Stolen by the Mafia ☑️

Bree

It's silent. I sit with my back against a tree. The tears fall down my cheeks. Not even the crickets dare to creak.

The only sound you hear is small.

Its my heart, tearing. Slowly and painfully.

I let out a sob. I hadn't cried this hard since my mom died.

I loved her but not how I loved Liam.

I knew we moved fast but something was there.

And know he's dead.

And I caused it.

I caused his death.

I was his weakness.

I was the cause.

I won't have a weakness.

I won't have someone else be the cause.

I won't love again.

I know what I have to do.

I stand up and wipe the tears from my eyes.

I won't let my self show weakness.

I won't feel.

I'll be a cold hearted, a force to not be reckoned with.

The devils laugh.

The tip of the blade.

The leader of the Mafia.

*****

I barge into the office without knocking.

"I'm taking over Tony," I say

. My voice emotionless.

"Huh?" He looks at me confused.

"I'm taking over, I will take Liam's spot." I say.

"Not happening Tesoro, it's to dangerous," Al says.

"You think I don't know that?" I ask. "My fiancé died because of the job. Actually he died because of me. I'm not going to sit around and mope. I loved him he loved me we were supposed to get married. My job would be to help run the mafia. Now that he is dead I will be taking his spot. It's what he would have wanted." I say.

My voice saying there was no room for discussion.

"But-" I cut him off.

"No, it's happening Alejandro, don't test me," I say.

He nods.

I look at Tony.

Tony and Al are starring each other. 

They both look nervous.

"Bro don't get your thong in a bunch, I don't want this job. I'm already  sore to death doing yoga. This job is to stressful," Tony says trying to lighten the mood.

I nod.

"You have to throw a gala to announce though," he says.

I nod again.

I can throw a gala.

That's easy.

"And you know, convince the parents," shit I forgot about that.

"Well they don't get a choice," I say.

"They gave the title to you and you just okayed me having it. They'll just have to deal with it themselves." With that I exit.

*****

I slipped on my black half dress half romper.

It was skin tight but had a flowy cape thing in the back. It had long sleeves and had a ring around my neck. I paired it with wedge combat boots. I don't wear heals.
