Chapter 1
"Miss Nicola, Miss Granelli is here to see you."
"Send her in."
"Yes, miss."
Kagome sat back in her chair. She was twenty-one now, nearly eleven years older after her mother's death. During those painful eleven years, her father had broken down, and Kagome had to run the organization for him. They had found out that the killer who assassinated Kagome's mother was part of a rival Mafia family, the Morettis. God, how she hated them for taking away her mother. Her mother's death had hardened her and made her a cold, ruthless, yet brilliant leader. A knocking in the distance snapped Kagome out of her thoughts. She turned around to smile at Sango, her childhood friend.
"Hey Sango. You got any news?"
"Yeah, we've had a lot success with the new casino. Your scheme really helped us. We cheated people of nearly three billion. And the drugs are going out like honey. Everyone's buying them and it still hasn't leaked out to the press or police."
"Good. Good. What about the prostitution case?"
"Yes. Buchani managed to acquit our client before she spilt the beans."
"Perfect. Did you find any other companies we can strip?"
"One. It's a linen supply store. And it's legitimate so the police won't be able to kick our asses."
"Excellent. Now tell me. Did you find any recent information on the bastards who killed my mother?"
Sango's face darkened. "Hell yeah. Apparently Antonio Moretti, the old ass, he's still alive and running the Moretti Family. But he's near eighty something years old. But he has two sons who are about our ages that are going to take over, together, when Moretti dies."
"What are their names?"
"Inuyasha and Miroku. I have files on them."
"Let me see."
Sango handed over two files to her friend before saying, "Got to go. Bye."
"See you."
Kagome turned over the file on Miroku. His full name was Miroku Moretti and apparently, he was the brother of Inuyasha, the older one to be exact. Coincidental…just like Sango and me. He had a tiny ponytail and was very handsome. A lady's man, Kagome thought. She closed the file and threw it aside. She opened the next one, the one on Inuyasha. Taking one look at his picture, she was mesmerized. He was tall, with long black hair and dark good looks. Kagome cocked her head and read the info on him. His mother had died giving birth to him. According to the file, he had helped the Moretti Family branch out. It went from illegal businesses to controlling big name companies. Just like our Family……
Kagome picked up her phone and pressed a button. It was immediately answered.
"Hello?"
"Sango, do you know when the Moretti brothers are going to go into any public places such as….restaurants or clubs or anything like that?"
"Hold on." There was a faint sound of buttons clicking on a keyboard before Sango finally got on and said, "Yeah. The two are going to make an appearance tonight at Lutece's, the bar restaurant place."
"Good. Hurry back and get dressed Sango. We're going."
"Okay. I'll be there. Bye." And the phone clicked dead.
As Kagome placed her phone down, she didn't realize that somewhere in the distance, a discreet click was heard as a person dialed another number. Kagome's phone had been tapped.
"So, these are the Nicola bitches?" asked Inuyasha. He was eyeing the files apprehensively as Miroku answered, "Yeah," and answered the phone.
Inuyasha took a closer look. The first one, who was older, was named Sango Granelli. She had long black hair and piercing brown eyes. Her godmother was the dead Nicola woman, Renee Nicola. Miroku immediately snatched the file out of his hand. Inuyasha grunted and examined the second one. He stared. The girl was beautiful and had a manner of arrogance and coldness that intrigued him. She had black hair and icy blue eyes. The clicking of a phone startled him as Miroku said, "I just received news that they found out we're going to Lutece's tonight. Take your guns. If something happens, we can get rid of them probably then and there."
"Right."
