Wednesday, January 19th, 8:30 pm, London, England.
We arrived late, by choice of course. No sooner had we entered the room than a man with a strange moustache accompanied by a woman with an ostentatious appearance accosted us.
- Miss Luciano, I am Oswald Mosley and this is my fiancée Diana.
- Nice to meet you. This is Giuliana, a friend of the family, Finn Shelby and I have it on good authority that you already know Thomas Shelby. I answered politely.
- indeed. Do you have any luggage to send up to your rooms? Oswald asked.
- We weren't planning on staying here overnight, thank you. Thomas answered for me, which made me angry.
- I'm afraid you have no choice, with the storm forecast for tonight, it would be suicide to take the road, especially for a long trip. And I know you're from Birmingham. Don't worry; all four of you will have two of our nicest rooms. replied Oswald.
Well, that's the last straw! Already that I find myself here with Thomas, I will have to spend the night with him? No way! I'll sleep with Giuliana.
- Well then. I say.
Oswald and his wife excused themselves and went to someone else.
- He's invasive, but he seems quite harmless to me. You've been worried about nothing. I said to Thomas.
- Well, you're quite wrong, my dear Valentina. He replied with the most condescending air I have ever seen.
- It doesn't matter. I say while raising my eyes to the sky.
I go straight to the bar and order a whisky.A glance in the direction of Giuliana and Finn made me realize immediately that sleeping with her will be impossible.
- Do you dance? asked a man I don't know from Eve or Adam.
- Yes, but not with you. Thomas replied, taking my hand and pulling me to the center of the room without my being able to say a single syllable.
- What was that? I asked irritated, but trying to put on a brave face.
- You give your trust way too easily. He replied, obviously dodging the question.
- I don't trust anyone but my father. And why should I trust you more than anyone else in this room? I asked.
Of course, I greatly appreciate dancing and I must admit that I have known worse dancers, but this dance has a tendency to irritate me.
- I don't know, you tell me. He says while plunging his glance in mine.
