New York, 1940s
I looked in the mirror and adjusted my tie, then put on my fedora hat.
My twin brother Ahmed was already dressed and waiting for me in the living room.
We both looked identical: dark skin, suits, and a goatee.
"Let's go," I said as I walked out of the room.
We both sat in our office, which was dimly lit with a single bulb hanging from the ceiling.
The room was filled with smoke, and we both had a cigarette in our mouths.
"So, what's our next move?"
Ahmed asked me.
"We have been waiting for a long time to take over this city. We need to make a move."
"I agree," I said as I took a drag from my cigarette.
"We need to take out that mafia boss and his men. Then we can take over his territory."
"Agreed," Ahmed said.
"But we should spare his family. We don't want any innocent people to get hurt."
I nodded my head in agreement.
"As long as they stay out of our way, they will be safe."
My Mafia Twins
"Good," Ahmed said as he put out his cigarette in the ashtray.
"Now let's get to work."
We called all our men into the room and explained our plan to them.
Each man had a specific job to do, and we made sure they understood what they were supposed to do.
We also made sure that no one knew the whole plan, so if someone got caught, they wouldn't be able to reveal too much. "Alright, here's the plan," I said as I looked around the room.
"We are going to take out that mafia boss and his men. We will ambush them at their hideout. Each of you has a specific job to do, so make sure you do it right."
"Yes, sir," everyone replied in unison.
"Good," Ahmed said as he stood up.
"Now let's get to work."
We all left the room and went our separate ways.
Some of us went to gather information about the mafia boss and his men, while others went to prepare for the ambush.
I sat in my office with Ahmed, smoking a cigarette and waiting for everyone to come back with their reports.
After a few hours, everyone returned with their information.
We gathered around the table and looked at the maps and blueprints of the mafia boss's hideout.
"Alright, here's what we have," I said as I pointed to the map.
"The mafia boss has about 20 men guarding his hideout. They are all armed and dangerous. We need to take them out quickly and quietly."
"Agreed," Ahmed said as he looked at the map.
"We should ambush them from behind. That way, they won't see us coming."
My Mafia Twins
I checked my revolver to make sure it was loaded and then put it back in my pocket.
Ahmed and I led our men through the dark streets of New York.
We moved as quietly as possible, sticking to the shadows and keeping a low profile.
Our eyes were fixed on the mafia hideout ahead of us, and we could see that there were guards patrolling the perimeter.
We signaled for our men to spread out and take their positions around the building.
Ahmed whispered some last-minute instructions to the group of men who were tasked with taking out the guards at the back entrance.
We all waited patiently for the signal to move forward.
When it came, we crept towards the hideout, staying close to the walls and using whatever cover we could find.
As we got closer, we could hear the sound of voices coming from inside. We stopped behind a dumpster and waited for a few moments before moving forward again.
The night was silent, but the city was about to hear our footsteps.
My Mafia Twins
I signaled Ahmed, and we moved to take out the guards at the back entrance.
I approached the first guard silently, my revolver at the ready.
As soon as I was close enough, I knocked him out with a quick punch to the head.
I dragged his body into the shadows and hid it behind a stack of crates.
Ahmed took care of the second guard, using his knife to slit his throat.
We checked to make sure that no one had seen us and then motioned for our men to follow us inside.
They entered the building quietly, their guns drawn and their eyes scanning the room for any signs of danger.
I whispered some instructions to them, telling them to secure the area and make sure that no one escaped.
My Mafia Twins
I led our team down the dimly lit hallway, my revolver at the ready.
We passed by several closed doors, listening carefully for any sounds of movement or voices.
Ahmed motioned for us to check one of the rooms, and I nodded in agreement.
I motioned for two of our men to follow him, and then I continued down the hall with the rest of the team.
The carpet was old and worn, and it made barely a sound as we walked along it.
We reached the end of the hall and came to a heavy wooden door that looked like it led to the main office.
I pressed my ear against it, listening carefully for any sounds on the other side.
Hearing nothing, I signaled the team, and we burst through, ready to claim what was ours.
My Mafia Twins
I aimed my revolver at the safe's lock and fired, shattering it open.
The sound of the shot echoed through the room, and we quickly moved to gather up the gold watches and stacks of money that were inside.
Ahmed and I stuffed our bags as fast as we could, and our men followed suit.
By the time we finished, the mafia boss and his twenty men stumbled into the room, reeking of alcohol from the speakeasy down the street.
They were too drunk to even shoot back when we opened fire on them.
Their bodies fell to the floor with a thud, and we quickly dragged them outside.
We doused them with gasoline and set them on fire, watching as they burned to a##s in the night.
I walked through the speakeasy, inspecting the bar and tables.
The bartender was busy mixing drinks, and the patrons were laughing and chatting with each other.
I nodded to Ahmed, and we headed back to the office in the rear of the building.
We locked the safe and counted out our share of the loot.
"Alright, let's get to work," I said, looking at Ahmed.
"We need to assign some of our men to manage these restaurants and b###s. We also need to make sure that we're collecting enough money from each one."
"Agreed," Ahmed replied.
"I'll start by sending some of our men to take care of the restaurants. They can collect the money from each one and bring it back here."
"Sounds good," I said.
"And I'll send some of our men to the b###s. They can make sure that everything is running smoothly and that we're getting our cut."
"Perfect," Ahmed said.
"Now let's get started."
My Mafia Twins
We spent the next few hours assigning our men to their tasks and making sure that everything was running smoothly.
Once we were satisfied with how things were going, we decided to take a break and head over to one of our b###s. We arrived at the b###l and went straight upstairs.
I knocked on Loretta's door, and she answered a moment later.
She was wearing a thin r#e that barely covered her b#y, and she looked like she had just gotten out of bed.
"Hey there," she said with a smile.
"What brings you here?"
"Just wanted to check on you," I replied.
"Make sure that you're doing okay."
"I'm fine," she said.
"But thank you for checking on me. It means a lot."
"Of course," I said.
"If you need anything, just let me know."
"Will do," she said.
"Now if you'll excuse me, I have a client waiting for me."
I nodded and left her room, closing the door behind me.
I walked down the hall and met up with Ahmed in the lobby.
"How is she?" he asked me as soon as he saw me.
"She's good," I replied.
"Just wanted to make sure that everything was okay with her."
"That's good," Ahmed said.
"Now let's go check out this casino."
We headed over to the casino and went inside.
"Boss, you might want to see this," Ahmed said, pointing to a man at the poker table.
I squinted through the dim light and recognized him immediately.
"That's Vincent Moretti," I whispered, feeling a chill run down my spine.
My Mafia Twins
I walked towards Vincent at the poker table, my steps measured and deliberate.
Ahmed followed closely behind me, his eyes scanning the room for any signs of trouble.
As we approached, I could feel the tension building in my chest.
I stopped a few feet away from Vincent and locked eyes with him.
"Vincent, what brings you to our casino?" I asked, my voice steady but edged with tension.
He smirked at me, shuffling his cards slowly.
"Just enjoying the game, Mohamed," he replied, his voice dripping with m##e.
I clenched my fists tightly at my sides, ready to strike if necessary.
My Mafia Twins
I leaned in closer to him, my voice dropping to a whisper.
"We need to talk—privately."
He nodded, setting his cards down on the table.
We walked over to a secluded corner of the casino, Ahmed following closely behind us.
I kept my eyes fixed on Vincent, watching for any sign of weakness or hesitation.
Ahmed stood guard nearby, scanning the room for any signs of trouble.
"So, what do you want to talk about?" he asked me, leaning back in his chair.
"We took over the mafia's territory recently," I began, choosing my words carefully.
"We're looking to expand our operations and make some new connections. But we don't want to step on anyone's toes."
Vincent raised an eyebrow at me, clearly intrigued by what I was saying.
"And what exactly do you propose?" he asked, his voice smooth as silk.
"I think it would be beneficial for both of us if we formed a temporary alliance," I replied, studying his reaction carefully.
My Mafia Twins
"We could work together on some projects and share the profits. And in return, we wouldn't interfere with your business operations."
Vincent considered my proposal for a moment before responding. "I like the sound of that," he said finally, extending his hand to me.
"Let's shake on it and make it official."
I hesitated for a moment before taking his hand and shaking it firmly.
"Alright then," I said, releasing his hand and stepping back from him.
"But remember, this is just a temporary alliance. We'll be keeping an eye on you."
Vincent smiled at me, revealing a hint of mischief in his eyes.
"I wouldn't have it any other way," he said before turning and walking away from me.
Ahmed and I watched him go before turning our attention back to the poker game.
Ahmed leaned in closer to me, his voice low.
"Do you trust him?" he asked, glancing at Vincent's retreating figure.
I shook my head slightly, keeping my eyes on the poker table.
"Not for a second," I replied, "but we need him for now."
My Mafia Twins
Ahmed slid the dossier across the desk in our dimly lit office.
I opened it, scanning the pages filled with information on Vincent's vulnerabilities.
"Where did you get this?" I asked, looking up at him.
"From one of my contacts," he replied, leaning back in his chair.
"It's not much, but it could be useful if we need to negotiate with him."
I nodded thoughtfully, flipping through the pages.
"So, what do you think we should do with this information?"
"I think we should keep it to ourselves for now," Ahmed said, leaning forward in his chair.
"We don't know how Vincent will react if he finds out that we have this information. And we don't want to give him any reason to distrust us."
"But if he crosses us, we have leverage," I replied, closing the dossier with a decisive snap.
Ahmed nodded, eyes narrowing.
"Exactly, and in this game, leverage is everything."
My Mafia Twins
I sat across from Vincent at a dimly lit Italian restaurant, the aroma of garlic and wine filling the air.
Ahmed sat beside me, his eyes scanning the room for any signs of danger.
We ordered our meals and engaged in casual conversation about the city's nightlife, avoiding any business topics.
Vincent responded with guarded politeness, his gaze occasionally drifting to Ahmed.
As we ate, I noticed Vincent's subtle attempts to probe for information about our operations.
I deflected his questions smoothly, maintaining a friendly demeanor.
My Mafia Twins
"So, what do you think of New York City so far?" he asked, leaning back in his chair.
"It's a great place," I replied, taking a sip of my wine.
"There's always something to do, and the people are interesting."
Vincent nodded, his eyes narrowing slightly.
"I've heard that some of the people here can be a little... unsavory," he said, glancing at Ahmed.
I set my glass down, my voice dropping to a low growl.
"Unsavory?"
I repeated, anger rising within me.
"What exactly do you mean by that?"
Vincent leaned forward, his voice taking on a menacing tone.
"I mean that there are some people here who don't belong," he said, his eyes fixed on Ahmed.
"People who are dirty and corrupt. And we need to get rid of them."
My Mafia Twins
I felt a surge of anger at his words, but I kept my expression calm.
"And who exactly do you think needs to go?" "Anyone who isn't w##e," he replied, his voice dripping with hatred.
"This city needs to be cleaned up, and we're the ones who can do it."
I leaned forward in my seat, my voice dropping to a dangerous whisper.
"If Vincent wants to push us out of New York City, he's dead," I said, my eyes locked on Ahmed's.
He nodded in agreement, his face set in a determined expression.
"Agreed, brother," he replied.
I turned back to Vincent, my voice cold and deadly.
"We'll wait for Vincent's first move," I said. "But when it comes, we'll be ready. Gather all of our men and arm them with guns and rifles. We'll show him that we won't be pushed around."
Ahmed nodded again before standing up from his seat and leaving the office.
The next morning, Ahmed and I sat in our office, going over the intel we had gathered on Vincent's deal with Gianni Abate.
"Gianni is planning to betray Vincent once we're out of the picture," Ahmed said, his voice filled with determination.
"But we can't let that happen."
"I agree," I replied, my mind racing with strategies.
"We need to take care of Vincent first. He's the biggest threat right now."
"And what about Gianni?" he asked, his brow furrowed with concern.
"We'll deal with him next," I said, a plan forming in my mind.
"First, we need to get rid of Vincent. Once he's out of the way, we can focus on taking down Gianni."
Ahmed nodded, his expression resolute.
"Alright then," he said.
"Let's get to work."
We spent the next few hours poring over maps and intelligence reports, trying to pinpoint Vincent's location.
My Mafia Twins
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, we found what we were looking for.
"Vincent is hiding out in Queens," Ahmed said, pointing to a location on the map.
"And Gianni is holed up in the Bronx."
I nodded, a sense of satisfaction washing over me.
"Perfect," I said.
"Now we can start making our moves."
Ahmed and I spent the rest of the day gathering our men and preparing them for battle.
We divided them into two groups: one would go after Vincent in Queens, while the other would target Gianni in the Bronx. "Remember," I told them, my voice filled with urgency.
"We need to be quick and precise. We can't afford to let either of these men escape."
Our men nodded, their faces set with determination.
They knew what was at stake here - not just our lives but also our reputation as powerful mafia leaders.
With our plans in place, Ahmed and I set off towards Queens to confront Vincent.
As we drove through the city streets, my mind raced with thoughts of revenge and justice.
I couldn't wait to see the look on Vincent's face when he realized that he had underestimated us all along.
We arrived at Vincent's hideout just as night was falling over the city.
Ahmed and I crept up to the front door, guns drawn and ready for anything that might come our way.
I kicked the door in, leading my men into the building.
We opened fire, shooting Vincent and his men down one by one.
As they fell to the ground, I noticed Vincent's wife and children cowering in the corner.
Ahmed had asked me to spare them, but I ignored his plea.
"Kill them too," I ordered my men.
We grabbed the money and ran out of there as fast as we could, jumping back into our cars and driving towards the Bronx.
When we arrived, we found Gianni and his men lying dead on the ground.
But Ahmed was nowhere to be found.
"Ahmed!"
I shouted, scanning the area frantically.
"Where are you?"
"I'm here," he called out weakly from behind a nearby dumpster.
My Mafia Twins
I rushed over to him and found him lying on the ground, a bullet wound in his abdomen.
"No," I whispered, feeling a wave of panic wash over me. "I've been shot," he said, his voice filled with pain.
"I need to get to a hospital."
Without hesitation, I scooped him up in my arms and carried him to my car.
I sped through the streets, weaving in and out of traffic as I desperately tried to get him to safety.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, we arrived at the hospital.
I rushed inside with Ahmed in my arms, shouting for help as I went.
The doctors came running out to meet us, quickly taking Ahmed from me and rushing him into surgery.
I paced back and forth in the waiting room, feeling helpless as I waited for news about my friend's condition.
After what felt like hours, one of the doctors finally emerged from the operating room with an update.
"He's going to be okay," he said, giving me a reassuring smile. "The bullet missed all of his vital organs. He'll need some time to recover, but he should be back on his feet soon."
Relief washed over me at his words, and I felt a weight lift off of my shoulders.
"Thank God," I said, feeling tears of joy well up in my eyes.
The doctor nodded sympathetically before turning and walking away.
I took out my phone and dialed Munira's number.
She answered on the first ring, her voice filled with concern when she heard mine.
"What's wrong?" she asked immediately.
"It's Ahmed," I replied, trying to keep my voice steady.
"He's been shot."
"Oh no," she gasped. "Is he okay?"
"He's going to be fine," I assured her, but the war was far from over.
My Mafia Twins
I sat beside Ahmed's hospital bed, watching his chest rise and fall steadily as he slept.
The room was quiet except for the beeping of machines monitoring his vital signs.
I leaned forward in my chair, taking his hand in mine.
"Ahmed," I said softly, hoping to rouse him from his slumber.
His eyes flickered open, and he looked up at me with a hint of confusion in his gaze.
"Hey," I said, smiling down at him.
"How are you feeling?"
He tried to speak but winced in pain instead.
"Don't try to talk," I said quickly, squeezing his hand gently.
"Just listen to me."
He nodded slightly, his eyes never leaving mine.
"I'm here to tell you what happened," I continued, my voice steady and calm.
My Mafia Twins
"We killed Vincent and Gianni. Our men did a great job, and we got away with all of their money."
Ahmed's eyes widened slightly at this news, and he tried to sit up but fell back onto the bed with a groan. "Easy," I said, placing a hand on his shoulder.
"You need to rest."
He nodded again, still looking at me intently.
"I know it's not over yet," I said, my voice filled with determination.
"There are still other families out there who might try to take us down. But we're ready for them. We've been preparing for this moment our whole lives."
Ahmed closed his eyes again, seeming to relax a bit more now that he knew everything was under control.
I sat there with him for a while longer, holding his hand and talking softly until he drifted off into a peaceful sleep once more.
When I left the hospital that night, I felt a mix of emotions swirling inside me - sadness for what had happened to Ahmed but also relief that he was going to be okay.
And most importantly, there was a sense of pride knowing that we had accomplished something incredible together.
But deep down inside me too was another feeling growing stronger by the minute: anger towards those who dared challenge us and our power. As I walked out of the hospital doors into the cool evening air, I couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction knowing that justice had been served.
We had protected our family and our territory from those who sought to harm us, and we would continue doing so no matter what challenges lay ahead.
But as much as I wanted to celebrate this victory right now, there were still many things left undone before we could truly relax again.
My Mafia Twins
I sat in our new office in Queens, surrounded by maps and ledgers.
Ahmed stood in front of the 50 new recruits we had hired, briefing them on how our operation worked.
We handed out fedora hats and suits to each man, watching as they transformed into our own.
"Listen up," I said, my voice echoing through the room.
"You will be running all of our speakeasies, b###s, casinos, bars, and restaurants. You will make sure everything runs smoothly and that no one gets out of line."
The men nodded eagerly, their faces filled with determination.
Ahmed stepped forward to demonstrate how to handle any disputes that might arise between customers or employees.
He showed them how to collect payments from business owners who owed us money and how to deal with anyone who tried to cross us. "Remember," Ahmed said, his voice firm but controlled.
"Loyalty is everything in this business. If you betray us, you will suffer the consequences. But if you stay loyal, you will be rewarded beyond your wildest dreams."
The men nodded again, their eyes wide with excitement at the prospect of making so much money.
I watched them closely as they practiced their roles, observing how quickly they picked up on things and how eager they were to prove themselves.
After a few hours of training, Ahmed and I decided it was time to show them around our territory.
My Mafia Twins
We walked through the streets of Queens, pointing out different buildings and businesses that belonged to us.
As we passed a bustling speakeasy, one of the recruits, a wiry young man named Marco, spoke up.
"So, what happens if the cops come sniffing around?" he asked, his voice tinged with both curiosity and concern.
Ahmed chuckled softly, glancing at me before replying, "We've got that covered; let's just say the local precinct captain enjoys our hospitality."
My Mafia Twins
We continued walking, eventually reaching the precinct captain's office.
Ahmed knocked on the door, and a gruff voice called out, "Come in!"
We entered the dimly lit room, where the captain sat behind his desk, smoking a cigar.
I extended my hand, greeting him with a firm handshake.
"Good to see you, Captain," I said, my voice smooth and respectful.
He nodded curtly, gesturing for us to take seats.
Ahmed closed the door behind us, ensuring our conversation remained private.
"So, what can I do for you boys today?" he asked gruffly.
"We're here to discuss our arrangement," Ahmed explained calmly.
"As you know, we've recently expanded our operations into Queens. We want to make sure everything runs smoothly and that we have your full cooperation."
The captain leaned back in his chair, eyeing us with a mixture of curiosity and wariness.
"I'm listening," he said finally.
My Mafia Twins
"We understand that as the new players in town, we need to establish a relationship with the local authorities," I continued, my voice confident and persuasive.
"We're willing to share a portion of our profits with you, ensuring that everyone benefits from this partnership."
The captain raised an eyebrow skeptically but remained silent. "We've heard rumors about your... extracurricular activities," Ahmed added casually.
"We don't mind turning a blind eye as long as you keep things under control."
The captain shifted uncomfortably in his seat, clearly not pleased with our insinuation.
"Alright," he said gruffly after a moment of tense silence.
"I'll cooperate with you. But I want a bigger cut than usual. The higher-ups are breathing down my neck lately."
I exchanged a glance with Ahmed before responding.
"We can offer you an additional 5% of our profits," I said firmly.
"But we can't go any higher than that. We have expenses too."
The captain scowled but eventually nodded reluctantly.
"Fine. But remember, I can always change my mind if I feel like it."
Ahmed stood up first, followed by me.
"We appreciate your cooperation, Captain," Ahmed said politely as we turned towards the door.
"And remember, loyalty goes both ways."
My Mafia Twins
As we exited the office, I casually walked over to the captain's desk, pretending to admire a framed photo on his wall.
In one swift motion, I slid an envelope filled with cash into his drawer.
The captain watched us closely but didn't say a word.
He knew what we were doing, and he knew better than to question it.
Ahmed and I exchanged a nod before stepping out of the office, leaving the captain to his thoughts.
As we walked back into the bustling streets of Queens, I glanced over my shoulder, catching a glimpse of the captain's eyes fixed on the drawer where I had discreetly placed the envelope.
My Mafia Twins
Ahmed and I continued walking, eventually reaching the outskirts of Queens.
We passed by a group of children playing in the street, their laughter filling the air as they chased each other around.
The smell of freshly baked bread wafted from a nearby bakery, enticing our senses with its warm aroma.
As we turned a corner, we found ourselves in a quieter part of town, surrounded by tall buildings and narrow alleyways.
We stopped at a small diner, where the neon sign flickered above the entrance.
Inside, the diner was dimly lit, with only a few patrons scattered around the booths and counter.
We took a seat at a booth in the corner, away from prying eyes.
A waitress approached us, her hair styled in a bob and her lips painted red.
She smiled warmly as she took our order for coffee and sandwiches.
As we waited for our food to arrive, Ahmed leaned back in his seat and sighed heavily.
"We've made significant progress in Queens," he said thoughtfully.
"But it's time to start thinking about expanding into Brooklyn. We can't let our momentum slow down."
My Mafia Twins
I nodded in agreement, taking a sip of my coffee.
"Brooklyn is going to be tough," I said, my voice filled with determination.
"There are already established players there. We'll need to come up with a solid strategy if we want to take control." Ahmed nodded thoughtfully, his eyes narrowing as he considered our options.
"We could try to negotiate with the current bosses," he suggested.
"Offer them a deal they can't refuse. Maybe we can even offer them a chance to join forces with us."
I shook my head firmly.
"I don't think that's going to work," I said confidently.
"These guys are too stubborn. They won't give up their territory without a fight."
Ahmed frowned, clearly not pleased with my assessment.
"What do you suggest then?" he asked gruffly.
I leaned forward in my seat, my voice taking on a more serious tone.
"We need to take matters into our own hands," I said firmly.
"We can start by targeting their speakeasies and gambling dens. We'll make sure they know that we're not messing around."
Ahmed raised an eyebrow skeptically but remained silent as he contemplated my plan. The waitress returned with our food, setting plates of sandwiches and fries in front of us.
We ate quietly for a moment before Ahmed spoke again.
"And what about the cops?" he asked cautiously.
"How are we going to handle them?"
"We'll need to find a captain in Brooklyn who's as cooperative as the one here," I replied, wiping my mouth with a napkin.
Ahmed nodded slowly, considering the implications.
"And if we can't find one?" he pressed, his eyes searching mine for reassurance.
My Mafia Twins
I leaned closer across the table, lowering my voice to a whisper.
"We could bribe or blackmail them," I suggested, glancing around the diner to ensure no one was listening.
Ahmed sipped his coffee thoughtfully, his brow furrowed as he considered my words.
He tapped his fingers on the table for a moment before nodding slowly.
"We'll need to gather information on the Brooklyn bosses first," he said, pulling out a notepad from his pocket.
"Let's start by making a list of their names and locations."
I watched as Ahmed scribbled down notes on the pad, his mind already racing with strategies and plans.
My Mafia Twins
We finished our meal and drove to Brooklyn, parking the car near a rundown apartment building.
The building's brick facade was covered in graffiti, and broken windows lined the upper floors.
We climbed the creaky stairs to the third floor, where our informant lived.
I knocked softly on the door, and after a moment, it opened slightly.
A thin man with a scruffy beard peered out at us before nodding and opening the door wider.
"Come in," he said quietly, gesturing for us to enter.
We stepped inside and found ourselves in a small living room cluttered with books and papers.
The man closed the door behind us and motioned for us to sit at a small kitchen table.
He poured us each a cup of coffee from a steaming pot on the stove.
"So what can I do for you?" he asked, taking a seat across from us.
"We're looking for information on the Brooklyn bosses," I explained, my voice low and serious.
"We need to know everything we can about their operations, their men, and their weaknesses."
My Mafia Twins
The man nodded thoughtfully, running a hand through his unruly hair.
"I've got some notes," he said, getting up from his chair and retrieving a worn notebook from a stack of books. He sat back down and flipped through the pages, stopping at one filled with scribbled notes.
"There are five bosses in total," he began, his voice steady as he read from his notes.
"They each control different parts of Brooklyn. Some are more powerful than others."
He glanced up at us before continuing.
"The first boss is named Tony," he said, pointing to a name written in bold letters on the page.
"He controls most of downtown Brooklyn. He's got a lot of money and influence."
Ahmed nodded as he took notes on his own pad of paper.
"What about his men?" he asked curiously.
The informant shrugged.
"He's got about twenty guys working for him," he replied.
"But they're not all loyal. Some of them are just in it for the money."
I frowned thoughtfully as I listened to his words.
"What about vulnerabilities?" I asked, leaning forward in my seat. The informant smiled slyly as he flipped through more pages of his notebook.
"Well," he said slowly, "Tony has a weakness for women. He spends most of his time at high-end b###s."
He pointed to another name written on the page.
"And then there's Marco," he continued.
"Marco runs the waterfront and has a reputation for being ruthless," the informant said, his voice tinged with caution.
Ahmed leaned forward, intrigued.
"Ruthless how?" he asked, his pen poised above the notepad.
My Mafia Twins
The informant shifted uncomfortably in his seat, glancing around the room before answering.
"Marco has complete control over the docks," he explained, lowering his voice to a whisper.
"He's got men stationed everywhere, watching for any signs of trouble. If anyone tries to cross him, they're dealt with swiftly and severely."
He paused, taking a sip of coffee before continuing.
"I've seen them beat people mercilessly," he said, his eyes filled with fear.
"They don't care who it is. If you're in their way, you're a target."
Ahmed scribbled furiously on his notepad, his brow furrowed in concentration.
"And what about his men?" he asked again.
The informant hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Marco has a lot of guys working for him," he said quietly.
"But they're all loyal. They know that if they betray him, they'll suffer the consequences."
I nodded thoughtfully, processing the information.
My Mafia Twins
"So what about the other bosses?" I asked, leaning forward in my chair.
The informant flipped through the pages of his notebook again.
"There's also Vinnie," he said, pointing to another name on the page.
"He controls most of Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights. He's got a reputation for being ruthless too." Ahmed nodded as he took more notes on his pad of paper.
"And then there's Sal," the informant continued.
"He runs most of Bensonhurst and Gravesend. He's got a lot of connections with other bosses in the city."
I leaned back in my chair, considering the information we had gathered so far.
"So what about Marco?" I asked, my voice filled with curiosity.
"What else can you tell us about him?"
The informant hesitated for a moment before speaking again.
"Well," he said slowly, "Marco is known for being brutal. He doesn't care who he hurts as long as he gets what he wants."
He paused again, glancing around the room nervously before continuing.
"I heard that recently, Marco had one of his men t###d just because he suspected that he was working against him," he said quietly.
"He b#t him until he was barely alive."
Ahmed's eyes widened in shock as he listened to the informant's words.
"That's insane," he said softly.
The informant nodded solemnly.
"Yes," he agreed.
"Marco is dangerous. We need to be careful if we're going to take him down." We finished our conversation with the informant and left his apartment building, heading back towards Queens.
The weight of our mission pressed heavily on us as we drove away, knowing that the path ahead was fraught with peril and uncertainty.
My Mafia Twins
Ahmed and I sat in our Queens office, surrounded by our 50 men.
We had spent hours planning our attack on Vinnie's brothel, and now it was time to put our plan into action.
"Alright, listen up," Ahmed said, his voice firm and commanding.
We're going to split into teams. The first team will surround the building, making sure no one escapes. The second team will go inside and take out Vinnie's men.
He pointed to a map of the b###l that we had obtained from one of our sources.
"The entrance is here, and there are guards stationed at the front and back doors."
He pointed to several locations on the map where we could gain access to the building.
"Once we're inside, we'll need to move quickly," he continued.
"There are multiple rooms on each floor, and we don't know where Vinnie will be. We'll need to search every room until we find him."
The men nodded as they listened to Ahmed's instructions.
"Are there any questions?" he asked, scanning the room for any signs of confusion.
One of our men raised his hand hesitantly.
My Mafia Twins
"What happens if we encounter any civilians?" he asked nervously. Ahmed considered his question for a moment before answering.
"If you come across anyone who isn't a member of Vinnie's crew, let them go," he said firmly.
"We don't want any innocent people getting caught in the crossfire."
The man nodded in understanding as Ahmed continued with his instructions.
"Once we've secured the building, we'll need to gather all of Vinnie's men together," he said.
"We'll interrogate them until we find out where Vinnie is hiding. Once we have him in custody, we can begin expanding our territory."
The men nodded again as they absorbed Ahmed's words.
"Let's get ready," Ahmed said finally, rising from his chair.
"We leave in an hour."
We gathered outside the b###l, our guns drawn and ready for battle.
The night air was cool and crisp as we approached the building, our footsteps echoing off the walls.
I led the first team towards the front entrance while Ahmed took charge of the second team at the back door. We waited for a signal before bursting through the doors, our guns firing as we entered the building.
Vinnie's men were caught off guard, and they fell quickly under our onslaught.
We moved swiftly through the b###l, taking out anyone who stood in our way.
My Mafia Twins
I stormed into the room, my revolver aimed directly at Vinnie, who cowered behind the desk.
His eyes widened in terror as he saw me approaching.
The sound of gunfire and chaos echoed from the other rooms in the brothel.
Ahmed burst through the back entrance, his gun drawn and ready to fire.
We surrounded Vinnie, trapping him with no escape.
"Please," he begged, his voice shaking with fear.
"Don't kill me."
I ignored his pleas, my eyes cold and unyielding.
"You're coming with us," I said firmly, gesturing for him to stand.
He hesitated for a moment before slowly rising from his chair.
I grabbed him by the arm and led him out of the room, Ahmed following closely behind.
We took Vinnie outside, where our men had gathered around the brothel.
"Vinnie, you're under arrest," Ahmed declared, his voice firm and authoritative.
Vinnie trembled as he realized the gravity of his situation.
"I-I didn't do anything," he stammered, his eyes darting between Ahmed and me.
"We have evidence of your crimes," Ahmed said, his voice unwavering.
"You're going to pay for what you've done."
I shot him in the head without hesitation, ending his reign of terror once and for all.
With Vinnie out of the way, we took control of his territory and b###l.
My Mafia Twins
We added 10 more men to our crew, bringing our total number to 60.
Next, Ahmed and I set our sights on Marco at the docks.
We ambushed him during one of his shipments, killing him and taking control of his territory and speakeasy.
We added 5 more men to our crew, bringing our total number to 65. Finally, we targeted Sal in Bensonhurst.
We ambushed him at one of his nightclubs, killing him and taking control of his territory and library.
We added 5 more men to our crew, bringing our total number to 70.
With Sal out of the way, Ahmed and I set our sights on Tony.
My Mafia Twins
We now had 70 men and controlled a significant portion of Brooklyn.
But we still had one more target: Tony, who controlled most of downtown Brooklyn.
We sat in our Queens office, planning our next move.
"We need to take out Tony," Ahmed said, his voice filled with determination.
"But he's got a lot of money and influence. We need to be careful."
"I agree," I said, nodding my head.
"We can't just go in guns blazing. We need a plan."
Ahmed leaned back in his chair, thinking for a moment.
"What if we sabotage his shipments?" he suggested.
"If we can disrupt his business, it will weaken him and make it easier for us to take him down."
I considered Ahmed's idea for a moment before responding.
"It's a good idea," I said finally.
My Mafia Twins
"But how do we ####e his s####s without getting caught?"
Ahmed smiled mischievously.
"Leave that to me," he said confidently.
"I have a plan." Ahmed and I gathered our men in the Queens office once again, this time to discuss our plan to sabotage Tony's shipments.
"Alright, here's what we're going to do," Ahmed began, his voice filled with confidence.
"Tony's shipments come in through the docks every night at midnight. We're going to send a team of ten men to infiltrate the docks and sabotage the cargo."
The men nodded as they listened intently to Ahmed's instructions.
"You'll need to be careful," Ahmed continued.
"There will be guards stationed around the docks, so you'll need to move quickly and quietly. Once you've sabotaged the cargo, get out of there as fast as you can."
The men nodded again, their faces set with determination.
"Are there any questions?" Ahmed asked, scanning the room for any signs of confusion.
One of our men raised his hand hesitantly.
"What exactly do you want us to do?" he asked curiously. Ahmed smiled patiently.
"You'll need to find a way to tamper with the cargo," he explained slowly.
"You can do this by damaging the containers or stealing some of the goods. Just make sure that you don't get caught."
The man nodded in understanding as Ahmed continued with his instructions.
"Once you've finished sabotaging the cargo, make your way back here," he said firmly.
"We'll gather together and discuss our next move."
The men nodded again as Ahmed dismissed them from the meeting.
As the men dispersed, Ahmed and I exchanged a knowing glance, aware that our next move would determine the fate of everything we had built.
My Mafia Twins
I nodded at Ahmed, signaling that it was time to move out.
We left our Queens office and headed towards the Brooklyn docks, traveling under the cover of night.
Our men split into groups, each with their own task to complete.
Some were responsible for damaging the cargo containers, while others were tasked with stealing valuable goods from Tony's shipments.
Ahmed and I watched from a distance as our men carried out their tasks, moving quickly and quietly in the darkness.
As they worked, we kept a watchful eye out for any signs of trouble, ready to intervene if necessary.
Suddenly, a guard patrol approached, their flashlights shining brightly as they searched the area.
Our men quickly hid behind crates and other obstacles, waiting for the guards to pass by before continuing their work.
My Mafia Twins
Ahmed and I stood at the edge of the docks, watching as our men carefully mixed r####n into Tony's drug shipment.
We had planned this meticulously, ensuring that our team worked quickly and efficiently.
As they filled the drugs with p##n, I kept a watchful eye out for any unexpected patrols or signs of trouble.
If anything went wrong, I was ready to signal for our men to retreat immediately.
Ahmed whispered instructions to our men, reminding them to be careful and stay focused on their task.
My Mafia Twins
Finally, after what seemed like hours, our men finished their work and retreated back to the safety of our Queens office.
Ahmed and I followed closely behind, our suits still clinging to us from the humid night air.
As we entered the building, I made my way straight to my office, where I lit a cigar and poured myself a glass of whiskey.
I took a sip, savoring the burn as it slid down my throat.
Then, I settled into my chair, leaning back and exhaling a plume of smoke into the air.
Ahmed went to his own office next door, where he began drinking whiskey while meticulously going through our financial books and reports.
The next morning, I sat in our Queens office, sipping a cup of coffee as the morning news blared on the television.
Ahmed walked in, his face tense as he listened to the reports.
"100,000 New Yorkers have died suddenly after taking poisoned drugs," the news anchor announced.
"The police have arrested Tony, who has been charged with murder and is expected to receive a life sentence."
I smirked, knowing that we were responsible for the deaths.
Ahmed and I exchanged a knowing glance, both of us aware that our plan had been successful.
We had taken out Tony without leaving any evidence behind.
Ahmed checked through our ledgers and accounts, ensuring that everything was in order.
Meanwhile, I called our men, instructing them to lay low and avoid drawing attention from the police.
The city was ours, and no one would ever know.
My Mafia Twins
I sat in our newly acquired office, located in what used to be Tony's territory.
Ahmed and I were going through the list of assets that we had acquired from Tony.
We walked around the restaurants, banks, and casino, inspecting each one and ensuring that everything was in order.
Our men had secured the private police station and b###s, eliminating any potential resistance.
We met with Tony's 30 men, offering them positions within our organization.
They accepted, bringing our total number of men to 100.
We assigned roles to each of them, emphasizing the importance of loyalty and efficiency.
As we finished up at the bars, I instructed our men to keep everything running smoothly and to report any issues directly to Ahmed or me.
I sat in our Queens office, counting stacks of cash with Ahmed.
Our men, dressed in suits and fedora hats, stood before us, reporting on the status of our empire.
They informed us that everything was running smoothly - our bars were thriving, our speakeasies were packed, and our drug routes were expanding.
We met with our police contacts, handing them envelopes filled with cash to ensure their continued loyalty.
As we counted the money, Ahmed and I discussed how to keep our organization tight-knit and profitable.
My Mafia Twins
We knew that as more black men joined our ranks, it was crucial to maintain a sense of unity and shared purpose.
After finishing up at the office, we visited our new territories.
We inspected the restaurants, banks, and brothels that were now under our control.
I handed out bonuses to our loyal crew members, thanking them for their hard work and dedication.
I drive my black Cadillac through the iron gates of my mansion, exhausted from the day's work.
The security guards nod as I pass, their eyes watchful and alert.
As I pull up to the house, I take a deep breath, savoring the sight of the sprawling eight-bedroom estate.
It's a testament to my success, a symbol of how far I've come.
I step inside, my footsteps echoing in the grand foyer.
The walls are adorned with expensive artwork, and the floors are polished to a shine.
I make my way through the house methodically, checking each room to ensure everything is in order.
The kitchen is spotless, the dining room immaculate.
I pause at the door to my gun room, running my hand over the reinforced steel.
Inside, rows of Tommy guns and revolvers line the walls, along with bulletproof vests and ammunition.
My Mafia Twins
I check the locks one last time before moving on. Next, I head down to the basement where our indoor pool glimmers under dim lighting.
The water ripples softly as I walk around its perimeter, checking for any signs of disturbance.
Satisfied that everything is secure, I make my way back upstairs to my study.
As I pass by a window overlooking the street, I notice Ahmed's car pulling into his own mansion down the road.
I pick up the phone and dial his number, waiting for him to answer.
"Ahmed," I say when he picks up.
"Just making sure you're secure for the night."
"Yeah," he replies, his voice tired but content.
"All locked up here. You?"
"Same," I reply.
My Mafia Twins
"Goodnight then."
I strip off my suit and fedora, carefully hanging them in the walk-in closet of my master bedroom.
The whiskey bottle from my study comes with me as I settle into the king-sized bed, the silk sheets cool against my skin.
Pouring three fingers of the amber liquid into a crystal tumbler, I take slow sips while reviewing the day's successes in my mind.
The alcohol warms my chest, my muscles finally relaxing after hours of tension.
As exhaustion takes over, the empty glass slips from my hand onto the plush carpet.
My Mafia Twins
I stretch and roll over, the morning sunlight filtering through the heavy curtains.
My head throbs from last night's whiskey as I reach for the gold watch on my nightstand - 9 AM.
The empty crystal glass lies on the carpet where it fell.
Standing slowly, I walk to the bathroom mirror and examine my face, my goatee disheveled from sleep.
I adjust it with my fingers before splashing water on my face to wake myself up.
My Mafia Twins
Through the window, I spot Ahmed's car still parked in front of his mansion next door.
I park my Cadillac in Ahmed's circular driveway, nodding to his guards as I pass.
The front door is unlocked, and I enter using my spare key.
Walking up the marble staircase, I pause at the top to listen.
Muffled voices come from the master bedroom.
Without knocking, I push open the heavy oak door.
Ahmed sits up in bed, his dark hair mussed from sleep.
Next to him lies a pale, naked woman with blonde hair.
She sprawls across his silk sheets, her body exposed to my gaze.
Ahmed doesn't flinch at my presence, accustomed to our open relationship.
"Morning," he says casually.
"This is Stacy Martin. She works at our downtown brothel."
The woman pulls the sheet up to cover herself, avoiding eye contact.
"She spent the night," Ahmed continues, his voice matter-of-fact.
I leave the bedroom, heading down to the mansion's kitchen.
The sound of running water and voices comes from upstairs as they get dressed.
Sitting at the marble counter, I pour coffee from the pot Ahmed's maid left brewing.
The morning sun streams through the tall windows, casting a warm glow over the room.
I pull out the paperwork from my briefcase, spreading it on the counter.
The documents outline our potential acquisition of a speakeasy in Manhattan - profit projections, security concerns, and potential competition.
Footsteps echo down the stairs as Ahmed enters the kitchen, dressed in his tailored suit.
Stacy trails behind him, wearing last night's dress and clutching her heels.
She gives Ahmed a quick kiss on the cheek before hurrying out the front door.
Ahmed pours himself a cup of coffee and sits next to me.
I glance up from the paperwork, nodding towards the front door.
"So, Stacy Martin," I say, raising an eyebrow.
"Nice."
He shrugs, taking a sip of his coffee.
"She's good company."
"You know I don't care who you sleep with," I reply, looking back at the documents.
"But she's white. You know how I feel about that."
Ahmed sets his cup down, meeting my gaze.
"Race doesn't matter to me," he says seriously.
My Mafia Twins
"I like her."
I sigh, rubbing my temples.
"In 1946, race matters. You know that."
He leans forward, his voice steady.
"I understand your concerns, but we can't let prejudice cloud our judgment. We're better than that."
I pause, considering his words.
He's right - we can't afford to be close-minded in this business.
"Alright," I say finally, nodding.
"I'll try to be more open-minded."
Ahmed pats my shoulder, a small smile on his face.
My Mafia Twins
"That's all I can ask for."
We sit in our downtown office, a stack of rejected business license applications piled on the desk.
The clerk's racist comments from this morning's visit to city hall still echo in my ears.
I pull out a detailed list of corrupt officials compiled by our informants.
"This is our key," I explain to Ahmed, pointing to the names on the page.
"With the right bribes, we can get all the permits we need."
Ahmed studies the list carefully, his eyes widening at the number of officials involved.
"Judge Harrison handles business licensing appeals," I continue, tapping his name on the list.
"We'll need to pay him a visit."
Ahmed nods thoughtfully.
"And what about the clerks? How much will it take to get them on our side?"
My Mafia Twins
I lean back in my chair, considering the question.
"Five thousand should do it. But for Judge Harrison, we'll need something more substantial."
Ahmed raises an eyebrow.
"How much more?"
I hesitate before answering.
"Twenty thousand."
He whistles softly.
"That's a lot of cash. Are you sure it's worth it?"
I meet his gaze steadily.
"Money talks louder than prejudice, Ahmed. We need to make a statement."
He nods slowly, understanding in his eyes.
"Alright. Let's do it." I stand and walk over to our safe, unlocking it with a combination lock.
The smell of old money wafts out as I pull out stacks of cash.
Ahmed watches as I count out twenty thousand dollars in crisp bills.
"That's quite a sight," he says with a smile.
My Mafia Twins
I hand him half of the cash and keep the rest for myself.
"Now let's make some calls," I say, picking up the phone on my desk.
I lean back in my leather office chair, pulling out an envelope of photos from the drawer.
The pictures show Judge Harrison with u###e girls at our b###l.
I slide them across the desk to Ahmed, who looks through them with a mix of disgust and understanding.
"These will work better than bribes," I say, leaning back in my chair.
Ahmed nods in agreement, his eyes scanning the photos.
"Agreed. But how do we get these to him?"
I smile, a plan already forming in my mind.
"We have our man Jimmy tail him tonight after work. He'll slip the photos under his front door with a note demanding our permits by tomorrow."
Ahmed raises an eyebrow.
"And if he refuses?"
I lean forward, meeting his gaze.
"Then we make sure everyone in this city knows about his little secret."
My Mafia Twins
He nods slowly, understanding the gravity of what we're about to do.
"Blackmail isn't usually our style," he says cautiously.
"But I agree. This is necessary."
I pull out a piece of plain paper and begin writing in cursive script.
The words flow easily onto the page - a threatening message that leaves no room for misinterpretation.
My Mafia Twins
I fold the paper neatly and slide it into the envelope with the photos.
Standing up, I walk to the door and call out for Jimmy.
He appears a moment later, his expression curious.
I hand him the envelope.
"Deliver this to Harrison's home tonight," I say, watching as Jimmy nods and pockets the envelope.
Ahmed stands by the window, his arms crossed and his eyes fixed on the city below.
We discuss the potential fallout, planning our next moves if Harrison decides to fight back.
Ahmed turns from the window, his voice calm but firm.
"We need to be ready for anything. If this goes south, we can't afford to be caught off guard."
I nod, understanding the weight of his words.
My Mafia Twins
I watch as Jimmy leaves our office, his footsteps echoing down the hallway.
He'll follow Judge Harrison after work and deliver the envelope to his house.
Ahmed and I linger in the office, keeping an eye on the city below through the window.
We review our contingency plans one last time, making sure we're prepared for any outcome.
I adjust my fedora, feeling the weight of our decision.
Blackmail isn't our usual method, but desperate times call for desperate measures.
As Jimmy disappears down the street, I light a cigarette and take a long drag.
The smoke curls up towards the ceiling as we wait for Jimmy's report.
Ahmed pours us each a glass of whiskey from the bottle on his desk.
My Mafia Twins
We sit in silence, sipping our drinks and waiting for Jimmy to return.
The city skyline stretches out before us, a mix of towering skyscrapers and older buildings.
I can see the lights of the brothel from here, a constant reminder of our empire.
After a while, there's a knock on the door.
Ahmed gets up to answer it, revealing Jimmy standing in the hallway.
"Did he get the envelope?" he asks, his voice low.
Jimmy nods, his expression serious.
"Yeah, I watched him go inside. The envelope is on his front porch."
I feel a surge of satisfaction knowing that Judge Harrison now holds the blackmail material in his hands.
We wait for a while longer, sipping our drinks and discussing our next moves.
Suddenly, there's another knock at the door.
My Mafia Twins
This time, it's Judge Harrison himself standing in the hallway.
His face is pale and sweaty, his eyes darting between Ahmed and me.
"Y-you're Mohamed and Ahmed Abdi," he stammers, his voice shaking slightly. I stand up from my chair, towering over him.
He takes a step back, clearly intimidated by my presence.
"Yes, we are," I say calmly, my voice steady.
"We've been waiting for you."
Harrison looks between us again, his eyes filled with fear.
"What do you want from me?"
I smile coldly, gesturing for him to take a seat in one of the chairs across from my desk.
He hesitates for a moment before sitting down nervously.
"We have a proposal for you," I say, leaning back in my chair.
"We need your help with some permits."
Harrison looks up at me warily, his eyes filled with suspicion.
"What kind of permits?"
I lean forward slightly, meeting his gaze directly.
"We have several businesses that need approval from your court. We're willing to compensate you handsomely if you agree to work with us."
Harrison shifts uncomfortably in his seat, clearly torn between his duty as a judge and the temptation of our offer. "I-I don't know if I can do that," he stammers, his voice barely above a whisper.
I lean back in my chair again, a cold smile spreading across my face.
"I think you'll find that you have no choice," I say calmly.
"You see, we have certain information about you that could ruin your reputation if it were to get out."
Harrison's eyes widen in horror as he realizes what we're talking about.
"The photos," he whispers, his voice trembling with fear.
"Yes," I say simply.
"Yes, the photos," Ahmed interjects smoothly, his voice carrying a hint of menace.
Harrison swallows hard, glancing between us as if searching for a way out.
My Mafia Twins
"What do you want me to do?" he asks, resignation creeping into his tone.
I slide the contract across the desk towards him, watching as he stares down at it with bloodshot eyes.
His hands shake slightly as he reads over the terms, his face growing paler by the second.
Ahmed stands behind him, one hand resting casually on the back of the leather chair.
Our four men stand guard at the exits, their faces hidden beneath their fedoras.
Harrison's eyes flicker up to meet mine, filled with a mixture of fear and resignation.
My Mafia Twins
He knows that he has no choice but to agree to our demands.
I watch as he picks up the pen, his hand trembling slightly as he signs the contract.
He glances at the photos one last time before scribbling his name across the bottom of the page.
Ahmed and I exchange a nod, knowing that we now have a powerful ally in our criminal endeavors.
Harrison stands up from his chair, his shoulders slumped in defeat.
He glances at us once more before turning and walking out of our office, leaving behind the signed contract and a trail of broken dreams.
Once he's gone, Ahmed and I shake hands firmly, a smile spreading across our faces.
"We did it, Mohamed," he says, his voice filled with triumph.
"But we need to be careful," I reply, my tone cautious.
Ahmed nods, the weight of our actions settling in.
"Let's make sure this alliance stays beneficial for both sides."
My Mafia Twins
I sit at my mahogany desk late at night, pouring a third glass of whiskey as Ahmed reviews the maps spread across the table.
The amber liquid burns my throat, warming my insides as I contemplate the risks we took with Judge Harrison.
Ahmed points to the Brooklyn waterfront, his voice filled with determination.
"If we can get our hands on more dock permits, we'll be able to control the entire waterfront."
I trace my finger along the coastline, calculating how many workers we'd need to hire to secure our grip on the docks.
My Mafia Twins
The bottle is almost empty when I reach for it again, but Ahmed's hand stops me.
"Enough whiskey, Mohamed," he says, his voice firm.
"We have work to do."
I lean back in my leather chair, studying the list of dock workers Ahmed compiled.
Most are Irish and Italian immigrants desperate for any work they can find.
They're perfect candidates for our cause.
My Mafia Twins
I circle ten names on the list, men known for keeping their mouths shut and following orders without question.
I hand the list back to Ahmed, who nods in approval at my selections.
He pulls out a stack of papers, each one detailing the schedules of our chosen recruits.
We'll approach them one by one during their night shifts, offering triple their current wages if they agree to work for us exclusively.
I adjust my suit and check my revolver for the fifth time as Ahmed drives us to Pier 17.
The windshield fogs up from the cold, but we can still see the night shift workers unloading cargo under dim lights.
Ahmed points out our first target - Mike O'Malley, a burly Irishman with a bushy beard and a limp in his step.
He's been working the docks for years, struggling to support six kids and a wife who's sick with tuberculosis.
When Mike takes his break, I grab the envelope of cash from the glove compartment.
My Mafia Twins
We exit the car and approach him by the coffee cart, where he stands alone smoking a cigarette.
"Evening, Mike," I say, handing him the envelope discreetly.
He eyes it suspiciously before glancing up at us.
"What’s this about then?" he asks, his voice gruff but curious.
"Standing by the coffee cart at Pier 17, I explain how he'll oversee specific cargo shipments during his night shifts, making sure our goods move smoothly without interference.
Ahmed stands silently beside me, watching Mike's face as understanding dawns.
His weathered hands grip the envelope tighter as I tell him about the weekly payments and protection we'll offer his family.
Mike glances down at his worn boots, then at the warehouse where his supervisor might be watching.
Finally, he nods slowly and tucks the envelope into his pocket.
My Mafia Twins
"Alright, but if anything happens to my family, I'll make sure you both regret it," Mike warns, his eyes narrowing.
Ahmed steps forward, his voice calm and reassuring.
"You have our word, Mike; your family's safety is as important to us as the shipments."
I shake hands with Mike, feeling the rough calluses on his palm.
"We have an agreement then," I say, my voice firm.
Mike nods, and Ahmed and I walk back to our car parked near the entrance.
The cold night air clears my head from the whiskey as we slide into the leather seats.
I start the engine, its purr a familiar comfort.
Ahmed pulls out a map of Brooklyn's waterfront, spreading it across the dashboard.
We circle several locations with a pen - warehouses, docks, and piers where we'll find our next targets.
My Mafia Twins
I drive us to the first marked warehouse, a few blocks away.
We park in the shadows, where the streetlight barely reaches.
Stepping out, we adjust our fedoras and check our revolvers one last time.
The warehouse looms before us, its entrance dimly lit by a single bulb.
Two guards stand smoking cigarettes, their laughter carrying on the wind.
Ahmed nods at me, and we move in silence towards them.
I take the left one; Ahmed takes the right.
I creep up behind mine and knock him out with a swift punch to the neck.
Ahmed dispatches his w#h a quick strike of his knife to the throat.
We drag their bodies into the darkness, hiding them from view.
Ahmed wipes his blade clean and whispers, "We can't keep doing this forever, you know."
I glance at him, surprised by the sudden doubt in his voice.
"We're in too deep now, Ahmed; there's no turning back," I reply, trying to mask my own uncertainty.
My Mafia Twins
I crouch beside the unconscious guard, rifling through his wallet.
I pocket the cash and toss the empty wallet aside.
Ahmed does the same with his guard, his movements quick and efficient.
We stash the wallets in our coats, making sure to leave no trace behind.
As we approach the warehouse door, I glance at Ahmed, noticing his furrowed brow.
He hesitates for a moment, then nods, signaling he's ready to move forward.
I push the door open slowly, peering inside for any signs of more guards.
Ahmed whispers, "What if we find something we weren't meant to see in there?"
I pause, considering his words, then reply, "Then we deal with it like everything else—quietly and efficiently."
Ahmed nods, but his eyes betray a flicker of doubt as he mutters, "Let's just hope this isn't the night everything changes."
My Mafia Twins
I step into the dimly lit warehouse, my footsteps echoing on the concrete floor.
Ahmed follows closely behind, his eyes scanning the space for any signs of danger.
The air is thick with the smell of gunpowder and whiskey.
We find crates stacked haphazardly, filled with guns and bottles of liquor.
I motion to Ahmed to start loading the guns into our bags while I grab the money stashed in a nearby chest.
We work quickly, our movements practiced and efficient.
The sound of clinking glass and metal fills the air as we stuff our pockets with cash and secure the weapons in our bags.
Once we've taken everything of value, we slip out the back door, avoiding any potential guards.
We load our haul into the trunk of the car and drive off into the night, heading towards our businesses scattered across New York City. The city lights blur together as we navigate through the streets, making stops at various b###s, casinos, speakeasies, stores, and banks.
At each location, Ahmed and I distribute the g#s and m##y among our loyal associates.
They nod their thanks as they receive their share, knowing that our operation keeps them employed and well-compensated.
We finally arrive at our office in Queens, a nondescript building tucked away in a quiet alley.
Ahmed and I sit at the large wooden desk, counting the remaining stacks of cash and dividing them between us.
I take a moment to review the reports from each business, pleased to see steady profits across the board.
Our empire is expanding, and with it, our influence.
Ahmed hands me a list of new recruits - police captains, doctors, judges, politicians, and even some famous entertainers.
All of them are now under our control, bound by blackmail or debt.
I go down the list, calling each one to confirm their loyalty and remind them of the consequences if they betray us.
Once finished, I pour us both a glass of whiskey to celebrate another successful night.
Ahmed swirls his glass, watching the amber liquid catch the light.
"You ever wonder if we're just building a house of cards?" he asks, his voice low and contemplative.
My Mafia Twins
I lean back in my chair, considering his words before replying, "As long as we hold the aces, Ahmed, this house stands strong."
I pour two glasses of whiskey, and Ahmed fidgets with his tie, his eyes darting around the room.
"What's on your mind, brother?"
I ask, noticing his nervous energy.
He clears his throat, glancing at me before taking a sip of his drink.
"I have some news," he says, his voice filled with a mix of excitement and apprehension.
"Stacy is pregnant."
I raise an eyebrow, intrigued by this unexpected revelation.
Ahmed reaches into his pocket and pulls out an envelope, handing it to me.
I open it and find an ultrasound photo.
"She's carrying my daughter," he explains, a hint of pride in his voice.
My Mafia Twins
I examine the photo closely, studying the tiny figure inside the womb.
"Congratulations, brother," I say, looking up at him with genuine joy.
Ahmed smiles, relief washing over his face.
"We're going to name her Olivia," he says, his eyes lighting up with anticipation. I set the photo down on the desk and grip Ahmed's shoulder firmly.
"I'll protect her with my life," I promise, my voice filled with conviction.
Ahmed nods, gratitude evident in his expression.
"We'll need to move Stacy out of the brothel right away," he says, a hint of urgency in his tone.
"I'll find her a nice place in Manhattan."
I nod in agreement as Ahmed continues to explain his plans for Stacy and their unborn child.
As I listen, I can't help but feel a sense of concern about the future of a mixed-race child in 1946 New York City.
My Mafia Twins
But I keep these thoughts to myself for now, choosing instead to raise my glass in celebration of Ahmed's news.
"To Olivia," I say, clinking my glass against Ahmed's.
I pull up to Ahmed's mansion in my car, packed with Stacy's belongings.
She had been living in a small apartment in Manhattan, but now she's moving in with Ahmed.
I'm here to help her get settled.
I hop out of the car and open the trunk, pulling out a few boxes.
Ahmed's guards watch us from the gate as we carry everything inside.
Stacy stands by the front door, directing me on where to put all her stuff.
"Put those boxes in our master bedroom," she says, pointing upstairs.
"And be careful with them. They have all my clothes and shoes."
I nod and make my way upstairs, carrying the boxes into their bedroom.
Ahmed is already there, unpacking some of Stacy's personal items.
My Mafia Twins
He looks up at me as I enter and smiles.
"Thanks for helping out," he says, his voice filled with gratitude. "No problem," I reply, setting down the boxes.
"Just let me know what else you need."
Ahmed nods and continues unpacking while I start putting away Stacy's clothes in the closet.
As I work, I can't help but notice how domesticated Ahmed has become since meeting Stacy.
He's always been a bit of a ladies' man, but now he seems genuinely happy with just one woman.
It's almost...sweet.
After finishing with the clothes, I move on to putting away Stacy's jewelry and accessories on her dresser.
She has a lot of nice pieces - pearls, diamonds, rubies.
I wonder if Ahmed bought them for her or if they were gifts from other men before him.
Once I'm done with the dresser, I step back and look around the room.
It's starting to feel like home for Stacy already - her perfume on the nightstand, her books on the shelf by the window. Ahmed comes over to me and pats me on the shoulder.
"Thanks again," he says, his voice sincere.
"I appreciate it."
I nod and smile back at him.
"No problem," I say, feeling a sense of satisfaction knowing that I helped make someone happy today. As I turn to leave, I catch a glimpse of Stacy walking into the room with a big smile on her face.
She looks beautiful in her yellow sundress and matching hat.
Ahmed notices me staring at her and chuckles softly under his breath as he wraps his arms around her waist from behind and kisses her neck gently while she giggles at his touch.
Stacy turns to me, her eyes sparkling with gratitude.
"Thank you for everything," she says warmly.
My Mafia Twins
I nod, feeling a sense of camaraderie as I reply, "Anything for family."
I sit alone in my study that evening, nursing a glass of whiskey as I stare at old photographs scattered on the table.
The image of Ahmed embracing Stacy earlier haunts me, and I can't help but feel a twinge of loneliness.
I flip through the pictures, each one depicting a different woman from my past.
They were all working girls from our brothels, brief affairs that never lasted more than a night.
My fingers trace the outline of Maria, a dancer who caught my eye last month.
She had been working at one of our clubs before she disappeared to Chicago.
I remember how she looked at me with fear rather than love.
The whiskey burns my throat as I swallow it down, trying to drown out these thoughts.
Standing abruptly, I grab my coat and head out into the night, determined to forget these haunting memories in alcohol and easy company.
As I step into the dimly lit bar, the familiar scent of smoke and whiskey greets me.
My Mafia Twins
I spot Maria sitting alone at a corner table, her eyes widening in surprise as she sees me.
"Didn't expect to see you here," she says cautiously, her voice barely audible over the jazz playing in the background.
I slide into the bar seat next to her, signaling the bartender for another round.
She fidgets with her glass nervously as I study her face.
She still looks beautiful, even with the fear in her eyes.
The jazz band plays softly in the background, their notes blending together in a melancholy harmony.
I take a sip of my drink, feeling the burn of the liquor in my chest.
Maria shifts uncomfortably in her seat, avoiding eye contact.
"Are you following me?"
She asks, her voice laced with apprehension.
I shrug nonchalantly, taking another sip of my drink.
"Just enjoying a night out," I say casually.
My Mafia Twins
"I didn't know you were here."
She glances around the room, her eyes darting towards the exit.
"Well, I should probably go," she says, standing up from her seat.
But before she can take a step, I grab her wrist and pull her back down beside me. "Where do you think you're going?"
I ask, my voice low and commanding.
She looks at me with wide eyes, fear evident on her face.
"I...I was just going home," she stammers nervously.
I tighten my grip on her wrist slightly, making sure she knows that she isn't going anywhere anytime soon.
"You're not leaving until we talk," I say firmly.
She looks down at my hand holding onto hers tightly and then back up at me with pleading eyes.
"Please let me go," she begs softly.
But I shake my head and pull her closer to me so that our faces are inches apart.
"You belong here with me," I whisper against her lips before releasing my grip on her wrist and sitting back in my chair. She stares at me for a moment before looking away, trying to hide her tears.
The music continues to play softly in the background as we sit there in silence for several minutes until finally she speaks up again. "Why did you bring me here?"
She asks quietly, still refusing to meet my gaze.
I sigh heavily and run a hand through my hair before answering. "Because I've thought about you every day since you left," I admit honestly. "And I want you back."
She turns to look at me then, surprise written across her face. "You can't be serious," she says incredulously. "What could you possibly want with someone like me?"
I lean in, my voice steady and sincere.
"Because you're the only one who ever saw through the façade," I reply, meeting her gaze with unwavering intensity.
Maria's eyes soften slightly, a flicker of understanding crossing her features.
