He was dangerous and I knew it.
Screaming filled the air. Felix was working him over pretty good. Drugs was a dirty business, even more so when people like Mr. Giuseppe wanted to up the prices on my product. And then to think by telling me that only half of it sold. Toro merda. Of course it would get back to me that he was cheating me. Especially when some of my associates get wind that some of their customers are getting there coke at a cheaper price. All the screaming was getting to my head.
"Fermo." I tell Felix when I start to see him getting too excited. The sight of blood and sounds of pain was enough to get him to really get into it. I didn't need that. I need to make him an example of what happens when I am crossed. Sometime people need to be reminded of who I was and what I was capable of. In this case I was capable of a lot of pain. Passing Felix a towel, I step in.
"We seem to be having some conflict here, Mr. Giuseppe. It seems you think that over selling my product and lying about it, to me." I was calm on the outside, but on the inside I was furious. There was no way his small mind had come up with this plan it was too drawn out. We found offshore bank accounts with my money in them, there was only two people that could put money in or out of it. One of them was hanging in my warehouse. The other did not exist. Seriously the name was fake and lead to nowhere. No one had been putting money in or out of it. So that meant he had a partner or a boss in charge of this little scheme.
"I-I don't know nothing. I swear! I swear! I don't know nothing!" His eyes were shaking. I wanted to laugh. He was scared, trying to find a way out of this hole he dug for himself. Looking to me as if I was the the rope ladder sent down from the heavens by St. Andrew himself. Except I wasn't a rope ladder I was just a shovel, ready to fill in the hole with this rifiuti in it. I walked around his chair. placing my hand on his shoulder. I knew how these men saw me. I was either the one to save them or the one to put them in the grave. If crossed, I'd make sure the trip to the cemetery was a long and painful one.
"Marco, can I call you Marco?" I smiled a bit.
"We both know how this will end." He began saying no over and over, bubblering like the idiot he was. "It's only a matter of if your family will soon join you or not." That was the straw that broke the camel's back. He was ready to offer up anything I wanted to know. It didn't matter if his own mother were the one who told him to do this, he would sell her out if it meant his children would live.
"Era aro! Mi ha detto come i prezzi dei farmaci e dove li potrei vendere." Smiling, I pulled away from him and motioned for Felix to carry on with his job. He nods his head to me and I take my leave knowing that things are done here.
Figlio di puttana. The snake was at it again. Trying to be all buddy buddy with me while pulling the rug from under me. This was only one of the things I caught his hand in. He also was the mystery tip the police got about two weeks ago to raid one of my warehouses. Add that to the shipment that was late last month and I've found myself a snake in my henhouse. He was calling for war and I would be sure to give it to him that and more. I walked back into my office and kicked my feet up.
Things needed to be done. First things first, my father must be informed. He was the one with official power since I wasn't married yet. I was under him as far as the other families knew because of that fact. Once I was married, all the power would be in my is why Isabella is a priority at the moment. She was a means to an end. A way of moving up in rank that would look good on my arm and underneath me. She didn't know it yet but she was mine. Tonight would prove that to her. I had called her this afternoon just to make sure she knew that no was not an answer she could give me. Ever. It was part of me grooming her for her role as my wife. Now I just had to get her to understand that no one was allowed to have her, any part of her but me. She was a fighter underneath it all and that was important. I needed her to be like me. A force to be reckoned with and I needed her to accept that about me aswell as herself.

She was perfect. And all mine.
I looked at myself in the mirror one more time. Angela had done it again. I looked amazing. This dark blue dress made my skin look flawless. My hair was in an updo that had too many bobbing pins for me to count. She kept the makeup light stating that my natural beauty would shine through. I guess she was right. I knew I was attractive, but this beautiful? Never thought I could look this good since my awkward stage in high school with braces, and acne. But here I was ready to walk out my apartment and on a date with the Edward Masen, life sure has a funny way of panning out doesn't it?
I took the elevator down to the lobby. What met me was the man himself. In a black suit, silver tie and hair looking like his hands had just ran through it. He smiled at me and walked to meet me. My eyes on his, I felt myself moving towards him. Something in this man sings to me. It draws me in, calling me to come closer. I stop for a second. How can I feel like this? Almost like a force beyond my reasoning is pulling me. I don't think it's a good thing yet.
"Well aren't you more lovely than the first night I saw you?" His voice brought me out of the trance. "Thank you." I felt the slight blush on my cheeks but I had to say something. "You're not so bad yourself. Mr. Masen." My smile must have threw him off. He blinked at me then the look in his eyes changed. There was something there, something almost questioning who I was at my core. I would show him that part sooner or later. Until then I would be the girl he would always remember.
