Crazy for you

Chapter 24

Days moved slowly as the mafia busied itself with gathering intel on the Russian mafia. Elio was in constant contact with his Russian base, he planned to head there in the next few weeks when he has enough information on the Russian movements and motives.

Life inside the mafia house moved slowly as well. A few meetings a week would be held about the Russian situation with the small group of lead members present.

Elio spent the rest of his time dealing with smaller matters like how to deal with men who stole money from him, taking down sex trafficking rings, taking out small gangs that dealt drugs on his territory, etc.

After much pleading, Selenia busied her time with the interrogation of anyone Elio and his men brought in.

She couldn't ask for a better way to spend her time, except perhaps if Elio was by her side. That would make for the perfect way to pass time. Blood, lust, and love.

Like every morning Selenia and Elio headed down to the dining hall for breakfast where the top members were always present.

Being creatures of habit, Selenia sat on Elio's lap while she smoked and read, while Elio talked and ate. Elio would then feed Selenia when he was done. She'd never take her eyes off her book while he brought fork fulls of food to her mouth.

Selenia would receive glares from members around the table. Her family and her ex, of course, and some older mafia members who had a problem with her, which she was still trying to figure out. And of course, a few women who looked like they wanted to kill her.

Selenia never cared for the cat fights over men. No man is worth that. They can stare and glare all they want, Selenia could careless. She knew Elio was hers.

Of course, she had a burning feeling of jealousy and anger towards the women but these days Selenia was trying to stay calmer, and she always hated fighting a fellow woman. Selenia strongly believed in Feminism and women supporting other women.

But she couldn't help it, if a bitch is a bitch, there's not much you can do about it.

Feeling the burning stares Selenia flicked her eyes up from her book, peering at some women at the other end of the table.

They did nothing to hide their distaste for her and it began to get on her nerves.

"If you have something to say then say it." Selenia's icy tone hushed all other conversations being held at the table.

All attention turned toward the interaction between the women.

"We feel you are unworthy of sitting on Don's lap. From what we can tell you are just an American whore. You have no respect for this mafia or the Rossi family!"

Selenia was now remembering how old school and dedicated some of the Italian families were in this mafia.

"I'm sorry, I just don't understand where you got the impression that your opinion matters here?" Selenia responded. She couldn't say she had even seen them around the house, let alone know their names.

"How dare you! We are a part of honorable families in this mafia! You are a Russian whore."

"Am I a Russian of American whore? Pick one. Make up your mind" Selenia was still smoking her cigarette watching the women get all red-faced. They suddenly stood out of agitation.

Elio wanted to let Selenia have free reign in his mafia, he never wanted to suppress herself, he wanted her to express herself to the fullest, so he could ass all that he loved about her.

However, the conversation was getting heated and he was starting to fear for the women down the table. It would be such a mess with those families if she killed them. He squeezed Selenia's hip in a warning.
