I can't believe she beat me again.

The devils advocate is ruthless, I can't even fathom how shes so tiny, yet after laying two punches on my 6 foot 3 muscular body, I was out cold.

Fortunately, I woke up after 2 minutes and found my younger brother Romeo glaring daggers towards her.

Romeo and i are the only ones who usually fight here, are other brothers tag along every now and again to watch, but me and Rome are the only ones who book fights.

These past few weeks it's been mine and Romes mission to beat the devils advocate, but i just can't. What I hate even more than loosing is not knowing who she is.

I don't want to admit it, but I envy her— she's strong and clearly fearless.

My oldest brother Allesi who is the don of the Italian mafia, has been trying to get her to join our mafia as an assassin for years now.

We gave up trying after she went off the grid around 2 years ago for a year and then suddenly reappeared.

I can't blame her, along with my oldest brother, most mafia leaders want her to join there mafias, its incredible how many people are practicing begging for her help.

I headed over to where Rome was stood next to the bar, "Can we leave? she left, we ain't catching her."

He looks at me for a moment before nodding, Romeo doesn't say much to most of the time, it really depends on who he's with.

He used to be a bubbly kid from what I remember, there's only a year between us, but I still remember the day everything changed, for all of us.

The day that bitch took are principessa.

God, just thinking about her makes me sad and I don't get sad, I'm the guy who shoots and burns shit, I don't do emotions, but for my principessa I will always have a soft spot for her.

Kaylee was Romeo and Levi's triplet, also our only girl born into the family in six generations. But she was kidnapped in the middle of the night by are bitch of a mother.

Allesi hasn't given up looking for her, even after dad passed away. We all do what we can, but like dad said when was alive 'it's like she disappeared off the end of the earth' there's not a trace of her, not a single clue, sometimes I hate to think it, but I think she's dead.

Im brought out my thoughts as we approach the car to drive back to the penthouse here in LA, I look over to my left when I hear a motor rev, my attention will always goes to a motorbike.

I noticed the devils advocate getting on her bike outside the McDonalds across the road, but then she speeds off.

I look over to Rome, we both nod, getting in the car and follow her.

We try are best to be as suttle as we possibly can, and thankfully she doesn't notice, though I think it's because shes drunk.

How fucking stupid, drinking and driving, really?

When the devils advocate disappeared 2 years ago, no one knew what happened to her, but one day she just returned more ruthless and evil, not giving a care in the world.

Me and Rome pulled to a stop as she's pulled into a house or should I say mansion, I mean not to brag but are house is definitely bigger but this is still a mansion.

I observe the guards stood outside, just like are house, she had armed guards and cameras.

Who the fuck is this girl?

"Who is she to have all this shit, we're fucking competing with her." Romeo spat from beside me.

Jealousy doesn't look good on you brother.

I chucked, shaking my head, "Do you want to have a sleepover in car and find out?" I smirked.

Rome nods his head eagerly, this brings me back to the times we used to sneak into dad's car, when we were kids and have a sleepovers in the backseats.

It was our tradition but we stopped after a while, Cole, our older brother, caught onto our late night sleepovers after he came home from a nightshift at the hospital and saw us in the car.

Being the mother hen he is, gave us a talk about hypothermia and all that boring stuff.

Rome moved the car so it's in the shadows and can't be seen, but so we still have a clear visual of her house.

Me and Rome have always been close, of course he's closest with his triplet Levi, but Levi can be a goofball sometimes which is the total opposite to Romeo.

I have a twin as well, his names Malian or Mal as we call him, he's a smarty pants like Cole. Mal is the best hacker in our mafia, he's always been good with technology.

Malian and I are also close like Romeo and Levi. We tell each other everything, but we tend to piss each other off a lot.

but that's just brotherhood right?

There's a lot of us in are family, my cousins-brothers are in London staying with the British mafia don for business, my best friend Hunter, is the heir but he lives with us back in Italy.

Most mafia heirs live in Italy with us, we're all close friends but due to the Russian mafia threatening everyone, all the mafias under the Italian alliance are protected by us, since we're the strongest and most powerful mafia.

My brothers and our cousins all share the last name, Valentino. We've lived together are whole lives, so it just sounds right to call them our brothers even if people think it's obserd to have 24 brothers.

I heard soft snoring come from Romeo beside me, taking that as my que to also sleep, I pulled a blanket out from the trunk and layed back.
