you in a matter of seconds," I say pointing at all of them.

They froze in their seats looking at me in fear abs shock. I smirk and go back to my seat I look over next to me to see a pretty mad Camila.

"You really had to, didn't you," she said shoving the bucket of popcorn onto me and leaving the room.

"Camila...wait," I say getting up from my chair going after her. This is what I mean, no matter how much I try to be normal in the world I live in I cant. It's just not for me.

Author note: what do you guys think about the plan?

I think things are about to get really messy. In many different ways.
