I had looked for Davina after the two brothers deserted me, I am fucking bored, I could be playing games on my phone to keep myself busy but my phone was taken away from me by Wallace. I didn't know what to do so I just lay on the bed thinking of what I shouldn't be thinking. I was thinking of him and also me.
I must have been caught up in between him as whenever I came close to him, I felt hot and chilled at the same time. My heart seemed to beat and all I could think of was what it takes to be closer than I ever was to him.
Today, I came to know more about him, I came to know he was sad, and all I knew was that the girl which he loved before was really lucky. She was still remembered by the two brothers even after she died and I seem to be caught up in their world too because I looked like her. I must say that whatever I did or whichever way, they will continue to see me as her.
I looked up at the wall clock and got up to get ready for the night. I heard a knock and I guessed it was Davina. I moved towards the door and opened it to see two unfamiliar women standing in front of my door.
I looked down at their hands to see hair cases and makeup.
"Ms. Campbell?." One of them called. She was big, with brown hair which flew freely down to her shoulder. They looked like professionals.
"Yes,"
"We work for the Romano family, we were asked to get you ready for tonight's event." She stated. Trust Zavi to do such things, I couldn't help but remember Jezebel who wanted to kill me if she was given the honor, at least these ones were fine and coordinated.
I pushed the door wider for them to come in and I closed it behind me.
"I..uh..make yourself comfortable..I would like to shower right now," I told them, took my towel from the hanger, and disappeared into the bathroom.
I showered, lathering myself in expensive soaps and washes. I thought of what was gonna happen today, meeting more people, people that are dangerous and are in the mafia, I would need to be extra careful tonight.
I came out smelling like lavender, the two ladies had already picked out my dress and shoes from the closet, they were all on my bed.
"Please sit, Ms.." The older woman was saying and I caught her off.
"Please call me Vanora," I told her politely and went to sit. I didn't want to be called my last name.
The timid woman began on my makeup while the busty one worked on my hair.
The finished product was lit, my lips were painted ruby red, my eyes had black winged liner with sparkly silver bordering the black line, and fake lashes made my emerald eyes stand out. Contour lines, my cheekbones, and studded silver earrings made my eyeliner pop.
My hair was curled up in loose ringlets and pulled loosely on my face. I felt good, beautiful.
Next was my dress. There were plenty of exotic dresses in my closet, the red high low party dress which revealed my legs on the front and hides them at the back made it look like I was an ideal guest at the party tonight.
I nodded to the two women, "Thank you." They both nodded silently and got ready to leave, and the door opened. Davina walked in looking very gorgeous in her green pencil evening party dress.
"Where have you been?." I asked immediately.
"Oh, sorry. I've been at work. You look gorgeous, Nora."
I smiled, "You don't look bad either."
She grinned, "I know right? The car's waiting." She told me and we began walking out together.
Reaching outside, my eyes met Alec's. He wore a black tuxedo, looking like the perfect gentleman. My eyes traced the black inked tattoo on his neck just like the one the boss had on him, white earring stood at his ears, and as I looked at him, he was looking at me.
But the boss was nowhere to be found.
"Well, we don't have all day." That's his voice. I whirl around to see him but I ended up hitting my head on his chest. Fuck!, the guy's fucking close to my face, and why didn't I notice before?
I stepped back and looked up at him, "You're always distracted." He said, again.
I frowned. He's usually spoiling the mood. I checked him out and noticed he wasn't dressed like Alec, he was dressed like a pornstar. His chest was open, his three top buttons were open, a gold necklace hugged his neck and I could finally view the beautiful black inked butterfly on his chest. It was beautiful.
Looking at him, you will not only become wet but pee in your pants. He was sexy and...
"You're drooling," He whispered into my ear and left me standing like an idiot. Was I stupidly drooling over him?
I turned and saw that I was the only one standing, the other car was already occupied by Davina and Alec, and Zavi was waiting for me in his own car.
I climbed in and sat beside him, crossing my legs, I looked out of the window so I won't have to look at him again.
"Take," I heard him say immediately the driver drove out of the gate. I looked at him and at his hand and saw that he was handing me a new brand phone.
I took it from him, "All you need is on the phone." He told me as I searched into the phone. I went through the contact and saw his number, he saved it as mi boss and that was the only number on my phone.
"You're all I need?." I asked him.
He shrugged, "Let's say that." I shook my head, this man was starting to irritate me. Calm down, Nora. He's the boss.
In an instant, he grabbed my right hand up and slipped a pinky ring on my little finger.
"What's this?." My voice raised at him.
"It means you belong to me."
Ooh, I already forgot that I was sold to this man.
"We'll be arriving soon, Nora. There are things that you need to know, the people here are very dangerous, concentrate and don't act like a child." I rolled my eyes secretly, hoping to reach our destination already.
"You're my date, so everyone's eyes will be on us. Don't converse with people unless I'm there, don't dance with anyone, and don't get drunk." He finished the last word with a strict look.
"I didn't ask you not to drink but..you know what I mean. Anyway, Davina will be there to guard you."
I was listening like a sixteen-year-old on her prom night, but this wasn't a prom night, this was a fucking mafia party.
If I want to keep living, I should probably listen to Zavi.
