Made For Me

Chapter 25

It's Christmas Day and I, the leader of the most feared mafia, who has taken life with his bare hands and never felt remorse, am stood in a snowman onesie.

What has my life come to?

Florence bought everyone snowman onesies, I don't know what I was thinking when I thought I would be an exception, or that I'd be able to say no to her.

I tried to be dominant, I tried to stare her down the way that sends shivers through my men, but she crossed her dainty arms and popped her hips out saying something along the lines of "I wasn't asking".

And here I am, stood in my dining room waiting for the rest to come down stairs in their onesies. I look over to see Matteo, one of my close men on guard today looking me up and down while grinning.

"Don't be fooled by the outfit, I'll still shoot you between the eyes." I snapped.

He tried to wipe the grin off his face but it only lead to a burst of laughter. He was laughing at my snowman onesie and I couldn't help but laugh with him.

I walked over and slapped him on the shoulder still chuckling "I know brother, she has me wrapped round her little finger. Now let it out before she comes in, she'll be upset hearing you laugh."

He nodded still grinning. It's true I was wrapped around her but she also made me soft. Months ago I would've killed him just for looking at me wrong, and here I am now standing in my dining room looking like a giant snowman.

I remembered the reason I came down early and flagged Giana down. "Add four more settings on the table, uncle called he's making a surprise visit with my cousins."

It comes to a shock for people to find out I have family since I tell everyone I don't, only my closest men know Benny is my uncle since my father kept all his family business quiet while I was growing up. Since he died everyone presumed I was alone, but Benny has always been in the background in Chicago.

Him calling was quite a surprise especially around this time of year, I usually spend Christmas alone so he must want to talk business. My only mistake has been I forgot all about it till today. He will have to wait till tomorrow, not even family could ruin the day with Florence.

Vienna comes bowling through the door, her dark hair had been curled and makeup covered her face but like me she had her snowman onesie on. She looked me up and down and grins.

Not far behind Cole and Jessica followed through, Cole had his arm around Jess pulling her in to whisper in her ear. Whatever he said made her cheeks cherry red and as soon as she saw me she pushed him off running over to Vienna for protection. All of them wearing the onesies Florence picked out.

Cole walked over to me looking at my outfit grinning I slap him over the shoulder and grin back at him.

"I don't know what's more terrifying, you in that outfit or the tiny girl who got you in it." He shakes his head.

I can't help but laugh, she's changing me and everyone can see it.

Just as we're settling into conversation there is loud voices coming from the front door, it only means one thing, my uncles and cousins are here.

Stepping into the room they look me over twice before looking back at each other and laughing. Cole stops grinning realising he also is the butt of the joke, Vienna looks just as confused as Jessica. Another thing I forgot to do, tell her they were coming.

"Uncle B! I didn't know you were coming, if I did I would've bought you a present." Vienna shouted running over to my uncle.

Growing up my family became Vienna's and she became a little sister to me, Benny sees her as his family and won't accept anything but uncle from her and since she's the only girl he's extremely protective.
