Magnus

Ricardo had sent Julian off somewhere after threatening to blow his head off for being completely useless.

"Tell me you got something for me brother" I said pacing Ricardos office

"She put the earrings on. She's somewhere over water. I'm not getting a good signal" he sat the phone on the table "but your goddess is smart, she recorded the attack" he said and pressed play.

"Oh my god Romeo wake up!" She was crying hysterically "daddy's on his way. And everything will be okay"
It was a scuffle in the background.
"Ou bata!" (You bastard!)

"Beautiful in your mother tongue. Get up" I heard a gun cock I heard heels and a tongue click "Rome did you dress up for me?"

"Mwen pral touye ou" (I'm going to kill you)

"We both know you won't. You're just Julians mistress wife. Arm candy" the man chuckled "Where is your husband?"

"What does my husband have to do with you almost killing my brother!"

"You're the weak link and whether Julian is unfaithful or not. You are his wife and he cares about you-"

"Quit fucking touching me"

"You're husband owes me money. A lot of it. For a stupid idea willing to fail but I entertained it for money. He's trying to put a hit out on his boss. Like the word wont get out. Nobody is dumb enough to kill Ricardo Ferrari" he chuckled "are you fucking Ricardo? That facial expression really gave it away beautiful"

"Maybe I am. I won't tell you, unless you get my brother to a hospital. I'll tell you everything you want to know"

"Really?"

"You haven't got Julians attention but you have mine"

"And what's that going to-"

"Watch out!"

We heard gunshots and bodies hitting the floor "Let's go" the guy said.

"You got any idea who that is?" I asked Ricardo

"Not a fucking clue."

"See if you can run a voice recognition" I said to Oskar and he nodded his head "We need to figure out who attacked the damn attackers" I rubbed my face

Ricardo got up and walked out slamming the door.

Oskar looked up at the door "I hope he's about to kill Jillian" he mumbled

"Are you mad Oskar" I teased him "You worried about my goddess"

"Shut the fuck up." He started typing on the computer "What is it America's call their secret lovers? Oh, you side-" he paused and looked down "I can't say the other part"

Rome

"Listen I'm sorry about your sister but I have nothing to do with Julians shit" I looked away "Shit. Kill him for all I care"

"You sound so detached from him"

I tapped my foot on the floor looking at him "I am"

"The women?"

"Among other things"

"Who is Luna?"

"The fuck did you just ask me?"

"I did some snooping on you, because well I thought you loved your husband but I was obviously wrong. I see you had a child but the fathers name wasn't on the birth certificate"

"May I ask what actually happened to your sister? If it involves my wonderful husband"

"He killed her"

"What?"

"She was pregnant, 13 weeks and he killed her" he said looking me in my eye

I bent over throwing up and started crying "I am so sorry" I held my stomach "Sick fuck"

He handed me a napkin and some water "So did you cheat on Julian with his boss? Is that his baby?"

I chuckled "Ricardo is my....dad"

"Dad?"

"Adopted. For safety purposes we don't tell people"

"You just told me"

"You want my husband dead and so do I. You're my best friend now" he looked at me and smiled shaking his head.

"That can be done." He handed me a water "And Luna?"

"Luna was my daughter. Mine and Julians. She died two days after I had her. He never seen her held her nothing. When she passed and me and my dad finished saying our goodbyes he came in drunk out his ass with his bitch with him" I wiped a tear away "So no. She doesn't have a father, that's Luna"

"I um I'm sorry to hear that"

I shook my head "Not your problem. But you said Julian hired you to kill my dad but yet you know he killed your sister. I'm kinda confused here"

"Like you and your dad, me and my sister didn't acknowledge each other in public. For safety reasons. I would have shot him in his face if it wasn't for my reputation. He offered me an advanced but never received it. I've lost two allies because of him. I can't afford to lose more."

"What if you help me? Get on bored with Julian, get information to give to me and my dad and I can get you an alliance if it's beneficial"

"To who?"

"My dad and Magnus Levin"

"Really? Magnus Levin huh?" He smiled at me

"My little psychopath" I said proudly

"I'll do it"

"Here's the thing. You have to let Julian think it was his idea. Or he'll be suspicious. When you take him up on the offer tell him you want an alliance with the Italian mafia. He'll bring it to me to talk my dad into it"

"Don't tell me you're the brains behind this entire situation"

"Not the entire situation. Just parts. My dad raised me great" I shrugged and smiled

"So you're beauty in front and the brains behind close doors."

"Yes sir I am. You need to let me call my family to let them know I'm okay and to tell them who attacked us"

"Here"

He handed me my phone and I called my dad "Rome?"

"Hey daddy I'm fine"

"Who took you?"

"Diego Gonzalez. Good guy common goal. Jose men attacked us" I said answering his next questions before he asked them.

He didn't say anything for a while "Okay. We're on our way to get you"

"See you soon pop pop"

"Rome-"

I hung up the phone and handed it back to Diego "Ready to get to work?"
