Fire & Ice

Him

Domenic's POV

I pulled up my yellow Lamborghini at the mansion next to the other 6 cars I own, I walked up to my room to take a shower and was met with my second in command Leo, "Man you really do stink" said Leo pretending to gag. "Leo, stai zitto"  I said walking past him completely ignoring his childish behavior "e portami un espresso".

Leo was my best friend and my second in command, I've known him since birth because his father was my father's second in command. Leo and I were always a team, and still are; we did everything together, we even dated the same girls in boarding school.

With his blonde hair and 6 ft figure and my looks, we became a chick magnet. Everything in me invites the opposite sex in, my black hair, deep grey eyes, my 6'2 figure, and of course my ways.

I reached my room, finally the dark ambiance engulfing me, the room had plain white walls with a large bed in the middle with black silk covers and black curtains. I headed in to my ensuite bathroom  that had white tiles, a matte black shower, a white bathtub with a view of the Sicilian beaches. I stripped and entered the shower scrubbing myself harshly to remove all the blood of my body.

Oh sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, I am Domenico Romano, the Don of the Dons, I rule Italy, I am the king here and no one dares to face me, all of the people bow in my presence. As for love... I don't do love. 

Women are only good for a release, but having only one beside you will only cause you weakness. In my opinion, the more the better, why have one, when you can have any woman or in my case, women.

I turned the water off and entered my dressing room, I changed into black sweatpants and a white T-shirt and headed down to drink my espresso.

Leo waited for me in my study with 2 cups of espresso so I sat down in front of him and took a sip from my espresso, the bitter taste of the fine coffee beans enticing my tongue buds, " I'm gonna go prepare everything, might as well hook us up with some babes", Leo said playfully.

I smirked thinking of how this trip would bring me some wild nights. It would be very helpful for my nerves and a getaway from all the shit here in Italy. This weekend was the grand opening of my new exclusive club 'White', that was located in my most successful hotel La Serina.

A person like me needed this kind of business to cover up for my not so legal one. After all it was a very smart idea for money laundering and it brought me extra profit; "Leo please make sure that my penthouse is well cleaned and make sure they stock it up with snacks and drinks because we're going to stay there for a week, and you know I hate to see stuff out of its place." Leo replied with a nod and excused himself giving me a wink before he exited the huge door of my study.

My study was spacious, it had huge windows that provided a great view of my mansion premises. The furniture was classic, all made by heavy chestnut wood and covered with red leather. In front of my huge desk and leather chair, were shelves filled with many books and documents; it was a facade because behind these shelves was a secret passage to the dungeons in my mansion.The mansion was very peaceful because I had only one home care giver, Maria, the woman who practically was my nanny after my mom's death.

I decided to go over some documents for sometime before I decided to call it a night and go to bed. I went into my room having the dark aura engulf my senses, I walked towards the bed and pulled up the satin black bed covers. I laid on my floating bed mattress and started scrolling through my messages and emails, after some time, my eyes became heavy and I was out just like the light.

I woke up the next morning and prepared myself for the day, for I have to make sure everything is in check and I must assign the tasks to the men for the following week because I won't be here in Sicily. I drove my red Ferrari to an estate I own not so far away from my place, it was built and furnished to accommodate some men who were close to me and had to be up-to-date on the latest news 24/7.

Apart from the estate I have a headquarter where I hold mafia meetings frequently  with the council members that represent my mafia in politics. They attend the meetings I cannot go to, and represent my mafia in the mafia congress. The mafia congress is an organization created by us, mafia dons, in order to form allies and strengthen the bonds within the organization.

I soon arrived at the estate and was greeted by the guards, there should always be security in the estate, the guards are divided into 4 shifts 24/7 because the estate is so important and targeted that it has to be protected and guarded as much as I should be.

I gave them an small curt and exited my car giving them the keys to park it underground. I sighed as I walked through the huge doors of my 3 story estate with Prada shades covering my eyes, I just hope everything will stay in line till I come back, I thought as I reached my study.

Translation:

stai zitto: shut up.

portami un espresso: bring me and espresso.
