My Donna

CHAPTER 13

Danica POV

The boys and I are pretty much busy preparing for the mafia ball. Remembering this is my first being in a ball full of mafia, I'm shaking in nervousness. But the important thing I should do there is always be with Lorenzo, since he is the Mafia Don. No one will dare to hurt me when I'm with him. Damn right I am.

Anyways. We we're in a hurry because we wasted a lot of time on Rocco. He wouldn't stop whining about him having no partner to go with. As Lorenzo said, Dario prepared some men to disguise themselves and Rocco to be always on guard when we get there.

After changing, finally it looked so perfect without a sleeve, a little bit short and with it's slit. No one knows that I re-styled the dress, so it would be a surprise. I was about to leave my room when I remembered about the bracelet Lorenzo gave me.

I walked up to my closet and opened it, then saw the box I had put in there last night before I slept. I took it and opened the box. Seeing the bracelet for the second time. It's still beautiful. I wore it and it matches the colour of my dress perfectly, then I made my way to the living room downstairs but I met someone. Someone I hadn't seen for a long time.

"You look gorgeous as always" Lorence says sweetly, tilting his head to the side.

"Aren't you going to the mafia ball?" I questioned and he just chuckled.

"I can't, I may be the mafia Don's twin but I have to be kept away from being seen in public, remember." he says genuinely and I felt sad to hear that. He is the brother of the most powerful mafia and he could have anything he wants except people don't even know he exists.

"Anyway, congratulations being the lady." he says in a cheerful tone and I giggled.

"Thanks" I said, giving a warm smile as he nodded. Lorence really is not the same as his brother. He's the cheerful one.

"I think you should go. The guys must be waiting for you now." he said and with that he took my hand and gave it a little kiss. That was... Unexpected?

So we said our goodbyes and I continued to walk. I was in the stairs making my way down and the boys were there waiting for me. I could see there eyes widened and Rocco's jaws dropped. I walked elegantly in the staircase not wanting to trip and fall down. That would be embarrassing and that's not how I want my grand entrance to be.

I then walked up to the three of them and they still didn't change their expressions, still shock seeing me. I think I've made it too party-ish. Yeah, I regret the dress now.

"I, uh, uhm, you look stunning" Rocco says while stuttering and I can't help but giggle and he smiled. I looked at Dario.

"I didn't think lorenzo would buy you such a short dress" Dario says in a disappointing tone, as he narrowed his eyebrows at me. He doesn't like me wearing anything too showy. Like a dad. If Dario had children I know he'd be a perfect strict but best father.

"I don't remember buying you that kind of dress" Lorenzo says in a questionable tone, putting his hand in his pockets and I think I have some explanation to do. So I told him how I didn't like the style and I decided to change it.

"Smart" he simply said and I smirked. I liked it when he praised me. The three of them were in tux of course. Rocco wore a dark blue tux, Dario  wore a white tux and as always Lorenzo wore a black tux.
