The silence in the room was enough for one to hear a pin drop.
"Godfather,I brought her here,I have every right." Astrid said.
"Silence Venom!, you can't just bring a slave from God knows where and decide to make her our secret assassin. You barely know this thing" Godfather Demarco spoke,his voice full of despite.
Rose was short of words,truly powerless and weak. She Rose an assassin. Never.
She could feel glares from members of the clan. Especially Nicole and Alessia. She knows those two won't go easy on her.
Carmine noticing that no one is gonna make an effort to stop the Godfather and Astrid from giving deadly glares came forward.
"Okay...okay. Enough with the glares godfather and Astrid we need to talk okay" Carmine said her voice trying to sound a bit authoritative.
"If there's anyone who needs your talk then talk to your father Carmmy. He knows what we wants for the clan but he doesn't want to do it" Astrid spoke his voice laced with anger.
Turning around he stormed out slamming the door with full force.
Godfather Demarco sighed out.
"Vincent,increase the training skills of the mobs. Matteo see to it that none of the clan members lag behind again. Carmine,you are in charge of recruiting new members and you know better than recruiting weaklings. Ginger,Blade and Spark,I hope you are not sleeping behind computers. Make sure securities are tight. We will continue the robots project soon" Godfather gave orders and turned to leave but stopped.
Turning to the members,his eyes caught Rose trying to hide in the mobs and leave through the back door.
"You,Slave..." His deep voice rang out.
Rose froze on the spot. Eyes turned to her.
"Me..Its Rose Mr Godfather not Slave" Her voice gave out before she could stop herself
Gasps...
👥. Did she just talk back to godfather?
👥. She's really insane...
👥. She just dug her grave.
" I don't care whatever you are called. Follow me" He ordered and walked out.
"What does the old man want. Gosh,I hope its not gonna be a "What did you do to my son talk" cause if it is. I will definitely collect the money given to leave his son and go" She said already imagining.
Immediately the Godfather,Carmine and Matteo left,not without Matteo glaring hard at Rose. Everyone let out their breath.
Nicole and Alessia blocked Rose who was on her way to the Godfathers office.
"Ohh great,now with Dirty Brain Girls" Rose mocked.
"Look at you acting all high and mighty because he f**ked you just for one day. Let's see how you would survive godfather wrath" Nicole mocked looking at her like a disgusting thing
" You are just a petite slave looking for who to notice you. Attention seeker. Bet you've never been given attention all your life loser" Alessia cursed,both walking out swaying their waist.
Rose eyes welled up in unshed tears. Their words stunk. She had never received attention ever since she lost her parents.
"Don't let their words get to you Feisty" Ricky said standing beside her.
Rose looked at him and just nodded,walking away.
"Errrhehem,Don't tell me you are interested in my pretty girl?" Ginger said standing with hands on her hips,with Blade by her side giving him a funny look
" Ugggh,hi Ginger. I was just saying hello to her its nothing" He said akwardl scratching the back of his head.
" Hmmmmm, okay if you say so Rick. See you around " Blade said pulling Ginger away.
{ ASTRID ROOM }
The lights in the roof are out except for a single dim red light giving faint hints of the room glow.
The room reeks of smoke. Since Astrid left the hall. He's being here smoking his life out.
"Arrrggghh,Damn you DeMarco." He said smoking heavily.
"Why can't I get to make my own f**ken decision. I never wanted this clan responsibility". He said punching the wall hard.
{GODFATHER'S OFFICE}
Godfather is sitted staring at the girl in front of him,looking so innocent,as if she wasn't the one who spoke back to him minutes ago.
" What did Astrid see in you that he wants to make you an assassin. Cause looking at you,you barely have bones. No ass,no b**bs or whatever. Don't you feed well from where you came from?" Godfather DeMarco asked looking at her scornfully.
"Ugh,Mr Godfather. I'm human too and I will appreciate if you don't body shame me. As for what your son said. Assassin or Whatever,I'm not interested" Rose replied back.
DeMarco couldn't speak,he was really surprised at her feistyness.
Gently he stood up,walking round the office for a few seconds and stopped.
"Consider it as an opponent if you want to survive this clan. Its either you become a mobster or you remain a slave" He said his back still turned on her.
" I'm sorry godfather but I only follow Masters rules" Rose said softly.
" Is Astrid your only master b**ch?. How dare you talk to godfather like that" Matteo said coming in suddenly.
" I clearly remember not inviting you here Matteo" DeMarco said turning to face him.
" I came to discuss with you Father" Matteo Spoke.
" And I will appreciate if this b**ch leaves," Matteo said glaring at her.
"Oops,I'm sorry godfather but this man looks like he's gonna plan evil. I'm sorry Mattayos or Whatever but I'm going nowhere" Rose said all the gentleness flying out of the window.
Walking gently to the swivel chair at the corner,she sat,hands on her jaw.
"Go on,I won't leave until godfather says so" She winked at Matteo.
It was obvious that she hates him already,given the way he stares at her always.
"Whatttt?" Matteo face shrink with rage.
Godfather Smirked.....
