Adriano~ 

"Where are you right now?" I asked my voice coming out deeper as my anger grew. I got up from the bed and stared at my wife on the bed who looked utterly confused as she stared up at me. 

"We found this old house in the woods about 30 miles from the city. Its abandoned and secluded so we should be hidden for now." My son AJ informed me. I knew he didn't want to come home and endanger the whole family which was smart. 

I was proud of my son, he was turning into Mafia Boss and he didn't even know it. "Did you get a good look at those men?" I inquired walking towards the window in the room that overlooked the fields. 

"Yea, they were obviously Mafia men. You could smell them from a mile away, they weren't too hidden." He said with a scoff. I shook my head "I will find out who they are, right now you stay with where you are and you boys keep your sisters safe. I will check on you guys in a couple of hours. Call me if anything happens." I commanded. 

"We got it dad." I heard Damien say. "I'm serious, you call me. I'm not fucking around." I barked out. "Yea we will." AJ said, and hung up the phone. I looked at my phone and wanted to throw it across the room, but unfortunately I needed it right now.

AJ is as stubborn as I am. He seemed to get every fucking attribute from me and that's how I knew if something else did happen he wouldn't call me first. "What's going on Adriano?" I heard my wifes scared voice ask. I turned around and looked at her as she stood about 5 feet away from me, her arm wrapped around her. 

I huffed and stared straight into her brown eyes. I walked up to her pulling her to me. "The kids were followed by the Italian Mafia. They are in an abandoned house, and trying to stay hidden for now. I know you are worried, but I need you to stay calm for the rest of the kids. I know you can mio amore." 

Her hands flew to her mouth as her brows eyes pooled with tears. She tried to step away but I didn't let go. I wouldn't let go. "How could you let this happen? I thought you said everything was clear." She accused through her tears. 

I rubbed her back kissing the top of her head. I made her look up at me "Someone double crossed me, and I have to go deal with whoever this person is. I need you to stay here and be strong. The kids are going to be fine, all that training they went through will finally be put to use." 

She nodded slightly and hugged me tighter "Remind them you are the Capo di Capi." She mumbles before giving me a chaste and stepping away. I smiled at her and walked out the room. I called the guys to meet me in my office. 

"What are we gonna do?" Giovanni asked me in my office. They and the girls knew what was going on. "We are going to leave the Basilio council alone. They have their men on our children. We will deal with them firsthand." I informed.

"How do we know where they are? You said they lost them." Matteo asked following me out the office and downstairs.

"No they said they blew their tires out, meaning they couldn't have gotten too far. We have surveillance access everywhere in Turin. If someone came to pick them up we can follow them."

"Shouldn't we be making sure our kids are safe first." Giovanni asked as we managed to slip out the door undetected by any of our other kids.

I stopped and turned around, my face pointed and hard. I stand in front of him and say "Don't you think I would make sure they were okay. They can handle themselves, right now we need to find the motherfucker who wanted their heads." I said through gritted teeth, strangling my anger to keep it underneath everything.
