Don't Stand A Chance

Chapter 7

I grunted as my first hit the punching bag through my gloves. I was so frustrated about Alexander how he had the audacity to first steal from us then THEN try and kill me. We've been trying to kill each other for like two years now but we were always unsuccessful with each other. We've even almost been to war with each other but it's always the wrong time and our alliances usually talk us out of it. Our alliances as we call them are the leaders of the smaller mafias that we have a truce with but control. So there basically little bases and things like that gangs you could call them, not big enough to be called a mafia from there base but still apart of one. Everything that happens with them come straight to me and my father. Although our mafia is big and we have all the recourse to go to war we still need there agreement in case they disagree and we cause another war.

"Aurora stop"I heard Davina say softly
"why should I huh"I said hitting the bag over and over again
"Because you've been doing it all morning and I can tell your exhausted"she said walking closer to me
"I don't have time to rest when we go to this ball tomorrow I will be ready to fight Alexander and end this"I said kicking the bag causing the chains to rattle and it to fall to the ground
"fuck"I said looking at the broken bag on the floor
I went and sat down next to Davina on the bench putting my head in my hands while she rubbed my back.
"I know how you feel i'm pissed to but we need to give it time talk to him tomorrow at the ball see what he wants"Davina said as I lifted my head looking at the wall directly in front of me
"I know what he wants"I said turning my head and looking at her
"he wants my mafia and i'll die before I give it up"I said grabbing my towel and water bottle standing up and walking out

I got out the shower thankful for the warm water soothing my aching muscles and mind. I fell on the bed letting my body soak into the mattress till I heard a knock at my door
"come in"I yelled still on my bed
Davina walked in after closing my door.
"I come in peace"she said walking towards me with her hands up and I just smiled at her
"i'm sorry for before i'm just mad that I didn't suspect Alexander"I said closing my eyes on the bed
"how could you have known"she said walking over and sitting on my bed next to me
"it just it doesn't seem like an Alexander move yes we've been after each other for a while but he always come to me directly he never never even once has gotten someone else to do it it's not adding up"I said opening my eyes to look at her
"maybe he's just getting desperate"she said shrugging to which I nodded slightly. We ended up just watching a movie and talking over tomorrow and how we hope it'll go. It got late fast and the last thing we needed was to be tired tomorrow so we went to sleep in my room.
