Chapter 1 - 1. Blood, Money and ......Wives?

The Natsuki estate was a bloody mess, bodies were shattered all over, amongst the pile stood two individuals barely holding on.

"You really wanna do this?" One of them asked, his breathing laboured and uneven as he held a gun straight at the other.

"Damn near certain." The other replied, pointing their gun, his right arm broken in two places.

They both stared at each other as the rain poured on, neither backing down.

With a single loud bang, they both fired, the birds in the nearby forest taking off immediately...

1 year ago.....

Chuck Natsuki was known as the most feared man in the nation. His presence alone kept the local gang conflict at bay.

As the head of The Broken Angels, he was one of the most respected individuals. This reputation earned him the nickname...

FIST OF THE WEST!!

 But as everything else in this world, nothing lasts forever.

At the tender age of 49, Chuck Natsuki was found dead in his bedroom, the cause of death is labelled as "Natural Causes." 

Something which never happens in this line of business. 

The funeral was quick and private, only a select few individuals were allowed to attend the ceremony.

Among the guests were Nathan and Drake Natsuki, Chuck's two sons who came to bury their father.

"Huh.. you know father looks so peaceful now, l-like he is basically sleeping you know?"

 Drake stated, his hand holding a bottle of whisky as he looked at his brother.

"As always you never know when to take anything seriously. No matter the occasion."

Nathan states, his gaze locked onto his fathers still body. Drake continues to bother his brother, asking unnecessary questions.

It takes everything in Nathan's willpower not to beat the living shit out of his brother. 

The funeral proceeding continued on despite the initial disturbance. Chuck Natsuki was buried at the family cemetery.

His family and close allies all watched as the legend sunk down into the earth....

It barely took 48 hours for the news to spread throughout the underworld networks. 

Many low and high families began operating more freely in Broken Angel territory.

Amy Natsuki watched this unfold, she knew it would be a matter of time before rival families become more bold and adventurous.

So she called her two sons as well as fellow sister wives to discuss the situation. Amy sat dead centre as her gaze flickered the other.

"Alright mom, what are we actually doing here?" Drake asked, his breath smelling of alcohol.

"Cause ive got a lot to do today and I'm already late." He stated, his tone confident and spoiled.

"Drake, I suggest you show adequate manners in front of our mothers." Nathan told him, barely looking at his direction.

Drake snickered and laughed a little, his tone turning hostile quickly.

 "Well looks like the older brother has finally grown a pair..... where was all that when father was beating the living shit out of..." 

Drake said, his confidence visible, but before he could finish, his mother Amy grabbed his ear with surprising grip and strength.

"Thats enough Drake, don't bother your older brother. It's not the time or the place." 

She told him as she twisted, nails digging into his ear.

Drake yelped in pain as he tried to pull away. "Okay I'm sorry, just let go of me." He stated, he knew raising his voice was not the best tactic.

Amy released her grip on him as patted his head. "Good boy, now sit and keep your mouth shut." 

She told him, a warning directed to the both of them.

Tracy arrived moments later, dawned in a dazzling red dress that barely reached her thighs.

"Finally decided to join us Tracy, i hope you haven't started seeing someone new already?" Amy stated.

Tracy scoffed at the accusation but remained calm. "Just started this meeting already, I have no time for this." 

She stated as she sat next to Amy.

The room now contained each member of the Natsuki family. Amy cleared her throat as she began.

"Im not here to keep any of you for long, so ill just cut straight to the topic at hand."

"With the Don's death now public to the underground network, our rivals, enemies and allies have begun making moves into our territory."

She stated as she sipped on her glass of wine, a few drops landing between her cleavage.

"Ive already spoken to his relatives and they've all agreed....after some convincing that a new head of the family is needed."

She paused, her tone calm as she gazed around the room. 

"And as the head of the household and senior wife, I suggested that Drake would be the new head....and this was agreed upon."

"Huh??!!." The word left from the others before they could stop themselves.

"Well, as expected from the favorite, typical." Tracy stated.

"Mother, I understand why you would consider this as the new head but I'm the oldest."

"Ive lived longer and have proven to be more than capable of leading this family into...." 

Nathan tried to protect but Amy cut her off.

"Its already decided, Drake Natsuki will be the new head of the Broken Angels. Any and all complaints will be met with severe consequences." 

She told them, her word was absolute.

The whole room went silent, Amy continued on. "Now, with that out of the way, I'd like to bring up another issue. "

"As of today both Nathan and Drake are officially married. And must consummate their marriage within the next 3 days."

Both Nathan and Drake turned towards their mother slowly, their eyes widened as a single word escaped from the both of them.

"What?!."
