Sorry for the long delay, I honestly don't know where the time goes.

I know I said it was dinner with the Cullens, but I didn't make it that far. Bella wanted answers, so we tie up some loose ends in this chapter. I hope you don't mind too much.

Thank you for the reviews. I appreciate each and every one. x

Chapter 5

Edward managed to get me home ten minutes before my dad came in. He walked me to the door and was adorably nervous when he asked if he could pick me up from school the following day. As soon as I told him yes, he gave me a searing kiss that left me breathless on the doorstep as I watched him drive away. I ran upstairs, and by the time my dad opened my bedroom door to check on me, I was lying in bed pretending to be asleep.

I didn't fall to sleep for a long while, my mind whirled with the events of the night. For years I had lived, going through the motions, never really feeling much, I was dull, lifeless, a little disconnected, sure, I enjoyed things, or got upset, but nothing had prepared me for the range and depth of the emotions I had experienced tonight.

Happy, confused, terrified, exhilarated, powerful, concerned, overwhelmed, I'd felt it all, and although I was nervous about going to dinner, if I was honest, I was looking forward to what tomorrow with the Cullen's would bring.

I had agreed to go to dinner with Edwards family, he was obviously not impressed that he had been railroaded into inviting me and I worried that he was only asking me because his family was forcing his hand, but he assured me that he'd like me to come, he just didn't want me to think that it was all too much too soon, he was worried that it might 'scare me off'. I laughed in his face, when he explained this to me, after the night we'd just had, it was comical that he thought dinner with his family would be what pushed me over the edge.

I woke to my alarm in the morning, I hadn't had nearly enough sleep after my late night, and I dragged myself wearily to the shower, this bought me to my newest dilemma, what did one wear to dinner with…, whatever Edward was to me..., parents. I had already met his dad but the circumstances weren't exactly optimal for making an impression. I finally dressed in my normal school get-up, jeans and a hoodie and went downstairs. I munched on a bowl of cereal, as I made sandwiches for lunch.

"Morning Bells." My dad said gruffly from behind me.

"Hey dad. I made you lunch." I smiled handing it over to him.

"Thanks, you're a good girl Bella. You have fun last night?"

"Yeah."

"What time did you get in?"

"Not long after you called." I kept it vague, no need to tell him I stopped off at a quick gun fight in between his call and getting home.

"I'm on a late again tonight, but I think you should be home by ten in the week, at least until school gets out."

I nodded, we'd never really had to have this conversation, I was usually home and if I went anywhere, I was always back well before my dad, so it hadn't come up before.

"And I don't want you neglecting your homework." My dad added.

"I won't dad. I'm going over to Rose's house after school tonight for dinner, but I'll make sure I'm back by ten."

"Who is this Rose, I didn't hear of any new people in town. Does she go to school with you?"

"Oh, um, no. I met her at the library. She's really nice."

"Uh huh." He was interrupted by the sound of a roaring engine. "What the.." he looked out of the kitchen window. He pulled the curtains back and there in my drive was a massive jeep. Rose jumped out of the passenger door and walked up the path to the house.

"That's Rose." I told my dad.

"I thought you said she didn't go to school with you." My dad said as the doorbell went.

"She doesn't."

"So why is she here?" I shrugged I had no clue what Rose was doing at my house.

My dad answered the door and let Rose in. "Hey Bella, you left your backpack in the car last night and I thought you'd need it." She smiled at me. I hadn't noticed that I'd left my backpack behind, but looking around it was obvious it wasn't at home.

"Thanks." I said genuinely. "Dad, this is Rosalie. Rosalie, my dad Charlie."

"Nice to meet you Chief Swan." Rose said politely and my dad smiled, pleased that she had addressed him so formally.

"You want a ride to school?" Rose asked me.

"Sure. Give me two minutes." I put my bowl in the sink and ran upstairs to brush my teeth. I came downstairs to find my dad and Rose chatting amiably and I stood around awkwardly until they noticed me.

"Ready?"

"Yeah, see you tomorrow dad."

"Ten 'o'clock Bells." My dad reminded me. I kissed him and left for school.

After my third attempt at trying to climb into the jeep, Emmett finally stopped laughing long enough to get out and lift me in. "How are you little B?" he asked still chuckling.

I huffed.

Emmett sped through the streets, getting me to school in record time. He pulled into the parking lot and blasted his horn.

"Emmett!" I yelled "This car's ostentatious enough, without you beeping the horn."

"I have no idea what that means, but it's good right?" He grinned at me in his mirror. Rose rolled her eyes at him. "I feel like a proud father dropping his kid to school on her first day." He parked up and turned to me. "Now you have a good day honey. Have you remembered your lunch?" He smiled and I gave him the finger. God help Emmett's future offspring, they really didn't stand a chance. "Is Newton here yet." He looked around the parking lot.

"Why?" I asked suspiciously.

"Don't panic woman, I just wanna have a little chat with him."

"What's going on with you and him anyway?"

"He owes E money and he can't pay it back. But E's prepared to make a deal with him."

"This is about money? How much money can he possibly owe him?"

"Twenty."

"Twenty Dollars! This is over twenty dollars, that's….that's….freaking ridiculous!" I shouted, throwing my hands in the air in frustration. "You tell Edward I'll give him the money myself. You can't go around terrorising people for twenty dollars. Jesus Christ! What is wrong with you people?"

"You are too funny Little B, it's gonna be fucking awesome having you around." Emmett laughed loudly at me and jumped out of the car in the direction of a rather scared looking Mike Newton who had just pulled up.

Rose stopped me from going after him. She was also laughing at me and I was beginning to get annoyed. "What's funny?"

"Nothing, don't worry." She waved me away. "Emmett's not going to do anything to Newt. He really is just going to talk to him. I promise."

"Fine." I sighed and grabbed my backpack. "Thanks for bringing my bag."

"Oh please Bella." She scoffed. "That was just a handy excuse, we were coming anyway."

"Why?"

"You remember I said to expect a heavy Cullen presence for the time being?"

"Yeah."

"Well this is it, don't expect to go very far on your own anytime soon."

"What!"

"Until E gets all this sorted with Alec, you're stuck with us. Just be grateful it's me and Em taking you to school. Alice drives like a fucking maniac."

I didn't even have time to think about what this meant. I know Rose had said that this Aro guy might come after me, but I hadn't really taken her that seriously, I mean, I was a schoolgirl, I didn't have anything to do with whatever Edward was in to. Wasn't all this a bit of an over-reaction.

"So, I'll see you after school." I sighed, I would process this information later.

"Yep, dinner with the Cullen's, I hope you know what you're getting yourself into." I nodded and jumped out of the car, very nearly landing on my ass, it was further to the ground than I anticipated. I walked towards school, more than a few people were staring at the jeep. I sat down next to Angela, who very kindly didn't ask why I had been driven to school in the monstrosity that was Emmett's car. I watched Emmett and Mike across the lot, Mike was nodding furiously, Emmett was talking and finally they shook hands.

Emmett jumped back into his jeep wound down his window, beeped his horn and waved at me, grinning like a fool.

"Bye Little B." He yelled and everyone turned to stare at me, I could feel the blush already. "You behave yourself at school today. Play nice with your friends, share your crayons, try to colour inside the lines, listen to your teachers, oh and no kissing boys." He laughed, beeped his horn again and tore out of the parking lot, leaving me cringing in his wake.

"So…, that was Emmett." I said to Angela when I could finally look her in the eye again.

"Uh huh." She laughed. "He seems….fun?" She asked more than stated.

"Yep."

I made it through morning classes with very little fuss. I noticed Mike seemed to be behind me an awful lot throughout the day and by lunchtime I had the distinct impression he was following me. I grabbed a drink and headed over to sit with Angela. Jess and Lauren were there too, giving me strange looks and whispering to each other. Mike joined our table seconds after I sat down.

When I went to my locker towards the end of lunch, I rounded on him when I caught him lingering a bit further down the hall.

"What's going on Mike?"

"You could have told me Bella." He said looking a bit hurt.

"Told you what?"

"That you're with Cullen. I mean I know we weren't serious or anything, but I did think you were my girlfriend."

Oh…., awkward.

"Yeah…., um, sorry…., I mean…, um, I'm not sure that…,wait, who told you that?"

"Emmett."

"Huh!" I had kinda hoped I was with Edward, but we hadn't really defined it, he said I was his Princess, but did that mean we were together.

"Whatever Bella, I always knew you weren't that into me."

"Oh, ok." I wasn't going to deny it, it was true. "So, why exactly have you been following me around all day?"

He shook his head and he took out a bag from his locker and handed it to me.

"What's this?" I asked confused.

"It's E's money. Em said I should hand over what I had of it to you and E would let me work off the rest of it by keeping an eye on you at school."

"What!" I gasped. "What do you mean keeping an eye on me?"

Mike shrugged. "Something about making sure you were safe and letting them know if I see anyone strange hanging around."

I felt the need to sit down, had Edward really sent Emmett to make a deal with Mike to watch me at school, that was….insane? On top of what Rose had said yesterday and this morning, it was all too much, and suddenly I was nervous. Was Edward actually expecting some mob guy to come after me? Was he that concerned for my safety. Could I really be in that much danger? And to be honest, if I was, did I want Mike to be the one looking after me? He could hardly look after himself, let alone anyone else."

"So he's effectively paying you to stalk me?"

"Um, yeah." Mike had the decency to a least look a little embarrassed.

"I don't understand. You only owe him twenty dollars, just give Edward the money."

"Thousand Bella. I owe him twenty thousand dollars."

I really did sit down then. I slumped to the floor and bent my legs to rest my head against my knees. God! I was so naïve, Emmett laughing his head off at my little tirade in the car suddenly made much more sense.

"What the hell did you get caught up in Mike?" I groaned. I know I wasn't always that nice to him, but I considered him a friend and I hated to see him in trouble.

"I just did a couple of things for him, I had to deliver some shit in Port Angeles."

"What?"

"I don't know. I just handed the packages over and picked up the money."

"It could have been anything!" He really was a moron.

"I know, but I needed the money. I was supposed to keep two grand and give twenty to E, but I bought my car, and I needed some parts for it, so I started borrowing from the rest, I thought if I had a little time I could make the money back, but it didn't work out like that."

"So how much is in the bag?"

"Eighteen."

"So you get two grand to follow me around! For how long?"

"Just until school gets out for summer."

"That's less than two weeks away, that's, like, a thousand dollars a week!" A thousand dollars! That's almost my whole years allowance.

"Yeah I know, he must think you're pretty special."

I was beginning to think it might be Edward who was a bit special, in the head.

"Just be careful Bella, I don't know how much you know about Cullen, but I've heard things about him, and to be honest, he scares me shitless, I would have done what he asked for nothing, just to stay on his good side. Make sure you know what you're doing before you get in too deep." Mike said genuinely, and I almost felt bad for using him all year.

"Thanks Mike." I smiled at him, and he wandered off. I eventually got up off the floor and went to afternoon classes, carrying around eighteen thousand dollars in my backpack.

My life was officially crazy.

I felt a bit un-hinged. When I was with Edward, or Emmett and Rose, things were fine, I felt that I could cope with anything, but sitting in a classroom, with an obscene amount of money, the reality of who Edward was seemed a little daunting. I didn't know if I was ready for all that came along with knowing the Cullen's and however much I liked them, the fact of the matter is that I was the Police Chief's daughter and they were criminals. I couldn't afford to get involved with them.

This time yesterday I had never, to my knowledge, broken a law. Now, just twenty-four hours later, I had to be racking up a pretty impressive tally and that was after just one day, if I continued to hang out with Edward and his family that number was surely going to rise.

As the final bell rang, I knew that the best thing to do, was to go outside, give Edward back his money, and tell him that I couldn't possibly see him or the others anymore.

However, the sight of Edward, leaning against his car waiting for me, wearing black jeans, grey sweater, sunglasses and a smirk, threw that plan straight out the window. I wanted him, badly. The thought of never seeing him again was too painful to even consider.

I couldn't help myself, I smiled like an idiot and I had to force myself not to run to him. Instead I retained a modicum of dignity and walked over, albeit really, really, quickly.

"Hi."

"Hi yourself." He pulled me into his arms. "Good day at school Princess?"

"Informative, I had an interesting conversation with Mike."

"Oh?"

"Don't you 'oh' me Edward Cullen, you know exactly what we talked about. You can't make deals like that, that's just stupid."

"You asked me to stop beating him up yesterday!" he laughed.

"Yeah, so?"

"So it's one or the other Princess, you decide." He shrugged.

"That's not fair." I whined. "How about you take what he gave you and forget about the rest?" I asked not that hopeful that he'd agree.

"Yeah, that's not gonna happen."

"Why not? I don't want him following me around all day."

"Tough. If he thinks I've let him get away with fucking me over, people will think I've gone soft. They'll start taking liberties. I might have stopped threatening Newt because you asked me to, but that doesn't mean I'm going to let people fuck with me." His voice had taken on a hard edge and I knew E was making an appearance. But he sighed and seemed to rein it in.

"Are we done talking, because I really want to kiss you."

"Oh." I blushed. I wasn't nearly done talking. I needed to ask him about this Aro, and about Rose and Em taking me to school and his deal with Mike. I needed to know if I really was in serious danger, and what he thought might happen. I had so many questions and needed so many answers from him. But I also really, really, wanted him to kiss me. It was a conundrum. Luckily Edward solved it for me.

He smiled and leant down, brushing his lips softly against mine and pulling me closer to him. It was at that point I became aware of the audience that had gathered.

"Everyone's staring." I whispered against his lips.

He looked up briefly and noticed all my fellow students gaping at me. "So they are." He agreed, before crashing his lips back to mine and kissing me passionately. My hands flew to his hair and I let him kiss me until I needed air and had to pull away. "There, now all these fuckers know you're mine."

"Wow, possessive much?" Is it wrong that I liked that?

"Incredibly." He said unapologetically. "You ready to go?" He asked as he opened the door for me.

We pulled up to Edward's house, or mansion, should I say and my nerves kicked in. I know I'd already met everybody except Edward's mom, but it was still a big deal.

As soon as Edward opened my car door, Emmett was rushing down the steps to meet us.

"Baby Bell, I missed you, it's been dull as fuck round here all day." He swept me up into a hug. "Come on, come and meet Marcy. She's been waiting for you to arrive." Emmett lead me into the house. "Marcy." He bellowed as we entered the lobby.

A beautiful woman came from around the corner, smiling graciously. She had Edward's green eyes and hair colour.

"This is Bella." Emmett told her as I felt Edward come and stand behind me. "Bella, this is Marcy. E's mommy."

"It's nice to meet you Mrs Cullen." I said politely.

"It's lovely to meet you too Bella, Emmett's told me a lot about you." She surprised me by coming over and hugging me tightly "And please, call me Esme." I turned towards Edward confused.

Edward rolled his eyes "Em came to live with us when he was little, but he didn't feel right calling her mom, so he called her Mama C, which then became Ma C, which morphed into Marcy. It's Emmett, what can I say." He explained.

"We're not eating for a while, so you kids go and have fun. Edward why don't you give Bella a tour of the house. I'll call you when dinner's ready." She ushered us into the living room and disappeared.

Edward showed me around the house, it was massive, all tastefully decorated, courtesy of his mom he informed me. Emmett and Rose had their own room in the basement and Alice and Jasper shared a room on the second floor, it surprised me that his parents were so liberal. When we finally made it to his room, he held the door and let me go in first.

"So, this is my room."

"It's nice." I told him taking a look around.

"I've never had a girl in here before." He admitted, and I was secretly pleased. It was obvious Edward was far more experienced than me, but it was good to know he didn't parade a steady stream of girls through his door.

His room took up the whole of the third floor. He had hundreds of books, CD's and DVD's lining the walls, a flatscreen TV hanging above a fireplace and a black leather sofa sat in front of what looked like a pretty fancy stereo system. He had his own bathroom and a walk in closet, it was like his own mini apartment up here, but the main focal point in the room was his bed, his freaking massive bed! My eyes kept getting drawn back to it, no matter where I tried to look.

"What are you thinking Princess?" Edward asked after a few minutes of watching me in silence. He came towards me and wrapped his arms around me. I couldn't tell him I was thinking about his bed, or more specifically, him and me in his bed. A thought that both thrilled and terrified me in equal measures, so I settled on telling him the other thing that was bothering me.

"I don't know. Just…, do you really think it's necessary for Rose and Em to take me to school, and then to have Mike follow me around while I'm there. I mean, what do you think is going to happen to me?" I needed to know just how serious this situation I'd found myself in was.

He ran a hand through his hair and sighed. "Aro Volturi is one nasty motherfucker, he's been after me for a while, ever since he realised I wasn't going to get with T. I know what he's capable of, and I'm not gonna take any chances with you Princess."

He led me over to his bed and set me down on it. "Rose told you about my family yeah?" he asked and I nodded. I sat and watched as he paced, clearly struggling with how much he wanted to say to me, so I gave him time. He stopped pacing suddenly and seemed to make a decision. His posture stiffened and his back straightened, his eye's hardening. And when he spoke his voice was low.

"Aro has always wanted in with the Cullens, he thought that if I was with T then we would form some kind of alliance. Once it was obvious that that was never going to happen, he's seemed intent on destroying our family. We run the West Coast but Aro has some pretty impressive people in his pocket and he's becoming more and more powerful, and more and more dangerous all the time. Alec is on top of it, but we have to tread carefully." He paused, gauging my reaction to what he was saying. I tried to look impassive, but I don't know if it worked. This was a whole new world to me.

"There are rules in this life. Rules that are supposed to be honoured. We did fuck J up, big time, he stole from us, and he knew the consequences, we had every right to kill him, but we didn't. Alec called it a goodwill gesture." He snorted angrily. I knew it was E talking to me, but instead of being scared, I was in awe of him. He was so powerful, so angry, and still so utterly beautiful.

"What Aro did last night, sending his men to ambush us, that was uncalled for and unacceptable. Now Alec has no choice but to retaliate, I wouldn't be surprised if Marcus gets involved. It could lead to an all out war between our families. That will be nasty and messy and bloody, but we'll be ready and we'll take those fuckers down. The chances are Aro already knows about you, and if this plays out like we think it will, him coming after you is a very real possibility. If he finds out you're my girlfriend, it makes it a certainty. He'll come after all of us, so we have to be on our guard. This shit could get ugly."

I sat on his bed still taking in all that information and trying to get my head round it. I'd wanted answers and boy had I got them. I can't deny it was frightening. Finding out some nutty mob boss was likely to come looking for you should have me quivering in fear and crying hysterically, but I clearly had mental health problems because the only thing I could really concentrate on was the fact Edward had called me his girlfriend.

I must have looked a bit shell shocked because Edward's face softened and he knelt in front of me, taking my hands in his.

"To answer your original question, yes it is necessary, it's absolutely fucking vital, that you let Em and Rose drive you to school. I'd do it myself but I don't think your father would be impressed. As for Mike, that puny little fuckwit wouldn't stand a chance against one of Aro's guys, but he can contact me if he notices anything off. It serves a double purpose. He can pay off his debt, and we have eyes on you at school. You're the easiest target, the rest of us are trained and well protected at all times. We can protect you when you're with us, and you should be relatively safe at home, especially with your dad being Chief. Jazz will set up surveillance anyway, just in case, but going to and from school and while you're there are the times that you'll be most vulnerable."

He got up and sat down next to me on the bed, throwing his arm around my shoulder. "I honestly don't think he'll try anything at school, it's too public, but it doesn't hurt to be cautious. You need to keep your wits about you and let me know immediately if you notice anything that worries you."

I snuggled into his side. I knew once I got home, I was going to have to revisit what he'd said and when I was alone thinking it all over it was going to be that much more scary.

But here, with him, I felt safe.

"I won't let him get near you Princess. I'll kill him before he ever lays a finger on you." He vowed and I knew he meant it. "I'm sorry that you got caught up in all this." He said sincerely. "Do you hate me yet?"

"Never." I shook my head and he kissed my temple. I turned my head, and he captured my lips, it was a softer kiss than I had experienced before. More tender. It was slow, leisurely, but no less passionate.

"So, I'm your girlfriend?" I asked breathlessly as we parted. There were a thousand questions I should have asked him about all he had just said, but for some reason my mind decided that one seemed the most pressing.

"Uh, yeah?" He said uncertainly, like the seventeen boy he really was. "I mean, if you want. You know you're my Princess."

"So you're my Prince?" I teased him.

"Fuck no! I'm the King."

"Doesn't that make me the Queen." I asked playfully.

"No." He kissed me on the nose sweetly. "You're the Princess."

"If you say so." I shrugged.

"I do, and I'm the fucking King, so what I say goes." He laughed and I rolled my eyes at him, amused. It amazed me how he could go from being cold, hard, dangerous E to funny, kind, affectionate Edward in seconds.

Sometimes, in between the drama that was Edward's life, it felt like we were both just normal teenagers, having fun and getting to know each other. I got up off his bed and wandered over to his books. I ran my hand over the titles, he had classics, gritty crime novels, comics, text books, all shelved in no logical order that I could work out. I laughed, because it summed him up perfectly, he was so many different people mixed into one Edward sized package.

I was aware of Edward watching me curiously from the bed, but I took my time. I went through his CD's and films, trying to get a clearer picture of who he was and what he liked, but they were just as eclectic and disorganised as the books. I wasn't sure if I'd ever figure him out.

I turned around and met his eye's, he was simply looking at me, but the atmosphere in the room changed and I was caught in his gaze. I recognised the look in his eyes, I'd seen it last night at Tanya's club. I couldn't look away. I didn't know what Edward expected from our relationship. I didn't really even know what I expected from our relationship. It was all still so new. But the tension in the room was almost palpable. We merely stared at each other, each of us waiting for the other to make a move.

The moment was broken by Emmett shouting "Dinner is in five minutes people! I repeat, five minutes till dinner, you've had fair warning!"

Edward sighed and rubbed his hands over his face. "What's the matter?" I asked worried he was having second thoughts about inviting me over.

"Nothing, Emmett's timing just really fucking sucks."

"Why?" I asked shakily as he stood up.

"I've been sitting here for ten minutes thinking about how much I like having you in my room Princess." His voice was husky, deeper than normal, as he walked towards me. "And I was about thirty seconds away from throwing you down on my bed and giving the words 'having you in my room' a very different meaning."

Oh! Well, I guess that clears up what he's expecting from our relationship.

I think I squeaked. Was I ready for that? I wasn't sure. He couldn't be serious anyway, could he?

My mind still hadn't caught up, and he didn't give me time to react to what he said, his mouth was already on mine, kissing me hard. One hand on the back of my head, the other at my hip holding me to him. He sucked on my bottom lip and bit down on it, causing me to gasp, allowing him to swirl his tongue into my mouth. My body reacted to him instantly, even if my mind didn't and I threw my arms around him and kissed him back. He picked me up and I wrapped my legs around him, it turned out he was deadly serious, because he turned and walked us to his bed, where we both fell onto the mattress, without breaking our kiss.

He situated himself in between my legs, and we both moaned when he moved. I know my actions were spurring him on and he continued to grind himself against me while I fisted my hands in his hair. He was all consuming and I found myself moving my hips along with his, tightening my legs around him, and throwing my head back while he kissed down my neck, sucking and nipping at my throat.

"Dinner! E, Jazz, Cat, Little B, stop getting it on and get on down here. Don't make me come get you. I'm fucking starving and in no mood to wait for you fuckers. Ow! Shit Marcy, what was that for?"

I froze and Edward groaned before pulling away. "Princess." He gasped. "You have no idea how tempted I am to stay here and fuck you in my bed. Believe me, I want to, but my mom will go ape shit if we miss dinner." He kissed me quickly, jumped up and ran into his bathroom, leaving me panting on the bed, shocked, turned on and unsure whether to be relieved or disappointed.

A/N - So, I hope this was ok.

Shocked? Relieved? Disappointed? Let me know what you think.

Dinner really is next, foul-mouthed hilarity will ensue, it's almost finished so I should have it up by next week. x

I feel the need to explain this story a bit. I'm worried that maybe people are expecting it to be something it's not. It will all be written from Bella's point of view, so there won't be loads and loads of intricate details of any mob stuff, only what she sees or is involved in. It's not going to be a factually accurate story about the Mafia, I don't know enough about any of it to write something like that. This is just a bit of fun, because I wanted to write a hot mob Edward. Of course, his lifestyle will continue to affect them, and it will certainly affect Bella's relationship with Jake and Charlie. I don't know, I'm probably waffling. All I can say is the chapters will continue in a similar fashion, some romance, some humour and some drama.

I'd obviously love for you to keep reading, but I don't want to mislead anyone into thinking this is a proper Mafia story. It's not, it's a Bella and Edward story.

The other thing is, Bella and Edward are gonna go fast, this is a whirlwind romance, I'm not saying they're going to jump into bed with each other next chapter, they're not, but they're not hanging around either. Ok, I know I'm waffling now, so I'll stop.

I hope I haven't put anyone off reading this with all that shit, but I do feel better now that I've explained, and I'll know you're reading without any false expectations.

If you want good Mafia drama try Emancipation Proclamation. It's exceptional.

There will be Blood, and the sequel, There will be Freedom, are two of my favourite stories on fanfiction and The Heart of the Mafia is another great story.

Sorry for the long ass note. I would still love it if you reviewed. x
