ALASKA'S POINT OF VIEW

It's been a week since the killing incident and I was finally not grounded, I decided to explore the city and call my best friend since I got my devices back. The same best friend who is probably going to ignore me for a while because I haven't called her in a month now, classic Lucinda Lakewood.

"sorry wrong number" Lucinda said the moment I called her and hung up. "what an asshole" I thought. I tried her number a few more times before she picked up again.

"my my if it isn't Alaska" she said sarcastically.

"the one and only" I replied wanting to piss her off.

"I will beat you beyond recognition the next time I see you, idiot, you're calling as if you haven't been ignoring me for the past one month" she yelled and I had to distance the phone from my ear to avoid premature deafness.

"I have a good reason for it and some mouthwatering secrets" I said and told her everything that had happened from the fashion show to the moving to Sicily and the grounding shit.

"no way" she said in disbelief

"yes way girl" I replied.

"and also I killed a guy who was trying to kill me in their dungeon" I told her.

"you did what" she screamed.

"and I don't feel guilty about it" I said.

"woah girl, this is really mouthwatering" she said still in surprise.

"I know, you probably need some time to digest it and also you can't tell anybody about the mafia, don't even whisper about it to your cat, bye" I said and she cut the call after saying an absentminded bye.

I heard a knock a few minutes after the phone call while I was checking my social media, "come in, it's open" I said.

"hi" Lorenzo said.

"hi" I replied

"mom sent me here to tell you about the ball" he said.

"what ball" I asked.

"every year a ball is organized to allow mafia's come together to make alliances and during the ball even mafias at war are expected to cease fire" he said.

"oh okay am I supposed to come" I asked'

"yes it is mandatory for every family to come" he said.

"okay when's the ball" I asked casually.

"tonight" he said.

"tonight" I said sitting up in shock.

"yeah mom also said that you shouldn't worry that she has it all under control" he said and left my room. Minutes later I heard a knock on the door before Noreen French my stylist, and her team who were dragging a mannequin covered with a black cloth barged in.

"bon après- midi" she said.

"yeah après-midi" I replied trying to remember what it means.

"have you taken a bath" she asked.

"yeah" I replied unsure why she needed that information.

"great" she said smiling and started giving orders to her team, they lay out some jewelry and make up getting ready to doll me up and I was used to it already because I'm a model and I got dolled up every time.

**********

"perfection" she exclaimed when they finished. The outfit was stunning it was a gold dress that had diamonds on it so that it would shimmer and it was backless with a form fitting front and it had a small fur coat attached to the shoulders and a thigh high slit.

"it's lovely Noreen thanks" I said before wearing the matching heels and bag. When I got down stairs in the newly installed elevator mum and I got dad to make because we couldn't climb up and down five stories everyday everyone's reaction was priceless.

"you look stunning" Adrik complimented me.

"thanks you don't look bad either" I said and we all headed to the limo outside. The ball was at a 5-star hotel called La Elaganza and it was very beautiful.

"Alaska though everyone here seems harmless they are deadly and none of them are here for fun so don't piss anyone off" dad told me just before we entered the ballroom. "okay" I replied.

After everyone took turns in showing me to their allies and actual friends I decided to go eat something. If you're wondering about my relationship between the boys it had changed completely over the last week. They all bonded with me in their own ways even Tristan and Crestan though now I them call trissy and cressy. They got very angry when I used it the first time and they chased me around the house until they caught me and threw me into the pool. I was feeling pressed so I left the ball room to go find the bathroom when I felt someone shove me into a corner and I started thrashing about telling him to let me go.

"let me go you pervert" I yelled at my attacker. He reeked of alcohol and he was an old, bulky and bald man with rotten teeth.

"o come on baby girl lets have some fun" he slurred and tried to kiss me and I immediately avoided him.

"little bitch" he yelled when I kicked him where the sun doesn't shine and jumped off me to massage his hopefully broken manhood. I tried to run away but he held my cloth and pulled me back and slapped me very hard. He tried to undo his belt when he was suddenly ripped off me by a guy but I couldn't see clearly because of the slap.

"hey are you alright" a cold voice that had a caring undertone to it said.

"yeah" I replied after gathering myself and he helped me stand up.

"thank you for saving me" I said after straightening out my dress.

"your welcome" he said and I saw the pervert knocked out on the floor behind him.

"I'm Alaska" I introduced myself.

"Kairo" he said and walked away and I still felt pressed so I left to find the bathroom. After using the bathroom, I went back into the hall I went straight to where they were all seated asked them if we could go home and they agreed saying that they were already bored here and when we got home I told them about the assault and about the guy who saved me they got pissed and started asking me questions about Kairo and I told them that I had no idea who he was and they bought it. Damian and I went to our rooms together and he left me alone and all I could think about was the hot, cute and cold guy who saved me.
