Blood War (The Don Sequel)

Dario POV

"I wanted a chance to meet the man who married my daughter. Excuse my methods though, I knew you might not be too willing to meet so I took matters into my own hands."

"A bit extreme don't you think?"

"You think so?"

"My driver is dead."

"That's unfortunate but I imagine he isn't the only driver at your disposal. He will be replaced within the next business hour I'm certain."

"Where the fuck is my wife?"

"She's safe if that's what you're getting at. I wouldn't dare harm her in any way. You on the other hand can't say the same and for that reason only I could kill you right this second."

"I must have heard incorrectly because threatening me wouldn't be in your best interest."

"You're way past the boundaries of your safety net. This isn't Italy it's Mexico and you think I should fear you Romano? A woman like me doesn't get to this position by fearing weak men-

"Weak?"

"Only weak men abuse women. No matter how much muscle you have or how good you are with a gun or any weapon for that matter, an abuser will always be the weakest of people. I despise them."

"Let me get this straight. You met your daughter all about ten seconds ago, now you're threatening me because you've learned about our past issues? You call me weak and yet you abandoned your child without a care in the world. Having a child somewhere in the world while you're raising an empire and getting rich was pretty selfish of you as a mother. If I am weak, what does that make you?"

"I don't know if you're brave or stupid for speaking to me the way that you do."

"A man like me doesn't get to where he is by being stupid." I threw her words right back at her.

She began laughing hysterically as if that was the funniest thing ever. "You amuse me Romano you do. Now don't get me wrong I dislike you but killing you isn't in my best interest at all. You have children with Kiara, right?"

"You already know the answer to that." I stated plainly.

"Sí and I know what it's like growing up without a father. I won't do that to my grandchildren." I scoffed at her words. The audacity of this woman. Now she is claiming the title of grandmother to children she never met.

"I have a business proposal for you Romano and I'd like us to have a discussion on that before you see your wife—

"See my wife? I'm here to bring her home."

"Does she know that?"

"No and what of it?"

"She is just getting familiar with her roots I doubt she is in a hurry to leave is all."

"I don't trust you as far as I can throw you Mendoza. I won't be giving Kiara a choice in the matter."

"Typical men, always believe they can control a woman. If Kiara has the Mendoza blood coursing through her veins I reckon that conversation won't be an easy one." She smirked

"As I stated I won't be giving her a choice." I repeated and her little smile fell.

"Very well, today is a terrible day to talk business so until I am ready for you, please accept my humble hospitality."

"Hospitality?"

"I shall see you in a few days Romano." She smiled and before I could react something was sprayed in my face. I let my guard down. These fucking Mexicans.
