La Diabla (18+)

Lies

~Alejandro~

Cecelia fucking Rose. The perfect woman who would come into my life and fuck it up. The woman who I became obsessed with. The sweetest addiction anyone can crave. Her smell, her voice, her presence, her fucking existence is addictive. It's been only a few weeks and she had me wrapped around her pretty little finger.

The funny part is that she had no idea. She can tell me to get on my knees and I will, she can tell me to beg and I will just to please her, but I can't let her know that.  Nobody can know. Whatever this feeling is, it's weak and Alejandro Romano can't have a weakness.

Especially her, I have to many enemies and she will not be collateral damage in their plans to ruin me.
"Hey." Peanut Interrupts my train of thoughts, "what's the name?" He asked as he logged into his computer. "Her name is Cecilia Rose, she came from New York a few years ago with her little sister Penelope." I give him the information.

I know I shouldn't look into her past, but when she told me that she ran away because she didn't want her fathers men to get her, it sparked a question.
Who really is Cecilia Rose?

"Looks like she didn't exist until about 4 years ago." Peanut said looking up from his computer, Peanut is our tech guy at the warehouse. He stops from hacks happening, he can find anything or anybody, and helps us locate shipments. He's also my 'favorite' cousin.

"Are you sure? How is this possible?" I ask him trying to find out more, needing to find out more information about her. "Yes, I'm sure. It must be a fake name, Dro." He tells me.

She lied to me. The realization makes me spark with rage, "Get Enrique on the phone NOW!" I yell at Peanut, for all we know she can be a spy sent by the Wolves to destroy me.

"Here" Peanut hands me the phone, "what's up big bro?" Enrique's voice comes from the phone, "Get your ass over here, we have some serious talking to do." I hang up and shove the phone towards peanut.

"I want you to find out everything you can on her. Everything." I order him. I leave the tech room and make my way to my office. I quickly close the door behind me and sit down at my desk. I open up my computer and look up murders that happen four years ago in New York. I need to find out more, it's killing me.

The results pops up and I read the headlines.

'Mass murder, 20 dead'
No.
'House burned down, 1 dead'
No
'New York's finest family, The De Leon family 2 killed, 1 injured'
I read the last headline. There use to be a powerful mafia called The lions. Los De Leno's AKA The lions were in competition with my family's mafia. They fell off the face of the earth when the Don, Gilberto was murder by one of his sons.

I click on the website and the first thing that pops up is a family photo. The photo shows a family of three, the man and women are standing straight, not touching each other. The man had a serious look on his face and the wife gave a fake smile, but what caught my attention was the little girl. She couldn't be more than 13.

She was standing still with her hands down her side, standing right in front of her parents. She had a forced smile and her hair was straight and black.

Her father has a hard grip on her shoulder and the mother isn't even close to touching her. I zoom in to see the little girl, as I look closer the more she looks like Cecelia. But Cecelia has brown wavy hair?

Hair dye? Maybe? Cecelia a 'De Leon'? I doubt it, but if she is I wonder if she knows? All these questions running through my mind and I can't answer any of them. It's driving me crazy.

"I'm here" Enrique comes rushing in, he seems like he was panicking. "Sit down." I tell him, "what did you want to talk about?" He asked me.
"Cecelia" I simply state, he raise an eyebrow and gives me a confused look. "What about her?" He leans back in the chair, looking more at ease. "She's isn't who she says she is." I say getting upset.

"She didn't exist until 4 years ago, she has a fake name." I say getting up and going to get some whiskey. "She could be a spy for the Wolves, and YOU brought her here." I pointed a finger at him, "Did you even do a background check on her before you brought her here?" I ask

"Well- I mean no, but before you say anything-"he rushes out, "I trust her okay, I didn't have a reason too." He tried to defend himself.

"If she turns out to be a spy or some shit, I will have a bullet through your head. Capisci?" I say and down the rest of my drink, setting down the glass.

"Ahhhhh" I hear someone scream, more like I hear Penelope scream. I immediately look at Enrique and his eyes are wide, he looks scared. "YOU BROUGHT HER HERE" I yell at him, before he can respond, she burst through door and falls on her face.

"Sorry boss, she ran away. That little girl is fast." Beto says out of breath, bending down with his hands on his knees. I give him a nod, dismissing him.

"Shit" Enrique says and quickly gets up to help her. "I had to, Cecilia went to a few job interviews and ask if I can watch her. Then you called and said to come over here." He explains, "Cecelia is going to kill me." He says as he see's the small cut on Penelope's cheek. "I'm going to kill you if you don't leave now" I seethed out. He nods and picks up Penelope, and leaves.

Fucking dumbass, he can be a pain in my ass, but I would never exchange it for anything. I love my brother dearly, but he would have to kill me before he knows that.

I walk down to peanuts office, I enter the big room and stroll towards him. "I want you to compare these two faces and tell me if their the same person. Call me when you have the results. Oh and dinner on Friday at my house 6pm sharp." I invite him over.

Every month I invite my closes friend to eat dinner and we just hang out. I buy food for the rest of my men and give them the day off to spend with their family or whatever the hell they do.

Family is a huge part of our mafia. We have three rules in our Mafia:
-family always comes first
-Never betray your friends/family
- No abuse of any kind

When Cecilia told me about her shitty excuse if a father, my blood boil like never before.
God, what the hell am I going to do about Cecilia? What can I do? I still have to get married, I need that power. But is it worth it at the expense of my mafia or worse myself...
