Prologue
I need somebody who can
love me at my worst.
No, I am not perfect, but
I hope you see my worth.

As the moonlight seeped in through the window, you could make a silhouette of a woman hugging her two newborns, in what appeared to be a small hospital room that reeked of strong disinfectants. As the moonlight illuminated her face you could make out the soft features of her face.
She looked beautiful but at that moment it wouldn’t be her beautiful features that attracts you but her eyes. For her eyes were filled with love directed at her two babies. She gazed at them as if they were her whole world. As if they were her only reason to live on and perhaps that may be true. A mother’s love truly is the most precious thing in the world.
“Mama loves you so much...” the woman cooed at her two babies.
As for her two babies- one boy and girl, they looked at peace, eyes closed deep in slumber unknown of the world, unknown of it’s cruelty, unknown of their future, unknown of their fate, feeling peaceful in the embrace of their mother.
If someone paid more attention to the woman they would find that she was Giana Ricci, the recently divorced wife of the head of Italian Mafia. Now what was she doing in this small cost hospital room alone with her two newborn babies was a real question.
A mother and her two babies, faded into the night. Unknown to others that the new prince and princess of the Italian Mafia had stepped into the land of living.
Tonight the moon shines so brightly.
