The Mafia's Legend

Ace De Santis

I woke up to the sound of my alarm. Groaning, i look at the time and saw that it's 9:00. Remembering that i have to go and pay a visit to the Hale, i got off the bed and went in the shower.

I was ready by 9:30. Putting my watch around my wrist, I made my way outside and saw Ian and Jeremy waiting infront of my car like I told them too.

Ian and Jeremy are my friends but they also work for me. I don't show it but i like them. In the end, i know we would die for each other.

I had no problem with the Hales. I just have a problem with their daughter, Alexia. I don't really tolerate her but if it meant finding out whoever that fucker who have evidence on us is, I'll work with her.

At least till we find that asshole.

"Morning, Ace." Jeremy smiled at me.

"Morning Jeremy, Ian." I replied with a nod.

"Lets go!" Ian said excitedly and a smile made his way on my face thanks to his enthusiasm.

"I'll drive." i stated as i got into the driver's seat and they both hopped into the car.

We reached The Hale's house within 30 minutes. Their house was huge but not as huge as mine. Once the guard outside saw me, he opened the gate.

We rang their doorbell and within a few seconds, we were greeted with a woman who was probably 40.

"Who are you?", She asked, staring at us.

"Hello," i greeted, "Sorry for disturbing you. Im Ace, Ace De Santis," I pointed to the men behind me, "and they are Ian and Jeremy."

"Let them in." a male voice inside said as the woman stepped aside and welcomed us inside.

"Ace," he smiled at me. "To what do i owe this pleasure?"

"Chris." I gave him a nod.

"Take a seat." He pointed to the couch as he made himself comfortable and i followed his movements.

"I would answer the question if you didn't already know the answer." I replied in a serious tone.

"Did you find out who was the one who betrayed you?" Chris asked while sipping his tea.

"Yeah," i started, "Some asshole named William. My guys are on it. They're after him."

"In mine, it was someone name Peter." He said, "When i find him, he's gonna wish he was never born."

"Who do you think is behind all this?" i thought to myself and started thinking of all the people who could possibly want revenge.

My thoughts were soon interrupted when my eyes fell on probably the most beautiful woman ive ever laid eyes on stood on the stairs.

She stood on the stairs looking straight at me in her shirt and a pair of shorts. Her hair was long and messy. It was no mystery that she just woke up. I let my eyes roam shamelessly around her body then went to her face again. She wasn't wearing any makeups. Not that she needed them.

"Dad," she spoke, "What kind of sick person comes at someone's house at 10:00 am in the morning?" She continued "—whoever that person is, i hope he or she knows that they disturbed my sleep." She ended, descending the stairs.

"Morning sweetheart." Chris greeted her with a smile then turned back to me. "Meet Ace, Ace meet my daughter, Alexia." He introduced us to each other.

"Morning dad." She returned the smile but it disappeared as soon as she laid her eyes on me. "What the hell is he doing here?"
