Third Person POV
"What happened? What did you tell him?", Charlie asked Jules as she came out of the office, her eyes were blood shot and her hands were shaking slightly.
"The truth", She said with a heavy sigh. Adam turned to her quickly and gave a glance to Leo who raised his eyebrows at her.
"Not everything, I didn't mention about your family nor that he committed suicide because of your group, just that he was dead and that his brothers are part of the Mafia", She said in a mumble, sniffling as she spoke, rubbing her eyes as if trying to get rid of the tears. Adam and Leo nodded as Aiden, Chris and Max came through from the back room.
"We found them", Aiden said with a grin as Chris and Max copied his malicious smile.
"I know we can't kill them yet because of the whole business side, but is it truly that important?", Max said with a sadistic smile as the other nodded in agreement.
"It's a good thing our little sister is a genius", Leo stated with pride in his voice as they looked at him in confusion, their head going to the side slightly like confused dogs.
"She got into their office", Adam said as the boy looked at each other, "And managed to remember 386 names, very crucial names in addition to a few main players that control the entire drug aspect of their mafia", He continued to say as the boys faces lit up with every word he spoke.
"So we can do whatever we want?", They asked Adam as he gave them a nod, a smirk on his lips as Leo shook his head.
"Is that the smart way to go here?", Leo asked them all as they raised their eyebrows at him, even Chris. His new taste of blood had turned him into his brothers, he now felt like he fitted in.
"In what way brother?", Adam asked him with curiosity.
"In a way where we can form a peace alliance rather than kill that poor boys family, leaving him with only his mother, in addition to having their extended family acting within revenge, especially now that we have a young girl, AKA our baby sister, to protect", He said bluntly as Adam huffed slightly, annoyed at himself for thinking of the same solution.
He had always felt that Leo would of made a better Don of the Italian Mafia yet he never backed down, he was the eldest and that's how these things went. His cousins never said anything about wanting control, since their father was the old Don, it naturally goes to his children unless they are challenged by another part of the family.
No one wanted the title of the Don but Adam, and people within the family would never go against him, not now and not ever.
"But that's so boring", Max whined slightly as he crossed his arms over his chest, Chris following him.
"No, it's smart, they have no clue that we know everything we need to know about their business, we can easily keep control and on top of it, and we can tell if they want to take strike onto our family. Think about it, we have no where near the amount of men to control both Italy and Spain, and I seriously doubt the Spanish crews and gangs will willingly join our side", He said bluntly in an all-knowing tone, annoying Adam slightly.
"I agree with Leo", Raymond said from behind him, his hands by his side calmly as Leo nodded at him, happy that his brother was backing him up.
"Even if we did take control of their country, it wouldn't last more than a couple of months, our men will be lost due to gang violence and the lack of respect they have for the Italians", Raymond added as Chris, Max and Aiden nodded in agreement reluctantly.
"We will make them respect us", Aiden mumbled under his breathe as Leo shook his head then looked towards Adam, his eyebrows raised as looked back at the three boys.
Charlie was back in the office with Jules, unaware of the argument outside the door.
"Think about it, that Jules woman is the rightful Donna, she can take control, act as our leading woman", Aidan said with pride, happy that he had thought of it before Adam shook his head slowly after a few seconds.
"No", He said bluntly as Aiden's shoulders dropped and a scowl went on his face.
"We hardly know this woman, we don't know her. She owes us nothing and we have no idea about the relationship she has with her sons, yes she might of walked away from them but we all know the family love that can turn as quick as a finger snap", He said coldly as he turned away from his brothers, aware of the lack of both mother and father figure they all had, well, except from himself.
"But she loves our Charlie and Sam", Max pointed out as Leo nodded his head but sighed.
"Yes she does, however she doesn't like us. I'm sorry, that isn't an option", Raymond pointed out as the eldest brothers nodded their heads in agreement.
"So we have two choices, kill them all or form an alliance", Leo stated as Adam nodded his head in agreement. His ego was screaming to him right now to kill them all and ignore Leo's statement and his brilliance, but his heart was telling him Leo's made more sense.
"We need the alliance. Maybe their youngest being friends with Sam will always sway them to be on our side, you never know. And we can always recruit more men but it will be short lived if the Spanish has been told of our crimes and rebels back which they will. It's not worth the lives lost to gain nothing", Adam stated loudly as the family nodded in agreement, cheering on their leader.
"Now we have agreed, bring them here so we can discuss this offer, and boys, no need to be gently, we may form this agreement, but we still need to form a sense of respect", Adam said to them all as guns were fired into the air with yelling and screaming right after.

Sam, Ebony and James were still cuddled up together, comforting each other as they heard the yelling and cheering from the other room.
"What's going on?", He asked Sam and Ebony as they shrugged their shoulders, confused on why they were cheering but has a small suspicion on what it might be about. James picked up on that quickly.
"What? What's going on? Why aren't you telling me the truth about my family?", He asked her before he quickly got up, standing over them with anger written all over his face with his hands on his hips. The girls shared a glance before nodding to each other.
"We are going to tell you the truth about something because I believe that you of all people deserve to know", Ebony said quietly as she looked towards Sam.
"You're his best friend, you tell him", She mumbled, trying to use this as an excuse to not tell him herself. Sam sighed as glared at Ebony, annoyed at her coward of a friend.
"Alright, go on then", James said to Sam with a glare, becoming more annoyed at the secrets that his supposed friend had kept from him.
"My family, well, Ebony and I's family, are the Italian Mafia", Sam said quietly as James's mouth dropped, kneeling down on the ground in front of them as he gasped quietly.
"So, mine was the Spanish and yours is the Italian", He said to himself, trying to make sense of the huge coincidence.
"How long have you know?", James asked them both softly which surprised the girls.
"Not long, Ebony knew before me as she has always been around them but I had to figure it out on my own", Sam told him as James rolled his eyes.
"Of course you did, you always do figure it out before anyone else", He said spitefully although they all knew it was because he was hurt, that his mother didn't tell him or that he couldn't figure it out himself.
"So what, your family killed my family?", He asked bluntly with his head in his hands, his anger building up inside of him. They both shook their heads quickly.
"We have no idea, we weren't there but I was at your house", Sam said quickly, noticing James's sudden mood change. He looked up at her quickly and waved his hand at her, asking for more.
"They kidnapped me and Charlie for information on you and your mother but we got out before they hurt me but Charlie...", She said quietly as James got up suddenly and punched the cubicle wall beside him, cutting his knuckled with the strong impact. Both the girls stood up quickly, going towards each other.
"They hurt Charlie to get to me and my mother?", He whispered under his breathe, his words harsh and venomous. The girls nodded their heads slowly, aware of how delicate they had to be with him right now.
After a few seconds, James quickly ran out the room, both girls following in his footsteps as more cheering was heard.
They all ran to the main room, tripping over their feet slightly as they tried to keep up with him but James didn't slow down, he wanted to find his mother and leave. NOW.
He stopped dead in his tracks when he reached the door of the main room, gasping as the girls quickly came up beside him, quietly gasping in unison. His brothers were tied up to Chairs in the centre of the room with bruises along their faces, defeated looks on their faces.
"What the fuck?!", James screamed out as everyone looked in his direction. His brothers smiling from ear to ear although it caused them pain.
What the hell was about to happen?
