My brothers are right behind me as we enter our father's office. He gestures for us to sit. I take a sit across him and Alessandra sits next to me while luke and luca sit on the sofa by the corner of the office. The twins are always together in everything they do and that includes causing chaos everywhere they go.

I on the other hand am very subtle and calculative of everything I do. In this dangerous business we were raised in , you have to carry yourself a certain way to make people respect you or better Fear you. As the oldest son of the family I have to make sure I'm ruthless and cruel so that no one dares to mess with my family.

And then there's Alessandra the silent one. My brother mah be quiet but deep down inside is a monster you don't want to mess with. He lurks in the shadows and you'll never see him coming. And even though our father always gets the last word, we are our own people.

"As you all know, the Vasconti's have been lurking in our territory.." my father begins with his thick Italian eccent that commands attention and immediately we all focus on the man. "They have been messing with our shipments and the word in street is they are trying to take our territory " he leans back in his chair and continues "That of course means we have traitors within our organization or they wouldn't know the schedules of our shipments "

"Last I checked Billy was handling the shipment schedules and I don't think he would betray us..he's been working with us for 10yrs ,he wouldn't be that stupid " I say tapping my finger on the table. "I also don't think it's him" father says as he pours whisky on his glass,  "luke and luca I need you to get to the bottom of this and as for you Alessandra, arrange more security for every shipments from now on". They all agree .

I look at him waiting for him to assign something to me and he justs looks me in the eye and sips his whisky. "Anything you want to say to me father?" He puts his glass down and says " yes actually. We may need to strengthen our alliances if we are going to go to war with the Vasconti's ". I clench my teeths as I know exactly where this is going. "I've already spoken to Mr Vega and he is willing to give you his daughter's hand in marriage "

I feel my blood rushing as anger radiates inside my body. I knew this was going to happen eventually ,I'm not one for Disire of romantic love but marrying someone you don't know definitely makes me anxious. And I know there's no point in defying my father cause at the end of the day he's right we need help in oder to completely get rid of the Vasconti's.

So I swallow my pride and agree to this marriage. He releases his breath and says "Good. I'll let Mr Vega know so we can arrange some family events to get to know each other ". I just nod my head in agreement. My father ends the meeting and dismisses us
