I've Been Found

Catching Up

"Mommy" I heard. I looked down to see Romana hugging my leg.

"Romana" I said picking her up. I tickled her and she giggled.

Romana. My daughter and Ray's daughter... Yes Ray.

That night I left, 3 years ago, 3 weeks later I got sick and went to the doctor. Just to be said I was a month pregnant with Ray's child.

My dad was not so...thrilled that his 18 year old daughter was pregnant. On the other hand my mom was thrilled. I don't understand why when mom and dad did the same thing when they was 18!

I went through pregnancy with the help of Max, Henry, and my parents. Along with my men who've supported me so well.

I'm 21 years old now and somewhat of a single parent.

I've kept in contact with Mr. De Luca and he can't wait to meet his granddaughter. I can't wait to see Ray too. It's hard raising a now 3 year old who ask where's her dad. Then homeschooling her and keeping away from the French Mafia. I've grown closer to the French Mafia because for a year I went undercover as his number one assassin. I faked my death and returned home after a lot of information.

François. He keeps out from the battle field so, when I do attack. It needs to be at his base. He's a sly, ruthless man. I've killed nearly 30 people just to gain his trust. I've tortured many.

I've learned a lot from their area of work an I feel... New. The skills, the difference between a hunter and being hunted. I would have never learned that with my father...though that's a good thing. The things I've learned are more wicked and evil than the others. More sick than my father's tactics.

I placed Romana on her eating chair and fed her lunch.

She always smiles. Smiles like her father. Has her father's eyes too. She will definitely be a daddy's girl when I see Ray again... Hopefully. I just can't help but wonder if Ray would hate me for leaving him. Especially leaving him with a baby who's of the enemy. My plan was to keep him safe, I can't let a baby get involved with a Mafia war that isn't his... Though my plan kinda took a turn for I got pregnant.

I heard footsteps entering the kitchen and it was non other than Henry.

"Romana" he sung as his poked Romana. Romana laughed and she pinched Henry's ears causing him to grab it and pout.

"I forgot. She goes for the ears" Henry said glaring at me.

"I don't know why you expect me to remind you. That was your 9th time. You'll start to remember." I said patting his shoulde with a smile.

"Well, other than that, we got a new enemy. Someone has been stealing our cargo and capturing our men. Non has died yet. Not even tortured. Their heart monitors read perfect heart beats." Henry said lowly.

"That's odd. Why capture my men and do no harm?" I said carefully, washing the dishes and placing them on the rack to dry.

"Who knows. But 23 men have disappeared including Jackson." Henry said sternly.

"Jackson too? Something is up. I'm going personally" I said washing my hands.

"You can't. I know it's been 3 years, you've given birth and you went undercover for a YEAR to the enemy as an assassin. Your taking risk and haven't gotten proper sleep in weeks. Your tired" Henry said picking up Romana.

"Well I can't just lay back and watch my men get kidnapped to who knows where." I said taking Romana. She pinched my ears and I smiled, kissing her cheek.

"Alright then. Next Cargo ship comes in tomorrow night. We need to be ready" He said nodding. I nodded stiffly and walked upstairs with a sleepy Romana cradling close to my chest.

I smiled and took her to her room and laid her in the bed. Well, should I say princess bed. It has long see through curtains all around the bed that hangs from the ceiling. The bed was baby pink with white heart bed sheets and covers with fluffy white pillows. Along with pink railings on the bed.

Her room is fit for a princess. When Koa comes I'll have his fit for a prince. Everyone has a room in this mansion.. Even Lola. Lola has not waken up yet either. The doctors are doing further investigation on why. Max has stayed true though. He's bathed her, made sure her feeding tube works, brushed her hair, talks to her, kisses her cheek before bed. He never left her side. Of course she had to be transported to another hospital here.

My dad thought it was best to move back to Mexico to draw the French Mafia further away from Ray and his family. Dad made the right shot because French Mafia has made a base in Texas. Close enough to the Mexico border. The American Mafia siblings have been keeping in touch with me on his movements. We've became close allies.

I watched as Romana fell asleep. The guards came into the room and I nodded. "Thank you. I shouldn't be gone long tomorrow. My dad will be home from work" I said smiling.

"Take your time Miss Martinez. We will keep Romana safe." Zack said with a smile and nod. I nodded sternly with a smile and walked out the room. I went to my room and took off my clothes for a nice shower.

The steam made my hair frizz up a bit and the warm droplets of water traveled down my body relieving so much tension.

These few years have been hard but I'm closer to the French Mafia than any of my ancestors ever could.

It's time to get revenge. It's time to end this war once and for all. Eliminating all the French Mafia members one by one until no one is left.
