In this world, everyone has the one thing keeping them on their feet, up alive. She was his one and only source of light, source of sanity. Whatever happened to her, his world would come crashing down. Whoever touched or hurt her, he wouldn't hesita...
Sitting at the mirror, I stared at my reflection before me. My whole family had been getting ready dinner tonight, so it had been a while since I had actually seen any of them. The dress Mrs. Berlusconi got me laid on my bed, the moonlight sparkled up the glittery fabric. Finishing up straightening my hair, I stood up before walking over to my bed. A cool breeze fluttered into the room, the smell of the town melted my senses. The room was dark, except for the beautiful lighting of the moon high up in the sky.
Zipping up the back of the dress, I inhaled deeply as I stared at myself through the mirror. The dress was tight at my chest and waist, hanging loose below my thighs. The dress was a sweetheart shaped, exposing a bit of my chest. Swallowing, I knew my brothers wouldn't approve of the dress. Paring off the dress with some nude heels, I grabbed my handbag before making my way downstairs.

Soft chatter echoed off the walls as I made my way down the hall. Suddenly hearing Diego's voice, I knew all five of my brothers were at the bottom of the stair case.

I clenched my handbag as my heartbeat increased, I knew exactly how this was going to go. When it came to attire with my brothers, let alone my parents, things were very strict. I inhaled deeply, preparing myself as I descended down the staircase. Mateo looked up at me, his shoulders dropped as his eyes slightly widened. Alessandro frowned at Mateo's reaction before averting his attention up to the stairs. All of my brothers immediately looked up at me, my heart skipping a beat.
Dante turned to face the staircase, his expression the least bit happy. I opened my mouth to say something, but Dante beat me to it. " If you think you're leaving the house in that, you're out of your mind," Dante said. " Mrs. Berlusconi got it for me," I informed. " Who the hell cares about what she got you?" Diego scoffed as he folded his arms. I looked at him before looking back at Dante. " Go upstairs and change," Dante ordered, shutting down the conversation. " Dante," I began to plead. " Don't start this with me Evangeline," Dante said. I closed my mouth, " and get a jacket while you're up there," Dante added. I sighed, and was about to turn and walked back up the stairs when Mrs. Berlusconi walked out from around the corner.
A huge smile appeared on her face the moment her eyes landed on me. " Oh, Evangeline!" She exclaimed. All five of my brothers looked at Mrs. Berlusconi as she quickly walked up to me, pulling me into her tight embrace. " You're absolutely gorgeous," Mrs. Berlusconi said stepping back to take another look at me. I averted my attention to Dante, who had his jaw slightly clenched as his eyes on remained on me. " What do you guys think?" Mrs. Berlusconi asked turning to my brothers. " I think she looks great," Luca's voice appeared. My brothers all looked at Luca, who had a snug smirk on his face.
