Italian Mafia Last Names Novels & Stories

The way she said my name nearly unraveled me. The sound of my phone ringing suddenly interrupted us. I closed my eyes briefly in irritation. Aria laughed softly against my mouth before standing to use the bathroom. “This better be important,” I said coldly. “One of our men traced the tattoo,” he said immediately. “It belonged to an old Italian mafia faction,” he continued. “That’s why you recognized it.” A pause. “Who ran it?” My jaw tightened. “The Old Don’s brother, Luigi.” “That’s impossible, he’s dead.” A cold feeling settled in my chest

the other greets. “I'm officer Stevo and he's officer Henry” the taller one introduces, showing us his ID card. “We’re here to ask a few questions about the incident that happened last night at the club. I assume you’ve all heard the news. And hope we're in the house of Vincenzo Lorenzo, Nico Lorenzo, Riccardo Lorenzo and Elena Lorenzo??” I look up in shock wondering why the police officer was addressing us as “Lorenzo” instead of “Romano” as that's the real surname..and then I remember it's mostly people in the Mafia world that knows us as the “Romanos”

He smiled and held me tighter, saying, “I wouldn’t want anyone to represent me but you.” “There are several mafia organizations in Italy. You know ours, which is the Sicilian Mafia, otherwise known as the Cosa Nostra. There is the Calabria, the Camorra, and the Sacra Corona.” “These are all organizations that control huge territories all over the country, but there are others that are smaller with smaller territories, but they don’t really count in this equation. There’s a man called the Godfather of Italy. All these organizations have their leaders, and their leaders are governed by the Godfather.”

Damian's last name was Moretti. Lorenzo Moretti's Moretti.

I also decided to name her Nicola later, in honour of the real Nicola De Luca, my dear friend who died at the hand of Carina. Leonardo decided to have a fling with Bella Fontana and Don Fabio Fontana found out about it, so he just proposed a marriage between them. They ended up getting married for real. Franco befriended Don Diego's daughter, Sienna Martin. They had a clear relationship and two years ago, they got married. So now every Mafia Don was related to each other and the underworld just turned into one big family. Strange how things just getting better after the whole Rossi family was wiped out from the picture.

But, Luca kept them as far away from that side of our family ties as possible. Now we had new rivals the Russo’s who are in Italy they are a big name over there, but not as big as ours Gianni and Luca made an alliance almost twenty years ago and it is still going strong to this day. My brothers are the now known mafia kings of our world and those god damn fucking Russo’s would do anything to sabotage us and our reputation in Italy. They want it of us, not a fucking chance they are just wanna be' s. Luca has gave me strict instructions to do a deal with them and if they do not accept our terms, then we are to shoot them dead.

The consuming look he gave, the threat of a knife, and the man seated in front of me instilled fear, yet I resisted. I noticed how his fist tightened, his icy gaze still focused on me. The rings on his right-hand fingers caught me again. With his fist resting on his thigh, I could read the letters written on each ring in each finger. L. A. Z. Z. A. Lazza The similar name on the knife. A name ringing bells in me. Lazza, a famous name of the Italian Mafia leader. The Don. No, the last time I checked, he wasn't this young. But news has been everywhere that Lazza II died five years ago, and another leader took over. If I paid more attention to the mafia shit, I might have known who that was.

I took a sip of champagne. "You have another name?" Henry asked "Isn't your name Xavier Arcana?" "Half is wrong." I took a bite from a brownie "My real name is Xavier Arivonese. There's no 'Arcana' in my name." "Aren't you Italian?" "Yes. The Italian part is 'Arivonese.' I'm not related to the Gionovese but our names come from the men the mafias follow after." "Oh.......you mean the two men who started the first mafia in Italy?"

"Wait, what did you say his name was?" "Luciano. Why?" Maria's face went pale. "Aurora, please tell me you didn't sleep with Luciano Romano." "How do you know his last name?" "Because everyone in this city knows that name." Maria grabbed Aurora's hands. "Aurora, Luciano Romano runs the most powerful crime family on the east coast. He's not just dangerous, he's lethal. People who cross him disappear." Aurora felt the blood drain from her face. "That's impossible."

His family also happens to be one of the four leading families of the Costa. You see, the entirety of the Italian mafia was made up of four powerful families: Rossi, DeLuca, Montavero, and Vasillios. With my family sitting at the top. Each family controlled its own territory and no one except me, that is, dared to conduct business on another’s land. It was an unspoken truce that had lasted decades. It was also no secret that my family controlled more than half of Italy and the other families envied our influence.
