Life Works in Mysterious Ways
Sophia Ivanov
Loosing my mother at the age of 16, the only person out of my parents who showered me with love, being left behind with the person who hated me. I always thought it was because I was a girl but he never looked at my baby sister Lucy with the look of disgust on his face. He always had the look of adoration and affection in his eye's whenever he looked at my brother's and Lucy.
At he age of 20, my wedding was ambushed by a mafia, my husband killed in between the crossfire and me being rushed to the hospital.Waking up in that hospital I wasn't the same giddy Sophia. I started training, getting better then my brother's. Papa giving me extra attention then my brother's, taking me on mission's with him. Papa never let my brothers go on mission's. That was our father and daughter time. Killing people in cold blood without any remorse.
Years went past and my older brother Alessandro died. A nother person I held dearly to my heart being ripped away from me. That same year Papa stepped down as the Don of the Russian mafia, handing the responsibility over to me. Taking the Russian mafia to the next level, continuing papa's legacy but ten times better. I was worse then papa was and people feared me more then papa.
I was a Ivanov, this was my destiny but as the years went past, mafia's got fearless because papa got old and they thought papa was still the Don. Mafia's who got bold enough, to threaten my family and my mafia. I took care of them one by one but what I never expected was to find out the truth about my family, about everything I thought I knew my whole life.

Chapter: Bickering And ButterfliesSo to say Octavious didn’t say anything….. Yet. He just stood there staring at me with his hands in his dress pants. His stare was so intense I started to feel butterflies in my stomach and started to feel uneasy but in a good way. He didn’t dare to look away even once. I had to avert my eyes away from him or he would have seen the way I was staring at him and I myself didn’t know what I was feeling for this man.“You remembered.” Elijah said, hugging my leg, sounding excited. Clearing my throat I crouched down , holding the puppy out too little one. “Of course, how can I forget you were then so upset when pappa said no and asked that I should talk to him but I never got to it.” I said ruffling his hair still in my crouching position staring at Elijah who had a big smile on his face. It made me happy to see how his eyes sparkled when he looked at the puppy.“Grazie signorina Sofia.” (Thank you Miss Sophia) Elijah said, placing the puppy on the floor , swinging his arm around my ne

Chapter: Small Interaction“Excuse me, what did you just say to me?” The Plastic barbie asked, sounding offended. “Oh I’m sorry I didn’t mean that. I’m Sophia Romano and you.” I said with a smile on my face. “Oh you're related to Lucas.” She said, sounding disgusted in a way if I didn’t hear wrong but relieved at the same time. “His sister actually and you.” I inquired, tilting my head a little to the side. I still had the damn smile on my face and my cheeks started to hurt from all the smiling. Why was I smiling at her in the first place? Smiling kept me from doing something to this woman in front of me, I don’t know why but I wanted to just end her life on the spot for even looking at me as if she had an effect on me as if I should know who she was. I could have walked away ignoring her but I wanted to see what her problem was and having Elijah in my arms prevented me from grabbing her by her hair and pulling her across the lawn. “I’m Patricia…. Andersson.” She said in a matter effective voice almost li

Chapter: Unfamiliar feelingThe airplane Isabela is on should land in about a few minutes. I already sent a text to her to let her know we were parked. So now we are just waiting while I’m trying to get my dear brother on the phone but it seems like he is ignoring me. Elena is waiting for him and he isn’t picking up my calls. Of course he would because he ignored what I told him to do. Letting out a frustrated sight ending the call again for the 5th time. “Still not picking up.” Damien asked, typing away on his phone for the past 20 minutes since we arrived. “Yip.” I said, leaning my head back against the car seat, shutting my eyes. “Why don’t you try calling mister sexy and handsome. Maybe he is with them.” Damien inquired with a smile on his face. “And what tells you I have his number?” I asked tilting my head to face him, lifting my eyebrows. “Of course you do Sophia. I saw the way he looked at you the other night. Looked like he could devour you from the way he was staring at you.” Damien said, lifti

Chapter: Roommate Arriving at the hotel I stayed in, I drove into the underground parking lot turning off the ignition once I parked in the private parking spot. Getting out of the car I noticed that Elena seemed nervous all of a sudden. Looking down into the car Elena was fiddling with her hands again and nibbling on her nails. “You alright Elena.” I asked getting back into the car. “Yes, just thinking.” Elena said,turning her head towards me for a few seconds giving me a forced smile. “About what.” I asked turning my body towards her so that I could face her. “Just about how my life is going to be different once I step out of this car.” Elena said, turning herself to face me but looked back down. “Of course it will be different Elena.You won’t be alone anymore.You will have me and Lucas by your side from now on. And the rest of the Romano family will be there for you. And you won’t be doing the stuff you were doing when you were living with those damn annoying girls.” I explained trying to get h

Chapter: Elena So at the moment I was on my way to the address my brother sent me this morning to help the poor young woman who got pregnant by him. Look I love Lucas but sometimes he is a pain in the ass and she’s going to be stuck with him for the rest of her life and possibly the baby is going to be like him, hopefully not. I wasn't going to let her live and struggle on her own during this pregnancy. I had enough rooms in the penthouse so I let my brother know that I wanted her to live with me. That way she was close to me and I could help with whatever she needed. And also it would be easier to keep her safe and my brother when he comes over to help her. And it isn’t easy the first trimester so I didn't want her to be on her own. I'm coming from the university and my stupid ass brother wasn’t there when I told him that he was to go no matter what even if he had a hangover. I didn't tell him to go drinking like that on a school night. So what I said last night went through one ear and straigh

Chapter: Real youWaking up to my alarm blasting around my room, ringing constantly. Slinging my hand on the night stand I felt around dor the damn thing. Grabbing it from the night stand I threw it across the room, shattering into pieces falling to the ground but the damn ringing didn’t stop. Shooting open my eyes I looked to my left and there stood my fucking cousin, Damien, only a few feet away from me with a damn sly smirk on his face with his phone in his hand. Motherfucker wants to die I see. “Time to get your ass out of bed bitch, you have a busy schedule today.” Damien said, shutting off the alarm on his phone. “When don't I have a busy schedule and what the fuck are you doing here at 7 oclock in the morning?” I inquired scooting up against the bed to lay against the headboard. “Well change of plans. There were a few things added to the schedule so better to start early and then you will be done by 8 o'clock tonight, hopefully. ” Damien explained, sitting down on the edge of my bed cross

Chapter: Chapter 25I don't know why this man had this effect on me but I came back to my senses and may or may not have used my knee to jab him in his private part. Hurt like a bitch. Did I regret it nope ,was I going to do it again yes. Who does he think he is? Not a week ago he had his dick down some brunet's throat and now he wants to get his dick wet using my girl. I will slap the shit out of him if he thinks he can just use me for his own pleasure. I left him there leaning on the kitchen counter , groaning in pain, clutching his dear babies and turned my sexy ass around and walked away. He can go and find whomever that was on her knees for him and use her because every time I lose my senses around him, his babies are going to collide with my knee.What better way to make a man feel pain for wanting to get his dick wet, you know. So he can forget about whatever he is thinking about because he will only end up torturing himself by coming near me. So here I was getting ready to go downstairs and

Chapter: Chapter 24Throwing the blanket off me I shivered from the cold air of the night. Bending over the crib I picked Neveah up because she was crying. She stopped crying when I laid her down on my chest. Taking a nappy from the stand and her wipes I laid her down on the bed. Unzipping her onesie I was met with the most deathful scent any mother knew what it meant. Taking both her little legs into one hand I lifted her gently and of course it was all over her vest and her back and it was yellow. Placing her pacifier in her mouth I went to work. Took out a new pair of pajamas for her and undressed her from the one that was covered in her poop. I had her in my arms so I wiped the rest of the poop that was on her back and surprisingly she laid still. Usually she would move or start crying because of the wipe that is cold. I moved the poopy onesie to the side away from her reach and took one of her towels and laid it on the bed and laid her on top of it.“Oh now you are laughing because mamma has to cle

Chapter: Chapter 23I know it was Aaliyah the other night. The way that door opened and closed in a millisecond. If she only knew she was the reason. Having her so close made it hard not to go to her room or pull her into my office and bend her over on every single piece of furniture. And on top of that we had to find out she was the famous Shadow of Death that has the mafia world in a choke hold. To say it came as a surprise but also at the same time it became obvious to me because of what she did the night I went to rescue her. She didn’t need our help at all she could take care of herself and so when uncle Stefano kind of came clean and told us who The Shadow of Death was after keeping the secret for many years because he was the only one who was allowed to know who it was. How could someone so small cause so much damage. So puts me to shame. She’s worse than I am. She has more blood on her hands than me. Understandable why uncle Stefano wanted to keep her identity a secret because if anyone knew wh

Chapter: Chapter 22It’s been a week since Liam and I started with his training and you could say he made some progress. Not as much as I hoped, but I knew that going at a slow pace, that is comfortable for him, would take some time. Not that I have a problem with how slow it is going, I don't mind because I’m getting to spend time with Elena and my baby. I made a schedule , training only on Monday through Thursday. Only 4 days a week the other three days he gets to do what he wants, rest his muscles and then it is back to training. I made it sufficient so that I would have time for myself and Neveah. In the morning I usually stood up at 5 am to go take a run but know since I have Neveah I can’t stand up so early.So I stand up at 8 am and then go for a jog around the property along with Liam.That is how our day starts , a jog around the property. Usually I would go for three rounds but since Liam is with me I made it one… for now. Putting on a pair of black shorts and an oversized shirt I placed my

Chapter: Chapter 21So last night wasn't so bad. Everything was said and asked. Matteo and Luciano seemed fascinated by what I can do. Dominic on the other hand was a closed book, I couldn’t tell what he was thinking because he just kept staring at me. So they knew everything up until how the old man and I knew each other. At the moment I was getting dressed in my uniform. Black bodysuit with gold on the arms and legs, paired with a black hooded cloak with gold accents. Don’t know why but all the time I got dressed in any of my uniforms I looked like a warrior from the medieval times. My hair cascaded down my back. Putting on my black knee length boots I stood up right , throwing the hood over my head. Walking towards the end of my bed I picked up my katana that was hand crafted to what I wanted with my initials crafted into it in japanese syllables. Strapping it on my hip I walked out of my room making my way downstairs where the old man was waiting. Don’t know why but the old man wanted me to assi

Chapter: Chapter 20As soon as those words left the old man’s mouth I was looked at differently. Amusement, confused, blank and scared all those emotions at once that their eyes showed. Elena was scared of me. I would never hurt her. “Miss Elena, wait!” I yelled after her because she turned her back on me and walked away from me but it looked like she was trying to get away from me as fast as she could, wiping away her tears. She tried to hide her trembling hands from me but I already saw how scared she was. “Dalle tempo, Aaliyah.” (Give her time Aaliyah) The old man said. “No, deve sapere che non le farei mai del male.” (No, she needs to know that I would never hurt her) I said looking at the old man. Leaving the living room I walked towards the direction Elena practically ran out of wanting to get away from me. Surprisingly not one of the brothers said anything yet they just stared at me. Getting into the kitchen Elena wasn’t in here but the sliding door leading to the backyard was left ajar. Taki
