2022-07-27 08:27:19"why do the soldiers do all the dirty work?" Bianca asked her uncle Luigi. it was forty five minutes after eight in the morning and her uncle showed her around the warehouse behind their house. even after all her uncle Luigi taught her yesterday, her mom still insisted on her learning afresh today again. her mom had suddenly turned to a disciplinarian since her dad's death. she guessed the passing of her father was still taking its toll on her mom.
"they have the lowest ranks in all mafia families" answered her uncle Luigi
"oh" she exclaimed "what about the capos?" she asked
"they have a higher rank than the soldiers" he said "they are assigned to take care of the soldiers"
"how?" she didn't understand
"each capo is assigned a particular amount of soldiers, to control and give them orders " her uncle explained
"are the soldiers usually bigger than the capos?" she asked
"it isn't always like that" he said "in most cases, yes"
so mafia families were all about hierarchy? this was a new experience. she squealed mentally, she liked learning new things
"so when new people are initiated into the mafia, what rank will they start from?" she asked
"that depends on the boss" he then clarified "that depends on you, Bianca"
she gulped. she'd forgotten why she was learning all these in the first place, that she was learning to be don of. the mafia. since her mom was so serious about this whole family thing, couldn't her mom be the boss instead of her? maybe her mom had a reason for training her to be a boss. maybe it was her destiny.
"but normally, when a group of potential mobsters get newly inducted into the mafia, they become soldiers" her uncle Luigi explained further
"what then will happen to the soldiers who were already in the mafia?" an intrigued Bianca asked
"some of them get promoted to capos, according to their performance " he said "the higher the rank, the higher the pay"
"capos can't get promoted?"
"yes" he said " the next rank after the capo is the underboss"
"how does the underboss become the underboss" she asked "how did you become the underboss?"
"your dad trusted me" he said to her "look, Bianca, everything depends on you. whichever way you bend the rules is okay. you're the don now, the mafia don chooses the person he or she trusts the most to be his or her right hand man " he explained.
her uncle Luigi said it like she was going to be a boss right now. she wasn't ready to be a boss, she wasn't sure if she could will herself to order any one around.
not just yet.
"and finally, we'll talk about our mafia associates" said her uncle
"what about them?"
"they aren't members of our family, but they help us get bad stuff done" he said
"they can be in form of lawyers, officers, politicians and you know the rest"
"oh!" was all she could manage. this business was truly a complex one, but it was her family's legacy.
"why does the mafia make up of a family? the soldiers aren't my family members?"
"it's been called that for generations now. I don't know, Bianca, the name 'family' traces back to the generation before us" he explained.
"I see" she said
"so Bianca, that's all for today, we'll continue tomorrow" he said
"okay, thanks Zu"
"my pleasure " he said and left her.
she stood in the warehouse and continued looking at the place as her uncle gave orders around.
Her phone suddenly rang and she picked it.
"hi babe" it was Matt. her darned ex boyfriend who didn't care to comfort her when her dad died.
"what do you want?"
"I miss you, Bianca, that's why I called"
"you didn't miss me all this time? you didn't miss me when my dad died?" she asked, her voice laced with sarcasm.
"I figured you weren't lying to me" he said with a low voice
"okay. look Matt, I've got things to do with---"
"I'm sorry babe, I admit I was a jerk..."
"a total jerk" she interjected in a sour tone
"I'm sorry I didn't call when I heard about your dad's death. I felt betrayed because I thought you were cheating on me" he gushed "Kim told me everything" she said
"how convenient for you to believe Kim when she tells you the truth but you disbelieve me when I tell you the truth"
"I'm truly sorry. I---"
"you dumped me on the day I heard about my dad's death" she said as tears well up in her eyes " you couldn't even wait...."
"Bianca let me---"
"how could you date me for over seven months and harbor a feeling of distrust through out our relationship?"
"I really do love you. I couldn't think straight after we broke up" he said "I wanted to reach out to you but then I heard you've gone back to Italy"
"yes, Matt" she firmly said " the world doesn't revolve around you. my dad died!" that realisation still pained her soul. she wished for the thousandth time that her dad was here with her.
"let me make it up to you" he offered
"you left me when I fucking needed you! what could you possibly do to make up for that?"
"I want to see you "
Bianca scoffed. how did he plan to do that?
"I'm not at Los Angeles, Matt " she told him
"I know. I want to travel to Italy to see you"
"I don't know, Matt"
"all I need is a yes from you, then I'll be there before you know it"
she didn't know what to say. a part of her still wasn't over her ex boyfriend and she wanted to see him. but then she thought about Lorenzo. she didn't know where she was going with him and she didn't care. she wanted to continue to hang out with him. she wanted to continue seeing him and getting to know him. she didn't crave Matt's company the way she craved Lorenzo's. she had to choose between the both of them.
"we are over, Matt" she said to him "you made that clear when you accused and dumped me "
"please let me make it up to you "
"you should have said this when the pain of losing my dad was heavy on me" she said, recalling the anguish she felt "when I suffered so badly and I needed someone... you should have told me this when I still loved you"
there was silence at the other end of the line. Matt finally said
"there's someone else right?"
"that shouldn't be your problem, considering the fact that you are now my ex" she said in an icy tone.
"don't call me again Matt" she hissed "and I don't want you to visit me"
she disconnected the call as
she made her way out of the warehouse. it was twelve o clock now and her mom wasn't at home. she had to get ready to meet up with Lorenzo.

Luke was busy with work in his office when he heard from his secretary that he has a visitor.He wondered who the person was because he wasn't expecting anyone."Tell the person to come in" he said to his secretary and the person came into his office.Lo and behold it was Rachel. She was holding a bouquet on one hand and a very small box on the other hand."What is it you want Rachel? Can't you see me after work?" He asked her curtly"No Luke, my feelings for you can't wait" she said as dropped the bouquet on his desk and went down on her knees"Will you marry me Luke Garfield?" She askedLuke got up from his seat perplexed"You must be joking!" He bit out"No Luke, I just thought I'd propose since you weren't doing so. We can start a family. Me, you and our unborn baby""You're batshit crazy if you think I'd start a family with you when I already have one with Allie" he barked. "Don't feel too privileged and hopeful because I allowed you to stay in my house. I just kept you there bec

Rachel knew it had been long since she visited Bennett but she couldn't stop herself today. Luke ate her food over Allie's.She was excited because she was making headway. Soon enough, after a little manipulation, Luke would make her his wife and do away with Allie.She couldn't wait!She drove to Bennett's house to share the good news with him."Bennett!" She began cheerfully after he opened the door for her"Luke ate my food over Allie's. He likes my food! I'm making headway...""Really?" He asked, happy too"Yes!" She squealedBennett suddenly stopped cheering with her, he mused instead"You want him to marry you, right?" He asked"Obviously" Rachel replied"Why don't you propose to him instead? He might be reluctant to pop the question because of Allie but now you've told him that you're carrying his child, he'll have no choice than to say yes. Plus he likes your food which means that his feelings for you are probably coming back" Bennett said. "so why don't you make the first mov

Luke had just been called to the office for an important meeting. It was impromptu but that was the nature of his job.He worried a bit about Allie and didn't want her bothering about Rachel. He was going to take care of that.After having a fantastic orgasm, he dressed up again for work as he watched Allie sleep.He knew she was still conscious and wasn't in a deep sleep. He figured he would only feel at ease if she slept soundly."Go to sleep now, Allie." He mumbled softly ‘Mmm.’ She felt her eyelids growing heavy, as sleepy as if someone had slipped her a narcotic. Was it the absence of fear or because Luke was now stroking her hair in that reassuring and rhythmical way which made her feel so safe and secure?‘That’s nice,’ she murmured.‘Is it?’ he questioned thickly. Was he crazy? Or was she being a little less innocent than he thought?‘Mmm.’ Instinctively, she wriggled towards him, colliding with the warmth of his body. So was that. Oh, heavens—did she forget how good he felt?
chapter 105
Her darkly virile lover taking his willing captive off to experience the perfect pleasures of his body. Wasn’t that the stuff of every woman’s secret dream—to be mastered and dominated by such a powerful man?She shook her head as he slipped the garment from his broad, bare shoulders and let it flutter to the floor like the white flag of surrender—except she knew that he didn’t have a surrendering bone in his body.Allie saw him give a mocking wince as he slowly slid the zip of his trousers down and it said much for his self-possession and steely control that still he did not hurry it, despite the very obvious evidence of his arousal.How could he possibly look both elegant and sexy as he removed his trousers and draped them over the back of a chair? His feet were bare, so all that remained were the silk boxer shorts which gave his body the look of a taut and supremely fit athlete. He kicked them off and for a moment just stood before her—completely naked and thrillingly aroused—his e

She knew he loved her hair. He had told her that the first time she’d met him—he’d said it was the colour of the setting sun before the night sky swallowed it up, whole. And when he had said it, he had looked as if he would like to swallow her up whole.Hadn’t it been his almost poetic way with words which had disarmed her just as much as the dark, good looks and the hard, lean body? The idea that a man could be the embodiment of all that was masculine and yet be unafraid to express himself in the way which would make a woman melt?But hadn’t that just been part of his well-practised seduction technique? How long had it been since he’d told her that her eyes were like the violet-blue flowers which scrambled in among the arid rocks and bloomed during a spring? Or that her skin was pure cream, and that was why he liked to lick it?She shivered. Pride told her she should not strip for him and yet she knew that the evening would start off badly if she started playing games by refusing.Pe
