~~ BELLA'S POV ~~
"You see, if you don't sign these papers, I might... might? I will blow up both your mum and mother-in-law... well, I don't know how much you love your mother-in-law, but I do know you love your mum a lot... so just sign these goddamn papers!" she screamed, but I kept a smile on my face.
"Some dreams of ours never seem to see daylight," I sighed.
"Alright, what's the use of so much power and money when it would just cost me my mum's life, and I can easily get the same powers since my husband is also powerful?" I pouted.
"I'll do as you say, but I also have to admit that you're very foolish for joining an alliance with that rascal... it's not in my place to judge you, though. Just give me a minute; I'll phone Kiara," I gave her a sweet smile.
"Why?"
"She's my right-hand person, and I need her as a witness. Also, these papers wouldn't make a difference even if I sign them because they don't have GP's signature, so she'll have to prepare the right papers."
"Okay," she said with a calm smile.
[Prepare the papers or have you Go sign her death warrant?]
"You did your part, now let me do mine and take my revenge with gladness, okay?"
"Who are you talking to?" I looked up to find Ella staring.
"Oh, it's no one, just myself."
"You're behaving like a lunatic," she rolled her eyes.
"Yeah, after all, you made me like that," I said in a sadistic tone.
"Excuse me?" she raised an eyebrow.
"It's nothing. So when can I get to meet Mia?"
"Since you agreed to do what I want, I'll let you meet her. But she isn't here at the moment. I already asked my men to bring her over; it will take some time for them to arrive."
"Alright."
If only you knew what I have in store for you, dearest elder sister, you wouldn't be sitting here comfortably. And I am surely going to give you a painful death for all your past mistakes, even the ones you don't remember.
"Hello," Kiara picked up the call on the third ring.
"Kiara, I have finally been relieved of my duties," I said with a smile.
"Bella, are you okay?" she said in a 'you're surely up to no good' tone, and I smiled, knowing she already knew I was up to no good.
"Oh yes, baby. I want to transfer the power of attorney to my sister," I said, and I could hear silence from the other end of the phone.
"You see, she can track Mia, Mum, and my mother-in-law's location and held them captive. I don't see the use of so much power if it leads to the death of my family, so I have decided to give her everything," I sighed.
"Okay, I'll do as you've instructed," she said, making me smile. Kiara and I share a special understanding, and that's why no one can ever take her place as my right-hand person. Butterfly was right, because I never regretted my decision.
"That was quick," Ella said, taking a sip from her drink.
"Oh no, sister, we aren't done yet, Kiara," I said, placing the phone on speaker.
"Yes, boss?"
"One more thing... hold on, what am I doing? And why am I giving up my hard work just because of people that don't matter? Mia is no one to me, mother-in-law is also nothing to me, and my mum... hmm, yes, I do love her, but nothing means the world to me more than power and money, and she doesn't deserve such a sacrifice."
"What are you trying to say?" Ella said sternly, raising her voice.
"Eish... I hate noise."
"Don't forget she's your mother, the same one you almost killed my mum for."
"And who cares? Also, if she didn't get married to that asshole you call a father, then I would never have been your sister, and we wouldn't have ever crossed paths."
"What are you trying to say, Bella? Stop this attitude you're putting up, and remember you stabbed our dad to protect her."
"Point of correction, he's your dad, not mine. And yes, I did stab him to protect her, but after thinking about it, I guess it was a waste of energy, and your dad was lucky he didn't go off to the afterlife." I waved my hands and lay stretched lazily on the couch, placing my phone on the table as the color drained from her face.
Tsk tsk tsk, dearest sister, I am just getting started, and you're already in shock when I haven't even shown you my main surprise. In this game of kings, there is and will only be one queen, and that's me.
"But Kiara, I still want you to transfer the power of attorney to her. You know I am no saint, and the police have been on the hunt for the famous mafia queen, so if I hand over everything, I'll be a free man walking down the street with no confrontation. So let's make things easy for her and give her the popularity she deserves.
The casinos under my control where drugs are shipped from Thailand and Mexico are being sold, the ammunition supply, the drug supply, and the killing of the entire Accardo family should be put in her name."
"Bella!"
"Oh, it isn't enough... alright, Kiara, don't forget the robbery of the president and counterfeiting of the currencies transferred from the world bank to Deutsche Bank, the breaking free of the Black Scorpion gang from jail, and the killing of one hundred and fifty police officers... also the infiltration of legitimate business. All these crimes of mine should be placed in her name since she's the new Mafia queen."
"Bella, stop, this isn't funny."
"Give me a minute, big sister. Kiara, inform GP that I am no longer the Mafia queen, and that his dearest granddaughter, Ella, is our new queen. And her photo should be published in every newspaper with #Revelation of the true identity of the notorious Mafia queen. We both know the world has been waiting to catch a glimpse of the mafia queen." I said with a smirk as I could tell she was losing it.
"Hell no! I am never going to accept all those allegations because I never did any of that," she screamed, and I couldn't help but smile, seeing her confidence shatter to the ground.
'What a fool she is... she thinks being a mafia is a day's job,' I scoffed.
"But they aren't allegations, baby. They are like little awards, and you have no other choice than to accept them."
"Shut up, just shut up!" she screamed, pointing her gun at me
"I know you're trying to play games with me. Now sign those fucking papers," she said with a shaking hand, and I just sighed, looking at her. I always knew her mom was behind all the confidence she shows, and without her, she's just a scared cat trying to be a tiger.
"And what if I don't?" I retorted, and her men, including her, pointed a gun at me. "Ahh, I'll sign it, please don't kill me... Hehehe, isn't that what you wanted to hear?" I looked at her with eyes filled with disgust.
"The truth is, you all are cowards. Although you've stripped me of my weapons, and there's a total of... two, four, six... twenty-four, including you, making them twenty-five people, you're still scared. Tell me something, am I that scary, or is it that you are all incompetent fools?" I questioned, raising an eyebrow.
"Bella, one more word from you, and I'll blow off your head, not minding if you sign these damn papers or not."
"Then go on... or are you afraid that you won't be able to kill me?" I smirked, adding more fuel to the fire and not breaking our eye contact. Then she suddenly pulled the trigger, and I dodged the bullet, allowing it to hit one of her men standing behind me.
"Oops, you killed one of your men yourself... one down, twenty-four to go," I said, laughing hard, and her face turned as red as a tomato.
"I am going to send you to hell," she scoffed.
"Then please do it, as it's not the first time you've sent me there, and even the devil doesn't want me around... but I'll give you a chance, shoot me now." I stood up and walked towards the bottles of wine on the table, spreading my hands apart.
"Ten... nine... eight... seven... six... five... four... three... two... one... times up!" I screamed, throwing two bottles at the men pointing their guns against me, cutting them off guard. I ran towards the direction of the ones still trying to comprehend what just happened and used them as a shield as the remaining men started an open fire on me.
As the body I held became heavier, I placed my hand in his pocket, took his gun, and threw him to the side while I hid behind the little bar.
"Bella, get your ass out here! I know you can hear me!" Ella screamed.
"As you wish, dear sister," I smirked, taking a peep at the remaining people I had to send to hell.
"I hope the devil has enough room in hell for you all," I said, aiming at the men guarding Ella. Pulling the trigger, I managed to put a bullet into the brains of six of her men, and I only had sixteen left. Time to have fun. I tapped my watch and activated the bombs my alliance, who were in disguise, planted in the building. I always have an ace up my sleeve.
[I can't help but pat myself on the back for making the right choice in choosing you.]
"Hmm, let's turn up the heat a bit... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1..."
BOOM!
The first bomb went off.
"3... 2... 1..."
BOOM!
The second boom went off. I took a peep at Ella, whose worry was written all over her face, as almost half of her remaining men were dead; it seems they sacrificed their lives for hers.
BOOM!
The last explosion went off, sending her and her remaining men flying. I also could feel the effect, but thank goodness I was lying flat on the ground. I quickly stood on my feet before Ella's remaining men could recover from the shock. I could hear them groaning in pain, and without thinking twice, I pulled the trigger, driving a bullet between their eyes.
"Now it's just the both of us," I smirked, not breaking eye contact with Ella. From her looks, one could tell she wasn't scared, but terrified.
