As Eleanor stood before the mirror, adjusting her red tailored suit, she felt a surge of confidence. The vibrant color hugged her curves just right, making her feel both powerful and stylish. The black flats were a comfortable choice, allowing her to navigate the day with ease while still looking polished. She ran a brush through her hair, allowing the soft waves to cascade over her shoulders.

When she stepped out of her bedroom, the trio was already in the kitchen, their morning routine buzzing with energy. Roberto was pouring himself a cup of coffee, while Leonardo and Alejandro were engaged in a lighthearted debate about their favorite breakfast options. The sight of them filled her with warmth, a reminder of the supportive atmosphere they had created together.

“Good morning, gorgeous,” Alejandro said, his eyes sparkling as he took in her appearance. “That suit looks incredible on you.”

“Thanks!” Eleanor replied, a blush creeping into her cheeks as she met his gaze. “I figured I’d wear something a bit bold today.”

Roberto turned, his playful grin making her heart flutter. “Bold is definitely your style, Eleanor. You’re going to turn heads at the office, and I’m not just talking about Blake.”

“Maybe I should have worn something more subdued,” she teased back, playfully raising an eyebrow.

Leonardo chuckled, shaking his head. “Not a chance. You’ll own that room, just like you own our hearts.”

Eleanor felt a flutter in her chest, their words wrapping around her like a warm embrace. The camaraderie they shared made her feel cherished and secure, even as the lingering anxiety about Stephen’s messages clouded her thoughts.

As they gathered their things to head out, Eleanor felt a sense of unity with the trio. Despite the challenges they faced, the bond they were forging was growing stronger with each passing day.

“Ready to conquer the day?” Alejandro asked, holding the door open for her.

“Always,” Eleanor replied, stepping through with her head held high. Together, they walked out into the morning light, prepared to tackle whatever the day had in store.

As Eleanor and her trio walked into the office, the atmosphere shifted palpably. Colleagues turned their heads in astonishment, unable to hide their surprise at the sight of not just Eleanor, but the powerful presence of her three companions—Leonardo, Alejandro, and Roberto.

The office was usually a hub of seriousness, but today, it buzzed with an undercurrent of disbelief and intrigue. Whispers traveled through the room, punctuated by gasps and stifled laughter.

“Is that Eleanor?” someone whispered, eyeing her tailored red suit that hugged her curves perfectly. “And those men… are they really who I think they are?”

Eleanor felt the weight of curious gazes upon her, but she was undeterred. Today was different; she was not just an employee, but the woman embraced by three formidable Mafia leaders, each of whom exuded charisma and confidence. Their presence transformed her from a mere office worker into a figure of intrigue and admiration.

As they approached the elevator, a hush fell over the floor. Conversations stuttered to a halt as the trio exchanged easy banter with Eleanor, their laughter echoing through the space. The bosses and Mafia leaders were typically stoic figures, known for their seriousness and authority, yet here they were, radiating an aura of contentment as they surrounded her.

“Who knew our bosses had such a soft spot?” one coworker remarked, glancing toward Leonardo, who had an arm casually draped around Eleanor’s shoulders.

“Seriously,” another added, smirking. “What’s their secret? Maybe we should all get a ‘trio’ to lighten up the office.”

Eleanor caught sight of a few surprised faces among her colleagues, particularly those who had doubted her capabilities in the past. The way Leonardo whispered something in her ear, causing her to laugh, made it clear that she was now firmly in their circle, and they were proud of it.
