"Zavi, can you explain to me why all of the clothes you ever bought for me are always revealing?."
I was tearing apart my wardrobe, making a poor attempt of finding a decent dress to wear for our date. It's my birthday date not a slut party.
He wrapped his arm around my waist and muttered, "I like you sexy but if you don't like any of your dresses, we can stop by a boutique on our way."
I nod my head, "Better."
I took out the black lace which covered my boobs only and my ass, this will do till we shop for more clothes, and turned to him.
"I can't wait to see you try that out." He mumbled and gave me room to dress up.

I came out, totally dressed like I was going to a party. I wore my black short heels and allowed my hair to flow by the sides. I didn't want to pack that up, I wanted it free for me. I had a black mascara mask on my eyes and pink lipstick on my lips.
I entered the sitting room and all eyes went on me.
Zavi smiled as he walked toward me.
"Can we not stop by the boutique anymore?." He asked, raising an eyebrow.
I chuckled and looked down at myself. I, myself didn't know how beautiful this dress fitted on my body.
"Alright, but I'm gonna buy more decent clothes," I told him.
"Anything for you, my love." He took my hand and kissed it. He wasn't bad either, he had his suit fitted on his towering body, and an inner black shirt masked his ink tattoos. His hair was bombed neatly back and black stud earrings stood at his ears. He was gorgeous, this made me think back to when I met him months ago. I had thought that coming into his life was the most dangerous thing ever, I thought to kill him because he hurt my feelings a lot, hell he was an ass then. Zavi changed knowing me and taking me as I am. I also think he loved me that way more than anything.
"Are you two gonna stare at each other all day?." Alec's voice brought me back to this world.
I roll my eyes at him, "I wish to see your girlfriend later, I will know if you treat her as badly as you treat me."
He grinned, "She can't wait to meet you too."
"Which car are you taking, Nora?." Irene asked as Will's hand covered her shoulder. I still can't believe she chose Will over Alec.
"I'm taking Berry. It matches my dress today."
She smiled, "Let me drive Frosty then."
I searched my purse for the car key and threw it at her, "I swear to god, if you scratch frosty, I'm going to kill you." I warned.
She smiled and waved as Zavi took me away from them.

Alec's pov.
When they left, I turned to the couple.
"Where're you going?." I asked Will.
"We're going to the beach," Irene answers twirling around.
"Can I come along?."
She turned quickly, "Not a chance."
"I'm coming with Becca whether you like it or not."
"I thought it's once. I can't believe you were dating Becca." Will stated.
I licked my lips, "I can't believe that myself."
I'm a whore, I don't date, I fuck. The only person I've loved in my life is Anita, and then Nora came and took over from her.
I got into Nora's car as Irene went to the driver's seat.
"Where are you picking her?." She asked, looking at me from the front mirror.
I checked my wrist watch and texted Becca.
I waited for her to text back as I put on the seat belt.
My phone beeped and I looked at it.
"She's at San Marco."
"Okay, we'll meet her there before going to Lido Venice."
.
.
Irene is a terrible driver, I've never seen such a bad driver in my life. She either drove above the speed limit or below, at no point did she ever go the speed limit. I regretted ever letting her drive, if she scratches Nora's frosty, I'm gonna deny entering this car today.
Finally, we arrived after an hour, my neck aches as I ran my hand over it. I pulled out my phone and texted Becca that we'd arrived in San Marco.
"Do we take the Vaporetto?." Irene suddenly asked looking out of the window.
"That'd be great. It's just 20 mins drive to Lido." I answered, looking at William.
"Do you ever talk?."
"Who? me?." Irene asked.
"No, I mean your boyfriend," I answered and William turned to look at me.
"Shut up!." He growled.
I smirked and looked out of the window, then I saw her coming. Her bleach blonde hair was tied in a bun, she wore a long white sleeveless gown, a black bag was in her right hand and her phone was in another, and her black sunglasses covered her eyes.
"She's such a hottie," I stated out loud. Irene peered out of the window, "She's gorgeous."
I shake my head, "I know right?."
I opened the car and went out to receive her.
She smiled when she saw me and came closer. She hugged me and mumbled, "Hi, baby."
"You look gorgeous," I told her as William and Irene stepped out of the car.
"This is William and Irene," I introduced them, Irene hugged her, "Nice to meet you, Becca."
"My pleasure." She said looking around.
"Where's Nora?." She asked.
"She didn't come along," I answered as we all began walking towards the water bus.
I handed the driver $120 as we all got in.
"I thought you'll bring her along." She pouted.
I smiled, "Why do you want to see her?."
She licked her lips, "I've heard so much about her, the Italian mafia queen who everyone talked about. I want to know how she did it, how she looked, and what makes her special."
"I thought you were not interested in the mafia business."
Becca owned a fashion company, she went out of the mafia business to become a fashionista. But we want her now, we heard Don Lucien visited the Gambino family, and that's why I'm with her.
"I'm not. But hearing so much about this lady, I wanted to see her. I heard she's Matteo's step-sister."
I shook my head, "You already know more than you should know."
She grinned.
"Fine, I told her about you and she asked to see you too. Her birthday's today, and we're planning a small party for her, I don't know if you have your day planned out."
"I can make out time for it today."
I turned around to look at Will and Irene, they kinda look good together.
***
Zavi's pov.
Ahh!.
"Nora, you've gone through all the clothes here. They look good on you." I said, checking my wristwatch. We spent two hours checking out decent clothes as she called it, she was having fun making me wait.
"It's like noon. I have all day before the concert."
She yawned. "Do you wanna eat? I'm damn hungry."
I stood up immediately.
"Let's go eat."
I took her hand and exited the boutique section. The hall was cloudy and my men carried the numerous bags of clothes, I wonder when she's gonna wear them all.
"Zavi…"
A voice squealed behind me.
I turned around to see Alice.
She had a big smile as she approached us.
She hugged me, I almost sneezed at her strong smell of perfume.
"How have you been?." She asked me.
"Hi, Alice." I greeted.
I didn't know she would ever talk to me after I threatened her.
Her eyes turned to Nora.
She took out her hand, "Hello, Nora. It's nice to meet you again."
Nora looked at her hand skeptically, she took her hand smiling, "Nice to meet you again, Ms Alice."
"I'm sorry about the other day, but I know better now."
Oh, stop the fake pretense, I heard my dad visited her family, I don't know what they should have talked about. But I know it's not a good one, he might be trying on how to dethrone me.
My father doesn't know that the army I've had over the years can defeat himself and the Gambino family.
"I'll have to leave now, take care." She looked at me and left with her men.
Nora sighed, "So cocky, I'll run her over with frosty one day."
I chuckled and held her hand, "Let that not bother you. It's your birthday, isn't it?."
