Brianna

The dark room was silent and the only sounds that could be heard was the heavy breathing of the helpless man and the sound of my heels clicking on the concrete floor. "Boss-"
"Hush baby boy," I whispered and played with the knife that was in my hands. "You didn't want to say anything so I guess you'll just have to pay the consequence." I then begun circling his throat with it. "No, no, no. I will speak."
I tilted my head to the side, "Oh?" I let out surprisingly. A smirk creeped up and I continued to circle the man. A few moments later I still didn't hear a word from him and I sighed mockingly and took seat and waited for him to answer. "Don't you know it's rude to keep a lady waiting?"
He let out a shaky breathe before stuttering. "I- I was sent to kill you," No shit. I decided not to say anything and just waited for him to continue. It wasn't a surprise that yet another person wanted me out of the game. But I think that they all needed to realize that I wasn't so easy to get rid of and some people were just not meant to reach the top.
Saying it like that can obviously frustrate some egotistical men and for their best men not be able to kill me must've caused some of those people's lives because if you failed at killing someone in such a game, you were proclaimed incompetent and your services were no longer needed and that's the day that your life would end. But failing to kill me, must've really hurt their egos.
But just because I was apart of the game didn't mean that the same went for the people who worked for me.
I was the authority and I had the power to make my own rules.
I sighed growing tired. "Who was it this time?"
"Will my life be spared?" He asked releasing a shaky breath. "I give you my word," I said truthfully.
"It was Samuel." My eyes widen and my brows furrowed.
But no. It was just a name. There were so many other Samuels in the world I couldn't be triggered by it. But the man confirmed my unwanted thought.
"Chris Pollo's brother,"
I suddenly felt nauseous and I didn't know what to do. I decided not to say anything but I looked to my right hand man, Lorenzo and gave him a knowing look. He nodded his head and left the room.
I got up from the stool and the sounds of my heels clicked once again. "Untie him,"
And without another word, I left the room.

A knock was heard by the three of us and that's when we knew papa was back home. "Okay so you two know that your father is bringing a guest home and I want you guys to behave and treat our guest nicely okay?"
My brother and I both nodded our heads with a big smile that was on my face. Once my mom disappeared we knew that she was on her way to the door and I heard a few other voices. And I knew one of them belonged to papa.
"Look who's home kids," I heard my mother say and I run into papas open arms and hugged him. My brother did the same as papa hugged both us at the same time. "I missed you guys so much," I heard my papa say as he finally let go.
"Look at who came to see you all." Papa said and I looked up to the taller man who had dark brown hair. "Hey little munchkins," he smiled.
"And who is he?" My brother asked. "That's papas best friend,"
"Kids, you may not remember him but this is Chris. He is your uncle."
"I'm going to call you uncle C," I smiled and he smiled back at me. "My boy aren't you going to greet him?" My mom raised her eyebrows but still smiled.
"Hi," he simply said. "Lorenzo don't be so ru-" but uncle C stopped her. "It's okay Esther."
"Okay then. Who wants food?" I jumped up with a big smile. "Me!"
"Let's go,"

I couldn't believe it. My head was still trying to process everything the man had told me.
A person within the Pollo family was out there and was determined in killing me. And no I am not underestimating myself, I can take care of myself. It's not my life that I'm worried about, it's the lives of the people that I love as well.
And the brother of my worst enemy was back.
Welcome everybody, this is my story. I'm Brianna & I've got of people who want me dead. Why? You may ask.
Oh no, it's no big deal. I'm just apart of the biggest Cartel organization to ever exist. And I'm too good for all of them to even handle, I'm too much of an obstacle. I live a double life and technically I'm a devil in disguise. And Lorenzo is my twin brother actually, the brother whom.I should've listened to when he said he never liked nor trusted Chris. a.k.a "Uncle C"
If I would've listened sooner and never gotten closed to my so called "uncle" I probably wouldn't even be in this situation.
Now I needed to fix one more mistake.
