Ariella's pov...

I look around in my pink mask as I noticed people's gaze which were partially men and a few glance from the women as I make my way back.
There I see Irene talking with a guy as she laughs brightly, quickly walking to her as she's the only one I know around me.
"Hey where were you" she asks
"With Axel" I tell her as she shrugs and keeps on talking with the man
"Tony meet my soon to be sister-in-law" she says looking at me.
"Oh hi miss" he says.
"Hi" I answer as he gives a smile and continue chatting with Irene.
"Gotta go now catch up with you later" he says and winks at me before going.
What the hell is wrong with these men I ask myself.
"Come on girl let's get a drink" Irene says and drag me to the bar counter.
"But Axel said to stay there until he comes and gets us" I say which she shrugs.
"There's nothing harmful here princess and besides you have a knight willing to protect you at all cost" she says which is damn right as I know Axel would do anything to protect me.
After hearing her words, I ease up a bit.
"I can't tolerate alcohol " I tell her.
"Chill when you get drunk I'll send you home personally " she says dramatically.
"Axel is going to get angry at me hell no I'm I drinking that" I say as I look at the vodka shot Irene just took as she scrunch her face.
"Just try a little " she says trying to persuade me.
"No it's a no" I tell her which she gives up and take another shot.
"So are you just going to sit there and watch me drink by myself?" She asks.
"Um, what do you expect me to do?" I ask.
"Ok please give her something less alcoholic " she tells the bartender.
Then he took a bottle of a Champaign and pour it for me.
"Thanks" I thank him as I take sips of my drink. Looking at Irene who has already taken four shots of it.
"M~more" she tells him to which I object as I can see she's getting drunk.
"No that's enough Irene" I tell her as I drag her from the chair. Picking up my drink I walk with her to our original table.
I look around hoping to get a glimpse of my beloved. But I still don't see him.
"Dante!" Irene screams but I cover her mouth.
"Shut it he's not here" I tell her as she nods in understanding.

After sometime I got the urge to pee as  I find my way to the washroom. As I talk I could see gazes of people on me as if they were catching a prey.
Its going to be fine I tell myself
Upon arriving at the washroom I quickly do my thing as I hurry up back to the party grounds....

Happy new month...

Lot's of love xoxo...
