James' POV
I continued to punch and punch the guy, gripping on the collar of his shirt so he doesn't fall until he became unconscious, blood spitting from his mouth and on to my plain white shirt. Great! now I'm probably gonna have to burn this shirt. I loosened my gripped from his collar shirt and he dropped to the ground. I didn't need to finish him off because I know he wasn't going to make it with that bullet in his stomach I gave him a minute ago.
'BANG'
Alessio's gun went, shooting the filthy idiot who was lying on the ground, blood sputtering everywhere. I looked around and all the four guys were dead. I let out a sigh, good thing we didn't have to clean this up because nobody ever comes around here since this was a pretty dangerous street, especially this specific one and if there was a gunshot coming from here nobody would say anything.
Suddenly there was a loud scream coming from behind the big garbage bin. I heard a gasp before a girl appeared, jumping up from behind the garbage bin and covering her mouth with her hands, hoping that nobody heard her. But it was too late, both Alessio's and my attention were on the her. She was staring at us in shock, her eyes went across from me to Ace then the dead bodies.
Dammit! I thought nobody would ever be stupid enough to come around here. The girl was about 5'8 with wavy brown hair and golden brown eyes, she looked about a few years younger than me and there was something familiar about her, I just couldn't remember what. We stared at each other probably for about 10 seconds until Alessio moved towards her. Before he could take a second step she turned and ran.
She was pretty stupid, did she really think she could outrun two guys with guns who practically just slaughtered 4 idiots?
But I must admit she looked pretty hot running in those heels, she didn't get very far though, Alessio caught up with her easily and before she could exit the street corner, he grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her back towards him. She kept struggling and yelling for help but it was no use, Alessio was no doubt stronger than her, like a lion catching a mouse.
I kind of felt bad for this girl, now that she just witnessed what we did, there was no way we could let her go but then again, she shouldn't have come around here, even a hobo would know better than to crash around here.
Alessio grabbed a cloth from his pocket and covered it over the girl's mouth to shut her up. It was drugged so pretty soon she would black out, but it looked like she figured it out and held her breath and kept struggling. Alessio's kept tightening the cloth around her mouth and nose, and in 3 seconds she dropped. The drugs were pretty strong it would be a good few hours before she wakes up again.
Alessio carried her in his arms and whispered something to her, I couldn't work out what it was, then he made his way towards me.
"Let's go" he said calmly as he walked past me towards the car.
I nodded and followed him. He slowly laid the girl down in the backseat then shut the door and made his way to the driver seat. I sat in the front seat, as the car began to sped off.
"what are you gonna do with her boss? She's an innocent girl who was at the wrong place at the wrong time so we can't exactly kill her and we can't let her go either since she'll tell the police" I told him.
Even though we were in the mafia and we kill whoever and whenever we want, this girl was innocent and doesn't deserve to die, she wasn't a threat to us. Alessio may kill anyone without hesitation but he'd never kill an innocent young girl unless they worked for his enemies.
"I don't know, my only option is for her to stay with us" He said thoughtfully.
He really had no other choice, when he became the mafia leader after his father retired, he stopped human trafficking (selling girls to become sex slave).
But honestly I'm glad there's going to be a real girl around the house. The only girls that the guys and I ever brought in the house were either one-night stand desperate b*tches, hoes or gold diggers and they were all fake. This girl though, is different and I still can't help but notice something familiar about her.

Alexa's POV
It was peaceful, quiet and I didn't want to open my eyes, I felt something soft against my back. A bed? It couldn't' have possibly been mine, it was too soft to be one of the bed in my apartment.
Eventually, I heard someone's voice coming from in front of me.
"How much of it did she breathe in? She should've been awake by now" It was a guy's voice probably in his early 20's.
"I don't know, at first she tried to hold her breath, then I guess she couldn't hold it anymore and took a deep breath, breathing in a lot of the drug" Another male voice rang out, this time it was spine chilling and sexy. It was in a thick Italian accent, it made my stomach flutter.
Who are they talking about?
Then out of nowhere the incident of what happened came rushing back at me, hitting me all at once like a slap in the face. Oh my god! I quickly opened my eyes and sat up with a loud gasp escaping my mouth. I blinked a few times and looked around, I seem to be in a huge living room lying on a huge sofa while dozens of curious eyes stared down at me, there was at least about seven or eight of them in the room. Some of them were sitting on the sofa and some were standing. The scariest thing of all was that they were all guys!
'oh Sh*t' I thought to myself. Wait, did I say that out loud? Judging by the look on their faces I think I did.
I let out an ear wrenching scream and scooted over to the edge of the sofa before taking off my one my high heel boots and pointed at them. It was the only form of weapon I have.
"W-who the hell are you people? W-what do you want from me?" I shouted with a few stutters, obviously did a terrible job at hiding the fact that I was scared out of my mind.
Their eyes widened in amusement with a hint of shock but didn't move an inch, except the one that was standing in front of me, he was the same guy who was punching the life out of the other guy in the street corner.
"Whoa relax there, can you put your, err... shoe down? We're not going to hurt you" He said calmly, smiling with his hands in the air.
"HURT ME, HURT ME? I just saw you and the other guy practically slaughtered the four guys in the street corner and what's worst is that you carried guns" then the realisation struck me. They have GUNS! My face went to a shock expression.
"Oh God! You have guns!!" I dropped my shoe beside me and covered my face with my hands and said "P-please don't K- kill me" I started to shake my head.
I heard chuckling from the guy standing in front of me, I opened one eye and peeked through my finger.
"Ok, just because we have guns doesn't mean we shoot everyone we see, we're not going to hurt you or kill you. Besides if we wanted you dead we would've killed you already" He said with a smirk on his face. Was that suppose to be reassuring? because if it was he did a terrible job at it.
"oh, well in that case why am I here?" I asked
"You saw what happened, how we killed them. We can't risk you going to the police about it so you're going to have to stay here with us" he explained.
"Wait you mean as in live here? With you guys? NO WAY! What about my job? My best friend? And not to mention living with total strangers who is also criminals!" I shouted.
"You don't have a choice sweetheart. And as for your- "Just as the sexy guy who was sitting on the sofa beside me started to say, my phone rang, vibrating against my boobs.
'RING RING, ON YOU PHONE...(thunder)......... SOMEONE IS CALLING YOU'
it was my scary ringtone on my phone which was inside my bra, why there you might ask? It's because I didn't have a deep enough pocket on my jean shorts.
I took it out to see who it was
'Crystal'
