Chapter 2 - Russo Party

It was the next day and the day of the annual Russo party. Elena's father threw a huge party every year with all of his suppliers and other mafia families which he had connections too. However as Elena was taking over the Russo Mob, she had to throw it. She had spent weeks arranging it, it was finally the night. The Martini Family we're going to be there, Mateo's family, the family of the guy Elena killed. Elena slipped into a skin tight black dress.
"Miss Russo, looking as beautiful as ever" Mateo smiled
"I thought you were here, I thought I could smell a snake" Elena smirked
"You know you love me" Mateo smiled
"Enough flirting Mateo" A man yelled
"Sorry father" Mateo said
"Giovanni" Elena said
"I've invited potential suppliers tonight" Giovanni said
"To a Russo family event?" Elena asked
"Well as you know, as soon as you turn 27. It'll be both you and my son running this thing" Giovanni said as he picked up a glass of whiskey and sipped it
"Don't mess this up" He said
"Don't worry. I'll be here to clean up your mess" Elena said

The night was going well, you had been brought into a room with the new supplier
"Right, who's the boss?" The man said in a husky Scottish accent
"You know plain well who the boss is" Mateo spat
"I want weekly deliveries, 10 kilos a week. You get 30%, I keep the rest. You get 50% protection from both the Russo bodyguards and the Martini Bodyguards" Elena explained
"I don't think that was our deal" Dean  said
"Well that's my deal, take it or leave it" Elena spat
"What if I don't like your deal?" Dean asked as he walked closer to Elena
"You can walk out that door and go back to that dump you came from" Elena spat
Alan reached for his back pocket where his gun was sat. Mateo walked over to him, put his hand on his hand
"If you want to see tomorrow I highly suggest that you do not lay a hand on her" Mateo muttered in his ear
"Doors that way, don't let it hit you on the way out" Elena said as she tilted her head
"Your gonna regret this" Dean said as he walked out. Just as Alan was walking out, he quickly walked out and pulled out his gun. Elena pulled hers out too and shot him right between the eyes before he even got his finger on the trigger. His blood was spread across her face.
"What a way to ruin perfectly good makeup" Elena said as she slipped her gun away
"Nice shot" Mateo said inspecting the bullet wound
"Well unlike you, I never miss" Elena smirked
"I need to go get cleaned up, you got this?" Elena asked
"Oh it would be my pleasure" Mateo smiled as he grabbed a shovel

An hour later both Mateo and Elena returned to the party. They were greeted by their fathers
"Where the hell have you two been?" Carlo yelled
"We had to take care of something, ask Angelo if you don't believe me" Elena said
"How was the meeting?" Giovanni asked
"He never showed" Mateo smirked
"That's weird" Giovanni said
"Extremely weird" Elena muttered
"Well if you'll excuse us, we need to go network" Mateo said as they both walked off
They were both stood talking to their suppliers
"Boss, we've got a problem" Angelo said
"If you'll excuse us" Elena smiled as both her and Mateo followed Angelo inside
"We did the hit your ordered, however there was one problem" Angelo said
They walked inside to see a 5 year old girl sitting on a chair, Elena's eyes widened when she saw her
"Luca; why the fuck did you bring a kid back with you!" Mateo yelled to his bodyguard
"Boss you have to know, we didn't touch her" Angelo pleaded
"I know you didn't, this was a Martini hit" Elena said as she looked at Mateo
"A 5 year old?! What the hell were you thinking!" Mateo yelled
"She was a threat boss!" Luca said
"A 5 year old?! What's she going to do? Hit you with her barbie?!" Mateo yelled
"Hey honey" Elena smiled as she kneeled down in front of the 5 year old
The 5 year old was shaking
"It's okay, we're not going to hurt you" Elena smiled as she reached her hand out
"I wanna go home" The little girl said taking Elena's hand
"I know you do, come on let's go" Elena said as she began to walk out the front door
"Your walking her home?" Mateo asked
"It's only a 10 minute walk" Elena said
"Fine, but be safe" Mateo said
Elena began to walk when she looked behind her, 5 black range rovers, belonging to the Martini Family. Elena pulled out her phone

Elena - 5? That's a bit excessive
Mateo - Please, don't want anyone messing up that beautiful face of yours

Elena smiled as she put her phone in her back pocket....
