I didn't expect so many people to be here, I can feel the anxiety building up inside of me, Papa spots Ally and I and excuses himself from the people he was speaking to before approaching us.

"полевой цветок (wildflower), you look absolutely stunning" He smiles whilst taking my hand and spinning me around, "Thank you Papa" I reply once I'm facing him again, "Hey, what about me?" Ally pouts, "You look the same as you always do" Papa rolls his eyes, oh he's feisty tonight.

Ally mutters something under his breath as he leaves us and heads towards the bar, Papa links his arm with mine and starts walking towards a group of men "I want to introduce you to some people" He smiles.

He wasn't lying when he said he wanted to introduce me to people, I'm pretty sure I've spoken to every single person in this damn house, but the whole time I couldn't stop myself from looking for the one person I actually wanted to speak with, losing hope I accept the fact that he isn't showing up, it's been almost 3 hours since the party started.

Niki grabs onto my elbow and drags me away from the group of people Papa is in mid-conversation with, "This party's a drag huh?" He winks, I nod my head in agreement, "It's too fancy" I admit, everyone was acting so proper and professional, all the jokes they told were too sophisticated for me to understand, all they did was talk money and business, yawn.

"Ally and I are heading out to the club, you want to come?" He nudges me with a cheeky smile, I remember the fierce hangover I felt this morning "Nope, don't feel like waking up on death's door tomorrow morning, you two have fun though" I smile, he doesn't seem to like the answer but accepts it none the less, "Be careful, there's a bunch of creepy old bastards in here alright?" Ally speaks popping up out of nowhere, I roll my eyes at them "I'll be fine, Papa is here and there's also security" I reassure them, they both kiss my head and say goodbye before walking out the front door.

I turn back and look over the crowd trying to find Papa so I can at least follow him around like a lost puppy, I spot him in the distance but someone stops me from walking as soon as I take a step, I turn and notice its Reggie, at least I know him.

"Hey Reggie" I smile turning to face him fully, "So how long have you been fucking Cillian?" He asks cocking his eyebrows up, I almost choke on my spit at the statement, "What are you even talking about?"

"Oh come on princess, you're obviously the reason he keeps winning and getting contracts. You're fucking him and he's reaping the benefits" He chuckles, I shake my head in disbelief at his words "You are so wrong" I scoff.

"So why didn't your father offer me one? Cillian and I are both on the same fighting level but as soon as you enter the picture I'm dropped from the fights" He grits through his teeth, I scrunch my eyebrows together in confusion, he's pissed at me, because he didn't get a new contract?
