Chapter 1
*Antoine Lombardi*
I met my daughter's mother while visiting America on business. She was a wonderful woman. I could not resist her caramel complexion. The woman had an exotic look to her. At the same time, I am having lunch with her father, Dante Black. Dante Black is the head of the Black Guerrilla Mafia in New Jersey. He owns several software companies I was looking to buy. Many thought he was about the streets, but he is brilliant.
His daughter and I hit it off that night and went on a date. We ended up having a one-night stand. I obtained a software business and met a beautiful woman. It was a magical night, but I told her I was married and would never leave my wife. She didn't have a problem with that. Her name was Latasha Black. Latasha was excellent, and we kicked hard for the entire two weeks while I was there doing business with her father. It was a successful trip.
I went home to my wife, Mislabel Lombardi. Of course, I told my wife about my slip-up, and she forgave me. We had a strong marriage like that. Sicilians don't believe in divorce. Then a month later, I received a call from her saying she was pregnant. I didn't panic about that. I told her to come to Italy until the baby was born. That way, her father never had to know about the baby. After we talked, my wife contacted her father and told him she wanted his daughter to intern for a fashion line. He agreed because he never knew of my situation with his daughter.
Please don't get it twisted; my wife was distraught. But she said she would accept this child with open arms. Latasha agreed to sign the child over to my wife and me. So, she came and stayed with my family. Then I gave birth to my beautiful daughter Gemma Fabiana Lombardi. When my wife laid eyes on my daughter, she fell in love instantly. Latasha never held her, only saw her. It was what my wife wanted, so it was done. Latasha stays another week and then returns to America, where she marries one of her father's enforcers. When my oldest son met his sister for the time, he was 13. He also fell in love with her. I explained that she was his sister despite having a different mother. Gemma looks exactly like my oldest son, who is named after me. Currently, 19 years later, they are incredibly close. I have three other sons as well. But Gemma is my baby. She adores my family by all the men. No one goes on dates, my daughter. To date my daughter, you must go through my sons and me. Not my mention, my brother is the head of the Italian Mafia.
She is a brilliant young lady. Gemma started college at the age of 13. Now she is 19 and a brilliant scientist and inventor. My daughter is the fourth wealthiest person in the world. She has been inventing since she was five. Many people don't know that, however. We keep her shelter a lot. My daughter has never dated ever. Don't get me wrong, and she is beautiful. When she went to college, she always traveled with six bodyguards. Her brother, my son Junior, is the CEO of her company. All my sons work with my daughter. My oldest brother is Santos Lombardi, the Don of the Italian Mafia.
No one gets much on my daughter. Her biological called me last week wanting to meet her. She told her father about my daughter. She spends a lot of time with my brother. He wants to meet her, but I'd like to know if my shelter daughter needs to meet him.
*Fabiana Lombardi*
Many people don't understand why I accept my husband's bastard. Well, it's simple I fell in love with her on sight. She is excellent and has been inventing since she was five. We built her lab in our house. The most fantastic thing invented was artificial organs. Many family members have some of their organs, keeping them alive. She is currently working on weapon designs for the government. Next month we traveled to America, so she met with the president of the US states. She is starting to make a name for herself.
I recently talked to my parents about how they felt about my daughter meeting her biological mother's family. My father thinks it would be good for her to meet Dante Black, head of the Black Guerrilla Mafia. My parents were against it. Then I asked my daughter the look, and I wondered why. I already have a mother; I don't need another one. That made me feel so unique and lovely.
Papa said he met him a few years back. He noted that Dante Black was a ruthless man. He has bought many of Gemma's inventions. Some of the weapons are sold illegally as well. She loves her family.
My hubby will ask his father and brother their opinion about her meeting the Black family. I know for a fact that her grandpa isn't going to be happy about it. He is overprotective of her. When we travel to the United States, we take 20 guards to the States with us. Five of them are women, and their bitches are deadly. They are always with my daughter. Poor thing is never alone that is overprotective of the men in her family. She has no friends, just family. Most girls in the family don't like her cause she is too intelligent. It's hard to have a conversation with her.
Now she is extremely close to my friendly Mira. They are the same age but so different, but still close. Mira is a doctor, and she wants the family. She is another smart one in our family. She started college at 13 as well.
Another treasure of the family. That is the oldest brother's daughter. She is traveling with us to the States with my daughter. Did I mention my daughter speaks ten languages fluently? She often travels with her father. She is often mistaken as a lover. Can you believe that crap? When my husband saw that, he told the world she was his daughter. We often appear on tv with our daughter.
I do feel sorry for whoever tries to get my daughter. No man will be good enough for her. I was primarily dealing with my husband, father, and uncles. Please don't worry about leaving out her brothers. I remember Marco brought a few of his friends home one time. Gemma was lying by the pool with Mira in bikinis. When they saw her, they at once started to holler at them. That is the correct term. Well, anyway, my sons and their father stepped outside. And let me tell you, and they went in on the boys. One boy looked like he wanted to cry. My daughter would have already shot them down if they had paid attention. I had to get them.
She doesn't like stupid men. It would be best if you were on her level to get her attention. My daughter is an intellectual type of person. She wants to talk about things that matter. Fashion is something other than what she will talk about. She has an assistant who shops for her and keeps it in fashion. And that assistant is family. No one gets close to my daughter. She is so used to it doesn't bother her.
Dante Black is the only person my husband will let me meet her. It's best for now. Then after we meet, he will decide if she should meet the rest of the family. If he said no, then she would see it as the law. Besides, she is daddy's girl in her heart.
