This idea came to me out of the blue and I want to try it out. I love the response to Kings of the Bronx but I have seriously lost my mojo for that series for the time being so this and To Love Honor and Obey will have my focus for now. I hope to get some reviews and pimps for this.
Thank you so much.
Second to none.

Two in the morning will forever be the worst time of the night for me. It was two in the morning when Jasper, my husband's right hand man showed up at my house covered in blood and crying his eyes out apologizing.
-Flashback-
"Jas? What's wrong, what happened?" I asked sleepily after being jarred awake by pounding on my front door.
"B, you gotta come to the hospital, it was an accident, they came in from all sides, we had no fucking way out" he cried pulling me towards the door.
"Jasper, what are you talking about, I can't go anywhere, I have three children sleeping upstairs, where is-" I instantly felt this searing pain in my chest, it was so intense I was gasping for air.
"B, you gotta, fuck, you gotta come with me" he declared.
"My kids, Jasper, I gotta go to my kids" I said rushing for the stairs.
-End Flashback-
That night, I had to come to terms with the fact that my children, my son Caius who was 5 my son Marcus who was 4 and my daughter Brielle who was three months old would never know their father. They would never hear that big booming laugh, or see that backwards Dallas Cowboys hat, would never know the look of intensity in his big blue eyes when he was deep in thought.
I felt like I was going underwater, and I didn't know if I would ever surface again. It was like Emmett was my oxygen and I needed him to survive.
I had been with Emmett since I was fourteen years old. I had our first baby when I was seventeen and he was twenty two. We got married that summer. I knew Emmett was different from the moment I met him, I knew from the people he hung around with and how they reacted to him, and the first time I met Dr. Volturi, I was sure something wasn't right.
I asked Emmett about it, and the first couple of times, he blew it off. Then certain things about him began to click, he was glued to his cell phone and black berry and whenever they rang he would disappear.
The Confession (flash back)
"Emmett, can I ask you something?" I asked, we were naked in his father's penthouse apartment in front of a fire; I was only sixteen at the time.
"B, you know you can ask me anything bunny" he said touching my chin, he had always called me bunny, from the first time we met.
"Emmett, where do you work?" I asked looking up at him.
"Bunny, I'll tell you when the time is right, just trust me alright, but know I will always keep you safe" he said reaching down and kissing me, I deepened the kiss and before I knew it I was riding him in front of floor to ceiling windows on the fifty fifth floor the New York sky line twinkling behind me moaning like a porn star, screaming his name..
A few days later, I was sitting at home with Charlie, the out of work alcoholic who use to be a cop and called himself my father, when the cops came to the door.
Charlie answered the door, and at first, I thought they were some of his old friends, but then when he let them in wearing a look of fury I had no idea what's going on.
"Are you Isabella Swan?" the officer asked.
"Yes, I am, why?" I questioned
"We are looking for Jasper Volturi, have you seen him lately?" the cop asked
"I don't know anyone by that name, sorry" I said
"You mean to tell me you're fucking his little brother, and you have no idea who Jasper is, Charlie, man you need to school your little lamb about the wolf pack she just associated herself with, and Bella, if you remember anything, call us" he said handing me his card.
I called Emmett before my dad could speak.
"Bunny, what's wrong?" he asked when he answered
"Why are the police coming to my house asking about your brother?" I questioned.
I heard some mumbling and rustling and then Emmett rushed me off the phone, saying he had to find his brother.
That night Emmett texted me and told me go on the internet and google Carlisle Volturi, and call me in the morning.
I spent almost four hours on the internet reading stories about the reigh of terror that was the Volturi crime family, they had knocked out the four other major crime families in our area and had expanded to Las Vegas California Chicago and were moving into New York. Carlisle was rumored to have done all these terrible horrible things, but they never had any proof, so thus far, his record was squeaky clean.
Emmett's name was mentioned a few times. I read as he was rumored to be some kind of drug king pin. Then it all clicked into place, the money, the meetings, the pointed looks for Carlisle whenever he was talking to Emmett.
The next morning, I skipped school and went straight to Emmtt's.
"Drugs guns and prostitutes huh?" I asked as he opened the door.
"I was gonna tell you bunny, but I wasn't sure, you know with your daddy and all" he said closing the door and sitting down on the couch
"Emmett, after all this, you think I would leave you cause of that? What would make me leave you is lying to me, either way, you are who you are, I love you" I whispered and straddled his lap.
I made a decision that day, as Emmett drove into me from behind telling me I belong to him, that he would always be mine, that no matter what anyone claimed that Emmett said or did, I would always stand beside him.
-End Flashback-
I woke up with a start, I was gasping for breath and I looked at the unfamiliar room, and the unfamiliar surroundings, I sobbed uncontrollably for hours alone in the dark. I wanted this pain in my chest to go away, I just wanted to be normal, and if I was going to be normal, I had to leave this life behind.

I crawled out from under Tanya when my phone rang, it was the boss, Carlisle, but on my caller ID, I just read dad. I never made him wait when he called, no one made Dr. Volturi wait, and yes the fucker was a doctor, but at the same time, he used his skills as a surgeon to torture fuckers into telling him what he wanted to know.
"This is Cullen" I answered. I had to hold back a moan when my cock was engulfed by a warm wet mouth. I smiled down at the two blondes fighting on who got to take me down there throat first.
"We have a problem, I need you in Chicago by morning" he said and the line went dead. I groaned and went back to whom or shall I say who I was doing.
After I fucked Tanya and Irina into comas, I got up and showered and called the airline. I walked into the closet and got ready, signature dark pinstriped suit crisp white collared shirt, black tie and headed to the airport.
I arrived promptly at eight am the next morning at the Volturi mansion and was immediately confused. There was a black ribbon draped over the front gates of the house and I immediately wondered who we'd lost. I walked in the house and saw a gorgeous woman, she had an amazing curvy body a large handful of breast that filled out her dress perfectly, and long hair wavy and down to her waist and the color was like chocolate with reds and golds. She was holding a small baby and walking with two small boys.
"Hey, do you know where Dr. Volturi is?" I asked her
She sniffled and whispered she didn't know and jumped out of her skin when Carlisle whispered from behind her, "I'm right here sweetheart"
"Doc, you alright, what's the problem?" I said looking between him and the crying girl
The girl began to openly sob and I must have looked lost.
"We lost Emmett last night son, warehouse raids by the DEA" he spoke softly as he rubbed Bella's back.
Right then I swear I almost fainted. Emmett, how the fuck did we lose Emmett, Emmett was a beast in this game, you never got close to him unless he wanted you too. I looked down and I knew instantly who these children belonged too, I had been made the Capo of the west end, I ran our interests Las Vegas, so I rarely ever came to Chicago. Emmett and I talked dam near every day, we were still as close as we were when we were kids, but I hadn't seen the kid in like five years, I'd been busy, and apparently so had he, the fucker had gotten married and had three kids.
I had seen pictures of him Bella and the kids when my mother had come out to visit and would always gush about Emmett and say how proud she was of him. He had been my best friend since I was six, his father and my father had joined the thing, Our thing, together, and Emmett's father was serving a life bid without the possibility of parole, he never talked and for that they made an example of him and for that he was one of the most respected Captain's our outfit ever had, and Emmett carried his name proudly.
"I'm sorry for your loss Mrs, McCarty" I said reaching down and taking her hand into mine, she was to be respected, and hell I'm sure most of the other wives probably feared her. And I, well I was picturing what those plump little lips would feel like pressed against mine. Wait, it's too soon for that right? I thought in my head.
"I'm being rude, Isabella, Tesoro, this is Emmett's brother and my son, Edward, Edward, this is Emmett's wife, Bella, and his sons, Caius and Marcus, and this little beauty here" He said lifting the little girl out of Bella's arms "Is Brielle, Emmett's baby girl"
"I uhh, I heard so much about you Edward, I'm sorry we have to meet like this" she said softly shaking my hand.
"I am so sorry for your loss, seriously, if you or the kids, ever need anything, I will handle it" I said staring into her eyes. They looked dull and lifeless like she had aged and was carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders.
"Edward, can we speak in my office?" my father said kissing each of the babies cheeks and handing her to her mother.
"Isabella, I think the children could use a nap, and you could use the rest" he suggest but his tone said otherwise.
She just nodded and led the children to the grand staircase I watched her hips move as she walked, dam, she was fine as hell.
I was still thinking of her when the door to my father's office closed, and suddenly I felt closed in like something wasn't right.
"Want a drink?" he asked
"Nah, I'm good, so what did you need?" I asked
"I need you back in Chicago, I want to move some things around, and I think that you would do good in Emmett's old position, I mean all of them" he said sitting down leaning back in his chair.
"What are you talking about?" I asked sipping the bottle of water he'd sat down in front of me.
"She is going to take those kids and run, and I need to know she will stick around, I need insurance she will keep her mouth shut" he said nodding.
"So what the hell does that have to do with me, the girl just lost her husband, she didn't even see me" I said
"Make her see you, turn on the Volturi charm, no woman can resist that shit" he said draining his tumbler.
"You're delusional old man, besides, I got Tanya and Irina back in vegas, and I like my life with them, she has three kids, children hate me" I defended.
"You're coming back to Chicago Edward, I giving you the Sotto Capo, you're going to court her, and in time maybe you'll learn to love her, if not, you kill her" he said darkly.
"She's your daughter in law, what the fuck is wrong with you" I asked
"Emmett was like my son, he wasn't my son, I loved him, but I refuse to have any of my family do time behind him or a little bitch that can't keep her cock sucker shut" he smacked his hand down on the desk.
"it's no wonder mom can't stand your ass, but fine, I need a month, I need time to settle my shit in Vegas" I said getting up.
"Edward you have two weeks and you will be back here, don't make me come to Vegas" he said as I slammed the door behind me.
I walked out of the office and right into my mother.
"He is one sick motherfucker, and I seriously don't know how the fuck you deal with him" I seethed.
"Maybe I just hoped eventually someone will take mercy on me and put him out of his misery" she said and kept walking.
My family both business and blood were fucking whacked.
