The Heiress of The Mafia

Chapter 1 - The Beginning

     Here we are deciding who I should shoot, my father, or the boy I was supposed to kill, but instead fell in love with. 

    My name is Valkyrie Korolyov, heir to the Korolyov Mafia, my father was seen as incompetent on multiple occasions. He failed to fill the requirements to become the don, along with the ability to produce a competent son. So instead, my Babooshka, the current Godmother of the Korolyov Mafia, chose me as the heir to the family business. I have two brothers, my older brother Valravn took after mother, he was never a fighter, and my little brother Victor, he never knew a loving mother like me and Valravn. Our mother, Lady Vestia Korolyov, was one of the most well-known business women and models, known throughout the world, she died giving birth to Victor. Our father, Nikandr Korolyov, underboss and one of the most ruthless killers in the Korolyov Mafia, saved our mother when they were younger and ended up falling in love. Although, when she died, he lost himself a bit, this didn't please Babooshka, it meant our father was weak. She evaluated Valravn soon after mothers funeral, she deemed him weak and unworthy of being heir. A few months later, when I was in primary school, I lost my temper, causing half of my class to have bloody noses and black eyes, crying for their mothers. This made Babooshka proud and after evaluating me, she deemed me the heir of the Korolyov Mafia. I was immediately taken out of school and was given expensive, private education and all of my free time was spent training, fighting, becoming proper and malicious. 

    Having expensive education and the majority of my hobbies including violence, I saw myself superior to many people. I treated many of the organizations underlings like peasants, my brother always asked me to tone it down and be nicer, but I didn't care about anyone else and was only nice to my brothers. Babooshka took pride in my merciless personality and sky shot ego. She always told me I was born to be the next head of the organization, she took me on many jobs, to get me familiar with the neighbouring organizations. She'd often send me on jobs, negotiations with some lower class organizations, they would think because I'm some girl that came alone, that they could easily take me out, when I came home, I'd often come covered in their blood. I, alone, made a name for the Korolyov Mafia here in America, deeming it the most well-known yet feared Mafia of the public. Eventually on the outskirts of the city, somewhere in the forest, someone opened an Elite Academy, for people like me, heir, mafia members, elitists, killers. Originally, it was only supposed to be just Valravn who was enrolled, Babooshka thought it would help put some fight into him. I didn't like that idea, too many people could do something to him to get to me. Astonishingly, I convinced Babooshka to enroll me, she saw it as in opportunity to get to know the other Mafia heirs, along with threaten some. I didn't mind, as long as I could protect Valravn. Although upon looking through the school files, it came to my realization that I was the only female student, for now I hope. This would bring a lot of attention to me. 

    This I hated, quite a lot, though, this was Babooska's plan all along, she thought it would enable the older brother instinct to kick start in Valravn, and bring some fight out in him. Although I must say I am impressed, it seems like it is working, on the drive to school he seemed quite tense. 

   I chuckled, fixing my guns and knives into their holsters, hiding them with the uniform's jumper. He sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose, annoyed at Babooshka's actions and plans. He tugged at his tie, "How could Babooshka do this? I swear, if anyone, tries to lay a hand on you, they'll have to go through me." He stated fixing his jumper, and tightening his hair into his hair tie. 

   I pulled my hair into my hair tie, "I admire the determination brother, but I think I will be the one that anyone tries to go through." I replied, opening my book to continue the chapter.

   He huffed, "But sister, these guys-" I put my hand up to his face, signaling for his silence. "Brother, I will handle them. Do not become someone you are not, understood?" I stated, glaring at him from the side. He tightened his lips and nodded, returning his gaze to the front. I sighed and continued reading, the rest of the drive was silent, we arrived at the academy not long after.
