"Dove diavolo sei stato?" I ask as Leo walks into my office

"Dove diavolo sei stato?" I ask as Leo walks into my office. (translation: where the hell have you been?)

"Well, I spent all of yesterday torturing some people in the basement and then today preparing for Ana to take omertà." He replies

We got back from America two days ago and immediately started preparing.

"Speaking of which, that's actually the reason I'm here. Are you sure we can trust her enough to let her in the family? I mean 4 days ago she tried to kill you. And who knows who she's working for if she is working for someone." He sits down in front of me.

"I will never trust Ana but you said it yourself, she would benefit us. As an assassin she would already know what omertà is and what will happen if she breaks it. She is undeniably attractive so we can use it to our advantage and use her as a seductress when needed. She has the skills for it believe me and she's an assassin so there is no need for training." I say.

"Well, everyone is gathered outside. Bring her out so we can get started." He tells me and then gets up to leave.

I follow shortly behind him in the direction of Ana's room and knock on the door.

It opens to her greeting me on the other side.

"What?" She asks

"It's time for you to take omertà." I tell her.

She immediately tenses.

"And what if I don't want to join your little girl scout troupe?" She asks.

"It's not a girl scout troupe and we've already been over this a million times. You know exactly what will happen."

She glares into my eyes for a few moments before looking away and walking past me, heading in the direction that everyone else is.

We walk down the middle and everyone bows their heads as a sign of respect.

"We have a new member joining us today." I announce.

I turn to Ana. "Ana Hart, do you swear loyalty to this family?" I ask.

"Sure."

I clench my jaw at her answer.

"Do you swear to keep what happens in this family confidential?"

"I guess."

I take a deep breath, trying to contain my annoyance.

"Do you swear to put this family above all else and ensure it's safety?"

"It's not like I have any other choice."
