In the city of New York, I, Christine Knight, dress as a boy named Richard Knight to hide the fact that I'm a girl. I have always lived alone when my mother died after my 13th birthday and I never knew my father. But when I come home from hanging out with my friends, I was suddenly kidnapped by men in black suits. After I regained consciousness I find out that I have a father, but not just any father, a father who is the head of a legendary mafia group, the White Dragons. My father appointed a bodyguard, Jason Adams, to protect me. But how can I accept the fact that I'm now part of the mafia, and can I handle the pain, hardships, and destiny of being the "mafia princess"? I know, I know. Worst. Plot. Ever. But hey, that's all I got. Don't judge me. I randomly update from time to time but if you want the next chapter, feel free to tell me. HOPE YOU ENJOY~~~ Also please keep in mind that this is my first story and I've created this one when I was still childish and young so expect some errors. I do not own any of the pictures I put here and details such as names are all coincidence. I only own this story.
