My Donna

CHAPTER 12

Danica POV

Tomorrow's the day, Lorenzo and I are going to the mafia ball. I feel nervous. I haven't been into any ball in my life same as a prom, I never went to prom because I never had a partner, especially a mafia ball. I've been pacing back and forth. As I  remembered the dresses Lorenzo bought for me. I took out the gift bag and opened it.

There were three dresses. I tried the black one first, it was an off shoulder dress with black lace down to its elbow. It was pretty. I then tried the red one, it was fit enough to show my body's curves. The dress reached my toes with no slits. I like the colour and how fit it is but it seemed like Lorenzo didn't buy me some party-ish dresses if you know what mean but I had an idea. I could style it myself.

Minutes later. I finished, it looks gorgeous than before. I cut off the long sleeves, made it a little bit shorter and I also made a slit down to the side. Perfect. I then put back the dresses to its boxes and laid in my bed while looking at the ceiling, when someone suddenly knocked on my door.

"Who is it?" I asked as I sat up the bed.

"It's just me, Dario" he responded behind the door. I instantly got up and opened the door.

"Lorenzo's requesting your presence at his office." he says genuinely, while his hands behind him. I nodded and the both of us made our way to his office. Dario knocked and Lorenzo called us in. As we entered the office, I saw Rocco, looking well. That's good. We then sat opposite to Lorenzo.

"I called you all here. To announce that we have a new member in the mafia." he says, looking at me with a smile on his face. Oh, I know this one. You better make a grand introduction for this one.

"Who?" Dario and Rocco asks at the same time. It's really funny sometimes when they talk at the same time.

"Danica Francesco, she'll be your lady from now on." He says arrogantly looking at me. Well, I'm impressed with the introduction. He made it sound awesome. But I remembered what he had just said. Lady!?

"I just entered and you already gave me the lady position?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Sì, being a lady means you'll get to be with me all the time. That way I could protect you from harm at all times." he explains. To keep me safe from harm? I just responded with a smile and nodded, confirming that I agree and Rocco jumped in happiness.(yes)

"So, let's change the topic." Lorenzo says sternly and Rocco sat back down.

"Tomorrow's the mafia ball." he said. While his hands crossed over his chest. Rocco then cleared his throat, wanting my attention.

"So, Dani will you be my-" Rocco was then cut off by Lorenzo.

"And, also Danica's my partner in the ball" Lorenzo says sternly.

"What!?" Rocco exclaimed at Lorenzo. Which Lorenzo didn't like. He gave Rocco death glares and Rocco gave a shocked face and got the hint to shut his fucking mouth up. He sat down and Intertwines his fingers.

"Then, who'll be my partner?" Rocco whined while pouting his face and we just chuckled.

"Actually, you could still join the ball without a partner" Lorenzo smirked, leaning back to his chair and crossing his arms over his chest. While Rocco huffed and looked away. He's always stubborn.
