only for his Queen

chapter 5

Astrid POV
Yesterday with Steph was hella fun!We went to the gym and she learned a lot. Honestly she just needed someone to take her seriously, and not mess with her. Today I decided to wear a cute dress. I know my clothes are everywhere. Well it depends on my mood. Plus i have something planned for tonight. I'm going to a party. Hehehe. But my dress is a nice red dress that reaches my knees. Paired with small black heels.
Going through school I talked to the guys more. Nothing important. But i learned that their leader is out of town but is expected back tonight. Fun right? No.. Just another gang leader to add to the list of annoyances .
Either way school went by fast, Steph got along with the guys and now we are at the mansion. I have 3 meetings to attend to.
       I walk into the first meeting and it's with The Irish mob leader, the man who supplies most of the mafias guns.
"Sean Sullivan, nice to finally meet you." I say, and shake his hand. "So you are the Queen of the Mafia." He says looking me up and down. "Yes." I reply simply. "Well Ms. Black im glad to meet you. Im sure we can keep the business deal that I made with your grandfather." He says, hope in his voice. "You know.." I start and watch the hope drain from his eyes. "My grandfather was actually going to turn you down when you offered years ago. But he had came to me and asked me what I thought." His eyes widen, then he looks to Jared. Jared nodded. "Now since no issues have came from this deal, im going to keep it." His eyes lit up and he let out a breath. I chuckled, "Thought you were going to kill the deal. The mafias are our biggest deal." He says. All i do is nod. "Is there anything else we need to discuss? Im sure each mafia has their individual pick up dates, times and places already set." I ask. He nods his head, "no ma'am all that was to be discussed was the deal." He says. His voice tight. He thinks he is about to be set free. "Really? You see I was hoping you would tell me yourself." Sadness filled my eyes. "It seems that one of your men... Has tried to tell someone of our movements." I finish. His eyes widen. "Yes ma'am. I was hoping to take care of it when I get home. One of our newest... He was offered... Much more than he gets right now, to give the information to a rising gang." His voice laced with sadness, his Irish accent thick. "Ok... You take care of your man.. We will take care of the gang. Whats the name again?" I ask making sure he wont flake on us. Hope once again flooded his eyes. "Silent killers." He says. Good. Nodding my head I excuse him. Once hes out I look at Jared. "I want the entire gang dead." My voice cold as ice. He nods his head and one of his men leave. Coming back a few minutes later right after the cartel, Alesaandro Moretti. "A few hours and the problem will be resolved." Jared says. "Good." I reply, not taking my cold eyes off the cartel. They supply most of our drugs. You see, the less suppliers the less people to keep track of. "Mr. Moretti, how are you today?" I ask. "Im good Ms. Black. It is nice to finally meet the Queen of the Mafia." He Replies. "I'm guessing you have a issue with a female in the head chair?" I ask. It takes him a second to reply. "Well... Its just.. Not in our... Traditions... To have a female in charge." He says making sure to word it just right.
A smirk finds it ways to my face. "Then its a good thing that I dont follow traditions." I say leaning forward. "Right." He says. "So im going to keep the business we have with the cartel. I like you guys. Plus there hasnt been any issues between us." I say. And honestly i haven't heard of any.
I watch as he sits up. "Actually ma'am it seems as if something has came up." What does he mean? I sit back in my chair. "What do you mean?" I ask, but it practically comes out as a growl. "Well it seems as if one of your men has tried to kill mine." My eyes go wide and then go cold. I turn to look are Jared and he is the same. "Which man?" I grit out. I stand up and begin to walk out. "Men! downstairs!" I yelled, my voice echos all through out the mansion. Walking down the stairs with Moretti behind me and Steph beside me. "Outside." I hiss. Everyone of my men were outside. "Now.. Which one.. Decided to go again the treaty?" I grit out. Trying not to take my anger out on Moretti. But he doesnt speak. I turn to were he is looking and one of them has their head down and back to me. "Him?" I ask. "Yes." He says. Hmm. "Hey you! Turn around!" I yell. "Now why would you be turned around? He was looking at the guy beside you. Right?" I say glancing back, but before he could say anything I said, "right." Finalizing it. The man visibly relaxes. I pull grandfathers gun out from my waist, where it is every day. I point it at the man beside the one who was actually guilty. "You shouldnt have disobeyed me." I say shaking my head. I quickly moved my gun and shot the guilty one in the head. The other guy almost falls. "Im sorry, but i wanted to fuck with him." I apologise. He nods to me and i dismiss them.
Going back to moretti, "so is there any more issues?" I ask. He shakes his head no. "Anything else needed to be discussed?" I ask again. He again shakes his head. "Ok have a nice day, get him his car! Have a nice day." I finish while walking inside. "Who's next?" I ask Steph. "Actually they are on the phone now." She says handing me the phone. "Hello?" They call. "Yes?" I reply. "Hello I was supposed to have a meeting with you right now, but my pilot was late and I'm still on the plane." They explain. "Ok schedule a meeting for tomorrow. And dont miss it." I growl the last part. Handing the phone back to Stephanie, I go to my office and do paperwork. I mean I still have 2 and a half weeks till its offical and it might as well be official right now. Ughhh
"Shouldn't you be getting home?" Stephanie says popping her head in. I look at the clock and let out a string of curses as I pack my things. My poor babies have been home alone all day.
     When I have everything I need, I go outside and drive home. Soon falling asleep with the dogs laying in the bed with me.
