Antonios POV

Come in

Voilently tapping on the keys of my laptop, I worked on a letter I had to send out immediately. I am currently in a bad mood because I just discovered most of my shipments have been stolen by a rival mafia. Fucking Bastards.

Being the leader of a mafia comes with a lot of responsibilities and titles. Capo de Capi (Boss of all bosses), Im called although Im just 25.

Come in I barked at whosoever was behind the door seeing they didnt hear me the first time.

Don shes ready at the basement Dante one of my most trusted men said. Judging by how he called me Don he should be as angry as I am. Dante is like a brother to me. His dad was my fathers most trusted man, so whenever the adults are working, we sneak off to play, being the naive kids, we were. We grew up together so it only makes sense he is part of my closest circle and therefore one of the only people that call me by my name.

Getting up from my table, I headed for the basement with Felix following close behind. The basement was dimly lit with blood staining the walls and floors. I walked deeper in, turning a corner, I see the maid tied up properly in one of the cells. Seeing her face makes all my bottled-up anger resurface.

Why did you kill him! I shouted at her.

Don, I swear I didnt kill him she cried rather too innocently for a killer.

And what would you say about the poison we found in your bag, the same poison you used to kill him

Don, I assure you, I dont know how it got there

I dont know if she is expecting her tears to have an impact on me because it isnt working. Having killed a man at 15, no amount of blood or wailing would make me as much as flinch.

Grabbing a knife from a table in the cell, I place it on her neck, just enough to make a small cut.

Please Don, I have a family and kids, I cant leave them behind

Then confess

I didnt do it, please believe me

Hearing enough of her thrash, I slit her neck before walking out of the cell. Dante handed me a towel to wipe the blood of. I am normally against killing women but what she did is unforgiveable.

Getting back to my office feeling worse than I did when I left.

*buzz buzz*

I dig my hands in my pocket and bring out my phone.

Did you get her

Yes boss, we got her

Injections?

Yh, shes a real tough one Don

Then get Doctor Martinez as soon as you arrive

NORA ZAMANI. I picked up her folder which sat on the other piles of books. Going through it I discover she doesnt have any friends so it will be easier no one will suspect she is gone.This will be interesting

With that I headed to my mothers room.

Is she there I asked Gianni, her bodyguard guarding her room.

Yes Don He gave a respectful nod.

As usual, mom just sat staring at the wall. Thats all she ever did these days. She wasn't always like this, I can remember the way she smiled and hugged me and my siblings when we came back from school. She was always full of life. But not anymore, not after he died.

I took a chair and sat opposite her, her once glowing face now drained of all its colors. I brushed some hair covering her eyes behind her ears. Mom was like my special support, I always come to her when I need someone to talk to even though she never gives a positive or negative reply, the least she would do was blink.

Mom, I finally got the bride you wanted I said in a very low tone.

She just gave a small smile, still staring at the wall. If only she wasnt like this, I can imagine what her reaction would have being. If only I protected him well enough.

I got up and kissed her forehead before taking my leave. Taking a few steps down the hall where her room was my phone rang.

What I shouted through the phone.

Shes in your room Don

Get Diego, Tiago and Nigel to guard everywhere surrounding my room, Im on my way

Yes Don

With that I ended the call, and continued my journey to the basement, my office and office where in the same building but the house was so large it took a while to get around.
