It's been a week now since the meeting and today falls on the day of the French family ball. To say I'm excited is an understatement. I've always wanted to attend these Balls, I've heard a lot about them mostly bad stuff but oh well.

"Anna please slow down" My aunt Ella states as she rushes to catch up with me.

"Yes girl please, Amias and I are struggling to keep up" My aunt Grace states with Amias on her hip.

Myself, Aunt Grace, and Aunt ella are currently in a very fancy mall, looking for a dress for me and a suit for Amias. It's only my family and uncle Angelo and his children attending. The rest of my family are back in Italy however my aunties insisted on helping me dress.

"Times running out, we're nearly there" I say quickly as we turn around a corner reaching the fancy shop.

"We've got 10 hours Ari calm down" Aunt Ella huffs before placing Amias down from her hip. The ball starts at 8, surprisingly early.

We all walk into the fancy shop to be greeted by a tall brunette woman with bright red lipstick. "My darlings how lovely to see you again" she beams walking up to my aunties and giving them a hug.

After she pulls out the hug she turns to me and starts examining me like a damn math equation. "And who is this beautiful lady and handsome little prince" she asks.

"This is my niece Arianna and nephew Amias" Aunt Grace answers ruffling Amias hair as he stands behind her leg cautiously. He doesn't like new people.

"Well Arianna my name is Martha, what are you looking for today" She asks showing her glowing white teeth. Damn.

"A dress fit for a ball would go well" I answer taking my phone out and opening Pinterest. Best app ever.

"Got any colour in mind" she utters taking out a small notepad.

"Not particularly" I answer to which she scribbles down her on her notepad. She then crouches down to Amias who continues to stare at her intensely.

"And for you little man, what colour suit would you like" Martha asks Amias who I can tell is trying extra hard to understand what she's saying. He's been learning English at kindergarten recently.

"blue, blue" he yells after a while making us all chuckle. "Very well then, let's get going"

The shopping went well. After what felt like 12 hours Grace and Ella decided on a dress and suit for myself and Amias. He looks so cute I can't wait for everyone to see him.

"Are you nervous" Malakai asks his eyes focused on the console game in front of him.

"Why would I be nervous" I respond focused on the task at hand which is killing Kai, in the game of course.

"Well aren't the Russians supposed to gate crash the ball, and it's your first time being introduced as dad's daughter in front of everyone" Kai replies sounding mature for once.
