MAFIA TIES

Chapter three

I JUST FOUND MY TICKET TO REVENGE

Luca’s POV

Mr Ricci walks in

“ Luca” he called out what about your encounter with Elisa.

This man has eyes everywhere Luca thought silently before answering

“ am I being followed ? “

you know you’re not but I heard whispers so I thought to ask about it you’re not denying it ?, there’s a lot at stake here, Luca

“ I understand that but Elisa

“ she’s the enemy” mr ricci cut short before Luca could finish his words mr ricci cut him short

But what if she could be more Luca asked

I know I have be pressuring you to get settled down but I didn’t mean with the enemy.

Even if that would make us unstoppable ? Luca asked ?

What’s in your mind mr ricci asked…………

Well relax and see…………

Elisa’s POV

I recieved a text from Luca

“Hello queenpin”

I see you found out who I am after all. I said

“ I assume that so did you “ Luca replied

That would be correct I said

I think we need to talk he said meet me at the corner of 5th street by the wine bar.

I stood in front of my closet, staring at the rows of designer clothes and accessories.

It was ridiculous how much time I was spending on this, I shouldn’t even care about what to wear to meet him. I shouldn’t even be meeting him. But here I was trying to pick an outfit that said “ I don’t care” but also I look amazing.

This was the first time he was really seeing me after all.

Finally decided what to wear and left to meet him

I have to search you simple precaution he said .

If you didn’t get enough of me yesterday, just say it.

Keep it up and I’ll have you say my name on those pretty lips” he said.

My heart skipped a beat as I took in Luca

He looked dangerous and irresistible, and I couldn’t help but wonder what kind of trouble I was getting myself into. A little too late for that Elisa.

Thanks for coming he broke the silence

I have to say I question your motive for us meeting that night. Was it a coincidence? he asked.

Yes it was I said.

And now that you know who I am ? He asked again

I have a proposition, I said .

I am all ears he said sounding so interested

I want to negotiate deals for my family.

The Vincenzos making a deal with the enemy, that’s interesting. Not the Vincenzos just me Elisa, I said.

Why should I trust your words? Luca questioned

Let’s just say I have somethings to prove,

Right, I heard Giovanni is getting the family empire.

Well let’s just say I’m not going down without a fight

The mafia Princess fighting for the empire, i must say you are full of surprises. But I got something for even better for you “

Humor me” I said

Ally with me and we will stop the war.

An alliance? I asked

Think about it Luca said with a smile on his face a smile I couldn’t resist then he further added with our family united, we would be unstoppable. We could build a new empire that’s stronger than anything either of our families has ever seen “ he said

This was my chance to create my own power, and finally be the person I’d always wanted to be.

“I’m in “ I agreed immediately

Back at home

Father I have an announcement to make I said

Go on my dad replied raising his head up. I heard Elisa here has some big news. Giovanni rudely interrupted he leaned against the door frame a wolffish grin spread across his face.

This is between me and my father I said

Is it because from where I was standing, you’re about to throw away your family’s legacy for……….

Excuse us for a second dad I cut In immediately I quickly grabbed Gio out of the office far from where dad could here us

What are you playing at Gio?!

I have been hearing some interesting rumors lately.

And what if it’s true ?

To say I thought we’d celebrate my new position together, but it seems like you’re working against my back. That’s a pity Elisa but you remember one thing. I will lead this family to greatness with or without your blessings. And if you think I’ll let you go through that plan of yours, you got another thing coming.

Back in dad’s office

You’ll be interested to hear that our dear Elisa……..

You do not get to speak for me or my decisions I said

Anything that happens in this family is my business Gio said with pride all over him

She met with Luca and made an alliance with him a very foolish endeavour

Elisa ! Dad yelled

Luca is a powerful ally, and together, we can take down anyone who stands in our way” I tried to assure we merge strengths and form a coalition that no one can threaten.

Now you’ve got my attention dad said

“This is suicide” Gio screamed

If you can’t beat someone you…………

Ally with them I helped dad complete his words

Dad looked up with a smile and said to me, impress me and the empire will be yours.

Uncle! Gio screamed

Afraid to loose ? I asked Giovanni with a wink this made him really angry.

LUCA’S POV

Luca was trying to convince his father

With our combined resources and influence, we’d be unstoppable. You wanted me to prove my worth, I just did.

How do you know we can trust him Luca’s father asked.

She’s the most powerful woman in Chicago if she wanted me dead, I would be yet she accepted the alliance.

Don’t fall for her Luca……

Don’t worry about me father

Later that night……………

At Luca’s house luca and his sister appears to be standing in front of a shattered window.

Angela kept insisting it was the Vincenzos who scattered their house but Luca kept reassuring he was

Who else could it be Angela questioned.

We have no shortage of enemy and you know that.

You never know with the Vincenzos Angela said again

They think they can just do whatever they want

Luca was in deep thought “ this isn’t good for our alliance, tonight will be crucial” he thought quietly he had remembered earlier telling Elisa to arrange a meeting for both families to meet.
