my darling violet

Chapter 34

Finally reaching the top of the stairs I go into my room and grab my sketchbook out, finally having some time to do it for once I go over to the seating area in my room and sit on the swinging one. I have just finished outlining the drawing when someone bursts into my room, closing my sketchbook I look up to see the one and only Carlos in the room, looking at me with an eyebrow raised.

"and why aren't you dressed?" he asks

"why what time is it, you should be here for hours still" I reply very confused

Looking down at my phone I see that it's 12 which is when Carlos comes over on the weekends so we both have time to do things after.

"crap sorry I thought I still had time" I yell running into my closet, closing the door to change then running back out, tying my hair up into I ponytail.

"it's all good but I don't want it to happen again, you should be ready for everything, hell even be early for things" he says while walking down the stairs

Through the past week, I have grown more comfortable with Carlos but I'm still not fully comfortable with him and I think Elijah can see that so he always makes sure that he is there watching when I have training. really I think Elijah could train me, I mean he is sitting there anyway and he knows where I'm up to and he's gone through training before so he should know what to do but he says that Carlos is the best there is and that I shouldn't have him training me when I could have Carlos. Personally, I think he just doesn't want to train me but hey what are you going to do about it.

It takes us four hours but we are finally done, my body is tired and I'm exhausted but we are finally done. We did sparing, the normal muscle-building exercises and the punching bag plus some other things. Carlos also said that once I get pretty good at fighting he will teach me other things like how to shoot with a gun and how to find with a knife and I heard that Matthew might be teaching me how to hack. So really the training is only going to get harder.

After having another quick shower I decided that instead of going back to drawing I would go and annoy Alessandro, it's 4 pm and I haven't seen him all day so I think now would be the perfect time to. Walking into his office he's sitting at his desk hunched over some paper.

"what's up old man" I say jumping down onto his couch that Lorenzo surprisingly isn't on

"working" he says not even taking his eyes off the paper

"wow that's how you treat your hurt little sister who you didn't see for nearly 16 years" I reply with a sad voice just to see what it would do

"What, what's wrong, what happened" he says whipping his head up franticly, a lot of concern in his voice

"haha nothing's wrong I just wanted to talk to your face and not the top of your head"

"oh well why could you just say that instead of giving me a heart attack, geez"

"so what have you been up to?" I ask seeing as he wasn't saying anything

"I'm trying to make an alliance with the Koreans, they currently don't have an alliance with someone we do and it would be beneficial for the both of us but they won't agree. Apparently, we aren't offering anything they would be interested in"

"Well, what are the other offers you gave them?"

"the first one we said they could have 5% of our guns and we would just take their protection when we needed it, the second was they could have 10% of our guns and we would still have their protection and now I'm working on a third" he says sighing, sounding really tired and annoyed to still have to be dealing with this

"well maybe they don't want guns, I mean I'm pretty sure they can make ones we haven't even seen. Why don't you actually ask what they want" honestly why does he think the Koreans want guns, isn't it well known that they are way ahead of us with technology so why wouldn't their guns be too

"that is a good idea I will give him a call"

"before you do, why the hell are all the bosses guys, I mean you would think the way you guys are so dumb about everything that there would be at least one female" I ask exasperated

"well there was one but she got kidnapped, rapped and tortured and when her mafia finally found her two days after she was back she killed herself so people don't want their family members that are female to be put into a role of high power, the closets we have now is either wives or a fourth in command. Or the rest of the mafias believe that women shouldn't have a high position" he says thoughtfully

"well that is honestly a load of shit, I'm sure if women were in charge we would kick all of your asses" I almost yell feeling very annoyed with everything

"yes, I'm very certain you woman would but right now all of them are too scared to" he says dialling the number for the capo of the Korean mafia

With that, I huff and walk out of the room too annoyed to find out how it goes with the Korean guy.
