I finished patting on my loose powder for the finishing touches of my make up for the ball, I had a Smokey eye with black gems on it to match my black poofy dress with sparkles and gems on it
I stood up and fixed my brown curls so they could stay for a decent amount of time
I started walking down the staircase making sure I don't tip over wearing my black sparkly heels, I clenched on to my black hand purse and railing, my brothers both waited at the bottom as they escorted me to the car.
The whole car ride was silent due to the fact my father was in there, I didn't wanna tear up especially because I just finished my makeup
We made it to the ball and I stepped out the car adjusting myself to look presentable, I walked up to the door with Cole and Dylan on each side of me with my father and mother in front of us
"Name and Mafia?" The guy at the door said "Iris Lopez, Ravens" I responded before he let me in
When I walked in all eyes were on me and before I knew it my brothers were behind me and Dylan told me to fix my posture and look as cold as possible
It's been about 2 hours into the ball and there's only 1 more hour till the Phoenix mafia arrives to take me away
..
It was time. I see my father come up to me and grab me by my arm to warn me that they are about to come through the doors
The whole room went quiet when a chime went off 3 times, before I knew it the doors opened and I saw him. Gabriel Alvarez Morino was walking up to me and my father. "Hello I'm Jefferson this is my daughter" my father was quick to say I looked up to him with a cold stare "Im Iris." I introduced myself
"I know." Gabriel said before he came up to me and grabbed me from my fathers grip. "We'll be leaving now" he announced to everyone and turned around walking towards the door dragging me along , I looked back and watched my brothers as they looked down at the floor too ashamed to watch me get taken away. I also watched my sister Ivory tearing up as she did a hand signal only me and her would know.
He dragged me outside and right before the door shut I heard everyone chattering again. Damn they don't care I thought to myself because in the mafia world no one ever cares. I got snapped out my thoughts when I heard Gabriel tell me to get inside the limo
I stepped inside and he followed behind including another young man, his brother Rowan I believe. "The car ride will be about an hour long so I'd say get comfortable now" I heard a deep raspy voice come from across the limo I looked up to see it was Rowan who said that, Gabriel shot him a nasty glare for some apparent reason causing Rowan to tense up
The rest of the ride was dead silent you could hear the car moving since it was so late at night no one was in the streets anyways. I looked out the window and admired the stars before I fell asleep for the remainder of the ride
I woke myself up when I felt the car swerve too hard causing Gabriel and Rowan to both also get disturbed, we pulled up to the drive way and Rowan left the limo immediately waisting no time. Gabriel got out and fixed his suit waiting for me to get out "Show her to her room" he instructed to a servant before walking away
I looked around forgetting I don't have my bags "Excuse me where are my bags?" I questioned a servant she looked at me and shrugged I felt slightly offended but I brushed it off
I walked into the house admiring how beautiful it is, there are marble floors a marble staircase perfect warm lighting and a gigantic kitchen. I followed a servant who directed me to come with her upstairs, we wondered for what felt like hours but we finally made it to my room
I walked into my room smiling at the servant then started admiring the room it was huge but medium size and it has its own bathroom and a closet perfect for me. I went to sit on the bed and it was the softest bed ever I laid down and got right back up so I could go ask for clothes
Before I could even leave the room Gabriel came to me and gave me a shirt,boxers and shorts for me to wear "Here" he said waiting for me to grab the clothes. All I could focus on was how attractive he is
He has a sharp jawline, a defined adams apple, jet black hair and hazel eyes he was very attractive. I never got to see his brother in good lighting so I'm not sure how Rowan looks, so far the only thing I know is that they are both very tall and muscular
I grabbed the clothes from him and shut the door quickly and hoped into the shower , when I got out I was very tired so I changed into his clothes and laid down in bed letting myself process the fact I'm going to be here for a really long time
