New York these days is no longer a safe city, crawling with mafias in every corner, hiding the most powerful mafias in the US, if not the whole world...
Mariella Cortez, owner of The Cortez Mafia (TCM), which was inherited to her by her father, Sand...
- hola! - 3rd person POV - TW: small mentions of torturing.
In the Cortez Mansion living room sits Natasha, awaiting the person who is gonna be taking her to her cell. And Ella enters 10 minutes after Mariella left.
"Hello Ms. Romanoff-"
"Natasha's fine"
"Ok Natasha, I'm Ella Maria, you can call me Ella" she extends her hand to Natasha.
"Nice to meet you Ella" Natasha shakes her hand. "Ok no- you know what, just call me El" Ella grimaces at the use of her full first name.
"Well in that case, just call me nat" Natasha gives a small smile.
"Ok nat, do you want something to eat?"
"Eating something would be great as I haven't eaten anything today"
"Well then, follow me" Ella gestures for Natasha to follow her. So nat stands up and follows her into a huge modern black kitchen.

Natasha sits at the kitchen island while Ella opens her phone.
"Is pizza ok?"
"Pizza's great'
"Well then, what type would you like?"
"Margherita"
"Ok one sec, *calls a guard* I want you to go to Domino's and get one large Margherita pizza and one large Ranch Sauce pizza, I want them here in half an hour". Ella ends the call and then looks at nat.
"I know you're not happy that you're here, but trust me Yoosh is treating you better than any hostage she has taken".
"Why do you call Mariella Yoosh?".
Ella laughs while recalling the memory and says, "when she was young, I would take care of her. I tried to let her say her name, which was a challenge. So one day I was still trying where all of a sudden she says Yoosh after I clearly called her Mariella. I did it again, and she said the same thing, I then asked her what's your name? And she said Yoosh, she only called herself that when she was young, she thought her name was Yoosh for some reason, and she wouldn't listen to anyone if they didn't call her that. She was 2 years old at that time, and now I call her that because I think it's cute, though she only allows me to call her that, one time gio called her that, and she gave him what is now a scar on his right rib" Ella starts laughing and nat joins her chuckling at the cute actions of Mariella.
"Now back to what was said earlier, she has treated you better than any hostage she has ever taken, assuming she DOES take hostages, cause it's not really her thing, she usually just kills on spot".
"And why is she treating me any differently. As far as I can remember, my dad stole from her...she wanted to kill him, but instead, she takes me hostage"
