^^^^ Esmerelda- Antoinette's outfit above^^^^

Esmerelda- Antoinette's POV:

I groaned and rubbed my eyes. I yawned and woke up from my bed. Last Night's memories drifted back into my mind. We played capture the flag outside and had delicious snacks. The party ended at around 4 in the morning. I checked my alarm and it read 8 am. I only have 4 hours of sleep yet I feel as bright as ever. I had a small cold from being in the rain for too long. I just took some cherry-flavored cough syrup for that. I got out of bed and headed to the bathroom. I brushed my teeth and changed into a business-casual outfit. I had to catch up on a lot of missed work today. Most importantly Sylvester was going to pick me up today to meet Ryder Blake today. Then I realized. I messed up. I was in Sicily when I was meant to be in Rome. Oh My Gosh. I am literally the dumbest person on this planet. After I brushed my teeth and got dressed I decided to talk to Sylvester. I called him.

"Hello Don," Sylvester said through the phone. I rolled my eyes.

"It's Esme to you Consigliere." He chuckled through the phone.

"Yeah so sorry to disappoint you but I ran away from my brothers and dad's home to Sicily." There was a dead silence. I did mess up, didn't I?

"Really Esme. You knew we were going to have a meeting today with the American Don. How could you be so stupid? You ran away on top of that. This is the worst mistake you have made so far. And applaud to you." I listened to his ranting.

"But we can fix it right..." I ask. He sighs.

"Luckily I was in Ireland doing a check up on how the abandoned mafia is doing and met Don Alexander there. Apparently, Don Alexander is good friends with Don Ryder-Blake. I saw Alexander give him a tour of the Irish Mafia. They were just catching up. I asked if it was okay if we all went to Italia together and met with you. Since you are in Sicily I will simply change the destination. We will arrive in Sicily at 6 pm sharp. Get everything ready. I assume you're with the assassins and hackers." He says. Once again the Consigliere saves the day.

"Si Consigliere. I am here now hanging up. I have a lot of work to do today." I hang up and I get to work. I head down the stairs and call out for Apinya. Apinya is a small cute Thai girl that I recently hired. About 2 months ago. She is pretty good at hacking. I was going to tell her to do the reservations and book a limousine. She always gets any job I need to be done even if it is small. Makes her one of the most trustworthy employees I have.

"Apinya! APINYAAAA!" I yell through the house. My throat gets a little sore. Soon Apinya comes to the kitchen where many of the other assassins are enjoying their breakfast.

"Yes Don how may I help you," she says politely. It is work hours so I accepted her 'Don' but I was going to stop her.

"Can you please book a private room at the most expensive restaurants, I am having a meeting with very important guests. Also, book a limousine and send it to the airport. It should arrive at 5:55 pm sharp. Understand?" I ask her in a serious voice.

"Yes, Don." I smile at her.

"Good now have you had your breakfast," I ask her. Breakfast is quite an important meal.

"No Don." I sigh.

"Here I have a bowl of strawberries and raspberries. Also here is a stack of pancakes. Eat well." I say. I hand her the fruit and pancakes which she gladly accepts.

I go to the refrigerator and see that there is orange juice. I pour myself a glass and drink it. My breakfast is done. Wow, I am such a hypocrite, I say breakfast is important but I don't eat any myself. Shake my head. I go to the office that I had in the mansion and get to work. I read my first mail. It was from the Diamonds and Co. Company. It was about launching the new product we had developed. It was called the Diamond Security 2. Diamond Security was our first and strongest security system in the world but now we have developed a better version. I write a quick email and sign a few documents online which would allow the products to go live. We would get so much profit from this. I read the second email. The second email was from my Hacker Team in the South of Russia. I read it thoroughly.

Hello Don,

The Hackers in South Russian Post have found a mass illegal movement of Human Trafficking occurring at the Eastern Russian-Chinese Border. We have figured out that the Chinese Mafia isn't behind this. It is actually the Shadow Dragons. They are going to sell women in Mongolia and perhaps take it all the way to Japan. We are not sure. We have kept them under our radar. We have immense security over them, they haven't figured out that we have eyes on them. We are successfully incognito as of right now. Please tell us what to do next. We must act fast. Based on what we have heard through the Security Speakers is that they plan on selling on June 3rd. That is in the next six days.

Regards.

South Russian Hacking Team

The mail was shocking. I had to act fast. I needed to come up with a plan as soon as possible. I replied with a letter saying I would share the plan shortly. I had to discuss with Consigliere first. He always helps me when it comes to on-field strategy. I replied to a few more emails. I was now tense by the fact that the Shadow Dragons were committing such sins. The Shadow Dragons are an illegal organization almost like a gang that originated in China. They do not have a tie-up with the Chinese Mafia. The Chinese Mafia is always shy and reserved. They have a tie-up with their own government which is weird because the point of a Mafia is to have a solo business but whatever. I am not the one to judge. I breathed to de-cloud my mind from the negative thoughts. I was about to head outside when I heard a knock on my office door.

"Come in!" I said loudly. I saw Joaquin peek his head in and his giant body came into view.

"Hello, Don. I have some information I would like to share." He says. When Joaquin is serious you know something is up.

"Yes of course. Sit Down." I told him and pointed at one of the red velvet material chairs. He pulled the chair out and sat. I smiled.

"Now what is it," I ask.

"Okay, so you know the assignment I have been working on. About the paper company." He asks.

"Yes of course," I tell him.

"Okay, so I think I have found leads to what companies are using the paper- company to promote and hide their illegal activities." He breaks the news to me.

"Okay so go on what have you found," I ask. He takes a deep breath.

"Okay, so I have found out that it is one of the most legal companies in Italy. You know the Giant Law Firm in Italy called Legge Del Sangue?" He asks me. I nod. That company takes over almost every crime done in Italy.

"They have done illegal things like killing, bribes, ransoms, and threats to many citizens. I have also found out that they might be related to the Italian Mafia. I don't know their relationship but they are related." He says the last part. I process the information silently.
