The Mafia's Beloved Temptress

After that night, things haven't necessarily been the same. Of course Denzel was proud of what I've done, but I wasn't sharing his energy.

Getting up from bed, I walk down the stairs to go and get some breakfast. Denzel has been avoiding me for the last 3 days, and too be honest I've never been happier.

"Morning April." I greet out maid with a smile and sit on one of the chairs of the dining table.

"Morning sweetheart, how did you sleep?" She asked with a smile.

"It was okay." I say back.

She brings a plate of blueberry pancakes with syrup. Without hesitation I dig in savouring the lovely food.

" Have you seen Denzel?." I ask April in hopes for an answer.

"No, darling I haven't seen him all day." She says with a look of pity.

I know that look, she gave it to me a lot when I would go to her to help with my wounds I got from Denzel.

She is like a mother to me, she was always there when Denzel would come back angry about something and would take it out on me. But ever since he came up with the plan he hasn't laid a hand on me, and I'm beyond grateful. His reasons are that the bruises would make it harder to attract the 'target'.

Feeling my phone vibrate in my pyjama pocket. Seeing the contact name saying 'Anni', my sister. I quickly answer the call.

"Hey Anni. How have you been?" I say nervously.

"How have I been? I haven't heard from you in 3 weeks. What happened?" She yells through the phone. I have nothing to say, I obviously can't just tell her ' oh Denzel doesn't like me having contact with people without his permission or just in general, heck even this call could get me in deep shit.

"I'm sorry, Iv been really busy with work, but I'll try to call more okay?" I say with hope she will let it slide. "No, not this time, I think I deserve to at least see you once. You know I haven't even seen you since you wedding, are you avoiding me?" Anni asks and I can hear she is close to crying, which makes me tear up because I miss her so much as well.

"No, please don't do this Anni, you know I love you. It's just that iv never had time to meet up you know?" I start sniffling trying not to cry.

"I know, I know. But what I want you to know if that if you ever need anything, and I mean ever Aliyah, please don't hesitate to come to me because I'll always be here to help you." I can hear she's already started crying, which makes me breakdown even more.

"Yes, of course I know. Thank you." I say with a hushed tone.

"I have to go now. Bye Aliyah, please call me tomorrow." She says

"Yes, of course I will. Bye, love you too Anni." I hear the phone call drop. I already know Iv made a promise I've already broken since I can only call her so much before Denzel figures out Iv been keeping contact with my family.

Getting up from the table I go up stairs to go and take a shower.

Stripping off my pyjamas I make my way to the bathroom to take a long needed shower.

After doing all my bathroom duties I head for my walk in closet and pick out simple baggy hoodie and biker shorts since I don't plan on going anywhere.

Thinking back to the call I had with Anni breaks my heart. We were so close when we where younger. She would always try to protect me as, the oldest sister, from all the gang related stuff. Since we both knew our father was disappointed that he ended up with two girls instead of boys. On top of that, our mother has never really been there since she always lived in her own world of trauma due to all the guns and blood shed. Father had always called her weak, and I guess her lack of ability to raise her own children proves him right.

But my sister always knew she never wanted to end up involved in gangs. So she went off to college to live the most normal life she could. With her gone, I was some what left defenceless from the world of the mafia. So my father took it upon him to teach me as much as a female would know. That's where my training started. I'd train for hours on end, day by day.

That's when I grew a slight resentment for my eldest sister for leaving me there with no one to help me, not even my own mother.

When I turned 19 that's when my father introduced me to Denzel Simmons. My 'future husband' he'd always say. During our period of 'dating', which was actually his father and my father signing a deal and a treaty, Denzel seemed like the nicest man a girl would ever want, back then he was 22. He would treat me well and made life seem better than I had thought.

But it turns out it was much worse. He started to care less and shout more. But I was a nieve girl back then, so blamed it on his stress from the gang. Once his father died and he took over the Black Double Dagger gang, he became ruthless. He would beat, slap, cut and burn me every chance he got.

That's when I was isolated from meeting with my family, so that they wouldn't see what he does to me.

Then one day he came up his brilliant plan to be the best Mafia gang leader in America.

There's a list of 13 best gangs in America, and the Black Double Dagger gang is 10th on that list. That on its own drove Denzel mad, so he came up with the idea to kill the 9 gang leaders above him so he can rule as the best.

My involvement in this plan is simple, I'm basically the killer. He sets them up at a public place, pretending to need to make a deal of some sort. I then come in look as hot as humanly possible, to attract the leader. Once Iv got their attention. Denzel gets up to go to the restroom. That's where I make my move to go and seduce them to taking me home. Once we get there I stall and find the right moment to kill them, the I just pull the trigger. Just as my father taught me.

This plan both ruined and saved my life. It's has been amazing knowing that Denzel can't hurt me because I'm a prized possession in this sick game of his. But having to kill on cue, makes me slowly but surely more and more lifeless on the inside.

But I've been told you can only have one, not both.

Either a good husband or a good leader

But the gang got a good leader and I got a bad husband.
