Two months after Regenia was taken, she's finally back in her lover's arms. The question hangs over everyone's head. What happened to her during her time away? What happened to the Romano Famiglia? All will come to light, but they are hit with a tra...

A day later, Giuseppe and some of the others found themselves sitting in Takahiro's Japanese home. They were trying to find the right way to confront Yamaguchi, but nothing he thought of was working. Regenia was right. The Cobras were signed under Xerxes's alliance, as many others were. They all knew the rules, which stated all mafias signed under The Oni's contract were allies, this meant they couldn't be enemies. Everyone knew this, and it threw Giuseppe off. Why would Yamaguchi risk his life chasing after an old feud? Something about this seemed wrong, but it was hard to pinpoint it.
First, it was the man who tried to attack him at their gala; he wore the mark of the Cobra, but something about it felt off. The Japanese were known to strike with a sword, and although he had a blade, it was nothing like the one they carried. Jake was another thing he worried about, and how he showed up knowing The Cobras were in New York with no explanation to back him. Giuseppe wanted to trust his wife's father, but something about him felt bad. Jake was a good man, but it didn't mean he couldn't make wrong decisions.
"Why are you so fucking quiet, G?"
"Thinking... I'm trying to get an understanding of this shit. I want to believe Yamaguchi is behind this, but something feels off." Jacob nodded as he took a shot of whatever Tanaka was giving him. Giuseppe, on the other hand, had learned his lesson. He didn't drink or smoke anything, he didn't see one of them make or roll. The Köhlers were hardcore drinkers, and the ones that didn't drink smoked some strong ass weed. It took him one time to fuck up, and since then, he watched everything they did. "Do you even know what you are drinking?"
"That topnotch Japanese shit... Tanaka said it was called Suntory Yamazaki Malt Whiskey. You want to try some?" Giuseppe stared at the man beside him before looking down at the time. It was 1:15 in the evening in Japan, meaning it was 5:15 in the morning in Italy. Therefore, he kindly declined his offer. "I need to keep my mind clear. Drinking isn't going to help shit."
"Then smoke something nigga. You look like grumpy the bear over there... ugly as fuck." Giuse rolled his eyes as he waved off Elijah and his crazy attempts. He was trying to figure out what was going on. Who wanted them to go after Yamaguchi blindly, and why? Today, they needed to find the problem, or the Romano's and Hanzo's would be at each other necks, causing the Oni to drop them. Maybe this is what they wanted. This could be about tearing apart the union since most were against it. Xerxes started this to stop all of the unnecessary wars that was going on around them. Too many were starting wars or holding on to past grudges— hatred that was impaled into their children and grandchildren. Giuseppe knew The Cobras and his family had a past, and he learned they had gotten their revenge from past documents.
"So, your ugly ass is just gonna sit there and ignore me. I see how it's going to be nigga, fuck you too bitch."
"Why are you so fucking aggressive today? Damn, nigga are you on your fucking period or some shit?" Hakeem asked as Elijah flipped him off, as he walked away. Sometimes, the man was a little emotional, and today was one of those days. Giuseppe knew they were coming up on the anniversary of his twin's death, and every year around this time, he became bitchy. "Ignore Eli. I told him he didn't have to come with us, but he insisted he needed to get away from home for a few days. Giuse, I talked to Yamaguchi, and he's willing to talk to you face to face, but there's a problem I think we should address... his brother—."
