"Romano" I said my coat swaying with the cold night air , I brought out my gun from my holster, marching to him, he held up his hands in surrender backing away from me with a shit eating grin gracing his lips "Give me a reason not to end your life." I pointed the gun to his heart still maintaining eye contact. He covered my hands with his, slightly raising the gun from his chest. "Calm down darling, there's no need to make rash descions." I removed my gun from his chest and put it back in my holster, I turned back to him breathing the cool night air to calm myself "That wasn't so hard now was it love" I bit my tongue and threw a perfectly angled punch to his dumb face "Just because I can't kill doesn't mean I won't try to torture you" my face hardened as I looked down on him on the floor He spat out blood and looked at me with bloody lips "I could have lost a tooth you know" I gave him a deadly glare "Fine I'll talk" he stretched his hands asking for help but I shrugged him off "fine I'll help Myself up then" he dusted himself off and I removed a handkerchief from my pocket, a habit I learned from Angel, I gave him the handkerchief so he could clean his lips, I nodded when he said thank you. "Speak Romano, my patience is very thin." He sniffed before that dumb grin graced his lips once more, he came close to me caging me in-between the wall and and himself "C'mon love, you can't still be salty because of last time" he brought his face close to mine and rubbed his nose down the crook of my neck.
My resolve broke for a second before I came to my senses, I kneed him in the balls "Fucking hell Hailee" I clutched his collar "Talk now Romano" he groaned out "fine, but your sisters have to be there." I rolled my eyes and walked away, I stood beside my car waiting for Roman who was limping. We drove in silence, I suppressed the urge to kiss and kill him. I had already contacted my sisters telling them to wait for me at my office. "This had better be good Romano" he gave a smile "trust me it is"
I parked and tossed the key to Mata, telling him with my eyes that I wanted no disturbance. "Nice place, Guerra took care of you huh" Roman said as we walked in "Atleast he didn't leave like someone" I threw him an ice pack, ignoring the look on his face. "Follow me" "Hailee..." I turned to him on the stairs "Save it Roman, you turned your back on me and left me with Alberto, just say what you have to say and leave" he kept quiet following me to my office. I opened the door, walking and throwing my jacket on the black sofa, walked to my table and poured myself a drink, the door opened and Amara and katana walked in. "What is he doing here" katana held Amara from hitting Roman. "I don't fancy you Amara but that's no way to potentially greet someone who could have been your brother in law" katana stood in between them placing her palms on their chest. I leaned on the table sipping ny drink watching it unfold "I'm glad Hailee didn't end up with a backstabber like you, there are special places in hell for people like you" "You and I both know that Alberto tricked me." Katana was pushing Amara back "Calm yourself Amara." "You can settle your issues with Alberto when I eventually send you running back to hell where you both came from" Amara removed her Gun pointing it at him, Roman pointed his gun back at her. I decided to intervene before one of then would end with a bullet, I finished my drink in a Gulp and threw the cup at the wall, having their attention with glass breaking. "Guns down both of you" they held their gazes, each of them refusing to back "I said Guns down NOW" Roman put his gun back and Amara followed. It was at this moment Angel and Charity walked in, looking at the chaos infront of them, I slightly stunned looking at Angel in a dress "What in God's name happened here" charity said stepping over the shards of glass.
Angel's eyes narrowed On Roman, it was no secret, Roman had issues with each of us and we had bones to pick with him. "Are we inviting our enemies to the dinner table now Hailee" Angel asked, and I asked her with my eyes to please hold her wicked tongue, Angel could destroy one physical and mentally. "Nice to see you to Angel, killed anyone yet" a blade whizzed past katana landing in the space between his trousers embedding its self in the Sofa, I saw Romans eyes widened in fear and I held in a life. "If you don't start talking, you might just be the first one I end in two weeks" he coughed nervously, removing the blade from the couch. "Now that that's settled you need to talk now" I said, refusing to look at him "You all are being watched" Angel rolled her eyes "we know, your comrades in blue Need to step up their game" we had all known about the police cars following us since our reunion "Since when do cops poke their nose in mafia business" for some odd reason the police seemed interested all of a sudden had an interest in my family. Charity statement seemed to have aggravated Roman "Since Hailee became Don" he answered with his teeth clenched, I cocked my head to the side. "The five leaders are working with the police, it seems they aren't all for feminism, they want to bring you down with the help of the police. I ran my hands through my hair 'Why are they doing this, they swore their alliance to her" katana said, "They didn't, they swore it to Alberto." Angel replied They have their eyes on the Italian mafia "Exactly, now that Alberto Is dead, they want the throne back in their family " Roman added "Fuck, I am their their family" I ran my hand through my hair exasperated and tired of this mess Albeto forced me into "You're not, the Guerra family was murdered by you Hailee." "So what Angel, she bears the last name" charity said "Still doesn't make her fit to lead, the only thing that stood between her and death all these years is that you played the role of a content and pacifying wife all this time but now...." "I am the Don" I said completing Romans statement, he snapped his fingers "People fear and obey you more them" "What are we going to do Hailee" I wracked my brain ,thinking of a solution "I don't even know why they want the tittle so bad, they don't have successors" a light bulb lit brightly on my head, I let a dark laugh "Exactly, they don't have successors, so if they go missing no one would miss them," I looked at Roman, he had once again proven useful despite everything "Just promise me one thing Hailee, none of my men dies" "Aren't you too deep in this to play the good cop card, you just gave us information that screws your men over." I pondered over Katana's words wondering why he had chosen to help me "I am not doing this for you guys but for her" Roman pointed to me, I looked away from him "I figured this could be a point in my favor" Angel scoffed at him as he put his jacket on "Just promise my men's safety" "No promises Roman" I said "I'll take what I can " "Just do what you must." he winked at me,and like that he was out the door.
