I stared at the beautiful dress in front of me in pure awe.

The colour was so unique and so emerald that I felt as if I had the gem in front of me and yet, I didn't know when Luna asked to take my measurements she would order this. I made a note to myself to thank her.

Carefully, I placed it on my closet in hopes not to accidentally ruin it before tomorrow's evening but before I placed it in front of me and glanced myself in the mirror and smiled. Finally, I put it inside and plopped on bed.

The image of Alessandro and the little girl- Issabella if I recalled - was in my head. The girl seemed really young and the fact that he had a  heart to take care of her. Especially, judging by the way he holding her she was very comfortable with him so she must have known him.

I felt so bad about the little girl because if she had Alessandro as a brother, half or not, she must be very unlucky. But I will make sure that tomorrow, I try to accompany her a little.

The event was scheduled at 10:00pm tonight. I decided tell Alessandro to train so I could be in shape for the mission tonight. I made sure that the minute I woke up I had left my flash drive on my desk so I wouldn't have to search for it later.

Meanwhile, I was on a call with Lauren. It had been such a long time since I talked to her and she apparently, had news to share.

"Well, I don't know how to feel anymore. My feelings are so messed up that I feel like jumping off a waterfall."

That came from Lauren as I laughed

"I get it, but I thought you liked him? Dante is a very good man"

I could practically see Lauren roll her eyes

"Yeah yeah, sure. Just because he kissed me doesn't mean anything. I took a break from the internship and said I was sick and well, to be honest.."

I smiled, a teasing smile

"You miss him!"

I said as the guards turned their head to look at me because of my tone. I cleared my throat and walked forward. Apparently, Lauren couldn't fall in love with the person she was guarding, but what happened was that he did and even though she didn't admit it, so did she. She just always tried to escape her feelings, kind of like Alessandro.

"No, I simply don't want my assignment dead"

Came her voice through the phone.

Finally, I reached the room and stepped inside.

"Alright, I have to go I hage training."

Lauren whistled

"Can you get me a shirtless Alessandro pic, please?"
