Niko
Five Years Ago
“You’ve impressed me, Niko.”
I look up at the man who has become like a father to me. Maxwell
Korslova. For ten years, he has taken me under his wing, molded me, and
helped me rise within the DeLuca family. Korslova is the Consigliere to
Antonio DeLuca. DeLuca is the head of the family and one of the most
powerful men in the Italian American mafia at the moment.
Which means this meeting is one of the most important I’ve ever had.
“I appreciate that, Mr. Korslova.”
“Come now, Niko. I’ve told you when we are alone you call me
Maxwell.”
“I’ll remember,” I respond. The man probably has no idea how much he
means to me. I never had a father, everything I have I’ve fought tooth and
nail for. Yet, the opportunities I’ve had are all because of the man sitting
across from me.
“I’ve arranged a meeting for you, Niko. Tomorrow you and I will be
having dinner with DeLuca to discuss your future in the family.”
I frown. I don’t think Maxwell would have me removed. Still, his loyalty
is owed to DeLuca and probably to his nephew… Dante Russo. Dante is a
soldier in the family, just like I am.
He’s pissed because I keep getting more
responsibility placed on my shoulders. He feels that as Maxwell’s family he
should be the most favored. Dante has shit for brains. I wouldn’t put him in
charge of waxing my car. He has no work ethic and wants everything handed
to him on a silver platter. He’s an entitled little boy who likes to pretend he’s
a man. I wouldn’t put anything past him. He’s a snake in the grass, ready to
strike, and bite you in the ass. He’s not brave enough to face you. I never let
myself forget that when I’m dealing with him.
“Mr. Kor—” I stop when he shakes his head no at me. I clear my throat.
“Maxwell, I appreciate everything you’ve done for me. I’ve tried to show that
through the work I do with the family. No matter what task I’m given I
always try to provide results above what is expected.”
“You don’t think I know that?” he responds, and damn if he doesn’t
sound upset that I would doubt him.
“I—”
“The fact that you were able to get the union president on board with this
latest deal impressed DeLuca so much that he’s considering offering you the
position that was left vacant when Gio died.”
I frown thinking back to the man who I reported to for the last ten years.
Giovanni Russo was what we refer to as a Capo or Caporegime. He was a
good man. His death rocked us all. Hell, being part of the family is
dangerous.
