I am Zoe Negrete, I was only 15 years old when I received the title of 'La Princesa De La Mafia' or 'The Princess of the Mafia, forcing me to take over my father's 'business', making me the youngest female to lead Texas' booming drug and weapons cartel, after I witnessed the murder of my father, Andres Montero-Negrete, at the hands of the man I had supposedly thought loved me, Seth Rollins.
That was only 10 years ago and since then I have made it my lifelong mission to get my hands on that murderer, I have stepped my game up and I won't rest until that bastard is dead by my own hands, but enough of my quest for revenge, I have other important matters I need to take care of
"Zoe, we need to leave in five minutes to meet up with your uncle in Houston" I looked up from a stack of paperwork to see my loyal bodyguard Roman Reigns
I looked at my watch and noticed he was right; I had to leave for Houston and have a meeting with one of my father's business partners, his brother, Alberto Del Rio
"Alright, just let me sign this and we'll get going, where are the other guys?" I asked him as I signed the document and finally stood up, grabbing my gun and my purse along the way
"They're in Baytown; they might have a lead on Seth so they went over there to investigate"
I sighed in frustration, trying not to let that fact bother me
"I know you want to get your hands on Rollins, but you can't focus your energy on him alone, you have a business to run, baby girl" Roman said, ruffling my hair affectionately
"Damn it Rome, I hate it when you're the voice of reason" I pouted, making him smile
"One of us has to be, baby girl"
"Alright, let's get going, I don't want my uncle having a heart attack because of our tardiness" I replied, giving Roman my car keys
"I get to drive? I feel honored" Roman teased, leading us towards the car garage
"Don't get too comfortable, Samoan Thor" I laughed
I was pulling up to my Uncle Alberto's warehouse when I saw a bunch of cops surrounding the area
"What the hell is going on around here!?" I shouted as I jumped out of my car, Roman close behind me
An officer looked up from his notepad and quickly made his way towards me
"Are you Zoe Negrete?" the officer asked
The Houston Police Department knew who my family was, but never attempted anything against us, due to the fact that my dad would "donate" money to the police in order for them to protect us, mostly me in case something were to happen to him
"I am her"
"I'm Officer John Cena" said the cop as he stretched out his hand and I shook it quickly, Roman doing the same
"What's going on officer?"
"Someone came in shooting up the whole warehouse, attacked the people inside, mostly the person responsible wanted your uncle, Mr. Negrete was badly beaten, he was shot in both legs"
My eyes widened at the news, I held onto Roman's arms as he tried to relax me
"Is he going to be okay, sir?" I asked
"I saw what he looked after we came to the scene, I won't sugarcoat it Miss Negrete, when they pulled him up to the ambulance, he looked unrecognizable, whoever did this messed him up real good" Officer Cena answered sadly
"Oh God…" tears slowly cascaded down my cheeks as Roman held me close to him
"Miss, we need to know, do you know anyone who could be remotely possible for the brutal attack on your uncle?" I looked back at Officer Cena, my eyes quickly changing from sadness to anger
"Seth Rollins…"
"The man that's also responsible for the death of your father?"
"Exactly, before he murdered my dad, he knew that I still kept in touch with my Uncle Alberto because my uncle was the only man who remained faithful to my dad, everyone else in our family would try anything they could to throw them both in jail, but failed, there's a good chance he only attacked my uncle to make a very bold statement towards me"
"What could that statement could that be?" asked the officer
"He's coming for me next"
After Officer Cena finished interrogating me, he gave me his number and with sincere apologies, he went back to the station to investigate the crime further.
I stayed behind with Roman and looked around the warehouse to find any clues that would pin Rollins to the crime, but nothing helped, I only saw dried up blood, it probably belonged to my uncle
"I know for a fact that Seth was involved" I told Roman as we walked out of the warehouse towards my car
"I believe that too, but since we all know that Seth is a wanted man, not just for the death of your dad, the FBI is most likely going to get involved as well" Roman explained as he got on the driver's side
"Fuck, that's just what I needed, to have more people going after the man I want to kill" I hissed, running a hand through my black hair in agitation
"You still set on killing him, Zoe?"
"That's been my plan since the beginning, Reigns" I looked at Roman, and he knew I meant business when I used his last name
"Let's go home, I wanted to visit Uncle Alberto at the hospital, but I know that the other cartel leaders have already found out, so we have to meet up with them and explain to them the situation" I sighed, staring at the scenery as Roman drove us home
The drive home was silent, but it was a rather comfortable silence, even in the situation I was in, when Roman finally drove up, I noticed there was a black Dodge Charger parked in front of the house
"I wonder if one of the cartel leaders arrived already" I said to Roman as I unfastened my seat belt
I stepped out into the chilly November air, and I was met by my only female bodyguard, AJ Lee
"Z, FBI is here, says he wants to talk to you about something related to Rollins" she told me as she adjusted her earpiece
"You know about my uncle's condition?" I asked her
"Only from what I heard on the police scanner, I'm sorry" AJ replied, her face solemn
"I'm seeing him after I have a meeting with the FBI agent and the other cartel leaders, where is the agent?"
"Den" was all AJ said before she turned and left
"Let's get this over with, Roman do me a favor and go to the meeting hall, I want you to make sure the leaders are all here, I'll talk to the FBI agent on my own" I told Roman as I went towards the den
"Are you sure, Zoe?"
"Positive, I will try not to take too much time, now go" Roman nodded then left
I wouldn't admit it out loud, but I was a bit nervous about talking to this FBI agent, maybe the agent was just here to arrest me
I shook my head and made my way towards the den
When I walked into the den, I saw a man in his mid-20's with unruly blonde curly hair in a black leather jacket and black v-neck shirt with dark blue jeans and boots, quite an unconventional look for an FBI agent, but damn did the man look sexy as hell
"Are you the FBI agent that wanted to speak with me?" I asked as I took a seat on the love seat across from him
"I am, I apologize for coming by unannounced, Miss Negrete, but we heard about the attack on your uncle, Mr. Alberto Del Rio, and I have a reason to believe that Seth Rollins was responsible for the assault on your uncle"
I raised my brow in suspicion
"What reason would that be?" I asked the agent
"Most likely he wants to get you next, seeing as he already finished your father off, and now that he's out of the way, he just wanted to send you a message by attacking your uncle" the agent explained, as he took out a pack of cigarettes
"You don't mind if I smoke in here?"
I smiled politely at the agent
"Only if you let me bum a cigarette off of you" I told him, making the agent grin at me before he gave me a cigarette from his pack
"Not a problem Miss"
"Zoe, please call me Zoe" I corrected him
"Alright"
"What's your name?" I asked the agent
"Where are my manners? My name is Agent Dean Ambrose, pleasure to meet you Zoe"
