The Italian Mafia and The Orphan

Chapter 1

Giovanni Moretti

I walk into the basement as Alessandro, my second in command and my other men hold the bastard that tried to run away before paying his debt. I go over the weapons which are laid down on the table and grabs a dagger. The men step back as I walk in front of the tied-up lowlife, Alessandro staying by my side.

"Where is my money?" I ask as I sharp the dagger even more.

The man starts shaking and begging to not hurt him. I look at him and kicks his stomach, he falls to the ground still tied to the chair. The man cried in pain.

"I will ask one more time...Where is my money?!" I watch him as he struggles.

"I... I don't have them. I m sorry please! I will get them for you. Just give me a week! Please Mr. Moretti" he cries out frightened.

I grab him by his hair lifting him up.

"You had 6 months to pay me back and now your out of time" I say.

I stab him in the chest and drags it down to his stomach. He screams in pain till he loses consciousness from the blood loss. I drop him and I watch him as he s on the ground dying slowly. I look at my men.

"Send his head to his family and tell them to come up with money. They have 3 months to pay up or..." I look at his dying body "they end up like him".

I put the dagger down and leaves the room. I shower and puts on fresh clothes heading to my company as Alessandro takes care of the mafia while I'm gone.

Aurora Rossi

I wake up in mine and my friend's rented apartment in the morning. I go to the supermarket buying food and other essentials. I go back to the apartment and cook breakfast. Sofia wakes up groaning and complaining as she sits down.

"I really hate mornings" She groans more.

I laugh and hands her breakfast.

"You say that every morning" I say as I sit down and joins her eating breakfast.

We clear the table and kitchen and we both go to our job, both of us working together in a diner since the age of 18 after we both leave the orphanage.

Hours pass, me and Sofia work hard serving customers. Our boss call for us and let us have a break. She lets us cook our free meal and we take a seat around the table in the corner. We eat and talk. The door opens and a beautiful woman walks in, she walks over to the counter and looks at the menu. I get up and goes behind the counter asking her what she would like. I put in her order and wait for her order to pack it up for her. She makes small talks and I comply.

"I m Valentine by the way" she says smiling.

"I m Aurora"

She takes out her phone and give sit to me. I look at her confused.

"I like you and would like to hang out. Maybe shopping? Or anything you want that is."

I type my phone number and gives it back to her. I pack her order when it was ready. We say our goodbyes and she leave. Sofia comes over after finishing her food and asks about what just happens. I tell her and we get back to work.
