"That's right Miss Morgan, according to the will your uncle has left you this building and the businesses that it houses. I'm aware you were very close to your uncle but had not spoken to him in the past year. I'm sorry we are meeting on such terms." Fin said as he followed her around the second floor of the building. The shelves behind the counter were filled from floor to celling with jars upon jars of dried tea leaves and fruit. The rest of the small place was filled with tea sets of all kinds, caster iron pots, ceramic pots, expensive glass ware she was to afraid to pick up. On another wall were canisters to hold the tea at home and tumblers so one could take their tea on the go. Fin was the Morgan family lawyer, and the young woman was now the owner of this building.

"What are the other two business?" She asked not turning to him. Her curly hair was held back by a pink and white polka dot head wrap and her brown and red curls stopped between her shoulder blades. She picked up a ceramic painted white elephant the left tusk was missing and she smiled at the memory of the trinket before setting it back down on the counter.

"You have this tea shop, a bakery on the first floor, and a bookstore on the third. Your Uncle was a very well rounded man,if I do say so. He wish for you to take it all, and continue to run it." He said and watched as she turned to him.

"Me? Run his business? I don't know anything about running a business." She said with a frown.

"Oh you don't have to worry to much. You have your six faithful employees, and then of course theres me. They've already promised to help make the transition easy for you, Miss Morgan." Fin smiled warmly at the twenty three year old her bright brown eyes dull and worried. "He left all this for you, protect it." She smiled and nodded.

"You're right. There's more paper work to sign isn't there?" She asked as he lead her to the office.

In the past six months Tanya Morgan had settled in nicely to her new businesses, and new life. At the age of twenty four she was quite the successful business woman even though she was still getting use to it all. Her tanned brown skin was wrapped in a flowing blue dress that fit her shapely body and on her feet were silver boots. Her hair was pressed straight and hung around her face. Her eyes widened as she heard a ruckus and then yelling. Moving quickly from around her desk she went to the main floor,the second floor and saw a few men dressed in suits. Her eyes narrowed as she walked to the men. It started as just some men wanting to by her building now it was now a weekly occurrence to see them. "No. What ever your offer is today the answer is No, and you shouldn't be here we're not open." She said walking to the door, and held it open and waited for them to walk out the door. "And if you come again bothering my employees I'm going to call the police." She promised
"You should at least consider it this time. Anyways we'll be back later when your open, Miss Morgan." One of the men said tipping his head to the both of them.
"I'm sure you will." She said with a sigh and locked the door behind them.

As the evening fell over the city and the mobsters were sent away from the business building that Tanya Morgan had been controlling it for the past half year or so. A ringtone resounded from an alleyway in the middle of the city as someone picked up from the shadows.

"Yes?" the person said as he picked up the call.

And so from the other side, another voice resounded "Tanya Morgan, we need her gone, you're getting a two day lead but that's all I can do for you."

The person hung up the conversation and put away his phone and now he started walking slowly from the shadows into the dim lights of the badly lit streets. But It did illuminate himself just enough to be clearly seen by others. a muscular trained body that was hiding behind a black velvet suit that frankly looked the same on every other mafia member. But with him it was a little on the tight side, his body was clearly trained and it could be seen through the suit as he moved. He was wearing brown leather shoes that went well with his suit and finally he came in the light well enough to reveal his face. Light blue eyes reflected the light of the streetlights slightly as the light went over his face which supported a light stubble and a nice complexion all together. He looked handsome by the brown short hair that was combed upwards and reinforced with some hairgel.

Leon Baleto had been an assassin for the mafia for a solid 7 years now, he had gained a lot of respect and known name for his actions. And so they picked him to be the first assassin to be hired for the job. Leon then stepped towards a Black BMW and got into and later left the scene that he had left. He had done another just before he got called, if anybody would go and check in the alleyway, they would find a man with two bullet wounds in his chest.

Leon made his way over to the office building and started checking out the place he had been given through a text message from his boss. He smiled and walked across the road to luckily found a hotel with a clear view on the Building and then went outside back to his car and opened up the trunk as he then got out two suitcases from the trunk and closed it back down in which he afterwards locked it again and went back to the room. Out of one of the suitcase he grabbed binoculairs and started looking to where the woman was actually sleeping.

"Once we've closed up for the day, Lilly, you have to lock the doors. Otherwise those men will keep barging in here uninvited." Tanya said turning to her youngest employee. Tanya had hired the seventeen year old a month after she had completely taken over the business. The young girl was nice to have around especially on the weekends when others wanted a day or two off. Lilly nodded and then went upstairs to the bakery to help clean the kitchen there while Tanya started on inventory of the tea.

After everyone got into the swing of the closing routine the rest of the evening went smoothly for the young woman. Tanya finished up inventory for the tea, did some filing and made a few calls before she went to her office.

The room was something that might remind you of a detective's office from an old black and white film. The room was large and spacious with an oak desk positioned in the middle of the room, a filing cabinet in one corner and a small couch against a wall opposite to one of the two windows in the office. Many nights the couch doubled as a bed for her since she extend her own hours causing her to crash around ten o clock and awake at three in the morning. This night was no different. She walked over to the cabinet and took down a blanket that was folded on top of it,dimmed the lights in the office and laid down to catch a few hours of sleep.

She rolled over hearing the buzzing of her phone across the hardwood floor of the office. Having spent so many nights there she had gotten into a habit of keeping an alarm on her phone to wake her at the early hours in the morning. She leaned over snatching it off of the floor and charger. Her delicate fingers swiped arose the screen silencing the phone before laying it gently on the arm of the couch. Tanya stood to her feet and her hands went high over her head as she stretched. She patted her hand to her lips stifling a yawn and walked to the wall flicking the light on. A habit of never closing the blinds to the two windows allowed the light from her celling fan to spill out of the windows and shine like a beacon on the dark street. Tanya pulled her hand through her straightened hair and took a look around the office. She slipped off the heels she had never bothered to take off earlier and even allowed her dress to tumble to the floor and collect in a pile. She walked around to a duffle bag and pulled out a pair of horns and a plain t-shirt and put them on.

Leon had been observing the business ever since he had arrived at his hotel room. A few bottles of water and two ordered boxes of pizza were laying on the bed as he had eaten them all and had drank about half of the bottles completely empty. He had been observing his target and then later that night found what her office was. There he was spying on his target and as she went to sleep, he started recording on what seemed to be a sleeping woman. He set an alarm to only sleep about 4 hours, he was used to sleeping that few hours as he needed to be awake almost 24/7 to do every job his boss told him to do. And so he did. He woke up early and saw that the lady was still asleep, he grabbed his binoculars again and shut down the recorder and observed her once more. Soon she would wake and now he could see how she slipped out of her dress and revealed her sexy and curved body to him and Leon found himself intrigued by her looks. "Damn" he found himself saying to himself as he saw the gorgeous lady changing into something more comfortable to her.

Leon smiled gently and took a picture with his camera while she was changing as he found her body that intriguing. Leon then continued to move back to his two briefcases and opened up his second out of which he took a few normal clothes. A blue jeans, a white V-neck and some sneakers and started changing. He then continued back over to his bathroom and fixed his hair to look nice and clean as he then continued back to his hotelroom. He grabbed his cellphone and then out of his first briefcase, he drew a fake Curicullum Vitae (Job Interview paper). After that he moved towards his door, grabbed his keycard and followed by going down from the hotel and going up to the office building. He continued by ringing the bell which would normally connect to the office. He then awaited a reply from the ringing.
