The war in New York! (BBVD&Marie)

[bigbadvoodoodaddy]

For decades even back in the old country two major bulls went head to head trying to be the better man, the better Don. They also wanted to be known as the best Don to come from the motherland. Once great friends as children went different directions and eventually became Don Palo ‘Il Macellaio’ (The Butcher) Mallon the head of the Italian Mafia and Don Niccolo ‘Il Diavolo’ (The devil) Alighieri.

There for a while every single day was a war between the two families that was until both families unknowingly moved to America to get away from persecution and prosecution in the motherland. Three entire years passed by rather quickly without either knowing that the other was also in America that was until both of them met one day again on the street and once more the hatred between the two flared up and caused total chaos on the streets. Every single day there was headlines in the papers about shootouts in public places some of which took the lives of innocent people. Though no one cared because the egos of Palo and Niccolo were so large that they wanted to show their dominance while also trying to prove that they were better than the other.

Giovanni Alighieri was your normal twenty year old rich boy loving to go clubbing and partying on a daily basis. He would drink in any bar he wanted to in the city and no one would say a word to him because of who is father was. Now unlike most spoiled rich brats Giovanni didn’t wear too much jewelry wanting to usually keep under the radar of most people knowing that if one of Mallon’s men noticed who he was then he could be kidnapped and used as leverage. Everyone in the nightclub scene though knew Giovanni though who wouldn’t notice a handsome, six foot two inch, two hundred and thirty pound muscular man with black hair and beautiful dark ocean blue eyes.

Giovanni currently sat in a local hot spot in the city called ‘The Dark room.’ Where he had a beer in hand watching everyone around him who were dancing. Looking over each face to see if he could find a woman to take home for the night having been known for being a real ladies man and getting around from woman to woman. As of now though no one had got his attention that was until he noticed one woman in the middle of the dance floor surrounded by a bunch of her friends. With that Giovanni took a large drink of his beer finishing it off quickly and he made his way to the dance floor and began dancing his way over to the woman. In a matter of seconds he had gotten to where she was and he continued dancing before turning around toward the young woman “Hey it’s a wonderful night to party huh” he asked wanting to start a small conversation with her and from there things would hopefully just escalate.

Marybeth opened her bedroom door looking around she knew her father was downstairs having one of his typical meetings about the other Don in town. Really Marybeth cared very little for the war between the Dons all she currently cared for was going out and partying it up. She grinned widely and shut her door as a pebble hit her window. "Yes." she said more then excited to know her friends were outside waiting for her escape. She ran over to the window and opened it widely. "Hey girl." her newest best friend Savannah said waving her down. "Hold on." Marybeth whispered grabbing a pair of her nicer black pumps and a small bag with a dress in it.
Marybeth wasn't going to sneak out of her house in one of her dresses she knew better then that. If she did her friends would get more then just an adventure they'd get a peek of what the dress hid under it. She tossed her shoes out at her friend as they dodged it and Marybeth laughed to herself as she climbed out the window silently shutting the window just enough so it looked closed but opened enough to slip her fingers under and push it back up. "Come on." Savannah shouted as softly as humanly possible. Marybeth waved at her to shut the hell up and climbed across the roof and down onto the garage which here trampoline was sitting for her. "Jump" Savannah said with a giggle and Marybeth did then climbed down and ran for her friends car along the way grabbing her heels.
It didn't take Marybeth to get dressed in the back seat seeing as it was Savannah Marybeth and one other girl in the car. They were all meeting up at a club called 'The Dark Room' it was going to be amazing! Marybeth wasn't like her friends she didn't have wild hair like Savannah it was typically any color in the rainbow but today it was blue, pink, and a dark purple. Nor did she dress up like Heather who was more gothed out then she'd ever seen although Marybeth did sometimes dress slutty when her father wasn't looking. Marybeth wasn't tall she only stood at five foot four inches tall but with her heels she was six inches taller. Marybeth had long wavy blonde hair that she could easily dye any color and it's look good.
Her eyes however were probably what made her stand out in her group of 'misfits' (that's what her father called them) her right eyes was a beautiful shade of blue that almost looked crystal like when the light hit it and the left eye is a pale bright green. Normally Marybeth was told to were contacts when she was out around the public after all she could be used as leverage if she was ever kidnapped. "We're here!" Savannah said pulling up in front of a large club Marybeth's mouth dropped open in shock. It was huge!
"Wow!" Marybeth said silently to herself as everyone got out and she handed the keys to the shofar and she made sure it was a shofar. Marybeth looked down at her simple black short dress that stopped half way down her thigh and hugged her tits tightly as well as showed the top off. She had a black head band holding most of her hair out of her face. "Come on!" Savannah said wrapping a hand around her friends shoulders and leading them into the club.
It was within two seconds of being inside the club that they were out on the dance floor arms in the air and bodies swaying to the heavy loud music that blared in the air. It was Marybeth's first time coming to this Club and she found it amazing. Someone started talking to her and she turned to see a very handsome man. "Ah..." she stared at his face and blushed trying to think of an answer to say to him as her friend Savannah leaned over to her "Sorry she's not use to boys all girls school!" She laughed and Marybeth looked at Savannah "Don't listen to her." she said elbowing Savannah making her leave. "It's a wonderful night to party."

(Sorry my post is a little short I've just been dealing with a lot. But I promise they'll get better. )


Giovanni smiled as he heard the woman tell him that he wasn’t used to boys since she went to an all-girl school before the other woman who he had, had his eyes on made the other woman leave but he spoke to Marybeth’s friend Savannah “Well then we’ll definitely have to change that won’t we? A beautiful woman like this definitely needs to be able to have fun you know what I’m saying and I promise miss that by the end of this night I will have helped make this the most exciting night of all of your lives” Giovanni said honestly as he looked at the women the entire time he was still dancing.

A man in a very nice tailored suit and many gold rings walked up to Giovanni and leaned in towards him before whispering in his ear “Mr. Alighieri Don Mallon’s hitman Luca Brasi is here. We need to take care of him but we can’t do so until we get your orders.”

Giovanni smiled as he said “Excuse me for a moment ladies” he said with a slight bow before walking off with the man who came with him “I want you to sneak attack him. Get him tied up and put in a chair in the manager’s office since my father owns this place. Once you’ve done that let me know and after I’m done talking with the beautiful young lady I was with I’ll take care of him myself” he said honestly before making his way back to where Marybeth was and smiled “I apologize for that I had to take care of some business being the son of the owner of this club can be hard at times but what is a man to do” he asked with a smile before looking at Marybeth as a slow song came on “Well I know we just met and all miss but I was wondering if I could have this dance. I noticed you came in with a bunch of your girlfriends and I’ll try not to keep you from them for too long it’s just I want the honor of dancing with the most beautiful woman in the entire club and quite possibly one of the most beautiful women in this entire country and I can say that honestly since I’ve been around the country a lot” he said using the beautiful compliment as an ice breaker because as of right now he wasn’t in love with the girl right now he was just your average recently adult male trying to get laid because that was what kind of person that Giovanni was. Never one to settle down but instead fuck anything he could though sometimes if the girl was beautiful enough he would go and see them on a regular basis “Oh and I know I forgot to tell you this early but my name is Giovanni but if you’d like you can call me Van my friends do since most people can’t say my name.”

Marybeth stood there with her friends as he walked away. Savannah grabbed Marybeths shoulder and turned her to look at her "Seriously he's a Hotty with a body you should so get his number fuck him then forget him." she grinned and Marybeth looked over her shoulder at him "Yeah but he seems to much like my dad a schmoozer." she whispered and Savannah laughed "You have daddy issues you should fuck him." she chuckled and Marybeth blinked at her as if the words didn't enter her ears. "Come on at least get his number." Savannah pleaded and Marybeth sighed "Fine I'll get his number." Savannah clapped her hands together with joy "And you should totally fuck him but I can understand why you won't if your dad found out he'd kill him and you'd never see the light of day again."
Savannah was more then right if her father found out she fucked some stranger she'd be in big trouble and he'd be six feet under. "Here's a condom just in case." she said handing her a small silver paper that had a unused condom sealed inside. Marybeth's eyes went wide in surprise. Marybeth whipped around holding the condom and then quickly hid it from him mas he apologized for leaving them. "You're the owners son huh?" she asked eyeing him closely. Marybeth looked at him as Savannah winked at her and walked away from them "Flattery will get you everywhere." she grinned widely as he called her beautiful. She moved in wrapping her arms around his shoulders as they slow danced. She smiled at his name "Giovanni... I know a Giovanni... I mean not personally." she put her face against his chest listening to his heart beat. "Giovanni Alighieri is his name." she whispered "My dad hates him he thinks he's a punk kid it's kind of funny." she smiled

 

[bigbadvoodoodaddy]

Giovanni smiled as he said “Yes my father owns this club and a couple of other places around here he’s….Well let’s just say he’s a business man with an eye for making money” he said honestly as she agree to dance with him while also saying that flattery would get him everywhere “Well I’m glad that flattery will get me everywhere because I love complimenting women as beautiful as you are darling it makes me happy to be able to let you know the truth” but then he was floored by her next comment about her father hating him. How could this man hate him because he didn’t even know who this young woman was. “Well then this just got really awkward between us because I am Giovanni Alighieri and I have absolutely no clue who you are or who your father is. I also don’t know how anyone could hate me because I am just a kid trying my best to keep the family business running since my father is in ill health. Not to mention I only know one man who hates my father and that is a man named Palo Mallon but that is a story I will have to tell you later because we are having such a great time together and I wouldn’t want to scare you off with telling you too much. If Palo Mallon found out that I was sharing this night with a beautiful woman like you, you could be in trouble the work this man does he wouldn’t think twice about having you disappear never to be seen again but that is my life unfortunately” Giovanni explained to her while still dancing with her as he heard a commotion behind him, he also hadn’t realized that the woman he was dancing with just so happened to be the daughter of his father’s sworn enemy.

James Brugga the man who had originally informed Giovanni of Luca Brasi being at the club chased after Luca. Somehow the hitman had found out that his bosses daughter Marybeth had escaped from her room and got here and he knew if Luca saw Giovanni there could be a shootout right here in the dance club.

Luca Brasi ignored James’ as he looked for Marybeth and when he found her he saw who she was with so he pulled out his gun and it was followed by a click as the hammer of the pistol cocked back and was being pointed at Giovanni “Let go of Miss Mallon you Alighieri trash” he said angrily.

“Wait….Miss what!!” Giovanni said stepping back from Marybeth as he heard who he had been dancing with quickly however he had made his way over to Luca not afraid of the man because if he died now he’d get a hero’s death. So he did the only thing he knew how to do an intimidation factor that would more than likely keep Luca from shooting him. He grabbed both sides of the pistol Luca was holding and placed the barrel right in the middle of his forehead before looking at Luca directly in the eye knowing that hitmen hated to see the eyes of their victims “Then shoot me Luca do it.. PUT A BULLET IN MY HEAD” he said angrily pressing his head so hard against the gun that there was now a circle imprinted in his forehead from where the gun was pressing against it.

Luca knew he couldn’t shoot because he had seen Giovanni’s eyes and he put the gun back down in its holster before grabbing Marybeth’s arm roughly “Your father will here of this little lady and he will not be pleased that you were in such close proximity with an Alighieri” and with that he began to drag Marybeth out of the nightclub but was stopped at the door by a couple of members from Giovanni’s Sicilian mafia.

“No, no Luca you know we aren’t letting you leave” Giovanni said from behind them before grabbing Luca’s hand that was holding Marybeth’s arm and he squeezed it tightly knowing that it would cause Luca to let go of Marybeth’s arm. “Now that he’s let go of her take Mr. Brasi here to the interrogation room” he ordered the two scary looking men before turning to Marybeth “You’re Don Palo’s daughter” he said it more like a statement than a question but he truly wanted to know if it was true.

 

[SweetMarie]

Marybeth kept her face pressed against his chest she didn’t want to look up at him or have him see her. It was too nerve racking she didn’t want to have any kind of other contact with him knowing if her father found out she was within inches of any guy she’d be in trouble and the fact he was making her blush didn’t help.

Marybeth’s eyes widened as he told her who exactly he was and her heart skipped a beat and her stomach flipped. She was actually dancing with Giovanni Alighieri! Oh her father would flip at the fact she was in the enemy’s arms. Marybeth smiled to herself “You don’t know me but I sure as shit know you and you definitely know my father.” She said softly not wanting to give up who her father was. She looked up at Giovanni as he told her what her father would do to her and she chuckled “I’m sure he would make it so I never saw the light of day again.”
Marybeth looked around for her friends a little worried about her being here cause after all this was still enemy territory. Marybeth’s eyes widened when she saw Luca and he started walked over to her “Fuck!” she said in a soft voice as Luca walked over. “Luca Brugga put that thing down.” She ordered him but of course he didn’t listen to her as she moved away from Giovanni. Marybeth watched what was happening go down. Marybeth sighed frustrated “Lucca come on leaving him alone and I’ll go home before they actually catch you!” she said grabbing Luca’s arm to get him out of the place.

Marybeth sighed in relief as Luca lowered the gun and put it away. “I’m sure he’ll know everything cause daddy knows best.” She huffed walking with Luca “Wait you going to tell him I was with Giovanni?” she shouted at Luca scared of her father’s reaction.

Marybeth turned to Giovanni when he said he wasn’t going to let Luca leave. “You can’t keep him here!” she snapped at him. Luca’s hand released Marybeth’s arm. She was glade she didn’t have to go home with Luca but she was a little mad that Giovanni was going to have to stay. “I demand you give me back Luca!” she said stomping her foot down angrily. “Yes Don Palo’s my father.” She walked over to Giovanni and she kicked him in the shins “Now give me back Luca or my father isn’t the only one you’ll have to deal with Giovanni!” she snared.

 

[bigbadvoodoodaddy]

Giovanni smiled as he looked at her blushing and said “You know I just wanted to let you know that you are even more beautiful when you blush which I didn’t think I was possible since you are already so beautiful” he said complimenting her still working his magic to try and get her into the bed with him but he knew that he would have to work hard to get this young woman to do that with him since her father hated him because who he was. And he had told her exactly who he was without a single care he liked this girl and could care less what her last name was. They could be the modern day Romeo and Juliet.

But that was when things got out of control Luca Brasi number one hitman for the Mallon family had already tried to off him until Giovanni took it upon himself to humanize (As it was called) himself with the so called killer. That was when Giovanni noticed that Luca was taking Marybeth out and he couldn’t allow that so he had his men stand in front of the door and begin escorting him to the interrogation room when all of a sudden he was on the floor because he had been kicked in the shins by Marybeth “Fuck what the fuck was that for” Giovanni asked angrily as he made his way up to his feet once more. He noticed some of his men heading to get Marybeth but Giovanni held his hand up stopping the men from killing her for hitting him this isn’t what he wanted to happen to the young woman because she wasn’t to blame for their father’s hatred “You know that was rude hitting me all my men are doing is making sure he has not other weapons than the pistol on his side. Once they cleared him of all weapons and he no longer was a threat we’ll let him go and you can go only if you want to I am not going to force you to do anything that you don’t want to do. Not to mention I was having fun getting to know you before you went and got physical with me and kicked my shins” with that Giovanni slowly leaned down to rub his shin for a second as if that would stop the pain.

“Sir are you sure you don’t want us to kill Luca and this whore it’d be so easy to dispose of them now since they’re in our place we can say that they entered our domain with intent on killing us” one of the new guys said as he placed as gun right to the back of Marybeth’s head and cocked the gun ready to shoot at any moment.

“Stand down Leonardo” Giovanni said calmly as he walked over to Marybeth and pulled the gun from the back of Marybeth’s head not hurting her and he took the bullets from the gun that Leo had just had. Then he slapped Leonardo across the face hard his one large gold ring with a huge diamond leaving an imprint on the man’s face “Tell the woman you’re sorry women should not be spoken to the way you just spoke of her” he said in an angry yet authoritative voice.

“I’m.” Leon placed his hand on his face because it hurt “I’m sorry for speaking to you wrongfully miss and I hope someday you’ll forgive me for my disrespect towards you” he said honestly bowing slightly.

Giovanni turned his attention to Marybeth “Now even though you assaulted me I would still be honored to share a dance with you. If you’d allow me the pleasure of escorting the most beautiful woman in this place around the dance floor.”

 

[SweetMarie]

Marybeth had her arms crossed over her chest as if protecting herself from a dangerous man. She knew how dangerous her father was so she assumed he was just as dangerous. “that’s for take my Luca away he’s my body guard… and my daddy doesn’t like you!” she snapped at him “No you’re men aren’t taking him to get rid of his ‘guns’ they’re taking him to the interrogation room! And if they hurt one hair on his head I’ll tell my daddy and then I’ll make sure to hurt you when I become don of my family and women in my family are so much worse!” she glared at him. “would you rather me rub your shoulders?” she mocked him her mouth was like a knife cold sharp.

Marybeth heard one of his men ask if he wanted them to kill her and Luca and her eyes went wide. Marybeth was sure her father didn’t know where she was and that would make things very bad. “It takes a real man to kill a female and sorry bud you’re not a man.” She stuck her tongue out at the man and then quickly put it back in her mouth when he cocked the gun and readied to shoot her.

Marybeth ran over to Giovanni actually scared his men would shoot her and she clinged to him tightly. Marybeth looked at Leonardo and then Giovanni as he told Leonardo to say sorry and she stared at him as he apologized. “It’s ok you’re only doing your job.” She said softly still clinging to Giovanni still scared out of her mind. She had never had a gun pointed at her and it really freaked the crap out of her.

“How about you give me back my Luca and we leave here…” she said in a shy voice her hands still glued to his shirt like she was never going to let go of him, and if he said no she probably would never let go of him.

 

[bigbadvoodoodaddy]

Giovanni laughed as he said "Let me start off by telling you miss Mallon that I do not fear you, your father or any of his men because our families have been at war for decades with each other and I've seen many great men on both sides of this war die a horrible death. Also I want to say that our fathers are both egotistical, ignorant fools who cannot see the possibilities that we have in front of them and I refuse to be like that. I mean we are the future of our own family and right now there is a opportunity’s for us to bring forth the one thing that both of our fathers have been working towards their entire lives and have yet to succeed” Giovanni said smiling at her “Of course that’s if you’re willing to sit down and talk with me. So, now that we have that out of the way I would love a shoulder massage if you wouldn't mind you see dealing with asshole's all the time makes my body tense and tension isn't a good thing to have when you're in my line of work" Giovanni said being a smart ass just like she was at that time but he did it in a playful manner trying to cut the tension in the air with a small joke. That was when Marybeth ran over to him and clung to him for her life and he knew from that moment she had never actually been a part of this side of the family business "Let me tell you something Marybeth my offer of staying here and dancing is still an option if you so wish to accept my offer I was actually enjoying the dance we were sharing together” he said smiling at her honestly “But again if you so wish to just leave with Luca Brasi then you are more than welcome to leave the door is that way and my offer stays good as well even if you leave. If you ever want to come back to dance then you know where to find me.”

“Sir are you sure that you should let these two leave like that I mean once Luca gets back to Don Mallon or even back to your father then we’ll have our heads taken off by one of the men” James one of his father’s oldest friends and one of Giovanni’s personal protection detail asked the young soon to be Don with great worry.

“I’m absolutely certain about my decisions don’t ask me stupid questions or you’ll end up slapped just like Leonardo” Giovanni said smiling as he placed his arm around Marybeth carefully as if holding her to his side to protect her.

Luca walked back from the back having been let go by Giovanni Alighieri’s men unharmed for some odd reason all they wanted was his gun but when he came back out his blood began boiling seeing Giovanni with his arm around Marybeth “Hey you Alighieri trash let go of Miss Mallon” he said angrily thinking that Giovanni was hurting the young girl.

 

[SweetMarie]

Marybeth looked at Giovanni and smiled he wasn't as bad as her father let her believe he was handsome, kind, and powerful three things she actually liked. Marybeth's eyes darted over to James as he spoke "Mr. James am I right?" she looked at him "My father has never denied me something I want. When I wanted a hotel in Vegas I got one, when I wanted a pony for my fourth birthday I got one when I wanted a mink fur coat I got one. I get everything I ever wanted from my daddy I'm his little angel and when I don't get what I want I'm his nightmare." she grinned "Do you want me to be your nightmare too James?" she asked in a very dangerous voice. Sure she was never introduce into the world but she sure as hell was one scary bitch.
Marybeth looked at Giovanni as she huddled up against him like they were a couple. Marybeth saw Luca walking out and she smiled at him and then frowned when he called Giovanni trash. "Luca how rude they could have killed you and you're calling Giovanni trash?" she said crossing her arms. "You should say sorry and if you don't I won't go home!" she crossed her arms over her chest "And maybe I'll have sex with Giovanni too and see what my daddy does to you for allowing me to do so." she grinned wickedly.

 

[bigbadvoodoodaddy]

Giovanni smiled as he watched Marybeth and listened as she spoke to James what she said really kind of hit him though to think of Don Mallon as actually having a heart and giving the best to his daughter especially since his entire life all he had ever heard was about how evil of a man Don Mallon was but it also came from his mother’s mouth who hated Palo Mallon with all his being.

James looked at Marybeth “Well I apologize beforehand for what I am about to say but how does you being a spoiled rotten heiress have anything to do about the situation that we’re in. Fine you go home your daddy finds out you convince him not to kill us. That’s all fine and dandy but if Don Alighieri finds out he’ll have the heads of everyone that works for him including but not limited to his own son. You must remember Alighieri’s and Mallon’s hate each other all because of a fucking fight that happened decades ago between Palo and Niccolo over a young maiden in our village. I know this because there were three of us all of us being best friends. Then all of a sudden they both started fighting over the same girl and things just got crazy from there.”

Giovanni looked at the elder man who stood in front of him. He had been in the family long before Giovanni was even thought of and he knew that this woman they fought over was Marybeth’s mother because he had been told that she picked Palo instead of his own father but that was the past and they needed to work for a better future that was when he heard Luca and he turned slightly ready to defend himself if necessary but then Marybeth got in to it and began talking to Luca and he became shocked hearing her last statement.

Luca stopped hearing Miss Mallon he knew that if he didn’t stop then Marybeth would do exactly what she said. One thing you could always count on was a Mallon doing exactly what they said and Marybeth was no different she was her father’s child after all “Fine.. As much as it pains me to say this I apologize for my rudeness Alighieri” he said not wanting to refer to Giovanni by his first name.

“Let us step aside for a moment we need to talk miss” Giovanni said bowing slightly to Marybeth in a respectful manner before walking over to the bar hoping she’d follow him to the bar so they could speak to each other.

 

[SweetMarie]

Marybeth looked at James as he apologized beforehand of what he was going to say but she glared at him cause the second he said he was apologizing she knew what he was going to say was going to piss her off. “I know about the fight between my papa and Niccolo over my mother I’m not stupid James, and I am told I look a lot like my mother.” She stared him down crossing her arms over her chest.

Marybeth remembered the story or at least how her father told him. “I know my father loves my mother and she loves him… and didn’t Niccolo find another women?” she looked over at Giovanni “He should be over the fact my mother and my father choose each other.” She glared at James.

Luca walked over and she threatened him and it worked with Luca and she grinned she liked that idea and she’d use that as much as she could if she got the chance. “Thank you for apologizing Luca.” She said with a soft smile that made her look like the perfect doll.

Marybeth looked at Giovanni as he wanted to talk to her. Marybeth looked at Giovanni as he walked away and she bit down on her lower lip pulling it into her mouth and took a deep breath. “Luca I’ll be back and then we’ll go back home after I’m done talking to Giovanni.” She said and walked away from him following Giovanni “What did you wanna talk to me about?”

 

[bigbadvoodoodaddy]

Giovanni smiled as Marybeth followed him to where he was sitting and he ordered himself another beer before turning around to look at her “Listen I know we’re sworn enemies because of the ignorance of both of our father’s but that doesn’t mean that you and I have to follow in their footsteps unlike my father I look toward the future wondering how we can better ourselves instead of fighting over a woman that led to many great wars. You and I we are much alike, the only thing separating us from greatness is our last names” Giovanni spoke softly but he knew what he was talking about having been brought into the family to do hits and things from a very young age. “Instead of fighting over your mother like our fathers did how about instead we do an equal fifty, fifty merge between our families. That is what is keeping us from the greatness that our families have been fighting for, for over thirty years. If the Alighieri’s and Mallon’s worked together there’d be twice as much money, twice the man power and we could literally take over the city and be the top. You and I could run this new family together” he said taking her hand in his he stared into her eyes hoping that she saw the sheer brilliance of his plan. “Now I know I’m an Alighieri and you’ve been raised to think of us as some evil, sadistic, lying scum that will stab you in the back without a second thought but that isn’t me. I am hoping that you will work on your father into agreeing to have a family meeting between our two families. You, your father, mother and six of your best guards sitting across from my father, mother, six of our best guards and myself. If you’d like I can send James with you he is the peace-keeper between both families since he was both of their friends.”

Luca looked at James “You’re a traitor James you work for neither the Alighieri’s nor the Mallon’s yet you live off of the wealth of both men. You are worse than a rat you are a spineless pathetic piece of shit who dares not carry a name for you know that the other would shoot you down.”

“See that’s where you are wrong you brainless twit. I refuse not to carry the name Alighieri or Mallon for they were both my best friends and I shall never choose one side or the other because that is morally wrong it’d be like choosing a favorite child. It is absolutely disgusting” James said looking at her “But think as you will Luca for I am not willing to ruin a nice suit on an overgrown gorilla with a gun like you.”

 

[SweetMarie]

Marybeth followed Giovanni close behind him as he sat down she moved in next to him watching his every little move almost as if she were studying him. “We’re not sworn enemies our parents are.” She said bluntly as she leaned over and ordered herself a Coca-Cola. “I don’t plan on following in my fathers footsteps EVER!” she took her cup of soda from the bartender and took a sip. “Our last names have nothing to do with greatness Giovanni.” She said wisely “Or greatness starts with ourselves so the only thing holding us back is really ourselves… but I know where you’re getting at.” She took another sip. “If our families could work together it would be nice… but that’s hopeful wishing our fathers hate each other and I don’t think that will ever stop.” She chuckled when he mentioned what her father tried imprinting into her mind. “I was told those things but when I first met you those words were quickly erased you’re not that bad.”
Marybeth looked at him biting down on her lower lip. “I am sure I can arrange that kind of meeting but I don’t think much will come of it Giovanni after all our father’s hate for one another is great.” Marybeth looked at James eyeing him “If you are such a friend to both families why haven’t I met you before James?” she asked “I have met millions of my fathers friends but never you.” She said crossing her eyes suspicious of him.
Marybeth’s eyes darted over to Luca as he spoke of him being a traitor. “Shut up Luca.” She snap at him with anger. “This is an A” she pointed to herself “And B” she pointed to both Giovanni and James “Conversations so C your way out of it!” she said pointing away from them and to the door then looked back at James.

 

[bigbadvoodoodaddy]

Giovanni smiled as he said “Well you know as well as I do Marybeth we shall never be anything more than the Don of our family. Our fathers have already written that in stone. The only way for us to have peace is to finish what our parents have tried to achieve in the last few decades of their life and you know this to be true my beautiful darling” he said placing his hand on her cheek lightly as he called her beautiful. “Our last names hold us back because no matter where we go everyone knows of The Devil and The Butcher’s legacy I mean how many times have you went out only to find out that your father killed an innocent person’s family trying to get at my father or one of our men because I can tell you almost every time I am out here I hear about another innocent death” Giovanna took a deep breath trying not to cry as he said “I had a woman come up to me less than one week ago telling me that my father killed her husband and three kids. A twelve year old, six year old and two month old. They died because my father thought he noticed one of your father’s men walking so he sent a car full of men to riddle the Mallon guard with bullets but instead he killed four innocents.”

“You ask me why you have never met me” James said smiling “It’s simple I do not get involved with him and his business associates I come to him directly we talk and then I leave to go to Niccolo and we talk. Trust me Marybeth I was there when you were born I held you in my arms and you were such a beautiful girl with a head full of hair. If you want to do what you and Giovanni are trying to do then I would be a great help to both of you. Also thank you for speaking up Marybeth but you mustn’t worry about protecting me I have diplomatic immunity and if Luca were to touch me your father would kill him personally. I am a liaison between both families and try my best to keep war from ensuing but neither Don’s want to listen to me because their hatred for each other surpasses their good judgment.”

Giovanni smile as he said “Well then it is final you and James will get your father to agree and Jams and I will get my father to agree then once we have them both in the same room you and I will give them our idea of a merger between both families since that would give both men everything they both wanted before they eventually die of old age. It’d be nice to give them what they always wanted” Giovanni said smiling “But before we give them what they want. May I have a dance with the most beautiful woman in this entire club” he asked holding his hand out toward Marybeth.

Marybeth looked at the both of them as they talked to her and she was sure James was telling the truth after all if he was really a go between he probably wouldn’t lower himself to be seen with either of the families in the thought of not wanting to be seen as an enemy by the other.

Marybeth looked at Giovanni as he smiled and she wondered what he was smiling about but she figure that out later. “I am sure James and I will be able to convince my father to come to a meeting with your father…” she stared at Giovanni’s beautiful face and folded her hands in front of her as he spoke about getting his father to agree as well. “The thing is Giovanni…” she stopped when he called her beautiful again and she was like putty in his hands she was like that with most guys especially if they had guts enough to call her beautiful. “Ok…” she said blushing as she reached out taking his hand in hers and walked with him out onto the dance floor.

“Giovanni what kind of deal are we gonna have to make to get our parents to agree to a merger between both our families? I’m sure my father isn’t willing to give my mother over to your father…” she moved into him as she rested her head against her chest even if it wasn’t a slow song she wanted to dance with him like this. She wanted to feel his body warmth to have a man’s body pressed against hers.

James nodded happily at Marybeth as she grasped the concept of why he had never been seen with her father and the other associates. Palo and Niccolo knew what he did and they understood but if one of the business associates of the two men were to find out about him they would not understand about his situation and would kill him on the spot.

Giovanni smiled as they began swaying back and forth in a loving manner “You see darling we play to their egos and that is how we get them to agree. Instead of letting my father have your mother we give them something they both want…Money, power and fame. We tell them that if they merge we’ll have a neutral third party take the money, split it in half and then each of us get half which makes both of us get two times the money. Not only that but we tell them that if they merge together and co-lead the new family they’ll have the power, strength and fame that they’ve been working their whole life to get” he said smiling at her “That way they’ll have to agree because I know my father but money, power and fame that sounds like the thing he’s always wanted” though now he had a strange urge so he leaned down and kissed Marybeth lightly he didn’t know why he did it but it just felt right.

Marybeth swayed with Giovanni to the music that played around them. She looked up at him when he called her darling and she smiled at that word. She wondered if he was calling her that cause he liked her or if he was just using that word to help him explain himself either way she didn't care she enjoyed how it sounded coming off his lips. "A neutral third party huh?" she said her head resting against his should and chest listening to his heart beat. "Money and power is something my father loves but fame I'm not sure about..." she never picked up her ear from his chest as they swayed.
"I wish I were older." she said softly as she swayed with him "Cause I would deffinatly marry you."
She didn't think her words would bother him to much as she held onto him still swaying with the music that played around them. "I mean if you wanted to marry me and I think it'd help our parents approve of the merger that is." she didn't want to look up nervous that he wouldn't like the idea of marrying her.

Giovanni smiled as he said "Yes we could have someone that both of our father's trust like James take in all the money that both of our families make after paying the taxes that need to be paid he puts two even amounts on either side of a table and then we both make the same amount. Then we can change our name to something that wont be more about one Don and let them rule together as the friends they were years ago.

"Why do you wish away your fun years" Giovanni asked when he heard her about marrying him and with that Giovanni lifted her chin so she was looking at him in the eyes "You must never wish away your life for that only causes problems trust me. What you do is live for the moment and love every moment of your life" slowly he leaned down and kissed Marybeth lovingly not caring who saw them kissing he liked her alot already and this just felt right to him so that's exactly what he did.
