Chapter 2 II

Domenico

"Do you know a girl named Yelena Gallo?" His father asked as they and by they he meant him and his big brother Marco were sitting in his office.

"know her in person, No but as in heard and saw her then yes I did, " he explained without sparing him a glance as he lit up his cigarette.

"You want to take over the underworld right?" The old man asked and this time he got Dom's attention so he removed his leg from the table and looked at him then asked: "what are you getting at, old man?"

Of course, the nickname earned him a glare from him but that was the least of his problems now.

"She's her daddy's Little girl-" he was about to continue when Dom cut him off and said "yeah I already noticed that today, " and finally Adriano looked up from the papers in his hand and looked at him.

"Why? What happened today?" He asked and Dom's mind drifted to this morning at school.

'At school '

He saw Rina enter the classroom with both Caity and Cynthia on either side of her as he watched her make her way towards Yelena, and yes he knows her, I mean the whole school knows her.

They talked back and forth until a sound of a slap caught his attention as he saw Rina clutching the right side of her face with a horrific look in her eyes as she stared at Yelena who he doesn't think noticed that her scar is not covered with her hair.

Rina ran out of the room with the whores on her tail but now he was only looking at one person, Yelena Gallo, A girl who was known for her beauty but that was before she got the scar of course or at least people thought she became less beautiful but from his point of view a scar is not an ugly thing, on the contrary, it's a sign for people to know that you're a survivor and he was damned because he thought he's the only one who thinks she became more beautiful with this scar on her face that she always covers with her perfect blonde hair and a blue eyes that can cut a hole right through you if she wanted to.

As she was sitting down they made eye contact and If he thought her eyes were beautiful before now he thinks they're fucking inhumanly beautiful, and what surprised him more is that she didn't avoid his gaze but she did when her name was called and she went out of the room.

"Well that was something, " Lorenzo, who was sitting on the desk behind him said as Alessio and Lucio hummed in agreement, he turned around to look at them and found them still looking at the door.

'Present '

After explaining what happened to the old man all Dom saw was a wide smile on his face and that's something that you don't usually see especially with him.

"I'll give you a job if you get it done then the underworld is all yours, " Did I miss hear him, or did he just say that he'll give me the underworld?

"What should I do?" Dom asked suspiciously and he answered "you will date this girl, Yelena Gallo, you'll have to make her fall in love with you, " he started laughing at him but then realized that he's dead serious about what he just said.

"you're serious?" He asked once again as he was glaring at him from across his desk and he nodded his head.

"If you break her then her father will also break because as he always says... she's his miracle, the one and the only person he cares about. If something happens to her, he's done, " his father explained as Dom looked at Marco who was just as surprised as he was.

"Vow in front of Marco that you'll give me the underworld if I do that, " Dom said, and honestly he didn't trust the old man that much but if he vows he wouldn't change his mind because a vow is as good as a bullet in their world.

"I Adriano Accardi vow to give you Domenico Accardi the underworld if you succeed at your job, " Shit, he's dead serious about this that he even vowed.

After settling things down with the old man he went out of the office to be greeted by his Mom who was eavesdropping on us and the look of disapproval on her face can not be missed.

"you won't do it, right?" she asked her so as her voice was shaking and he took a step towards her trying to calm her down but she only stepped away from him.

"Mom, " Dom said but she only shook her head and went to her room. He let out a long sigh and went to his room as well and found the guys there and guess what the room conquered tonight as well, for once in his life he wished to have his room for him.

"What do you guys know about Yelena Gallo?" He asked and they all immediately looked up at him with a surprised look and he asked again "What?"

"you're asking about a girl?" Alessio said in a questioning way and Dom let out a sigh and laid down on the bed putting both his arms behind his head as he asked again "do you know something helpful about her or not?"

"Yelena Gallo, she was born on the 29th of May, daughter of Carlo Gallo and Nora Pattinson, " Lorenzo said without looking away from the book he's reading but suddenly stopped so Don got up and sat on the sofa across him and said "continue, "

"She was known for her amazing beautifulness but that was before the car accident that earned her a long scar on her right cheek and the same exact accident was the reason why her father divorced her mother who took custody of her because she's underaged and people believe she has her because Carlo is letting her not because he can't win the case, " he stopped again but Dom figured that he's just remembering the details so he won't give him false information.

" she has two best friends who are also her childhood friends they're Mia and Helen, they also got bullied by Rina and the bimbos by the way and Yelena used to protect them but now they are the ones protecting her, " Dom nodded his head while Alessio and Lucio were simply listening but a question came up to his mind "why does her father address her as his miracle?"

"The chances for him to have kids was very, very low so when Yelena was born he was doing everything he could to protect her and that is why he calls her a miracle, " Lorenzo explained and Dom nodded his head again.

"Can someone explain what's happening here?" Alessio asked stupidly and Dom said "the old man offered me the underworld if I break Carlo's daughter, " all of them, even Lorenzo, looked at me with a stunned look on their faces.

"and you're going to do it?" Lucio asked and Dom threw him a glare as he said "of course I will, do you think I'll let this chance slip from my hand?"

"But you'll have to help me, " He clarified and they all nodded their heads in agreement.

"How are you going to make her trust you or even talk to you?" Lorenzo asked as someone knocked on the door and Dom motioned for Lucio to open it.

a minute later he came back with an envelope in his hand and he threw it at him but he caught it quickly then opened it to find photos of Yelena in it, before and after the accident.

And he swears that he has never seen someone more beautiful but now he's pretty sure her scar was no accident or at least it wasn't from normal causes and for what it's worth, she's even more beautiful with the scar on her cheek, because of the way she uses her hair to hide it, but that's also a sign that it's going to take a lot to break her.
