"The road to Cosa Nostra's throne is not easy, Aria. You have to prove yourself ten times more than a man should have. The members of Cosa Nostra want your brother to take over after me, not you."Aria tensed hearing her father's words. She knew why the members of Cosa Nostra wanted Leonus and not her to be crowned as their next Capo. Because she was a woman and according to them a woman was not strong enough to handle the business of Cosa Nostra. They overlooked all her achievements as an active member of the organisation. What mattered to them was nothing but her gender. And Aria wanted to change this stereotype. She was not going to stand behind her brother just because she was a woman. She was born to rule not bartered off in marriage to other Mafia families to create strong bonds.Aaron Salvatore Knight watched his daughter's tense features and he understood what she was thinking. He sighed and knocked on his desk twice to bring her back from her thoughts. "Aleksandr Fedorov,"

“Are you angry again?" Aria gritted her jaws and sighed hearing Leonus' voice. "Leave me alone, Leo." She muttered before pulling out her anger on the punching bag. She wanted to pull out her anger on the man who was getting on her nerves these days. The Russian Pakhan but He was out of her reach. Hence she imagined the dummy as Aleksandr and continued her assault on it. He was the unbelievably annoying man she ever met. Punch. Punch. Kick.Leonus rolled his eyes and walked near to her. She was about to punch on the punching bag again but he blocked it, catching her fist. "Stop it!" He snapped at her.Aria glared at him. "Leonus!" She snapped back, snatching her fist out of his hold.Leonus gave her a dirty glare before jerking her forward and grabbing her shoulders. "Stop punishing yourself like this, Aria!" Aria growled angrily. "I don't need your advice," she barked, moving back. Leonus wiped his hair back in irritation. He knew his sister’s way of letting her frustration and a

"I don't know why I am going through this torture. I hate kids." Leonus chuckled. "Well! Too bad. you have to produce one or two of them to keep the lineage going," he commented to his sister who was trying to smile for the pictures. One of their counterparts from the business world threw a birthday party for his son. They had to come for the sake of appearance. They both have set unspoken rules for each other. He will stand behind her in Cosa Nostra while Aria would stand beside him in the business world. And not to mention their mother gets happy when she sees Aria like this. So she attends events like this for her happiness although she doesn't say it. But today she was regretting it. The place was filled with children and Leonas was telling her that she had to bore children one day. Aria raised her eyes and glanced at her brother. "We had this talk yesterday. It's your duty to produce children, not mine.""Capo's child becomes Capo, Aria. You are going to be the Capo, it's your

Dinara cried and waited for him to say something. Anything. But the man remained silent and kept staring at her. Every passing second was raising her anxiety. "Please say something. I don't know how to handle all of this."Leonus blinked and took a long breath to control his anger. Although the girl was a virgin but not naive. He could see it now. Yesterday, he saw her with someone else and today she was telling him that she is pregnant. Did she take him as an idiot?"Go and find someone else to fool," he casually said and turned to walk away but Dinara didn't allow him to leave. She was stunned at his answer. Find someone else to fool? What kind of reaction was it? She grabbed his forearm and forced him to look at her. "I am not fooling you. I am pregnant and the child is yours." She cried anxiously.Leonus clenched his jaws tightly as he couldn't control his anger and snapped at her. "Shut up!" Dinara startled and jerked away from him, a small cry left her mouth. "What do you tak

Aria wanted to roll her eyes at the overacting Lucas was doing in front of her mother and aunt. The look on her cousin's face told her that she couldn't believe what she was seeing. Aria needed to talk about it to Lucas. She was not one of his girlfriends. They were going to be husband and wife. He needed to act a little more maturely with her. But for now, she turned to her mother and smiled. "We have been dating each other for a few months and he proposed to me yesterday, Mom.""What?" Bella asked, stunned. "Why didn't you tell me before?" She asked as tears pooled in her eyes. Happy tears! Finally her daughter was getting into a normal girly mode. Aria glanced at her mother. She couldn't describe how happy her mother looked in that moment. She looked as if she was about to land in a fairy world."I wanted to be sure of my feelings first. But when he proposed last night I couldn't say no. I am engaged to him, Mom."The three people standing in front of her reacted all differently
