Dona was never the kind of woman to play by the rules. When her father died, leaving behind an empire that many thought was too big for her to handle, she proved them all wrong. She stepped into his shoes without hesitation, determined to command th...

Dalia's POV:
On the drive to my aunt's place, I was completely out of it. I was staring into thin space most of the time, thinking of what might happen to Kimura and the Sasori-gumi.
I couldn't let that happen.
I had thought hard throughout the drive from the hotel, about all that had happened these past months. I had fulfilled my mission hadn't I? And I almost could've never done it without Kimura's help.
He had nothing to do with his father's past actions. Matter of fact, he had never even participated in his father's human trafficking affairs and even stopped the old fool from further carrying out that activity once he found out about it.
Not only did he kill Huroyuki, but he'd also eliminated his father's accomplices and most trusted brothers in the gang- filtering the gang of the worst of vermin. The Sasori-gumi under Kimura and Kimura alone was a new Sasori-gumi. A completely different Sasori-gumi. I had to admit that. Of course they were still a dangerous gang of assassins, murderers and drug dealers; but at least they weren't human traffickers and much worse. Just as when they were under Toyokawa Huroyuki.

I looked over at Kimura who was staring out his window in silence. He soon noticed I was staring at him and he turned to me in wonder.
"Is everything alright, darling?" he asked.
"Do you have my phone with you?" I asked him.
"Unfortunately, no. I should've returned it to you. I forgot. You can use mine if you want."
"Yes, please. Do you have my uncle's number?"
My question seemed to surprise him a little.
"Of course. You want to call him?"
"Yes. Can I have it?" I asked with my hand out.
Without further questioning, Kimura reached into his suit for his phone and then handed it to me.

Writer's POV:
(Osaka, Sasori-gumi Headquarters)
Shotaro and his brothers lined up in front and around the headquarters, all heavily armed and ready for war that early afternoon.
The gates were wide open as they expected the Italians to pull up anytime from then onwards.
