A long time ago there were 3 brothers, Rozario, Santiago and Valentino. Their last name is unknown but the fact that they were related is, well, even then this was kept a secret from the world.
All 3 brothers wanted the same thing: Power, wealth and respect.
Now to attain these things were extremely hard, especially if like them you were born in poverty.
So they made a promise, whoever managed to get the power they wanted first, to that brother they would promise to serve and help, their entire bloodline would serve the one brothers and be used as disposable servants.
You can probably guess which brother was victorious, and which of the other 2 were not if I told you that the person who leads the entire Mafia was tyrant named Leo Santiago.
The Santiago's now rule more then half of the world. The world is in their hands.

3 years later...
I used to think nothing could happen in 3 years, until it did.
My name is Karma Paige Valentino. 3 years ago my oldest brother, Ace, asked if I would take over the Spanish-American mafia at the age of 19, and 3 years ago... I did just that.
Not only do I rule my mafia, I rule the world. There isn't one person who hasn't heard of me, and yet I am a mystery to most.
Of course, Joey Theodore De Luca was by my side through all of it, but ever since... well... ever since you-know-what, he has become closed off.
Even though we are not married, he has still been named 'The King of the underworld' and I the Queen.
