RIA'S POV
Avery has been dragging us to every designer store in the area. I think she still has a thing for Remo so she's sucking up to me so I'll put a good word in. Which I will I like her for him.
Enrica's mood seems to lighten though so I don't mind. Dante is apparently also going crazy. Cole texted me a while ago telling me guys are coming to find us. I've been giving him updates on where we are.
"Hey can we get some food? I'm starving." I whine.
"How can you be so hungry you haven't bought anything?" Avery says.
"Not true. I bought this Do MILFS not drugs t-shirt for Fankie."
Enrica smiles and shakes her head. Avery rolls her eyes.
"Cmon let's go find someplace to eat." Enrica says chuckling. She links my arm and we start walking towards the restaurants.
We decide to go back to this cute burger place we saw, and were heading there, when we are cat called by three guys crossing the street. They walk toward us and stand directly in front of us blocking our path.
"What do we have here? You lovely ladies shouldn't be out by yourselves." The douche bag on the right says, as he looks Avery up and down.
They are all Italian. The guy on the left I think is Mauro. I can't tell though because he is hiding his face with his hat and I haven't seen him since I broke his fingers.
"Hey Vero. Where is your man? He should know better than to leave you alone." The guy in the middle, who is assuming is in charge, addresses Enrica.
"He knows exactly where I am. And who says we're alone?" She snarls.
I know we do not have a protection detail because we didn't realize Avery would take us out of my father's territory. Cole has already scolded me about it.
I pull Enrica behind me. "Excuse us." I say with disgust as I look the guys up and down.
"Sexy. Dibs su quella bionda" (dibs on the blonde) the gross guy, who I am assuming is leader addresses his friends.
"La bionda non è disponibile" (The blonde is not available) I respond.
His eyes go wide with shock.
"You guys go get us a table." I say to Enrica. She pauses and just looks at me. "I'm fine, just get a table" She knows that means to call one of the guys.
Enrica links arms with Avery and the three douche holes actually let them go. I subtly exhale the breath I was holding in relief, I don't care what happens to me, I won't let them get hurt. Especially Avery. She's an "outsider." Sergio would kill me if she witnessed anything she wasn't supposed to.
The "leader" is still regarding me with surprise and curiosity,
"Sei italiano? Sono acceso." (Are you itallian? I'm turned on) He looks me up an down.
Si e mi dispiace non poterti aiutare in questo. (Yes and sorry I can't help you with that)
"Fiesty, I like it" he says as he scans my body. I scrunch my face. "I'm Enzo" he says holding his hand out.
So this is Enzo Moretti. I thought he'd be more impressive looking. He is almost as tall as Cole. He has olive skin and brown eyes but average looking. He has a beard and an undercut but the undercut is slicked back and sticking up so he's giving me Jimmy Neutron vibes. The jersey shore rejects on either side of him are doing nothing for his image.
"Victoria" I just look down at his hand like it's diseased. He gets absolutely no respect from me.
He laughs and roughly grabs my chin. "Disrespectful little puttana aren't we?" He turns my head almost like he's inspecting it. "That's ok we have ways of breaking that."
