The Mafia's Angel

Lucia My name is Lucia and I'm 21. A volunteer at Lorenzo's, a society program a few minutes away from my house, my life is pretty mediocre. I also work at a bar, the pay's pretty good. $500 every five hours is calm, considering the fact that I don't want to rely on my parents' money.  ''A Cosmopolitan and two shots of mojito, please.'' a tall blonde basically yells into my face, the alcohol aiding her seeming boldness. ''Coming right up.''  I turned around to the bar behind me and mixed the usual Cointreau, lime juice, cranberry juice and vodka with ice in one of our shakers. Pouring into a glass, I rimmed the drink with a lime wedge and passed it over to her. The mojito shots were nearby so I passed them over to her.  ''Thanks, babes!'' she scurried away. The rest of the day passed in the same order, making drinks  I sighed as I checked my watch. 7:56. My shift was over, and it was time for me to head to Lorenzo's. I hung my apron on the racks inside and yelled bye to Andy, facepalming as I heard shouts back.  ''Bye w***e!'' As I push the door open and walk to my car at the back entrance, the wind knocks my hair into my eyes and I groan, pulling it into a bun at the back. The loud chatter of people still at the bar does my head in, and I nod to Jakob the bouncer as I leave.  Pitter, patter. My footsteps echo in the parking lot as I fish in my purse for my keys. Once inside my baby,  a 2021 Tesla Model S I spent half of my money and half of some of the money my parents left two months ago, I rev the engine and start off to the society program, Billie Eilish's 'when the party's over' wafting away in the car.                                                                                        .....    ''Lou!''  ''Isabel!'' The little girl whose mum is head of stock at Lorenzo's runs up to me and hugs me as soon as I step out the car.  ''How are you, little one. It's late, shouldn't you be at home? Where's your mum?''  Chocolate curls bounce as she grins, chocolate smeared from tooth to tooth. A huge glob of chocolate plastered uglily onto the front of her yellow shirt and her tab in hand, I shriek in horror as I look down at my clothes, and as luck has it, it's smeared all over me.  "I'm sorry aunty" "It's ok, where's your mom?" "She's inside talking to some man" "Who gave you chocolate?" I wonder who this man is  "Oh, I see" "Yes, and I want more" she said pouting her lips "Not after you get changed out of these chocolate smeared clothes" "Yay!!!" I just pray I have some chocolate in my bag  "Alright, know tell me where your mom is" "She's in the store room" "Alright, lets go" She left skipping and we arrived there to her speaking to the same man and then I heard some shouting and cuss words so I stayed back and listened from a little distance. "I can get you your money please give me time" "I've given you a full year, I can't give more" "Please just a month and I'll repay you your $700 with a little more, I'm begging" She started sobbing, I wonder what she was using sue money for and who this man is  In the middle of my thoughts I didn't realise that he was close to the door, I dragged Isabella with me and he came out looking at me weirdly  "Do I know you?" I just had to ask "No you don't, I just thought you looked familiar"  Weird people everywhere  "Alright"  He walked past me  I dragged Isabel and walked in the room with her wiping her tears  "Hey baby" "Hey mom, why do you look like you've been crying?" "Its nothing dear, the real question is why do you have chocolate smeared all over your body" "I ate the chocolate that man gave me when he came in" "He gave you chocolate?" "Yes and he told me I was pretty" "Alright" "Do you have any spare clothes for her" I ask "I think so but I'll have to check this hasn't really happened before" "Alright do you want me to change her or you want to do that?" "Actually please could you help me?" I have something to do" "Ok" I said politely  She searched the two bags she brought and pulled out a black pair of tights and a black shirt "Here you go" "Thank you, when I'm done should she stay with me or you want me to bring her to you or give her to someone on my way out?" "I think she'll be ok with you, if that's no trouble"  "Yes its no trouble" She can't be that bad yes?'                                                                                       .......... I take my words back, she's so troublesome and has so much energy; One minute she's here another she's gone. I got her changed then picked out a shirt that I left here before and sat on my desk chair and continued my work leftover work from the day, I've literally been piling; In my thoughts I didn't know Isabel had wandered  "Isabel, where are you??"I said wandering through the hall, I'm not ready to loose a child I can't even birth. "Oh Isabel, where are you?" I said happily when I heard footsteps  "I'm here aunty" She said in the playroom  "Why did you leave?" "I don't know, I was bored and you were working" she said pouting  "Ok how 'bout you give me 20 minutes and we can play" "Really?" "Yes, but only if you promise to stay with me and not move" "Yes please I promise not to leave your side till you're done with work" "Good, let's go"                                                                                   .................... Alejandro My name's Alejandro I'm 24 and I'm a Mafia Boss, I'm currently working on a project in France on setting up a meeting with another of our alliances to take both our enemies down. I've been here for over a year and this is one of the hardest thing I've ever had to encounter because anytime we get close to the main deal something always has to come up. I've had a lot of betrayal and even from the people I love the most, so I didn't exactly believe in love till I met her on my way back home from work planning my trip to Pari; ever since then I felt this attachment, attraction and need to protect her and that's what I've been doing for the past year. "Axel, why on earth do you keep barging into my office like you own it?" I asked the d**k of my best friend standing in front of me "Well I'm quite hurt, I suppose you should know this by know" I just stared at him confused  "Whatever's yours is mine" "Can I kill you?" "No, because you love me so much" "Whoever said that?" "You don't need to say it" "What do you want?" "Well there's good news I suppose" "Yes?" "The white snaked gang have finally agreed to join the meeting" "They didn't exactly have a choice did they?" "I guess so" "Well, I'm gonna leave you to whatever you were doing" "Wait! How's she?" Knowing who I'm asking about  "She's been good, she's been doing quite good actually" "That's nice" "Just tell if anything changes yeah?" "Yeah yeah" "Bye" "Yeah getout" He left laughing                                                               ***************************** Hope the first chapter was nice  *Emily :))
