The room only held a few weapons and a computer. Several files were laid about. She wanted to know the truth so she looked at them. They were just a bunch of names and an amount next to them.

Money people owed.

She thankfully didn't recognise many names.

She was about to leave when the door opened and two men entered. She quickly hid before they could see her.

"Boss is going to be mad we gave the guy a extra week to pay" one of them said.

"He was pretty angry when we came in, let's hold off on telling him" the other said

Damon was angry at Emilia for running off.
He had made it clear not to run off. Alesandro made it clear too. And she just had to run off. In a split second she ran and because she was right next to him and not in any danger he let his guard down. It was a big mistake.

"Let's go" the first said putting a few weapons away.

"Hold on" the second said and before Emilia realised she was being pulled out from her hiding spot by her leg.

"What do we have here"

"A little young to be a spy"

"Maybe we should take her to the boss first"

"He's busy, tell us why you're looking around. Maybe your family owes money and you are trying to cross them off the list?"

"I swear I'm not, I accidentally entered this room and then you both came in so I panicked " Emilia said panicking.

This was never her intention. She just wanted to know the truth. She knew Damon was hiding how bad the Mafia was.

"Just take her to the cells, I'm hungry and tired. I don't want to deal with a stupid little girl"

So one of them dragged her out. She was struggling in their grip and tears fell down her face, she was scared but she had been stupid.

"You're lucky we can't be bothered dealing with you, actually we're taking pity on you , the boss is angry at the moment, if you're lucky we will wait till he's calmed down to tell him you broke in"

The two men didn't know it was his sister they had hold of.

The protocol was one of the following.

Shoot first and seek forgiveness later.
A trip to the cells
Or a trip to the boss.

When people were taken to the boss it was rare they survived because they had seen his face. The exception being if he covered his face.

They had both been sent out today because they were two of the many that Damon had sent out on jobs to hide the dangers. But they had a easy time and were back a few hours early.

But really, they were being nice to her all things considered.

"The boss as in the actual Mafia boss" she asked knowing they might mean whoever they report back to and that person would report back to the Mafia boss.

"Yes"

"What's his name?" She asked, she was curious since he always refused to give a name.

"Nice try kid. He has his identity secret for a reason. He'll probably send someone down to deal with you, he doesn't like people seeing his face"

"Someone like Damon?" She dared ask.

Both men stopped hearing her say his name.

"What the fuck is going on here"

And of course Damon appeared.

Both men were confused and didn't know what to say.They gulped and stepped back in fear. She clearly knew him so she wasn't snooping. They saw him glaring and knew they fucked up.

"We found her in the room when we were putting weapons away" one dared explain.

"And we didn't know who she was so we followed protocol and since she's just a kid we thought it best to just put her in the cells" the other added.

Damon nodded. He couldn't exactly blame the two men. They didn't know his sister was visiting because he sent them away.

"Well I'll take it from here" he said.

He was suprised when both men didn't move from either side of her, instead they then took a step in front, as if they were shielding her.

"Maybe we should just take her to the cells until you have calmed down" one of them said.

"She's just a kid, she probably isn't even a threat"

It dawned on Damon they were protecting her.

"I am calm. I was only angry because my sister decided to be stupid and run away but thankfully you found her. I'll make sure the boss knows you were just following the rules" he said adding the last part so they didn't address him as boss.

"Fuck. We are sorry, we didn't know"

"Are you hurt Emilia" Damon asked.

She shook her head.

"No harm done. Go get on with your day" he told them.

They quickly left feeling lucky their boss didn't decide to kill them.

"Sorry" she whispered seeing Damon still glaring.

"Sorry doesn't cut it Emilia. How could you be so stupid? This is a dangerous place, you do realise those men had no idea you were my sister, you're fucking lucky it wasn't someone worse. You could have been killed. I told you not to do anything stupid but you went ahead and did it. You are reckless, immature and it's clear I can't fucking trust you" his voice was dark and cold as he snapped at her.

"Well it's not my fault, you're hiding all the bad parts trying to make me feel like you aren't a bad person but you are. You are a terrible person"

Her words had caught quite a bit of attention. It was normal for Damon to snap at someone but for them to talk back.

"I warned you Emilia. Do.not. Insult. Me"

Emilia shuddered, the man in front of her didn't seem like the same man who cuddled her when she had a nightmare. He seemed more like the nightmare.

"Mia bambina" Alesandro called rushing up to her.

He had been looking for her too.

"Never scare me like that again." He warned in a voice strictly reserved for Damon when he stepped out of line. She quickly nodded not daring to go against him.

"You're hiding stuff still. You said you wouldn't. Those men said they would have taken me to the boss. I want to meet him" she said.

"Why" Alesandro asked.

'hes the boss, could be interesting to see what he's like when he's not saving me "

"You know what. Let's go meet the fucking boss. You're so fucking desperate to see what the Mafia is like. Dad take her to his office"

After several minutes a man came in, his face hidden by the balaclava mask. Damon had changed his outfit to make him more unrecognisable.

He entered abd Emilia regretted it instantly, he was pissed.

"You foolish child. Running about my property when there are killers roaming the building. Are you out of your fucking mind. Scratch that, you cleary have no brain. Never dare come back here without my say so. You stupid bitch. Get out of my sight. Now"

She did as she was told.






Ok so it's a bit of a shit ending but hope to build on it, currently falling asleep so apologize for errors. If you with me on book 3 it means you obviously like my writting. So I'm thinking of writing a new book, a classic cliché billionaire and assistant.

Damon is angry because she could have been killed.
Next chapter will build slightly on the anger. What do you guys think of in consequences for her actions.
